Summer with #belif

Sponsored

Summer almost here and I am definitely HATING the sunny weather because I prefer to stay fair and cold.

I hate dark spots, freckles, harmful uv rays and whatever you can think of. I also think I am easily one of the few that has over 20 bottles of sunblock at home that I use concurrently because of the sun. It only take me 2-3 weeks to finish a bottle of sunblock!!

Being a sun-hater and a belief lover, how can I ever miss a Summer Retreat with belief?!

The event was held at Yoga Co. and yup, a yoga class was conducted for the beauty bloggers.







Sadly, my period came and I was having terrible cramps so I gave the yoga a missed but I took the opportunity to try out the different summer essentials belief has!!

Look at the circle plate in the middle? That is my ultimate favourite!! Other than being a sunblock in matte powder form, I actually use it as a touch up for my make up (to hide away the shine after an entire day.

Bet you guys didn’t now, it is advisable to apply sunblock every 4-6 hours once when you are out, and for the ladies, if you have make up on, it is impossible to remove everything when you are outside, so this Almighty Sun Power SPF 50+ PA+++ ($43) works best for us!

Texture: Matte and Light.

Almighty Sun Power SPF 50+ PA+++, UV Protector fresh sunscreen SPF50+ PA+++, UV Protector multi sunscreen SPF50+ PA++++, UV Protector Leports shaking sunscreen SPF 50+ PA+++

All of them are NOT oily or sticky at all. But first, let me start with my favourite other than the power. I like Leports shaking sunscreen ($54) because it is waterproof and it is suitable for people who do sports. Your sweat or rain can’t wash it away. It is enriched with antioxidants from Noni extract which prevents any form of skin irritation with anti-inflammatory benefits.





The differences between fresh sunscreen ($33) and multi sunscreen ($33) is that the multi sunscreen has whitening and makeup base effects. The non-tinted and tinted sunscreen. Both contains Molokhia extract that promotes skin healing while maintaining skin clarity.

Now now now…. Back to the first picture where you saw all the summer essentials at one glance. The Body Bombaaaaaaaa ($42)!!!

I LOVE THE EXOTIC ZESTY Lemon Verbena herb scent!! I was telling the trainer that my boyfriend would definitely steal this away from me. He is a huge huge huge fan of belif ever since his first bottle of aquabomb. The Comfrey Leaf extract helps to soothes your skin (body) concern while hydrating the skin at the same thing. Although it hydrates, but don’t be even think of applying it to the face. Your facial skin requires more than this! Heh. Take a small amount and massage it to your clean body after a warm shower or any time, any day.





Heh. Now I can conquer the sun without fears. Thank you #belif for being so thoughtful!!

You can find belif almost anywhere but I am more frequently seen in their stores at Wisma Atria #B1-64, Plaza Singapure, Jurong Point. Also, find them at Junction 8, Suntec City or even Tangs! 🙂

Biore UV Aqua Rich


Who says high SPF sunscreen equals to stick and thick or even clog the pores?

WHO? Biore is here to prove you wrong with their latest UV Aqua Rich with SPF50+!!

This is so cuteeeeeeeeee~

Biore sent over their latest UV Aqua Rich, a lemon and a glass bowl!

We know Singapore is an ultra sunny place to live in. 
Therefore, sunscreen is essential in order to have healthy skin to prove them from UV rays.

 

Like I said, high SPF doesn’t equivalent to sticky. 
One unique selling point for this is IT IS LIGHT and REFRESHING!

I am not kidding about the light. The texture is almost like having just pure water on your skin.

That’s why it’s called AQUA rich!!
 
1 little squeeze

 
Other than just sunscreen, it hydrates your skin as well as it contains hyaluronic acid and citrus extract.

OH! No wonder it came with a lemon! No wonder so refreshing! 😀

2 rubs and it’s almost gone. It would disappear by the third rub.

It feels like nothing on your skin. Just like how you wash your face with water.
(I have to emphasize this again!)

Zero stickiness, Zero greasiness.
100% light and refreshing.
The absorbability is totally fast. It disappears in just 3 rubs (for me).
 
This award winning sunscreen is the number 1 sunscreen in Japan since 2011.
It is also superior long lasting double UV block, so you don’t have to apply it a few times in a day.
 
Thank you Biore! I am ready to head out for some shopping or to the beach now~
The recommended selling price at selected hypermarkets, supermarkets 
and leading pharmacies is only at $18.90 for a 50ml bottle.

Surprisely, almost all the guests there that day gave thumbs up for those ready packed meals!

The most popular choices was the 3 below this picture. They taste nothing like instant packed meals.

The usuals, sandwiches, pizzas and rolls!

The sandwiches used to be my first choice when I am too busy for a proper meal.

Like a yummy right?!

Not sure if you’re impressed but I AM!! Fishball Mee Pok Dry leh! GOT FISHBALLS!!

I wanted to try quite a few, but I don’t have a huge stomach to contain all of them. Who has?!

My pick was the Macaroni & Cheese.

This was gooooooooooooood. If I could eat more, I would take another share.

Cheeseyyyyyy.

And the macaroni/ ham / sausage don’t even taste hard. Almost like a homecooked meal.

Profiteroles has a special taste. I was expecting it to be sweet but it has this tinge of bitterness among the sweet. Not really bitter. Just a little tinge.

Pretty unique one I would say.

HP ate this Buttered Chicken or Curry, I can’t remember the exact name.

But everyone who ate this were saying how good this was.

I think it’s so amazing for instant meals to be this good.

When I was over at UK, my friends and I bought instant meal to try but the rice was all hard and disappointing. But the one we had yesterday was nowhere disappointing. CROSS MY HEART.

Let’s get back to the Hello Kitty x tokidoki.

*starts screaming again*

This is the exact figurines that I was initially talking about.

Can you see the unicorn?!?! and the pink Ciao Ciao? Ciao Ciao is my favorite!!

Some are figurines while some are keychains.

Here! My favourite in the collection (I love all okay!).

But majority of my friends told me the cow is the cutest.
