NIVEA SUN UV Face Shine Control Cream

Got it on a whim, but I now prefer it over the Beauty of Joseon cream one (and the Neutrogena City Shield one) Pros - has a tad of a yellow tin to it - great of olive skin / warm tones - does not leave white marks - sinks in quickly - spreads easily & easy to layer and to reapply - does not create a "porcelain" shade on my skin like Beauty of Joseon does - creates nice dewy/matte look - keeps shine in control throughout the day - putting it on and going in with a bit of pressed powder (Rimmel Stay Matte translucent) on my T-zone creates very natural look - it absorbs the skin oil in itself through the day to keep you from looking like a glazed donut - has not irritated my skin yet - has not broken me out yet - great to reapply as 2nd layer of sunscreen throughout the day (even on the top of another sunscreen) - it is spf 50 - its smell goes away after about an hour (I like the smell - it smells like 2024 version of the sunscreen used in 2000 lol) - gives a tiny tiny bit of a "snatched"/tight feeling to my skin which I like - feeling very confident while wearing it - make-up - so far so good but I don't apply it often enough in general to have enough valuable experience with that Cons - the label is a bit misleading - it does not create matte look on the skin - it can actually look a bit too shiny after application - it has the typical sunscreen smell to it - but better - but why does it need to have perfume in it at all?? - contains alcohol -> it evaporates quickly and helps with initial oil control, but may not be for dry skin Overall I will keep repurchasing it unless my skin develops reaction to it. IMPORTANT NOTE RE MATTIFYING: I think this is one of the product that is really good and accessible but many people will be disappointed by it and throw it in a bin. Reason being because they will expect a "matte" effect on their skin (the whole time while wearing it). The formulation of the product contains many ingredients that will absorb the excess oil from your skin into them - instead of just letting it shine through - which is what creates that "mattifying" effect. So you still may need to use powder and/or blot your face once or twice a day (if you have combination/oily skin). But this is the only sunscreen that has given me consistent mild dewy look throughout the whole day without the glazed donut look. So my skin actually looks "just normal". Not too dry, not too oily. I usually blot my face 2h after putting it on and then I am good until the end of the day (not the case with other sunscreens). P.S. if your sunscreen is pilling up - it may be your previous layers (I had to give up my hyaluronic acid); water vs. silicone based skin care; not enough drying time between layers; dragging your skin too much during application; not enough regular exfoliation of old skin; or dust & fibres on your face if you don't wash it in the morning.

Honestly, this NIVEA UV Face SPF50 Q10 is amazing! I’ve tried countless sunscreens, but this one is by far the best I’ve come across. First off, it doesn’t leave any white residue – which, let’s be real, is a huge deal. You know how most sun creams leave you looking like a ghost? Not this one. It absorbs beautifully, leaving my skin feeling smooth and not greasy at all. On top of that, the addition of Q10 is a total game changer. Not only is it protecting my skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays, but it’s also working to prevent premature ageing. I’ve noticed my skin feels plumper, smoother, and more hydrated. It’s like a 2-in-1 sunscreen and anti-ageing treatment! This sunscreen is perfect for daily use. It doesn't feel heavy on my skin and I love how it absorbs quickly without any sticky residue. Plus, my skin looks brighter, and I feel so much more confident knowing I’m not just protecting my skin from the sun but also fighting those early signs of ageing. Seriously, if you're looking for a high-quality sunscreen that actually does what it promises, this is it. It’s now a staple in my skincare routine – I can't recommend it enough!

I recently had the opportunity to try out the NIVEA UV Face Shine Control SPF50, and I must say, it has quickly become a staple in my skincare routine. First and foremost, the sunscreen offers a high level of sun protection with its SPF50 formula. When I was on holiday and living in a sunny climate, it's crucial for me to shield my skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays, and this product does an excellent job in that regard. I feel confident knowing that my skin is well-protected, even during extended periods of sun exposure. Another aspect that I appreciate about this product is its lightweight and non-greasy texture. It blends effortlessly into the skin, without leaving any residue or white cast. The formula feels comfortable on the skin. Additionally, it works well as a base for makeup, allowing for smooth application and long-lasting wear. Furthermore, the moisturizing properties of this sunscreen are worth mentioning. Despite its shine control abilities, it doesn't compromise on hydration. My skin feels nourished and moisturized throughout the day, without any dryness or tightness. It's a great multi-purpose product that saves me time and effort in my skincare routine. However, when it comes to shine control, I found the performance to be somewhat lacking. Throughout the day, I still experienced some oiliness on my skin, especially in my T-zone. It's worth noting that I have combination skin, so individuals with oilier skin types may have a different experience. The packaging of the NIVEA sunscreen also worth noting. The compact 50 ml tube is travel-friendly and easy to use, with a flip-top cap that ensures no product is wasted. It's convenient to carry around in my bag, making reapplication hassle-free. I highly recommend this product for daily use, as it has become an essential part of my skincare routine.

I’ve been using the NIVEA Sun UV Face Anti-Age SPF 50 for a few weeks now, and I’m really impressed. The formula feels lightweight on the skin, absorbing quickly without leaving any greasy residue behind. It provides instant hydration and leaves my face feeling smooth and refreshed all day. I also appreciate the high SPF protection — it gives me peace of mind without the thick, sticky feel of most sun creams. It’s perfect for daily use under makeup or on its own. Plus, there’s no white cast, which is a huge bonus! Overall, it’s a great sunscreen that not only protects but also keeps my skin feeling soft and nourished. Highly recommend!

Great face sun cream, I have very sensitive skin but this cream is fine for me, nice lightweight cream.

I just bought a second one. This works wonders on my skin. As someone who has been struggling with dark marks and pimples, after using this i saw results after a week. It didn't completely remove dark spots but it reduced the visibility. Hopefully they will be gone completely after using the second tube. I highly recommend it.

piccola crema solare protezione 50 che tengo sempre nella borsa. Ormai uso solo 50 come protezione solare perché questo sole e’ forte e pericoloso e perché ho delle macchie in viso. Pratico e protegge bene pur facendo abbronzare bene

Angenehme Konsistenz, zieht schnell ein, nicht glänzend. Pigmentflecken werden blasser.

Ottima crema antietà ,la uso tutte le mattine sia d’inverno che d’estate.Macchie scure attenuate.Per me vale 5stelle

Loved it
