<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: small;">Hi Everyone!</span></h1>

<span style="font-family: inherit;">I love..LOVE clea</span><span style="font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif;">nsing oil to remove my makeup. every time when someone asks me what makeup remover i’d recommend, i always mention my favourite biore cleansing oil. Which… i just checked. i haven’t written a post on it. Will do it soon.</span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
The past few years cleansing water/ micellar water has been the bomb. everyone seem to be using these to remove makeup. honestly. when i first started out i didn’t really like them. cos to me i felt that it was just water. LOLLL but slowly as i tried more and more, i realised they’re not that bad! i’ve did a post long long ago on the L’Oreal’s micellar water, which they’ve probably already changed packaging.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
So today i’m back to share with you another cleansing water that i’ve been using.</div>

It mentions on it’s packaging as a facial cleansing water( no rinse required) and didn’t mention anything about it being a makeup remover unlike many other brands. But, after using it for a good 2years. this product does removes makeup.</div>

So as you can see, it does remove quite an amount of dirt on face that doesn’t have any makeup.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
I’m not gonna lie, i was initially drawn to this product because of the method of dispensing LOL and i thought. i’ll just finish using this and pour whichever i really like into the bottle and continue using. if you haven’t already figured out. I wasn’t expecting this product to be good. That’s because i am a huge supporter of oil cleansers.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
The first time i used it. it was really just a lazy way out to cleanse my face without actually washing it. and NO. you shouldn’t be doing this. so.. i didn’t exactly expected it to do wonders, because it doesn’t claim wonders as well. i just needed something decent to cope with my laziness. LOL</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
One fine day, i was getting ready for a function and i messed up my eye makeup. calling out for eye makeup lovers out there! feel my frustration!!! and me being a fan of oil cleansers and totally didn’t had any backup of other forms of spot cleaning, i didn’t had any makeup remover that could do spot cleaning. So i just thought. oh well.. no harm let’s just try using this since the previous L’oreal one managed to remove makeup, although this didn’t mention anything maybe it will be able to? I mean if in anyway it make things worst. I’ll just remove my makeup and redo it again. So i grabbed a Qtip and soaked it with product and started spot cleaning.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
I got to say.. it worked well! i didn’t even need to apply any pressure and it removed waterproof makeup like a breeze! totally sold. and i recalled, when i had light makeup i always gravitate towards cleansing water to remove the makeup before cleansing my skin. I mean.. what’s wrong with me! how can i forget that i ever did that. LOL</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
So currently i’ve been using micellar water/ cleansing water to clean my face before washing it with a cleanser.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
& particularly this i’m using at home at the moment. & as you can tell from the packaging. it’s not something i bring along when i’m travelling. LOLLL</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
Although the packaging on this cleansing water mention that it’s a no rinse needed. I still feel you should at least rinse your face with water. well at least to me, it feels like there’s something on your skin. it’s not oily or sticky. it just feels there’s something on your skin.it doesn’t make break out into acne planation but it just didn’t felt like my face is clean. So i always will at least rinse with water.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
Alright for all you lazy peeps like me who never like reading old grandmother’s story here’s a summary of the cleansing water!</div>

<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: maroon;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">PROs</span></span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
1) comes with a pump, super convenient & easy to control for lazy people like me HAAH</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
2) unscented if scents turn you off like i do</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
3)cleans dirt/light makeup off face extremely well</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
4) good for spot cleaning or even removing waterproof makeup</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
5) Non drying to skin</div>

<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: maroon;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">CONs</span></span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
1) leaves a residue on your skin</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
2) doesn’t come in a variety of size, hence not travel friendly.</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
<span style="box-sizing: inherit; color: maroon;"><span style="box-sizing: inherit; font-weight: 700;">Will I recommend this?</span></span></div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
YES i will! I mean it gets it’s job done, and it’s not crazy expensive for a cleansing water. So what not to like about this product?</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
Sorry girls(&guys) I repurchased it when my friends/sister were in korea, so i’ve no idea how much it cost now you may have to head down to the face shop store to check the price out!</div>
<div style="box-sizing: inherit; font-family: lato, helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 16px; margin-bottom: 1.5em;">
With that we’ve come to the end of today’s review! i hope you enjoyed it and i shall see you in the next post!</div>

Till today I’m still not very comfortable talking about Domo’s experience in 2017. Never did I planned to talked about it at all. So I never made a point to take any photos to keep for memory sake. Usually photos I took of Domo in 2017 are happy photos something when I look back and I see Domo’s fighter spirit. I have some pictures with me today that I roughly looked through my phone. So let’s see them!(:<br />

This is Domo during the First few days out of the surgery. He’s so drugged out the first 5days of the surgery, but we were allowed to bring him home the day after the surgery because he’s doing better than expected as compared. But he was so drugged out for the next 5days due the the morphine that was given to him to help him cope with the pain better.<br />
<br />
We were suppose to encourage him to walk around as much as he’s willing to so that the recovery can be better. For those who are curious, Domo did a FHO surgery. You can google on that to find out more. It hurts me so badly having to relive that moment again. So pain relieving medication is a must for the first 5-6days post op.<br />
<br />
We got a crate for him when he injured himself because we were advised to keep him in an enclosed area, we didn’t wanna make him feel like he has no space to move around so we got the largest one we could find in the store. It was big enough for a dog bigger than domo, but it works for him too LOLL at least he can walk a few steps and move around the crate not feeling bored but at the same time stay safe in the doctor’s terms.<br />
<br />
After the operation, we just need to make sure he doesn’t run, doesn’t jump, doesn’t get excited and move aggressively and also not fall and injured himself to delay the process of recovery. So when I’m at work, I kept him in the crate and come back every 3-4hrs to let him out to take a pee break and walk around to breathe some fresh air. When I’m back from work., Domo is out from the cage free to walk around under my tight watch. I didn’t wanna crate him when I go to sleep, so when domo is out from the crate,through his recovery, I put the harness on him together with the leash. so at any point in time he will be near me, safe and sound. Even when we’re fast asleep. I felt that was way better than keeping him in the crate all the time. at least he has more space to move around and walk around. even when he sleeps, it doesn’t have to be like he’s kept somewhere to sleep even though people tell me dogs like being closed in a crate(whatttt???? LOL)<br />

That’s him first 5days post ops. you can see his shaved limps. That’s the area where he had the surgery done. he wanted to be with us, so a lot of time when he’s not wanting to move around, we’ll just carry him like this and he’ll fall asleep for a long time. & as you can see, my sister fell asleep as well LOLL<br />

As time passes, his recovery got a lot better! he’s doing so well, but he has stomach issue due to the amount of pain killers he was put through. His stomach couldn’t take it. During those period I’ll sleep with him on the floor like the picture above, so when his stomach starts getting gassy(which is common for them with stomach issue) i can give him a rub/massage to make him feel better and hopefully let the gas out. Sometimes he’ll wakeup in the middle of the night gagging because it’s making him feel uncomfortable. So I find it better to sleep on the floor with him, so he can walk around in the middle of the night if he’s uncomfortable and be safe and I can know immediately that he’s up.<br />
We had to go back 2weeks after the surgery for the review to determine if domo is well enough to start hydrotherapy.<br />
The vet we went to recommended us to bring domo for hydrotherapy cos he’s easier on the limps but still helps with building muscle and help the limps cope better while exercising. I’m not sure if it’s compulsory to do hydrotherapy after this surgery, but we were swimming domo before we even had the surgery done(basically trying every means we can to avoid the surgery but unfortunately..) so we just needed the green light to be back doing hydrotherapy.<br />
<br />
And here’s domo during one of his hydrotherapy sessions.<br />

Domo’s doing his best at the therapy session every week and is always so tired after it, which really helped a lot with his recovery. I really have to thank the therapist Doris and Anna for helping me with domo every week, and also sharing with me all the knowledge they know to help with domo’s case. Not only for domo, but ozzy as well. Although ozzy is not their concern, but because i had to bring ozzy along while domo was getting his therapy they mingled with him too! and they then told me that ozzy should start doing some swimming which will be good for him in the future as they notice that ozzy is getting alittle old and there’s very early signs of arthritis, signs that are very vague that because they had a lot of knowledge working with very senior dogs they noticed it in ozzy. So they said that getting him to swim once a week will also help ozzy cope better as he age and the limps will be able to be more agile and deteriorate slower. So we went to the public pool at the pet farm either before or after domo’s therapy since ozzy don’t need to be on therapy urgently yet.<br />
<br />
<strike><i>PS. it was too much for me to handle so I stopped writing over the weekend to calm my mind down. Hence this post didn’t go up on Saturday, now i’m ready to continue this.</i></strike><br />
<br />
Domo was doing very well with his limps and by November 2017 he was fully recovered and didn’t need to go back for any more review be it his stomach or his legs. Early this year we noticed that he was having some aggression towards other dogs which he never had in the past, we felt maybe it’s cos whenever he’s at the pool he’s always so tired and weak, and when the other dogs came to him, he didn’t really have the strength/energy to “protect” himself, not that he needed also la. LOLL So decided to stop his sessions at the therapy centre and try swimming him ourselves, since he has already totally recovered, so he can be around dogs and not be aggressive. The first few moments are pretty intense because domo triggers oozy’s aggression as well. but the owners there were very nice and friendly, half of which we already know since ozzy is swimming there, so they we re quite helpful and supportive to help us with mingling ozzy and domo with their dogs. most of them didn’t mind ozzy and domo attacking their dogs and even made sure that theirs don’t reciprocate when i’m teaching mine to not be aggressive, and today ozzy and domo is good with most of the dogs they meet.<br />

