Hair Makeover - Colouring : Keolleo Bar

I have been in short hair for a while and since the last cut, my remaining bleached hair is still around. So, I give it a thought to dye my hair and cut it again since my hair is getting longer.

Visited Kelleog Bar at Bugis Cube which is located on the level 2nd floor to get my hair done. When I reached the place, I was amazed by its pink theme and the nice setup of the shop. This shop particularly is for beauty services, one of the examples is eyelashes. 

Super Hair Removal : La Vie Aesthetics

If you guys have been doing waxing and shaving away your unwanted hair, it's time to put aside all your razor and the painful waxing. There is a smoother way to do and achieve a better permanent result. I have visited La Vie Aesthetics to get my hair removal done. 

They use SHR - Super Hair Removal, a newer technology than IPL, which uses low energy and rapid pulsing diode laser but at a higher frequency. This technology allows the skin to be heated gently with a rapid pulse yet improved efficacy. SHR targets both fine and coarse hair. The cooling technology helps you feel discomfort and pain. 

Islandwide Cake Delivery - Dig in Cakes

With the Christmas and New Year sessions around the corner, it might be hard for us to have a last-minute plan for our sweet tooth. Most of the desserts shop might be fully booked or the order is fully booked. But not to worry too much, I am going to share with you guys the islandwide 24/7 that I stumbled upon. 

Dig in Cakes provides wallet-friendly fresh cakes with more than 50 different flavours and an islandwide delivery service 24/7. Besides cakes, they also have fresh flower bouquets, preserved flower domes, and balloons to complete your birthday party or any occasion. With just a few clicks here, you get to see their pretty cakes and props.

They are known to provide premium quality cakes with a wallet-friendly price starting from $29.90. 

I got my Yuzu Osmanthus Cake with them. Honest review, I really like the cake. The texture was so soft, and the sweet and sour taste of the yuzu was good enough to balance out the flavour. The cake is not as sweet as I thought and is topped with dried osmanthus flowers.

The cakes are not just limited to fruit cake, but they have different flavours such as durian cake, tea cakes, chocolate cake, cheesecake and many more.

For orders above $100, you get to enjoy free same-day delivery right to your doorsteps. They also provide a 1-hour and midnight delivery option for last-minute orders.

My Laser Journey after IDS Skincare

Recently I have had some breakouts on my face. I felt annoyed by a few sudden breakups. I wasn't sure what were the causes. It could be because of my hormonal changes or too heaty or not enough sleep. I made a trip down to IDS to get my skin consulted. We were planning to do a laser a few months ago, but because my skin condition wasn't stable, it wasn't advisable to do a laser that works for the scars. Instead, IDS suggested doing Aerolase Laser which, is suitable for acne.

Since my skin condition has changed, I was asked to stop using the Recovery Serum ideal for sensitive skin and added on the new skincare, Blemish Mist from IDS Skincare. This new product serves an anti-blemish purpose. 

Collagen Supplement Review : LAO XIE ZHEN Collagen Beauty Essence

COLLAGEN... COLLAGEN... We have heard about collagen anywhere, and it seems to be in everything and is described as healthy ingredient.

What is Collagen? Simply put, collagen is the most abundant component of the extracellular matrix (ECM), constituting 75% of skin structure. It has multiple purposes and functions. As a key factor in preserving skin firmness and elasticity, it plays a vital role in skin health, which can help you maintain your complexion.

There are many varieties of collagen supplements in the market, but not all are created equal. Some collagen supplements may contain sugar, isoflavones, artificial flavouring, stabiliser or preservatives. Thus, it is important to read the product label and ingredients while choosing the best one.

I was introduced to try Award-winning Collagen Supplement by Daily Vanity in 2021, Lao Xie Zhen Collagen Beauty Essence, launched in 2020.

Teeth Whitening Secret: LA VIE AESTHETICS

Hey guys, if you have read my blog or been following my Instagram, I have shared about teeth whitening treatment at La Vie Aesthetics. If you have missed out on my teeth-whitening experience, you can read it here.

