How do you get Ultra good skin?


Beauty specialists of any sort (skin docs, makeup artistes, celebs) always say that nothing beats having adequate sleep to give you beautiful, glowing skin, no matter how good your skincare products are. How do you have enough sleep as a mother of a young child, I wonder?

I've read in articles that Fann Wong loves her coffee, drinks lots of green tea, and of course everyone knows that she has bird's nest everyday. Top those with her Bella skincare treatments. So you need a combi of all four to have glowing skin? You may not like Fann but you got to admit she has beautiful skin.

How about skin supplements like Imedeen and Fancl? I've been tempted to try these but I don't like the thought of eating more supplements other than Vit C and Calcium.
What works for me? I think fairly good skincare and sufficient sleep helps. I'm blessed with good skin genes. Now if only I can get enough sleep everday...

Since I'm on the topic of skincare, I use Kiehl's (and Simple cleanser) and I like it. They recently brought in the Ultra Facial range of cleanser and toner to Singapore. But I was appalled at how much they cost here. I paid only USD17.50 (about SGD24) thereabouts for each when I went to the US in March, and it was good thing I bought a few bottles of each to keep. Because they cost SGD41 each here! SGD41 for an all-skin-type cleanser?! I'll have to switch to another brand of cleanser and toner after I'm done with my existing stash.
