gardens by the bay part 1

Recently, I went to the Gardens by the Bay, and they just so happened to have their tulip display out! Might I just say, that Tulips are probably my new favourite flower. I love how they are planted and grow in huge bunches.  I took so many photos of the beautiful flowers, that I need to split this trip up into 2 posts. IMG_1809

Theyre so dramatic. I was really quite amazed by how beautiful the colors of the flowers were. Sometimes, natural beauty just cannot be recreated.

Alrighty!
Since being back home, it’s been apparent how many women work in Singapore. THEREFORE. I decided to do a quick and easy look of how to turn a simple workoutfit to a fun night outfit! YAY!
Alrighty it should be pretty straight forward from here, but yea! Keep the bulkier items on, like the long pants and blazer and switch the tops and shoes! You can even keep the shoes the way you want it! Keep it simple but really fun when you want to go out at night.
I personally think women these days are starting to look so fabulous at work. I was in town just today and saw 2 ladies that caught my eye. They were wearing colored high waisted pants with a black top and a tight fitted blazer. They looked incredibly stylish! I can’t wait to work! Seriously!
Have a great day to everyone!

Review time! (Make Up)

Hey there girlies.

During my time in London, I got some new cosmetics to try out. This is just a part of it so, STAY TUNED. I was walking around at a mall and saw the Benefit boutique and just had to stop by and look. I’ve always walked past them and looked at their products but never really got down to getting anything from them. SO! I figure this should be the time!! One thing i really adore about Benefit is their delightful packaging. I LOVE the vintage look and how its always so innovative and feminine!

Heres the loot :

BAD gal Lash Mascara

This bad “gal” right here does wonders for my lashes. Which came to a surprise to me because usually, mascara that volumizes my lashes dont really work on mine. Mine are thin and straight and usually need to be curled for an eternity before it can actually look decent. This mascara has the kind of formula that doesnt clump but adds lots of volume! Great for people who want to try out mascara for the first time, and also great for the pros as well!

Some Kind of Gorgeous Foundation Faker

At first I was a little confused when i heard “foundation faker”. It basically is a “creme-to-powder” consistency, and goes on your skin SUPER smooth and evens out your skin tone perfectly, which is exactly what foundation is supposed to be. I find many people mistake foundation to be a cover-up as well, which leads their face to be “cakey”. When in reality, you only need a little! A little goes a long way!! This is pretty incredible. It blended super well into my skin, and really made my skin look so even! Do try it out!

The PORE fessional primer

OK, firstly, I have to say this. This primer is not a bad primer. I LOVE THE PROMO VIDEOS FOR IT. Look it up if you wanna see it. Totally adorable. The primer is slightly tinted, and goes on real smooth, just like usual primers do. It fills up a lot of lines or pores, giving the illusion of beautiful smooth skin. AND it lasts pretty much the whole day. I found it interetsing that you can put it both on top of and below your make up. The usual primers I know of is only for under the skin. So that was pretty cool. I like the way it made my skin feel!

Boi-ing Concealer

This concealer is the bomb. Seriously. When it comes to best coverage, this is IT. It just covers and blends so efficiently into your skin! Its incredible. Im pretty sure if you’re just running out to the store outside and want to look a little bit more presentable, just put this little baby on your little imperfections and BOOM you’re ready to go. So good.

Hello Flawless Oxygen WOW Brightening Foundation

I’m completely loving this foundation so far. It goes on REAL light on my skin, which is great for me cause I hate feeling heavy and gross. Half a pump of this beauty and it covers your whole face. Remember, FOUNDATION IS FOR EVENING OUT SKIN TONE, NOT COVERAGE, THAT’S CONCEALER. Like I said above, you wanna stay away from the “cake face” OOOH, thats a nono.

Tripple Performing Facial Emulsion

This moisturizer was not too bad. It went on a little heavy, but made my skin feel oh so smooth. In comparison to my other face moisturizer I picked up from LUSH (vanishing creme), this one makes my face a little oily, where as the other one gets completely absorbed into my skin. What kind of moisturizer do you like? Leave a comment and let me know!!

 

Acne Stress Control Power-Clear Scrub

Ah, finally, last product for today’s post. I was going for about 2 months without a scrub, and I began to break out. So I headed over to Tescos and grabed this little bad boy. It’s not too hard on the skin! I like exfoliators that really get rid of dead skin while taking care of the condition of my skin. This one seems to do not only both, but treat acne too. BTW, when I say take care of the condition of my skin, I mean like, moisturizes it at the same time. Whenever I finish using this, I instantly feel refreshed, my skin that is.

 

So this is is for now, more reviews and fashion haul coming up soon!!

xoxo, Sarah ❤
