It takes TWO to acheive FLAWLESS skin

Hello..

I wanna share with all of you on how to get flawless skin.. It takes only TWO things.. Yes, trust me! Only TWO!!

After following this TWO regime, my skin is much much better.. soft with no pimples, more radiant, less blackheads and not-so-dry anymore..

The secret is THE LESS IS MORE, THE LESSER THE BETTER!!!!

Okay, you guys know that after my lap surgery two weeks ago, I became lazy to apply my complete skin care regime.. Well, I skipped my spot corrector, eye cream, night cream, etc.. and I only applied OLAY Regenerist Serum once/twice a day after cleansing my face, yes that's it!! and I also consumed OMEGA3 Fish Oil, one capsule a day to maintain my health.. and you know what??

After two weeks, my skin improved a lot!! Seriously, now I don't need to scrub my nose as often as before (my nose was full of gross blackheads last time) My skin is better now!

So, it only takes TWO to achieve my flawless skin:

ONE : OLAY REGENERIST SERUM
TWO: OMEGA3 FISH OIL

My skin is clearer now!! So I have to agree, the lesser cream I put on my face, the better my skin becomes!!

Here's the typical ME at home with no make-up, hair up, spec on & batik dress on! My skin looks good without make-up base. I don't even need to edit my picture at all.. It's flawless now, except that stubborn black circles under my eyes, lol!


OLAY REGENERIST serum can be used on areas around eyes, jaw line, neck & cheeks.. So it's all ALL in ONE.. I don't even bother to buy my night cream, eye cream, etc now because this is GOOD enough!! My skin now is moisturised enough, even in the air-con room!


I have one extra-ready stock! Just 2 pumps is enough!


You see that, left is before & right is after. You see after using this serum, my skin looks good & feels soft too


Don't forget to take one capsule of Omega3 everyday to maintain beautiful skin.. Omega3 contains EPA+DHA mainly protects the skin from inside out, mainly from UV damage. It helps to maintain supple skin, lustrous hair and stronger nails. Seriouly, it's proven! My skin is flawless now & yes, I will keep having it ONE capsule a day :)

Something Chic, Simple & Cheap

Hello...

I just shopped from Cotton On Sale at Nex, Serangoon.. It's in the atrium. You see the chic shirts below, each $5 only, super cheap but chic enough.. You should grab the white shirt with black dots below because it's super super chic & sexy, not sloppy!! This white shirt follows your body contours and the low neckline makes you look sexy, slimmer and it makes your boobs look fabulous too :) Like kind of push-up effect? Seriously, it's worth more than $5 price tag and look at that uneven cutting, just too chic for a sight! Pair it up with jeans skirt! It looks simple, but it looks super good on you when you wear it!! I regret for not buying in different color!

I also bought a vintage inspired cropped shirt and it looks cool with tied white tank top. Just try to tie your shirt at the bottom (left or right side, up to you), it will definitely freshen up your typical boring shirt day!! Trust me!! and pair it up with jeans shorts!!


The short long skirt is very popular right now, so I got a very good deal from Cotton On at $10 only.. This black dress is short at the front but a lot longer at the back! It's not very dramatic, well it's about 30 cm difference from short to long! The cutting is elegant, not too formal but not too casual.. A perfect dress for a romantic dinner with my hubby :)


Stay Chic Always

Pretty Princess Lace Shirt

Hello..

Showing off my new princess shirts, they are very very pretty with girlish lace details.. I have been shopping quite a lot recently and I have more than 10 new clothes/dresses that haven't been touched at all in my tiny wardrobe.. So you must be wondering, am I rich? to be able to shop that much without working? Well, I'm not rich, not at ALL...

I'm not rich but I'm lucky!! Absolute lucky!! Like I got these pretty princess shirts from a magazine, I got a lucky voucher from them, so I bought my pretty princess shirts with my voucher :) Then, I often get vouchers from my hubby's credit card. Plus I won lucky draws too, so I often get my cosmetics for free :)

Well, I'm starting to feel bored of my non-working life.. Seriously bored!! Staying at home, writing on my blogs, watching drama, etc... is getting more bored and bored!! So I'm planning to get a part time job, preferably in beauty! I just don't want to be so free, then that can lead me to depression! No.. No..No...

Okay back to the princess shirt, I think you girls deserve one beautiful shirt or more in your life time.. Wearing a beautiful shirt makes you feel beautiful.. That what I feel too!!

Pretty Korean Dresses 2012 Collection Part 1

Hello....

I love Korean Dresses.... Let's see what I bought with $50 budget, yes I'm a budget shopper who loves to shop at Bugis Street :)

This floral dress is so so pretty and girlish and look at the Lacy detail at the bottom, just too pretty not to buy it :) Sweet!!


