Mmmm, schminky

Advantages: Smooth, slinky
Disadvantages: Pricey

I bought a bottle of Nivea Firming Lotion Q10 a couple of months ago as I had loads of points on my Boots Advantage Card and felt like treating myself. It cost me 499 points (that’s £4.99 in real money) for 200ml, I’m sure you can get it much cheaper from places other than Boots as I think this is pretty extortionate for body lotion, when you can get shops own stuff for £3.00 or less and it’s all the same really isn’t it?... ...
...screw top lid and the Nivea Body logo in a dark blue square. The rest of the bottle writing is navy and generally quite classy looking, reminiscent of a Marks & Spencers range and of course the design is at least comparable with the rest of the Nivea range design. So nothing new there then? Well the ingredients may be a little different, however, as per the apparently revised Ciao directive (thanks Ken the Mad Cabbie for confirming that), you’re ...

Nivea and you've done

Advantages: makes your skin smoother, softer and it lasts for long
Disadvantages: none I can think of

Nivea lotion wasn’t my kind of subject for writing an opinion as quite a few already have brought into light all the good and the bad points (if any!) there are to say but I thought it won’t hurt to add my opinion with all the others as Nivea skin firm lotion it is really good product which makes it worth it paying the extra pennies. My family have always used Nivea for almost every part for the body you could use a body lotion at. For the hands, ...
...days there was only one Nivea product that we were familiar with and that was the metal blue tubes or boxes like, in small (for your handbag), medium and large size. But now days there is a range of products from the familiar body lotions to facial creams, anti-wrinkle and body sprays…and I must admit I have tried almost everything…with no complaints! But from this endless list it is their body firming lotion that I use on a daily basis for many ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

How Firm am I

Advantages: Smells great, Skin does seem firmer
Disadvantages: Price

...Superdrug, marching straight to the Nivea section I quickly shrunk away when I seen the price for this little gem was £5.89 for 200ml. But I still wanted it, so I headed off to Boots but alas still nearly £6.00 for 200ml, just buy it I hear you say, but to be honest 200ml wouldn't last me long as an everday body moisturiers and at nearly £6.00 a pop it would be relegated to a now and again treat. But then I had myself a brainwave, not easy when ...
...The bottle is a standard Nivea bottle white with a blue flip top lid. It claims to be able to: * Increase elasticity and improve skin tone * Smooth and improve skin structure * Provide long lasting moisture * Light and easily absorbed This is due to a coenzyme in the product called Q10, being a bit of a nerd at time I looked into this so called enzyme and found out that it is one which we have naturally in our bodies but which loses i5's potency ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

Firm skin in a bottle

Advantages: moisturises well and firms skin
Disadvantages: Strong smell, quite expensive

I was first tempted to use this when the Sun came out, knowing bikinis and swimsuits would soon be coming out of the wardrobe I decided to try this as a quick fix on my skin. The Price --------- It is an expensive moisturiser but in the line of firming products you can buy its about average, around £5 for 200ml. If you search around you can find it cheaper elsewhere. The first time I tried it was as a free sample, ths encouraged me to buy more ...
...Packaging ------------- It comes in a tasteful white and blue bottle, It looks like a moisturiser. It has a flip up cap and you squeeze it (like ketchup) to get the product out. It also contains Q10 plus which is the firming complex, its all explained on the bottle. The Product ----------- This product has a strong perfumed smell. The smell reminds me of sun cream a little and it does last a few hours, so if you don't like the smell this can ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

From jelly to ,erm, not in one easy step

Advantages: Does its job
Disadvantages: Quite expensive

Yes I'm the first to admit that my skin is anything from perfect. A lot of people will disagree with me as I'm lucky enough to have naturally bronzed looking skin and I look toned even though I'm not. Oh if those people only knew... See the truth is that my skin is dry and feels like jelly when its touched (OK, I exagerate slightly but its just so you get my point). Anyway, when I first saw an advery for this new skin firming cream I though "great!" ...
...horrified to discover that it was almost £5 for a 200ml bottle. Which to be honest seemed completely useless to me as I need to moisturise twice a day at least. I thought that that bottle wouldn't even last a week. So I didn't buy it. A few weeks later when shopping in a Supasave store I notcied the same bottle for only £1.99. Bargain! So I bought a bottle to see if it worked. I used it the next day after taking a shower and noticed imediately that ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

Got rid of cellulite in a few months...

