Nivea Or Carmex?



Hey Front Rowers! Today's post is going to be based on "Nivea Or Carmex?" Everyone has heard of Carmex, it is supposed to be a moisturising lip balm which soothes, relieves and moisturises. For years I used Vaseline (lip balm). I thought it was the best lip balm out there and it was unbeatable. I heard of Carmex but never payed much attention towards it. Then I used a cousin's and was shocked at the change and affect on my lips.

I realised Vaseline just sits on your lips and leaves them dryer and does nothing. With Carmex you feel the change that good burning tingling feeling you get when you apply it. My lips feels softer then ever and always moisturised. My lips have never been a issue but I feel a positive difference now. This is perfect for people  with dry lips, chapped lips etc. It solves all problems you have with your lips.

With Vaseline you can get different flavors but they don't make any difference. But with Carmex you can get a cherry flavor, mint or just a normal one. If you prefer not to have to much of that burning sensation then I recommend the cherry flavor. I also love the packaging you can get it in a tub or tube. I use both but what I love about the tube that is that flat and its rounded so you can apply easier with your own control.

To conclude: I prefer carmex and it has done way better to my lips then any lip balm has ever done. So whats your opinion? Please comment down below with your choice and if you have another lip balm share it. Follow us for new posts every week.

Review: Nivea, Dailey Essentials, Oil Free Moisturing Day Cream.




Hey Front Rower's. Today's first post is going to be a review on the "Nivea, Daily Essentials, Oil Free Moisturing Day Cream."  As a young person with problem skin like everyone else, I struggle to find products to suit my skin. My skin goes through different stages. Generally, I have oily skin around my nose area and for-head. I have very light skin and also get alot of redness at times. My sister came accross this cream and recomended it to me. I have been using it for a while and I have seen a big different towards my skin.


Pros:
It covers my redness around my face. It moisturises well feels cool on the skin. The oil that is normally around my nose and forehead just dissapears; and my face feels refreshed and I dont have to worry for the day. When applying it to my skin it absorbs well into my skin which is hard to find with other moisturisers. It's not very thick and you dont have to use a huge amount.

Cons:
It doesn't containt SPF so you may have to use a seperate sun screen when applying this cream. The size of the tube is only 50ml so it may finish quickly. My advice is to stock up when its on offer (LOL)

Overall, this is a good product for the price (£3.99) and has a made a huge improvement to my skin and would recomend it to anyone with oily and combination skin.

P.S It is on offer at the moment at Boots as a BOGOFF and also on offer at Superdrug for £1.99.
