Having an allergy to certain cleaning products proved to be a blessing in disguise for entrepreneur Tan Yet Mee. She knew she was not the only one with the condition and wanted to provide gentler cleaning products for others who may also have skin allergy issues.

“One in every 10 persons I speak to either needs detergents that are less harsh or suitable for sensitive skin, or knows of someone who does,” says Tan, who is in her early 50s.