Advantages: practically no cellulite, no dry skin
Disadvantages: expensive (cos I use lots), no sunscreen, doesn't help stretch marks

...part. As prior to using Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser I used Baby Oil, which was absorbed much easier, and required little massaging into the skin. The only really dissapointing thing, after using the product for around a year now, is that it hasn't helped with my stretch marks in the slighest (not that it claims to, but it would be nice). ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

Not noticeably firmer skin

Advantages: Mouisturises
Disadvantages: does not firm

I am a fan of Nivea alongside my other products as I think it is a reasonable price and quite a good product normally. I bought this as I regularly use Nivea Tinted Moisturiser which is about £5.95 but this came in a set with it for the same price so I thought why not. The bottle is 200ml and you get a lot out of it. The lotion is very runny and has a slight aroma to it, which is pleasant. Do not squeeze it out hard as you end up with lots on your ...
...it sinks into your skin while you are rubbing it, it does moisturise the skin very well, but I have not seen evidence of firming. I tend to use it on my bottom, breast and stomach just to keep the skin moisturised as us womrn have to keep ourselves looking nice don't we.. It does contain vitamin E which protects the skin tone so I think that is a good thing ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

nice and efficient body toner

Advantages: tones and smoothes skin, no greasy feeling
Disadvantages: might be a little pricey

I am using this for almost half a year and decided it is quite a product! It does make my body skin softer and nice to touch, without being heavy or greasy - which is great for my combination skin (I have dry patches especially on my legs as well as oilier areas concentrated on my back). The product has a fluid, almost runny consistency, and is absorbed very fast, therefore I'm loving it for the morning showers, when I dont have time to wait for ...
...the firming aspect, I truly believe it is helpful if used daily (I do, and actually my skin is much better on firming issues and so much smoother and even). If you chose to use it irregularly you will not see much else than a regular, quality skin lotion but no effects in terms of firming. However, even with daily use, dont expect miracles! I heard some bad reviews for this product because people were expecting it to help with cellulite issues. This ...

Firm up with Nivea

Advantages: A little goes a long way
Disadvantages: none

...Firming Complex Body Moisturiser by Nivea is my number one creme that I use, it really does work aswell! The best thing about this creme is that a little goes a long way, and it lasts forever! You really do notice a difference in your skin after using it several times, things will start getting firmer and you will not be disappointed! It is good quality and is definately worth every penny! You can use it anywhere externally on your body, or just ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

It is definitely worth trying this one!!

Advantages: makes your skin smoother
Disadvantages: none that are worth mentioning

Nivea firming lotion is a cream that suppose to “improve your skin tone and increase elasticity”. It promises to do so after 3 weeks. I have been using the cream for about 2 months now. Well, I have to say my skin does feel nicer (softer and smoother), but I am not convinced that it made my skin any firmer. It is also very reasonably priced (about £4 I think), especially in comparison with other creams promising the same benefits. However, I think ...

Review of Nivea Skin Firming Complex Body Moisturiser

What is it meant to do again

Advantages: Good for skin softness
Disadvantages: Doesnt seem to do what it says

I have recently lost a couple of stone, and I bought this product to firm up the skin on my belly, where I used to be a little larger than I was. I paid £6.75 for it from Tesco. I noticed straight away that it was a nice texture, not too thick, easily rubbed into skin, yet not too watery. It smelt nice too. Immediately it leaves the skin feeling moisturized, and stays feeling that way for the whole day, yet, I have been using it for about 2 months ...
