Nivea For Men Advanced Whitening Dark Spot Reduction Face Wash Review

What does the product claim?

                Suitable for all skin types. The effective formula is now even better with Whitinat Vita Complex Plus that contains 10 nutrients by which you get
  •           Cleansed skin for a whiter skin
  •      Removes dark spot accumulated from dirt and residues
  •      Removes impurities and excess oil
  •      Controls oiliness up to 12h 
Result:
1. White and healthy looking skin
2. Reduced oiliness and tightened pores.

Price:

I bought it for Rs 89 for 50 gm (It was a trial offer for limited period)

Ingredients:

Licorice, Vitamic C, Whitinat, Vitamin E, Pro Vitamin B5, Ginko Leaves Extract, Ginseng Root Extract, Glycerine, Magnesium Chloride, Glyceryl Glucoside.

My experience:

The face wash comes in tube which is easy to use and travel friendly.

The face wash have thick cream like consistency which lathers well. It has a typical Nivea fragrance which is okay for me.

First time when I used it, I felt it cleansed my oily skin thoroughly as claimed by the product. But the very next moment I felt that it has stripped all the oil as well as the moisture from my skin. Immediate application of a moisturizer is must for me. After washing face, I did felt of being brighter which was temporary and didn’t last for more than 2-3 hrs. About dark spot reduction, I have stubborn pimple spots which have been for almost 2 years now and I don’t expect them to fade away instantly. But the product claims for only dark spots due to pollution, so it is okay!
I have been using this product for over 2 weeks now, and it didn’t break me out nor irritated my skin.

Good points:

  • Cleanses well.
  • Has some brightening effect which lasts for 2-3 hrs.
  • Controls oil for 4-5 hrs.
  • Good packaging.
  • Easy on pocket.
  • Good shelf Life, for about 2.5 years.

Not Good points:

  •  Strips the oil and moisture completely.
  • Loaded with other chemicals, so not for men opting for “Herbal” products.
  • Although product says suitable for all skin types, It is definitely not for dry skinned and combination skinned men.
  • Can’t be used in winters.


 Rating:

3.5/5

Will I recommend it?

Yes, for men with oily skin that gets super oily in summer, this one is good face wash. But dry skinned may not like it.
