Pairings: Little Black Dress

Hey lovelies! So, as we all know, every girl needs an LBD: Little Black Dress. Today, I'm gonna show you how I take a simple little black dress from casual to classy.

So, say you're going for a movie, or a day out with your friends, and you want a casual and cute outfit. Here, you can see that I paired this dress with a varsity jacket to give it more of a casual, relaxed feel. For a pop of colour and fun, I added red converse high tops to pair with this outfit; who said you couldn't pair dresses with sneakers? Then, to finish off the outfit, I added a red and black SnapBack to bring out the red shoes. Now no one said you had to match your lip color to your outfit, but I wanted to further bring out the red in the outfit as the statement colour by choosing a red lipstick. Of course, I don't wear lipstick out so I'd personally go with a tinted lip balm, like the REVLON lip butters for example, which I'm obsessed with haha.

Ok, so, you've had a fun day out with your friends, and now you're going to a formal dinner at a nice restaurant with your family , or you just have a formal occasion to attend. In this case, we're going for a more sophisticated and chic look, so I switched the jacket for this blazer, which has a nude pink peeking out of the sleeves. I wanted to bring that out in the shoes by pairing it with nude heels with a pink undertone. As for accessories, I personally didn't want too go overboard, so I went for a simple yet elegant silver bib necklace which finishes off the outfit.

So, the little black dress is a definite essential in every girl's closet and there are so many ways to wear it :) That's all for today, hope you guys enjoyed this post, love you all xx

THE SHOPPING TAG

Hey guys! So recently I've been having a bit of a mental block in terms of blogging... Every time I try to get a post up, I just end up staring at my screen not knowing what to blog about, really so I thought I'd do a tag in the meantime. So sometimes I'd think to myself "If I had to pick one place to shop for the rest of my life where would it be?" Being a shopaholic, it was really hard for me and took me quite some time to think and decide on just one place, so I thought it'd be fun to share with you guys where I'd shop for certain things if I had to pick one place for the rest of my life hahah. 

1. If you had to choose only one place to buy all your clothes for the rest of your life, where would it be?

A: I would have to say Forever 21. I do really like new look and TOPSHOP and H&M too, but I feel like Forever 21 has a lot of really cute clothes - and accessories - and it's not too expensive , so I ended up picking Forever 21! 

2. If you had to choose one place to buy all your shoes for the rest of your life, where would it be? 

A: Omg this is a really hard question because I really love shoes and different brands have different styles that all are so gorgeous....but I think I'm gonna have to say Steve Madden as they do have absolutely gorgeous shoes for both casual and more special occasions, plus the quality is amazing, so that's why I chose Steve Madden.

3. If you had to pick one place to buy all your bags for the rest of your life, where would it be?

A: Well honestly, right now I'm still in school so the bag I use the most is my Adidas backpack, and when I go out, I usually only bring my iPhone, wallet and headphones, so I rarely ever carry a bag out as it can get troublesome sometimes, but I'm assuming since the question says for the rest of your life, that I'd be carrying a purse when I'm older, so I'm going to say Tory Burch because I really like their handbags, and knowing me, I'd probably just go for a nude/neutral bag and Tory Burch has really nice ones :P

4. What is your favourite kind of accessory? 

A: Ok, so I love accessories, don't get me wrong, but a lot of the time, I feel so lazy to wear accessories like bracelets and rings cos I feel like they get in my way when I'm trying to move around a lot, being my active, energetic self hahah, so I would say I don't wear accessories very often, but I love wearing a nice watch cos it doesn't "move around" my wrist as much. That's probably also why I'm in love with the Michael Kors watches as they're just absolutely gorgeous, especially the rose gold ones *-*

5. What's on your shopping wish list right now? 

A: Oooh I have quite a few things on my list...

1. Michael Kors Rose Gold Watch 

2. Tory Burch flats 

3. Mustache sweater from Forever 21

4. REVLON lip butter in Berry Smoothie

5. Burgundy skinnies

6. Fossil wallet 

6. Are you an impulsive buyer? 

A: I would say it depends... normally, if I see something I really like, I try not to buy it immediately cos sometimes by the time I get home, I don't even want it anymore. BUT. My absolute weakness is sales. If  see something I like, and it's on sale, or it's just really cheap, I will buy it immediately. Sometimes I regret it after I get it, but most of the time I'm happy I got it. Besides, I wouldn't call it being impulsive, I'm just spontaneous ;) hahaha <inside joke Izni if you're reading this LOL> 

7. Have you ever bought something impulsively and regretted it soooo badly? 

A: OMG yes, I have. Once, I was on a trip to KL with my friends, and we were at this place where they were selling iPhone covers and it was extremely cheap, so being me, I impulsively bought two iPhone cases that I thought were cute at the time, but after I bought them, I started to see all the defects the covers had and I absolutely hated them like I was just so upset that I'd impulsively bought it and hadn't thought it through. So yeah hahah.

