Review: Laneige's Fresh Calming Series

I am back! I went on a long hiatus due to lots of commitment in my life! In these few years, time really flies! Tried so much stuff and went to many places that I feel like sharing with everyone. Laneige's latest skincare product - Fresh Calming series really caught my eye with their lovely peach hues bottles. I am a sucker for beautiful packaging. Furthermore, their plant-derived extract is from the lychee fruit, I am so in love with fruit-scented/fruit extract products. Hence, I got help to get the whole series bought from Lotte World in Korea. Now, I am always looking forward to getting my morning regime done! A far cry from the lazy me, who dread putting product after product after product on my face. Who is the same as me? Getting on to the products, first up is Laneige's fresh calming gel cleanser! I really like that the nozzle dispense just the right amount of gel cleanser for my face with one pump. A small ten-cent coin amount goes a long way with enough fo

My thoughts on Beyond Beauty and Avène Thermal Spring Water.

It's such a long time since the last time I've posted! I have been so busy! I just downloaded blogger app. It seemed very easy to navigate around. If it is really that simple, perhaps my blog posts will be more frequent from now.  What spurred me to post an entry was a comment from  angelsouza. I am really fortunate to be the lucky few who benefitted from beyond beauty sessions. I am still continuing my diamond peel back treatment with them and also started on facial treatments with them. (more about these treatments on next entries)I hate hard selling too~ *sigh* why can't they leave us alone and just let us decide ourselves after we tried out the trial session? If the treatment/product is good, we as consumers definitely are willing and eager  to pay for the product. I'm switching and using all sorts of beauty products all the time that I can actually walk around Watsons and know what product is super thumb up and what product is meh~ Currently, I'm f

Batam BCC Hotel Review

Hey~ Been so so so long to blog a new post~! I manage to squeeze in a short 3D2N holiday trip to Batam in January. Cheap food +  cheap movie tickets + cheap arcade gaming + cheap kbox session!!! I can foresee that Batam is going to be some annual trip destination for me. Haha... This time round I check in to this new hotel called BCC Hotel. The location is superb! Just 2mins walk to Batam City Square Shopping Centre (not to be missed shopping centre aside from Nagoya). The staff there are friendly & nice too~ They greeted me as I walked along the corridors too. The room is really spacious! There's a kettle, mini fridge, complimentary mineral water, tea/coffee~ Hair dryer needs to be requested from housekeeping. Love the room size :)  BCC hotel has numerous channels for the television~ If my memory served me well, there's discovery world, movie channel, HBO, sports channel...etc~ There's Singapore's channel 8 & 5 but the viewing quality is quite bad~

Review: Beyond Beauty Diamond Peel Back Treatment from Groupon

Hi all! I did mention in my first blogpost that I've bought a groupon for $18 in exchange for a Diamond Peel Back Treatment at Beyond Beauty. (Click here for blogpost)  I have made a appointment on Wednesday but there seemed to be some misunderstanding and my appointment was booked at Thursday. =.= So off I went to Beyond Beauty for the treatment. Firstly I was to fill up a particular form and then ushered into a room where I would be doing the treatment. Pictures of the room~ Though small, but it's cozy The basin and mirror in the room The bed The diamond peel machine that was used  I was told to take off my top and lie onto the bed, face facing downwards while they(the beautician & the consultant) took a look at my back skin condition. They asked me if I wanted to upgrade to treatment mask which cost $88. I declined. Then, they went on to analyse my back and asked if I wanted to blah blah blah... To be truthful, I'm still lying with my

Review: Lassie'el Eye Refresh Aqua Gel Patch

Bought 3 boxes of new eye masks from SASA and thus decided to use up Lassie'el Eye Refresh Aqua Gel Patch that I have bought beforehand. How it looks like It was the 1st time for me to try on a gel eye patch, so I was rather hopeful that it could improve my dark eye circles~ The estimated time to wear the patch is 30mins but I wore it for 1hour or so. (kiasu-ness) Haha... The back of the packaging  Bought it for $2.90 per pair. Currently, there's an offer in SASA, the 2nd pair of Lassie'el Eye Refresh Aqua Gel Patch at only $1~ *heart pain* Thickness of the gel eye patch Another pic of the eye patch I find this gel eye patch hard to place on my eye area as it breaks into small pieces rather easily. You need to have delicate hands, not like mine. =.=|| Also, it slips down my eye every now and then, thus i need to readjust the eye patch every-oh-so-often. I gave up sitting upright to surf the net and just lie down on my bed to play

Review: Hotel Christiania Zermatt

June holiday is here! Many Singaporeans may wish to choose Europe as one of their holiday destination due to the favorable euro currency rate. It seemed that some of the tour packages also include Switzerland as a destination stop. I've been such tour with ASA 2 years ago and I believe that one of the highlight during the trip was Hotel Christiania in Zermatt.  To prevent air pollution, Zermatt is a car-free town and relies on electric shuttles for commutation purposes. I sat on one electric shuttle (their version of taxi) and it costed around 20 to 25 Swiss-frank. The distance is only from the main train station to the hotel. (walk-able distance) I bought too many chocolates including a 1kg Toblerone thus bo bian (no choice) I sat the shuttle. But, the old couple that sat with me was very kind to treat me the "taxi" ride. (we belonged to the same tour group. )   The walkable distance from train station to hotel The hotel w red flowers on the balcony!

What makes me start this blog?

Hi all! I've been wanting to share my rants and raves about products that I've used, places that I've been, food that I've eaten. However, being the lazy me, I've been putting off this plan til NOW. The final push is that I've finally purchase a groupon!  First ever groupon! I tried googling for reviews but to no avail. I've acne-prone back so I've been wanting to try out some kinda of back treatment to cure/improve my skin condition. The steps involved seemed promising. (*fingers cross*) Each back treatment includes: Cleansing Steaming Diamond Peel or Full Extraction High Frequency Blemish Treatment  Back and Shoulder Massage Purifying/Smoothing/Detoxifying Mask  (extracted from groupon web) Booked my appointment slot with Beyond Beauty on Wednessday! Will review and post relevant pictures.
