It also has knotgrass extract to prevent premature ageing by minimising loss of collagen, and Alteromonas ferment extract, which helps to facilitate metabolic removal of pollutants and waste.

Suitable for all skin types, they contain shea butter so your hands will be hydrated and soft.

RESTORE YOUR HAIR
Many experience hair loss due to a myriad of reasons, which can cause your self-esteem to take a hit. PHS Hairscience’s Miracle Stem Cell Solution treatment promises to help restore thick, youthful hair. How it supposedly works: Inactive and dormant follicle stem cells are awakened by a potent cocktail of nano-sized growth factors, peptides and cytokines. Together with patented Sig Grow cell signalling technology, this helps to restore healthy hair growth cycles. The 45-minute, non-invasive treatment is priced at $297. First-timers enjoy a trial price of $68, valid for the month of June.
PHS Hairscience Capsules are at #B2-40/41 Bedok Mall, and #B1-70/71 Parkway Parade. PHS Hairscience Labs are at #04-12 Wheelock Place, #05-25A/B Ngee Ann City and #04-34/35 Plaza Singapura. Visit www.phshairscience.com or call 6692-0662.

RADIANCE IN A BOTTLE
Korean luxury beauty brand Sulwhasoo’s biggest launch of the year sees an upgraded, fifth generation version of its iconic First Care Activating Serum.

The new and improved formula has five key ingredients – peony, rehmannia, lotus, Solomon’s seal and white lily – that offer 10 per cent more antioxidation benefits as compared to the existing formula. The result: skin that looks clear, radiant, elastic and hydrated.
