Advertorial

Something exciting is happening! Toy Story Land is opening in Hong Kong Disneyland!! Now I want to go there again - I love the Toy Story movies so much!

The excitement has spread to Singapore and Bossini has collaborated with Disney to bring us super adorable Toy Story apparel. :D

The Cantonese dub for Jessie the cowgirl in the Hong Kong version of Toy Story, Joey Yung 容祖兒, is fronting the campaign.

Here are some of the clothes + awesome collectibles:


Alien hooded fleece shirt dress


I'm gonna spend my December in wintry Texas so this is just perfect! Love the silly alien details and the furry hood + cuffs. It's comfy and the cowboy theme is so cute!


Jessie felt print hoodie tunic

Jessie is one of my favourite characters in Toy Story! She's always so chipper and brave and loyal to her friends... Plus she and Spanish Buzz are just so adorable together! I like how the hood area is sort of special, makes it look like I'm wearing a cape.


The hot pink tunic (long enough as a dress for me) totally matches my Lotso huggin' bear (Bossini gave this to me as a pressie, it's not available for sale in their stores) and my pink hair!


And he smells like strawberries! ♥


Me wearing the Oversized Pullover with Muffler

A super unique piece! Only 20 are available for sale in Singapore. *feels special*


The pullover comes with a detachable muffler in the style of Jessie's trademark braid!! So cute it even comes with a giant ribbon. :D

Ready for Bed as Soon as Possible

Advertorial



This...

Is how my face usually looks like after I put makeup on (plus photoshop). Foundation, mascara, eyeliner, eyeshadow, falsies, eyelid sticker, lipstick and lipgloss. All the works!

I enjoy putting makeup on but the taking off is usually more troublesome. There is always a balance to strike - whatever makeup removal is thorough is probably also time-consuming and harsh on your skin or leaves it feeling oily!

If you are looking for a makeup remover more suited for you, here's something you can try:


Bifesta used to be called Cleansing Express, as many of you probably know as they are a very popular brand of makeup remover from Japan. It is actually Japan's no. 1 water based makeup remover series.

And yes, Bifesta ONLY sells makeup removers! Talk about specialized!



And here's all of their makeup removers in a row!! What's so special about them?

Bifesta is all about WATER!

Most people believe that water based makeup removers are less powerful than their oil-based counterparts, but oil based removers leave an uncomfortable residue and require an additional step of cleansing which strips moisture! The best of both worlds is of course a powerful water based makeup remover!

I've mostly being using oil removers. However, there are days which I feel my skin already feels very oily so water is a more suitable choice for those days!

And Bifesta is really gentle but powerful! Kaykay came over, saw my removers and told me that she has always been using Bifesta coz it is the "fastest" remover in the market. Minimum amount of wipes and she can get into bed after a tired, long day! No wonder their slogan is "Ready for bed as soon as possible"!

And I can personally vouch that the removers leave no sticky or oily residue, just a velvety feel. No need for washing your face with facial wash afterwards - if you really want to, just rinse with some water. :D

But the BEST part?



THERE IS A BIFESTA FOR EVERY SKIN TYPE!!





Each remover contains different ingredients so as to ensure the best skincare for you.

Moist: For dry skin - ceramide infused for moisturization.

Sebum: For oily skin - With green tea extract to tighten pores.

Bright Up: For dull skin - With saxifrage extract for skin brightening

Agecare: For more mature skin - with coenzyme Q10

I had a hard time choosing but in the end I decided Bright Up was my favourite as it can also remove dead skin cells and improve skin's luminosity!





Simple pumping onto a cotton pad



Hold it on your face for a bit and wipe off...



One easy swipe and my eye makeup gone!!

Another AMAZING thing about Bifesta?

Normally when you wipe once with a cotton pad the pad gets dirty and if you use that same pad to wipe another part of your face that face gets stained, right? But with their makeup remover, it simply doesn't happen! The remover catches on to the impurities, trapping them on the cotton pad so even with multiple wipes with the same pad you still get clean!

I even removed my false eyelashes without causing damage to my real or false lashes. You can even use Bifesta to clean off the residue glue on the lash band without misshaping your falsies coz its water-based and non-sticky.


Velvety clean :)


For ultra obstinate makeup, Bifesta also has a Eye Makeup Remover and it has super strong removal strength:



I've heard testimonials that this remover is super strong even on the most waterproof mascaras.



Remember to shake it before use! :D
Tested it on my most stubborn eyeliners and mascaras - it works very amazingly well.

And lastly if you wear lighter makeup, Bifesta also has an option for you!

Do you sometimes step into the shower after a day out and turned on the water only to remember you have not removed your makeup? It happened to me many times before, especially when I only have a bit of blusher or foundation on!

In that case it is best to have a bottle of Bifesta's Cleansing Liquid in the shower with you!



With one step you remove makeup and cleanse without stripping away your skin's moisture. :)

All Bifesta removers have plus-ion Hyaluronic acid and vitamins B and E to give to your skin.

Love Love More

Advertorial



I've got good news for girls who want to make their skin as soft and as luscious as can be!


Remember my previous advertorial for Love More?



Now they have sent me MORE awesome skincare products to try! Skincare junkies rejoice!

The Love More Aqua Moisturising Series:


These are all featured and recommended on popular Taiwanese beauty show 女人我最大!

As the name suggests, the uniqueness of the Love More Aqua Moisturizing Series is moisture, moisture, moisture!

The result? Flawless transparent skin + 100% moisturized skin + sebum balance.

Keeping skin moisturized is super important especially when a lot of us spend most of our day in the aircon!! When skin is dried out, you not only get wrinkles and age faster, your skin also turns oily which can lead to acne.




Step 1: Love More 24hr moisturizing Aqua Pump

Also known as the toner! (In picture, the tallest bottle)

Most toners in the market don't bother much with moisture level but the Aqua Pump does! The texture is watery and not drying like most other toners and with the extra moisturising effect, your subsequent skincare products can maximize their benefits.

And I love it because it smells so awesome, like fresh cold cucumber + lilies! :D

Plus the design comes in a pump, which is super convenient.



Step 2: Love More 24hr Moisturizing Aqua Serum


Here's the texture of the serum!!

The Aqua Serum comes with patented AQUAFILL and professional whitening compound with 3 times more concentration than the traditional essence. Even using a small amount can achieve long term retaining of moisture in the skin, and keep the innermost layer of the skin quenched with moisture!


Step 3: Love More Aqua Masks


Blue: Love More Aqua Cucumber Extract and Ceramide Moisturising Mask

Pink: Love More Aqua Damascus Rose and Arbutin Whitening Mask

I love both these masks!!!!!


Both the masks contain awesome ingredients.

The blue Moisturising Mask has cucumber extract, ceramide and oligomer, helping to do advanced moisturizing for your skin.

The pink Whitening Mask, which I LOVE because it smells like my favourite roses, contain Rose damascena flower, Alpha arbutin, camomilla recutita and Malachite Extract. I know most of those things sound foreign but they are all good!!

Helps to whiten skin, making it noticeably smoother and softer!

I don't know if you noticed from the picture but the special thing about these masks is how tightly they are sticking to my skin! Usually the material for masks is a little thicker and I feel they leave a distance between my skin and the mask but for the Aqua masks they are designed to fit perfectly with a special natural silk cotton.

It fits the skin tightly without leaving any space which means it is able to moisturize skin more effectively. :D When peeling out the mask I even accidentally tore it. It's super delicate!

After using the masks I really felt my skin become instantly baby soft, fairer, and brighter!

(Yes I'm putting the mask with makeup on. It's for DEMOSTRATIVE purposes ok!)

Step 4: Love More 24hr Moisturizing Aqua Brulee


Love this moisturiser!

Water based which means it isn't sticky and oily after application. Smells fantastic so you can climb into bed with your partner and know you smell awesome.

The Aqua Brulee is ultra moisturizing, providing moisture to all layers of the skin. If sleeping with the air con has dulled your skin, it's time to give this a try!

Besides the Aqua series they also gave me some other products and I love this:


Sexy Look Strawberry Black Head Pore Set!

If you recalled in my previous advert I had the kiwi version of this and now they came up with STRAWBERRY!!


Love, love, love this because not only do you get rid of blackheads, it is also super fun to peel off the mask... and the smell is just so... DELICIOUS!!!!!!!!

