NIVEA Q10 Power Replenishing Pearls Review

Nivea Q10 Plus Anti-wrinkle Serum Pearls,what an awesome name.comes in cool 40ml packaging with pump top.Great how you can see the little yellow pearls inside.It goes on smooth and melts straight into your skin,it's not greasy at all.Has a slight fragrance.skin feels smooth and fresh.

As a user of high end skincare (and we're talking an anti ageing moisturiser that costs over $150 per pop) I was somewhat sceptical about the claims for this. Could it live up to it's higher priced counterpart? I was eager to find out!

This product comes in a pump bottle which I like as you're not sticking your fingers in the jar. What initially looks like a label with graphics of wee yellow pearls, actually turns out to be the product itself. You pump out your product and you can actually squish the little balls in your hand. I've been using this product for 2 weeks now and I can honestly say that it gives my higher end product a run for it's money (and more). It absorbs quickly and I can definitely see a noticeable decrease in the wrinkles around my eyes and I can honestly say...my skin has never looked better!

The only downside for me is the fragrance, i'm not sure what it smells of but it's not my cup of tea at all. Nivea has such an iconic fragrance associated with it's original cream and its body lotions that i'm intrigued as to why they feel they need to move away from this into something else in the face care products..but hey..I can live with it for the results it delivers.

So the answer to the question of will I be trading in my $150 moisturiser for this? Hell yes!

I admit I was a bit skeptical about these 'pearls', and envisaged gritty bits being rubbed over my skin. I was wrong, while the pearls are not completely squished to resemble 'normal' lotion, they disperse and absorb easily, with no grittiness or residue.

I found four pumps of the lotion was enough to do my face, neck and cleavage (hate those cleavage wrinkles starting!) easily.

After two days I noticed my skin was softer, and after five days noticed the laughter lines around my eyes had improved. My husband even remarked that my skin 'had a bit of a glow' about it - he's your typical male with no interest in my skincare or makeup regime, so for him to notice it made me think this product was doing what it claimed and it wasn't just my wishful thinking while looking in the mirror!

If there's one downside it's the smell, which is oddly strong and reminded me of the face creams my nana used to keep that were well past their use-by date.

Overall I'm very happy with the results of this product, have already recommended it to friends and will definitely be purchasing it when my trial bottle runs out.

Love, love, love this product! It may look very unusual when you pump some into your hand, but it absorbs into the skin beautifully, within seconds,without any icky, sticky feeling on the skin. Cannot recommend highly enough!

I found this does as it says. It was of a light consistency which was quickly absorbed into the skin leaving it feel immediately softer & moisturized . I noticed it softened fine lines immediately & over time it helped reduce deeper lines I had, leaving my skin looking smoother,younger & refreshed. I would recommend this & I am going to keep using it

Smells lovely. Pretty pearls which come out in a moisturiser style. Quite fascinating! Skin feels smoother and I've been complemented. I don't look tired. It's non greasy and dries quickly. I look forward to using it regularly. Using it for the required time there was still a lot left in the 40ml container which I think is packaged lovely.

There was no way I wasn't going to try this product, it sounded amazing - and the price was around half that of other serums I've tried, so I was interested to see if it could live up to more expensive brands.

First of all the packaging is cute and functional. A solid plastic tube with pump that pushes product upwards as time goes on, so no waste and the ingredients are kept fresh. I really like that you can see the pearls encased in the gel and that you can see how much you've got left so you know when to buy some more. (And I will be buying some more.)

The product pumps out and the pearls kind of break, I then rub them together and apply all over my face (I use a whole pump for just my face.) The smell initially wasn't my favourite, but I've grown used to it and it doesn't bother me now, it also fades quickly once on the skin.

What amazed me initially about this was that my skin actually felt softer after using it. Usually I'll wake up after applying serum at night, have a shower and it feels like the benefits are washed away - in this case the smoothness remained and does so throughout the day after reapplying (I use it day and night). Not only is my skin feeling better it appears to have evened out a lot and looks fresher.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this, I had high hopes but having not used Nivea in the past I was a little nervous, turns out I had nothing to worry about. This serum is comparable with more expensive serums I've used and it's half the price. What's not to love?
