When performed regularly, a facial can result in noticeable improvements to skin tone, texture and appearance. A facial can also restore the skin’s normal balance of oil. Other results may include: skin softness; lifting and firming effects; increased circulation of blood to the face and a soothing sense of well-being. An added bonus would be that the professionally done facial is exceptionally relaxing and enjoyable.
At TRUE Bio Skin Care, we start off with a deep pore cleansing, followed by a detoxifying massage, special eye care treatment, a specific treatment for special needs, and then masking. We finally finish off with hydrating, nourishing and protecting (daytime) or repairing (night-time) the skin. The highly effective and all-natural range of TRUE Bio Skin Care premier products is used during facial sessions.
A face lifting massage may also be administered during the facial session to address the problem of ageing skin. It stimulates cell renewal and restores the skin’s elasticity, giving immediate lifting and firming to the skin.
We do not encourage painful manual extractions during facial sessions at TRUE Bio Skin Care unless the client specifically asks for them. Manual extractions done with too much force tend to injure the capillaries underneath the skin, causing redness, and are unsuitable for people with sensitive skin. TRUE Bio Skin Care products used during the facial session, coupled with massage, are able to clear most clogged pores while refining them at the same time.
Moreover, only natural ingredients derived from 100% pure, fresh plant essences are used during the facial. TRUE Bio Skin Care products are certified 100% free from chemicals, colourants, alcohol, fragrances or preservations and will not trigger skin sensitivity.
Going to a facial at TRUE Bio Skin Care may be akin to going for a detox session. Medications and other unhealthy skin care regimes may have acted to superficially suppress skin symptoms or conceal certain ailments. With its live and active ingredients working deep beneath the dermis to push out all deeply-embedded impurities to the surface, TRUE Bio Skin Care products treat skin problems deep at their root, more specifically at the cellular level. By pushing out all the toxins and impurities to the surface, some people, especially those with highly-congested skin, may experience the appearance of tiny pimples after a facial. Do not worry! The skin is working to balance itself naturally after years of harsh and chemically-laden product usage. This minor break-out lasts temporarily, after which the skin heals to a clear, healthy and radiant state.
Facials are designed to work on your skin from the neck up. Therefore, you may want to plan on not wearing any make-up, jewellery or contact lenses on the appointed day. Cosmetics can be applied after the facial session; however we would usually recommend you not to put on make-up directly after a facial session. This is to allow the skin to breathe and regenerate without any obstruction. Men may want to be clean-shaven before a facial session for practical hygiene reasons. Other than these few easy steps, simply be ready to relax and enjoy yourself.
Please arrive 10 minutes before the appointed time to prepare yourself for the facial session. Your unfortunate delay may hold up all pre-arranged schedules. Nobody likes to be kept waiting anyway; punctuality is always much appreciated.
Please inform us 48 hours in advance if you can’t keep an appointment especially during the weekends. The allocated time slot has been specially reserved for you. “No-shows” or late cancellations are a huge no-no as costs are also incurred.
You will be asked to complete a brief, confidential client information card, which will aid the esthetician in determining the appropriate treatment for your skin. After being escorted to the cosy facial room, you will be asked to lie down on a comfortable treatment bed. The skin therapist will then place a coverlet over you to protect your clothing and ensure your comfort. After which, your hair will be pulled back with the help of a headband. The treatment will begin with the skin therapist cleansing and analyzing your skin under a bright magnifying lens. Using the information from your client card and skin analysis, she will recommend the appropriate treatment or discuss how the particular facial you have chosen will benefit your skin.
The purpose of a facial is to help correct any skin ailments and preserve the long term health of the skin. We do not expect your skin to be flawlessly perfect or blemish-free. If you are experiencing any skin problems or have questions about whether a facial would be appropriate for you, please consult our friendly estheticians. They will be more than happy to offer you a free skin analysis and advise you accordingly.
TRUE Bio Skin Care’s range of products is not formulated to be harsh on the skin at all. They are suitable for all skin types, even hyper-sensitive skin. This does not take away the fact that the live and active ingredients in TRUE Bio Skin Care formulations are indeed potent and highly effective in treating various skin ailments.
