Nivea Creme

Two long term success stories

Posted by Huma Nawaz on 22nd Apr 2014

My mother recommended this product to me because I have very dry peeling skin. I was very very very skeptical because the minute I put it on, I honestly hated it. It was very thick and sticky and left my face looking oily. But never-the-less, it also left it moisturized. But keep listening! [To take away the oily skin effect, you have to put powder. Any kind will do.]

That same day, two of my friends asked me if I did something different bc I "look different." And they couldn't figure it out. They just said "you look prettier." So I continued to use it.

Couple months later my mom tells me a story about a 90 something y/o woman who looked 70ish. They jokingly asked her what her secret to youthful looking skin was and she said "Nivea." She said she's been using it all her life. I also noticed my own mom, who's been using it she was 16. I have to say my mother looks 10 years younger. She's 50 now, but looks to be early 40.

So yeah, if you want to look 10-20 years younger in the future, I would definitely recommend this product bc of all it's success stories. I'm personally using the Nivea light because it isn't sticky at all. But I have to say, I don't think Nivea light will have the same long term moisturizing effects as the original Nivea. I believe the oilier and thicker it is, the better it is for your skin in the long run.
