GRANDMA’S youthful glow isn’t just the result of genetics – at least for one, she also relies on a budget-friendly skincare product sold at Target.
One woman raved that her grandmother doesn’t rely on makeup because she’s found the “fountain of youth.”
She shared the secret to her grandma’s age-defying appearance on Reddit’s Makeup Addiction forum, which has over 6 million members.
She spoke candidly as she asked other Redditors to share beauty tips they learned from elderly family members.
“My grandmother is not a huge fan of makeup – she hardly ever wears it,” she said, writing under the handle AmberRae.
“But, she has instilled within me a love for the Nivea cream that looks like this.”
She shared a link to Nivea’s Skin Firming & Anti-Wrinkle Neck & Chest Cream, which costs $15.99 at Target.
The Redditor revealed she’s been using the anti-aging cream ever since her grandma introduced her to it.
“She’s from Germany, so it makes sense that she uses this stuff and we swear it’s her fountain of youth,” she said.
“It makes your skin so soft and hydrated – I love it under foundation, it makes me glowy.”
According to Nivea, the cream moisturizes the skin for up to 24 hours and improves elasticity.
It visibly reduces the appearance of wrinkles within two weeks when applied twice daily.
Target customers have given it a whopping 4.5-star rating out of a possible 5.
One person said it made the skin on their chest “softer and less crepey,” while another gushed that their skin was “hydrated and looks smoother.”
“This firming and anti-wrinkle cream is Amazing!” a third said.
“It goes on smooth and soaks in fast leaving your skin looking and feeling younger.”
The Redditor revealed her grandma has also shared a trick for volumizing tresses.
“We recently went on a road trip and I saw her backcombing her short hair to give it volume – not anything crazy, but just enough to add some bounce.
“I would have never known if it wasn’t for our trip. What have you learned from your grandmother?”

Many people upvoted the post and several commenters also raved about Nivea skincare.
“I heart Nivea, it’s great stuff, doesn’t break me out, or make me itchy,” one person said.
“My grandma is a wise old Hispanic woman, and she uses Nivea lotions religiously,” another commented.
“And according to her, chamomile tea soothes everything from a bruised knee to a newly broken heart.
“I have an aunt on my dad’s side who taught me early on that natural make-up is the way to go.
“She recently remarried and turned 50, but she’s still glowing like a 30-year-old newlywed.”
