NIVEA Cellular Hyaluron Filler Day Cream Review

A little certainly goes a long way! I've been using this for about a week and it doesn't look like it.

I found it has reduced my lines, even some of the deeper ones don't look as bad now. Pleasant fragrance and not too greasy which is great for me as I am prone to breakouts with a lot of products because of their over-greasiness but have not had the problem with this product. Also works great under foundation.

Will definitely keep using it!

My first impression – the packaging design was smart while still keeping the traditional Nivea insignia (blue and white). The day cream pottle was sealed with foil which is good practice to reduce tampering and less likely that a product will be used as a tester in the shop (people do this!). When I lifted the foil to open it, it was a nice surprise to smell the familiar fragrance of Nivea that I remember from my teenage years; even after a long number of years it still smelt the same.

Upon the first application, my skin tingled which I liked, and although it is a day cream it felt quite heavy and more like a night cream. The next day I used less and the cream absorbed easily into my skin, so less is best. After using the product for almost six weeks, I have found my skin is less dry and more smooth and silky as the product description said it would. I also found that my skin visually looked different and the pores in my skin were less noticeable.

The product claims to reduce wrinkles but I could not see a dramatic difference to the wrinkles around my eye area (crow’s feet) and jawline/neck area because they are quite deep and defined. I did notice some difference around my mouth and upper lip area which normally would have fine wrinkle lines.

Overall I was quite pleased with the Nivea Cellular Anti-age Skin Rejuvenation Day Cream, as it was pleasant to use, did not cause any irritation to my skin and to a certain degree did what it said it would do. The difference was subtle but possibly with prolonged use the effect may be more noticeable. The price is also very reasonable, especially as you only need to use a small amount each time which makes it last for a long time.

I was pleased to get the chance to have a go and trail this cream. For many years Nivea (in the blue tub) was a staple in my face care regime. Yep, before all the mainstream ‘posh’ stuff arrived with fancy ingredients. I used to love opening my tub and smelling that Nivea smell! Okay so let’s look at the claims first.. • Reduces fine lines and wrinkles – Not on me! • Improves skin's firmness and renewal – Not on me! I felt I went backwards here, as did my hubby • Skin is replenished with intense moisture – it was yummy when it first went on however the feeling did not last page 30 minutes. I need an all dayer • Leaves skin feeling smooth and silky – as above!

Well I worked with the cream for a full two weeks before having to reintroduce my rosehip oil. I’m not sure what is classed as ‘aging’ now haha or how old you have to be to have that ‘aging’ skin – I’m 45 with excellent skin which I out down to having been taught to use a good regime morning and night – Grandma and Mum insisted haha

I found the Nivea cream lacking for me – however I would and have already, recommend it to others who are just starting out on a good face regime – just reaching that age where they know they need to make adjustments. If used with the accompanying products I do believe it will do the trick.

I was given a pot of this. I'm really happy with spf creams as I'm a sunscreen nut. The texture is thicker than a gel but it's still really light, like borderline between a lotion and cream. Once applied it sinks right into my skin and absorbs pretty quickly. I normally have combination skin but with the onset of winter my skin has gotten much drier. This moisturizer provides a bit of hydration but it still feels really light on the skin. On days when my skin is really feeling dry I have to apply another layer which is probably a good thing since you're supposed to apply plenty of spf right? The scent is the light signature Nivea scent. Now for the cons. The minute I apply this and the lovely feel of my skin getting hydrated is ruined by my eyes stinging and watering and it's not like I didn't follow the instructions and applied this to my eye area. Stinging eyes are a big con for me, especially since there are other spf moisturizers for about the same price, like my favorite Oasis spf moisturizers that I can actually apply to my eye area (even though it isn't recommended for your eye area) and they don't sting. The other con for me is that it only carries an spf of 15, which is the minimum and I prefer a higher spf. The ingredients are water, glycerin, ethylhexyl salicylate, cetearyl alcohol, dimethicone, alcohol denat, glyceryl stearate SE, butyl methoxydibenzoylmethane, methylpropanediol, octocrylene, polymethlsilsesquioxane, shea butter, cetyl alcohol, ethylhexyl stearate, sodium phenylbenzimidazole sulfonate, magnolia extract, creatine, 1-methylhydantoin-2-Imide, hylauronic acid, tapioca starch, xanthan gum, acrylates/C10-30 aclkyl acrylate crosspolymer, trisodium edta, ethylhexylglycerin, phenoxyethanol, limonene, linalool, citronellol, benzyl alcohol, geraniol, alpha-isomethyllonone and parfum. So while those it does advertise some really good active ingredients, the good stuff is really buffered with a bunch of cheaper silicones and fillers so it's unlikely to do anything much long term for me anyways. Lastly, just a personal preference, I prefer a tube or pump to a pot because it's more sanitary. So when this finishes I probably won't be repurchasing.

I'm always a bit skeptical about "anti-ageing" products... I think, yeah right... but I am happy to say that I have been pleasantly surprised by Nivea Cellular Anti-Age Facial Day cream.

I found the cream to glide over the skin effortlessly and I only had to use a little to cover my whole face, making it economical to use. My skin felt refreshed after using it and it was non-greasy, so easy to apply make-up over the top. It has a pleasant, mild scent that is not too over-powering.

The product promises to reduce wrinkles and improve skin renewal, and I would say after several weeks of using it that it fairly much delivers on that promise. Certainly the fine lines have improved. I have a couple of deep wrinkles that still need some work though, and I think that will improve with time. I also think that using the night cream and the eye cream that is also in the range may have made an even more dramatic difference. I was overall really happy with the product though.

Price wise, this product is RRP $27.99 at my local supermarket and I think that represents really good value for money.

The packaging is appropriate, it's easily recognisable, it's clear, and it's informative.

I have only been using the product for a few weeks, but so far I am happy with how it makes my skin feel, how it moisturisers and how I can put make-up etc on after I have used it.

I would definitely recommend it to a friend.
