    Yes, I’ve tried Googling and the online version of the article cuts off behind the subscription requirement before the product is named.

     I wasn’t able to read the print version due to the shop having sold out.

    Posting here was my last resort

    Here is the Nivea site


    Then google reviews for the cream must be others who have tried it.

    Beauty editors are paid to review magazines and newspapers want the advertising, so will not say it is useless.

    I caught something on Google news the other day about a woman who has been using Nivea for years.
    She might have been 95.
    I'll see if I can find it.
    ETA:
    She's 92.
    Google it.
    It's the basic cream, apparently £2.00
