Vanity Trove

People who know me long enough should know that I love to try new skincare products.
Actually it's a disadvantage for me to buy the skincare products as I just wanna try'em out.
Most of them took me quite sometime to finish it & not all suits my skin.
*My current batch of products*


Had a chance to go to one of Vanity Trove's event and they introduced us a personalize service!
Meaning to say that you'll get to choose what you want in your own box rather than receiving a box with products that doesn't suit your skin.

All you have to do is fill up your beauty profile!
It'll take less than 5 minutes!


After you're done with your beauty profile,
you can start choosing the items you want!


They actually recommend products which matches your beauty profile.



Not to worry if you're not sure if the products suits you.
They do have reviews from others who has the same eg.skin type as you.

After you're done choosing your stuff, just cart out and wait for your box to arrive at your door step!

Mine took less than 4 days to reach me!
Efficient!!!



All in the right size!
I don't have to use them for months before I get to try a new product!
& if I think it's really good for me, I can actually purchase it at the actual size and not having to worry about whether the product suits me or not! :)

Cafes for Tea.

Guys' mindset: Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, Supper.
Ladies' mindset: Breakfast, Brunch, Lunch, Tea-time, Dinner.

Personally, I think that guys would never appreciate having a brunch / tea time.
Guys: Quantity > Quality
Ladies: Quantity < Quality

Gonna share with you guys 2 of the places that I went for Tea recently.
Price: Under $30 per pax

=================================================================

We had a impromptu tea session at Octa Hotel.

9 Raffles Boulevard, PARCO Marina Bay, 
#P1-39 039596 Singapore 

Don't think that it's in a hotel.
It's just the name of the Cafe, which is located at Millenia Walk.

They have different promotional set for different months.


Cappucino.


Cafe Mocha.


Definitely the ladies' would choose the tea set.


Whereas the guys would rather get this.


Instagram-ing.


Most Sundays we would gather at my aunt's place after church.
And this time my cousin, brother and I decided to crash one of the cafe which is just across the street of my aunt's place since alot of people has actually talked about it.

Selfish Gene Cafe
40 Craig Road singapore 089678 


We just wanted to try out the food and not wanting to be really full.
Therefore we did order a couple of things to share.

Ham & Cheese Sandwich


Carrot Cake


Long Black


Matcha Latte


Mocha


I think it's a good time to go over there around 3plus 4 as to avoid the brunch crowd.

Staycation @ Marriott

It's a great idea for girlfriends to have a staycation once in awhile if you can't go for a holiday together! :)


Room size: 32sqm
Standard size for all Deluxe Room at most of the hotels.
FYI, it's a smoke-free hotel.
So when you make your reservation at Marriott next time, do not ask for a smoking room.
There's none in that whole building.


Yay! Time to head to the pool!
The other time I came to stay, I didn't had a chance to go for a swim.
But I think the swimming pool is really beautiful!


Since it was going to rain, one of the staff directed us to the Hot & Cold Spa Pools which are strictly for the in-house guests.
She treated us like princesses by offering us get new towels, bathrobes, apples.
Making sure that we're really comfortable.


Feels so much like the Hot Springs in Taiwan!


Definitely we did enjoyed ourselves!
Princess for a Day!



After all the swimming and soaking ourselves in the pools, we're all famish for sure!
& we bought a hell lots of food back to the hotel for dinner!!!
Sushi, fried chickens, chips, drinks, alcohol.
We have it all! :)

Jezebel's 21st Birthday!!!

13 April 2013:

For the past few months before my sis actual birthday, her bf and I had secretly planned for her 21st birthday since she didn't had any intention to celebrate it as she thinks that it's just any other birthdays for her.
But for us, we didn't think that way.

My sis didn't want to have lots of people at the party (unlike me).
So we had to only invite her closest friends to her birthday.

Also, we did had a difficult time to thinking of where to hold this surprise for her.
Chalet, function room, etc.
Ended up we settled for Ritz Carlton since it's the hotel that she fell in love with since her previous staycation.

Upon reservation I put a note saying that's my sis's 21st birthday, and Ritz Carlton sent a complimentary birthday cake to the room wishing her a Happy Birthday!
What a sweet gesture! ❤ ❤ ❤


With the help of my mom, bro, mel & her bf we managed to decorate the room before she comes.
And it's also quite challenging to make sure that all her friends reach before she does.
Her bf and I had to coordinate discreetly without letting my sis know.

My sis loves balloons, so I filled the whole bathtub with the purple and white balloons!


Managed to record down the precious moment where she was being taken aback.
p/s: pardon me for those who doesn't understand mandarin.
My family members were the first batch of people whom she saw when she took down the blindfold.
She never expect us to hide all her friends inside the bathroom. Gotcha!
& definitely, Ritz Carlton has a HUMONGOUS bathroom!


I'm so thankful for all her friends who turned up for this surprise!
Their presence made this surprise even more memorable for her since they hardly meet up with each other!


I brought the tiara which I wore on my 21st birthday for her.
Every girl deserves to be the princess on her 21st right???


What's a birthday without presents???


It's was a night with rain, lightnings & thunders.


My mom and her sisters.


Quite a pity that my dad can't make it for my sis birthday as he was on course on that day.


A simple guestbook which I did.


We had another cake waiting for her.


I think her bf is super sweet to do all these for her!!!!
Unlike me, I had to plan and do everything by myself for 21st :(


She had to blow out the candles first as photo taking session always take a long time.



That's all for my baby sister's 21st!
Hope she had a really really good time!!! :)
