Jan 2013 food: Seafood with white wine angel hair pasta!

Seafood and pasta, favorites combined! I'm a huge fan of seafood, I probably could eat any seafood, shell fish, crustaceans, fish for the rest of my meals and be happy. That and pastas and spaghetti which I adore too!

I promised to cook my family a white sauce spaghetti last week and so I did!

Haul: ASOS.com dresses and tops! (December sale)

Affordable online pieces from ASOS! Dresses and tops! I've never been someone who thought I'd enjoy online shopping. Afraid about getting the wrong size, the wrong color and cutting...I caved in since I now know my size for dresses and tops for sure with UK sizing!

When I browsed after a while during October, november and december I really was impressed by the discounts and combine with free shipping...the price of three dresses would have been the price of one in singapore which is between $60-100 SGD whereas online on sale these dresses are between $15-35 SGD!

Continue below for the pieces I picked!

Review: Color Combos Ultra Smooth 2 way Cake in 02 Beige! (FOTD/ contouring)

How do I like my skin? Smooth, clear and matte! This was a goodie I picked up back in December when I was purchasing skincare bits! For those who don't know, I'm attending a culinary school, hence make up is not allowed. I do use powder, always, as its what I need at the least.

Check out my skincare December haul here!

Since I go through so much powder all the time I decided to try this which was on sale for $13 SGD instead of the UP of $19 SGD. It only had 2 shades, 01 and 02, I picked up 02 and currently after a lot of use have maybe 30% of product left!

Check out my compiled end of year haul of skincare, cosmetics and clothes here!

Haul (from Nov 2012): La Senza lingerie lovelies~!

Sophisticated, cute and sexy...oh I love La Senza!

Hey my lovely girly followers! I've been trying hard to post a few times a week, a minimum of two as I also am busy and quite tired some days from school. I still take time to check out your blogs and those of who I follow.

I buy almost all my bras, panties and lingerie from La Senza, they are an amazing brand. They fit amazingly, they have awesome designs, their pieces are comfortable and practical and sexy and special at times.

I have not frequented other brands like Triumph or Wacoal ever since I started buying from La Senza now almost two years ago. La Senza has better designs and fit for asian ladies with larger chests and they cost about the same or less than bras from well known brands.

Continue below for the haul of goodies!
Super fun and sexy haul from La Senza! These things were picked up back in October from the newest La Senza outlet at Vivo city near my old part time work place!

Review: Maybelline the Magnum Volum' Express Ultra comb mascara!

Express mascara anyone? Hey all! Been busy all this week with school and am actually feeling real tired! However we have an enrichment presentation to attend on Saturday! Grr...on well. Maybelline from my experience has made some awesome mascaras that are actually very asian lash friendly when used with certain techniques.

I'm a huge fan of their 'the magnum volum express' mascara with the curved wand which gives me very volumized and thick waterproof lashes if I'm going for a quick, thick lash look. (Check out my review here!)

Review: Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain! (Precious, Rendevous, Lovesick)

Kissable...or so they say! I have actually exchanged some kisses with my other half wearing this and it does not transfer when dried! Yay for that!

Everyone in the beauty blogsphere has seem to have tried several or all of the shades from Revlons latest lippie product. However these arrived sometime in November last year which is much later than my western counterparts!

At a 20% sale, I grabbed one for myself, then ended up getting my mother to get me another and one for herself as well! I also helped a friend picked one when I was with her on the same day I discovered they were selling!

Special: Getting to know me (Q & A) and Liebster and some other blog awards!

Greetings dear followers, care to get to know me? Over the course of the last year which has been when I started to blog regularly I've been awarded several blog awards.

If I'm not wrong, I've been awarded the Liebster Award 3 or 4 times and the Creative or Cute award...I'm not really sure but I know I was given one more that wasn't the Liebster. 

So why haven't I claimed and written posts? To be honest, I can't be bothered. I really appreciate the blog community for giving me the awards but I rather have Q&A post. Even now as I get to the awards, I will not be placing a badge on my blog to show I've received them as I just rather not.

Thank you to all those that follow me and please note that I do not ever follow for a follow. I don't follow blogs expecting them to follow me back and that's my mentality.

If that's what you were expecting, you are very welcomed to stop following me. I only follow those who have content I want to keep up to date with, it doesn't mean your blog isn't worth my time, it's just likely not what I'm interested in.

Continue below for my Q & A and response to the Liebster Award!

Rave Review: Clio Gelpresso Waterproof Pencil Gel liner! (shades 4 and 8)

Gelpresso liner all the way! I do want to take a moment to apologize to a few viewers who may have saw this post before it was ready to be published! It was 1:30 in the morning and I was uploading photos to write posts and instead of hitting 'save', I hit 'publish'!

This korean brand came into Singapore's pharmacy Watsons about more than a year ago and they sell these crossbreed of gel eyeliner in a pencil form. They come in a nice range of wearable shades and have been pretty awesome.

Review: Laneige Water Sleeping Pack_EX!

Water masking time! For those who know about this Korean brand Laneige, it's well-known for very light textured skin care and make up. This line of skin care is all 'snow crystal' and water based and is meant for hydration!

The first time I used this water gel mask product from Laneige, my mom and I bought it on board Silkair airline when the brand was not yet selling in Singapore! That was more than 2 years ago!

Special: New Years Eve Dinner with the family! (FOTD and nails!)

Happy New Year! Hope you all had a good time whether it be relaxing at home, with friends, family or your pets! I had a fancyish dinner with my family which I only booked the night before when thinking about what to do for New Year's Eve!

We ate at a slightly upscale restaurant called "Angus Steak: Charcoal Grill Yakiniku Grill" Their food is a blend of Japanese and western grill using high quality Japanese beef!

I had some trouble at first deciding what make up to do but I ended up doing a layered and very rich looking brown eye!
