The colors of caring

Sounds like trouble
Hong Kong is noisy. And if that were not enough, people vie for the highest pitch in order to be heard above the din. The result? Not only a vicious circle that pushes noise levels even higher, but likely irreparable damage to vocal cords.

Just add oil
The idea of slathering oil on your already greasy summer skin sounds a bit strange but The Body Shop Beautifying Oils (HK$159) actually have a non-greasy and non-sticky texture that won't clog your pores.