Facial scrubs in the market usually contain beads or coarse granules to exfoliate the skin, revealing a new layer. However, they are essentially ripping the skin and may cause the skin to react adversely with redness, coarseness, thinning and even premature ageing overtime. TRUE Bio Skin Care products are specially made to help the skin achieve its own natural balance i.e. the active ingredients nourishes the basal layer where new skin cells are being produced, helping to expedite the natural exfoliation process. So no harsh manual exfoliation is required.
Moreover, the live and active plant ingredients help push out all deeply embedded impurities to the surface to be cleansed away, preventing the formation of blackheads, milia and acne.
Only all natural and plant-based ingredients are used in the formulation of TRUE Bio Skin Care products. The products are certified 100% free from chemicals, colourants, alcohol, fragrances or preservations. They are gentle yet effective on sensitive or hyper-sensitive skin. In fact, we would recommend the Phyto Balancing Basic Set for people with sensitive skin. Those with hyper-sensitive skin might want to complement the Phyto Balancing Basic Set with the additional use of the Cell Soothing Concentrate that effectively help alleviate skin redness and strengthen the skin’s tissues.
Our products are gentle and suitable for those with eczema. Only all natural and plant-based ingredients are used in the formulation of TRUE Bio Skin Care products. The products are certified 100% free from chemicals, colourants, alcohol, fragrances or preservations. We have numerous testimonies of people with eczema who have experienced tremendous results after using our products.
This of course is very much dependent on the skin’s condition and the regularity of correct product usage. A daily regime incorporating a full basic range will see the skin’s tone dramatically evening out, pores becoming more refined and the skin’s sebum production balancing out nicely within two weeks.
When transitioning to a natural and pure product range like TRUE Bio Skin Care, your skin needs to undergo a period of acclimation to a totally different way of caring for the skin.
Medications and other unhealthy skin care regimes may have acted to superficially suppress certain symptoms or conceal certain ailments in the past. With its live and active ingredients working deep beneath the dermis to push out all deeply-embedded impurities to the surface, TRUE Bio Skin Care products treat skin problems directly at their root, more specifically, at the cellular level.
By pushing out all toxins and impurities to the surface, some people, especially those with highly-congested skin may experience the appearance of tiny pimples. Don’t fret! This is your skin’s way of telling you that it is cleansing itself internally. This minor break-out lasts temporarily, after which the skin heals to a clear and healthy state.

Studies in recent years have shown that stress, just like harsh external environmental factors, is detrimental to the skin, contributing to the appearance of a dull and lifeless complexion. Unrelenting stress wrecks havoc on the body’s hormonal level, adversely affecting the function of the skin. The skin becomes more oily, clogged and prone to breakouts. The immune cells are also activated in response to stress, triggering itchiness and skin inflammation; the skin becomes irritable and flaky. Stressed skin is damaged skin. It needs to be soothed and requires help in regaining its natural balance and clarity.
Start off your daily skin care regime with the Phyto Balancing Basic Set. This range is specially formulated from the active plant hormone, phytosterol, to help balance the skin cells and prevent sebaceous glands from over-producing oil. Complement the regime with the Anti Acne Essence. The essence helps reduce the amount of breakouts, remove toxins and relieve inflammation, soothing and healing the skin. Use the Cell Luminous Essence or Concentrate to lighten blemish spots and make the skin glow with radiance.
The act of squeezing blackheads can cause broken capillaries and discoloration, especially if done on sensitive skin. Blackheads (medically termed open comedomes) are caused by excess sebum and dead cells that become trapped in pores not covered by skin. The clogs are exposed to air, causing the cells and sebum to oxidize, resulting in the dark colour of a blackhead. Clogged pores lead to skin textures becoming unattractively coarse.
Exfoliating with facial scrubs containing beads or cleansers containing AHAs are usually recommended as ways of removing and preventing the formation of blackheads. It has been said that exfoliating removes the excess skin cells on the surface of the face, so they do not build up in the pore. However, over-exfoliating with cleansers that contain granules or beads can lead to the thinning of the skin, causing premature ageing and irritate the skin. AHAs are also not recommended for people with sensitive complexion and they tend to sensitise normal skin types, causing redness, blisters or rashes in some cases.
