My sorbet melted because…


I was busy snapping away.







After party at Zouk. Danza Kuduro!






Look at the crowd! The bloggers burned both nights - first night at Zouk, second night at G Tower. Do we even sleep?


Spent 3D2N at Putrajaya Marriott.


Nice view from my room!


I’m going to die from clogged arteries due to high level of cholesterol in my blood! I had three types of eggs for breakfast - omlette, scrambled and overeasy.

I will upload more photos when I get hold of them. All photos above are mine unless otherwise stated.

A big thank you to Hayden Boutique!


I love how the gown turned heads at Nuffnang Asia-Pacific Blog Awards (NAPBAS). Some commented that the gown leaves no room for imagination because of the great fit while some said it looks atas. Either way, I fancy the gown, especially the bright color and cut.


Hayden was really kind to provide me with jewelry from Michal Negrin to match his gown.

Do follow Hayden on Twitter or Facebook for fashionable updates!


This parsley shawl reminds me of his pre-fall 2011 collection.

You’ve got yourself an Elizabeth Arden Red Door EDT worth S$84 for Christmas! Have a jolly good smelling time!

Removing makeup can be a chore after a long day. My skin sometimes feel sticky after using an oil-based makeup remover.

I received a sample of Bifesta and I decided to put it to test last night.






I was quite deterred by the term “water-based” because oil has been known to break down pigments in makeup. Makeup is waterproof, what can a water-based makeup remover do?

Then again, I was so tired and “non-rinse” appealed to me. I tried the sebum cleansing lotion which is most suited for my combination skin.

Indeed, the cleansing lotion wasn’t oily at all. It looks like water on my cotton pad. I would love to show you a picture but you will probably say I’m lame because it is literally looks like water.

I immediately went for my eye area and off came the hardcore mascara and gel eyeliner. It was that good!

My skin was spared from the sticky after-feel and all my makeup was gone with minimal effort. I didn’t feel a need to rinse my face at all. The cleansing lotion was refreshingly light!

I have sensitive eyes and some makeup removers cause my eyes to turn red upon contact. Yes, sometimes even when I close my eyes. However, Bifesta didn’t cause any redness despite the warning below - avoid contact with eyes.



I’m not kidding you. My eyes are so sensitive I have to use extended wear contact lens from Air Optix or Johnson & Johnson which cost a bomb. Sadly, my eyes still turn red after 8 hours of usage. I have tried Biomedics and Bausch and Lomb but they never fail to make me tear after merely 4 hours.

Went for the SMRT Makan Session with Ladyironchef on 26 November 2011 with thanks to Nuffnang and SMRT.


The “ok” sign actually meant “circle line”. LOL.


We walked a short distance to Swiss Butchery from Botanic Garden MRT.


With Ladyironchef, Brad.












Chicken


Fish!


Portobello mushroom beef burger!


Take a look at the generous portobello mushroom, cheese and bacon serving!






There was a Q&A session regarding SMRT circle line after the makan session. I looked up and realised everyone was looking at our table because… we were the last to complete. LOL but we got all the answers right!

Fastest fingers first. Congrats to the winners who took home a Churp Churp soft toy/SMRT guide book.


We were served with so much food and a goodie bag from SMRT.


Thank you Nuffnang for the great makan session!


Oh, and you can choose to purchase meats from the Swiss Butchery too.

The Muppets Premiere was marvelous!!
