August Favourites - Facial Mists, Shampoos and Hair Vitamins

Monday, August 09, 2021


August is always a month of abundance. In Asian culture, the number 8 is associated with luck and infinity, the latter of which suggests wholeness and prosperity. In today's post, I'm sharing some of my non-sponsored August beauty products - an all-purpose facial mist, a scalp-purifying shampoo and a long-lasting, oil-based perfume. Come on in!

Friday, July 02, 2021

 


This is part 2 in my series on weight-loss solutions without exercise. The first post did pretty well, and if you're looking for moderate dieting advice, please click on the link to check out a simple short-term diet you can do to lose weight (you can lose up to 3kg in a week!), and some of the science behind weight-loss. This post, however, will compare some of the non-invasive slimming techniques that you can use to slim yourself down without heavy dieting or exercise. These are some of the treatments that weight-loss salons, like Bella Marie France or Cheryl W, use for slimming on their clients. I've been to a few of these just to check them out. I was sceptical, like most of my readers, until I actually tried them... (Yes, the beauty junkie in me has tried all 5 of these treatments over the years...) Come on in to find out more!

Friday, February 26, 2021

 


I wanted to do a Feb 2021 beauty favorites post, and show the products that I finished using late last year. Eversoft is a Malaysian-brand of Japanese and Korean-formulated skincare that is sold in pharmacies in Singapore. I chanced upon it last year and now can't rave enough about it. In fact, I have finished 3 of their cleansers and 2 jars of their moisturizer/sunscreen products...

Quote I Love

“To love. To be loved. To never forget your own insignificance. To never get used to the unspeakable violence and the vulgar disparity of life around you. To seek joy in the saddest places. To pursue beauty to its lair. To never simplify what is complicated or complicate what is simple. To respect strength, never power. Above all, to watch. To try and understand. To never look away. And never, never to forget.”