I’m really glad we had a happy closure to 2017, and things are still looking positive in 2018! keeping my fingers cross that they both stay at healthy as they can be!<br />
<br />
Throughout 2017 there’s 2 main group of people I’ll need to thank.<br />
First of all, Dr Tsai & team from The Animal Doctors. I don’t know if our first visit we were put to her because they knew our condition, or we were just lucky. Throughout Domo’s treatment Dr Tsai handled everything personally, i even remembered one day she was already off from work, but because we came in due to domo’s stomach issue, she still came out personally to attend to him. Even for his surgery, she stayed till 1am in the morning to ensure domo was well before heading knocking off. Not forgetting the great team they have there. Domo’s not the easiest dog to work with, I have been taking care of him since young I know how much of a handful he can be when he’s not cooperative. More often than not he’s not willing to cooperate with the nurses there, making their job even harder since they had to ensure his safety. They were always patient with him and showing him so much love everywhere he’s there. We went in unannounced one day, and one of the nurses came out casually saw domo and asked what happen to domo. They actually remembered him! There was another who called domo Champion. I don’t know if he was fighting them so much that’s their nickname for him, or because he’s a fighter recovering and getting better. I’m also not the most patient and nicest client to work with. I’m always getting paranoid and scared over the lamest thing always give them calls to check and make sure. Thinking back, if i were them, i’ll probably not wanna entertain myself. LOLL but they’re always patiently answering everything i ask the best they can. So i really appreciate their service and help throughout the year.<br />
If you’re looking for a vet to bring your animals for check up! please give them a go, they may not be the most established vet around, but they really put their heart and soul to help the pets. Ozzy and Domo have been seeing them since young. LOL<br />
Here’s their link <a href="http://www.theanimaldoctors.com.sg/">http://www.theanimaldoctors.com.sg/</a><br />
<br />
The 2nd group of people I really really need to thank are Anna, Doris and Ranju from Hydro Paw Plus. Anna was actually the one that comforted me and tell me that everything will be fine after the surgery. We didn’t had a choice but to choose the surgery, at that moment we really didn’t know anyone that could give us a good piece of advice. So i called Anna and asked for hers. She’s been working with rehabilitating dogs after many different kinds for limp injury. From fitness swims to total paralysed. One of her more common patients are FHO surgery patients whom she work with very often also. So she really helped me a lot by reassuring me that domo is gonna be fine, and how to take care of domo after the surgery before going to her(mainly that 2weeks). What Anna shared with me was very detailed post care, so detailed even what kind of mats i can get and where i can get the cheapest to help domo walk around better and more comfortable. Honestly if Anna didn’t helped me so much at the start, I wouldn’t know if i’ll be able to take care of domo so well. Also Doris for always showing domo so much love during our sessions there. domo is such a handful and never worked with her. But Doris really made domo improve so much and recover so much faster. I mean come on, it’s domo. He gave people at the vet such a hard time, he wouldn’t have gave Doris an easy time, especially with me around, it’s only gonna get worse. But Doris really did well with him with LOTS of patience man. Me as his owner, i don’t even know if i can be half as patient as she was LOLLL. Lastly, Ranju. Oh my Ranju, how i’ve taken her for granted for what she did for domo in the first session. Range’s skills of cleaning domo up before returning to us really puts my heart and mind at ease. Top notch skills she has there. She remembers every dog’s temperament! no joke. she remembers domo hated the blower’s sound, she knows domo will jump off anything. So she take extra precaution when cleaning domo up. I noticed for other dogs she does the same also, if this dog has a skin condition or some sort, she’ll remember this dog has a special shampoo that they will have to use. or this dog has to be carried a certain way when cleaning. Every time i see her she’s always soaked even though she has an apron to keep her from getting soaked. but because she uses the method the pet is most comfortable she made herself soaked when she didn’t have to. A+ for the effort everyone at hydropaw plus puts in man!<br />

Alright I’m glad I took that break and manage to end this post on a happy note. I’m really glad I was able to meet these people and the people after that during domo’s recovery every single person we met makes our heart feels so warm, even till yesterday while at the pool, people there were so sweet with them(: <3<br />
Alright i’ll end here. It’s getting too lengthy. LOLL before i end off, let me show you my exhausted face with domo every weekend LOLL I need to claim some credit for doing something LOLLL!!!! maybe i didn’t really do that much la. i just wanna claim LOLL <br />

<br />
As mentioned in the previous post, I’ve tried a lot of moisturisers in the past year, some were recommended and well raved online, others were recommended to me by the shop assistant.<br />
I was walking around the face shop one day looking for their mango seed line because it used to be really popular Korea i think in around 2015 or so. There wasn’t much options for mango seed line at the face shop that I went. A really nice sales assistant came by and asked if i needed help, so I told her i’m looking for a light weight moisturiser that can moisturise my skin but doesn’t feel heavy at the same time. The lady recommended me a product that she used personally and felt that it’s very good.<br />
So today let’s review on it!<br />

I tried doing bit more research after I got it, but I can’t find any review on this product. Found 1 review on the same line but it’s for their cream. So… I wasn’t really sure what to expect.<br />
Here’s the description they have on their website<br />

This is 1pump of product. As you can see. it comes out as a gel, but as soon as it touches your skin, it melts into a liquid form. so you really have to work quick with this product.<br />
PS. usually i’ll do 3pumps.<br />

This is how watery it is. basically if you’re looking for a moisturiser that will make your skin glow after applying. This is not the one for you. LOLL<br />
<br />
Although the lady said its a really good moisturiser, it isn’t enough to keep my skin moisturised for even 3hrs. I’m thinking.. it’s either the lady’s skin is very oily and don’t need much moisture or i’m doing something wrong. LOL<br />
<br />
ok, it sounds right now that I really hate this product for wasting my money on it. But in actual fact, i do quite enjoy using this product. My skin is SO dry that if i don’t apply anything on it, it’ll feel like those egg white mask feeling. so tight that it’ll tear if i laugh too hard. Even with such dry skin, I’m still hesitant on applying moisturiser because of the stuffy feeling. So this product is actually my stepping stone to getting use to applying something on my skin, or at least not leave the house without anything on.<br />
<br />
At the beginning i apply it just as its own and leave the house. I noticed even with 3pumps, super watery but it absorbs very fast! like mentioned above although it doesn’t keep my skin moisturised throughout the day, but at least it gives it little moisture better than none.<br />
<br />
This product is VERY light weight, once absorbed you can’t feel anything on your skin, it’s really absorbed! so throughout the day i don’t get heavy and stick skin. After awhile and getting use to applying at least something on my skin, i tried to apply abit more on my skin.<br />
AND LO AND BEHOLD! I FOUND THE PURPOSE OF THIS PRODUCT!<br />
This is not a moisturiser! this is more of an essence! it’s to enhance and help the moisturiser than you use absorb better! no wonder it’s no enough on it’s own! I guess that lady that recommended me has really oily skin to tell me that it’s good on it’s own. I tried it with other moisturising creams, and i notice that my face don’t get as sticky and stuffy as if i were just to use the moisturising cream alone. because i get to use lesser product, and this helps to absorb the products better into my skin and still not lose so much moisture throughout the day!<br />
<br />
I love this product! not for the main purpose of buying it, but how it enhances my routine and makes the products that i applied after this better for my skin. Sometimes you know.. you apply something on your face, and it seems like it’s just staying on your face, and not being absorbed? yea, this product acts like a thing to help such the other goodness i applied on after into the skin and not just sitting there.<br />
<br />
Just this product alone, like other product if you use it alone. It makes your skin alittle smoother, not significant, just a little. it’s not amazing using on its own. So if you’re looking for a 1stop skin care product, this is definitely not it, and you’ll probably find yourself wasting your money getting it.<br />
If you’re looking for a cheaper essence, this is almost $50sgd if I remembered correctly. Seems like it’s on the steeper side. But we all know how expensive essence can get. That’s why people usually just skip it. LOLLL<br />
So if you’re looking for an essence to enhance your routine, I’ll totally recommend this! that’s why until today, I’m still using it. LOLLL<br />
<br />
PROs<br />
1. Super light weight, non sticky<br />
2. Light floral fragrance<br />
3. Easy application<br />
4. Very sanitised packaging<br />
5. Great enhancer<br />
<br />
CONs<br />
1. Doesn’t really moisturize skin on it’s own<br />
<br />
Yep! that’s all I have to say about this product! If you’ve tried the regular line, not this moisturising line, which is super popular as well, Let me know what are your thoughts on it. Will you recommend it? Which is worth trying? Leave them down in the comments section so I can head down to the shop to get them to try out!<br />
<br />
Alright! till the next post! BYE!<br />

<br />
Ever since i’ve started being in a relationship, which i’m now happily engaged, it’s been a constant weight gain. The scales have only increase and never decreasing. I guess that’s part of being in a relationship and you forget about restrictions LOLLL. So every now and then I’ll try and maintain my weight.<br />
Recently I’ve been about toning and doing cardio, because I’ve came to terms that there’s no point I get a nice but unhealthy body. So i’m not too much about losing weight, more of staying active and eating healthy.<br />
<br />
I was pushing myself last night to see how many squats I can do, not many tbh LOLL, and I suddenly thought of the ways I use to try and slim down in the past, and I thought of this and I have to share! So instead of a beauty review today. I’d like to share my thoughts and experience on the Skinnymint Teatox!<br />
<br />

<br />
I had many recommendations from friends. Some who are really active and doing sports, and some not so. The review from them is great! and they’ll continue the program.<br />
After hearing such good reviews of course I have to get it too! So i went ahead got 1 one of this 28day Ultimate Teatox set. I have to say.. The delivery for this company is superb. Although it’s an online shop, it comes to your door step like it’s your neighbour. Really fast as compared to many other online stores.<br />
<br />
So from the picture above. there’s 2packets of tea. 1 for the morning and 1 for the night.<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq" style="box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "open sans" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 1.5; margin: 0px; padding: 10px 0px;">

It contains a natural, gentle herb that has a mild cleansing/laxative effect, so start with a shorter infusion time and work out what's best for your body.

<span style="font-family: "open sans" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="font-family: "open sans" , sans-serif; font-size: 14px;">This is the information I got from the website. You can go to the website to find out more about it, if you’re interested.</span><br />
<br />
I brought the day pack to work and drank it diligently throughout the day. Which actually at this moment as i’m typing.. I don’t know if i was suppose to do so, but i did that anyway.<br />
As for the night pack, I left it at home and drank it right before bedtime, since you’re not suppose to consume anything after drinking the tea.<br />
<br />
The Taste.<br />
<br />
The day tea is good. Fruity light and refreshing<br />
The night tea was little funky, I didn’t really liked it to be honest. I always had to gulp it down as fast as I can if not I wouldn’t have finished it.<br />
<br />
Does it work?<br />
<br />
The day tea is just suppose to give you a boost of energy and a pick me up throughout the day. Honestly I didn’t felt any difference. I didn’t mind drinking it since it was a nice flavoured tea, but throughout the entire month I didn’t felt like I was more awake or had more energy in me. It was just any other tea I drink. LOL<br />
<br />
For the night cleanse. Although it’s awful to drink, but it does something. It cleanse out EVERYTHING the next morning. It doesn’t only flush out the toxin in your body. It flushes out everything you ate prior to drinking the tea.<br />
In short…. diarrhoea<br />
I did a timer to calculate when it’ll take effect. it varies. but most of the time. 2-3hrs after you wakeup, and it’ll last for about 1.5hrs till you’re fully cleansed.<br />
Actually the night tea works the same as laxatives. The tea has Liquorice Root which is a natural laxative, and there’s a lot of it in it, which makes the tea not so pleasure to me.<br />
<br />
So actually in short. This tea is laxative.<br />
<br />
I would think that most of their customers are ladies, and ladies have that time of the month. I’m not a person who get affected by cramps or period cramps. I don’t know if it’s cause i don’t have that much pain during my period, or I’m just really good at tolerating pain.<br />
There was once i drank the night tea right before the 1st day of my period. And the next morning, the pain was so unbearable my face turned white, I started having cold shivers and sweat. It was the worst pain I ever felt. it wasn’t even a cramp. It’s just straight up pain. I was in such a bad state that my mother almost brought me to the A&E that morning, but I told her i’ll be fine sleeping it off. The entire pain took yes, about 1.5hrs before it went away. During that 1.5hrs I had to crawl to the toilet before i was so scared I’ll soil my pants. I took a hot bag and lay it on my stomach to make it feel better, but honestly it did nothing. that’s how i knew it wasn’t cramps.<br />
PS. the pain was so bad that I didn’t have strength to push the poop out even though i knew it’ll make me feel better, but it was SO PAINFUL I couldn’t even use my core muscles. it was the worst experienced I’ve experienced with this teatox and I never touched it again.<br />
<br />
So would I recommend it? obviously my answer is no. If i had to go through such a pain just to get a slimmer body, then I might as well exercise. muscle aches are not even 1/4 of the pain I experienced that morning.<br />
Also. at the end of the month, I weighted myself. I didn’t even lost must weight. Probably about 1-2kg, which is quite insignificant since I can just gain it back over breakfast/lunch.<br />
<br />
So instead of spending the money on this teatox, I’ll recommend to exercise and eat healthy. Healthy meaning less oil less salt less sugar, I think you can achieve losing 1-2kg if not even more within that same month.<br />
<br />
Alright, I’m done with this chapter of my life. ready to close and move on! I’ll catch you in the next post!<br />

