Her secret beauty tip is gua sha. And good skincare, of course.

Article Reader

She's known as the 'Zen goddess' to her fans, and indeed, the always calm and low profile Paige Chua says that having a relaxed state of mind is one of her secrets to looking 35 years young. The actress, recently appointed the face of Hada Labo Lifting + Firming skincare line, shares her anti-ageing skincare tips, which involves some good ol' TCM.

8 DAYS: You recently filmed Ch 8 army drama When Duty Calls. What are three skincare items you’d need if you were stuck on Tekong Island?

PAIGE CHUA: I'd go for pretty basic stuff like cleanser, sunscreen and moisturiser. The cleanser can be for dual use — I’d use it to wash my body as well as my face. I need a sunscreen for obvious reasons, as I’d be under the sun a lot and I have to protect myself. As for a moisturiser, I’d need it if I get sunburnt! (Laughs)

As an actress, being under the sun all day for a shoot is very real. How do you deal with that?
