-- I have a lot of friends who were skeptical about this product when I mentioned to them that I had been using it lately, but after trying it for themselves they saw what I saw: an amazing lotion that delivers. I started seeing results around maybe a week after beginning to use it. It smoothed out the back of my legs and tightened my thighs. I don't have cellulite so I can't give an appropriate recount of how it works with cellulite, but if you have jiggly legs, so to speak, then this is going to help you out. I also used it on my arms and my stomach and saw results as well. However if you stop using it (I always put it on after a shower before bed), then the results are going to go away. This is not a permanent solution to loose skin. It's only a temporary treatment, and if you want to continue to see results then you're going to have to keep using it.
-- As for the physical package, it's in a large, sleek bottle with a twist spout. I don't remember the pricing but I don't imagine that it was breaking my bank account. Probably around $15-20 CDN. Yes I would very much recommend this product, and I would most definitely buy it again when mine runs out. So ladies if you're struggling with flabby skin then pick this up and you'll be rocking booty shorts in no time.
-- One thing I found was that it took a while to absorb. I would put about two squirt's worth all up and down my butt and thighs and I would be able to feel the moisture for a good ten-fifteen minutes after, which is not a pleasant feeling when you're slipping into PJ pants. Smells alright, mostly like a lotion, though. No real aroma to it. The lotion itself is creamy and soft and feels like it is actually working on your legs when you put it on. Highly recommended to anyone and everyone.
Elfi.

*Have just upgraded my rating from 4 to 5, because this is working, my thighs look heaps better, cellulite is less visible, I'm really impressed*
So far I'm liking this. It's absorbs pretty well. I don't mind the fragrance, but I don't think my partner is a big fan of the smell. I think it's working. I'm trying this to see if it will make my thighs smoother, and tighten up the skin around my arms and knees (it's not particularly saggy, but not like it was when i was 18, funny that), I'm 30 and have recently lost 10pounds (125 down to 115, so I wasn't particularly overweight to start with), but figured you want firm skin to go with the slimmer figure. I do actually think my thighs are looking better, but it could just be because I've lost weight and I like the shape better. Will keep using and change review if I don't think it's doing anything.

i didnt think this product was so bad. i bought it on a whim while looking through the body lotions isle in walmart and wanted to try it. everynight before i went to bed i would use a little on my thighs and stomach, over the night it would feel like a tightening on my skin or like my skin was being pulled a little , however, i didnt see the results i was hoping for but it defintley helped cover my stretch marks.

I just wanna say that if you really do want firm skin, you'll get it from this.
I'm 15 and I started using it when I was 10, then stopped when I was around 13. I don't really know if I should have been using this or not, but I didn't really have anyone there to tell me if I should or not.
After 3 years of using it all over my legs and feet, that area of skin is REALLY smooth and tight. People are always saying, whoa Melissa your legs look and feel so smooth! That it almost looks like plastic, because of the smoothness of it.
So overall, it does give you amazing results and I'm sure it will work for others if you keep using it everyday on a daily basis! That's if you want really smooth, no wrinkly skin!
I'm hoping to go back to using this stuff after I've finished my last bottle of Palmer's Cocoa Butter Formula because I only switched to it to even out my skin tone and fade my scars/marks, and its done it.
I can't wait for this stuff!

I picked up this body lotion at my local chemist because I really liked the new scent and how quickly it sunk in into my skin. It makes my skin very soft and velvety and doesn't leave a heavy film like a lot of other body moisturisers do! I like the scent too - very light and feminine and it disappears within 10 min.

I love this product!! I bought it on a whim during a Costco trip and decided to try it out. Now, about a month after using it religiously after stepping out of the shower, I've noticed that my skin is very smooth. I didn't really have any dimpling or stretch marks prior so I didn't notice any difference in skin texture but I love how soft it keeps my skin. The formula is also very nice...not as thick and greasy as the Curel and applies pretty nice. However, I'm not a fan of the scent. It smells almost too sanitary but a little dab of my regular scented oil did the trick and the smell went away!

The initial thought on my first day of using this product was that it's a little sticky but bearable....A week's past and i now have an EXTREMELY ITCHY red rash all over my legs (which has never happened before).Erk! Disgusting! ... Please spot test this on yourselves...i wouldn't wish this itchiness on anyone...
I'm never buying this again, nor will i give away my virtually untouched bottle to my friends/family- i rather this goes into the bin!

I've been using Nivea Firming Lotion Q10 Plus for a couple of weeks now, and I'm absolutely blown away by how good it is.

