I am sincerely sorry for the lack of updates and posts :( 

I have been away to............. CAMBODIA, Siem Reap and will be doing a post when pictures are up and running, meanwhile its back to school for me immediately and I have to catch up because I missed some lessons. It wont be much of a beauty and shopping post but I'd like to share my insights,how I felt about the people of Cambodia and my misconceptions, but Cambodia, also known as the Land of Smiling faces, touched my heart deeply.

 

till I write again, xoxo

Review of Sephora sun disk!

By Secret lovechild · October 21, 2009 · 8 Comments · 25 Views

Okay, when you walk into Sephora at ION orchard and pass by Sephora makeup counters, you look at the awesome range of products that they have, are you enticed to buy everything? I am. But, they look ordinary to me, nothing really special apart. Until I saw this,

 

Yes, it's a bronzer from Sephora, before I tell you why I had to buy it, I'll give a proper review of the product.

  • It has a very nice summery scent, like a summer blend of coconut and vanilla? Pina Colada anyone?
  • The colour will not show up well on darker skin but will look very good on pale skin
  • Even for pale skin, it does not tan your face but it gives you a healthy overall appearance or if you use a foundation that is too light, it will even out the colour.
  • Pigmentation is okay, not amazing but expected. But dont contour with it, just use it for colour

Price is affordable, about $29.90 with the amount of product you get.

 

The amount of product is what got to me. Check this out,

 

 

It is so huge no? Its supposedly for face and body. The mirror is huge too!  Haha, I know, I'm easily amused!

Bikini Waxing : Unstripped!

By Secret lovechild · October 20, 2009 · 5 Comments · 66 Views

Oh my god, after so long, I realised the reason why my stuffies on sale remained at the top was because I put it as a feature, no wonder! Silly me!

 

So, I'm here to give you the full dossier on bikini waxing!

 

My waxing was done in Wax In The City, located at Orchard Central. It has very nice ambience, dim lighting and the lady who did my wax was super di duper nice! Instead of being long-winded, I shall write everything in point form.

 

All about waxing:

  • The lady made me feel very comfortable, giving me precise instructions to clean the nether area and helping me up on the bedrest. After cleaning myself, I went on the bed and she proceeded to explain to me that the wax was made of basically fruit and beeswax, so there are no preservatives, everything is natural and won't irritate the nether region.
  • Then she explained that the wax was hot and it is supposed to be hot to numb your skin and open your pores for easy removal. Then she applied the wax on my skin and when it felt uncomfortable, she'd fan it to ease the heat.
  • At every interval, she will check to see if I can take it or I need a rest. I'm quite tolerant to pain so I didnt need any rest, the sooner the better.
  • No doubt, there is pain. But it is VERY BEARABLE not like those women you see on TV screaming their lives off. However, I feel it is less painful than tweezing your underpit hair and eyebrows. Because it is one swift motion, no tugging, no dragging.
  • After pulling out one strip, she'd press her palm on the area to reduce swelling and really, this action helped ALOT. Somehow, after you pull the hair out, the pores will react only after hair is pulled out.
  • After the entire thing which lasted only 15 minutes, she applied soothing lotion.
  • I checked my nether region after the whole thing and although there is redness, there isnt any bad after-effects, rash, itchy feelings whatsoever.
  • I am fuzz-free, super smooth like a baby's bottom.
  • Today is Day 2 after my wax and I am super pleased to say, I have no bad reaction from the wax!

Therefore, I highly recommend full bikini waxing if you really feel that pubic hair is irritating, like me.

I know that shaving is faster but it may cause ingrown, painful bumps on the skin and I never dare put a shaver near my lady garden. To each its own, but I hope I gave you a better idea of bikini waxing and I'd say that pain factor is 2/5

Weekend happenings!

By Secret lovechild · October 19, 2009 · 2 Comments · 14 Views

How was everybody's weekend?. I had a sick weekend, I woke up with swelling tonsils, not fun at all. On saturday, we went to the NIGHT SAFARI! And yes halloween night was on! It was super gory in my opinion. Instead of taking the normal train, we took the TRAIN OF TERROR, its a little different from the normal tram. First, it takes you to view all the animals within close range and yes, Singapore has the normal orange tigers! Its in the night safari, while the zoo exhibits white tigers.

So throughout, it was this witch's voice and her cackling laughter then when it comes to the forest giants trail, they changed the whole thing into Neverland, where all the 'ghosts' and 'ghouls' come out to hunt, suck blood, whatever not. I didnt take pictures, was to scared to take HAHA. So first was this man who banged on the barricade with his chopper then it was a scary adaptation of Beauty and the Beast, where the Beast would come up the tram and scream in your face "MY BEAUTY!", then Beauty was a lady in a white dress stained with blood, she would scream "HELP MEEEE!" and the Beast will drag her into her coffin. Yeah, there were alot of mannequins with heads chopped off, guts spilling around, being impaled, chopped in half, all sorts of murder, blood and guts. Then, there was the signature monster where he would shout and scream while holding a chopper, chopping a mermaid into pieces. And the mermaid would be alive, screaming for help while he chopped her, there were alot of mermaid corpses lying around, the mermaid looks very ugly too.

The it was random scary ghosts like a pontianak standing under a tree staring right at you, a bloodied snow white, a mummy who grabbed for me and I screamed and some wolf like creature who would come up to you and grab you.

Actually, the entrance already had some scary character like a girl stabbing a bear, a walking pontianak holding a head and staring dead at you with blood on her face, a street seller selling dimsum with a human head inside etc etc.

So that was night safari.

On sunday, I went for my FIRST BIKINI WAX, yes I had a full-on brazilian bikini wax, I am stripped of any pubic hair whatsoever. If any of you lovelies wanna try it, comment me and I will dedicate a full post to it. If I write it here, this post would be super long. I feel that you girls would wanna know the procedure or how the pain is like. I went in without knowing anything and wished someone would have described to me. So if you girls are interested to know everything about it before you go fir it, let me know.

Then while I was at Chong Pang having dinner, I passed by Aries and guessed what I saw?

 

ELF BLUSHES!

You know why there's so many? I got 2 at first, in 'shy' and 'innocence'  since they were priced at $6.90 with 20% off. Then, I really like the pigmentation of 'shy' so I told my guy, I wanna get more, in the end, while at the shop, I was super muddleheaded, I got 2 'innocence' instead and I kicked up a huge fuss not being able to get another 'shy' and wasting money on 'innocence' so this sweet boy drove out alone to get me one more 'shy'. HAHA. I told him there's no need to but he insisted. So I'm stuck with so many elf blushes! I dont know what to do with 2 extra 'innocence', if anyone wants them, comment me <3

Thats it girls!