The whole time the mask is on your face so you just keep smelling the strawberries. How awesome!! Mike kissed me on the nose after I did the mask and I asked "What do I smell like?" He said, "Strawberries!! WHY?? Why do you smell like strawberries?"

LOL


And are you ready for cuteness??


A freaking HELLO KITTY MASK!!


Hot pink: Sexy Look Moisturising and Whitening Rose Mask

Baby pink: Sexy Look Hyaluronic Acid Whitening and Moisturising Mask

So cute right?? Perfect for traveling or sleepovers with girlfriends!


AND MORE!!!!!



CAN YOU SAY KAWAII??

And wait, these 3 Hello Kitty masks are special! They are 3D masks which means they have hooks for your ears! The end result is a mask super tight around your face and under your neck, giving a lifting effect.

White: Sexy Look Brightening and Firming White Rose Double Lifting Mask

SMELLS LIKE ROSES!!!

Purple: Sexy Look Moisturising Sensitive Amethyst Double Lifting Mask

SMELLS LIKE RED WINE AND GRAPE!!

Pink: Sexy Look Ultra Moisturizing Pink Sakura Double Lifting Mask

SMELLS LIKE SAKURA AND STRAWBERRIES!! *faints*

Why so cheap???

One thing Singaporeans love complaining about is that Singapore is BORING.

Well Singapore is actually not boring but loads of activities cost money and we are not known to be particularly generous when it comes to parting with our cash!!

And that's why if you are looking for some awesome fun that delivers more than what you paid for, you can check out Deal.com.sg!

Gotta love DEAL.com.sg coz they give such crazy good discounts!! I think I will never ever book holidays/facials/you-name-it-services any other way again.

One of the best things about the site is when you are surfing it, even if you don't spend any money, just looking at the deals gives you so many ideas on what you can do with your free time.

For example...


How about going on a first date at Sentosa with the birds, dolphins, butterflies and fishes? $35 very affordable leh can spend one whole day there!!


Or be kiasu and make sure your Halloween is going to be fantastic and way above others? (Geddit? Coz it's on the flyer?)


Bored moms can bring their kids to bake and decorate cupcakes... This looks so fun!


Bored of how your cat looks? Why not shave him into a lion?


LOL!!



Anyway from DEAL.com.sg I bought a deal for a spa treatment at Eden Spa with my mom.

Here's what my deal says:


87% off 100 Minutes Clarins Slimming and Contouring Treatment + HerbalDetox Footbath + Lymphatic Drainage Head and Face Detox Massage @ Eden Spa at Purvis. Only $48 instead of $360

$48 is so worth it!! :D


On the cab on the way there. Eden Spa is at Purvis street, super convenient.


Just being in the clean, relaxed atmosphere of the spa made me happy already!



All sorts of aromatic scents



Mummy and I


Momo happily choosing her preferred treatment. She gets to choose between:

  • Triplex BodySculpt: 3-in-1 therapy that uses slimming massage techniques on the waist, hip and thigh; Stress-relieving and pampering massage on the rest of the body.
  • Waist-Shaper + Hip and Thigh Lift Combi: Best selling intensive treatments that target the waist, tummy, hip and thigh; Releases excess fats, & reduces stubborn cellulite.
  • Swedish Destress Massage: Improves blood circulation, increase flexibility, reduces muscle tension and aches; Deeply relaxing and pampering experience.

I chose the Swedish destressing massage and she chose the waist-shaper!


And check this out:



Soooooooooo many Clarins products!

The reason why I like Eden Spa is because they are the first and only spa in Singapore to exclusively use Clarins products in their massages and therapies!

Clarins products are quite expensive so it's super worth the $48 especially when I got my body oiled in Clarins' natural plant goodness. :D


As promised my spa treatment started with a relaxing footbath. Had a fun time doing this next to my mom as we gossiped away. :)

After this was the actual massage which was fantastic although I have no pictures of it...

My favourite part of the massage was when I had the 20 minute Lymphatic Drainage Head and Face Detox Massage - OMG I LOVE HEAD MASSAGES!!

So freaking awesome!!


After the massage I took a nice shower at their pretty toilet.

So happy I could spend time with Momo and also treat her to something she really enjoyed. :D
