NIVEA Q10 Plus Anti-Wrinkle CC Cream SPF15

Isn't it great when you discover a product that is exceptionally good, and it's under 1/2 the price of what you pay for a similar product from an elite brand. I first discovered how amazing a great CC Cream is via Clinique's version - but it is a little on the pricey side. So I have been thrilled to discover this CC Cream from NIvea, which is very similar in texture, results and appearance on my skin for a lot less money. Got to love a bargain beauty buy. The CC Cream comes in a 50mls size tube with fairly plain packaging.  It includes both Nivea's Q10 skincare benefits and SPF15 protection, it's a true multi-tasker. The cream is a light beige colour, which really works well for my skintone.  I apply it and there is no evidence I've applied anything, except that my skin has a radiant glow and my facial redness is significantly reduced. I love the texture and how it feels on my skin, it's a beautifully hydrating product. This is one of my favourite beauty finds in recent years - I'd give this 10 stars if I could, it's that good.  Very highly recommended.

My weekend Go-to Product. When I am sick of the weekday face - this is the perfect way to feel 'together' on a weekend. The light and subtle smelling cream goes on like a dream. It is quickly absorbed and leaves skin looking glowing and even.  The SPF is enough to keep my skin protected and the light moisturiser keeps me hydrated.  I would absolutely recommend this product, I really love it. 

I've been using this CC cream for a while, and I quite like it! This comes in a white tube with blue lettering, and a screw cap. For around $20, you get 50ml of product. It seems to come in only one shade, which is pretty decent for my Asian skin, and as far as coverage goes, it's sheer to medium on me, which is exactly how I like it. For your reference, I tend to be about a MAC NC 30. I have found this to blend in quite well mostly, but there are a couple of face moisturisers this doesn't work very well with, so make sure you do a bit of a trial run before you take it on the road. This has quite a dewy finish, and can also be powdered down if you prefer a matte look with a bit of glow. This has SPF 15 in it, and the upside of this is that it doesn't leave your skin feeling caked on and unpleasant, as it's meant to be hydrating. I wouldn't use this in place of a moisturiser, but instead, WITH a moisturiser. All in all, this is most appropriate for people who are seeking a light coverage with a dewy finish.

This CC cream is great for my sensitive skin, which flushes red and drives me crazy.  Thankfully,  this cream with its inbuilt Colour Correction gives a sheer finish, but manages to calm my natural redness so its not as apparent.  So that means this product is a winner for me.  I easily apply it using just my finger tips.  It glides on easily with no issues and it leaves me with a very natural look.  It has a slight scent which I find quite pleasant and it fades almost as soon as the cream is applied to the skin.  Contains SPF15. The packaging is plain and simple.  A 50 ml tube with a screw on lid.  Which means its an easy product to throw in your makeup bag when travelling and there will be no issues over breakages. This is a great product to keep on hand, easy to apply and gives a very natural look.
