One of the biggest problems I find when trying to find a good night cream is they are using very rich and cause my skin to have a breakdown followed by a course of breakouts. Combination skin needs the best of both worlds, the hydration for dry areas and a balanced moisture for the oily areas, add a bunch of wrinkles to the mixture and you can see where my headache begins.
Nivea Cellular Anti-Age Skin Rejuvenation Night Cream (quite a mouthful!) has been brilliant! it has a thick white cream that is similar to their basic Nivea Cream which is amazing too for all over the body, but it manages to absorb quickly into the skin almost before I get a chance to properly massage it in, so it doesn't go like an oil slick over my skin.
After just a couple of weeks of continued use I found that I was waking up to plumper, brighter looking skin, the fine lines have all but gone and I also have not had a single breakout in the entire time of use. Or have I woken up to areas of oily patches which has happened with more heavier night creams.
Just off to repurchase this today with my weekly groceries as my pot is now showing its bottom and I have found my one true night cream. My skin has been amazing and I don't want to jinx it with any new cream right now.
On a recent trip to farmers I saw this and instantly I had all the memories of growing up with the Nivea cream that was in the blue tub. I think everyone remembers that cream for how thick it was and the strong Nivea scent. This winter weather has been drying my skin out like mad so I thought i would try out this Nivea night cream.
The dark blue tub is simple with the outside of the lid silver which makes it stand out a bit. I remove foil seal and you can Instantly smell the trademark Nivea scent its nice, it's refreshing not over powering. I scoop some out (this is a pet hate) and slather a good amount on my face. And the whole lot absorbs into my skin and I was left with no residue I was pleasantly surprised how good it felt on my skin I do massage it under my eyes moving in small circular motions going from the corner of my eyes to the outer of my eyes. Now... I don't know if it's the massaging under my eyes or the cream but in 1 week I noticed a huge difference to the appearance of my under eye circles.
This is a thick and rich cream but I have had no break outs since using it and my skin has made a huge turn around. It's not excessively dry anymore and I wake up with nice hydrated skin that feels so soft. I really like this for the turn around it has made to my skin and so quickly. I haven't noticed any difference to the fine lines though but I am ever hopeful. I am nearly at the end of the jar and I will buy more this week I will be interested to see how I get on with it come summer time.