This nude dress is my current favourite, this dress follows body contour and wearing this makes me feel so sexy because the dress is super short, so it's kind of showing long legs off. Oh, that flowy cutting makes my legs slimmer too! Pair it up with a brown leather belt. Simple, elegant & sexy babe!!



I love this too, look at that cute sleeves! This blue vintage definitely transforms me like a royal lady!


and I think those pretty dresses are perfect with my princess make-up :) and curly princess hair!

How to use Clearblue digital ovulation kit/test & review

Hi Ladies....

Wanna show you how to use Clearblue digital ovulation kit/test. If you are trying to conceive, this digital ovulation kit is the best in the market because it won't confuse you to read the result. I have tried to use manual ovulation kit but the "blue lines" result confused me! so I think this kit gives me the most accurate result.

My doctor predicted me to ovulate at day 16 based on the vaginal ultrasound he did during my fertile period and you know what, this kit gave me the same accurate result!!

The first time I bought this kit, I hated it so much because I didn't know how to use it, so every time I tried it out, I got ERROR result, so damn frustrated!! until I brought the kit to my women clinic and asked help from the nurse on how to use it properly. Pathetic!!!

So, just in case you ladies trying to conceive don't know how to use it (like me), here you go, I will show you step by step and I hope my little help will be helpful for you... Baby Dusts!!!!

In Singapore, it costs almost S$80, available at Watsons & Guardian and it has 7 sticks inside the box



Okay, here's the chart on when should you test it out, if you have a period cycle of average 29 days (like me), then you should start testing it on day 12 of your period cycle..

For my case, no matter if my cycle is 26, 27, 28, 29 or 30 (oh well my cycle varies from day 26-30), I always get my "smile" or positive result on day 15-18, most of the time, day 16-17 so I don't really test it out on day 12, I start on day 14, you know so I can keep the rest of my test sticks for the following month (since it's so pricey)



Here how it looks like, a predictor with a test stick


Step 1: Take your ovulation stick out & remove the pink cap


Step 2 : Insert the stick into the predictor, you see the pink arrow? It must face one another!


after inserting it, you will then see like a "pen" image on your predictor monitor


Step 3: (sorry for my gross urine), dip the stick inside your urine. I recommend to test it out in the morning, but actually it doesn't matter, I still got my positive "smile" result in the afternoon. Okay, when you dip it inside, please dip below the pink arrow (the one facing up), or white line below the pink arrow (see pic above)

Step 4: Wait a few seconds until you see the "pen" image "FLASHING ON & OFF" , meaning the pen image on your monitor appears half a sec then disappears another half a sec, and appears, then disappears, and so on. it's like flashing on & off.. It means you need to take the stick out from your urine


When I took this pic (below), the pen image flashed off, so you can't see the pen image, it's in fact flashing on & off. After that you need to cover the "urine test area" up with the pink cap.. and don't worry if the "pen image" is still flashing on & off.. Flashing ON & OFF (appears then disappears), means that the predictor is getting you the result.. just wait!!! Wait for about 3-5 minutes!!

I recommend you to throw your urine away after you get the result because sometimes you may get "ERROR" result and need to re-test again , just in case you can't pee enough within minutes (like me)

Never ever press the "EJECT" button before you get the result because it will show ERROR when you re-insert the same stick again!


Step 5: After waiting for 3-5 minutes, the pen image (flasing on & off) will finally turn into a result. A circle without smiley face means no ovulation prediction. You have to test it out again tomorrow!


and if you get a smiley face, you need to have sex on the same day & the following day (2 days), It means you are most likely to ovulate within 24-36 hours..



Step 6: Press eject button to get the stick out


Step 7: Throw the stick away and keep the predictor to test your ovulation on the next day. The result will stay there for a little while & disappear minutes later


Step 8: Keep testing every day until you see "smiley" face

Good Luck!!!

I hope it's helpful!!

Flea Market To Sell Fashion Stuff, Orchard

I have done a few flea market events at Orchard, Singapore where I sold my new & second hand fashion stuff and earned a few bucks from the events.

The rental is normally about $50-$60 per day (1 table, 1 chair), you can put your stuff on the floor too, bring your own hanger rack, make it like a real deal flea market and I'm keen to find a partner!

Tissue Flower made by Netty

Out of boredom, I created this white rose, made by tissue cloth or napkin ♥ ♥ ♥

How did I do that?

Pretty easy, take one tissue cloth.. then fold tissue cloth into 2 parts, pull out the middle part and start rolling from the end...adjust here and there a little bit.. And you've got a rose :)

A good idea to beautify your bathroom!
