KLab offers two weight-loss formulas that promise results. Slim&Control ($228, 60 tablets) ensures your body receives the nutrients it needs throughout your weight-loss journey, while Smoothie Enzyme&Detox ($59, 20 sachets) improves your overall body wellness through detoxification and cleansing processes.

Upon completion of KLab Slim&Control and/or Smoothie Enzyme&Detox, a $10 cashback will be awarded for each 1kg lost.

The Shizuku Collagen Pomegranate Jelly ($59.90, 15 sticks) is produced using the latest Nano TRI-Collagen Peptide technology and infused with Mount Fuji water that is packed with minerals.
