Review: Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte in 3 Beige Ultime!

Rouge Volupte in Beige Ultime! For those who may have seen my previous reviews I've already bought several of YSL's Rouge Volupte lipsticks as I absolutely am a huge fan of the formula and finish! As someone who has lips which are permanently either just hydrated enough or slightly dry despite drinking double the amount of water than everyone else around me this lipstick is a godsend.

Special: Sunday Brunch for my boyfriend's birthday!

Hello everyone! It's been 5 years since my last post and A LOT has transpired. I recently actually watched the movie Julie+ Julia...or is it Julia+Julie? Basically the protagonist starts a blog as part of her cooking journey through Julia Child's famous cookbook and that reminded me about this blog that I used to regularly write!

The next couple posts or so will be old draft posts I want to put out before I start putting out 'new' and more recent stuff. I'm not quite sure if I want to still include a mix of food/travel so we shall see!

Lunchdate: Black smokey eye and Tandoori with Naan!

Smokey eyes and tandoori chicken! Indian food is definitely enjoyed in my household although we don't eat it as often as our usual chinese singaporean foods. There's a casual Indian food joint called 'Prata Wala' the boyfriend and I like visiting now and again and our favorite thing to get is the tandoori naan set for two which comes with beautifully roasted tandoori chicken, freshly baked naan bread and a spread of vegetable curries and fresh salad.

Review: Origins Flower Fusion Sheet Mask (Violet, Orange, Jasmine and Rose)!

Flower Fusion! For those mornings, evenings and nights when your skin needs a pick-me-up, facial sheet masks are always a good choice. I personally use sheet masks to prep my skin if it's feeling dry or in the evenings to relax after a long day. 

Today I'll be reviewing the Flower Fusion sheet masks from Origins in four different scents! They are a botanical-infused mask that is meant to address specific skincare needs for immediate results. There is bamboo and pure flower extracts in the masks which is meant to boost moisture levels, refine and soothe tired skin.

Food Post: Things eaten out and home made! (Jan/Feb 2017)

Colorful and tasty! Yes, that's right, I like my food tasty but also very colorful! I'm sure many of you must have heard that eating food in a wider range of colors means that we are getting more vitamins and minerals and so that's what I do and eat religiously by! Today I've got shots of meals I've mowed down earlier this year, I hope nobody is hungry while scrolling through this post or I can gaurantee you will leave half way to grab a snack!

Review: Anna Sui Rose Cheek Color N in 301!

Rosey Cheeks! Blush has always been my kryptonite! I love a good blush and application that not only adds color to the face but sculpts the face without the need for any contour or bronzer. Anna Sui's aesthetic has always been appealing to me. Along with the look and all things rose obsessed there was a time that I just loved the look of blushes with multiple shades. This was in the back of my mind for about two years before I found them at Sasa and swatched them all in person before finally  getting my hands on one!

Holiday Special: Day 5 in Patong, Phuket Thailand! (May 2016)

Day 5 in Patong, Phuket Thailand! It's been a long time coming since I wrote about my trip to Phuket last year. Day 5 was nothing but a day full of feasting from the time we woke up till the time we went to bed! 

I had searched in advanced about the top places serving a fancier sunday brunch and settled on Twinpalms Resort which is one of the higher end resorts in Phuket which was about a 30-45 minute drive away from the area we were staying in. The day took a fun turn when we ended up at a cat cafe in the afternoon for about 2 hours before exploring an open market street in town.
