Introducing the new Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+! :D

A little over a month ago, I was invited to the secret preview event of the newly reformulated Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion+ from Clinique (Shall refer to it as the DDML+ from here on! :D) at the elegant Macalister Mansion in town. It was my first ever experience with this brand and product so I was mighty curious to find out more about! I knew that the old DDML was popular (this was confirmed when I attended the event - I learnt that a bottle was sold just under every 5 seconds! Wow!), but I'm surprised at just HOW popular it is! :D

Do you know that with the amount of DDML sold in the past 10 years, you can:

• Scale the Tokyo Skytree 119,635 times
• Wrap the globe 2.08 times
• Fill the Big Ben 1.77 times
• Run along the Great Wall of China 8.57 times
• Fill the Eiffel Tower 8.1 times

We all know that if something ain't broken, why change it right? Just how is the DDML+, well, dramatically different from its predecessor? Read on to find out!
