Slap a cheap touch of happiness onto your skin thanks to Nivea

I have been using the Nivea Touch of Happiness Body Lotion for about a month now and every time I use it I think ‘the scent really reminds me of something from my childhood, but I don’t know what!’ I then proceed to mentally catalogue every lolly, ice cream, lip gloss, soap and shampoo from my younger years to pinpoint what it is.

Finally, it hit me last week. Did you ever have to take liquid penicillin? It was a pink, sticky liquid and it had a distinctly sweet cotton candy-ish kind of smell. That’s what Nivea Touch of Happiness Body Lotion smells like. It’s not a bad thing, it actually smells nice. Plus of course, because it’s Nivea it’s super-hydrating and really nice to use.

I prefer my daily body lotion in a pump-top bottle purely for ease of use, but I don’t mind the flip top lid because it smells so good. Talk about cheap thrills.
