Hi.. i wanna to ask that is there any suggestion on which lotion ot cream to use when hv trip to country that winter season now?
I mean apply for face 1.. n sunblock also.. i hving a quite sensitive skin also.
All beauties there, can gv me any suggestion..?

i know for body lotion it's better to use butter type... normal lotions will not be moisture enough for cols countries...

I would say go with the face cream. Having lived in europe before, the air and cold is quite harsh during winter.

i only know for body lotion. =x body shop's moisturisers are not bad! =)

yeah, i know need to apply face cream, if not sure skin will become super dry.. thats y i need some suggestion on good face cream or body lotion which the price is not so expensive 1..
Thanks

for nivea, the lotion don't help much cus it'll dry out after a while. we used the nivea cream that comes in a tin. The bodyshop's body butter thing isn't so bad either. If you're considering price, it's like around rm 50+ if i'm not mistaken. I don't know about nivea.

Better yet, check out this website for more infos on winter skincare: see here

I'm living in Europe. I've been using Dove for ages now and it's really good.

Don't forget a a lip balm too! You need that for you lips, they crack and sore in winter.

yeah, i also think of going to find nivea cream that comes in tin 1.. today will go look for the price of all.. Thanks

i use nivea body,the one in a dark blue color bottle, it was the best compared to a few other types of body lotion ive tried. It keeps my skin moisturized all the time. at my place the temperature's like -20 C. its bloody cold and this cream helps. try it out and see if it works for you..

Yeah, the lotion. They're good.

it's better if you go pharmacy to buy some cream cuz sometimes the weather is so dry and you feel itchy. normal lotion usually not moisturizing enough

my sister has really dry n sensitive skin! but it's ok when she uses the body moisturiser from body shop! those in flat round 'bottles'.haha~

Used Johnson & Johnson before,
OK la, not bad plus it's cheaper..

Oh, nivea body a.. i yesterday go bought already, i bought Nivea creme, is like a dark blur tin also.. dunno buy the correct 1 or not

The best lotion I ever used winter or not winter will always be Rosken...it works wonder...rough elbow can be smooth in 2 weeks applied daily...price also not very expensive..the texture is creamy ( or to some ppl a little greasy) so I only apply it before bed.

I never bring along any lotion during my trip to oversea. I usually buy one from that country itself. i noticed the texture always different from the one in msia even though its same brand. Its always much creamier..

I agree. When I was studying in Australia, I used Nivea (dark blue bottle). I bought the same one from Malaysia once and it's not as creamy as the ones I bought in Australia.

The creamier, the better for me