As a person with natural yellowish teeth, I am happy with the treatment result. With my regular treatment, my teeth are getting lighter and lighter from month to month. What surprised me was my teeth is sixteen shades lighter since the first visit. When we compare the result, I was as happy as sandboy with the improvement of my teeth's colour, and nonetheless, it builds up my confidence level over the months.

My Facial Journey with IDS Aesthetics

If you have been following me and reading my new skincare journey, you would know that I am currently with the IDS. If you have missed out, you can read about the experience here.

Last week after a month of my new skincare regime, I visited Dr Lum for the second review, and I had a facial treatment at the same time.

My skin hydration is getting better especially, my dryness under the eyes. It has improved a lot, and it was no longer dry and flaky under the eyes. During my second review, I shared with Dr Lum about a few acne that popped up on my face, and I told her about my dark circle issue. 

My Skin Journey with IDS Skincare

Last week, I made my first trip to the IDS at Novena Specialist Centre. It is an aesthetic clinic that offers innovative and effective treatments at an affordable price. They are three entities under IDS, the Innovative Dermatological Solutions namely - IDS Clinic, IDS Aesthetics, and IDS Skincare. At the IDS, you get to meet the aesthetic professional that assesses your skin and collects your skincare at the dispensary counter.

I was impressed by the cosy lounge where customers could rest while waiting for their turn. I like how big the waiting area it is. Even though few customers were sitting in the lounge but still there was ample space on another side. 

Beauty Products : Fresh Dailies

Happy Chinese New Year! New year, new beauty products!

Look at the new items that I got from the beauty store, Fresh Dailies

I used to have short hair for years. My hair was soft and silky, not much problem drying or styling it. After my hair is growing longer now, it gets frizzy easily, especially after washing it. Sometimes I get frustrated! It is not much about the shampoo problem since I have been using the same shampoo for years but it is my hair problem.

Online Fashion Shopping : SUI SUI FASHION

Hello February! 

We are in the second month of 2021 now. Having said that we are in a busy month preparing for Chinese New Year. Time to work on the CNY style for reunion dinner, and dress up your way into the vibe of Chinese New Year!

Sadly, we are not able to travel out of Singapore to get our favourite snacks and clothes. All these thanks to the pandemic of Covid-19! But we are fortunate enough to be able to have a small celebration with a limited household visit. 

I used to go to Malaysia to buy clothes but, due to the current pandemic, I am not able to do so. Btw, have you gotten your CNY outfits? Nowadays I prefer to shop online and also my busy schedule has made me hardly go out to shop. While looking for my CNY outfits, I came across to an online fashion store named Sui Sui Fashion. The physical stores are in Malaysia with few outlets in Kuala Lumpur and Johor Bahru.

I was so happy when I found out about this shop. I remembered I visited their shop before when I had my holiday in KL, but this was 2-3 years ago. 

Teeth Whitening : LA VIE AESTHETICS

I have been wanting to try teeth whitening to improve my bad discoloured teeth. I have stubborn yellow teeth. Even though I brush my teeth regularly, the yellow stains on my teeth remain the same. I thought of using a teeth whitening kit but, I am not ready yet.

I used to drink a lot of tea until I realised that I have a sleeping problem at night because of drinking too much tea. Do you know tea would also cause yellow stains on our teeth?

Just two weeks ago, I had my appointment with La Vie Aesthetics for my first-time teeth whitening treatment. Located at a convenient location at Orchard Gateway Level 4, they have an elegant and cosy interior look.

8CRABS : Singapore Sri Lankan Crab and Zhi Char

Hello everyone!

We are at phase 2 of the circuit breaker now. Even though dining out is allowed now but it's only limited to a group of 5 and the safe distancing measure of 1m is still in place.  Some restaurants might be crowded and advanced reservation is needed as the seating capacity is limited due to safe distancing rules. Takeaway and delivery have become our norm during circuit breakers and even now is still a good strategy to implement.