Adopt a daily skin care regime with the help of the Essential Series Basic Set. The Moisturising Cleanser deeply cleanses the skin by removing all traces of dirt and dead cells from the pores. It also pushes out all deeply embedded impurities to the surface to be cleansed away. The Hydrating Tonic helps shrink enlarged pores. Incorporate the Revitalising Massage Lotion and Cream at least once a week to slough off dead cells without harming the active cells, preventing the pores from clogging.
Pores are tiny openings in your skin that serve as passageways for oil glands underneath to lubricate the surface of the skin. Pores become enlarged when the production of oil increases usually during puberty. The pores become bigger to cope with the increased oil production. The presence of blackheads also tends to expand pores and magnify their appearance.
Adopt a daily skin care regime with the help of the Phyto Balancing Basic Set. The Moisturising Cleanser deeply cleanses the skin while the Hydrating Tonic helps shrink enlarged pores and has healing and anti-bacterial qualities. Complement the regime with the Cell Repair Essence to further refine pores and eliminate any visible scarring from acne.
Whiteheads or milia, medically termed as closed comedones, look like small grains of sand under the skin. They usually occur around the delicate eye area. They are caused by the accumulation of sebum and dead skin cells in a pore covered by skin. Since the trapped materials are not exposed to air, they remain white unlike blackheads. They are especially hard to get rid of since they are trapped underneath a layer of skin.
Adopt a daily skin care regime with the help of the Essential Series Basic Set. Milia can be removed in a painless way through facial massage. Incorporate the Revitalising Massage Lotion and Cream on top of your basic regime. The removal of the milia seeds is not immediate, however, unlike the more intrusive and painful method of using a needle to extract the seed directly. However, after consistent use of the Massage Lotion and Cream, the milia seeds will be eliminated. Massaging also has its other more immediate benefits like removing dead cells without harming live ones, firming, lifting and activating cell renewal.
Some cosmetics, especially those that are oil-based, contain ingredients that clog up pores, adding to the build up of sebum underneath the skin. Sleeping with make-up on and not removing make-up thoroughly after a day’s work compounds the problem as well.
Aim for a healthy-looking and flawlessly smooth and even complexion to minimise the need for the use of thick make-up to conceal blemishes and flaws. We recommend that you adopt a basic regime with the help of Phyto Balancing Basic Set. We do not have a toner in our range as toners contain alcohol which is known to sensitise skin. The Phyto Balancing Cleanser deeply cleanses the skin and pores, washing all make-up thoroughly away. For water-proof make-up like mascara and eye-liner, we recommend that you use a small amount of natural caster oil to wipe them off. The Phyto Balancing Tonic and Repair Cream helps in normalising the skin’s secretion of sebum, eliminates comedones and strengthens the skin’s self-healing ability. Complement the regime with the Anti Acne Essence to combat acne and pimples as well as the Cell Luminous Essence or Concentrate to give the skin a natural glow and lighten discoloration caused by blemishes.
Remember that the skin around the eye area is a lot different than the rest of the face. There are no oil glands there, so skin tends to get dry and prone to fine lines. Use an eye gel that has been specially formulated for this delicate area as the skin of the eye area is much thinner and can’t absorb heavier products.
Use the light but extremely potent Active Eye Gel which is absorbed by the skin very quickly to eliminate puffiness as well as signs of fatigue. It relaxes and soothes the tissue around the eye preventing dark eye rings from appearing. For stubborn dark rings, complement the Eye Gel with the Cell Luminous Essence or Concentrate. Deep Lines or wrinkles can be eliminated fast with the addition of the Cell Renewal Concentrate.
The sun is the number one reason why the skin ages. UVA rays penetrate deep into the skin and destroy the support structure of the skin, causing the surface to appear wrinkled. UVB rays affect the surface of the skin, and will cause the skin to burn, leading to early signs of ageing.
