I had never seen this product before and I can't believe I've been missing out! The first thing I noticed was the fragrance, which is really lovely. It's light and fresh and not too strong.

I've used the Nivea Q10 Firming Lotion before but never really noticed any difference if I'm honest. But this oil really and truly made my stretchmarks fade! My daughter is 8 months old and left a small collection of stretchmarks on my tummy (I used Bio-Oil religiously and the stretchmarks only appeared when baby "dropped" a couple of weeks before birth). I used the Nivea oil twice a day for 2 weeks and the marks faded from a darkish pink/red to a pale pink/silver and are a lot less noticeable now.

The packaging is great, it didn't leak at all (which I would worry about with an oil) A little goes a long way too and I still have three-quarters of a bottle left to use (I just used it on my belly mainly)

Overall I would highly recommend this product, and I'm very fussy about my cosmetics! Oh, and it's great on your legs just after shaving too, it left mine silky smooth!

Hi,

I was so excited when you pick me to try out your New Nivea Firming Body Oil Q10 plus. When it arrived 2 wks ago could wait to use it and see the results. I Loved the packaging but I think the bottle alone would be just as good withour the box. Good size bottle. I have always used bio oil. I had bi-lateral masectomy last year and had alot of scaring which I have always used bio oil on a regular basis. I really have to admit I just loved the Nivea body oil. I found when using it there was improvement with my scares. It was light on the skin and not half as thick as the Bio-oil. I always hated having to wait around for the bio oil to soak in but with the Nivea it was soaked in much quicker. I also used it all over my body and found there was a big difference in the moisturer levels on my skin. I love the Nivea range of products, as I find you get great products at such a reasonable price. This Oil is a fraction of the price of the Bio Oil and I will definitely continue to use Nivea firming body oil. Thanks

I have used this product for the last 2 weeks and found it great it really did make my thighs feel a lot firmer than usual i do a lot of walking anyway but since using it i really noticed the difference on my legs.It was great for moisturising my skin as ive dry skin but i think it would be a lot easier to put on my skin if it came in a spray bottle especially when you have a 3 yr old waiting for you to go play the spray would be a lot more convenient and not make your hands so oily.I loved the smell of it.I have used nivea products before and have always found them to be good and a resonable price and i think the 200ml bottle of body oil is a great size as its an oil i didn't have to use too much to put all over my skin so that size bottle would last me a long time.I will definitley continue to use this product as the stretch marks on my hips have lightened in colour since using it which is great and overall i really liked it and will definitly be recommending to people.

hi i was one of hte lucky women choosen to trial the nivea firming body oil Q10 I have found this product great easy to use I am a working mam of two children and usually dont have time in the morning for cream or oil for my body but i said i would make the extra effort seening as i was choosen. Well let me just say it is now and will be for a long time part of my routine. I loved it put it on straight after shower and by the time i had makeup on it had dried in. At first I thought it took ages to dry but soon found that it did not that the wonderful feeling on my skin was the oil. It did not go on my clothes or anything. I used it and watched particularily my upper arms which are flabby and have def felt and seen a difference to them also to my things i found the scent very light and my skin is so solf and looks lovely It will definetely be in my shopping basket from now on def will recommend it and have done so already to my friends

I used the NIVEA Firming Body Oil Q10 also most everyday for the past 2 weeks, I have used the Q10 hand cream before so was looking forward to trying this one. I used it on my tummy, and legs. My tummy is untoned and flabbyish after 3 pregnancies. THe result well on my tummy my strech marks do appear a little reduced and my skin is nice and soft, not too sure about the firmiing up though think i'll keep at it for another 2 weeks and see then. My legs defiently felt the benefit, They were very dry and are lovely soft silky and smooth, as are my feet.

i wasn't aware of the firming effects of the Nivea Q10 Firming Body Oil before but then again i'm not really a great creams person. But I think this one may have just converted me, not sure i'll use it every day but def a few times a week.

After using the product for two weeks, I have found my skin much softer, especially my hands just from applying it. I thought it would be really oily or greasy but didn't find my skin to be to greasy afterwards. I liked how a little bit of oil was all that was needed for most of my body and thought the small was great.

I didn't notice a substantial firming of my stomach and think my stretch marks are still pretty visible but saying that there isn't going to be a miracle cream that will take away the deep stretch marks a got while pregnant. Overall really liked a oil and will co RI ie to use.
Thanks!

Hi, Thanks for picking me to be part of the Nivea Firming body Oil Q10 Plus, the following are my findings:


I felt my skin was nice and soft after use, although it took ages for the oil to soak into my skin. But when it did, I felt my skin looked healthier.
I have had 2 daughters, and have numerous stretch marks on my abdomin and I would have to say that i have not seen any noticeble improvement in them while using the product, however, maybe with more continued use, there may be improvements in the future
I had never heard of the benefits of Avacodo oil and Coenzyme Q10 before the trial began.
I have used Nivea creams in the past, but discontinued use as I found the face cream particularly heavy for my skin.
I found the bottle a good size and I think it would have to be this size to get value for it as during the 2 week trial, i used around half the bottle. I dont think there is any need for the box though.
I hadn't realised that the Nivea Body Firming Q10 Oil was widely available in Supermarkets as well as Pharmacies. I will be looking out for the product in the future.
I will continue to use this product, and I probably will buy this product again, however I did find the drying time too long, so therefore during the week when getting the kids organised and getting out quickly in the morning i don't think its the product for me, but at the weekends when i have more time to take over myself then i will definately use it. And it smells really good

