My Holy Grail.

To set the scene:

S has the most incredible skin. No wrinkles, no blemishes, no scars - perfection.

Seeing he is 10 years older than I am, I tried to tell my self that when he was 21 he had crap skin also. Turns out he has always had amazing skin. Bastard.

I saw him slathering on this thick Nivea Creme and was appalled. I didn't see how he could put it on his face!

He told me to just give it one try, but I kept saying that it would block my pores, give my more pimples, make me greasy etc etc etc.

He finally won, and I put it on.

The next day, my face was so smooth and glowing.

I have not looked back.

I prefer to use this as a night cream as it can be quite shiny for the first 20 minutes after application, but when I get up early enough in the morning to put it on, my skin feels protected against the heater/aircon all day.

Pros:

Cheap

Cute Tin
Effective

Has not broken me out

Makes my skin glow

Cons:

Thick

Smell (goes away after application)

Appears shiny

I really do love this and I have sensitive acne prone skin, so never thought it would be suitable for my skin.
