Browhaus Love – Browgraphy (Thread & Tweeze)
Was treated to a Browgraphy session with compliments from Browhaus – part of the Spa Esprit Group and Ciba Vision! Browgraphy includes lightening or darkening, in case your hair has been treated and no longer matches your brows and shaping, which was threading and tweezing. I’ve been having light/bleached hair for quite a while now, and I never thought of dying my brows. Okay I did but you can’t really use the same dye as you use on your hair. And I never thought of doing it myself lah. All I did was use a lighter brow shade to color in and fill my brows and then top it off with a brow mascara from…
InRed Japanese Magazine with Loewe Tote – Mook
Just got my mook from Kinokuniya, thanks to Fel and Keni who helped me buy it : D This bag is superrrrr cute. I usually don’t like pink stuff but I can’t resist it! No money to buy real Loewe bag lah. L for Ling! : 3 For $20.20, it’s quite worth it! Love the black handles.
I LOVE Blue and I want blue hair : (
I miss my hair in blue. These are some really nice and quite impossible combinations which I’d like to see on my head… But I’ll probably have no more hair left if i did it. I mean, like, Platinum BLONDE? Not possible for asian hair! : ( Really don’t feel like screwing with my hair since I spent so much on keeping it healthy. But it’s probably the only time my hair is so bleached! ARGHHHHH! (And hor, If i make it all blue, what color of eyebrows will go with blue hair?!?!) We just spotted a guy at Tampines Mall after our move who had blue-grey hair…
Zoya Edyta, CND Copper Shimmer + Essie Aruba Blue Swatches
Zoya Edyta was the color i’ve been waiting for! Was very excited when I saw the package in my mailbox. XD! It’s a gorgeous green-gold and it’s really unique. Unlike anything I’ve seen or had before. CND Copper Shimmer! I also received my CND Copper Shimmer (a layering polish) and just had to try it on on Edyta! It looks like it’ll look good on it. And it does really look quite nice! Just that it took some of Edyta’s uniqueness away. Turned Edyta into a bronzey color, and it was really a very subtle difference but it renewed the whole look. These were two coats: A comparison: (CND Copper shimmer on left, Edyta…
M.A.C Apply + Blend Brushes
Walked past M.A.C and ahhhhhhhh the brushes are in stock! Grabbed myself the apply + blend brushes, which consists of 4 brushes. 194SE 168SE 190SE 187SE So far i’m very pleased with the foundation and concealer brushes. Yet to try the stippling brush though! For SGD $100 a set, I think it’s quite worth it. Would have been better to get this from USA though (nordstrom exclusive), at $49.90 USD, I could have saved S$15!
Benefit + Polish Haul + China Glaze Jitterbug swatch!
My Benefit Palette & Claire’s mood polish flew back from USA with Carol, and my assorted polish haul just arrived this afternoon! Awesome! Assorted nail polish haul! Omg… CND, CG, Zoya!!!!
China Glaze Midnight Mission Swatch & How To Spot OPI Fakes
Blue. Glitter. *SOLD* Need I say more? Hurhur. China Glaze Midnight Mission from the Vintage Vixen Fall collection is one pretty and dark polish. I love blues~ It’s dark petrol blue, and not bright blue – somehow all my cameras seem to fail in capturing this so I had to photoshop the picture to it’s proper color. Speckled with a generous amount of silver glitter, and it’s pretty thick to apply but didn’t need any thinner. Opaque too, one coat actually did the trick but I did two coats just in case I have any bald/drag spots. Next up, China Glaze Jitterbug! ———– Came across someone on sg_beauty asking for help with identifying OPI fakes,…
Sherlock Holmes 2010 TV Serial – Brilliant!
No, not the one with Robert Downy Jr. and Jude Law lah. It’s a British serial aired most recently. Yang came back from the UK with 3 episodes of Sherlock Holmes and he made me watch the first episode with him. I wasn’t very agreeable with his recommendation of “The IT Crowd” and Dr Who, though nice and strangely captivating, was a little too weirdly filmed for me to swallow. But boy, I’m glad I did catch Sherlock Holmes! Sherlock Holmes is amazing. I was captivated by the tales filed into a modern day Sherlock Holmes serial starring Benedict Cumberbatch (giggles) as Sherlock Holmes, and and Martin Freeman as Dr John Watsons. I love the…

Hada Labo Gokujyun Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating Mask Review
Was given a pack of the Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Hydrating masks from the nice people fr3b.com, and tried it out most recently. Placed it in the fridge, and had it on my face after washing. First thought after taking out the mask: there was lots of leftover essence in it! Don’t waste! (i rubbed it all over my neck hahahaha). The mask was very fitting as compared to MBD and TFS, and I didn’t have to fold the mask to have it sit nicely on my face. That felt refreshing. The mask didn’t slide or slip down even though I moved about, and I removed it after 15 mins. It was refreshing for…
Nubar Purple Rain Glitter, Nubar 2010 & Zoya Charla swatches + Opi Romeo & Joliet
I’m addicted to sparkle and glitter. Gah. I had on… Nubar Purple Rain Glitter Darn pretty with all the blue, green, and red glitter flashes, but a tad too dull for me somehow. And boy, It chips/wears really fast. It’s also pretty tough to remove cos of all the glitter, though not as hard as Nubar Night Sparkle. After a week I was bored with it and topped it up with Nubar 2010 Pretty pretty opal. Zoya Charla It came along after just a day of applying Nubar 2010 and I HAD TO SWATCH IT. And one in sunlight: Look at all it’s sparkly goodness! *faints* I feel like a mermaid~ My BlackBerry’s camera almost…
Haircut + EKS Hydro-Nutritive Vitamins Complex
Finally had my hair’s damaged ends trimmed off. The sheep needed to cut his hair at WARS (Far East Plaza), so I ended up having the best head massage ever and got it trimmed lah. Tadah~ She did a little end curl thingy for me. This is after 1 whole day… Was too sleepy the day before (after the heavenly head massage) to take pics. : x I’m wearing my uber comfy Superdry tee! Yang got it from UK. They have stores in SG as well, and they’re sold in both Tangs Vivo & Orchard. It looks Japanese, but it’s actually an UK brand. Thanks Love! And during SALT (movie – Angelina Jolie’s hot though…
Kiehl’s Midnight Recovery Concentrate Review
I walked past Kiehl’s and I recalled that Michelle got the Midnight Recovery Concentrate and I was quite interested in trying it out. Asked for a sample and to my delight, they do give samples (after all, it’s quite an exp product at $90 for a full bottle) and I was more than happy to be able to try it out before purchasing the full sized one. It retails for $90 in Singapore, and $42 in the USA if i’m not wrong. : ) On the website, it promises: “One night. Two drops. Younger-looking skin by morning.” The potent 99.8% naturally-derived and paraben-free botanical elixir works all night to regenerate, repair and replenish the skin…
