While I’ve identified a poor digestive system as one of my main skin nemeses, an organ that I need to pay greater attention to is actually my liver. It always been flagged out as a key indicator of concern whenever I consult TCM practitioners; nothing too serious but it’s been weakened and that has caused some skin issues for me particularly in recent years such as a duller skin tone, itchy skin, red spots and acne. The detox that I did helped improved my condition but I definitely need to do more to strengthen this organ.

My colleague just told me how she ended up paying S$2196 for getting her hair cut. Well, okay, the price for the haircut was $196 but she was sold a package which was priced at $2k, definitely not something she intended to fork out initially. The story goes like this: she saw an advertisement from a reputable hair salon promoting their haircut at a 50% discount. She decided to try them out because the owner used to be the personal hairstylist for some famous celebrity. The haircut turned out pretty normal and definitely nothing to rave about. Yet, she ended up paying a lot more just to enjoy 50% off his service!
