Practical Charm

It's a darn well known fact that spices were regarded as a precious item of barter in the centuries of exploration due to it's flavour enhancing properties. But I also believe that spices have great body regulating and muscle relaxant qualities.

I have been using ginger infused products to calm my muscles after a long hard day's work, and after a shoppung trip with Minishorts, I stumbled upon a jar filled with Cinnammon Soap at a Harnn Natural Home Spa's branch in Bangsar One.

It's fresh ground cinnamon scent is good enough to give you a tantric sense of relaxation. Filled with itty bits of grains to exfoilate the skin it sends tiny sears of warm sensations inbetween my muscles and joints that makes me feel all relaxed and internally massaged after my bath.

Total relaxation and rejuvenation in a fresh bar.

Do you have one of those days that you indulge yourself in finger licking good dishes with bowl-loads of sauces? Then when you walk to the tap to find out that there is no water running to wash your hands?

It doesn't have to happen everyday but day in and day out, I can actually feel grime and dirt accumulate on my hands and it gives this really uncomfortable feeling.

Being a sucker for anything that's easy to carry around, this is a must for any tissue pack carrying obsessed female. Simply squeeze and rub. If your hands are super dirty, you may see and feel little balls of dirt on the hands. It's a fast drying and fast acting cleanser gel and I enjoy using it especially when I have to use my fingers to touch up on facial makeup. And we don't want any dirt on our face, yes siree.

Using any hand held materials for public use during entertainment? (e.g. cue sticks, bike handles, gloves for archery or rock climbing) The stench of sweat from other people's palm end up on yours you say? Then this is the baby for you.

For the lazy folks like me, It saves me that trip to the toilet when my stilettos are killing me just to wash my hands, or I'll use it when there is just NO SOAP. What's more it's even more affordable than some small bottles of liquid hand soaps!