<br />
Since the start of blogging you probably may have read countless time of me ranting how dry my skin is. Time passed and today, nothing much has changed. still as dry as the sahara desert LOLLL I’ve been in search of good moisturiser to combat the dryness in my skin yet at the same time not make me feel like i’m drowning in moisturiser stickiness.<br />
I’ve tried a lot in the past 2years, and in the next few days, i’ll share some of the moisturisers I’ve tested!<br />
Today’s moisturiser is flown from Korea. I don’t know where you can get it in Singapore or online. I haven’t really went to hunt where we can get it online. This is actually my sister’s product. She went to Korea in 2016 if i didn’t remember wrongly, and the store assistant in Aritaum introduced her to this moisturiser saying it’s their best seller. How best i don’t know. And it’s the IOPE SUPER VITAL CREAM BIO EXCELLENT!<br />
<img alt="IMG 7094" border="0" height="400" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Qm5f19lNmXE/WsMvq46JaFI/AAAAAAAAHkA/VgOD5nItj5QoWDgH5OFb9p1xw8_hhq-_ACHMYCw/IMG_7094.JPG?imgmax=1600" style="float: left;" title="IMG_7094.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
It’s so atas it comes in Gold and with a spatula! According to my elder sister it’s getting more and more common nowadays if you’re using higher end beauty products. LOL PS. I just went to check the price. it’s almost 100k won.<br />
<br />
This is an anti aging cream, which is a lot thicker and richer than normal moisturiser. And yes. it’s CREAM not GEL CREAM.<br />
My sister was telling me that she only used a pea size amount of this on her face every night because it’s so thick and a little goes a long way for her(PS she has oily surface, but dry skin) and she wouldn’t apply it in the day because it’s too thick and humid for Singapore’s weather. And mentioned that it’ll be something that I’ll appreciate for my Sahara Desert Skin. LOLL<br />
That’s how i got to try this product.<br />
The first time I applied it on. I’m not gonna lie. I left my pores getting drown by the cream(even though I didn’t apply much, just a pea size) it feels so suffocating, warm and sticky. As the day passed, I couldn’t take it and went to wash my face.<br />
<br />
so the 2nd time round. I tried again with half the amount i used. it’s GOOD! I noticed throughout the day my skin remains radiant and there’s hardly any visible fine lines at the end of the day. It is a lot more light weight than when I first used it. However, that initial stuffy feeling is still there for the first probably 10mins. Once the product is more or less absorbed(don’t over apply) it’s feels quite comfortable on the skin.<br />

I gave up trying to pat the product in. so the remaining which didn’t get absorbed i applied it on my other hand LOL.<br />
<br />
Can you see the lower part of my hand glowing? That’s how your face will look like for the entire day!<br />
Bonus point! it makes your skin feel like baby’s skin! SOOOO soft!!!<br />
<br />
There is a little floral scent to it. Which I didn’t mind, So you might wanna check out in stores to see if it’s acceptable for you.<br />
<br />
PROs<br />
1. A little last a long way<br />
2. Achieves Anti Aging Claims<br />
3. Leaves Skin feeling soft and elastic (like baby’s skin)<br />
4. Nice Floral Scent<br />
<br />
<br />
CONs<br />
1. Not cheap<br />
2. Not readily available in Singapore<br />
3. need to be careful with the amount you apply<br />
<br />
<br />
I’ll definitely recommend this product. Especially as a night cream. Just apply and go to bed don’t think about it. LOLLL sometimes when i’m in a hurry, I will apply little too much. Sometimes it bothers me, sometimes it doesn’t. So if you’re always in the hurry in the morning, I’ll recommend you apply this at night, then get another moisturiser which is light weight and not as thick to apply in the day.(:<br />
<br />
If you’re tried this product, let me know your thoughts on it! will you recommend this too? what other favourites you have! recommend them to me!! (:<br />
<br />
Till next post! BYE!!!!<br />

<p>The last time i actually sat down a did reviews regularly was 3years ago! I didn’t even noticed it! time has really flew passed! after all these drama, I’ve managed to get on my feet and stay somewhat positive. LOLL I realise drama and negativity don’t really go away, they linger at the darkest corner of your life ready to pop out and give you a jump scare! you just need to be brave and pluck up the courage to move on and not get affected by it too much.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So now that i’m not that down anymore, i thought its a good time to start blogging again! trying out makeup, skincare products have always been my passion. And accordingly to xm, I’m so passionate about it, I become very good at it and makeup/skincare and i makes it whole. People come and ask me from time to time which i felt is worth buying and trying even though i’ve stopped blogging for such a long time. </p>
<p> </p>
<p>I wanted to kick start blogging with a review, but i sat here for 30mins not knowing how i should start blogging. So i thought i shall do a casual “intro” post so i don’t have to do any explaining or… i don’t know.. to why i’ve been gone since dec 2017 again LOL I know i don’t have to give any explanation, but i just felt oblige to, like there’s someone waiting for me to comeback, which probably there isn’t right LOLLL. If there so happen to be one.. HELLOOOO!!!!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Alright, I’ll stop here! See you in the next post very soon!( ps. i’m gonna start writing it once i get my lunch settled!) Meanwhile! head over to my instagram! i’m trying to be active on it. LOLLL</p>
<p> </p>

<p>it’s been a while!</p>
<p>It’s been almost 1.5 years since i posted on this blog.</p>
<p>Many things have happened.. Mainly the pups(more like old man) business. Domo injured himself somewhere in April this year, and everything just went downhill for both of them. From just an injured limp(which we thought an easy procedure without surgery can be done) to a major surgery that require him at least 6months to heal, and in the midst of healing, his stomach had some issue due to the amount of medication he had to take for his injured limp and then the surgery, and lastly both of them had to undergo scaling just over the past month for periodontal disease prevention.</p>
<p>But on the good note. At least they’re now good and running around without feeling pain/discomfort/suffering.</p>
<p>2017 has be hell of a negative emotional ride. Training my mental health constantly every single day. When i thought things were getting better, something negative decides hit me again. TBH, i’m never a fighter, well i never consider and felt like one before. So I’ve no idea now i managed to overcome all these in 2017, not just the dogs but other personal, and work stuff as well. But there’s one thing that i learnt from it all, when things around you take a down turn, don’t overwhelm yourself with the negativity that surrounds you. take it easy, clear your mind and take it one thing at a time, day by day. All these negativity is temporary, and won’t last forever. If you have a solution to change things around, then do it! If it’s something that’s not within your control, just do your best everyday and it’ll slowly get better. I don’t even know if this is the right way to handle these, but at least it kinda help me go through the tough period.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I haven’t been posting much in 2016 as well, that’s because I was going through a quarter life crisis. I’m seeing people around me finding what they want in life and excelling(and not as well) in the field. Yet i’m still stuck no where. Feels like i’m in the middle of the sea holding on to a log trying to find a ship to board and safe myself. I have a full time job, but i don’t know it it’s what i want to do for the rest of my life, or do i want a career change, or…. To put it short, it’s just I don’t know what i want in life. I don’t know if what I’m doing is right for me, am i happy doing it or not. Don’t get me wrong, I love blogging, I love sharing with you my thoughts on stuff i’ve been trying out, I even made a YouTube Channel and videos. It’s something i’m genuinely interested about. It’s really just a hobby. But living in Singapore hobby/interest as your career isn’t an easy path. I have friends that wants to do what they love for their living, but very often the job that brings them joy can’t fill their rice bowl, and they have to find another alternative to fill their rice bowl, juggling many roles/job and a time, exhausting them mentally and physically. I don’t know if they’re happy doing it, but i am really envious of them having the courage to pursue their dreams no matter how hard life is choosing this path. Well for me, I have many interest, so i kinda don’t know what i wanna do in life. I love my dogs, which is the main reason why i love animals so much. I want to do something related in the animal welfare/well being field. Yet at the same time I’m interested in makeup fashion etc. And also part of me really like doing business. So it made me really struggle bit when i fell into this crisis, because i feel i don’t know what i want in life. But after much thought and calming down, I realise that it’s just I can’t find a middle ground where i can accommodate and do everything that I like together. Actually till today I still haven’t found a middle ground to it. HAHAHHAHAHA</p>
<p>I’ve been going through this “crisis” that most of the time i’m just unhappy and not in the mood of doing anything else out of the routine so i i don’t have to feel so vexed. I stopped blogging. i don’t want blogging to feel like a chore and an unhappy place as well. I’ve always tried my best to keep unhappy and depressing things out of the blog when i post, mainly because i just don’t like looking at sad stuff when i look back. I wanna see and remember the good ones, and at that point, i kinda couldn’t bring myself to post.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>This entire 2017 thought me a lot. And the main take away is to take things one at a time, day by day. So i’ve decided that I’m gonna revive this blog. Post anything and everything like how i use to, maybe not everyday, but as often as i can, though i’d really like to go back to posting everyday, but no stress. Don’t want to make it seem like i’m making blogging a chore. If i can I’ll post more, but if not i’ll post when i can.</p>
<p>If you have any request, be it the dogs, makeup, skincare or anything.. really… Just let me know and I’ll write a post and let you know my views on it. Don’t ask me life advices HAHAH, because I’m not even sure if i can give a legit/ good help to you HAHAHAH I will also do up a post on what exactly happen to Domo when i’m ready to talk about it. Mainly because when i was going through the entire drama with Domo, most of the time I felt that I’m alone, and no one to turn to or anyone or anyone who can relate to what i’m going through and the decisions I have to make. There are so many unanswered worries prior to post recovery that I was unsure about and also mainly Domo’s well being and life after recovery. I know there’s bound to be someone out there, maybe even as i’m typing this post, feeling so helpless, uncertain and despair over the exact same method as what i’ve been though. So I’ll gather up and sort out all my emotions, and when i’m ready to talk about it, I’ll share into details what happened to Domo, what we did, and how we helped him recover from it. BTW he’s doing well, we’re done going back to the vet for good until the next annual vaccination. if you’re wondering what he’s doing now, it’s 7am and he’s sleeping on the bed beside me as I’m typing and tell you about him LOL totally oblivious about us talking about him HAHAHA! As for Ozzy, he’s also sleeping very comfortably with his 4 little legs up in the air like nothing’s gonna wake him up. oh.. Ozzy, he’s been a great emotional support for Domo and I this year. LOL So considerate and giving towards the both of us. I don’t even know if he knows it. LOL</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Alright this post is getting little lengthy, and I want to go back and sleep in for another 2hrs before we start out day. So i’ll see you in my next post!</p>