While I thought of changing my dinner choice to seafood, 8Crabs offered a complimentary voucher to try their AAA premium Sri Lankan Crab. It sounds like a good deal, so why not just take the offer right? Of course, I paid for the remaining excess order which I don't mind and before that, I already did my own research about their food.

Apparently, I learn something from the person I liaise with, as mentioned their crabs are sourced wild and farmed. Crabs naturally travel about 500m every night and prefer to live alone. Farmers breed many crabs in a confined space to be profitable. This causes the crabs to get stressed very easily in captivity, and produce ammonia, which is a sign of decomposition of seafood.

Most restaurants purchase farmed crabs because they are cheaper. As a result, they use highly fragrant gravies to cover up the ammonia smell.

Cove Aesthetics Eye Treatment Review (formerly known as Admore Aesthetics)

There are many places that provide Aesthetic services, but not one quite like Cove Aesthetics (formerly known as Ardmore Aesthetics). I was introduced by Sample Store to this medispa and recently I visited them at Wheelock Place.

My skin journey with PicoSure Laser at Halley Medical Aesthetics

It has been a few months since I am still struggling with my skin problems. My pore seems to get bigger and as part of my work, I have to wear makeup frequently, sometimes in long hours. I feel annoyed as my face used to be smooth when applying makeup, but now I can see the pores and some spots on my face.

I understand that with time, my skin problem will get better, but this is taking a longer time than I hope. My skin is not perfect and not as smooth as baby skin. I do have scars on my face but I can't wait any more to get rid of all these problems.

I visited Halley Medical Aesthetics and consulted with Dr.Donna Chow.  She is a friendly and easy-going doctor where I really feel comfortable sharing with her about the skin problems that I am facing. One of the concerns that I didn't mention earlier is my dark circle. My dark circle is really very bad despite the number of dark circle products I have used.

Affordable Home Fragrance [ Les Parfums De Farcent ]

I am always looking for a way to make my room and bathroom smell like a 5-stars hotel. I used to use an automatic-spray air freshener but it doesn't smell fresh enough and the heavy scents can be stifling.

Thank you to Sample Store for introducing the newly launched perfume type freshener, Les Parfums de Farcent (LPF) - perfumed sachets and perfumer diffuser. LPF products are IFRA certified, safe, and made from high-quality scented material.

My first impression was the packaging. It looks elegant and these fresheners smell as lovely as they look.

Relove's Amino Acid Feminine Hygiene Wash

​Introducing the collaboration of WORLDiBUY and Sample store.
WORLDiBUY is a cross-border e-commerce platform from Taiwan. They are working with over 25 channels globally and ship to over 100 countries, allowing you to buy products from different parts of the world anytime, anywhere!

One of the products that I am going to review is Relove Amino Acid Feminine Hygiene Wash.
You can redeem a free sample and purchase it from Sample store via this link http://bit.ly/Relove_Wash

It is important to keep our feminine hygiene and to be consistent in maintaining cleanliness regardless of what age you are. Cleaning up our feminine area using a normal soap e.g. body soap is not a good idea. It will cause irritation and affect the ph balance of our private area as it is more sensitive than other parts of our body. Hence, using the right feminine wash is also important.

Hot weather, stuffy and menstruation cycle would cause an infection in feminine areas if we don't take care of it. Moreover, none of us likes a vagina odour. It is common to have some kind of scent in our private area. But it doesn't need to smell like a bed of roses.

VitaRealm MyBeautyColour Drink

I am sure many of you have heard about beauty drinks in the market. Generally, when we choose skincare products, we would choose those that suit our needs; be it serum for firming, moisturizer for hydration or acne cream.

Today I am going to introduce beauty products that are meant to be drunk-VitaRealm Beauty Drinks.  Personally, I believe what we put in our stomach is as important as the product we put on our skin. Research has shown that taking collagen peptides in drinks improves skin hydration and reduces wrinkles.

There are 3 types of drinks representing different #beautycolors.
Each colour has its own skin benefits and targets different skin problems.

Ginza Lion 120th Anniversary Menu