Start a daily regime with either the Essential or Phyto Basic Set depending on your skin type. The Daily Defence Cream contains natural Dermascreen which absorbs 50% of the sun’s UVA and 85% of the sun’s harmful UVB rays. It helps the skin to fight photo ageing and free radical damage from sun exposure, protecting the skin against environmental pollutants. For people who spend prolonged periods of time in the sun, slather on some sunscreen for additional protection.
During puberty, hormonal levels begin to change in the body. The imbalance of these hormones in adolescence results excessive sebum production. Excess sebum provokes the skin cells in your pores to rapidly shed. When the pore becomes clogged by trapped sebum and dead skin cells it creates a breeding ground for bacteria. As your skin tries to deal with the bacteria, it becomes inflamed, eventually causing a full-blown breakout. To stop this cycle, you need to control all four trigger factors: excess sebum, pore-clogging dead skin cells, acne bacteria and inflammation.
Start off your daily skin care regime with the Phyto Balancing Basic Set. This range is specially formulated from the active plant hormone, phytosterol, to help balance the skin cells and prevent sebaceous glands from over-producing oil. Complement the regime with the Anti Acne Essence. The essence helps reduce the amount of breakouts, remove toxins and relieve inflammation, soothing and healing the skin. Use the Cell Luminous Essence or Concentrate to lighten blemish spots and make the skin glow with radiance. If the skin is clogged and highly congested, use the Cell Metabolism Essence to speed up the clearing of congestion by activating the skin’s metabolism to strengthen cellular structure, reduce inflammation and tighten pores.
A common misconception is that acne only affects teenagers. But more than ever, adults are suffering from it.
One of the primary catalysts of adult acne is chronic stress. Heightened levels of stress throw our adrenal glands into overdrive, wrecking havoc on our body’s hormonal levels. This in turn can boost sebum production, setting the stage for acne development.
Adult acne is usually more pervasive in women due to the unbalanced hormone production during menstrual cycles.
Eczema can occur on almost any part of your body although it is typically on the face, neck, ankles, elbows and knees. The most important thing you can do for eczema is to stop scratching the skin. Scratching only makes it worse. Symptoms of eczema come and go. They may be triggered by harsh cleanser or household cleaning products. There is no cure but there are things you can do to keep your skin smooth and clear and keep outbreaks under control.
Our products do not contain any harsh chemicals, fragrances, preservatives or alcohol that may sensitise or aggravate eczema. In fact, our cleansers are so gentle that they can be used on babies. However, the way an individual’s skin reacts to a particular range of products varies from person to person. Please do a patch test first on a small area of your arm to observe your body’s reaction to our products. We do, however, have clients telling us how the products have worked so well for their eczema, improving and soothing their skin condition tremendously. We recommend that you start off your daily skin care regime with the Phyto Balancing Basic Set that is specially formulated to treat skin ailments holistically.
Exposure to harsh chemicals and other irritants present in low quality skin care products can result in the skin becoming highly sensitised over time. People with sensitised skin should avoid products with fragrances, synthetic chemicals and other commonly used irritants to help prevent itching, redness and aggravation of symptoms. The phenomenon of skin experiencing sensitivity can also be due to environmental assaults, poor diet and the natural aging process.
Originally sensitive skin is usually hereditary and is usually found in fairer skin types. This could be caused by the lower amount of melanin and a thinner epidermal skin layer
We recommend that you start off your daily skin care regime with the Phyto Balancing Basic Set that is specially formulated to treat skin ailments holistically. The Phyto Balancing Tonic helps to strengthen the skin’s self-healing ability, counter hyper sensitivity and inflammation, and has an astringent effect on pores. The Phyto Balancing Repair Cream controls the secretion of sebaceous glands and helps stabilise the metabolism of sensitive skin, reducing incidents of redness. In cases of hyper sensitivity, it is good to complement the regime with the Cell Soothing Essence or Concentrate for faster treatment of the ailment.
Acne scars formed on the face are, more often than not, caused by inappropriate squeezing. If the injury only affects the surface layers of the skin (epidermis), a temporary dark mark is formed. However, if the deeper layer of the dermis is affected, a scar is left.
