Review of #RightColorMatters by Chez Vous Hair Salon Singapore

Review of #RightColorMatters by Chez Vous Hair Salon Singapore

Have you ever been confused with beauty terms such as "skin tones", "undertones", etc.? It's almost like we can never be certain what our skin tones or undertones are, unless we consult a beauty professional. Even if we do know, how do we ascertain which hair colours are right for us? Understanding which colours flatter our skin tones is important. Different colours produce different vibes and the right hair colour can enhance our facial features, brighten our complexion and improve our style & overall look.

This is where Chez Vous Hair salon comes to the rescue! In collaboration with Goldwell Singapore, Chez Vous designed #RightColourMatters - an Asian-centric hair colour diagnosis methodology that helps to find hair shades that best complement you!

My Home Interior Design by The Interior Place + Five Tips for Choosing a Good ID

Best Interior Designs in Singapore

By now I think everyone who knows me knew I just shifted into my first home (matrimonial home), and I was busy with renovations a while back. It's been four months now and I finally got my ass down to blog about our "finished project"!

I will not be showcasing all the rooms in my humble home - just the rooms with most of the ID's carpentry works. My apartment comes in a 'move-in condition' with kitchen, toilets, floor tiles, air conditioners, oven, walk-in wardrobe etc. all done. We decided to minimise hacking works and not have major overhaul since we both like the designs the apartment came in.

**Just to make things clear, this blog post is in no way sponsored nor affiliated to any companies - purely good ol' sharing on my own accord.

Review of Eyelash Extensions at Emerald Allure - mention Faith for unlimited lashes promo SGD99!

Sponsored

In the past, I was never a fan of lash extensions. Main reasons are the resources necessary to upkeep the beauty of the lashes; and also because I do enjoy putting on mascara and reviewing them too. For heavy makeup users like me, usually there is a need to return for lash extension touchup services in less than two weeks' time - totally bleh.

Recently I followed my husband on a business trip to Brisbane, and since it was a short stay, I felt the need for lash extensions as I don't want to spend too much time on makeup. My friend knew I was looking to do up the lashes, so she connected me to a beauty salon which has gain much popularity on their lash extensions services - Emerald Allure.

Located at two locations currently - Roxy Square and Punggol, they provide a repertoire of beauty services that includes lash extensions, facial, manicure/pedicure, henna brow, eyeliner embroidery and even bridal makeup services.

To give you an idea how big the difference is with and without eyelash extensions, I decided that it is useful to include my selfies in all kinds of makeup situations, so you can make fair comparisons.

Hi lovelies,

This post is not a review since I reviewed this salon before, just a quick "Dayre" type of post update (typing on my iPhone actually). 

Hair Studio Flamingo Singapore Neil Road review

I just did my hair again at Hair Studio Flamingo and this time I got myself the Korean see-through bangs! 
How do you like it?

Hair Studio Flamingo Singapore Neil Road review


Really pleased with how it turned out. Love the brown colour as I am sick of golden hair. What I adore especially is the customised 5-step treatment! If you followed me on Instagram, you'd have seen my IG stories capturing the moments while I had the haircut & treatment.

Marco, the boss, did my hair this time round. His cut is fabulous and I really love it! Communication with him was excellent because both Marco and Ayumi speak good English.

Update (1 week later)
As you may already know, Flamingo markets itself as a specialist of "easy maintanence hairstyles", and as evidenced in the photo below, my hair really doesn't need any styling at all (ZERO hair cream/wax/straightener/spray etc.) and it still looks so awesomely silky!! Even my bangs do not need blowdrying!! I'm impressed, really. DO NOT miss their hair treatment!

Honest, Unsponsored Review of Hello Kitty Orchid Garden Cafe Singapore

Unsponsored Review of Hello Kitty Orchid Garden Cafe Singapore
Five solid months after the grand opening of the first Hello Kitty cafe in Singapore - Hello Kitty Orchid Garden Cafe at Changi Airport, I thought it would be a good time for an ex-Hello Kitty fan to visit her old friend since the hype would have died down by now.

Well, not really. Hello Kitty is not my friend.

I went mainly because I am picking up someone from the airport, and it's the only prominent cafe I have not dined in at the airport. Also because I think I need some cute photos on Instagram, because my recent IG wall has been plastered with mainly my selfies and I am bored looking at my face. 

Unsponsored Review of Hello Kitty Orchid Garden Cafe Singapore
Apologies, my photos in this post are horribly-taken by iPhone, because I wasn't prepared to do any blog reviews so I did not bring along my DSLR. Eventually I still decided to review because when I did an online search of blog reviews of this cafe, I saw that many of them were sponsored. I believe there is a sizeable online community, especially overseas tourists, out there wanting real, honest non-sponsored reviews of this inaugural Hello Kitty Singapore cafe. And that's where I come in.

As a beauty blogger, I usually reject doing food reviews, especially sponsored food reviews. I mean, I have nothing against free food but I REALLY enjoy my food...and I don't want to spend half an hour fussing about taking amazing photos and end up eating cold food, unable to totally enjoy the meal.

Me and my new Victorian-styled chair from Taobao!

Hello Lovelies!
Remember in my previous posts, I mentioned I just moved into my new home? And as you know, shifting is a tedious task and to top it off, shopping for furniture and furnishings can  be stressful when what you have in mind are not accessible in your country. Even when they are available, they may be priced out of your budget due to high shipping costs or high markup by local sellers.