Before this trial I was unaware of Nivea Firming Body oil so i was delighted to be part of this trial. My first impression of the mainly white box was that it was clean and fresh, I then opened the box to see the lovely golden hue of the oil bottle i then thought the mainly white box no longer did this product justice. On opening the bottle i firstly noticed the lovely smell & even though I am pregnant and most smells make me feel voilently sick the Nivea oil did not offend me in any way. On application of the oil my skin felt soft, moisturised and glowing without feeling oily. I to use the oil for the following two weeks and there was a marked improvement in the look and feel of my skin. I will buy this product again and I am happy to recommend it to others.

Was delighted to be chosen as a tester. Thank you Mummy Pages

I have been using/ testing the NIVEA Firming Body OI suil Q10 Plus for two weeks now. I must admit that I do not religiously pamper my skin but I have had no problem with this product.

I found the oil light and very easy to use all over the body unlike Bio Oil which I would only use in particular areas, i.e. if I had a wound. This was much more suitable for all over body use, very similiar to Clarins.

Personally even though I loved the scent, I would like it to be slightly stronger.

I suffer from mild eczema on my legs since the birth of my DS nearly eight years ago. This manifests itself in bumps/ rash on my upper legs. After using this product for two weeks. The bumps have nearly all gone. Medicated creams never achieved that result.

Thankfully I have no stretch marks to test the product out on. Can the product be used post babies arrival? I can not find any info regarding this and many products are not suitable.

My skin now feels so much softer and nourished and as one tester previously atated, it is lovely to use post shaving!!

Prior to using this product I was not aware of the benifits of Avocado Oil and Coenzyme Q10 even though I have been using the Age Devying Hand Cream regularly as I find it one of the best on the market for the price. I also would use Nivea Suncreams and lipbalms.

The bottle is the perfect size as it really shows value for money as you get so much for the price you pay. After using it all over for two weeks, I still have half a bottle left

I kept mine in the bathroom. I also took it away with me when travelling for a few day and due to the lid, found that it was very secure and not prone to leaking.

I do think it is value for money at RRP € 10. I did see it in Boots at much lower than this which is even better.

I knew you could buy it in Boots but have not seen it anywhere else but then I buy most of my skincare there as they regularly do three for the price of two.

I will definitely continue to use this product until someone gives me my favourite Clarins at five times the price

I've never been the best with the whole moisturising thing, with the result that my "3 sections in 4 years" belly is, well, awful! After 2 weeks of using the Nivea firming oil it's slightly less awful (now if I could just find a miracle way to reduce the size of said belly I'd be a happy mammy!).

I found that the oil was absorbed very quickly, much quicker than other oil based moisturisers I've tried in the past, and has worked wonders on tricky areas like my elbows and knees which are always very dry. Overall, my skin feels softer than before, and slightly firmer.

The only Nivea product I have used in the past was a facial moisturiser, I was aware of the Q10 range but never really took much notice of it. having taken part in this test I can safely say that next time I'm doing the shopping I'll be taking more of an interest! The bottle size is ideal, handy to keep one in the shower and one beside the bed; and the price is very competitive.

Overall, would I recommend it - yes. Is it going to change your life overnight - no. What it will do is leave your skin feeling soft and looking good. And I for one will be adding it to my bathroom shelf

I have been using the product every day since I got it.

After my two pregnancies I developed some stretch marks on my legs and was wondering if the oil will ease them a bit. I was really surprised and delighted that only after two weeks of using Nivea forming body oil the stretch marks are not as much visible as they were before.

The oil smells really nice and it left my skin smooth, I used to suffer from dry skin on my legs so hopefully the product solved this problem.
I don't think the oil made any difference in firming my skin.

I haven't found it in my local pharmacy or supermarket , but I did find it online and was surprised how reasonable the price was.

The bottle is a good size, after two weeks of using it not even half of the bottle is gone.

I would recommend the tested product to anybody who suffers from stretch marks, it's well worth to try it for that price.

Thanks for choosing me to sample this product.
This product has left my skin feeling soft and smooth. For that reason I will continue using this product. The smell of it is lovely.
I wasn't aware of the benifits of avacado oil and coenzyme Q10,nor have I previously used any products in the Nivea Body Q10 range,but after sampling this product I would be encouraged to try more products.
The product is a nice handy size, just right, not too big and not too small,
Compared to some of the other similar products it offers value for money.
I wasn't aware of where to get this producct but I will now be keeping an eye out for it in my local supermarket.

Was delighted to take part in this trial as i would use a lot of nivea products. I found the bottle to be of good size and was easily applied. However i did think it took a bit of time to absorb fully into my skin however it did not stain/mark my clothes. It has a nice smell and made my skin extremely soft to touch and left my skin looking nourished. I cannot say i have noticed a huge improvement in my stretch marks but maybe i have them too long to do anything about!!
Also i did not notice any firming effect on my skin but that would not put me off buying this product as it is reasonably priced in comparision to similar products. I will continue to use this in the future. thanks nivea
