Call me a cheap, but I’m always excited about receiving freebies. It doesn’t matter that sometimes the freebies aren’t exactly my cup of tea, I will still happily accept them because I can then pass it on to whoever finds it useful. One woman’s poison is another woman’s meat.
Recently I went hunting for a moisturiser. I am a faithful Clarins user and although they were having a big sale of up to 70% discount recently (read post here), I did not go for it. I’m quite sure I would’ve been able to buy a moisturiser for a lot less at the sale, but I just didn’t have the time. The other reason is also because I had half the mind of making a change to something that will cost me considerably less but does just as good a job.
I’ve used Eucerin’s products and have been quite happy with it (read some of my previous posts on Eucerin here and and a review here). Having tried their cleanser, toner and the anti-pigmentation fluid, I am quite keen to try a moisturiser. This is what I bought for RM48.88.

Eucerin Hydro-Protect Hydrating And Protecting Fluid
Eucerin’s moisturiser in the Hydro-Protect range comes in two different types. One is a hydrating and protecting cream which comes in a glass jar. The other is pictured above, a hydrating and protecting fluid. Both are 50ml in content, some with SPF 15 and cost the same. I read both the labels and they said exactly the same thing in terms of usage, benefits and even suitable skin types. I have no idea which is better or if there are any significant difference which is not highlighted. I just prefer this bottle to a jar, so I purchased it based on packaging.
Along with this moisturiser came a freebie which is a little travel pouch for toiletries. As I bagged this, I asked the girl if there were any product samples that I can take away and she happily gave me two small bottles of lotion. I was so glad I asked and now can try out their lotion for free!
See, asking never hurts (you might seem a little thick skin and demanding, that’s about all) and if you are anything like me, you stand to gain a little thrill at the end of the day. Life is short, so enjoy whatever little things that put a smile on your face. Here are my proudly claimed freebies.

I was googling to find reviews on Eucerin’s moisturiser Hydro Protect, and I found your blog
But I can’t seem to find any of the reviews you left on the Eucerin products!:( Did you like Eucerin’s moisturiser? Would you recommend it? I’m considering buying it, but not sure yet!
Hi Mary. Yes I did use Eucerin’s moisturiser. I didn’t feel much of a difference using it compared with other moisturisers. I guess it’s just an average product. I’ve switched to some other brand now.