So I've just moved into a new house which has a giant mirror and highly illuminating spot lights in the bathtub section of the bathroom, so you can watch yourself while taking a shower and make sexy poses at the same time.
However, the first day I took a shower there, I've spotted some very unflattering dimpled appearance on my butt. I had never even realized it before, and it was a pretty bad surprise. I hated that mirror.
Anyways, coincidentally my mom had got this lotion for me a while ago, so I thought it was time to give it a try then. I used it with a "Meh..." expression on my face, never expecting it to work.
But then, the next time I took a shower there (which was 2 days later) the dimpled appearance was gone! It was gone, and it's as simple as that. I've never believed in miracle creams and lotions but I was challenged on my view that day. I started using it on my legs and thighs as well, and I'm so so happy I gave this a try. I'm most definitely repurchasing. And it's cheap. You never expect the cheap stuff to work so well. Very nice surprise.

I LOVE this product and have seen more firmness and resilience in my skin. The smell is not bad at all and lotion absorbs pretty quickly and does not leave sticky feel. There is another lotion by REN with Frakensence (sp?) but that costs $50 and is to die for- made slight cellulite completely disappear!!! But I would never spend that amount of money on a body lotion as this one works just as good and is very nicely priced :-)

I didn't luv or hate this....it moisturizes nicely and as far as the firming went I did notice a slight improvement in my skin where it needed firming.

After usually forking out quite a significant amount of money for Body Shop body butters, this purchase was a downgrade and I wasn't expecting to be blown away. However, in my opinion this cream is really fantastic - even in comparison to Body Shop body butter!
It has a very creamy spreadable consistency which sinks into your skin. Although I'm not too impressed by the smell, it's bearable and faint enough to fade away after awhile. Furthermore, how it leaves my skin compensates for any drawbacks one might have in relation to the fragrance!! It leaves my skin non-greasy, very supple and evidently very moisturized as it feels so smooth! There are many expensive creams and body butters out there that leave my skin sticky. This is the first time I can actually feel smooth skin, instead of feeling thick product on my skin. Although I'm not so sure as to any firming properties it claims to have, what I can say is that it definitely improved the elasticity of my skin.
So overall, this is a great product with surprisingly great results for those of you who are looking for a good basic body moisturizer that is very affordable.

I don't understand the low rating of this product, I love this body lotion. I have trying to find a cheap replacement for the body shop body cream because here I cannot find body shop products. This cream is moirsturizing, it absorbs quite nicely, which means does not grease my clothes even if I put them on immediatelly after the application. It is easy to apply, I don't see any firming result yet because I just started using this week, but my skin is so moisturized afterwards.
The only downside is that the big bottle will be used up in no time, it absorbs well and I need quite a bit to cover my whole body. continued >>

I love this lotion, smells nice, fresh and clean, not perfumy or overpowering. It absorbes into the skin super fast, without any left over residue on the skin. As far as the firming, I see the skin a bit more firmer and supple... again people if you are looking for a miracle product that will give you firm and tight skin in a week you will not be pleased

After 2 weeks I can see my skin looking much smoother and firming up. I think the people who are looking for miracles will be unhappy, but overall it's a good product.

This stuff is the absolute suckage. Thin, runny, doesn't really moisturize, and seemed to cause keratosis pilarsis on my arms and legs. Doesn't firm. The only thing good to say about this product is that it smells nice.

I bought this lotion during the summer months, as a lighter moisturizer, and possibly a firmer. Well, frankly, I don't think it did either very well. I didn't really notice any firming. I would put it on in the morning, and it did sink in quickly, and the fragrance is pleasent, but by lunch, it felt as if I didn't put any lotion on at all. The thing is, is that I don't even have really dry skin(well, I do in winter..but usually not in summer). I was dissappointed in it, and am currently on the look for a good winter lotion, that isn't greasy!

Nivea and I just don't seem to get on. I bought this because it was on special at a very good price for a trial sized bottle. Unfortunately it just doesn't seem to sink into my skin. Instead it leaves this slightly tacky film all over me, not quite sticky, just not quite dry. I've used it three times now and it will be passed onto a friend of mine.

Just started using this product.... Although I can't comment on the firming qualities just yet, I must say it absorbs extremely well and doesn't make my clothes stick to my skin after application. I will definitely keep buying it. The scent it a little strong however...

this is a good cream for winter. i usually add organic rose hip oil to it, what a beautiful combination. of course i would trade it for some thing without parabens, etc, but for something that you don't really splurge on, its quite a good buy
