Tue, 3 January 2012 8:00AM
Facial Cloth Masks (FCMs) are not uncommon in most parts of Asia because of their convenience, cooling effect from the hot weather and availability. FCMs in Australia, however, are quite a rare commodity. And, while I do know that there’s quite a few brands (Olay, Neutrogena, Biotherm, shu uemura, SK-II, SkinVitals, Missha) that carry them… more

Tue, 20 December 2011 3:00AM
Today, I will be ranting about something that is very close to my heart and something that I rarely share with other people. Maybe some of you can relate.

In conjunction with PRIMPED’s Glorious Skin Month, I thought what’s a better time to talk about diet for something different. As much as we can cheat perfect skin with makeup, changing your diet can… more
