Answers for 2 Singapore-specific Shopping...
Hi there, I was wondering what i could get my mum for mothers day and im not sure what to do? Thank you so much
1. When my budget is small to mid-range, I will think about what brands have cute packaging, aren’t expensive, and that she DOESN’T often have access to. E.g. my mom never visits Sephora, so I will go for the beautifully packaged products from brands like Bliss, Fresh, Soap &...

cherrypies asked: Thanks for making that anti-aging post ! I just have one question regarding sunscreen: aren't titanium dioxide or zinc oxide bettter than Helioplex or Mexoryl ? They claim to be photostable and absorb UVA rays as well, plus, they're easier to find, nearly every sunscreen products contains one of the two, so why should I buy sunscreen particularly from L'oreal or Neutrogena ?

Anti-Aging Tips: What's Worked For Me
Quite a few people sent me messages asking me to share any diet or skincare secrets I might have to keep my skin young-looking. Not saying I’ve succeeded or anything, and it’s all an educated guess, because the state our skin is a combination of so many factors (diet, habits, environment, genes) and we can’t go back in time to verify which made the most impact.
But here’s MY humble opinion...

Full Rant: Don't buy those Color Sensational Bold...
It is with great sadness (I HATE it when pinks disappoint me) that I report those lipsticks kinda failed my mark for being BOLD or MATTE. What with all the hype I unwittingly created before even trying them on my lips, I had to make this post and apologize for the undeserved attention. And I’m taking the post down off FB, Instagram, Pinterest…. just so nobody is misled.

Makeupbox Beauty Q&A (April-May 2013)
Do you have naked 1 or 2?i want to buy 1 eyeshadow palette only. What would you recommend me?how about the vice palette?thx b4!
I don’t own either of the Naked palettes because I have so many shadows already!! But I personally prefer Naked 1 because it gives the option of doing slightly smokier looks. Naked 2 is mostly softer and lighter colors, and good if you never wear darker eyes. Vice...

Beauty Q&A (20 April 2013)
Hey um I’m just starting out with makeup, what do you think is a good idea for everyday schoolish makeup for a middle schooler? (I want to look fairly natural though)
I would say go with a soft matte browns and beiges on the lids, a little mascara, just a hint of color on the cheeks, and a nice lipgloss that isn’t TOO pigmented, so it has a tint but your lip-color shows through. Here’s a...

Anonymous asked: Hi, any makeup recommendations for tapered eyelids? (im asian) My eyelids are weird like there's a flappy fold of skin in the inner corners and then a slight double eyelid at the end. So whenever I put on eyeliner it can't be seen at all :"(
