Love More

Advertorial



So excited!!! Received a giant box of many masks from Love More. They are actually one of the best selling mask brands in Taiwan!

Their packaging are all very pretty with girly cute graphics!! Irresistable!

I love masks!! It's hard not to - put it on, go about doing your usual pottering around the house, then after removing the mask your skin will be super soft and thankful!!

Among the masks here are 2 of my favourites:

Love More New Zealand Kiwi Acnes All Out Set



As you can see it's a really "special" mask coz it comes in a set of 3!


It is specially for both women and men who have troubled acne skin in Singapore's hot and humid weather.

With the strong adhesive ability, acne can be removed completely, turning your skin smooth immediately.

After the removal of acne, the skin won't be dry but with moisture retained. Natural kiwi fruit extract prevents further proliferation of acne.

The kiwi extract removes dead skin cells too, causing fairer skin with smaller pores.



I'm gonna try it out!


Here's the steps:




Apply the softener on your desired skin area (for me, nose and area around nose. blackheads!) and give it a good massage for 2-3 mins. This opens up pores for easier acne/blackhead removal!

The softener feels just like water.




This is the fun part!

Apply the Purifying Mask all over your desired areas! The mask is very gooey and smells super nice, really like kiwi! It is white with little beads of green. :D


Wait for 10-15 minutes till the mask is dry, and remove the mask! If there is excess mask left, wash off with warm or cold water.



You can see some of the blackheads and whiteheads on the mask!




Lastly apply the Purifying Astringent Essence!

The consistency is kinda like a toner. This works to contract acne prone pores. Pores will become smaller and less noticeable! :D

Super QQ, clean and smooth skin


I love how the essence makes my skin feel EXTRA clean!!


******************************************


If you don't have acne and just want a mask to hydrate, lift, whiten or firm your skin, you can also try some of Love More's famous 3D masks!

What is a 3D mask?

It is just like your usual paper mask but it comes with ear hooks to lift and firm skin from your neck, cheeks, eyes and mouth areas - because neck care is just as important as face care!

There are many different masks to choose from depending on your desire.

I chose the Rose Crystal and Tourmeline Peptide Duo Lifting mask.

Coz I love rose-scented things and it's the prettiest lol!




See? Super cute packaging!! Haven't use already happy!




I love love love how there are not one but TWO pairs of ear hooks (meaning 4 in total) coz it makes the mask extra tight on my face!

And the neck portion is just ingenious!

While wearing the mask it is adviceable to massage your face a little too to let the awesomeness absorb more. :D

In case you are wondering why the box says "Scotland", it is because Love More uses imported ingredients "Sealed and Sent with Love" from respective countries. It's pretty fun trivia!

If you'd notice the mask also has a "Hives" pattern. This ensures the mask fits better on your skin and will not absorb the moisture from your skin when it is dry.



******************************



Can't decide which is the mask for you?

For April and May 2011, there are 2 special "suitcases" of a mixture of all of Love More's maskes!


The Love More Purple Series and The Love More Pink Series



Masks inside the pink series. 

I love love love the colours!


Masks inside the Purple Series




Both contain 7 masks in total and retails at only $9.90! 

AFFORDABLE OR WHAT??!

Of all these masks, these four are my favourite:




Love More maskes are available exclusively at selected Watsons stores. You can also visit www.secretive.sg for more product information!

Pizza Hut's 30th Anniversary

Advertorial


Woohoo!!! Was invited to Pizza Hut's 30th anniversary food tasting session where some bloggers and I had a first chance to try out their new menu which includes 25 new recipes!

(My first session with Pizza hut HERE)

6 new appertizers, 3 new pastas, 6 new Western favourites, 1 new baked rice, 2 new pizzas, 5 new beverages and 2 new desserts! So exciting.

I went there a very hungry girl and came out with my stomach almost exploding. Here are pics of some of my favourites:


Had an Emerald Sparkle which is just a creative name for my apple soda. Coz I was craving green apple that day! Refreshing and fizzy with little cubes of apple in it. :D


Stupid Huiwen snapped a pic of me as I was taking off my invisalign. LOL


After an unglam photo must post a pretty photo


We were all treated to the Pizza Hut staff dancing - then finally... FOOD!


Bruschetta with tomatoes and bruschetta with mushrooms

Crispy garlicky butter toast is the way to start!! 
Especially love the mushroom one. Definitely a more creative choice.


Gobbling coz I was SO hungry. But I was responsible enough to stop mid-bite for a picture.


Thick fries on dips, served with a grilled cheese sauce and a salsa!!

Fries might be common and boring but imho it is very difficult to get perfect fries!! These were piping hot and crispy, and I LOVEEEEEE the cheese sauce! Even asked for a second helping of it. It seemed like everyone loves the cheese - the other sauce was kinda neglected.


Hut's Platter - what can I say?

Fried food's always good. The sweet n' spicy drumlets are definitely the star though. Also included are criss-cut fries, calamari and tempura prawns. I love the prawns!  Great for sharing or if you like variety in your appetitzers.


Hot favourite! Cheesy mushrooms!

The mushrooms were super juicy and almost bursts in your mouth!
Combined with melty slightly burnt cheese. Awesome.





My favourite of the day has to be the Cheesy mussels... Succulent mussels hidden under a thick layer of cheese and the little extra touch of bacon. Gone within seconds!

I love how the shell is like a spoon so you can slurp up the rest of the juices/leftover cheese after eating the mussel itself.




Here's a pic of  "Lady" Iron Chef  (Brad) taking a pic of our next dish, the Hut's Chicken Steak.

Hate him and his $3,000++ sibeh pro camera putting my poor LX3 to shame!!!!!!! Don't like this lah everyone also blogger why you so professional!!

Don't believe me? Here's MY picture, taken with a $800 (2 years ago) camera:


It looks ok... Not terrible but meh...


















And here's Brad's... I WANNA RAPE THAT CHICKEN!! Ffffffffuuuu

Don't say it's skills ok!!!! Brad helped me take a picture with my camera and it also looks sucky so it's the equipment!!

I can't be bothered to describe the chicken coz that photo does all the selling.


Seafood fiesta baked rice

For cheese and tomato sauce lovers. It tastes kinda unique coz it's a little sweet with pineapples inside. Full of mussels, prawns and calamari!


Huiwen photobombing me

Finally a pizza!!!!!!!


Captain's Catch Pizza!

Super creative with potato chips on it!! This pizza has a generous amount of fried fish (like 炸鱼片) on it too. The sauce is kinda creamy and cheesy. Definitely something special unlike your usual pizzas!


Huiwen snapping a pic of me replenishing lip gloss. What? Must look good in photos what! Remember lipgloss cannot be photoshopped!


HERE COMES DESSERT!!!


Choco-Berry Banana Dessert Pizza!!

When we all ate this we thought it was just a biscuit under the fruits but it's real pizza!! Sprinkled with chocolate sauce, strawberries and bananas. I love those two fruits!!

So that concludes my blog entry... If you wanna try any of these, head out to any one of the 24 Pizza Hut outlets islandwide!

Hope I didn't make any of you too hungry!


Happy 30th birthday Pizza Hut!