<br />
It’s been a long while! it really has!<br />
I’ll update about my life again in another post (maybe since there’s really nothing interesting), as for today, as you can see from the title above, I’m gonna do a review on one of my new purchases.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: red; font-size: large;"><b><u>WARNING!! THIS POST IS NOT FOR PEOPLE WITH OILY SCALP!</u></b></span><br />

<u><span style="color: blue;"><b>Garnier Fructis Fortifying Shampoo and Conditioner</b></span></u><br />
<br />
Someone asked on Garner Singapore’s FB page regarding this range and they mentioned that they don’t carry it. So I’m guessing you can’t get this product in Guardian/Watsons or any major super and hyper markets.<br />
I got mine at Venus, kinda like a beauty wholesale.<br />
<br />
<br />
I’ve been using this product for almost 2months now, and so far I’m loving it. I’ve been washing my hair every other day before using this range. Ever since I’ve started using this, I’ve been washing my hair everyday. This product is to deep condition and give really smooth and sleek shiny hair, and it also contains organ oil. From my experience, if I skipped one day of not washing my hair, my scalp will feel really itchy/dirty and really uncomfortable. I usually won’t even wanna touch it if i didn’t get it clean.<br />
<br />
But that’s probably the only con I have for this range.<br />
<br />
Let’s start off with the shampoo.<br />
<br />
<img alt="IMG 6640" border="0" height="400" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Io59F9OJIoc/V2obLzvVMOI/AAAAAAAAHdE/Gs0JNO_gGDA/IMG_6640.JPG?imgmax=1600" style="float: left;" title="IMG_6640.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I don’t know if you can see from the photo. The shampoo comes in a transparent thick liquid. Kind of made me think of the kids glue we use when in Primary School.<br />
Comparing this with many other shampoos I’ve used, I find this shampoo pretty runny to work with. When I just started using, lots of product flow out from the bottle since I didn’t know how to control it and my entire head becomes extremely foaming and soapy. But after working with it for a period of time, I kinda manage to estimate how much I really needed!<br />
<br />
If you have shoulder length hair and really like the shiny, smooth sleek feeling. I think just by using this shampoo will do the trick. Just with the shampoo alone, I notice my hair feeling softer and smoother after wash.<br />
<br />
Because my hair length is around my chest area, I follow up with the conditioner after rinsing the shampoo out.<br />
<img alt="IMG 6641" border="0" height="400" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-_E_DGgTKbG0/V2obM2pwtEI/AAAAAAAAHdM/B0-1N2dBy50/IMG_6641.JPG?imgmax=1600" style="float: left;" title="IMG_6641.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The conditioner is a lot thicker and much harder to pump out of the tube. It’s like a hair mask texture. To me, it doesn’t feel light weight like how other conditioners feel. This conditioner actually feels more like a hybrid between hair mask and conditioner. It is easy to work into the hair, and I usually just leave in on and wash my face, brush my teeth and wash the rest of my body before rinsing it.<br />
<br />
The pairing of both this products together revived my almost dead looking hair.<br />
Recently I’ve decided that I don’t really want permed hair anymore. I want to start taking better care of my hair and made sure that the glow comes back.<br />
My hair feels kinda dead before using this range. There’s always tangles in the hair and it just didn’t feel good. but after using this product, the problem is pretty much gone! Remember how i used argan oil after showering to tame those tangles in my hair. Now I don’t really need it. Adding argan oil on my hair when I step out of the shower makes my hair looks even shiner and healthier. I don’t have any problems with tangled hair anymore. I’m thinking it has to be the ingredients used in it<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
There already is Argan Oil in both the Shampoo and Conditioner!<br />
<br />
I’ll definitely recommend this! Especially for those who have frizzy hair! well.. I don’t really have crazy frizzy hair. But I have tons of baby hair sticking through. It helped with the taming of it. But now my hair seems bit lack of volume. It’s a give and take I guess??<br />
<br />
I don’t recommend this to people who has only skin/scalp. I think this product may really clog your pores and create some breakout! not sure about it, but I’m guessing it will!<br />
If you need recommendations on hair care routine for oily scalp or deep cleansing routine check out my video below! (yes i’m trying to make videos now)<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
For all of you who are wondering, this range retails for $6.50-$6.90 each at Venus Beauty.<br />
<br />
Happy showering!<br />

<br />
Welcome back! it’s been awhile since I actually sat down and typed something.<br />
about a month ago in December, My BESTEST friend finally tied a knot! So happy for her! there were soo many hiccups as to where to hold the wedding and how her wedding is going to be held. initially was suppose to be december, then it became march, then june, then march again, then june again, and at last they decided at the very last few months to hold 2 weddings! one traditional and one solemnisation! so the one that we went is for the solemnisation her theme was suppose to be beach theme, but as it gets nearer to the wedding, she told me to match something orange. LOL i got 3 dresses, not knowing which to wear, and also.. it was on offer, but she choose the orange one to match her theme. So yea. i wore that in the end.Initially i wanted to vlog the entire day but i’m not sure if she wants me to post it online or not. so to be safe, i didn’t. Instead, I film myself getting ready.<br />
To be real honest, when i was filming this, the only thought that I had going through my mind was this idea is so lame. Why will I even feel like it’s sometimes special to document. But as I was looking back and editing the video, i noticed myself smiling nonstop. What’s flowing through the mind isn’t the makeup that I did. It was the entire night of witnessing one of the most important people in my lives moving on to the next chapter of her life. It was indeed a real precious moment.<br />

But do stay in tune! I'm still trying to sort out pictures and footage on our Hong Kong Trip.<br />
Few Moments ago, xm was asking me about my lunch. Recently I have no appetite for meals and couldn't finish the portion I use to be able to. So I was saying same for today, around 1/3 of the food was left over.<br />
Tonight we're meeting for dinner and I was telling him I worry I won't be able to eat much. Maybe manage just a little more than a slice of pizza. Him being him told me," you'll have 2 slices of pizza(which I usually easily devour 4-5slices) and I'll give you my crusts". Doesn't sound like much to others, but it warms me at this very moment.<br />
The reason for my love for pizza is for the stuff crust. For those who don't know, stuff crust is the pizza's crust wrapped with cheese. That's my favourite part of the entire pizza.<br />
Knowing my poor appetite recently, yet not wanting me to miss out on my favourite treat, he suggested it.<br />
What more can I ask for. (:<br />

So I actually stop wearing make up because of the laziness I experience every morning, I think I actually went without makeup for a good 3months! People usually feel more confident with their skin at this point. I just felt normal, I guess it’s probably because I never really felt inferior about my skin prior to not wearing makeup. But at the same time, I didn’t feel an extra boost of confidence because I always felt not putting on alittle makeup actually makes me look more tired and listless. which I can’t deny it’s true given my horrid sleeping habits. HAHAHA<br />
<br />
Recently hacks videos are super popular on YouTube and I came across a Morning Hack Video. Can’t remember who actually made that video but they actually mention something that i knew but always left out and not do at all.<br />
Which is to keep the makeup I wanna use in the morning in a bag to save time.<br />
<br />
And so i tried it on night, and save to say.. I’ve been more hardworking on putting makeup than before. LOL!<br />
<br />
So here’s a peek on what I wear everyday, and also my super fast 5min super rush makeup routine!<br />
<img alt="IMG 5728" border="0" height="400" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-iVq_bzhtoD8/VkAGO1koHbI/AAAAAAAAHYk/wNJfMIiKcqk/IMG_5728.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5728.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I keep all the makeup in this bag, got it free from DMK, and I use this because it’s small and compact. I can just throw it into my bag if i’m in a rush. It barely weights much to feel something extra is in my bag. And most importantly! it’s too small to even over pack!!<br />
<br />

These are pretty much my staples for everyday. I usually switch up the lip stain pretty often. Usually i’ll go for a more pinky nude shade. But just that day I was feeling something more red. which explains that. LOL!.<br />
<br />
Seems like a lot of product. But on days where I only have less than 5mins to put on makeup, I’ll skip some of them. e.g. eyeliner and all<br />
<br />
Actually I don’t really remember what I used that day. It was take like a week or 2 ago. So~~ yea. LOL!<br />

Before any makeup, just after my skincare routine.<br />
I was and still am experiencing those comedone outbreak around my face.not sure if you can see it clearly. I was at Sephora finding for something that’ll make the bumps on my face go away, the lady there actually told me for my case I’ll have to seek professional help and go for facial. I don’t feel that it was a serious problem, so.. I’m now trying to use scrubs and exfoliant with mask to try and lessen the problem.<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Ahhh~~ I thought I skipped eyeliner. But I remembered I went for a really thin eyeliner look to like I had fuller lashes.so yea. I’m not really good at lower liner, so usually when i’m in a hurry I’ll just skip it.<br />
<br />
And also!! recently I’ve learn the technique of filling in brows. so i’m been doing it really often! and YES!!! i’m getting the hang of it!<br />
Really in love with filling in my brows! makes my brows look so full!! I LOVE!!!!<br />
<br />
Yea this is usually how i look. Eyeshadow and all are just too time consuming. LOL! so I’ll skip them. I’ll usually only put eyeshadow if I have at least 30mins to prep. LOL.<br />
<br />
Yea that’s pretty much what i usually wear everyday. just a different lip and maybe with/without eyeliner and mascara. LOL.<br />
<br />
My aim for this bag is just to make myself look less tired and more even skin tone. So eyeliner and mascara don’t really matter to me. LOL although it will not make me look as awake as I wanted. But it makes a little difference with the BB cushion, so I’m satisfied.HAHAHAH<br />
<br />
Alright, I guess I’ll stop here for now! I’ll speak to you in the next post!<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading!<br />

I mean. what i’m thinking don’t come out as what I said. and it sounded really weird. so i thought, since I can just type it down, why not post it as a post instead.<br />
<br />
So, being a 8-5pm office worker, I’m always trying to get maximum time of rest and the shortest way to get ready in the morning yet look good.<br />
<br />
So here are 5 things that I made the start of my day so much faster and easier, thus more time to sleep! I mean. who can get ready within 30mins including bathing and still look all prep up!<br />
<br />
So let’s get started!<br />
<br />
<img alt="IMG 5621" border="0" height="450" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-PP_Jbv8Dsuc/VhuJPfiOAYI/AAAAAAAAHWs/Au26zydJayk/IMG_5621.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5621.JPG" width="600" /><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
ok. actually the first product is actually a cheating product. I don’t use it in the day, i use it at night, before i go to bed.<br />
<img alt="IMG 5622" border="0" height="600" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-GjhZiI80nQg/VhuJRd0rj9I/AAAAAAAAHW0/8ShIXQgAx80/IMG_5622.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5622.JPG" width="450" /><br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
So I believe all of you know how much I rely on this product to not have rashes or breakout.<br />
Also another factor is that this is ULTRA hydrating. LOL! but indeed this product is very very hydrating. because i’m sleeping in an zircon room now. very often than not. If i don’t hydrate my skin well enough at night, I will have a very tight feeling the next morning and my face feels powdery. You know those dry powdery feeling you get when your face is just too dry. yea, that feeling. And then in the morning I have to apply more moisturiser and apply powder foundation on my face to make sure the moisturiser won’t feel sticky on my skin throughout the day.<br />
<br />
So this Cetaphil cream actually helps me with my skincare routine the next day!<br />
<br />
So with the help of Cetaphil cream, My skincare routine in the morning is being simplified to only 1 product! Which leads to product no.2!<br />

<b>Hada Labo Arbutin Whitening Lotion</b><br />
<br />
I believe I actually made a post on this product on this blog since I’ve been using this product for a good 5years.<br />
<br />
I remember using this product way back when I’m still struggling with my acne problems. so it’s been a good 5years now. the only difference made was I moved on to the whitening version which is above from the normal hydrating version. Not that the original one isn’t good. It’s just that I always love using products that says it’s brightening or whitening.<br />
This is not only a toner, it’s at the same time a light moisturiser, more than enough to leave my skin smooth and moist for the day ahead!<br />
<br />
The 3rd product, is something everyone need!!! it doesn’t have to be this product, anything does fine! but this product speeds up the process of looking more awake!<br />

<br />
this product is SPF50+ PA+++. Where can you get a makeup with such high SPF??? well i know I’ve never seen anything like this so far.<br />
So far for makeup, or should i say foundation, the largest SPF I’ve seen so far is SPF30. Also, because my skincare routine, I use a lot of whitening products, so I have to use SPF to protect it even more. I heard. Not too sure if it’s true, when you use whitening products and don’t protect your skin with sunscreen, your skin is more prone to freckles and age marks. So to prevent that, I made sure to apply them. Be it sunscreen or This BB Cushion or any thing that has SPF. And also I feel i’m already so tanned I don’t wanna be any more tanned. HAHAHAHA<br />
<br />
Next product, which is like my secret to look more awake, healthier and radiant is this.<br />

It’s a good thing I don’t have to say it out since i don’t know pronounce it. HAHAHA<br />
<br />
I LOVE the entire line of the colour burst balms, be it the metallic ones, the matte ones or the original ones. But this have been my fave for the past 2(?) years!! I’ve been using this everyday just as something to brighten up face. this is a pinky nude which is so subtle it actually looks like it’s my lips colour. I can use this with a full face of makeup or without. When I have no makeup on at all and I feel like my face is looking very dead, I’ll just put this on and it instantly makes my skin looks a lot a lot more awake! like I’ve been really really healthy and look radiant!<br />
heeheee. I’ve introduced this to both my sisters as we all have very very dull looking skintone on our lips, not too sure my older sister likes it, but i’m pretty sure my younger sister LOVES it as much as I do!<br />
<br />
The very last product! which helps me with controlling the frizzy hair of mine! keep it somewhat manageable throughout the day is..<br />

The <b>Argan Oil</b>. I believe i’ve talked about this product individually on a post as well, since i’ve been using this product for as long as I can remember. for what I can remember, I’ve finished 3bottles. I have a new bottle of argan oil that is given to me free. So I’ll be using that when i finish this!.<br />
Thanks to this Argan Oil, I can leave the house without drying the hair and yet have manageable hair to work with throughout the day. My hair doesn’t feel like it’s flying all over the place. But it’s partly because i have really manageable hair to work with from the start.<br />
The other thing is when I’m in a rush and have to dry my hair real quick, I’ll just blast the hair dryer on the highest speed with the highest heat. And we all know what happens when we do that. The hair gets damaged. And when I had curls. I had to do it everyday. And applying this twice actually kept my hair in a really really good condition. Even when I visited the hair salon 6mths after the perm, the hair stylist actually said that my hair was kept in a really good condition despite all the chemical i’ve used on my hair in the past.<br />
<br />
I totally had to give this oil a credits, because all I did was to apply this oil before and after drying my hair, and it keeps my hair flyaway free and soft and smooth the entire day! Finger and toes thumbs up for this product!!<br />
<br />
Yea with that it sums up my 5 products that I saved me from being late for work everyday!<br />
<br />
If you’re struggling with being early, or even on time for work, yet you feel you need more time for sleeping! try this out! within 1hr I assure you, you’re be out of house with a full tummy!! That’s of cos you don’t take like 45mins to bathe in the morning. LOL!!!<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading and i’ll speak to you again in the next post!<br />

But it’s really just due to my laziness and lack of motivation to do anything.<br />
<br />
if you noticed, I’ve been a little more active on instagram recently. That’s cause I got myself a new camera! woohooo! I finally gave in the temptation and got a new camera!It’s the canon G7x!<br />
<br />
I don’t need a new camera, i’m just really drawn into the really small and compact size as compared to my g12. and also it has wifi in it.<br />
<br />
I’m not forsaking my g12, still will be using it to take photos. I really feel, nothing is as good as that in terms of my noonish photo taking skills. But for on the go photos, it’ll be from this new camera which is easier to take around.<br />

See how awkward my hands are. LOL! because the g12 is so big, i have to hold it with both hands. and i’m still trying to get use to holding such a small camera. LOL!<br />
<br />
Other than my hands, I really love the photo,don’t know why, but i really love it. we’re waiting for our friend to arrive, and there is the not so cooperative xm. LOL!<br />

<br />
OMG~~~ bring me back!<br />
<br />
-------------------------------------------------<br />
It’s Tuesday today and I forgot to finish my post last night. I am still craving for the same topless 5. Need to resist!!!!<br />
<br />
Haze is coming back again. Seems like it wouldn’t be gone till the next few months!! Please take care of yourselves! drink more water and stay indoors!!!<br />
<br />
PS. I’m not too convinced that the N95 mask works though. So I’m keeping myself and the pups indoors as much as possible. which also means pups don’t get to go on their walks this few weeks): Need to start researching on some enriching activities to keep them occupied and healthy during this period of time! please let me know if you have any activities for them!<br />
<br />
alright I guess i’ll stop here for now!<br />
Thanks for reading!<br />

I totally understand why would people say they’re motivated to blog. be prepared! I was feeling super motivated when I shoot for this post. LOL!<br />
<br />
Me being me always looking for good shortcuts to better skin. HAAHA<br />
You know how the Bioderma was a hype few years ago? Many other companies came out with something similar, some were a hits, others were pretty much misses. I tried the bioderma and totally loved it, but the price really puts me off. and it’s not like I can use it for a really long time ): So i’ve always been on a hunt to try something similar. And here’s the closest I’ve found so far!<br />

they mentioned you can use this to soothe and tone your skin, I just use it to cleanse my skin when i’m too lazy to wash my face, or in the morning when my face is not that gross and I can get away with not washing it OR! when my skin is feeling little dry in the morning and washing it will make it feel even tighter.<br />
<br />

This is what I meant by feeling motivated to blog. LOL! since when do you ever see me in a review post for no reason. HAHAHA totally enjoying it! maybe i’ll do it more often in future HAHAHA!<br />
<br />
PS.It’s morning face if anyone is wondering. Thus no makeup at all. LOL!<br />
PPS. Red Headphone is on because I was watching or maybe more of listening to Youtube Videos while doing this. LOL!<br />

So like the instructions mentioned, just pour it on a cotton pad.<br />
It’s really like water. The nozzle is bigger than the one from bioderma, so it’s really gonna gush out from the nozzle a lot faster than the bioderma! SO! don’t try and shake the bottle to get the product out. just gently tilt it will do.<br />

yes that was necessary. HAHAHAH<br />
I usually just use 2 cotton pads instead of 1. Just cos it works faster and get a better clean while using this.<br />
Well… at least I feel it’s cleaner, and not half of my face is cleaner than another. LOL!<br />

Can you see the dirt on the cotton pad?<br />
Doesn’t seem like a lot. It’s actually the dirt accumulated while sleeping. since I washed my skin before heading to bed.<br />
<br />
I’ve never tried/bother to use this to remove makeup. Because I don’t believe this type of product can remove my makeup and cleanse the skin at the same time. So I just didn’t bother trying.<br />
<br />
Since they mentioned it on the back of the product. I had to try it with some of my go to makeup products.<br />
<br />

I didn’t bother to get a new cotton pad. I just added little more product on the used cotton pad and wipe it once.<br />

Just one slow swipe. I did it slowly because I believe you need the solution to soak into the makeup to loosen(?) them. And I would say it really did a good job with just 1 wipe.<br />

What the cotton pad got with just 1 wipe. WOW! Totally sold. it really does works with removing makeup. But I’m still feeling it won’t be clean enough without washing my face. Just my pet peeve.~<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
A few more wipes and everything is gone!<br />
When i was trying it out. I didn’t added any force on purpose to rub it off or anything. Actually I was trying to find fault with it. But it really works great even while using the least amount of strength!<br />
<br />
Alright, to summarise things up~<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b>Pros</b></span><br />
1) Not Drying<br />
2) Able to cleanse face without leaving residue<br />
3) Able to remove waterproof makeup<br />
4) Scentless<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Cons</span></b><br />
1) A Challenge trying to control the product use to the size of nozzle<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000;"><b>Will I recommend this?</b></span><br />
YES I will! for the price, totally sold.<br />
<br />
<br />
Can’t remember how much it’s selling for but I’m thinking it’s below SGD$15?<br />
<br />
Thanks for reading!<br />
I shall see you in the next post!<br />

<br />
I’m realising everyone I see is loving the cushion puff from the cushion foundation. is it me using it wrongly or i’m just weird. hmmmm.<br />
never mind about that. Let me try it again, maybe i’ll love it too.<br />
<br />
I was looking at my photos recently and i realise, I’m not that hardworking with my skin, because i work so near from home, I don’t even bother to put on makeup unless I really needed to, even for skincare I’ve been really slacking on it recently. on friday, my skin felt really like rubbish, so I decided to give it a little care.<br />

This brings back old memories, especially the sheet mask. I’ve been using this mask for years. till today it remains as one of the few masks I reach. I particularly love the honey and green tea version of the mask.<br />
<br />
Just using a bunch of stuff that I really enjoy to deep cleanse and restore all that lost moisture back into the skin!<br />
<br />
#attempt to me more hardworking again.<br />
<br />
I’m trying to get back into the swing of wearing makeup everyday, so I’ll look more presentable!<br />
I don’t wanna find much excuses~ but I really don’t see the need in dressing up recently, may be due to the industry i’m working in, the people i meet, and my skin is pretty in an alright condition. No breakout, no trouble.<br />
<br />
Just didn’t like how lazy I am now, so trying to get back into the swing of things.<br />
<br />
So just now over lunch, I did a small splurge.<br />

If we were to meet little later, we would have gave this place a miss. If you’re thinking of heading down to have dinner, try and reach there before 7.15pm. If not you have to queue to get a seat. Queueing & I are not friends. LOL! So I’ll give it a miss if we’re too late.<br />
<br />
Manage to get a seat and place is filling around 6.45pm. The food took quite awhile to come, but i guess it’s because we ordered fried stuff.<br />

I had Almond Soya Bean drink. I don’t think many people will like this drink. Especially those who don’t like almond flavouring.<br />
I’m not a fan of almond flavouring, but I don’t like soya bean drinks even more. And in that store most of the drinks are soya bean and those that are not, don’t interest me too. LOL!<br />
After trying a bunch of their soya bean, I realise I prefer the almond one. I guess because the almond flavouring covered the soya bean taste. LOL!<br />

