     Bali Botanica Day Spa

    As I approached Bali Botanica Day Spa in Ubud at 9am I was summoned to  the reservations desk by a gentle fragrance. I was greeted by Berto and he made me feel at home immediately.

I simply add a lighter or darker foundation shade drop by drop until I create the desired color. Seasons play a big factor in your skin’s tone. Lets face it, in the summer the sun gives…