That's why I decided to source my home stuff from Taobao. If you're an avid online shopper like I am, you'd have heard of Taobao long ago. If you're new to Taobao, then read on!

Review of Bella 360° Illuminator Treatment

Sponsored


Summer time is the perfect time to go sun bathing. 

I, on the other hand, avoid the sun like a plague. For me, even a few minutes walk out in the Singapore sun warrants a hat, an umbrella and at least SPF30. Truth be told, despite all the sun protection and brightening skincare products, my skin is still far from Snow White's. 

When Bella invited me over to put one of their latest facial treatment services on trial, I accepted without a moment of hesitation. Illuminating treatment? 360°?! Sounds like what many S.E. Asians (who are into K-beauty and wish to emulate Koreans' fair skin) would love!

Review of Pure Tincture Organic Facial Service - sukispa Balancing Cosmeceutical Facial

Sponsored



You are not just what you eat, you are also what you apply. Amongst the huge variety of skincare brands, I always have a soft spot for natural/organic brands due to the better health benefits that tag along.
In Singapore, organic facial salons are still quite a niche of its own. One popular and better-known organic facial place is Pure Tincture Organic Beauty. Their facials are tailored to different skin types and have been regularly featured in local magazines since 2011.

Soft & Silky Hair with The Scene Hair Salon at Raffles City

Top Singapore Influencer 2016
Hair troubles are one of the worst problems for a woman, especially when it comes to nearing festive seasons.
I was relieved when The Scene Hair Salon at Raffles City invited me to sample their hair services. I hope to do something for my dry, dull hair - be it a perm, a treatment or even a huge change of colour.

The Scene Hair Salon at Raffles City Review
Conveniently located at a prime central location, Raffles City S.C. (at City Hall MRT station), The Scene Hair Salon is a fairly new Korean hair salon; under the same hair group of Dusol Beauty Singapore.

There were already many reviews and even Youtube videos on Dusol Beauty, hence I was pretty certain I would be in good (Korean) hands. Some information about the hairstylists of The Scene @Raffles:

I was served by the very experienced hairstylist, Jade, and he advised me against perms as parts of my hair had been bleached and looks damaged. Being a cautious person that I am, I took heed of his advice and we proceeded to undergo their popular DEESSE's [L.M] 3+1 Hair Treatment: a 4-step hair treatment to nourish & repair the hair.

A Delightful Experience at D'Light Adara Spa! - Review of Payot Solution Techni Liss

Sponsored

Review of Dlight Facial Spa

Heard of the Parisian beauty brand, Payot? I believe you are one of the many women who have, especially if you for go regular facials. Payot, with a history of over 100 years, is one of the oldest & most trusty brands that quality beauty salons use for their facials. 


Boss of D'Light Adara (left) with Mr Rodrique Chastenet de Grey, Export Director of Payot Paris.
Recently, I had the honour to be invited for a facial by a beauty spa, endorsed by the current Regional Director of Payot in France himself. (Yes, out of so many Payot authorised beauty salons in the world, the Export Regional Director of Payot actually flew to Singapore and paid a visit to this beauty spa!) And this beauty spa I am reviewing today is none other than D'Light Adara Spa!



D'Light Adara Spa is situated in the recluse of Hougang Street 21, away from the hustle & bustle of the city. As I first stepped into the spa, I was cordially greeted by the lady boss, Ms Doris Lee and her friendly female staff. One of spa's selling points is female privacy, hence, no males are allowed to enter the grounds. I felt at ease & comfortable knowing that I am in good hands, and my privacy won't be compromised.


Lounge area 

The first step of the facial experience entails a quick assessment of my current skin health and completing a form to help the facial therapist understand my needs better. 

Upon removal of my makeup, Shirley, my facial therapist, immediately analyzed my skin as combination skin type and followed by recommending me one of Payot's signature salon treatments - Solution Techni Liss.

Quoted from Payot's official website:
"Solution Techni Liss is an  ultra- smoothing protocol that consists of a relaxation prelude to release muscle tension and eliminate fatigue.
It is followed by a high concentration of AHA peels to " makeover " and refine skin texture.
A specific modeling, the 42-Movement massage, stimulates muscles and skin to tone and stimulate your body.
A rebalancing smoothing mask with hyaluronic acid completes the task and restores the pH of the skin after peeling while smoothing and filling wrinkles."

Review of Scinn Medical Centre BBL Broadband Treatment

In November 2015, Mary Chia Holdings newly opened their first aesthetics medical centre at Ngee Ann City Tower B, named Scinn Medical Centre.

The brand name Mary Chia was named after its founder and is a home-grown leading beauty and wellness spa brand with over 33 years of experience in the industry. The Mary Chia brand has received numerous awards and accolades under its belt. I am pretty certain there are no women in Singapore & Malaysia who hasn't heard of Mary Chia.

I had the honour to be invited to the opening of Scinn Medical and personally met Ms Mary Chia and her daughter Ms Wendy Ho, who is the current CEO of Mary Chia Holdings. Ms Mary Chia, at her age, looks super amazing and her skin is so youthful & practically glowing from inside. This beauty guru indeed walks the talk. I remembered reading on Her World magazine , the advice that she gave her daughter : 
 
“There are no ugly women in this world, only women who don’t pay enough attention to themselves. I learnt that a woman must set aside time to love herself.” 


I totally concur with that line and had lived by that motto for 33 years!
