Hi All,
So I was in the market looking for a really good moisturizer and let me tell you I was very VERY close to spending $100 on a high end brand of facial moisturizer. Did I mention it was for a 1 ounce. Then I started doing some comparisons, and behold I came across the Nivea face cream. Now I have heard of the cream for years but never actually tried it. As quickly as I reviewed the brand I ordered it on Amazon. Now let me say the Nivea brand that I currently use is 'Made in Germany', apparently the brand sold in the US stores are 'Made in Mexico'. **I listed the ingredients for both 'Germany' vs. 'Mexico' below for comparison** The texture is completely different; the Germany Nivea has a more thick texture as opposed the 'Mexico" Nivea is more of a creamy substance. After using this product the next day my face completely rejuvenated. I also use this product on other dry areas like my elbows and feet. It is absolutely an amazing product; I highly recommend it.
