But from what I’ve heard (from most beauty experts), oily skin still needs to be moisturised daily. Thankfully, the beauty industry has evolved drastically to accommodate each beauty need.

Well, you all probably would have know that i recently visited What He Wants: The only shop for men’s personal grooming needs at The Cathay. It’s a cool shop which all men should spend some time browsing and trying out the products on display.
You can thank Nurul for this review. I wasn’t personally interested in getting any products. (Although I was eyeing the super smooth shaving brush and the uber-cool shaver.
