ZNIQUE Acne Serum Review
I have to admit that I do not always have acne but I do get them from time to time. And this time round, I had some growing around my chin area. I have tried different products to help me with the acnes but they always take a few days to totally go away. Recently, I was introduced to ZNIQUE Acne Serum, the first all-in-one acne serum from Swiss Expertise that is formulated with natural ingredients. You don’t have to wait for a few days to see results as the serum is clinically proven to reduce bacteria growth from as early as 2 hours! ZNIQUE Acne Serum contains no nasties…

Eucerin® Hyaluron-Filler Overnight Treatment – A non-invasive solution
Prevention is always better than cure. This is why I choose to start my anti-aging skincare regime while I’m in my twenties! While other consumers my age are exploring options like fillers and botox injections, I’m constantly on the lookout for skincare products that work just as well in giving me smooth and radiant skin. As I age, I find my skin getting thirstier despite applying skincare every day and night. I even tried masking frequently to see if it helps with the dehydration and dull complexion. While I do see improvements in my complexion, I have no idea which are the products that actually work well for me. Recently,…

Eyebrow Embroidery at LA VIDA
I used to say that I wouldn’t leave home without drawing eyeliners but as I grow up, I find that having nicely shaped brows is more important than having just the eyeliner on the face. Yes, eyeliner helps to brighten and open up our eyes but imagine yourself with bright eyes and hollow or short brows? Sounds creepy right? Even before I revealed anything, my followers have been asking me where did I get my brows done and if I have any discount quote. Yes, the answer is, recently, I went to LA VIDA™ for my eyebrow embroidery done and the treatment is called LA VIDA™ Deluxe Creative Brows Embroidery Service.…

TK TrichoKare Hair & Scalp Treatment + Trioxy Treatment Review
I started off the scalp treatment with a detailed consultation. It involves detailed history taking and really takes into account my dietary habits, sleep pattern and hormonal changes. After this my hair was analysed under a magnifying glass to check for any obvious thinning of hair. They also used a Tricho-scan camera which magnifies up to 200 times to analyse my scalp. It works as a visual proof of my scalp condition, according to which the treatment can be planned. Take a look at the 2 pictures at the top. True enough, my scalp showed redness and signs of inflammation. It is clearly shown and I got a shock when…

Situated in Wheelock Place, the new menu is specially curated by Executive Chef Mr Toshio Sawai, who had an illustrious culinary career beginning all the way back in Kitcho, one of the most luxurious and reputable Japanese restaurants in Japan, in 1983.

Sand & Sky Pink Clay – Flash Perfection Exfoliating Treatment / Porefining Face Mask Review
Clay beauty products always make my face feels extra clean and to be honest, I don’t use them very frequently because my skin is very dry itself and I don’t want the clay to dehydrate it further. I do love the idea of removing impurities from my skin once a month though. Recently, I realized that not all clay products are drying because I found one that really works for me – Sand & Sky Flash Perfection Exfoliating Treatment and the Australian Pink Clay Porefining Face Mask. Out of the many beauty products that I have tried these 2 months, these 2 win hands down! The products itself are as pink as how…

Coco & Eve Like a Virgin Hair Masque Review
The wedding is near and I just half a year ago, I went to bleach my hair twice. I have been going back to the salon for a monthly hair treatment to help tame the frizzy hair but once a month is not enough. Neither do I have the luxury of time to visit the salon once every 2 weeks as much as I want to. Honestly, I have been trying out a lot of hair products to keep my hair in place. I am also currently using hair oil EVERY single day and I must say that there are pros and cons for using hair oil because things can…

Chemical Peel? Milk Peel? Are they the same in Singapore?
I am always doing Dual Yellow Laser with Dr Celine Leong at Astique Clinic, Singapore but this time round, I gave something new a try – Milk Peel. I would call this a “Lunch Time Quick Fix” as the entire process took less than 30 minutes. Some of you may link Milk Peel & Chemical Peel together but they are not exactly the same. Even though I personally find that chemical peels & milk peels are more or less the same but Milk Peel is a lot more gentle on the skin and it is suitable for all skin type. Chemical peels on the other hand, is pretty selective. Some…
