Natural Beauty Inside Out
This TRUE Bio Skin Care Moisturising Cleanser has to be the best facial cleanser I’ve ever come across by far. A 100% natural foaming cleanser containing cucumber extracts, lemon oil, rosemary oil and wheat germ oil that keeps my face really clean without stripping the natural lipids!

So how effective is this for me?

So when I learnt that Polished Hand & Foot Spa at Siglap is offering a revolutionary new concept by bringing standards of hygiene in nail care not seen this side of the globe, I was curious to check them out.
This week’s challenge sounds really easy but in reality, I think it’s rather difficult to achieve for some of us because of our busy lifestyles. In fact, most of you are probably thinking that it doesn’t matter what time you sleep as long as you achieve 8 hours of rest right? Well, unfortunately no. There is an optimal time to sleep which I’ve written about before which is between 11 pm to 3 am but I later found out that it’s even better to sleep by 10 pm. Why?
