10 things I Need these days



(1) Tiger Balm Plasters for pain relief and as a muscle relaxant, or any medicated sports plaster. Sometimes sitting in front of your computer creates stress on the shoulders and back, walking stresses out the legs and carrying groceries stresses out the arms. I prefer plasters to ointment as it doesn't stain the clothes and it stays on the spot you leave it at.


(2) Nin Jiom Herbal Candy for motion sickness and nausea. It's sold by the bottle as well, but I find candies easier to carry around and consume. I also prefer the original formula coz that's what works, not so sure about the new flavors like apple etc.


(3) Medicated Oil for tummy aches and pain relief. There are many brands of Chinese medicated oil available in the shops and its all hot/cold on the skin, although effects and scents are varied. The latest one I received is Yu Yee Oil that smells like nutmeg & paraffin glue.


(4)  Panadol pills for pain relief, its non-addictive and has no major side effects. There's a wide variety of forms you can buy this in like water soluble, minis etc. Good for headaches, cramps and just about any recurring pain.


(5) Anti-Bac Wet Wipes are essentials anytime I am inside or outside. It's an easy all-in-one coz with the spray or gel you still need to wipe it clean or leave it to dry.


(6) Redoxon Vitamin Effervescent Tablets that turn plain water into fizzy fruit juice, best part is you don't even need to stir it. I limit myself to one a day, it replaces fruit juice and multivitamins in my diet.


(7) Facial Masks, tissue & disposable. It's hydrating for the skin and also cooling after you've been out in the sun all day, in Singapore its almost everyday. 


(8) Cotton Tips for spot cleaning and spot application, also good for cleaning out the ears. I use it with this audiclean product that can be found in local pharmacies.


(9) Sanitary Napkins/Adult Diapers. Adult diapers are sanitary pads + disposable underwear, its more expensive but for guys they really have no choice. 


(10) Oxy pimple cream or what I am currently using is a Korean brand Onsaemeein Magic Solution Skin Powder (anti-pimple solution). It soothes inflammation, preventing redness and itchiness. It also dries up blood or pus.
