A date with Purer Skin once more [For the Inner Beauty]

Is been a great 6 months with Purer Skin, I've been diligently using their skincare and my skin has made tremendous improvement since. Is hard to imagine it is actually possible to incorporate pure Birdnest into my daily regiment.
Among all my current favourite is the Purer Skin Crème Cleanser, it not only gives my skin the needed moisture after cleansing it actually brightens the skin surface!

Look at all the goodies I've received for the past 6 months

Purer Skin is definitely product for youth extension, it showers the skin with so much love and attention, helping to nourish and smooth my skin texture. I can't be more thankful for that radiant look I carry on my face nowadays.

Aside from feeding the skin, Purer Skin came up with their newly launch product for consumption!
Introducing:

Bird’s Nest EGF Beauty Drink
Bird’s Nest EGF Day/Night Beauty Jellies

To tell you the truth,  both products taste nothing like conventional collagen drink/jellies, they are filled with yummy goodness that taste great! And best of all, the key ingredient contains Pure Concentrated Bird's nest.

Bird’s Nest EGF Beauty Drink 
 photo DSC00002copy.jpg
Bird’s Nest EGF Beauty Drink S$30.00 is available in a mini carton that contains 6 bottles of 50ml drink. 

Formulated into Lychee and pomegranate flavour, Purer Skin EGF is one of the tastiest beauty drinks I have ever came across.
Not only it does contain Pure Bird's nest, it also carries key ingredients like: France Ceramide that keep skin moisturised naturally, Astaxhanthin which keeps the skin young, Royal Jelly for skin renewal, scar and wound healing and Acerola Extract to improve skin tone, heal sun damaged skin.
Instead of looking at this as a routine drink, I see it as a daily indulgence. It is like having the perks to enjoy ice-cream everyday except zero ounce of sinfulness.

Product actually looks like this, very similar to those flavoured canned lychees except is all healthy goodness. 
 photo DSC00004.jpg

Key Benefits to Purer Skin EGF Beauty Drink:
  1. Cell repair and improve skin elasticity
  2. Naturally moisturise skin from inside
  3. Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) encourages natural collagen production
It has more of the lychee than the pomegranate flavour and because it tasted so refreshing, I considered this perk-me-up drink.
 photo DSC00006.jpg
Bird’s Nest EGF Day/Night Beauty Jellies S$30.00 is available in a box 5 day and 5 night sachets (10 sachets)

I've never come across a Day and Night Jelly, I believe Purer Skin is one of the first.

Ok to start off I love eating Jelly, whenever I shop at local supermarket I will never fail to visit the section containing jellies. As good as it taste, most jellies (for leisure bites) actually contains artificial flavouring which is least healthy for the body.

So Purer Skin came up their own version of Jellies that is yummy and beneficial, I'm thinking why go for the ones at the supermarkets where it can only satisfy my cravings when I can chew on something that helps improve my overall well being (and also satisfy my cravings)?

Every sachet is pack in a foil strip that is easy to tear apart, no more dirtying your scissors just to get them opened.
 photo DSC00008.jpg

Bird's Nest EGF Beauty Jelly comes in 2 different flavours, the Day Jelly in Bird's Nest and Granny Smith Apple and the Night Jelly in Bird's Nest and Juicy Peach .

The Key Ingredient of both Jellies are pretty much the same (Purer Source Bird’s NestTM  Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) for skin cell regeneration and repair, Vitamin C to encourage natural production of collagen, Biotin for natural glow and to reduce wrinkles) except the Day Jelly contains Apple Juice that helps to reduce appearance of wrinkles and Night Jelly contains Carotene for skin renewal and regeneration.

Key Benefits:

Purer Skin EGF Day Beauty Jelly

  1. Radiant skin
  2. Wrinkle-free skin
  3. Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) encourages natural collagen production


Purer Skin EGF Night Beauty Jelly

  1. Soothe and relax skin
  2. Heal and restore skin
  3. Epidermal Growth Factor (EGF) encourages natural collagen production

My Aesthetics’ Journey with Nu-Reflections [Double Chin Concerns]

Hi's,
For many years I've been haunted by this dark truth regardless of my petite frame. Standing at 153cm weighing about nearly 43kg, I'm considerably small for my size... 

But, there an open secret that everyone knows; is call it the Dblchin (duh!)
Surviving with a short and receding chin is not easy, it affects greatly on both my appearance as well as my morale.
For example, I'm wary of to looking down at something afraid that someone will spot me with that extra lump of fat sticking out from the side (then maybe that someone won't ask for my number anymore),

I also have to arch my face forward for pictures, if not this will become my worse nightmare. 
 photo 4511_101021740519_3650653_n-1.jpg
Taken in 2002 when I was around 19 before I corrected my teeth and weighed around 37kg. 

Sorry I need to protect my friend's identity because we both look horrendous. You can see the layer of fats underneath my chin which is unbelievable for a girl of such weight.
My friend Ryan, from Night Owl Cinematics mentioned that if I send this photo in for casting, he will make sure I become famous for the wrong reason.*Kill me please*
But hey I'm sure I look like a chio last time, see how confident I used to flash my crooked teeth!


