“All you need is love. But a little chocolate now and then doesn't hurt.” – Charles M. Schulz. It’s that time of the year when expressing love in a more blatant way is expected - sending flowers to a significant someone, going out to fancy dinners, giving out love letters, and not to mention the glaring display of Cupid and heart designs are rampant. With all these activities, you can literally say that love is in the air. 

New year’s resolution can be pretty exciting. There is even somehow a trend for these resolutions. People who love going to the gym has their own ‘make-your-own-lunch’ challenge. Those who detest reading books will try to read even a small pocketbook. And those who can’t resist splurging will make a ‘No Spending’ dare for the year. The same goes for oenophiles. The world of wine is growing more and more dynamic (and so are the wines to explore!).

Drinking wine really has its fair share of benefits. But wine doesn’t just stop there. Do you know that wine is also present in skincare! Wine is actually one of the most interesting ingredients found in skincare today. Tracing back history, the idea of using wine for skincare purposes has been in the around since the Medieval ages. It is said that elite or the upper class would use grape seeds to exfoliate their skin making it supple and soft.
