Katerina Lai’s earliest memory of the iconic Raffles City has always been the Christmas lighting. There is nothing more beautiful than a tall tree reaching up to the heavens with its leaves ablaze with warm colours that change.

Like most young professionals her age, Lai, a Raffles Prestige member, enjoys self-care and has a routine of baths and candles, which varies according to her schedule. A short self-care routine may consist of a hot shower and a beautifully scented soap, while a longer one may include a long soak in a bathtub, some candles, and a book.

That’s why her favourite stores are Diptyque (#01-05) for its Muguet or Lily of the Valley candle, and Aēsop (#01-44A), which stocks her favourite geranium leaf body cleanser.
Besides these boutiques, Raffles City has a wide variety of other stores selling self-care products. They include Acqua di Parma, Guerlain, and Maison Francis Kurkdjian.
