REVIEW: W.Lab K-beauty brand is finally in Singapore!
If you haven’t already know, W.Lab is finally available in Singapore!! It was originally founded in 2013 in Korean, but Thank you Aresa Singapore for bringing it in!

This benefits people who have sensitive skin a lot because they can’t use every single brand out there. I may not have sensitive skin but trust me, when I shop for my cosmetics…

For this post, I will share my personal experience of the installation process & the special features of my new instant water heater, AURES ROUND LUXURY RT33.

REVIEW: ORBIS Sunscreen On Face Sunscreen
I am someone who would go light anytime – be it my body weight or the make up I apply on my face 😛 If I can avoid putting on make up on weekends, I would. But one thing that I can’t ever miss or give up is sunscreen. Prevention is always better than cure.
