One comment that I often get is how fair my complexion is. And for that, I’m truly blessed. My mother used to joke that the reason why I’m so fair is because she used to drink lots of soya milk when she was expecting me. And I used to be one lucky lady who don’t get tanned no matter how long I stay in the sun. However admittedly, my skin has lost some of its self whitening ability with age and my skin is no longer as fair and radiant as it used to be 10 years ago.
Even though I may be away from the sun and in an air-conditioned office from Mondays to Fridays, come weekends, you’ll usually find me outdoors with the family at the park and beach.
With such harsh UV rays exposure, it often leaves my skin with dull and damaged pigmented skin. As a result, it’s not hard to imagine that my skin becomes uneven and rough too. So as to prevent my skin from getting further damaged, I’m taking actions now to take care of my skin by starting on a moisturizing regime with NIVEA Body UV Whitening Serum.
Dull and uneven skin on my arms
I have no qualms about applying serum and moisturiser on my face. But when it comes to moisturising the body, I usually only do so on a need to basis i.e. very very seldom which I’m sure is very common among most ladies. And the only reason is simply because most moisturisers and lotions tend to leave a sticky after feeling. And with the humidity we have, I rather skip it all together than get irritated a sticky itcky after feel. But I decided that my skin needed the nourishment and was very pleasantly surprised by my new NIVEA Body UV Whitening Serum.
The first thing that caught my eye was that this product is the FIRST EVER body whitening serum with SPF25 that offers daily sun protection. Now that’s a clever way to get more mileage out from one product!
When I first applied the serum, I was very pleasantly surprised that unlike most body moisturiser that tend to be thick and heavy, the consistency for NIVEA Body UV Whitening Serum was very lightweight and was quickly absorbed into my skin.
And the second thing that I liked was its soothing and mild milky scent, a signature scene of Nivea.
Packed with natural Vitamin C from Camu Camu, and 95% anti-oxidant Pure Vitamin C, the serum promises to help repair and restore dull and sun-damaged skin so that your skin will reveal a fairer and healthier shade.
I am embarking on a 14-day experience using this product to achieve fairer skin and will be sharing my experience in my next post!

Sun protection is a definitely daily must! Whitening, moisturising plus sun protection is so much win in one product 🙂

Yes, especially when the sun ray leaves me with blotchy and dull skin. Can’t afford to let that happen.
