New year

Hi it has been a long time since I post anything. I have been busy taking care of my newborn and now I'm back at work. Life get busier but still coping. Just lack plenty of sleep!! However when I see my baby, I guess all the hard works are worth it.

So what is my new year resolution??

To take more care for my skin!
Such as applying night skin care and doing mask at home. I know it sound ridiculous but if you are middle working class mum, who is still expressing milk for the baby. You will know how much daily time you will have left for yourself. By night, I'll be so exhausted. Consider Myself lucky as I'm still staying with my in-laws so I don't need to iron my husband's working shirts.

Going facial occasionally. Currently I'm thinking of going to gua sha facial at Geranium as now they are having promotion. $68 for 2 hours facial. Sound very relaxing but I really need some serious face extraction of white and black heads. And I think the former does not do extraction. Headache.

Exercising!! Do sit-up. I'm still working on my tummy area.

Save more money by spending less and finding a new job with better remuneration package! Recently just got my place so now saving for renovation. Don't wish to get a renovation loan as the interest will kill me!!!

1 to 1 quality time with my hubby.

Lastly but not the least importance, to do my blog.

I hope i can fulfil all of them. So look out for my post!!!

Kiehl’s New Ultra Facial Micro Serum

100% Hydration



Formulated with a blend of nourishing ingredients such as Antarcticine, Imperata Cylindrica and Squalane, Ultra Facial Micro Serum helps to evenly disperse your moisturizer to all areas equally, even where regular lotions and creams are unable to reach.


ANTARCTICINE
Prevents dryness and protects skin from extreme cold conditions


IMPERATA CYLINDRICA
Helps skin retain moisture from the air


SQUALANE
Instantly and deeply penetrates skin's surface
Leaves skin extra soft, supple and healthy looking


Don’t think I will need such hydrating moisturizer as I have combination skin. Furthermore, recently, I just bought Kiehl’s Acai Damage-Repairing Serum, which is anti-oxidant and it even has a light berry fragrant.


Anyway Kiehl's invites you to try its new ULTRA FACIAL MICRO SERUM before its launch in October!
Simply visit any Kiehl's stores and quote "Kiehl's 100% hydration" to receive a complimentary Ultra Facial Micro Serum 1.5ml* and stand to win the product worth $51! Thus no harm dropping in.

Shea Butter

Now I am so in love with shea butter.

They have excellent moisturize properties and most important to me, they smell so wonderful.

More about shea butter:
A slightly yellowish or ivory colored natural fat extracted from the fruit of the African shea tree.
It is used as food oil and also in therapeutic products. But now it is mainly use in beauty products as it has hydrating properties and studies shown it to reduce the effects of UV damage on the skin.

Currently, I am using the following.
L’occitane’s Shea Butter Fabulous Serum

L’occitane’s Shea Butter Lip Balm Stick

Body Shop’s Shea Butter Cream

 

Recently new addition: Body Shop’s Shea Body Scrub

Wondering what will I buy next..... Haha....

Watsons Expo Sales

Currently Watsons is having its Expo Sales.
27 - 29 Aug 2010
Singapore Expo Hall 3B, 10:00 am - 10:00 pm

Yesterday I went but found the brands carried are quite limited. Surprisely, quite a number of organic brands are there. I got Herbacin's moisturizing and cleansing cream as it is having 10% discount.  Tried its cleansing cream. 
Below is my review on it.

Herbacin Cleansing Cream (RP: S$18.90)

Description: Foamy cleansing cream foir face, neck and lower neckline. Extremely gentle plant-based tensides give enhanced cleaning results. The mild cleansing cream with wheat protein hydrosylate and natural extracts of aloe vera and marigold conditions the skin. Suitable for sensitive skin and skin that easily becomes inflamed.

Texture: Cream
Aroma: Light floral aroma
Colour: Creamy white
Verdict: Felt clean after wash.  Currently using for night time but will use for my morning wash too, since must finish it within 6 months after open. 

Also bought Majolica Majorca's Lash Enamel Glamour Volume mascara as it is having 20% discount off.  Usual price is S$25.90.  Quite worth it.  Lastly bought some boxer shorts for my husband and cabinet boxes, which I found them at lower price.  Watsons's member do not forget to bring your Watsons card as you will have double points at this expo sales. 

Do go down to take a look especially if you are going to Natas fair.  I am hoping for Metro and Robinsons's 20% or Takashimaya's 15% storewide sales as I am thinking of buying more skincare for my husband and myself.  Haha.  Cheers.  Have a good weekend.
