Nivea Skin Firming Lotion with Q10

Pros: Nice consistency, very moisturizing
Cons: Not much improvement in skin firmness

A body lotion that also creates firmer skin? Okay, I'm game! I had to give this product a try.

Here's what Nivea claims for this body lotion:

"Discover Nivea Body Skin Firming Lotion with Q10. This new generation of firming...

Pros: It is so moisturizing it feels greasy (That's not a pro!) It is inexpensive?
Cons: Doesn't smell nice, doesn't firm, I don't like it as a moisturizer.

Pros: Provides good moisture, Just as cheap as the original.
Cons: Contains some harsh ingredients, Bottle isn't as generous as the original.

I have used Nivea's Original Body Lotion on my body for many years now, so when the Q10 body formula came out it immediately got my attention. Shaving, waxing, sun exposure, etc etc. can all cause my body to become dry, irritated and just 'un...

Pros: Non-greasy. It works!
Cons: A little bit does not go a long way, alas.

Six years ago, I was on some thyroid-retarding anti-depressants that packed 95 pounds onto my midget frame. Now that I've long been back to my svelte self, it's time I attacked my stretch marks. So I addressed our resident amatuer dermatologist, Rachel ...

Pros: Provides noticeably firmer skin.
Cons: Can me more costly than other drug store brand lotions.

With medium toned skin such as mine, I'm constantly on the lookout for emollient lotions to banish any trace of the dread "ash" look. As a former dancer, I'm also conscious of my legs' appearance. When I tried Nivea's lotion, I saw dramatic moisture...

Pros: Does what it claims, makes skin very soft and smooth
Cons: Fragrance is not my favorite

Nivea Skin Firming Cream does the job!
I started using this about 2 months before I went to the beach, thinking that it might take awhile to see any results, but after 2 weeks, I could really tell a difference.

I mostly use this cream on...

Pros: Firmed, great moisturization.
Cons: Smell is overpowering

The bottle states "...use twice daily in combination with a HEALTY LIFESTYLE" (emphasis mine).

They're not kidding!

Within two weeks I noticed significant firming, and even my husband commented on it. But I did not do this sitting...

Pros: moisterizes just right without that greasy feeling
Cons: takes a long time for firming to really work therefore can be expensive

I first saw Nivea's skin firming lotion in an ad in a magazine. This ad was very attracting, as it showed a girl bending down with really nice, smooth and firm skin.
A few years back I had lost about 20- 25 pounds but gained in sagging skin...

Pros: Makes skin very soft
Cons: None

I had seen Nivea Q10 firming body lotion advertised in magazines such as Weight Watchers, and other beauty magazines, so I thought I would give it a try. I love the scent of the product, it is a very fresh, clean scent. I have been using this product...

Pros: Really works
Cons: None

Two small children, work part-time, run a household.... I barely have time to brush my teeth, much less focus on keeping my skin looking good.

But this stuff really works. Not only did it help firm up the last of my post-pregnancy lumps, but...

Pros: REALLY works!!!!
Cons: none

After trying many products in the past to assist me in firming my body, finally I stumbled upon this one. I have tried products with elastin, natural products- I even fell for the "we keep our promises" ROC when it first came out. That one cost me 19.99...

Pros: Really DOES firm-and in less than a week! Though it says 2 weeks.
Cons: YIKES! I got a rash!!!!!!!!

But I LOVE this lotion! Ladies, I wrote a review for Avon's toning cream that for $15 a tube, didn' ...

Pros: Isn't very expensive for my purposes and I can apply makeup within minutes of using.
Cons: Sorry, can't think of anything wrong with the product

I am 80 years young and have used this product for the past 4 or 5 years on my face, not on my body. When I wake up and look at myself in the mirror (eek!!) my eyelids are a little droopy but just a drop smoothed around my eyes works within minutes to tighten the skin. After washing my face I apply the lotion and I can feel it tightening the facial tissues. People don't believe me when I tell them my age or that I haven't had botox or a face lift. Of course, I have some wrinkles but not what one would expect at my age.
I don't have jowls or crepy skin and smooth the lotion on my neck and chest also. The rest of my body is moisturized with glycerin based products that aren't very expensive.

Pros: none
Cons: obviously the rash was a con

After using Nivea Skin Firming Lotion with Q10 for a few days, I developed an itchy red rash on my sides and stomach and little red dots on my arms and legs. So, as for the firming effect, I didn't get to use it long enough to find out. Needles to say, I won't be putting any more on. I also didn't like the scent, kind of sickly after a while. And....after letting it dry, I got dressed and felt sticky. Not something I will buy again.

Pros: Helps firm skin, thin lotion spreads a long way.
Cons: May not produce drastic results, but does help.

I used this product to help reduce the appearance of minor cellulite in my thighs and sides, and after just 2 weeks I have noticed a difference; not completely gone in my thighs, but it looks a lot better. Hey, this may not make everyone look as toned as Jenna Jameson, but how can anyone rely totally on a lotion?? If you're really so damn fat get to the gym to get toned. However, the use of this product will help minor problems after only 2 weeks of use. I'm sure that the longer it's used and with exercise or healthier eating, it will dramatically improve firmness.
