Keep cancer at bay
When it comes to fighting cancer, the good news is that many kinds are subject to delay or avoidance by making smart lifestyle choices. Some of the behavioral tweaks recommended by a leading cancer doctor may surprise you.

Give some lip
As we age, our lips become thinner and lose their definition because our bodies produce less collagen. "Other than applying lip balm, fillers will be the best way to deal with these problems," said Dr Abraham Yam, a specialist in medical aesthetics.

Gently does it
If strong fragrances and chemicals make you break out in rashes, you need special care for your skin. Lavera's Neutral Facial Fluid (HK$179) is a light but hydrating organic moisturizer for skin that is prone to allergies and eczema.

Need for sleep
Why are so many of us having trouble getting a good night's sleep? Let us count the ways: we are overcaffeinated (coffee, soft drinks, energy drinks, snacks) and overmedicated (prescription drugs, including alcohol), wreaking havoc with slumber patterns.

Double booster
Even out your complexion with a powder compact that is also skin care. Clarins Whitening Powder Foundation SPF30 (HK$310) has a double whitening effect.

Treat your toes
Creator of the famous nightspot dragon- i Gilbert Yeung has launched Ten Feet Tall, a foot massage center in Hong Kong.

Fish boost for cancer survivors with chronic fatigue
Breast cancer survivors who eat a healthy dose of omega-3 fats - found largely in oily fish such as salmon, tuna and mackerel - may have some extra energy throughout their day.

Burned-out kid athletes
A growing number of young athletes are focusing on playing a single sport, putting themselves at greater risk of serious injuries, physicians said.

Night-time helper
Let your skin repair itself while you sleep. Missha's Time Revolution Night Repair Science Activator Ampoule (HK$558) contains a patented Triplex- Activating System.

Lemony freshness
With the recent reports about the amount of lead found in lip glosses, it is a relief to find one that prides itself on being all- natural. Lanolips' Lemonaid Lip Aid (HK$160) is made of ultra medical- grade lanolin and organic lemon oil.

You've been warned
It might be a caffeine headache, but it might be an aneurysm. Great. Now, at the very least, it's a stress headache.
