Hey all!

Sorry for the filler photo :X

Anyway, I went to Turf City for dinner with my friends last night.
It's been about quite a few years since I've been there which I think that was when I was really little.

So the place had really changed a lot and much better now with all the weird/unique/whatever shops there and the interior design looks like a mini universal studio. Haha

Anyway, we had seafood for dinner!
It was a Japanese restaurant where they had live lobsters, crabs and all placed like a wet market (an atas, air-conditioned one). Hahaha

Here's what we ordered!
\
Some sushis~

\
Flying fish! The chef said it was a different grade of salmon.
We had this fish chopped up and the portion was kind of little~

This is really really nice and fresh but too little for us! ):

Mixture of seafood.
There's clams, prawns, oysters and the long bamboo looking which I can't remember the name.
The oysters are the nicest, second would be the bamboo looking clam?

There was no rice, noodles and all ): 
Felt kind of cheated because it was quite expensive but the food are really fresh. ^-^


I shall end this post with another two filler photos of Pudding!
She's a batster~ Part-time batwoman! Haha

Hamkey! Part-time monkey~
She had a toilet sand stuck on her nose. Hahaha

Bye~!

Hey all!


Had been busy with work lately, getting tired and all.

Anyway, I'm back with another product review for the Mentholatum Deep Moist lip balm.
Lip balm are really useful for everyone, especially people like me who have really dry lips. I always apply lots of it before bed to prevent my lips from cracking. Anyway lip balm are so small and compact that there is no excuse not to bring one.

Mentholatum Deep Moist lip balm now comes with a new packaging.

From my past experience, I've been using Mentholatum's lip balm for quite some time now and usually they are kind of liquidy, like it gives an oily/shiny look which I don't really like it.

This product looks like a glue stick. Ha-ha
Anyway it looks kind of good with the new packaging.

Back to the review, I've tried this lip balm and I would say it is really moisturizing and at the same time it gives a matte finish which I really like it and it's suitable for guys and girls too. The lip balm kinds of stays there for quite some time as well so it's good that I do not have to re-apply it often (:

I think lip balm is a MUST product for everyone especially for people who stay in-door with the air conditioner turned on, it can get really dry sometimes. As for me, I have really dry lips so every night I would apply quite a bit of it before going to bed or else I might get dry and cracked lips. ):

Mentholatum Deep Moist lip balm is definitely a must try product! Do let me know how you find it after using this.

Peace~ /< ^-^

Hey all!

Getting tired of your bored tangled, untamed curls? Try the DYNA Argan Oil Treatment!
DYNA Treatment uses Argan Oil which helps to prevent your hair from getting damaged by all the chemical and heat products.

Recently I've got tired of waking up early everyday to style my hair and after a month, my hair is really really horrible and tangled :\
Not looking good isn't it?

The good thing about DYNA Argan Oil Treatment is that it gives you naturally straight hair where you can still style your hair as usual by curling unlike the traditional rebonding.

Oh, first I got my roots touched up and tone down my hair color by a little.

After dyeing my hair, Jerry then proceed with the DYNA treatment.
It comes with 3 steps which includes treatment, straightening and back to treatment again.

Jerry did not apply the treatment on the top part of my hair as my hair will be very flat after it's straightened.

Here's a photo after the first treatment. Jerry only applied it for about 15 minutes?
My hair is almost straight even before he used the straightener.

After straightening, it was treatment again.
.
.
.
.
So... Here's the end product!
Tadaaaa!
I asked Jerry to curl the ends for me to spice up the look a little (:

 
Here's a before and after comparison!
See the BIG difference?

Here's the front view!
I really love this new look of mine because my hair is so much healthier now!
It feels really smooth and has a healthy shine to it. *\(^-^)/*
 Oh and it's tangled-free too!

Here's another photo of me and my hair in case you've missed me :P

Get naturally straight with DYNA Argan Oil Treatment!
Look for Jerry Chua to get this look (:

Hello all!

Some of you would say that I have nice skin or my skin is flawless but actually if you are my friend, you would know that actually my skin can be really bad sometimes with very bad breakouts and sometimes it might look almost flawless but it's covered with makeup.
In pictures, I might look flawless but it's all fake! Because it's not taken by DSLR or super clear cameras that can capture these little details and I don't use flash too. You will believe it after reading below!

Anyway, I was invited by a lady from Cellnique to try out their facial treatment and today I'll be doing a review on it!



Cellnique is originally from Malaysia and they had 3 branches in Singapore that carries the product, which one of the branches (Eros Beauty) is located near my place. Yay ^-^/
It's quite convenient for me because I wouldn't have to take very long to travel to the place and back home with my ugly face after extraction. :P

When I reached the place, I was greeted by two ladies who were at the counter. 

One of the lady guided me to the consultation room and examinec my skin condition.
She told me that I had combination skin where my T-zone is more towards the oily skin with huge pores like most Singaporeans because of the hot weather in Singapore.
For me, I'm more concerned with my clogged pores because I've really bad CLOGED PORES! Like bumpy nose that can be seen by naked eyes and the black/whiteheads are really deep into my skin which those really deep ones can't be removed by extraction.

After examining my skin, she recommended me to do a Skin Renewal Treatment because my skin looks a little dull and this treatment will brighten my skin by stimulating cell renewal and also reduce my sebum production to even it out.

I was then guided to the next room for my facial treatment.
The place is relatively small but the ambience is not that bad, with calming music. Quite comfortable for me.

Oh and before I start, here's a before image of my skin after removing my makeup.
No editing was done on my face!
  
With and without flash!
As you can see, I do have some acne breakout and some freckle-looking dots which is actually scars from my acne breakout previous. You can see most of them on my forehead.

First, I did a 3-in-1 mask which uses fruit enzymes with small beads for exfoliation of dead skin cells and also whitening of my skin. When the mask was being applied, I felt some prickling sensation on my face which they said it was normal. One of the masks has a very pungent smell too! Me-no-like!

After the mask, Jasmine did extraction to remove my black/whiteheads on my nose and some of the problem areas. I would say it didn't hurt that much except for a few areas that are more sensitive but the pain is still bearable.

Lastly, I did this mask above which I think it smells like charcoal and rice. 

Here's the after image of my skin!
  
With and without flash!
You can see my face is a little red because of the extractions.

If you compare the picture (without flash), I would say my face does look a little brighter and not as dull.
Personally, I think that the beautician did a great job in removing my black/whiteheads especially on my nose. After the treatment, my skin felt really soft and smooth. The exfoliation and the mask does help to brighten my face and it's not as dull as before. However, I do not feel any whitening effect on my skin, o
Overall I would say that I am quite satisfied with the treatment because my skin is really super smooth now! Like baby skin (:

Besides that, the staff are really friendly and experienced from what I see because I keep asking them questions about my skin, this and that and they answered it with confidence. Hahaha thumbs up! (:

One of them actually introduced me to use the Skin Action Sebum Gel that has a 10-day money-back guarantee which I bought it to try to see if the black/whiteheads clogging my pores will be totally cleared up because they are really stubborn and deep in my pore! ):
I might do a separate review on it!

Hey!

In case you guys missed me, here's an old photo of me :)
Looking fair! I think this was about 2 years back?

But now I'm not as fair as I was ):
The weather had been torturous for the past few months and I've been getting tanner and tanner.

I was recently sent a new NIVEA Body Whitening Serum to try out.
I've applied for about 2 weeks and now it's time to do a review! Yay ^-^/*

Here's how it looks like.

NIVEA Body Whitening Serum has SPF 25 PA ++ and is the first body whitening serum with sunscreen.
As you know sunscreen protects your skin from the harmful UV rays and prevents your skin from getting sun burnt. 

This body serum has a very thin and light texture which is suitable for day use.
It is not thick at all and applies onto my skin easily but I use quite a bit of this product even though it's 200ml.

I don't use it during the day because I don't really like the feeling of having something on my skin. I know it's bad but I feel that if I perspire, I would feel very uncomfortable and therefore I only use this at night to try out.
Good thing that this product is not sticky but it does take some time to be fully absorbed to my skin.

After trying for two weeks, I would say that I've gotten a few shades lighter because my watch tan line is not as obvious as last time. I don't like to get a tan so this is definitely a good product to whiten my skin because I always get unwanted ugly tans like the tee shirt's sleeve tan line or short's tan line. 

I think it is especially important to apply some sunscreen before heading out because the weather really suck these days so this product comes in really handy for me. Thumbs up (:
