A colleague mentioned that she uses Dermaveen moisturizers and they work well for her, so I decided to give it a try. Was attracted to the additional feature mentioned at the bottle – for relief of dry itchy or sensitive skin.
Even though this is a lotion, I find it thicker than the QV lotion that I have been using earlier. The texture is in between a lotion and cream. Feels slightly sticky if I use it on a humid/hot day. Otherwise, this is a good moisturizer to relief dry skin. I may revert back to the QV skin lotion so that . . . → Read More: DermaVeen Moisturising Lotion

Decided to get a lighter lotion during times when my skin is calmer so that I don’t feel so sticky. This lotion is very easy to put on as it is watery and absorbs pretty fast. I tend to use a lot at one time cause of the texture. Couldn’t find a bigger bottle, it comes in 250ml.
Can be found at most pharmacies. As I was searching for a photo of the lotion, I chanced upon an online website where we can buy most of the skin care —> https://www.mypharmacy.com.sg/ShopFront/CategoryPage.aspx?CatID=42
Glanced through and some of the prices seems slightly cheaper than found . . . → Read More: QV Skin Lotion Moisturizer

I am very cautious of using moisturizers on my face cause facial skin is thinner and more sensitive. I use this hypoallergenic cream to moisturize my face daily at night before going to bed. This is a very gentle face cream, not sticky and light.

My sis introduced this to me. When you use it during shower and lather it, creates a softening foam – unique in texture. After shower, it leaves a satin-like softness on the body. Read the ingredients and seem to be rich in almond oil and nourishing lipids.

I use this cream to moisturize my skin after bath. It’s thick to coat my skin but is not sticky. I also don’t get any tingly feeling so means the ingredients are quite hypoallergenic.
This moisturizer can be found at any pharmacy. Advisable to get the bigger tub so that it’s more economical. 250g costs about SGD22.

My office air-con tends to be very cold and drying for my skin. Even after I moisturize with cream, it tends to get dry by noon.
This body oil is very good to seal moisturize, and I use it after bath before going for work.
Great thing about it is that it comes with a spray which distributes the oil quite evenly over a large surface area.

Wow this was a great find for me. According to http://www.harnn.com/NaturalRiceBranOilSoapsCollection/NaturalRiceBranOilSoapsCollection.html, their soaps are made from Rice Bran Oil.
The clove soap, in particular, has provided me with immediate relief during flare ups.

This is quite a smooth cream made from natural (herbal extracts and skin vitamins) and organic product. It has very little or almost none chemical content and is very soothing to the skin. It is nice to apply and gives a soothing after effect. It absorbs quite well and doesn’t leave a very sticky feeling even though it is a creme. This product is recommended for relief from symptoms of scaling, flaking, itching and irritating . . . → Read More: Psorzema Cream by Dermae
