Party: Kiehl’s 165th Birthday Bash + Charity
Author: James Aw Yong It was a blast last Thursday celebrating Kiehl’s 165th birthday with the Kiehl’s family! Imagine knowing the handful of them since 8-9 years ago and we are still as close as ever. I remember the days where we do events together and not forgetting, the falling in and out of love together too. Such memories. It was certainly an honored to be invited back for their party, not as an influencer but as the pioneer batch of Kiehl’s Boys. Thank you for remembering us! Since my first day in Kiehl’s, I know that they are always involved in charitable campaigns. It is no exception this year.…

Review & Giveaway: Philips VisaPure Advance ($455)
Do you have any facial tools at home? I think most of us will own a facial brush but how about something more advance? However, a cleansing brush isn’t enough. Philips introduced a new line of Advanced Skincare Tools for women in Singapore! It is like bringing the entire salon home because you can do the same treatment at home. It will also save you some money in the long run because you can save on the traveling time/transport and money for the facial/ massage.

Review: Strip Underarm IPL for just $18!
Have you done IPL before? Was it painful? Will there be any downtime? What are the pros and cons of getting IPL underarm? These questions kept raging in my head when I decided to try out IPL underarm at STRIP. I decided to go ahead with it even though I was quite scared because I have long heard about Strip. Plus I find shaving a hassle and constant shaving can cause the skin to turn dark. Imagine wearing sleeveless top! The dark armpits can’t be hidden at all. I visited STRIP at Plaza Singapura #04-08A and the outlet was very welcoming and reminded me of the movie – The Grand…

Review: Is Eye Cream Essential? – SK-II R.N.A Power Eye Cream
Author: James Aw Yong I started my daily beauty regime inmy early 20s with cleanser and moisturizer ONLY. However, as I age, I realized that I need more products on my face to help me fight ageing. M always tell me how delicate the skin around the eyes are and wrinkles tend to appear there first. I had quite a few lines around my eyes area. They made me look so old that I had to go for Botox to hid them. If you don’t believe me, check out a picture of me and M below. Check out my wrinkles around my eyes and hers. Botox can be really expensive…

Review: For Beloved One Mandelic Acid Series
Author: James Aw Yong I have previously tried chemical peels at aesthetic clinics before. Other than wanting smooth skin, I was quite concerned with my acne scars as well. But me, being the typical Singaporean has to work on weekdays and juggle between blogging and rest on weekends do not really have the extra time to visit clinics for chemical peels so frequently. I was glad when I saw For Beloved One on the table. They have recently launched their new Mandelic Acid Series which contains a peel so gently that it is suitable for home use. Although the series is designed for Asian women’s skin types, I am still…

Smile Makers – The Frenchman
When I first met Smile Makers 2 years ago, I swear I thought it was some dental care because of it’s cute name!! I must say that I was quite naive back then. Either that, or they looked too cute and colorful to be a personal massage – or more often than not, people call them vibrators!! Haha. “Smile Makers’ mission is to make great products that promote healthy sex as a natural part of beauty care – helping women feel confident, sexy and happy, with or without a partner.” They also believe in “Beauty starts with a smile! Each design and color has a different function and name. Aren’t…
