This NIVEA range is the Mother's Day gift she'll actually use every day

When was the last time your mum actually sat down and did something for herself? Not the rushed moisturiser application or the face wipe she uses to remove makeup while simultaneously doing 101 other things? We're talking proper, uninterrupted skincare time.

With Mother's Day coming up on 15th March, you've got the perfect excuse to give her exactly that. And no, we don't mean another scented candle she'll feel too guilty to light. NIVEA's Q10 range is essentially a love letter to self-care… the kind that transforms a two-minute routine into something that actually feels like a ritual.

The science bit (but make it simple)

Q10 isn't just a fancy name they slapped on the packaging. It's actually Coenzyme Q10, which your skin naturally produces to keep itself looking fresh. The problem? Those levels start dropping as we get older. Cheers, ageing. The NIVEA Q10 range works to top up what time takes away, and the results speak for themselves.

The starting point for any solid routine is the NIVEA Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Expert Dual Action Serum (€27.49). This one packs the highest concentration of pure Q10 in the range and visibly reduces even deep wrinkles in just two weeks. The secret weapon here is something called GLYCOSTOP, which blocks glycation. In plain English? It helps prevent new wrinkles from forming and protects skin from sugar damage. Your mum doesn't need another thing to worry about.

Day versus night (both covered)

Once the serum's on, she's got options depending on the time of day. For mornings, there's the NIVEA Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Power Day Cream SPF30 (€22.99). It's got a collagen-boosting duo of pure Q10 and Creatine, plus SPF30 and Hyaluronic Acid for serious hydration. Basically everything she needs before facing the chaos of the day ahead. 

For evenings when the house finally goes quiet, the NIVEA Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Power Night Cream (€22.99) takes over. It absorbs fast, moisturises instantly and leaves skin feeling firmer and softer after just seven days. That's less than a week to noticeable results. Not bad for something she can do while half-watching telly.

The targeted touch

For those stubborn lines that just won't budge, the NIVEA Q10 Anti-Wrinkle Power Expert Targeted Wrinkle Filler Serum (€25.99) is the finishing touch for both day and night routines. This clever little tube visibly reduces fine lines in just five minutes. Five. That's less time than it takes to make a cup of tea and actually drink it hot.

The 5% Active Complex with Pure Coenzyme Q10 and Bioxifill peptides gets to work ten layers deep, stimulating collagen production and tackling wrinkles from the inside out. It's precision skincare for the woman who deserves a bit of precision care.

Here's what we love about this as a Mother's Day gift. It's not just one thing she'll use once and forget about. It's an entire routine that gives her permission to slow down, even for just a few minutes each day. A built-in reminder that she matters too.

Because let's face it, mums are brilliant at looking after everyone else. Terrible at looking after themselves. This is your chance to change that, even just a little.

We think it's a great idea for the special woman in your life….or even a treat for yourself!
