You probably often see Nivea commercials when watching TV or videos online.

Nivea Kao NIVEA Mildly Acidic Foaming Face Wash “Aren’t You Choosing?” VersionMiwako Kakei, Maria Tani

This commercial expresses, through a lighthearted song, how NIVEA’s mildly acidic foaming face wash addresses common skincare concerns.

It portrays the worries of Miwako Kakei and Maria Tani as they look at their reflections in the mirror, and conveys that NIVEA provides the solution.

The song, serving as both a confession of their concerns and a pathway to resolution, is a parody of Doburokku’s “Moshikashite Dakedo.” Centered on the breezy sound of an acoustic guitar that recalls the original track, the music unfolds into an airy arrangement.

Layered with lyrics that convey thoughtful ideas about facial cleansing, it creates a positive, uplifting mood.
