Sovil Titus watch - Bday gift from Tina and Aisha 

Tatcha moisturizer - SGD 98
Olaplex no 6 bond smoother - SGD 44
Tangle teezer hello kitty - SGD 35
Tarte amazonian clay powder (light) - SGD 53 

H&M sling bag - SGD 19.95

August was my birthday month and I made so many purchases. I've been eyeing for the LV pochette for quite some time. I've went to the LV store at Takashimaya and Ion with Claire but the LV sales associates said that they have stop bringing in this model. I was so disappointed but I found it off carousell and I immediately copped it at a good deal. As this bag is a vintage piece, the bag strap is attached to the zipper instead of the D-ring at the side of the bag. But nevertheless, I still love this piece. I have gotten a simple black bag from H&M for everyday use.

Few weeks back, Sephora was having a 20% sales for black and gold card members. I was roaming around Ion at that point of time and decided to get a new face moisturizer for myself but ended up getting much more than I needed. I love the Tatcha face moisturizer. Its watery but not oily on my skin. For the price point, it's bloody expensive. The olaplex bond smoother coupled it up with the cutesy hello kitty tangle teezer makes my hair soft and tame. I gotten myself a new face powder from Tarte because the milani matte face powder makes my face oily. I'm not sure if its because of the base products I used on my face or the Milani face powder is not suitable for my skin?

Thats all of my fave products of August and September! Till then..

August Hauls

Alexander Wang Prisma Bag 

Hello everyone! I wasn't sure what I should blog about today thus I decided to share with you ladies my August hauls instead. Since August is my birthday month, I've decided to splurge a little and get myself a new Alexander Wang prisma bag. I'm in love with this bag because there are 4 compartments to place my everyday stuffs in it. It can fit a small umbrella or a waterbottle in the middle compartment which is a bonus. Also, this bag matches with my Alexander Wang wallet because it belongs to the same prisma collection. I love the croc embossed design on the flap as it makes the bag look more classy and edgy. I spotted this bag on a fashion blogger instagram named Lian Galliard. I was on the hunt for it for ages and I've managed to cop it on Yoox website. There are many prisma bag in different sizes, luckily I copped the bigger size instead of the regular size.

Delsey Luggage exclusive to Macys

TSA lock and overload indicator

My second happy purchase for the month of August is a new Delsey luggage exclusive from Macys. The colour of this luggage is Black cherry. There is a story behind getting this new luggage for myself. On the last day of my trip from Thailand, my cousin picked us up from the hotel to send my family to the airport. As there wasn't enough space in the boot, he tied our luggage on the top of his car. However, due to the hotel carpark ceiling was low, it hit the water pipes thus my luggage was badly dented at the bottom. I only noticed how badly dented my luggage was during the check in of our flight, but I thought I could fix it with heat when I come back to SG. When I looked at the front view of my luggage, there was a big crack on the surface and small holes on some part of the luggage. I was worried that my items in the luggage would come off considering how bad the condition of my luggage was. I was so furious and upset on the trip back because it was my fave 29 inch marble luggage from Typo. I was browsing through Macys and I decided to get a 29 inch Delsey luggage because my dad owned one of the luggage for ages and I've read good reviews about it. I cant wait to use it on my next overseas trip!

For oily combination - SGD 60

Clarifying lotion no: 3 for oily skin - SGD 39

Since it was my birthday month, I've also splurged at Sephora. I decided to try out their Clinique moisturizer and toner because Tivya was raving about how good it was. I love how it makes my skin feels. Not only that, I gotten a free cosmetic pouch, 100mls Clinique cleanser and few samples of bubble mask and moisturizer. I've also stock up on sephora makeup remover, IT cosmetic mascara, sephora eyeliner and a tarte eyelash curler. That very day I spent about SGD190+ but I gotten so many free samples too. I told my babe about it and he was like dang, I didn know girls would spend so much on makeup and skincare. Hahaha. Time to save money as I spent so much during August. :p

April favourites

The month of April passed so fast and now its the beginning of May. I'm gonna share with you my April favourites. Last month I had a major pimple breakouts on my face because I was stressed a f with work and university assignments. I didn had sufficient amount of beauty sleep. So I popped by Sephora and asked the sales associate what kinda of facial mask should I get?

Mario Badescu - Cucumber tonic mask
Mario Badescu - Silver Powder
Origins - Matte moisturizer with willowherb

I was looking for a suitable face moisturizer as I have an oily and dry skin combination. Oily on the T-zone and dry patches on the side of my face depending on how humid the weather is in SG. I didn know there is such thing as a matte moisturizer for our face?! After using it for a month, I'm in love with it. My face stayed matte for at least 6-8 hrs with no makeup on. The origins moisturizer cost SGD 63. Its kinda of pricey but it works wonder for me. Mario Badescu products are well known for eradicating acne skin issues. The silver powder helps to unclog pores and minimise blackheads. I used it last night and I felt like my face went for a good detox. The silver powder cost SGD 27 which I think is quite reasonable. For the cucumber tonic mask, it helps to moisturise and brighten my dull skin. It cost SGD 30. After using all these products for a month, my face condition is so much better that I dont really use foundation when I go out. Sephora is having sales online and in-store now. So do check it out! 

Ryo scalp deep cleansing shampoo and conditioner

I dyed my hair too many times that my hair texture is dry and frizzy. I chanced upon this korean brand shampoo on Qoo10 and I decided to try it. When you apply the shampoo on your hair, there is a cooling menthol effect. After using it for a month plus, my hair look so much healthier.

No sebum powder

I've stopped using my Too-faced (Born this way) foundation for my daily makeup. Instead, I used this herb green no sebum powder. It makes my face stay matte for at least 5 hrs. The texture is light and it makes my skin feels fresh.

Alright, that is all for my April favourites. Gonna have my lunch now and start editing my research proposal. Thankful for no work this weekend. I really need a break. ):

Thankfully, I bumped into my aunt in town so we went shopping together. She bought me a dress from missselfridge. It's the last piece and it is in my size. Thought of wearing the dress for D&D next year.

Anyway, I met up with Claire for dinner in town last Friday night. I appreciate the fact that she cancelled her class to accompany me because I was bored and needed to run some errands. Met up with Matthew for drinks at Ann Siang Hill. Man, it was such a wonderful night chilling with some booze and catching up with our lives. We shall have more nights like this. (:

Shopping - 16/11/2013

$10 

$45

After work yesterday, I called Yuting out for last minute shopping. Most importantly to get my maid her birthday gift. So during break time, I bought a birthday card from Takashimaya. Then head to Sephora to get a nail buffer set. Rajes introduced to me the Sephora nail buffer set and I'm totally in love with it despite it's costly. But it can last for the long run and I'm like why not? Head down to Orchard centrepoint and gotten a Body Shop amazonian wild lily gift set (body lotion+eau de toilette) for my maid. Instantly within 3 hours of shopping, I'm a member for The Body Shop & Sephora. Hahah. Before heading home, I told Yuting that we should window shop at Forever21. But we ended up splurging over clothes that we cant resist. Right now, my back is aching like madness. I haven start on my research critique which is due this Thursday. Oh I should stop procrastinating..