8. Are you good at saving money?

A: Heh, sadly, nope hahahha. Being a shopaholic, when I have money....I go shopping xD I know, it's bad, but I just can't help myself guys! I love shopping so much I find grocery shopping exciting O.o Only me? hahah so yeah, I'm not good at saving :P

Alright guys, that's the end of the tag, I tag all of you to do it, please comment below if you've done it so I can see your tag!  But specifically, I tag:

1. Sam

2. Ashley

3. Sophia

That's all for today, hope all of you have a great day ahead of you, also, Happy Birthday to my friend Vanessa! Thanks for reading, love you guys xx

Review: St Ives Apricot Scrub!

Hey guys! So i know i haven't blogged in a really REALLY REALLY long time and I'm sooooo sorry. I've just been having exams and preparing for exams for the past few months and so I didn't have much time to blog :( buuuuut now that my exams are over, I'M BACK! Hahah okay enough blabbering.

So today, I wanted to do a review for you guys. So recently, thanks to exam stress, my skin hasn't exactly been at it's best - not that I'm breaking out really badly or anything, it just wasn't 100% clear like it normally is. And being me, I freak out when I get one pimple so I was like OMG I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING. So I was watching Rachel or CheckInTheMirror on Youtube (she's amazing you guys should totally check her out and subscribe to her x) and she happened to be doing a skin care video. Now, Rachel has amazing clear skin so she recommended the St. Ives Apricot Scrub in her video. Honestly, I've been wanting to try out St. Ives scrubs for a really long time; I just somehow never got around to getting it. But, when I saw it in the store on the way home with my friend Sam, I was like "Okay I'm gonna get this and see how I like it."

I literally got home and immediately went to try it and can i just say, it's absolutely AMAZING. I know that some people say it's a little too harsh for them, but I really love exfoliating my skin and personally I think it's not too rough. Basically, it's supposed to help clear blemishes and blackheads. I don't really have blemishes and I've honestly never had a blackhead so I can't tell you guys if it does do that, BUT it really cleans all the dirt and oil without drying out your skin. In fact, my skin feels sooo sooo soft after I use this and I literally look forward to the days I get to use it, which is every other day (You're supposed to use it 4-5 times a week). I feel like it has helped my skin feel really nice and refreshed and I definitely recommend it, it's about $8 at drugstores so that's not too bad :) If you have acne, this also helps to treat the acne because it has Salicylic Acid in it so while you scrub, the Salicylic Acid will help to treat your acne so you'll have much clearer skin! xx

By the way, my skin care routine has changed slightly so I might do an updated one, however I am still trying out many new cleansers and skin care products so when I do finalize it I'll let you guys know. That's all for now, keep checking back for more posts, and maybe a tag ;) Thanks for reading guys I'll see you soon xx

Sports Day 2012!!

Hey lovelies! So I've been cray busy lately with school work and things like that cos exams are coming - well you get the point. So I didn't want to leave my blog to rot either lol so I'll just be blogging from my iPhone :)

So yesterday was actually Sports Day! I have to say I did have lots of fun obviously haha and I wore my hot pink running shoes cos I'm in Rose so I thought ehh why not? ;P Rose ended up winning Champion in the D division (I think) and 3rd for cheerleading so yay! Haha anyway I just thought if share some photos with you guys :) enjoy and thanks for reading my blog as always, I love you all, see you soon!! -does dramatic wave- haha xx

As Long As You Love Me ~

Side note: this was supposed to go up a few days ago but I forgot to lol but whatever ~

OH MY BIEBER. So if you don't already know, yesterday at 8pm, the music video/short film for the ALAYLM video premiered yesterday!!! If you follow me on twitter, you would've have seen how excited I was lol.

Seriously though, the video was do flawless I was shaking and hyperventilating watching it. I'm not even joking, I couldn't breathe. I was like "what is air" LOL the video was so flawless and Justin was just so hot and aaaaahhhhh <3

Also, the girl in the ALAYLM video is officially the luckiest girl on the planet. Firstly, if you watched the video, DID YOU SEE WHAT SHE GOT TO DO?!?! And she freaking got paid to do it!!! Secondly, because Beliebers are pretty much better than the FBI, we found out that Chanel (that's her name lol) actually also got to act in 21 Jump Street. WITH CHANNING freaking TATUM. She basically got to work with two of the hottest guys on the planet UGH I can't even describe how jealous I am.

Also, she looks like Jessica Alba = she's super pretty haha. I remember when Justin had his conference in Singapore when he was asked "who actress would you want to work with in a movie?" he said "Jessica Alba". So he probably also chose her cos she looks like Jessica hahha.

Anyhoo just wanted to tell you guys to go watch it if you haven't already, here's like link:

http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=R4em3LKQCAQ

P.s. I also blogged this on my iPhone so if the format's not the way it usually is, now you know why ;) haha

Cellairis by Justin Bieber?!?!?!

Hey guys! OMG so I actually found this out last week, but I totally forgot to share it with you guys. Justin is partnering with Cellairis and he's coming out with his own official iPhone cover line. And the covers are perf tbh aaaahhh I want them so bad :(

Seriously Justin has so many things coming out this year I'm gonna go broke haha. But anyway just thought I'd share that with any beliebers out there...then again if you were a Belieber you would already know about it... Haha whatever just enjoy how perf the cases are, I'll insert a photo below :)

P.s. sorry if the layout is a little weird I'm blogging from my iPhone so I'm not sure how it'll turn out haha :P

Dreamcatchers, procrastination and singing vlogs?

Hey guys! So I thought I'd do a quick post cos I'm bored and...yeah this is what I do when I'm bored ._. So I can't believe I forgot to show you guys this but ENYA GOT ME A DREAMCATCHER!

Yay haha for some reason I feel like I'd never buy myself a dreamcatcher but I've always wanted one so when Enya told me she got me a hot pink one I was like 8D I'm actually blogging on my iPhone so I'll just insert the photo at the bottom of this post I guess.

So the next thing I wanted to talk about is procrastination. Recently,
I've been procrastinating. A lot. And I hate it, but I can't help myself, which frustrates me a lot. I'm always on my phone when I have tons of other things to do ._. Sometimes I feel like throwing my phone away but obviously I can't cos I'd die. I should bribe myself to not procrastinate haha. Speaking of which, in actually procrastinating right now as I'm blogging -.-

The last thing- I've been thinking about uploading singing vlogs cos I love singing and can't pass a day without singing (I've tried), so what do you guys think? I mayyyy do it, and if I end up doing it, I want you guys to tweet me @curethebiebfver or comment below if you have any song requests :>

But yeah I gotta go finish my work now so I'll see you guys soon! Bye! x

June Favourites! YAY:D

Hey guys! So it is now July which means it's time for my June favourites! :D So I didn't actually go overseas during the holidays, unless you count the one day trip to Malaysia with my friends for a school trip. However, if you have been reading my blog, you would know that I stayed over at my aunt's place for two weeks which was really fun cos I got to hang out with my cousins a lot :) We had movie marathons, midnight ice cream making, the baby food challenge, we went to the beach and loads of other fun stuff which was super fun! 

Okay before I start blabbing, let's start with my June Favourites! 

This month, I don't have as much to share with you guys cos I didn't shop that much really but the first favourite/favourites of the month are my Herbal Essence Long Term Relationship shampoo and conditioner. If you know me or you read my blog, you would know that I recently got a hair cut. While I wasn't exactly super ecstatic about having MUCH shorter hair, I decided to change my whole haircare routine, hoping that my hair would grow back faster if I took better care of it. 

So I went to the drugstore and picked up these two products cos I've heard lots of good things about Herbal Essence. Don't ask me why, but I've always stuck to Sunsilk and never really branched out to try other stuff. So I've now been using the conditioner and shampoo for a month and I'M IN LOVE with it. It just smells so good and makes my hair feel so soft :> PLUS SAMANTHA SAID MY HAIR HAS BEEN GROWING REALLY FAST SO YAY! 

Okay so next product. So a really long time ago, I did a review on the BEDHEAD Ego Boost leave-in conditioner. If you haven't read it yet here's a link to that HERE . Now, don't get me wrong, I love that product, but compared to my next favourite, which is the Schwarzkopf GLISS Hair Repair Color Shine and Protect Express Repair Conditioner for coloured or highlighted hair. PHEW THAT WAS A MOUTHFUL. I don't have highlighted or coloured hair, my hair is au naturale BUT I found that I liked this one better than the other one which is for normal hair. Seriously guys? This is like the best thing ever :{D If my hair is looking crazy/frizzy/justnotnice , I literally just spray this in my hair, brush through it and within a minute my hair looks so shiny and nice it's not even funny. It's like a lifesaver for bad hair days.I'll be doing a hair care routine soon so I'm not gonna elaborate that much on this but you guys can get it at drugstores for $11.90 :) DEF more worth it than the BEDHEAD one which cost like $30. 

Okay so I finished my The Body Shop soaps and as much as I'd love to buy more, I have so many other soaps that I just decided to use up the ones I already have. I happened to reach for my Yves Rocher body gel which was from Paris and OH MY GOD GUYS IT'S AMAZING. I use it with my loofa and it lathers up so well and it feels so soft it's crazy. I'm like halfway through it but I'm not rationing it cos once I finish this one I can use my Sephora one TEEHEE :> But yeah I'm not sure if this is available in Singapore, but I definitely recommend it ;D

So it's pretty obvious I'm a Belieber, And unless you live under a rock you should know that Justin's new album Believe is out :'D Seriously guys, the album is just so amazing it's crazy. So obviously I had to get the album which I did, after hyperventilating in front of the HMV store haha. All the songs are amazing, he's just so flawless <3 So if you haven't bought the album GO BUY IT cos the songs are awesome and worth the money :) 

My next favourite would be the DIVERGENT TRILOGY. So basically Elle Fowler aka AllThatGlitters21 does glitteratures on her second channel which are book reviews. I don't know what it is, but she makes me want to buy all the books she reviews cos they're all SO GOOD. So I finished reading Divergent during the holidays and it is just seriously phenomenal. I started reading the book at 3pm and finished it at 2am that very same day. Take away about 4 hours (cos i eat and shower and I had tuition._.) and you get 7 hours. God knows how I finished that book so quickly, cos it's super thick, but it's just too good to put down! I already bought the sequel and I can't wait to read it! 


                                        


My last favourite of the month has been the Passion Tea Lemonade from Starbucks! Some people don't like cos it's quite sour but hey, it is lemonade after all ;) It just tastes so good :D actually I've just been drinking a lot of Starbucks lately haha my wallet's filled with Starbucks receipts so YAY FOR STARBUCKS :D


                                                                                 





I guess that's all for my favourites this month! I'm thinking of putting up vlogs, which is what I originally planned to do when I first started this blog, but it just takes forever to edit and upload so we'll see ;{D Right, that's all for now, follow my blog for updates when I post. I'll see you guys soon BYE! x

New Haircut?

Hey guys! So here's a lesson I learned a few days ago:

DON'T try out new salons unless they're well-known

Okay so basically a few days back I wanted to trim my hair and thin it-again (my hair is naturally super thick so I have to constantly thin it). I normally go to this salon which I've been going to since I was a kid, but I thought I'd try some place new.

I absolutely regret my decision ._.

Firstly, I'm pretty sure the guy had NO IDEA what I was saying, he kept speaking in Mandarin and I'm like oh my God. He starts to cut my hair and i'm like, crap why does it look so weird????

But I didn't stop him and continued reading my magazine. So a few minutes later he's like "ok I'm done". I look up and I'm like "HOLY GUACAMOLE WHAT HAS HE DONE!"

My hair was super uneven and choppy, he had trimmed waaaay more than the 1-inch I requested, my bangs were a mess and I was just.... Appalled. I didn't even know what to say!

Honestly, I started tearing at the salon and after like 10 minutes of trying to explain why i was unhappy with the haircut, I gave up, paid for it and went home.

I lived with the retarded hair for one day and I couldn't take it. I got my wallet and went to the salon I've been going to since I was a kid and decided I'd try and fix my hair.

After i told my usual hairdresser what had happened, he got to work fixing my hair and I was totally relieved cos I actually trusted him with the scissors lol. When he was done, I was like OHMYGOSH IT LOOKS SO MUCH BETTER, albeit a little short, I still liked it.

I actually quite like it now, though I just say I feel less girly, hence I've been using little bow-looking denim clips like in the photo, just to make me feel girly hahah. I honestly still miss my long hair, but I shall embrace the change :{P

So below is a photo of my current haircut, I just blow-dried it to give it the shape I wanted and yeah :)

That's all for today, thanks Sam for requesting this post haha :) I love you all and I'll see you soon! Xx

Yeah its cos I was like catching up on Pretty Little Liars which I was totally behind on, but don't worry now I'm on the same page as everyone else ;{D So I was so sucked into it I totally neglected everything else including Instagram which is crazy cos I never do that O:

So i just sat in front of my laptop giggling and squealing like a retard cos I was so excited, and I mainly saw Izni (my friend - HEY IZNI IF YOU'RE READING THIS) and I tweeting #BieberTo Singapore lol we were spamming :P

Yeah so THEN GUESS WHAT HAPPENED.

And one last thing before I go. Those fake Beliebers who left Justin cos of stupid things like him getting a girlfriend, cutting his hair or leaving him for One Direction - I'M LOOKING  AT ALL YOU RECYCLED BELIEBERS OUT THERE- don't you dare come back and be like "OMG I LOVED JUSTIN ALL ALONG HE'S SO HOT AND AMAZING"

Sleepover Day 3: Sick :(

Hi everyone! I know I promised some people I'd have the baby food challenge up by tonight, but I haven't been feeling so well since last night.

I started puking since yesterday, and I thought I'd be okay by today, but today I found that everything I ate and drank would be puked back out so I haven't really been in the mood to do anything. So sorry, I'll try to get the video up ASAP. And now I have a fever, and I'm still not done puking the stupid Qoo drink I drank just now so I gotta go ._.

I guess that's all for today D}: bye guys xx

Blindfold Makeup Challenge!

Hi everyone! So this morning I actually went to my best friend Megan's house, and we did the Blindfold Makeup Challenge! The challenge was A LOT of fun to do, and its actually really hard to put makeup on someone when you're blindfolded lol. 

As promised, I filmed us doing the challenge, so I apologize in advance cos there's a lot of laughing in this video, and if you know me, when I'm really happy and I laugh, my voice gets super high-pitched and this retarded laugh comes out lol.

Nevertheless, do watch it! Oh and if you're wondering why I was dragging Megan's leg in the first part of the video, its cos she didn't want to do the challenge cos she was afraid lol. So yeah I hope this video put a smile on your face today ;{D ENJOY!

Okay so that's all for today, I want all of you to do this challenge, it's super fun trust me! I'm gonna do the Blindfold Baby Food Challenge tonight, so I may blog about it, and I'll try to film it if my cousins don't mind haha. Anyway that's all for today, BYE GUYS!!! xxx

Sleepover Day 1!

Hey! I was actually planning to do a beauty/fashion related post today, but thanks to me forgetting to pack my laptop charger in my bag, my laptop died ._. So I thought I'd just do a random blog post instead since I'm trying to keep up with the whole blogging everyday in June thing aka BEDJ (pronounced bedge lol). I don't know if I'll actually be able to do it but you never know till you try ;)

So anyway, for the next two weeks I'm gonna be sleeping over at my cousin's house cos its the holidays and my cousins are fun to be around so yeah haha. Sleepover day 1 started with me French braiding my hair like bubz do I can wake up to cool looking waves like her ;{D and watching Never Say Never of course. It's my favourite movie in the entire world so I forced everyone to watch it with me ;)

Plus, my cousins may not admit it, but I could tell they were impressed with Justin's multi-talents :))) So its currently 10:09 PM and Nina and I are planning to stay up till 2 so we may be doing the blindfold makeup challenge later or just raid the kitchen later for a midnight snack :{D

I'm currently trying to stop Nima from falling asleep cos she's getting sleepy ._. Anyway I'll see you guys tomorrow!!! I'm planning to do the Baby Food Challenge with my cousins Baary and Nina tomorrow so check my blog tmr for that :{D

That's all for today, and comment below to tell me what you do during sleepovers/girls' night! I love you all thanks for reading my blog good night!!! Xxx

Baby Mona can walk now!!!

Hi everyone! So for awhile now, my baby sister, Mona, who just turned 1 about a month ago, has been trying to learn how to walk. She'd get tired sometimes and she'd give up, but yesterday she got a new walker. You know, one of those things babies use to learn to walk lol.

So anyway, I was playing with her - and I still am while I'm blogging on my iPhone - and I was like "HEY LET'S LET HER PRACTICE WALKING!" Ok so Joan and Maryam got the walker and I got Mona to stand up.

So she slowly starts walking, then she gets super excited when she finds thg se can walk, and her face lights up and she starts going even faster. So like everyone in the family starts cheering for her and she gets more and more excited and I swear it's so adorable haha.

I wish I could upload the footage I got of it, but I won't cos

1. I can't cos I'm blogging from my phone

2. My voice sounded super high-pitched in the video lol cos I got excited too

So yeah just thought I'd share some baby sister joy lol. That's all for today, thanks for reading my blog and I love you all and GOODBYE xx

May Favourites!

Hey everyone! So it is now June which means it's time for my May favourites!!! So I have a few items that I have been loving in May so let's get into it!

Alright so my first favourite for the month of May has been the Maybelline Baby Lips lip balm. I actually discovered this product last year and for some reason it was out in Singapore before it became popular in the United States (usually it's the other way). I used to be like a HUGE lipbalm-aholic lol, so when I saw that Maybelline came out with the Baby Lips, I immediately bought it. So far, I had gone through two tubes of this lip balm and the one I have with me now is my third one. 

After I got this lip balm and finished it I started buying and using other lip balms like the EOS (which tbh, isn't that great to me) and I forgot how much I loved this lip balm. So recently I went out and got a new tube of this and I remembered why i loved it so much in the first place. It's just soooo moisturising and for some reason gives this kind of nude-ish tint to my lips which I think is gorgeous. So far, I have yet to find a more moisturising lip balm that is this cheap (I got it for $5.90). However, I have been eyeing the Burt's Bees lip balm and the Rosebud Salve lip balm sold at Sephora so I might just get it. I'll be sure to tell you guys what I think about them if I do end up getting them though. 

Overall, I LOVE LOVE LOVE this lip balm and definitely recommend it to you guys if you don't have it already :)

So i don't actually have my favourites in order of like what.... genre/category they're in I guess you could call it? But uhm yeah haha so it's pretty much in random order :{P Anyhoo, the next thing I have in my favourites are these adorable ballet flat-looking bedroom slippers. I cannot describe how much I love these, they're just so soft and snuggly and fuzzy and they keep me warm in my room/house when the air-conditioner is on. However, my grandma got me these so I can't tell you where they're from cos i honestly have no idea where she got them      >< But yeah, I've been wearing these like all the time at home. 

Ok so the next few favourites are from The Body Shop. I've loved The Body Shop since I was young, they just have amazing smelling products that smell SO SO GOOD. okay so the first one i have is this sample-sized bottle of the Tea Tree Oil Skin Clearing Facial Cleanser. I actually got this for free when I spent like $20 or something. At first I was like, ehhh I don't know if I'm gonna like this... but as I used it more and more I was like, OMG THIS SMELLS SO GOOD AND IT FEELS SO MOISTURISING! So yeah ha it's just really relaxing and I love it so much I'm probably gonna get the full-sized version of this :D plus The Body Shop is having a major sale now ;{D

Right so the next two products I have are actually the shower gels from The Body Shop in my two favourite scents which I'd loved since I was a kid which are the Satsuma and the Strawberry one and OH MY GOD these smell SOOO good and refreshing. These two bottles actually lasted me really long, I think I got them around the end of last year I believe? But yeah I use them with my loofah, which, if you don't know is that puffy-looking pom pom looking scrub thing you use in the shower haha, and it lathers up pretty well and the smell stays on you unlike some that just smell good in the shower and then it's gone when you wash it off. But as you can see I've finished two whole bottles so I'm gonna have to get more :( Currently, (well i started today) I'm using my Yves Rocher body gel which my mum got me in Paris, and omg that one lathers up AMAZINGLY and I didn't even use THAT much! Okie, I'm getting off topic lol moving on..

Lately, I've been obsessed with wearing scarves around my neck. Of course, I don't wear it out because Singapore is crazy hot, it's summer everyday and you don't wanna be perspiring all over your scarf D}: BUT, like I said, it doesn't really get hot in my house cos the air conditioning is usually on in my room and the living area, so I decided to make use of my scarf collection rather than just letting it sit in my closet doing nothing. I think scarves are a great way to dress up a simple outfit, for example you could wear a plain basic tee and choose your scarf as your statement piece. They're really versatile and can be worn in many ways too :) 

So I just did a post on my next favourite of the month, which is the Garnier BB cream. I've been liking this a lot cos since it's been really hot and sunny lately, I feel like its important to have something with SPF on my face so I don't get like skin cancer or something. Also, just a tip for you guys, if you have oily skin, it DOES NOT mean you do not need a moisturiser on your face. In fact, by not using one, your skin will just get oilier because it's gonna try and make up for that lack of moisture by producing even more oil, which I'm sure you don't want. So I've really been liking it cos like I said, it's really nice and moisturising and protects me from the sun :{D

Okay so the next favourite I've been using for about as long as I can remember. It's my Impulse Paris body mist. I swear, this is like one of the BEST scents ever. It's super cheap, like $6 for a whole pack of 8?? idk but it's just smells so good and it lasts all day. EVEN AFTER JOGGING. I've gotten so many compliments on this scent cos it just smells like.... idk I'm horrible at describing things but if you haven't tried it, try it! I switch scents sometimes but I always come back to this one cos it's amazing <3 LOVE LOVE LOVE

Ok now, for my favourite song of the month, it's Die In Your Arms by Justin Bieber. It's just the sweetest song ever and Justin's voice sounds flawless and amazing and the song is just aahh I LOVE IT <3 I can't wait for Believe to be out :{D 

So that is it for my favourites for the month of May! I hope you guys have an amazing June ahead of you, I love you guys, bye! /virtualhug/ xx

Review: Garnier BB cream!

Hi everyone! So a few weeks ago i went to Watsons and I got this BB cream by Garnier. I had heard really good things about it and when I stepped into Watsons and saw that it was on sale, I bought it pretty much immediately :P I wouldn't really say that it was an impulse buy, because I had actually done my research on the product prior to buying it, PLUS IT WAS ON SALE so I just couldn't help myself :P Okay, enough rambling, let's get into the review!

So firstly, the BB cream I got was the Garnier Instant Fairness BB Moisturizer in Light. THAT'S A REALLY LONG NAME LOL. Anyway, this product claims to do 10 things:

1. Makes your skin look more radiant

2. Makes your skin more even-toned

3. You will have less dark spots

4. Less visible imperfections

5. Reduces redness

6. Smoother

7. More hydrated

8. Makes your skin look like it has less visible lines

9. Less visible pores

10. Reveals its healthy glow

Ok, so that's A LOT of things one product claims to do. To be honest, I couldn't care less about half the things it claims to do, but that's because i pretty much have acne-free skin so I don't have any redness, or dark spots, or things like that. However, I must say that it does make me look more radiant, my face feels nice and smooth, which is a good thing as some BB creams with high SPF levels tend to be sticky, which I don't really like. 

This BB cream has SPF 26 in it, it's anti-UVB, PA +++ and it's anti-UVA. I love that it has all this as I don't actually use a moisturiser in my skin care routine, (I am on the hunt for one though so if you have any good recommendations, do tell me in the comments below or something! :{D ) so I use this as a replacement I guess. 

I got this BB cream in the shade Light and i'm pretty tanned  I guess, though you can refer to my other posts where I had my OOTD and such if you are unsure of what shade to get :)

HOW I USE IT: 

I basically only use about half a pea size amount, or even less, personally because I'm not using it for coverage purposes, plus I have combination skin and I find that because it's sooo hot here in Singapore, when I used a pea size amount, I HAD to set it with a face powder because you could just feel the makeup melting off your face which is gross, so if you have combination to oily skin and want more coverage/use more than a pea size amount, I definitely recommend setting it with a powder. But if you're like me and you just want to make your skin look a little more radiant and awake, or if you want that moisture, then use about half a pea size and you should be fine without having to set it :)

Overall, I would give this product a 7.5/10 and I definitely recommend you guys to check it out! :{D

Okie, that's all for today, I'll see you guys next time I guess. LOVE YOU ALL AND GOODBYEEE xxx

OOTN??

Hey guys! Haha so tonight I was feeling bored so to cheer myself up I decided to make my OOTN a little more...exciting than it usually is? ;{D

So first I picked out my leopard print pajama pants which has pink and purple bits in it. Then, call me weird, but I can't wear my leopard print pajama pants with something that doesn't match, so I took my purple t-shirt and wore that since it matched my pj pants.

Then, it was kinda cold in my room so I decided to wear my fuzzy ballet flat-looking bedroom slippers/flats which my grandma gave me haha I have no idea where they're from but they're super comfy and adorbs :>

Last but not least, I decided to wear my pink headband from minibits I believe....so yeah that's it for my OOTN hahah.

Top: Giordano (nothing special, I use it for sleeping) | Pajama pants: Cotton On (I love these! They're super comfy and cute and i definitely recommend checking them out) | fuzzy bedroom slippers: I'm not sure where I got it :( |
Headband: minibits

Ok so I guess that's it for tonight, I'm getting sleepy cos it's 11.20 and I have choir practice tomorrow so till next time, sweet dreams xxx

Who said you couldn't look cute sleeping? ;)

OOTD!

Heyyyyy everyone. So...I know I pretty much disappeared for like a good month.




IM SORRY!


I had exams and all those crazy annoying school stuff and I was really busy so yeah :(


But I thought I'd do a little OOTD for you guys today :) nothing too extravagant, I was just staying at home today doing my homework and adding more songs to my iPod and stuff like that...


So let's get into it!


I was bored and didn't feel like wearing sweats and a t-shirt (which, btw, I usually wear when I'm at home lol) so I looked at my closet, then I looked at my scarf collection which I barely explore, and said "RIGHT. Let's dress up like Nikki Phillippi today!" haha
For those of you who don't know, Nikki is one of my favorite youtubers and I love her she's amazingg :) GO WATCH HER VIDEOS PEOPLE. Click here to go to her YouTube channel ;{D


Anyhoo, this is my OOTD :) I basically paired my basic white tee from Zara with my jeggings from Uniqlo which I've been obsessed with recently, cos I'm a sucker for clothes which are comfy yet fashionable :>Then, I stared long and hard at my scarves until I decided on this scarf which has burgundy, midnight blur and white stripes. Tbh I have no idea where I got it but i'm sure you can find scarves like these everywhere. 


And on my feet i was just wearing my pink fuzzy ballet-looking bedrom slippers ;D

So moving on to my arm candy for the day :D I wore my cuff bracelet that was given to me by my dear grandma aka the best baker in the world <3 Anddddd the watch was given to me by my aunt for my birthday. I absolutely adore the watch, it makes the outfit look more sophisticated and stuff haha ;D 

Okie so that's pretty much it for today! Thanks for reading my blog I love you all! - unless you're a creepy pedophile who's stalking me...

HAHA ANYWAY BYE LOVELIES! xxx

My Skincare Routine :)

Hey guys! So for today's blog post, I'll be sharing with you guys my Skincare routine! As a teenager, it's really important to take care of your skin cos if you don't, you'll get......(dramatic pause)




ACNE.

                             

I'm sure no one wants acne. (I know I don't!) I'm gonna share the products I use with you guys because I've been using this same brand I'm about to tell you in a while since I was 11 and it's really affordable and works amazingly.I've never really had any acne problems, my skin has always been clear. However, I must say only ONE brand has caused me to break out before and that is Clean & Clear.

                              

I denied that it was the product that broke me out, I kept blaming my period. I got really annoyed skin because I never really had to deal with acne until I started using Clean & Clear. But I watched reviews online and most of them were negative.So if you have acne and use Clean & Clear, you might wanna stop using it... Ok enough rambling. LET'S BEGIN! (lol)


Ok so I've been using Biore's facial cleansers since I was 11. I've used the one for oily skin, combination skin, dry skin, and so much more. After switching out the different kinds of facial cleansers, I found the one that works best for teenagers, and for my skin of course.I'm currently using the Bioré Acne Care facial foam aka the one with the orange packaging haha.It's anti-bacterial, prevents acne and gets rid of any excess oil, which is great, because my skin tends to get oily throughout the day. This product really helps because if you have oily skin and don't use a proper facial cleanser, you probably will get acne.

                      

I've repurchased the Acne Care facial cleanser multiple times now, and I have clear, acne-free skin :) You can get it at any drugstore or at Watsons, you can get it anywhere really. 




That's not all. If you watch beauty gurus on YouTube, you may have already realized that most of them use the Clarisonic. Well I'm only 14 so I don't feel the need to spend over a $100 on my skin. I'll insert a picture of the Clarisonic below :)

                   

However, I did want to find a substitute for the Clarisonic. As I was watching Bubzbeauty's "A Day in The Life of Bubz" video, I saw that she used this fish-shaped looking thing which is used with your facial cleanser, like the Clarisonic. I don't really know how to explain what it looks like, so i'll insert Bubz' vlog below. (she uses it at 0:22)

The difference between the Clarisonic and this thing is firstly, it's WAAAAAY more affordable than the Clarisonic. I bought mine about a year ago for about $8.50 if I'm not wrong, from Sasa. It works really well with the facial cleanser and gently exfoliates your skin, getting rid of all that sweat and oil built up throughout the day. I wouldn't suggest using it with a facial cleanser that already exfoliates your skin though, because it may be too abrasive. If you use makeup, this product also helps get rid of all the makeup on your face. Click here to see the product on the Sasa website :) 




So, the way I use these products is pretty basic. i get about 2cm of the facial cleanser on my palm, make it all foamy, apply all over my face, then I use the facial brush to exfoliate my skin before washing it off with cold water :) 


Right so that's it for today! I hope this helped you guys :)


BYE GUYS! Xx
