Love your face - try some facemask!

Maybe lots of you are not really a big fan of facemask, but believe me, if you are  one that doesnt have the time and extra bucks to go to a spa, you definetly should be trying this, its Korea's  No. 1 Hydrogel Mask Brand and its finally available now in Singapore. Faith in Face is a hydrogel mask that contains a high percentage of water soluble ingredients to deliver maximal hydration and superior rejuvenation.  It also have a gentle formula so its suitable for all, it cools the skin, thanks to  beta-glucans which also rejuvenates stressed out skin. If you love watching all those Korean series,for sure you will begin to wonder how to achieve a more luscious looking skin - try some Faith in Face Facemask.

Available in  five variants:

1. After shower look hydrogel mask- intense hydration and moisture retention capabilities

2. Black and white film star - anti- ageing effect that improves and lightens skin tone

3. Nourish Me- provides the ultimate nourishment - to protect, maintain and strengthen your  skin to prevent damage

4. Invisible Pore - effectively minimize pores 

5. Hold me tight - restores moisture level to restore elasticity and bounce

  Exclusively available at Watsons
 for $14.50 for box of 3 sheets

The mask is split into two: bottom and  top part of the face. Its not a regular microfiber nor cotton sheet, its a Hydrogel mask so its flimsy, it holds more serum compared to other face mask. To apply, place the mask onto your face using the smooth side and then peel off the other plastic sheet. Allow 10 - 20 minutes before taking it off.  I suggest putting it in your fridge before using, it makes it more colder, I believe it becomes more effective too.

Happy pampering ladies and enjoy the rest of the week.

Tea Buddy: Unique and cute tea infusers

Thank God it’s Friday, typically if it’s the weekend we share some unforgettable and favourite finds on forums and apps. Today I’m going to reveal Instagram worthy tea infusers that I found.  A week before I started my three weeks tea detox, I went on a mall and cyber hunting shopping to get myself a tea infuser. The detox tea which I used was a loose leaf one so I really need something to use to help me achieve flatter tummy in 3 weeks! Among the ones I saw, here are my favourites:

Ouch! but he is cute, $25 at Takashimaya Dept Store

Mr. Tea from gvdeal $5

Heart Shape Infuser, $8 online via dolphinz

Tea Sub, $10

Umbrella, $9

Duckie, $10

For cat lovers!

Pug in Mug

Swinging girl tea infuser

This one is healthy!

Ikea, 2 for $3

Strong brew tea infuser

Lemon Tea Infuser, $3.90 from gingerbud, there is one in
strawberry shape too!

Tea shirt

Too bad I can’t get all of them, but just in case you know somebody who is a tea lover, I suggest you might want to get one of these for them, especially now that the Holidays are near!

Happy Friday loves!

My two weekends in Photos

I miss putting up an outfit and sale finds here on the blog, blame it on the very busy work week, including Saturday, I don’t have that much time to write and take photos.  But thankfully, the work shift has now allowed me to be free every weekend. I already enjoyed my 3 work free weekends, and now I am ready again to commit on posting great finds, and sharing my inspirations to keep everything chic and lovely!

Ladies, let me share my past 2 weekends in photos, I get to wear the other floral romper which I purchased some time ago, (click here for the link), get a new hat, just because …… I know it’s not a typical outfit accessory but a good floppy hat really helps especially when you are walking around on a sunny day.  Aside from getting it for only $5, yes believe it! , the color really helps up to brighten your OOTD.  So without further ado, here are my off days summary in photos!

 

This maroon Floppy Brim Hat completes my OOTD, I got it online for $5 only.                                                         

My hat and these colored stone walls.

Walk with me to Sentosa

How did I manage to balance and still strike a pose? I can coz
I'm at the Trick Eye Museum

How can I not share this with you? Pretty girls enjoying
posing too!

Enjoyed the day with these ladies.

Of course there is no better way to end up a day
than to get a blueberry ice cream.