While waiting for our food to arrive, someone decided to look at Facebook, soccer and play games instead of talking to me. LOL! not that I mind~ who am I kidding! YES I MIND! PUT THAT PHONE AWAY! TURN IT OFF!!!!<br />
HAHAHHAHA<br />
ok, I’m joking~ LOL! I’ll play with my phone too. HAHAHHAHA<br />
If you notice we have the same phone case. And it’s not those that are matching couple type, We both are really not the best people at taking good care of our phones, we drop it all the time. So we really need to get a really good phone case that doesn’t have any plastic yet is shock proof. So not the most fancy case, but it does the job HAHHA<br />

On the left is century egg fried eggs. It’s just fried eggs with century egg bits and coriander in it, and topped off with seasoned seaweed, sesame seeds and coriander.<br />
PS. coriander is cilantro if you didn’t know.<br />
<br />
On the right is ……. black pepper mixed grill?It’s just all the soya patty products fried, with sunny side up, fries and some coselaw<br />
<br />
Ok I have a confession, I got this just for the fries and the hotdog. LOL! I didn’t really care for the rest of the things in it. LOL! But it’s ok, we’re sharing HAHAHHAHHAHAHA<br />

Yea and we devour the food. HAHA<br />
It looks like theres a lot. But pictures are deceiving. LOL! I wasn’t really hungry, so we didn’t get 2 mains. Usually we will be able to finish this amount with one more main. LOL!Which explains the waistline. LOL!<br />
<br />
yea pretty much what we did. Then walked to chinatown which was near by and then I headed home while xm headed to work.<br />

Now here I am waiting for him to knock of from work in another 1hr time. Good thing I brought along my laptop so I can do something while waiting.<br />
Here’s my view for the next 1hr.<br />

A cup of chai tea latte, my macbook and my phone. forgot to bring along my headphone. So no music for me. but it’s alright. I have an hr to kill. won’t be too bad!<br />
<br />
So i wanted to talk about a foundation I’ve been using for a good a year now.<br />
This was something I never thought I would ever purchase. but being at the airport when everything was tax free made got it and hence fell in love with it’s finish.<br />

And it’s none other than the Chanel Vitalumiere Auqa foundation.<br />

I believe by now many of you have heard of this foundation and how highly raved it was and still is in the beauty world on the internet.<br />
<br />
I chance upon this foundation while watching fleur's, from fleurdeforce, video. Wanted to try this for the longest time. But was really pulling it back due to the price of the foundation. It’s I think $70+ just for a bottle of foundation. Now that i’ve tried many many foundations, I find the price alright now, but back then… When i was soo in loved with my mac studio fluid foundation., everything just seem too expensive to purchased. so I waited.<br />
<br />
Till one day i walked into the duty free store at the airport and got it!. I think if i didn’t remember wrongly, it’s around $50+<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
It comes in a squeeze bottle. Then it wasn’t a common thing for a foundation to be in a bottle like this. but now it’s the norm. Many makeup brands are coming out with such convenient packaging.<br />
<br />
Still totally in love with this packaging.<br />
Simple, sturdy, compact. What more can i ask. Furthermore!!! it’s plastic!<br />
I can drop it how many times I want and it will not break!<br />
<br />
I got mine in shade B20 Beige. and we all know. B20 are for people with very fair skin. Tanned skin people around nc30 will never be able to pull off with makeup for people with nc20 and fairer. Didn’t know why but I still went ahead and got it!<br />
<br />
But after using it, I realise, the difference isn’t obvious. So I just stuck on with it. In fact. I really like it on my skin. it doesn’t look like it doesn’t match my skintone!<br />
<br />

So this little amount is enough for half a face! Can you believe it?!!!<br />

<br />
This looks like it’s too fair for my skin, in fact it is. But after blending it, it totally blends into the skin.<br />
I applied only on half my face to show you how well it blends despite the shade difference.<br />
<br />
<img alt="IMG 5523" border="0" height="400" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-sHEKgy6sZtE/VeWqTma37YI/AAAAAAAAHQ0/MAHWMrWJaVA/IMG_5523.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5523.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Can you tell that I have foundation on the right side? No right??!!<br />
and the coverage is good! look at the left, the darkness and dullness on the skin is being well blended. And my squinting looks the same, just now awaken.<br />
<br />
Well.. maybe it’s not too noticeable<br />
<br />
<img alt="IMG 5526" border="0" height="400" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-zqDryL5adag/VeWqVE-ePtI/AAAAAAAAHQ8/LYZKSSvZQK0/IMG_5526.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5526.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
And I moved on to apply on the entire face.<br />
For this foundation, I found my favourite way to apply it is like this. Then using my hands blend them out.<br />
I don’t usually enjoy using my hands to apply foundation. I have a friend that totally loves it. But not me. I find it really hard to blend my with fingers when it comes to full coverage foundation.<br />
<br />
But for this, I just love using my hands. The warmth of my fingers actually melts the foundation even more and makes it look like my skin on my face! makes me look like I have flawless skin! totally in love with it.<br />

I have this dark spot on my forehead. and some darkness between my cheekbones and undereyes. And see! I look like I have nothing on!<br />
<br />
Looks like my skin. just in a better condition.<br />
<br />
This foundation is also very light weight, sometimes when I have this foundation on without eyeliner or mascara, I will actually forget I have makeup on and forgot to remove it and head to bed.<br />
PS. Sometimes I just got too lazy to even wash my face.<br />

Unless you really come up close, and saw my very fine hair on my face caught the foundation, it’s almost unnoticeable that I have foundation on.<br />
Like really up close like the above photo<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
Even looking at my cheeks, it doesn’t look cakey. If you don’t focus on my mole, you won’t even notice I have a layer of foundation on my skin. And this side. I actually have 2 layers of foundation on, because it’s the side that I did the half face, then the full face.<br />
<br />
I really have nothing much to complain about this foundation other than the price if I really had to find a flaw on it.<br />
<br />
I was looking at the colour selection to see which exactly is the right shade for me. Turns out it is B40? but B20 works really well. I’m just wondering if B40 give off the same glowy effect it has now with B20 or not. maybe after this bottle I’ll try it with B30. But!!!! there sure is a large range of shades for selection!<br />
<br />
Currently I don’t have dry patches for this foundation to cling on.<br />
But from what I remember. I don’t think this foundation clings much on dry patches. in fact. this makes my skin not feel so dry after using it everyday.<br />
<br />
I don’t have oily skin, so I don’t know if this works on oily skin or not. But from the review I saw online. this foundation is like perfect for all skin type! how can this be?? if this foundation doesn’t work for you, let me know!! I’ll love to know more about it. because so far all I saw about this foundation are just rave. Even from my own experience, it’s also a fantastic one.<br />
<br />
Alright let’s summarise things up<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Pros</span></b><br />
1) Lightweight<br />
2) Will not make face greasy<br />
3) Looks like your skin, doesn’t cake<br />
4) nice scent(musky)<br />
5) Doesn’t cling on dry patches of the skin<br />
6) Blends very easily<br />
<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b>Cons</b></span><br />
1) The Price<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000;">Will I recommend this?</span></b><br />
YES!!! TOTALLY!! If you wanna try a good foundation. Totally give this a go! It’s worth every cent you pay for it and you will not regret it!<br />
I’ve been trying to find a cheaper dupe for this, but everything doesn’t seem to work as well!<br />
If you have any recommendation let me know in the comments below! i’d love to try it out!!<br />
<br />
I won’t even try and tell the you exact price. But it’s about SGD$70-80. Sold in Chanel Makeup counters.<br />
<br />
Alright! I’m done with the post! just nice! in another few more mins time xm will be coming down and we’ll be heading home!<br />
<br />
I’ll see you in the next post!!<br />

Not a very clear photo though. Was intending to post it on insta. But after finish 2 of the pancakes I realise the photo is little blur. TOO LATE FOR A RETAKE!<br />
<br />
So I woke up around 7am, since that’s the time i usually wakes up in the morning. and usually at this time I’ll be rushing for something. I’ll have something to do. Yesterday, it just felt very aimless. Feels like there’s a lot of time and I didn’t had to wake up so early.<br />
<br />
Came down and decided to make a nicer breakfast for myself. So I looked through the cabinet and found some pancake mix and made the above.<br />
<br />

Soo all that you need is 1 cup of pancake flour and 3/4cups of water. mix it well and it’s ready to grill on the pan.<br />
<br />
The tea i had was just Lipton Yellow Tea Bag with 2teaspoon of condensed milk, Easy Peasy.<br />
<br />
After having one of the 3 Pancakes I was bloated! totally bloated. didn’t had lunch after that. Made good use of the time and decided to take some photos for reviews!<br />
<br />
Feels like I took a lot. but came to think about it, there doesn’t seem to be much. HAHA Maybe I chilled too much<br />
<br />
Set up my camera and we’re ready to roll<br />

Work station for the day. Seems neat but within secs the entire area is a mess!<br />
Had a book there, to entertain myself when i wanna take a break, but didn’t ended up reading it, instead ended up watching YouTube videos. LOL!<br />
<br />
Not too sure why recently there’s so many mosquito. Everyone in the family are all bitten by them, so at night we burnt the mosquito coil to get rid of the mosquito. But the scent is stinks a little when it’s been lingering for the entire day. So I had to light up the candle to cover it.<br />

This is the candle i’m using.<br />
It’s Love & Sunshine from Bath and Body Works. Love how floral and citrusy it smells. Totally refreshes the entire room. After blowing out the candle, there’s this candle being blown out scent. LOL!<br />
<br />
Later in the after when my parents are back, I decided to head down and join them in the living room.<br />

Vegetarian Chicken Rice.<br />
<br />
It’s comfort food for both xm and I, especially mum’s cooking. This is nice on it’s on, but it’s even better when you add the chilli sauce that my mum made. SUPER YUMMY! Had 2 plates of this that night! No wonder I can never slim down. LOL!<br />
<br />
Went over to grandpa’s place to visit him, and that pretty much sums up my Saturday.<br />
<br />
Today was an even more chilled day. Woke up had tea and watch YouTube Videos until lunch time. Had lunch and started taking more photos for a post, and yes back to watching YouTube video until last in the afternoon brought ozzy and domo walk their walks before I bathed them. And the day ended. LOL!<br />
<br />
Why does my day sounds so sad today! LOL!<br />
I use to love this kind of day! I’m still loving it, but it feels so aimless!<br />
<br />
I guess i’m just not use to having no aim in a day. NOOOOO~~~~ need to learn how to relax!<br />
<br />
Yea that sums up my weekends. HAHA<br />
<br />
I’ll think of more things to do next week, if not i’ll get really bored in few weeks time!<br />
<br />
Let me end with a photo of us.<br />

So, I’m gonna get to trying them out and sharing my experience with you! Hence the Birth of Sample Size Saturday. LOL!<br />
<br />
PS. Usually if i’m not interested in the sample,which i’ve mindlessly stash them away in the drawer, I had never heard any reviews, rave or anything to even gain interest in them, so I thought this is gonna be a really interesting series of posts to share as I wouldn’t have a “check list” to take note of. instead all opinions is based on what i’ve tried out of the packet.<br />
<br />
So let’s get started~<br />

I saw the full size item in their store recently and I thought it looks really cute for something you use in a shower, but it didn’t really catch my eyes to wanna try them.<br />

