Day 2
The second day of the trip and the first day of the NIVEA International Conference began quickly. The bed in Bianca's room was pretty big huge so I decided to stay with her. Fatigue must have spoken because I woke up quite hard and ran to my room to get ready. In front of the door I found a new surprise - Nivea 3in1 micellar water - and a new beautiful message: “Good morning Ioana, start your day refreshed with the new NIVEA 3-In-1 Micellar Cleansing Water with grape seed oil”. I told myself "I finally got my hands on it! ” and I couldn't wait to test it.
On the principle Better late, than ugly, I missed breakfast, but had time for a cup of coffee. I didn't want to miss his presentation in any way Matthias Horx, Futurologist-Writer-Trend Consultant, about well-being - Wellbeing as a Resource. Wellness-Selfness-Mindness-Sensuality.
Being one of the theorists of the term the Wellness, imagine how eager I was to meet him. His presentation focused on well-being as a resource and self-inclination and sensory experiences.
Without being at all synonymous with selfishness, it presented us with a new stage of well-being, the trend that society is following in the transition from wellness to selfness, and showed us how all these things are part of the great system of mega-tendencies that mankind follows.
This term of selfness it refers both to the transformation of the values we cherish and to the direction of the changes we will integrate in our daily lives: emotional intelligence, body acceptance & spirituality.
In short, if the term the Wellness it only referred to well-being and good looks, now we are facing a movement that promotes a healthy lifestyle for both body and spirit, which opposes the fast pace and stress we are subjected to by society. A kind of unplug movement which opposes the dependence on being constantly connected to everything that happens in the world.
I admit that it was one of the most interesting presentations I have participated in so far and I honestly even realized that everything he explained is felt on an individual level. As much as I would like to be connected to Facebook, blog, phone, etc., I always admit that I prefer to turn off my phone every night or leave it silently in a bag when I'm out of town.
The bottom line is that we need to pay more attention to the things that make us happy and nourish our minds and souls because the small details make the difference - for example, an aroma that gives you a state of relaxation.
After this presentation that left me wow! I was even more eager to discover the NIVEA news.
I had already learned from sources casually that NIVEA will launch micellar water, a product I'm addicted to because they carry gene extensions, and the curiosity was high. What can NIVEA come up with? The answer came immediately: with an innovative 3in1 formula containing dexpanthenol and grape seed oil, full of antioxidants and vitamins that cleanse and protect the skin, while stimulating cell regeneration and improving hydration by keeping water in the skin. I admit, I was impressed. Even with my attitude of I saw them and tried them all.
Then came the range LEVEL MEN, to which I am honest, I have not paid any special attention before. I have always considered it his responsibility to purchase his care products. And only occasionally did I intervene with a moisturizing balm stammering that there are not enough care products for men. Fake! Fake! Fake!
The new Nivea Men Sensitive range contains… I don't think I can tell you yet what it contains. But I'll leave you with some photos. All the products were gathering in front of me. I'm wodering why? 🙂
At the time I was simply delighted with all the news I was discovering, but now I don't know which one excites me the most: the micellar water I don't part with anymore or In-Shower Shower Lotions with the two new flavors: cocoa and milk or honey and milk. And it wasn't hard to decide, given that I want everything to be just honey and milk, including the experience of a quick shower.
And by the way, know that the numbers say that In-Shower is a very popular product in Romania, and not because we would be more lazy, but because we use any pretext to live the experience NIVEA In-Shower. Or at least I do
The conference took place in a seemingly classic room, but which had a wall of butterflies! 😀
After the second conference, it was time for lunch, which we served at a restaurant that had its own farm. Our luck was that just as we sat at the table it rained very hard, even with stone, and then it stopped abruptly and the sun came out. I really thought someone up there loved us. Especially since I went to Figueres where I visited Salvador Dali Museum-Theater. If until now this artist was quite difficult for me to understand, this visit helped me to see things differently and helped me to penetrate a little in his mind. Although I don't think anyone would really want to be in Salvador Dali's mind.
The evening ended with a visit to the Spa. When I arrived in the room, a new surprise awaited me - the new In-Shower lotions along with the message “Dear Ioana, after an exciting day it's now time to relax. Indulge your skin with one of our new NIVEA In-Shower Body Lotions”.
What followed? I'm just telling you this: The Indian Princess Bath and the new Nivea In-Shower flavors. And not because I'm selfish, but because I chose to completely disconnect and fully enjoy all these special sensory experiences without thinking that I have to remember every detail to be able to play it afterwards. The truth is, I can't relax for you, but each of us has to do it for him.
My morning view 😀
The story of #NiveaExperience continues tomorrow with day 3 and more photos!

You should know that I always say when I go out that I turn off my phone silently and that I don't look at it until I get home. I only keep it in case of emergency. And I wake up walking on the internet and answering emails. 🙂 I still have work to do.
I am very curious about the in-shower lotion with cocoa and milk. These variants haven't appeared in our country yet, have they?
I can't wait for the third part. Many kisses.
Look for the new In-Shower through stores, they must have appeared. Only that we won't have cucumbers in Romania 🙁
