Ingredients Explained
These ingredients are found in both products.
Ingredients higher up in an ingredient list are typically present in a larger amount.
Sodium Hydroxide is also known as lye or caustic soda. It is used to adjust the pH of products; many ingredients require a specific pH to be effective.
In small amounts, sodium hydroxide is considered safe to use. However, large amounts may cause chemical burns due to its high alkaline.
Your skin has a natural pH and acid mantle. This acid mantle helps prevent harmful bacteria from breaking through. The acid mantle also helps keep your skin hydrated.
"Alkaline" refers to a high pH level. A low pH level would be considered acidic.

So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.
You'll also recognize water as that liquid we all need to stay alive. If you see this, drink a glass of water. Stay hydrated!

Nivea Q10 Power Day Cream SPF30 28 ingredients
This product is a complete joke. It provides no moisture and leaves my skin dryer than before I used it. The cream is really sticky, it’s not even worth the money.
Not for dry sensitive skin
I used it for two weeks and it works fine but one day it causes burning sensation on my cheeks and it makes your skin a little oily and it doesn't help dry flaky areas plus not good for tight skin
