Natural Beauty Inside Out
More often than not, I get comments from readers about mixing their skin care products and I wonder if it’s a good thing. However, after reading The Japanese Skincare Revolution by Chizu Saeki and talking to Susan of True Beauty, it seems that some mixing may not be a bad idea. Here, I’ll chart out some of my thoughts on this topic.
So yeah…you’ve all guessed it right! It’s DHC that’s going to be launched in Watsons. In fact, if you’ve visited the store at Ngee Ann City, you probably would have seen the DHC Olive Essentials Set, which include the popular DHC Deep Cleansing Oil on display. And from tomorrow onwards, you can find the full range of DHC products at Watsons Bugis Junction, Compass Point, Ion, and Raffles City, besides Ngee Ann City. Other outlets will also roll out skin care products from the range progressively.
I have a major gripe! Over the weekend, I was looking to get a milk cleanser and checked those new organic brands at Watsons. All of them contain alcohol and some had the ingredient listed second on the list! This really bothers me and it doesn’t matter if they use plant-based alcohol or that the ingredient is certified as organic. Why can’t organic and natural skin care products be alcohol-free?
I was so excited when my order of the Naturopatch Rose Geranium Essential Oil Patches finally arrived last week from a LuckyVitamin spree. It so happened that these came during the onset of my PMS so it was really timely! The purple tin box is so pretty and once opened, I could smell the rose geranium. Of course I couldn’t wait to use the first patch right away!
My blogging buddy, Leon, not only has an eye on beautiful things, but is also very enterprising. Put the two strengths together and we now have JewelrySpice, an online store that provides chic and elegant fashion jewelry! And one of the first things she did was to ask me to pick an item from her store for myself!
