Issey Miyake Bao Bao Exhibition at Ion

Club 21 held a special Issey Miyake Bao Bao exhibition at ion orchard to celebrate the opening of the new Issey Miyake Bao Bao boutique. Some limited edition Issey Miyake Bao Bao bags were on showcase.

This range of metallic pink Issey Miyake Bao Bao bags spotted at the exhibition is one of my favorites.

The Bao Bao bags also come in metallic gold.

This limited edition Bao Bao bag is to celebrate the opening of the ion boutique. 

That's me trying to capture my reflection in the balloon decors. 

Selfie time.

Lillian Too Fengshui Extravaganza 2016

I guess I could be an early starter cos this annual event on 3rd Jan was my first event of 2016! Wishing everyone here a Happy New Year! Interesting to learn about the various good and negative sectors for 2016 and the possible enhancers and cures that could be used. It's always nice to see the various beautiful Fengshui jewellery and accessories that Aunt Lillian Too has designed for the new year. I sat next to a nice lady who happened to be the same age as my leechie mum and she flew in from Hong Kong to attend this seminar. Aunt Lillian Too has launched a new colouring book and I understood from some statistics that colouring books are amongst the bestsellers on Amazon!

Grand Opening of Valentino Boutique at Marina Bay Sands

Congratulations Valentino on the grand opening of the new Valentino boutique at Marina Bay Sands. It was a star-studded affair with 4 international celebrities flying in for this grand opening. When I reached the event before 7pm, I was surprised to see screaming fans lining the walkway. There were rows and rows of screaming fans lining the other floors of MBS by the time I left the event at 8+pm! Kpop princess Jessica was the celebrity that fans most eagerly waited to see. Tvb star actress, Charmaine Sheh, n actress, Linda Chung, n singer actor, Pak Ho, were specially flown in for this grand opening. I was star-struck by all the star dust surrounding me. Lol. Thanks friend for the lovely invite to this star-studded grand opening party.

I was this close to Kpop princess, Jessica, when she made her entrance at the grand opening party.

Such a sweet smile from Kpop princess, Jessica.

Charmaine Sheh looks so gorgeous in person and so elegant in this Valentino dress. 

Love the dangling Valentino earrings that Charmaine Sheh wore to the grand opening of Valentino MBS.

Hong Kong actress, Linda Chung, actually walked past me several times but I was too slow to take photos. Lol

Here's another clearer photo of Linda Chung.

Another no filter photo of Pak Ho. 

And me being me, wouldn't miss out on a selfie opportunity with Pak Ho. He's so cute. Check out those puppy eyes! Ok, I'm still vertically challenged...

Interesting bufferfly designs spotted on Valentino SS16 bags. 

The pastel sweet pink color of these Valentino rock stud bags are so pretty!

Review of LPG® 10% Peeling Procedure and Intense Hydrating Smoothing Serum


Thanks Anna and Christine for the kind media invitation to the Official Launch of LPG® Endermologie® Cosmétiques - Face & Body Line at LPG® Endermospa, Ngee Ann City in late October. I have since returned for my trial session of LPG® 10% Peeling Procedure in late December and would like to share with you my experience at LPG® Endermospa, Ngee Ann City.

A little background on LPG® 10% Peeling Procedure:
The LPG® Peel works its magic by exfoliating the skin and boosting cellular regeneration. This superficial peel formula contains 10% acid and is a synergistic blend of glycolic and mandelic acids for optimal anti-ageing results while reducing skin damage risks. Face Endermologie is the only technology capable of natural reactivation of production of skin essentials necessary for youthful-looking skin based on a 2013 Humbert Study: collagen for firmness (+23%*), elastin (+46%*) for suppleness and hyaluronic acid (+80%*) for hydration and re-plumping action.

The therapist first carried out the endermolift on my face which lasted around 20 min and I like the lifting vibrations on my skin. I pointed out my problematic areas to the therapist and she concentrated on my chin area to try to produce a V-shape look. The therapist carried out the treatment on the right side of my face first so that I could compare it to my left. My right face looked visibly much more toned as compared to my left which had not undergone the treatment. Learnt that this treatment stimulates collagen production which can last for about a month. So the recommended frequency of treatment would be around 3-4 weeks lapse in between treatments.

The therapist then applied the 10% acid peel which is a synergistic blend of glycolic and mandelic acids. Those with sensitive skin like myself might experience slight itch on the skin during this 5 min before application of a neutralizer to neutralize the acid. But I'm happy that this treatment is safe and suitable for even people with sensitive skin!

LPG Intense Hydrating Soothing Serum

I'm a fan of facial serums cos serums usually contain the highest concentration of potent ingredients and are lighter in texture than moisurizers and facial creams. I just tried out the new LPG intense hydrating soothing serum. I like how it deeply hydrates my skin without leaving any oily residue. Love the light texture and the soothing effects! Do check out this new serum which is available exclusively at LPG® Endermospa, Ngee Ann City.

By the way, I wore a Minions tee without any makeup the other day and someone thought I'm a kid. She only realized that I could at best be at kid at heart when she saw my age on the form. I usually get mistaken for being a student by the staff at the registration booth at some events. Think it's what Adrian n Sherwin would term as "the Dracula effect" (as Draculas don't age). Lol. But in all honesty, I use tons of top notch skincare products. Would like to thank all my sponsors =)
