    chinese cooling herbal tea does wonders too. theory behind it; helps to detox the body system. hence, minimizing on possibility of pimples surfacing

    oh yes the royal jelly skin product tt supposedly removes dead skin...then they also persuaded us to buy the ling zhi thingy which supposedly prevents cancer n stroke n alot of stuff, and the powder made from the mei2 hua1 lu4 or whatever it is for curing asthma :P i wonder if they really work..
  8.  
    haha i wash my face 3 times a day, my pimples still like that leh.
    i think it also got to go with you nature of your skin.

    bitter gourd is for lowering blood pressure la...
    if u dare, blend it into juice to drink...i dare not, i only dare to eat cooked ones...

    all the herbs are all abt balance and matching them correctly....not cos 1 herb has one gd effect then keep stuffing on tt...in TCM, it doesnt work this way...
    •  
      CommentAuthorcloudgal (CommentTimeApr 2nd 2008)
     
    yes of cos...the skin texture makes a diff too...
    btw, over washing will worsen hor...cos it will over strips away the natural defences tt skin has.

    eat fish skin lo...gd...

    less heaty, lesser chance of pimple outbreak too..
  9.  
    haha i love fish skin <3
    but i love heaty stuff too ):

    hmmm.... remember the ingredient for SKII?? they say the scientist found that the old ladies working all day long washing rice, had great complexion on the hands...

    so, next time, dont throw away the water after washing rice... collect enough & bath/ soak/ jacuzzi with it~!~! only after u bath in it, then use it for watering your plants... hehe (resource savings)

    anyway, prolonged usage might just do wonders.

      CommentAuthorcloudgal (CommentTimeApr 2nd 2008)
     
    hahah my mom uses tt water to water the plants...:)

    er...only a flat...toilet not big enuff for a jacuzzi/bathtub...so cannot soak la...

    she want perfect smooth skin what...the snow white soft supple kind like Korean/Jap chicks...so must stay out of sun...sun can cause sun burn or at time blemishes from over exposure to UV
  17.  
    of course a good promotion at work always helps...happier so more vibrant...

    the true secret to being youthful and good skin is HAPPINESS. =) happy people age slower heheheh

    now that BA is promoted she should be pretty happy.

    wakao, sg so hot, wear till lidat, wait ppl see her will get scared. maybe will get exorcist to rid her. cos they mistaken her as 1 from the other dimension leh. or maybe kaypo ppl will call police hotline, thinking she's contracted avian-flu or sars or some unknowned sickness leh.

    correct or not BA?? just coat yourself with HPF50+++ sunblock from head to toe can liao. so to prevent any possible hit from UV (indoors inclusive)

    FYI: some lamp sources emit UV as well... especially those jewellery shops that use HIT lamps
  18.  
    haha scully people suspect i am mas selamat if i wear like that.
    Sun is okay for me, if i become dark, a few days later will become white again.
  19.  
    hmm...what im gna say is nt really related to food but related to beauty...
    sleeping early is a gd way to prevent pimples! :)

    they say low fat carbo & vitamins (ideally- fruits & vege) 1st thing in the morning is supposed to do the complexion alota good. touted that fruits can give a better perk up instead of coffee/tea. cos, fruits have sugar... healthier too.

    reason; body's been "fasting" all night, hence better chance of absorbing the goodness in the breakfast (break fast)
  20.  
    if you guys wanna slim down, i recommend
    1. green lemon juice after every meal (not unripe! naturally green)
    2. wheat grass drink

    works for my family (:
