Chanel

Chanel CC Cream

Size: 30ml

Colour: 12 Beige Rose

Price: S$82

The CC cream has good coverage for me. But I feel that it is a slightly difficult to apply maybe due to it's thick texture. So we definitely have to moisturize properly before application. I like it's slight pinkish tone and mild peach fragrance. It is lightweight and gives radiance to the skin.

A completely original creation. A fusion of skincare and makeup. The double know-how of CHANEL Research and the Makeup Studio. Backed by true expertise regarding the precise needs of Asian women in terms of flawless skin.

With its CHANEL signature, CC Cream combines 5 actions in 1 single step:

SOOTHES. Cornflower water comforts sensitive skin.
MOISTURIZES. Hyaluronic acid helps maintain hydration level all day long by trapping and retaining moisture inside the skin.
PROTECTS. SPF 30 and PA+++ sun filters block aging-accelerating UVA-UVB rays. A mineral filter guarantees higher tolerance on the skin.
PREVENTS. An active ingredient of natural origin, Rejuvencia, provides the best shield against external aggressions.
EVENS OUT IMPERFECTIONS. Redness, dark spots and pores are visibly diminished.

Chanel Les Beiges

Healthy Glow Sheer Powder

Size: 12g

Colour: N10

Price: S$80

I also bought the powder to set the CC Cream. Chose the compact powder for convenience to touch up when I am outside.

LES BEIGES reveal the healthy glow of each woman and provide a sensation of lightness, well-being and freshness.

All year round, LES BEIGES compact powder gives your skin a fresh, healthy glow.
Each woman’s intuition guides the brush as it sweeps across the face to create a personalized healthy glow. Its two luminous and natural shades reveal a sheer, dazzling glow.

The fine, lightweight and antioxidant powder shields the skin from environmental stress and sunlight thanks to its SPF 15 / PA++ sun filter. Its ultra-protective formula, enriched with cotton flower and white rose plant cells, becomes one with the skin to soothe it better. It is gentle on all skin, even the most sensitive.

The Healthy Glow Sheer Powder also features the iconic CHANEL compact case, dressed for the first time in beige, the timeless and exclusive beige that Gabrielle Chanel loved so much. Its big mirror, with a larger inclination angle, and its half-moon powder brush made of natural bristles make application even easier.

Nature Walk

Just to share some photos taken during our nature walk last weekend along The Southern Ridges, Singapore.

It was a fun session of photography and exercise for me!

These photos are taken by me on my Nikon D7000.

18-200mm f/3.5-5.6G ED VR II

Lovely bright flowers. Never fail to make my day.

Saw this little bird having dinner, I think.

An ordinary leaf that reminds me of a maple leaf.

Don't know what creature is this but definately not a chameleon.

Couple bird! So sweet and dovey.

I searched on the internet, it is actually known as a Pink-necked Green Pigeon

(Treron vernans).

Cute cute cute...

Clinique - Even Better Clinical Dark Spot Corrector

Bought this spot corrector and hope it really works for me.

SA gave me lots of samples! Yeah!

50ml: S$143

Description:

Dermatologist-developed to be safe, comfortable. Yet in clinical trials our serum was comparable to a leading prescription ingredient in creating a more even skin tone. A verified 53% improvement in skin tone. For all ethnicities: See results starting in as little as 4 weeks. At 12 weeks, see a visible reduction in dark spots, age spots, and traces of acne past.

Gelish Manicure

I had my first and best manicure done last week by a sweet and paitient manicurist - Kim. Eventhough I have done gelish mani several times but I feel that this is the best as it is with nail art. What I have done before was only gradient / single colours or french.

Look at this! Nice Gelish Manicure with Nail Art.

The flowers are actually stickers pasted on the gel and also decorated with some crystals and gold glitters.

I had my previous gel mani soak off at S$15. Kim is using the genuine soak off solution instead of acetone or fake solution that is why some shops can offer free soak off services.

Total Price for this set of nails: S$80

(Price include soak-off and with 20% for first appointment)

The shop is located in a neighbourhood and run solely by Kim herself. Appointment must be made which means no crowd in the shop, so better quality and service. I feel that this shop is not over commercialized yet. I encountered some other popular manicurists who needs 1 month advance appointment and even deposit!

Gamila Secret - Cleansing Bar

Finally I have started to use this "soap" 2 days ago because I am having breakouts on my back. Hope my skin condition will improve after 28 days.

Gamila Secret is made from no less than fifteen fully active wild herbs, born in a base of shea butter and six pure plant oils, including first cold pressed olive oil. The process of controlled cooking, with ingredients being added at different moments to accomplish the best result, is the real secret.

I bought the Creamy Vanilla for normal/dry skin.

As our skin is made up of various layers, it takes 28 days to renew itself completely. So we need to use Gamila Secret every day for at least four to six weeks to build up a new, healthy skin.

Although this is the creamy vanilla, too bad it does not have much fragrance. It is also quite difficult to lather and is not very foamy. Skin feels a little tight after use but I will continue to use it and hope it has good results!
