Qi Matra Facial by J
Note: James wrote this post because he did the facial. And thank you for offering to help out! You guys will probably see more posts (reviews) that are written by him from now onwards! 🙂 ——————————————————————————————————— I have never done facial in my whole life, so I know nuts about facial. Upon knowing this, my loving girlfriend decided to give me my virgin facial treatment at Qi Mantra. She told me that I would be doing the Miracle Facial ($350) and she wouldn’t stop raving about it because they will be using Miracle (stem) cells for the facial. The cells are derived from Soy photo placenta extract which is rich in protein…

The Royal Mail
This isn’t my first trip to the royal mail but the last round was to the restaurant. This round, we went upclose and personal with the bar side! Best part is they are introducing new specialty cocktail and British-inspired tapas to its menu! Apart from the food, we were well-entertained by the interactive duet. In fact, they tried to drag couple of us to sing together with them. This pic just scream Bliss! Enjoying one of the their two signature drinks: Timeless English & old fashioned spice. J’s favorite was the latter as he has quite a few glass of it before i convinced him to try something else. See! The result…

From Colours to Brown Hair again
I am a very safe person. I believe anyone can tell from my pictures. My hair is always black or different shades of brown. But everyone in the blogosphere is trying all the “weird” colors on the hair so I was quite tempted to try it too. I wanted pink and purple. Then I wanted turquoise and purple. I was very fickle minded because I couldn’t make up my mind at all. But that wasn’t my worry. My worry was about the bleaching part. I have never bleached my hair before and I don’t want it to break. I read about how blogger’s hair break after countless of bleaching. I…

Plastic Surgery
Plastic surgery used to be a taboo but it is so commonly seen nowadays. Even celebrities are doing it openly. I feel that plastic surgery is not just a physical thing. Yes, it can create physical changes but it also changes the self-esteem and boosts the self confidence of an individual. This work especially for the women. I hate to agree but good looking people are always at the advantage when it comes to contests, getting recognized or interviews. They tend to get noticed first. So, plastic surgery could change your life drastically in a way. Read more about it here: http://money.usnews.com/money/careers/articles/2008/05/12/why-people-are-investing-in-better-looks

Makeup Challenge for J!
This is my FIRST ever Vlog and I have no idea how to even do basic video editing so forgive me if you feel that it is not well done. The next one would definitely be better! The first thing everyone told me when you see me is “Aiyoooo. James and you damn sweet can”. Okay, we are quite sweet. HAHAHAHA. To make it even sweeter, J did my makeup for me in the video below!! It was his first time and gosh, he’s a natural! I did not allow him to practice before that but he don’t even need a take two for any step. Either he’s too smart…

Go Hairless with DPL
Sometimes some shoot requires us to have fair skin or flawless limbs because no one wants to look ugly or flawed in photos. I have an issue with hairs, especially underarm and uneven skin tone on the legs. I used to shave/pluck or visit beauty parlours for underarm waxing but I realized that overtime, they only darken the armpit and I knew this can’t be the solution to it. Darken armpits also reduces my confidence of wearing sleeves clothes. When I visited Dr. Tan at Halley Medical Aesthetics for my smile line fillers, I had the opportunity to chit chat with one of the therapists while waiting for my turn.…

Momiji Collagen Hotpot Buffet
Holy Holy ladies! Whoever is crazy over collagen have got to visit Momiji as……. Momiji Shabu Shabu is now introducing Singapore’s first and ONLY collagen hotpot buffet!! I don’t think I need to elaborate on the benefits of collagen. Tell me, who doesn’t know that collagen is good for the skin?! The soup base is made of collagen pudding – the culmination of 6 hours of simmering kampong chicken. The taste was a little bland at first but this is due to different preferences. You can top it up with Himalayan Pink Salt yourself if you like it saltier. Ladies would generally prefer it to be bland while the guys…

Color Run 2014 with J
To be honest, this is my first ever marathon and I really gotta thank Crowd and New Balance for this!! I think I just had the best Saturday for 2014 (who knows if a better one might come along later, but for now, this is one of the most interesting one!!)! I was really happy when I received the email invitation to the run and on top of the tickets, New Balance also sponsored my partner and me a set of running gears from head to toe (NB top, bottom, headband, wristband, socks, bandana & shoes). I got the exclusive (not for sale) all-white New Balance Fresh Foam 980 Color…

Sync – Korean Fushion Bistro
Everyone in Singapore, especially the Gen Y is soooooo crazy about the trends in Korea including its food. Hence, we visited Sync, a new korean fusion restaurant that synchronized Korean Western Fusion food, drinks, technology and lifestyle just for us. The bistro is powered by Samsung so do not be shocked to expect seeing Samsung devices everywhere. For example, placing your order via Samsung devices.. *does this remind you of Timbre’s ipad concept of ordering food* They even have little corners for you to chillax while waiting for food. And kid’s corner too! Drinks: They have a hugh variety of drinks even for the alcoholic like J. So he can’t help but plunge…
