A rosy affair at Escentials

maybeline

As you can see from my previous posts, Valentine’s is coming!!

For the girls, if you are sick of receiving rose because they die easily, why not hint for something made from roses instead?

For the guys, oh come on, be creative! You don’t really have to give stalks and stalks of roses on that day!

You can hop on to Escentials because they have a lot of products that are roses related. You will be so spoilt for choices!

My favourite out of the entire roses collection was from Diptyque! Eau Plurielle & Rosafolia – Rosafolia is limited edition so while stocks last.

Eau Plurielle is the first multi use fragrance from Diptque where you can use it on the skin or fabric. The scent smells like fresh linen that has long been laid on a bed of ivy and Turkish roses (200ml, $130).

The candle – Rosfolia (190g, $110) is gracefully diffused at the heart of Turkish rose absolute and sharpened by the vitality from a hint of geranium. The pretty cup/glass can be reused for other forms of decorations once it runs out of wax.

The scented Oval ($76) on the bottom left can be hung in a wardrobe. It releases the aromas of French Garden for months.

There are also a lot of fragrances for the scent of rose.

And cosmetics……

Or even body wash, lotions or hand wash!!

Tadahhhh! Haven’t I just given you more tips for Valentine’s?

Escentials is located at Paragon #03-02/05 or at Tangs Orchard Level 1 🙂

Personalised High Quality Hand Painted Oil Canvas Painting Portraits

After a long tiring day at work, I was surprised by the arrival of this oil painting from PaintMeReal.com. It brought a smile to my face cause this is how I look in cartoon! Cute yo?!

FYI, this is hand painted and not printed from any printer. I opted for an A3 sized self portrait which cost USD$99.

This is the original picture of me that was sent to them. Quite similar but the oil painting is cuter no?!

Instead of getting expensive perfumes, watches, bags or flowers for your partner, why not try something different this year?  It is unique, interesting and more importantly, meaningful. Picture speaks a thousand words, moreover, a hand painted one.

Look closely and you will realized that it is not drawn on any paper but a canvas. It doesn’t tear nor get dirty easily.

HINT HINT: Christmas is here soon!!!