Depending on your skin condition, start off your regime with either the Essential Series Basic Set or Phyto Balancing Set. We do not believe in chemical peels that are harsh on the skin or painful invasive treatments. Our all-natural treatments utilises high grade concentrated plant extracts that are carefully selected for their inherent healing abilities and the power of breakthrough technology. The Cell Repair Essence repairs damaged skin structure around acne and scars, regenerating new tissue. You might also use the Cell Luminous Essence and Concentrate as they are able to lighten and eliminate pigmentation caused acne marks.
Dry skin can be caused by a number of factors: genetics, age, weather, lifestyle, the sun and over-cleansing.
There is also a widespread misconception that dehydrated skin is the opposite of oily skin. “Dehydrated” refers to lack of moisture (not a lack of oil), while “oily” refers to levels of sebum or oil on skin. While adequate sebum does help maintain water levels on skin, oily skin can be dehydrated. There are simple ways to replenish lost moisture and lock it in.
TRUE Bio Skin Care products help the skin balance itself naturally. By aiding the natural exfoliation process, dead skin cells are removed evenly. After which, hydrating ingredients can penetrate deep into skin to treat the root of the ailment, easing dehydrated skin conditions. Moisture is also locked in and not lost easily when the protective acid mantle is restored.
We recommend that you start off your daily regime with the Essential Series Basic Set that is able to treat dry skin holistically at the root. The appearance of scaly skin may denote skin sensitivity; you may want to apply the Skin Soothing Essence or Concentrate to accelerate healing and soothe the condition.
Age spots - tan, brown or black spots - are primarily caused by years of sun exposure. Other factors include medication, hormones, pollution and stress. These spots are common on exposed areas of the skin: the back of the hands, face and legs. Unprotected skin protects itself by producing an overabundance of melanin – melanin darkens upon sun exposure, resulting in uneven patches. Age spots develop when the extra melanin becomes clumped together or is produced in higher concentrations than normal. Freckles are common in lighter skin types in individuals who sunburn easily. Those who tan extensively will also have them on the shoulders, back, chest and many other areas of skin.
Depending on your skin condition, start off your regime with either the Essential Series Basic Set or Phyto Balancing Set. Pigmentation may be lightened with the use of the Cell Luminous Essence or Concentrate. They are formulated with Rosehip extracts to lighten and eliminate discolouration such as freckles, liver spots and pigmentation. Cowberry extracts in the essence and concentrate also contains natural whitening properties. Please note that the first few times after use, pigmentation spots may seem more prominent due to the rest of your face brightening up considerably. However, after continuous use, the stubborn pigmentation spots will gradually lighten and will be eliminated over time. The Daily Defence Cream also contains natural Dermascreen to shield the skin from the sun’s harmful rays that causes premature ageing and pigmentation.
As we age, our skin's collagen and elastin network, and its hyaluronic acid layer, gradually breaks down, reducing the skin’s ability to support and retain moisture. As a result, wrinkles start to appear, especially around the delicate eye areas. The skin also starts to sag more prominently around the thin eye area.
Boost your skin's ability to lift, hydrate and firm. Introduce the Essential Series Basic Set for moisture and speedy rejuvenation in areas starting to show lines. Remember to use the Active Eye Gel for effective removal of dark rings, eye bags and fine lines in the eye areas. The addition of the Cell Renewal Essence or Concentrate addresses the problem of stubborn wrinkles effectively and transforms ageing skin into youthful, radiant and healthy-looking skin.
As we age, our blood circulation slows down resulting in a lack of nutrients and stimulation to the skin. The tissue along the jaw line and neck loses its elasticity, causing the skin to hang or stretch lower, creating what most call 'a turkey neck.' The facial muscles also begin to weaken and gravity encourages it to droop.
You can start a daily regime with the Essential Series Basic Set for mature skin. Stop the process of aging by using the Cell Renewal Essence or Concentrate that specifically targets skin cells that produce collagen and elastin. Skin tautness is increased with regular use, combating your sagging jaw frustrations.
