I never learned how to drive (I know I just would have flunked anyway), but these days, I feel like I’ve also flunked in the driving of my whale-like body. I can’t seem to move past Gear 1 – in fact, it seems like I’m stuck in Neutral / Parking Gear. Alas~ my multiple travels … Continue reading

Review: Hanyul Skin Essential Emulsion
Back in my youth, I was wearing jeans (zomg, my heat tolerance and ability to squirm and writhe my way into those ridiculously-tight skinnies back then was amayzzing), a singlet and -gasp- minimal eyeliner with just two-way cake. My skincare regime was almost non-existent – I think I did some facial cleansing, slapped on some … Continue reading
Review: Za Essence Lotion
It’s been a while since I’ve tried any Za skincare products – I can still vividly remember the day I went for my first Za event back in 2007ish – holding a blue Za logo as I took the commemorative “guest-was-here” shots heh. Damn uncool. Anyways, after I attended my very first Za facial a … Continue reading
Review: Amore Pacific Hydrating Fluid
I seldom complain about my skin being dry, because like our local public transport during peak hours, it’s always packed full – of sebum, that it. Gross mental images aside, the recent heatwave has left my skin in tatters – literally, my lips cracked more than once despite chugging tonnes of water. To avoid having … Continue reading
Review: Clarins White Plus Brightening Hydrating Emulsion
I find myself splurging more on creams, serums, essences than toners and emulsions, to the point that -gasp- I actually do no have stand-by toners nor emulsions in my skincare troop inventory. Although it doesn’t make much difference if I were to mix brands, I just kinda prefer to use the same brands togetherly – … Continue reading
Review: Sulwhasoo Extra Refining Emulsion
This is yet another baby step in my (financially bankrupting) goal of owning every single item from Sulwhasoo by the end of 2012. I finally bought my first item from the Extra Refining (read: higher-end and more expensive) range – the Extra Refining Emulsion. I’ve also bought the Extra Refining Eye Cream for an exorbitant … Continue reading
The Grand 10,000!
Today shall be crowned as belly-beautibul-buns-day because it’s an awesome day -today my little weblog has reached the 10,000-hit mark (and without me advertising on facebook to my friends at all!) and within the 3-month mark too! 😀 Here’s my heartfelt thanks to all of you who made this possible. ♥ I shall commemorate today … Continue reading
Kiehl’s Clearly Corrective White Hydrating Moisture Emulsion
Long long ago, in a land before my vainpot times, there was a girl who didn’t believe in whitening. To her, that meant becoming unnaturally pale, like the ah lians of the JPG and Sonia Rykiel bags. It meant not having a healthy glow, which was totally the “it” thing back then. (Who’d have known that … Continue reading
Review: Sulwhasoo Balancing Emulsion
Honestly, I’ve never understood the need or usage of emulsion. In fact, the word emulsion conjures up images of Scotts emulsion -cue that annoying jingle from the advertisement – 衣服本来,刚刚好 怎么现在 扣不上? (为什么?) 桌子椅子,那么小 小房门也 钻不了 (味道好) 成长成长 我已成长 比比看 谁比谁高 司各脱民鱼肝油 陪伴我一起长大陪伴我一起长大 Ah ha. Now I’ve got you repeating that song in your head, haven’t … Continue reading
