Today, I'm gonna blog about my April favourites ranging from my new Prada tote bag to beauty products that I'm in love with. First of all, I bought my Prada tote bag from Reebonz. Its a pre-loved bag but its in pristine condition. I had about 250 credits in my account and it would expire in July if I'm not gonna utilise it. Reebonz is having a mother's day sale thus the bag was reduced by 20%. So I gotten the bag at a reasonable price. The only flaw the bag have is that it has a pen mark on the inner compartment of the pocket. Otherwise, I cant tell that the previous owner really use the bag, considering its a 2015 model. Hyung also said that the bag reminds him of Christian Louboutin because the inner compartment of the bag is red while the outer layer is black. Onto my beauty products, I've tried out the body shop seaweed toner. The scent of it smells like fresh water which I really like. It suits people with oily skin type. I swatched the wet&wild lipstick on my hand before buying it, but it doesnt look good on my lips sadly. Also, it get rubbed off easily when I take a drink. Among the essence products I bought, I love the clear brow gel and mascara. The mascara was highly recommended by Tivya so I decided to try it out. It cost less than $10 and it works well as compared to Too-faced mascara. Catrice nail polish are affordable and long lasting too. Tried and tested when I'm using my paw patrol sanitizer at work everyday. My colleague Juliana introduced me this Tarte H2O moisturizer. I love the texture of it. It's a gel based moisturizer which does not make my face oily. It is quite pricey, but I bought it during sephora sale. As compared to my clinique moisturizer, I prefer tarte over it. Thankfully it is public holiday today, I could run my errands and pack my clothes in the wardrobe. Ciao! 

I have been putting Gen Neo's music on replay while I'm doing my law assignment. His music is so good but he is so underrated. Just found out that he is a singaporean and he used to study in Berklee college of music. That explains why I liked his music genre.

Farewell meetup with Jo

With Jo

Finally the weekend is here! I can get to chill awhile before I start on my next assignment which is law. I'm so glad that 2 out of 3 assignments are done for this month. Also, I totally nailed my solo presentation. I did not expect to get a distinction. Woots ~ Met up with Jo last evening before he heads off to UK next month to work. Felt so sad as if I lose an older brother. ): But all in all, one have to keep striving for the best and the good memories are well remembered. (:

Final lap of Uni

 

 

Sake time with Claire

 

 

It's the final lap of my university life. I can't wait to graduate. I left with 4 more months of school. I was busy the whole day trying to reorganize my wardrobe and lecture notes. I really need a planner to remind myself about all the assignments that are due for submission mainly in April. Argh. Got my nails painted to cover up the stained hair dye from each hair wash. I've thought of touching up my hair again as the green colour on the crown of my head is fading off. /: In the meantime, I shall read up on my law notes. Till then.. Ciao.

Blue & Green hair

With Tivya - Previous hair colour

2 tubs of La Riche Directions

2 packs of bleaching powder and developer

Current hair - Green on the top, blue on the bottom.

Hey yall, I've changed my previous hair colour to this blueish greenish hair. It took me about 4 hrs to achieve this hair colour. With the help of my aunt, she applied the bleach on my hair and I leave it on for 20 mins. The instructions stated was to leave the bleach on my hair for 45-55 mins but my hair was turning orangey blonde quite fast so I washed it off. Blow dried my hair and I mixed 1 tub of midnight blue and half tub of apple green into a mixing bowl. Left it on for 45 mins and I rinsed it off. Blow dried my hair and applied Diane argan oil for a finishing touch. I was trying to achieve a dark blue greenish hair colour. But it turned out that the crown of my head is green and the bottom is dark blue. Somehow or rather, the mixing went wrong. I should have buy alpine green instead of green apple. Nevertheless, I still love the colour of my hair. The inner layer of the back of my hair is black as I do not have enough dye to cover it. Hehe. All of my dyeing products are bought from Shopee. I will link it below.

Different types of hair removal products

Today, I would be sharing with you ladies the different types of hair removal products that are available in the market. Ranging from IPL, epilator, hair removal cream, waxing and shaving..

Intense pulsed light (IPL)

IPL uses a broad-spectrum light which transfer heat energy to the hair which causes the follicle to be damage. Treatment wise can be relatively long depending on how much hair you have on your body and pricing would definitely be more expensive. I ever went for an IPL consultation before as I want to remove my upper and lower limbs hair. However, the treatment plan offered was very expensive as my hair is naturally thick and long so my treatment would be much longer as compared to others. In the end, I opted for other hair removal options as I was young and broke at that time.  

Epilator

I bought this Braun epilator since I was 17 years old at Courts for SGD69. Recently, the head of the epilator was cracked. So my bf gotten me a new one for replacement. I really like this epilator because it has an additional head piece which helps epilating to be more gentle and less painful. I only used this epilator for my leg hair. I only epilate my leg hair once every week, as the new hair grows really slowly and less coarse as compared to shaving. Just imagine it as a device with lots of tweezers which help to pluck the hairs. Epilator is my favourite hair removal product as for now! 

Hair removal cream

The only brand of hair removal cream that I've tried is Veet. Its available at any pharmacy and its relatively affordable too. Application wise is very easy to use. However, what it does is that the chemical in the cream will burn the hair on the surface of the leg. Unlike the epilator, it doesn't remove the hair beneath the skin. Which is why after using the hair removal cream, some of us might feel itchy or might see redness on some parts of our legs/arms. The redness will go away within a day or two (depending on individual). For me, I don't really like to use the hair removal cream, because it does not remove all my leg hair entirely. But I did used it for maybe about 5 times when I was 16 yrs old? It's within my budget back then, so yeah. 

Waxing

I've tried out Veet waxing strips before, it worked well. However, it is bloody painful especially when you have long leg hair like me. The after effect of seeing how clean your legs are and the hairs being stuck onto the waxing strips, its so therapeutic. It can be messy if you do it by yourself, so I usually go to the beauty salon near my place to do waxing. It will get less painful if you wax more often. 

Shaving

Before I got to know any other types of hair removal products when I was still young, my go to option was shaving. So I used this Gilette venus hair razor to shave my leg hair. However, I will always need to shave after 3/4 days as the hair grows really fast and thick. It becomes a routine and it is so difficult to maintain. Sometimes, I might have some bumps and cuts on my legs which is quite annoying. Girls being girls, we just want to look good. Aint it? 

Alright, these are all the different types of hair removal products that I have tried till now. So choose one option that would suit you the best! :D

Philips leg epilator - Gift from my boo

YSL cardholder - Gift from bro

Hello yall! Today I'm gonna share with you what I gotten for Christmas and the recent hauls that I've bought. For Christmas, I received a YSL cardholder from my brother. I have been wanting this for ages. Maybe I should write a review about it on my next blog post? I asked my boo to get me a new epilator for xmas because the head of my old epilator cracked. Last month, my clique and I went to JB. Both crystal and I bought the same spectacles. Totally loving it. Not only it is affordable, the spectacles design are made from Korea. Recently, I'm in love with any item that has a tweed design on it. Also, I decided to try out gelish nails for the first time. Hopefully it would last till CNY.
