Natural Beauty Inside Out
If you have liked last week’s challenge about unblocking your facial lymph nodes, you’re likely going to like this week’s challenge to massage the major acupressure points around your eyes to maintain them well. Again, I picked this up during my facial sessions at True Beauty and have been doing them quite consistently because it is very easy and takes very little of my time.
Last December, I received Sweetsation Therapy Sun*Brella Organic Triple Action Moisturizer with SPF 30+, currently rated the 4th best moisturizer with SPF by EWG. The product is now renamed as Sun”Si’Belle Organic Triple Action Moisturizer with SPF 30+ and Antioxidants and came compliments from Bellygoods, a Singapore webstore selling products from Sweetsation Therapy from USA.
Seems that every week I’m posting something about acne. Unfortunately, it’s a topic of concern to me currently so naturally, it’ll get a lot of attention here. Anyway, I’ve been thinking real hard about the cause of my acne and while I think it’s hormonal imbalance, I suspect that there could be other reasons triggering them.

I was told recently during a TCM treatment session that my constant backache is due to the epidural anaesthesia administered to relief my labor pain some years back. I hadn’t thought of that although Ive heard of the link between epidural anaesthesia and postpartum back pain. In fact, this is why some women I know refused to have the pain relief.
However, according to this medical source, any increased risk of low back pain after epidural anaesthesia is small and transient.
While I love my own DIY deodorant formulation, but I figured out that it might not be a good idea to load my body with too much essential oils since I use it on a daily basis. So when I saw this Dr Organic Pomegranate Deodorant in Jay Gee Health located at #B1-61 City Link Mall, I gave it a go. They also carry lavender, tea tree, manuka honey and aloe vera, but the store assistant recommended me the pomegranate one – that was the best of the lot according to her.
