I, unfortunately, inherited my mum’s super dry skin. I remember how she used to resort to all sort of remedies (dripping wax on the legs, anyone?!) in attempt to achieve silky soft skin.

While I haven’t gone to that measure (yet), I’ve tried about all skin moisturisers/body lotion in the market. Some good, some bad, some are just a waste of space and moolah. Which is why I’m quite excited to try out NIVEA latest product, Skin Delight which now comes with 2 floral scents!

NIVEA Skin Delight Oil in Body Milk

My heart skipped a beat when I opened the box.

Looks like someone feels the same and couldn’t keep her hands off them too!

NIVEA, Singapore’s #1 brand for Hand & Body Moisturiser*, is known for their effective moisturising formula and value for money products. Always keen to find the ‘cure’ to my life-long dry skin problem, I found Skin Delight worked a treat on my scaly, shiny and sometimes itchy skin.

This stuff is potent. I only need to apply a small amount for my skin to attain a natural, healthy sheen, something that was previously only achievable by applying loads of greasy body oil. The deep moisturising effect is surprisingly long lasting too, compared to other body milk and lotion that I’ve tried. My skin feels smooth and soft to touch even after a good night sleep.

Apparently, 91% Singapore women (25 to 44 years old) agree with me, according to the results of 100 women self-assessment conducted by NIVEA.

I’m usually reluctant to use skincare products with a strong scent, but I absolutely can’t get enough of these NIVEA delights. The NIVEA Skin Delight Oil in Body Milk Glowing Rose and Skin Delight Oil in Body Milk Relaxing Lavender with delicate floral scent are now firmly positioned as my go-to skin moisturiser after every shower.

I personally prefer the soothing and calming Relaxing Lavender scent. It transports me back to the tranquil lavender farm in Hunter Valley I visited many years ago. It is perfect as pre-bedtime ritual.

Overall, I find that with NIVEA Skin Delight Oil in Body Milk, I get the excellent moisturising effect of using oil, with the soft and lightness to touch of using body milk. Retailing at affordable $7.90 for 250ml and $10.90 for 400ml, NIVEA Skin Delight can be found at Cold Storage, Fair Price, Giant, Guardian, Watsons and other major retail stores.
