Hi ruth, where are you coming from? It would be good to know so we can know how to advise you. Especially seeing you are new here. :wink:

Also, bring sun cream with you. It's bloody expensive here and hard to get anytihng less than factor 30!

Singaporeans (as well as chinese) like to have really pale skin so the choice of creams is limited to factor 30 and above. Buying moisturiser was an experience as allot of them contain whitening agents - me, I like the healthy bronzed look. (but not burnt leather)

Actually our OP is a spammer from India and was just testing the waters. We are starting to get a lot of them. They are relatively easy to spot hence my earlier post. You will notice that it's been over a week and not a peep from the OP. :cool:
