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

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 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
