With so many pre-packaged beauty goodies out there, it can be refreshing to create your own. But for that, you need Aphrodesia, a beauty and spice ingredient haven. It has any-thing and everything you weren’t looking for but suddenly must have, allowing you to concoct your own everything—and by everything, we really mean everything. Search for hard-to-find ingredients for your favorite Malaysian dishes, or prove to your boyfriend that you can cook just like they do on the Food Network (actually, it can’t help you with that, Aphrodesia only provides the ingredients). You can even create personalized beauty recipes for family and friends. And no matter how the final product turns out, you’ll have fun along the way—providing you don’t melt down your house.