This is the description on the website. I never seen it on the packaging so i thought I might as well just include this it.<br />
<br />
<blockquote class="tr_bq">
<span style="font-family: inherit; font-size: 12px; line-height: 16px; widows: 1;"><i>This refreshing body shower gel containing grape seed oil rich in vitamin E and unsaturated fatty acids, provides deep cleansing down to pores, while making skin resilient, smooth, and moist.</i></span></blockquote>

So this is what came out of the sample pack<br />

Not sure if you spot them, the darker beads you see one the right are the jojoba beads(?) It’s like beads you can find in a scrub? there’s very few of them, and it’s really big considering it’s for scrub.<br />
<br />
There’s also shimmers in the shower gel, if you spot white spots in the photo above, that’s the shimmers that they have in it.<br />
<br />
The consistency of the product is really very thick, which is feel this amount will be enough for the entire body, and too much just on the hands and arms. The entire sachet is more than enough for one use. If you use it sparingly, maybe you can use it for the 2nd or 3rd use? I’ve gotta say, it’s a pretty generous sample pack.<br />
<br />
<img alt="IMG 5548" border="0" height="450" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-HhXZ43h1ZoQ/VeF6WTHg0aI/AAAAAAAAHOM/n9xZViEC3SM/IMG_5548.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5548.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Maybe because it’s a gel? and the consistency of it is really thick, it doesn’t foam up as well as I expected. It actually lathers up to a thick white cream. Your body sure have to be well soaked for this product to work.<br />
I noticed on areas where there isn’t much water, the product tends to cling at that area. But we all know that’s how all shower foams are.<br />
<br />
Since they said it’s a shower gel and not a foam, I guess I shouldn’t have expected bubbles and foam to be formed on my body. HAHAHA<br />
<br />
I was expecting a grape scent I guess? but this smells nothing like grapes. It smells hmmm. mostly like soap and something sweet. Something between flowers and fruits. But nothing near grapes.<br />
<br />
I wouldn’t say it’s a bad scent, in fact I quite enjoy the scent it gives out. This is not too overpowering like some other shower foam I’ve use. Yet the scent subtly lingers on for hours. I’ve showered at 12noon earlier and it’s almost 5pm now. Did some work and sweat out little, and the scent is still lingering around.<br />
<br />
The scrub that was observed earlier, it didn’t go away or melt into the skin. it’s like.. It’s just there the entire time until I rinse my body. Because it’s so few of them in the product, it doesn’t really do much in the scrubbing department. So I’m actually not too sure what are those bits there for.<br />
<br />
After rinsing my body, I felt there was layer of something. It’s not a bad feeling, but you know it’s there. I’m guessing it’s the grape seed oil? but it’s oily at all. It doesn’t make you feel that your body is not clean. it’s just feels like there is a layer of something, which can possibly pass of as “Maybe this is the moisturiser to help moisture my skin better” feeling.<br />
<br />
My skin instantly felt smoother and softer. My heels are not dry and scratchy. Usually when i run my heels on the blanket, the dry area actually catches some loose silk on the blanket and you can totally feel it. But just now, I unknowingly run heels down the blanket, I felt unusual. MY HEELS GLIDED OFF THE BLANKET! after using this only for once, it actually makes my heels feel more moisturised! Now, 5hrs after using this, the heels are getting back to picking up little of the feeling again, but it’s just a little. Not like now it usually is. So I guess if i added lotion after showering with this products, the effect will be better. but for now, I’m satisfied.<br />
<br />
I feel my limps are more moisturised as compared to when i shower and not add any lotion after.<br />
My skin doesn’t flake into powdery/chalky feeling when i rub them. It actually feels quite clean~<br />
Although it doesn’t lather up like how I wanted it, but i guess it does a good job at keeping them clean!<br />
<br />
I didn’t like the idea that the layer of something something left behind was felt under my arm. As you all know, I struggled with BO when I was young and occasionally now. having to feel something that is not deodorant under my arms makes me really insecure. But since i’m at home all day, i’ve decided to skip deodorant and see if this will produce BO. After 5hrs, I noticed abit of it, but I had to rub my hands real rough to get it. So I it’s ok for now. But I’m not too sure I’ll go out without a deodorant when i’m using this. I’ll probably apply just in case. Since it didn’t prevented it totally.<br />
<br />
Yea this is pretty much what I’ve experienced so far.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000;"><b>Will I purchase the full size?</b></span><br />
<br />
Just went to google the price of this.. WOW!<br />
It’s SGD$14.00 for a bottle of 260ml.!For the amount product you get in the full size, it’s more expensive that what you can get from the drugstore. But I guess I’ll get the full size for days I wanna pamper myself, yet don’t have the time to? they have another 2 more body product in that line which i’ve never tried. And i realise my sister has the emulsion of that line, maybe i’ll try it one day and share my thoughts on them. But for now I will not purchase this item as something I’ll use daily, due the price.<br />
If your budget avail, and you’re totally into luxurious body products, it’s worth getting to try out. But for me, $14.00 for 260ml, is a little too luxurious for my bank account to handle if I fall in love with it! So I guess for now I won’t get it. I’ll wait till the day where I feel my body needs pampering due to the crazy schedule I have to face everyday. But until then. I’ll resist the urge to get it. HAHA<br />
<br />
<br />
Alright, that's the end & I’ll see you in the next post!<br />

<br />
I realise there isn’t a need/point for me to summarise what it says on the products since there’s pictures.<br />
<br />
I’m not too sure why all i find over the internet is the tube version and I have this. But i got mine from Guardian and Watsons. So it can’t be imitation.PS. I have it in the tube version too.<br />
<br />
Not too sure if i mentioned it before, but my skin breaks out into rashes like crazy when i’m in a colder country. like when it’s 20degree celsius or lower.<br />
I haven’t been to the doctor or anything to find out why. because i didn’t felt that it was a serious problem. So i just lived with it. The rashes/breakout will disappear within a week after I return home anyway.<br />
<br />
When this product got released, they were sending out samples of this and their cleanser. Knowing that Cetaphil is very suitable for people with sensitive/problematic skin, I decided to give it a go, take the risk, and only bring this along with me on the trip which was just a week later.<br />
<br />
Maybe because I didn’t apply enough, I still had breakout/rashes. But it was better. So I was thinking, this may really help me with future trip! So i went to get the full size tube(PS The sample is only enough to use a week if you use it very sparingly, so if it’s like how i’m normally using it, 4times and you’re out of it).<br />
<br />
And the brought then full size tube along on my next trip and apply it like how i usually apply moisturiser.<br />
I’ve got to say. it’s not the nicest feeling to have such thick moisturizer on. But the cold weather made it felt better. The only annoying thing is my face felt unbearably sticky. So i had to powder my face quite bit or changed my entire makeup to suit oily skin.<br />
<br />
BUT!!! it works!!! from then on, every time i go on trips, I’ll make sure to use this and the rashes and breakouts are kept well under control.<br />
<br />
After I started working, I get rashes on my legs and They’re always mega itchy a week after i epilate my legs. I don’t know why. Maybe because i’m always in cold environments?Since it never occurs when i epilate my legs while schooling.<br />
<br />
Yea then one day I remember this product works for my face, and since it’s also body moisturiser, I just spammed it on my legs where it itches. and sure enough IT WORKS!<br />

This is how it looks like before i apply my daily moisturiser.<br />
<br />
I don’t apply this on my legs everyday, since it isn’t really necessary. I only apply this to stop the itch.<br />
But i use this on my face everyday. Just to prevent it from breaking out due to the weather & the room while sleeping.<br />
<br />
<br />
One thing for sure. I will not apply this in the day in Singapore. the face is gonna feel soo stuffy, oily and sticky for the entire day. & who likes this feeling? no one. Well at least not me~<br />
<br />
In terms of hydrating, it really works. I have relatively dry cheeks. Sleeping in the air-conditioned room makes things worse. If my moisturiser isn’t hydrating enough, even if i have a sleeping mask on, my face will feel tight and dry in the morning. You know how some people tell you they’ll just skip moisturiser since sleeping mask works well enough. Well if i’m only applying sleeping mask without moisturiser, it doesn’t work as well. sigh.. the struggles real.<br />
<br />
So the only way (for now) is to use all very moisturising/hydrating skincare at night and top everything off with this lotion then sleeping mask. And when i wake up the next day, there is no tightness around my cheeks. This also leaves my face feeling soft, smooth and bouncy.<br />
If you know a better way let me know!!! I’ll be more than willing to try it out!<br />
<br />
Alright let’s summarise things up!<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;">Pros</span></b><br />
1) Good for relieving itch and rashes<br />
2) Keeps skin hydrated all day long<br />
3) Good for sensitive skin<br />
4) Scent Free<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b>Cons</b></span><br />
1) Thick and Heavy consistency<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000;">Will I recommend this?</span></b><br />
This really depends what your priorities are.<br />
If it’s just to moisturise your skin, I feel other moisturising creams works the same, or even better at least they can eliminate the stick and stuffy feeling.<br />
If you have problematic skin condition similar to mine. Then this is totally worth the investment! I went to my friend’s house in the past. wondering why their family spend so much money on the entire line of cetaphil. Thought it was a gimmick or something. But it proved me wrong when i had to use it. it really is worth every single bit when you have to deal with such problems.<br />
<br />
This retails at SGD$49.90 for the big bottle & SGD$25.50 for the tube at any Watsons and Guardian Outlets.<br />

Ever since the tick infestation earlier in March, Ozzy and Domo rarely leaves the house. Not even for walks.Even though we had more than enough space for them to run around at home, we felt that it wasn’t enough. Now that we’ve done with that, and we know what to do with it if it comes again, we thought we shall bring them on a half day adventure at ECP!~ (which they have never been to)<br />

PS. It’s really a tormenting 4mths.<br />

Because it was a private gathering, and I’m not sure if the people there would like to be on my blog, i didn’t take any photos.<br />
And also. I wanted them to enjoy themselves. so I partially forgot to do it too. HAHAHA<br />
<br />
We headed home and bathe them and.. Both of them knocked out! totally knocked out!<br />
<br />
xm came over after that. And they didn’t seem to notice it at all.<br />
I’ve never seen them soo tired ever.<br />
went out for dinner and came home ready to head to bed. and this is what i see.<br />

<br />
And just over the weekend, xm had enough of prepping for his exams he wanted to have a nice dinner. Having a free complementary 8-course meal at Sufood, we decided to head over.<br />
<br />
I took out my phone to check if there’s anything on my face. and this is what happened.<br />

there’s actually more but let me not make you all sick with it. HAHAHAH<br />
<br />
I don’t know if my skin is improving due to the luxury of time to take care of my face or because of the products I’m using. But nonetheless. I think my skin is of pretty good condition now!<br />
<br />
PS. I don’t have any makeup on. Not even lipstick!<br />
<br />
Then i realised my phone had this function where you can take both with the front and back camera!! LOL!. so we ( more of just me) were playing with it. LOL!<br />