Skin 911: Palmer's White and Even CBB Cream & Dark Spot Corrector

Cheers to the long weekend and hello lovelies!  So much stuff has been going on nowadays, that’s why a long hiatus again from the blog, (a weeklong vacation to the Philippines, and moving to a different apartment) with all these crazy but sweet busyness including the constant change of weather, I think my skin needs a 911.  

A have a couple of breakouts that has left some dark spots on my skin.  To help me out on these dilemma, I tried Palmer's White and Even Range:

• Palmer’s White & Even CBB Cream – it’s a cream that has a multifunctional formula that targets discoloration and spot while providing natural pigment-perfecting coverage and SPF 15 protection, helping to prevent darkening from recurring.
• Palmer’s White & Even Dark Spot Corrector – this formula delivers a concentrated dose of advanced ingredients to target discoloration such as age spots, dark spots, post acne scars and sun damage, to even skin tone.

 There are a lot of causes that leads to discoloration of the skin – to much exposure to the sun which becomes worse with age, acne scarring (my case!) severe dryness, pregnancy, birth control pills or hormone replacement therapy.  My breakouts caused some dark spots on my cheeks, so now I’m using the Palmer's White & Even CBB Cream as base before I put on make-up, it offers just about the right coverage, its very light and smells good too! At night after cleansing my skin, I apply the Palmer’s White and Even Dark Spot Corrector, oh I love the white lily fragrance, over a week’s use, I noticed that the spots has become a bit lighter.

Its available at Watsons, Guardian, BHG, Robinsons, John Little, Essentials Pharmacy, Nishino Pharmacy, all leading pharmacies, departmental and cosmetics stores.

I’m sure you’ve been to lots of vacation which entails long exposure to the sun, so give your skin some 911 and try some of these Palmer's White and Eventone perfecting range. Its offers unique skin gone correcting formula, potent but gentle ingredients that helps reduce hyper-pigmentation, free of parabens, sulphates, synthetic dyes and fragrance.

Love your skin ladies and happy weekend!

Clyde

But I’m not pregnant, and have them! Ladies do any of you worry about stretch marks? I do! It’s humiliating to admit but I have those ugly lines at the side of my hips and inner thigh, ugh!

Well there’s this new product from Palmer’s, The Palmer’s Stretch Mark Spray Lotion  that is specially designed to help us get rid of those ugly marks. You can soothe itchy, stretching skin with pure Cocoa Butter, Vitamin E, Soy Lechithin and Bio C-Elaste.  Bio C-Elaste is a powerful combination of Centella Asiatica, Collagen, Elastin, Sweet Almond Oil and Argan Oil that absorbs quickly into skin while providing 24 hour stretch mark fighting moisture.

Beach Bling: Metallic Tattoos

Summer is really here, and I bet you've just been on a swimming trip last holiday. It’s been really a while since I've been to the beach so last Easter Sunday together with friends we hit the beach.  The long hour drive and the fear of leaving something behind whenever on a vacation (wink …becoming forgetful), I do not bring gold or precious jewelry on trips. Have the same fear as mine? If you have, this latest trend is really a must have for your future getaway, concert or party event that you're planning to go to.  Ladies have you tried Metallic tattoos?

They're so cute, no need to worry

 about missing a piece of jewelry when

on vacation!

Oh hi Bey!

Metallic tattoos are very pretty and chic, they can be worn by itself or match it with your other fashion accessories, and they really look adorable.  They can be worn as a necklace, bracelet, ring, anklet and just anywhere! Tattoos are not just for kids anymore, I’ve seen them a lot on TV, magazines, celebrities, fashion bloggers and models. They are pretty easy to put on, just make sure you skin is free from oil or creams, remove the clear cover and position the design carefully, press with wet cloth to transfer and let design set. It can last up to a week.

You can order them online or  purchase it from your favorite accessory shops.

VS Model Alessandra Ambrosio

 Get those gold, silver and black inks on, gorgeous!
