Large pores has always been my problem, and that is the reason I avoid taking close up pictures. I guess I have to pay more attention on my skin especially on my skin care routine. I have been neglecting my routine for some time now due to my hectic work in the office. I guess it’s the time now for me to start from the ‘basic’ one, which means, I have to start using NIVEA as my main skincare product for daily routine. Believe it or not, I have been using NIVEA products ever since I was in high school (other that Hazeline, which is no longer available in the market).

What I Say
It comes in a small ceramic container with plastic cap and this has been one of the NIVEA’s trademarks. The consistency is quite thick but I don’t really mind it since I’m using it before going to bed, which I would applied it onto my face after mask. Unlike other brands which I tried before, this one does not leave white residues. It easily gets absorbed into the skin.
It does brighten up my skin every morning but it does not minimize the pores (or maybe I have high expectation on this product). Anyway, it does reduce dark spots, and my acne scars within 14 days. That is pretty impressive.
I cannot tell if it really makes my skin one shade fairer because I have fair skin, but I believe this brightening effect is rather interesting as this makes my skin looks healthier and moisturized.
My Verdict
NIVEA Extra White Pore Minimiser Night Cream is a good product as it moisturised my face during night time. It actually leaves my skin feels nice every time I wake up in the morning. I cannot deny the oily feeling but it actually heals my skin – and brightens my dull skin. The only thing that it cannot do is to minimize the pores. I feel relieved that NIVEA Extra White Pore Minimiser Night Cream does not give me breakouts. This is just nice and I would repurchase this again as it does brighten my dull skin. I would love to see NIVEA to improve this product in the near future especially the part where it can minimise the appearance of pores.
