When our skin complexion shows healthy luster on face, it reflexes our body organs is healthy with strong immunity system, and well functioning of the eternal body, blood and energy flows. 

Although the good quality of skincare is a necessity in maintaining a healthy skin complexion, but the psychological factors like stress and accumulated toxins that inside our body can be harmful to our skin. I always believe Inner organs balancing will achieve outer beauty, firstly is to take care of your body internal organs.








Our face is like mirror image that can reveals how healthy our body internal organs, blood and Qi in healthy condition. Even the face reading it involve in reading the fortune, health and its energies.

When the body system getting weakens, this is the effect that manifest on our face, which the attempt of our skin try to expel the accumulated toxins from our body system. So as the skin disorder and sign of dark spots may show on the face as warning sign.






As our body is an energy system organism, in Chinese medicine theory of meridian channel, this overall each internal organs organization has the different function, and affects them in the physiology mutual influence, in the pathology the mutual connection and restricts mutually.
