You follow a regular CTM routine, religiously apply foot and hand cream to nourish your skin, but what about the rest of your skin? Most often than not, we think simply washing and moisturising our body everyday does the job. Newsflash - it does not!

Like your facial skin, the skin on your body too requires a dedicated body care routine to remain smooth, silky and happy (read: problem-free). Don’t know where to start? We’ve got you covered. Ahead, we’ve mapped out the ultimate body care routine for your skin.
