I started using the nivea/olive oil cold cream on monday of last week and after a week and a half I have to say I'm really pleased! I've been using the cold cream and witch hazel both morning and night and then my usual exfoliator ( which is a dermalogica one) once a week. My face feels smoother than it's ever been and my make-up seems to be going on much easier and looking much better. Also, my pores are looking a lot clearer ! The only downside has been that I've noticed that my face can seem a little bit dry in the afternoon ( whereas it used to be an oilslick !) and a few days ago my neck seemed to have a weird reaction and got really itchy - but since that hasn't happened any other time I think that was probably due to something else. I'm super happy I tried this now, particularly since I probably picked the worst week to try and start it - one of the worst heat waves we've ever had - which means no sleep, a lot of chlorine and other pool nasties on my face and a lot of "glowing" Hope this helps anyone who was thinking of trying the nivea alternative Thanks again to Flicka for the idea A Follow-Up on my experience with Jergen's All Purpose Face Cream. At first I was really excited to try this honestly because it is so cheap, and I read some great reviews. Within 3 days of using it my face started breaking out, and it wasn't normal break outs for me, it was all over my face instead of just where I normally break out. I felt like my face wasn't able to breath and almost as if it was trapping the heat in my face. And it also felt like my face was never clean, and it kind of started to gross me out. With Pond's I was able to just use that to cleanse and sleep over night but not with the Jergen's. I guess my face and Jergen's just can't get along

I don't know if it's because Perth is well..Perth but I've looked in the coles, woolies, chemist warehouse, wizard chemist, pharmacy 777, IGA etc. and so far have had no luck. So far the nivea is working well but I'll keep an eye out at chemist warehouse cause I'd like to do a comparison at some point - although I'm moving to Jersey, UK in a few months so I should be able to find more stuff there
Thanks
Miss 1929 I use something like that( I think). It's called a Japanese nylon polishing cloth. It's about 2 feet long 6 in high so it makes solo back washing a breeze. Exfoliation is FABULOUS. I use it only on my body about once a week with a foaming pumice scrub.It really helps with the turkish style scrub I prefer. In fact some of you ladies may find this gross but I only wash my body once a week. I do shower and scrub with soap the important areas and bits including my face every day.One day a week is a bath epsom salts
My husband who insists on a daily or even twice daily lather and scrub, is the only one in our family with skin problems.

I checked online and out of 3 Targets near me, they're all out of stock or no longer sell them. I use the rose toner, the rose cold cream, rose vanishing day cream, and the bergamot night cream. I was just thinking last night that I need to buy some backups, because I only have 1 product of each and they're about 2/3 full. I only have 1 unopened backup rose day cream and that's it! Urgh!
That really bums me out about their website. My skin finally stopped having fits and I've noticed a huge change in my complexion since using the cold cream and tonic. I've made it a part of my nightly routine, it just wouldn't feel the same pampering myself with something else!