At the studio when everyone is still getting dressed and i’m all ready.<br />
Everyone seem to be having a hard time with their gown and makeup.I’m just standing around so. I thought let’s take a selfie. HAHAHAHA<br />
<br />
Wearing the gown again, I didn’t have much feelings.Same as the first time. I never felt that i accomplished something or had any special feelings about it. I’m in the. ok. I’m in my gown. ok.. we’re having a photoshoot next mood. LOL!<br />
<br />
after the shoot where they’re still processing our receipt, we decided to take a random family shot in the middle of the studio. Not everyday you have everyone dressed up so smartly ok!<br />
So I present to you… MY FAMILY!!!<br />

domo domo how heavy can your head be. LOL!<br />
<br />
recently he have been doing this when we carry him up like this. really cute.<br />
<br />
If you’re wondering why domo looks different. We shaved them down due to the infestation. so we can easily check for ticks on their body. We’re now growing them out now. hang in there! few more months before you both are good looking again!<br />
<br />
<br />
alright. I think i’ll end here for today!!<br />

The more I edited the more I felt that it’s not YouTube worthy. So I decided to just trash that video.I’ve been doing that for the past 2 videos.<br />
<br />
No inspiration. Not satisfied with the videos.So. delete delete delete!<br />
<br />
ok putting depressing thing aside, let’s talk about food today!<br />
<br />
Because of all the sharing and reposting on Facebook, xm and I discovered the newly opened Elemen Vegetarian Restaurant @Millenia Walk and decided to try it on a weekdays since we’re scared they may be full on a weekend.<br />
<br />
This restaurant is similar to Sufood where they serves 8course meal. Really liking Sufood, we decided to give it a go. And here’s our food~<br />
<br />
PS. There’ll be a lot of comparison with Sufood, since their only competitor I know is Sufood. Pardon that.<br />
<br />
<img alt="20150729 192004" border="0" height="337" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-WEPPKQ3vmNo/VdHsGiBnOdI/AAAAAAAAHCI/--rH0nfyKuk/20150729_192004.jpg?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="20150729_192004.jpg" width="599" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The starter is really good. they recommend to eat from right to left.<br />
The one on the right taste like some Japanese style treat. The sauce taste like soya sauce something.And the thing that’s wrapped in the cucumber, is yellow bean paste. My fave filling for ang ku kueh.<br />
<br />
The one in the middle is sesame overload! Black sesame tofu with sesame sauce and alfalfa sprouts. It’s alright, maybe i’m just not a sesame lover~<br />
<br />
The one on the left is plum infused cherry tomato. My best description. HAHAHA it’s better than a regular tomato. I never really like tomatoes, but it’s really good.<br />
<br />
<img alt="20150729 192015" border="0" height="600" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-vBylcFHj0s8/VdHsIERBs1I/AAAAAAAAHCQ/ytkO0qEpMTY/20150729_192015.jpg?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="20150729_192015.jpg" width="337" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Then we had breadsticks. Similar to the one at Sufood it’s also Rosemary Breadstick. Not too sure we got the bad lot or what. The Breadsticks tasted little stale. Both xm and I felt it. Quite disappointing. But we guess it’s just us with the bad lot.<br />
<br />
The next dish is actually the cider drink. its a apple cider vinegar i think. it taste sweeter than the one in Sufood. Like this better because the one in Sufood has a very strong vinegar-y taste which I’m not too much of a fan of.<br />
<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
I think this is the Avocado Salad. The sauce is Plum if I didn’t remember wrongly.<br />
<br />
Taste really refreshing and I like it! but xm doesn’t seem to be a fan of it. I’m thinking cos he’s just too Chinese and he don't fancy sour food as a meal. so.. yea.<br />
<br />
<br />

This is their Mushroom Salad. It’s quite a disappointment. It tasted quite bland and nah.. it doesn’t interest the both of us. maybe we’re just not people who like bland food. This tasted like mushroom in diluted soya sauce actually. But i guess we’re just not that good with taste. LOL!<br />

<br />
Mushroom Soup with truffle oil above and Maca Soup at the bottom. Not too sure what’s Maca Soup but it’s recommended by the person taking our order. HAHA so we just got it~<br />
<br />
Mushroom soup is good. the maca soup is good as well. little bland but it’s still a plus since I didn’t got sick of it~ so it’s a good thing! LOL<br />

We had 2 mains, first being Mushroom Truffle Pizza or something. It’s really good! I love it. But xm doesn’t like the veg on the top of the pizza. I think xm just doesn’t like raw veg that much. But he likes the pizza. HAHA<br />

Next is Avocado Sushi.<br />
xm and i felt it’s the sushi my mother makes at home topped with avocado and drizzled with some special soya sauce.<br />
<br />
I’m not saying it’s not worth it. My mum makes really good sushi. So it feels like home made food<br />
<br />
After this dish, I started wondering what is the approach towards their dishes are.<br />
I’m thinking it’s healthy homemade feeling food.<br />
Their food isn’t the best tasting ones out there. But it sure is healthy and has the feeling that it’s made like how my mother cooks.<br />
PS. my mother cooks really well. Yes I have to mention it again. Because I strongly feel mum’s cooking is the best!<br />
<br />
And also when i was there, i felt that the restaurant is very cosy and homely.very comfortable<br />
<br />

<br />
Lastly it was dessert and refreshing drinks.<br />
Above is lava cake with vanilla ice cream. OMG!!! it’s really good!! xm and i were fighting for it! LOL! serving was huge as well and not stingy!<br />
<br />
The drink is lychee something. Yea we’re both fighting for it too. It’s really good!!!<br />
<br />
<img alt="20150729 203527" border="0" height="337" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-lQJCAndRnFc/VdHsT-folnI/AAAAAAAAHDQ/-ADro6CYHO8/20150729_203527.jpg?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="20150729_203527.jpg" width="599" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
The other dessert and drink is Grapefruit tea and Raspberry Panna Cotta.<br />
we were warned that the drink will taste bitter since they use pure grapefruit. I was thinking at the back of my head, “How bad can it be~” but after drinking for a while, it’s really bitter. HAHAHA which explains why xm and I were fighting over the lychee tea. HAHA But doesn’t mean it’s not good. It is. But too bitter for our liking. HAHA<br />
<br />
The panna cotta is good too. that sour hint from the berry sauce makes the milky panna cotta really refreshing. And doesn’t make me sick after eating so much of milky stuff.<br />
<br />
PS.I’m not a fan of milky stuff.<br />
<br />
At the payment counter they gave us takeaway mocha as door gift. I didn’t have mine since my sister ate it up. HAHAHAHA<br />
<br />
it’s little expensive. Think it’s $37?? around that price. but i guess a once in a while thing i good~<br />
Will i support them again, yes i will! I think because it’s a really new restaurant they’re still trying to figure out what’s the best! of course I have to support them even more. And also i was really touched by their service. Really attentive and approachable.Yea like i mentioned before it feels cosy and homely there. So I will patronise them again. Definitely~<br />
<br />
If you’re hesitating, give it a go. And see if it’s of your liking.<br />
<br />
To finish the post, here’s my view for the night<br />

<br />
If you’re wonder what’s going on. i’m changing the template of my blog. still trying to see how things go along~ and waiting for xm’s exam to end so i can bug him to do a new banner for me!<br />
not too long before his exam ends. so. let’s just bear with it~<br />
<br />
For the past month due to the rainy and cold weather, i have been living in jeans and long pants. Since there isn’t much show for my legs, I’ve been neglecting it totally. And i noticed something last night.<br />

OMGGGG!!! MY LEG’S HAIR IS ON FULL FORCE!!!<br />
<br />
Sadly yes. This is how my legs look like when i don’t pay much attention to it at all. so dry, so hairy, so not attended to.<br />
<br />
kindly ignore those scars on the legs. I’m not the most feminine girl since young, neither am the most careful person. All these dark spot scars are being accumulated for over 20years. every scar have it’s story. so let’s just let them chill there and ignore them~<br />
<br />
Being super hairy since young, i’ve tried many ways to remove those excess hair. Shaving, waxing, hair cream removal, bleaching plucking and many more. I’ve tried them all. the only one that I haven’t tried is IPL, mainly cos i can’t bear to part with the money. So if any company is nice enough to sponsor me for IPL or permanent hair removal~ Thankyou in advance!!~<br />

Ok! before i go off tangent again, my favourite way to remove hair on my arms, under arm and legs is actually using this product.<br />
<br />

Another attempt to make it look better. HAHAHA!<br />
I have been using this epilator for years. Since 2010 till today. I’ve recommended this to friends and family around me. It’s a must!<br />
<br />
If i were to go on a long trip and only bring 1 electronic item, it will be this. Not Clarisonic, not hair tools, but THIS!<br />
<br />
Now we’re on the same page. now you know how much I love this product!<br />
<br />
removing hair haven’t been easier after this product came around~<br />
<br />

Goodbye Hair! See you in few weeks time!<br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
Yes stickers overload is necessary HAHA<br />
<br />
So this process is actually really simple, just keep your epilator perpendicular to where you want to epilate and go against the direction of hair growth, just like below shown.<br />
<br />
<img alt="IMG 5374" border="0" height="450" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-9PiBva_TNYg/Vc2TT9PcqwI/AAAAAAAAHBc/bIAU9GFY-8I/IMG_5374.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5374.JPG" width="600" /><br />

<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
Sometimes i won’t bother which direction the hair growth is, because we all know. In every situation there will be that rebellious ones. So I’ll usually go in circle motion all around the legs until all the hair are gone.<br />
<br />
<br />
You will make a bit of a mess. But it’s not as messy as waxing and it’s really easy to clean up. So don’t worry~<br />

TADAAA~~ HAIRLESS LEGS AFTER LESS THAN A MIN!<br />
<br />
Now attempt 2 on taking a sexy leg shot.<br />
<br />
<img alt="IMG 5384" border="0" height="450" src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-Rai-1sPLSl0/Vc2TWm45fVI/AAAAAAAAHBs/6WB94g9BNCU/IMG_5384.JPG?imgmax=800" style="float: left;" title="IMG_5384.JPG" width="600" /><br />

This shot is taken right after i epilated my legs. Usually after epilating I’ll let my leg cool down for abit since I get rashes and red spots almost immediately. Then I’ll head on to the bathroom to scrub those dead and dried skin off with a gentle scrub and head on with applying a thick moisturiser, usually a body butter, and my legs will stay really smooth~<br />
<br />
I think there isn’t much to continue saying about this product so let’s just move on to summarising it!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><b><u>Pros</u></b></span><br />
1) Inexpensive<br />
2) Removes hair really fast<br />
3) Easy to clean up<br />
4) Almost allergy free!(unless there is some what of allergy i don’t know of)<br />
5) Small and handy (hardly takes up any space in your suitcase)<br />
6) Remove all hair, even those fine ones<br />
<br />
<span style="color: #990000; font-size: large;"><u><b>Cons</b></u></span><br />
1) Hair still grows out<br />
2) Will experience a little pain<br />
<br />
<br />
<b><span style="color: #990000;">Will I recommend this?</span></b><br />
Do i still need to say more? Of course I will! i have a wax pot at home which is use it to remove all my hair before i found out about epilator, but ever since i got this epilator, the wax pot is only to remove that female moustache on me~<br />
My sisters got epilators for themselves after how i crazily rave it to them. they didn’t get the same model, and i went to try them out.<br />
To be honest, I very much prefer this model, although every epilator does the same job, but this, not too sure why, it’s less painful.<br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;">This product retails for <u><i>SGD$49.00</i></u> at Courts, Harvey Norman, Fair price Extra and many more.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: inherit;"><br />
PS. Because i got this 5years ago, they changed the packaging to a pink one.</span><br />
