I am not entirely sure these two product are from the same line - did Nivea redo their packaging again? At least the claim to do pretty much the same thing so I thought it would be best to review them together.
Nivea Intense Repair Shampoo
Let's start with shampoo. I have been using this for a few months now but I bought it as a back up a long time ago so maybe the packaging has changed by now. This is not my favorite shampoo but I also do not dislike it. I wash may hair every other day and the Nivea Intense Repair Shampoo can keep up with that. However my hair does not look and feel as good as it does if I use other shampoos, for example the Dove Advanced Hair Series Pure Care Weightless Oil Shampoo. I feel as though if your hair is not as dry as mine this would work better for you. That's kind of contradicting the name 'intense repair' which I do not think fits this shampoo very well.
In conclusion this is a good shampoo for people with 'normal' hair but I would not necessarily recommend it as an 'intense repair' shampoo for people with damaged or dry hair.

Nivea Repair & Care Conditioner
The ends of my hair are dry but not necessarily damaged. That is why I use some kind of conditioner or hair mask almost every time I wash my hair. I have already found my holy grail hair mask ( Garnier fructies Hair Mask Oil Repair 3) but I am still looking for the perfect 'in-between' conditioner that maybe isn't as heavy but still does a good job moisturizing my hair because I do not want to use the same hair products on my hair every single day (in fear of my hair getting used to it and it not working anymore).
The Nivea Repair & Care Conditioner was a little too light for me. My hair was easier to brush through and I could definitely tell a difference in my hair after using this conditioner but it just did not moisturize my hair enough. This is evidently not the right conditioner for me but I know a lot of people that actually like lighter products for their hair. If your hair easily gets weight down by heavy hair masks or conditioners than maybe you should give this conditioner a try. (BTW I really like the consistency of this product - it is thick enough to actually stay in your hair when you apply it).
Over all these are both good products they just aren't for me.
What is your favorite shampoo & conditioner combination?