As I got older, my makeup skills improved tremendously (although still look somewhat buang here) but no matter how good it gets there are some things you just can't correct. 
 photo 191_12218060519_3578_n.jpg
This was taken around 2008, I was around the same weight but never grew taller. My teeth was still crooked until 2010.
No need to censor this person, is just my husband. If I look crappy, he as a lawfully wedded significant other shall go down the grave with me, 1 for all, all for 1!


OK *inhales deeply* 1 more to go.
Damn this is hard, looking at the compilation of ugly photos. 
 photo 2051_64753590519_4635_n.jpg
Taken 1 year apart during CNY,  I probably weigh around 39kg by then. 

 My chin over here looks somewhat improved because I accepted several aesthetic treatments but still you could spot a fair share of fold underneath and it looks receded.
I supposed I'm posing to look sexy but what say u? Please don't say I look like a pig ok, the truth hurts.
Not intending to censor my handsome companion here, people say we are worlds apart but I have nothing to hide, we are from the same mother.

This, you never see it coming.
My double chin runs deep, lets say it starts from a very young age.
 photo photo.jpg


Hearing my cries, fairy god mother Bianca from My Fat Pocket aka MFP came to my aid. Actually this isn't the first time Bianca introduced me to go for aesthetic treatment. I've previously received radio frequency from her source, I have to say my double chin really did improve but only for a very short span of time (like a month?!). This time round she was really nice again to ask if I wanted to take up an offer from Doctor Ivan Tan at Nu-Reflections AestheticsHub to receive a series of non-invasive procedures.

Of course I said yes to anything that could eliminate if not minimise my double chin.
So I went down for my first consultation to say hello to Dr Tan and get to know more about the procedures that I'll be receiving. Little did I know he wasn't just your regular aesthetic doctor, he contains a mixed of 'yoz, wassup, hi, ^5,' funny but serious, but still funny.
He is also very garang, will explain more in a bit.

We spoke about my concerns and addressed my troubled double chin, we also talked about other areas like my laughed lines, hindering mole at the side of my cheek, uneven face shape...blah blah.

So we ended our 1st session with a hell lot of options and here I'm, lying on the treatment bed for my 2nd session still not knowing what I'll be receiving. The anticipation makes me nervous and excited!
 photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_2_zps3a75fd75.jpg

I'm supposed to get my face cleansed and numb before seeing Dr Tan but before the therapist could get a chance to numb my face I was called in to see doctor. 
 photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_3_zps9b6c8a34.jpg

And so Doctor Tan took a look at me and said "Ok can lets start!"
Bianca and me are like "Huh? Start Simi?"
"Of course the fillers for your chin la!" giving me a wide grin.
 photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_7_zpsb6a6f132.jpg

Fillers is not all.
 To reduce the appearance of my double chin, Dr Tan decides to use 3 different treatment: 3D Ultra V-lift, Botox Treatment and of course the good ol' Fillers.

Dr Tan proceeds to use filler from Juvederm and injects 1and 1/2 syring into my chin area, the other 1/2 will let you know where it went in my subsequent post. 
 photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_4_zps846456e2.jpg

I was expecting the worst pain that could possibly happen but apparently Dr Tan's technique is so good it'll be a waste of time if I were to go through the numbing process. It took me less than 30 mins and my new chin is done! photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_8_zpsd0bd70de.jpg

Admiring myself intensely in the mirror. Oh whats new?!
Oh btw if you are thinking why is there a piece of shrink wrap right under my chin?
 That is the only area I was numbed for 3D Ultra V-lift, more on that on my later posts.
 photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_9_zpsbc695466.jpg

 photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_14_zps6ac9b917.jpg

With that my new chin is complete!
 photo mfphw_nureflections_dblchin_13_zps887752e0.jpg
Things to note:

Before Procedure
Remain calm, this way muscle will be less tense and it makes injection way lot easier. Ask for numbing cream if you are ultra afraid of pain, actually I'm too but without numbing works ok for me so I'm sure you'll do just fine! Is subjective though, so choose a doc you really trust!

During Procedure
Slight pinching can be felt during the injection of fillers but nothing more than an ant bite. If you experience further pain, stop your doctor immediately. Also do expect some pressure at the injected area because pressing is needed to mould the fillers into desirable shape.

After Procedure
Do not rest your hand onto the affected area for the next 7 days, because fillers are still forming into shape thus any additional pressure might cause the area to change slightly.
Also do expect some light bruising on the areas which are treated, they can last for a few days, mine lasted for 5.

Remember there is no downtime, cosmetics could be used even right after the treatment.  Fillers from Juvederm although temporary, it can last for 9months up to a year.

This are the results after 5 days:
My chin definitely looks sharper and less receded now, most of all the double chin is significantly  reduced! It shows up so well in photos, you really have to see it have to believe it!
 photo 1454568_617649921624902_442178710_n.jpg

Last but not least, a must watch documentary of me! lol.


I'm so grateful for having Dr Tan and Bianca in my beauty journey, do stay tune for part 2 and part 3 where I talk more about the various treatments I received from Nu-Reflections!

New! Biore Cleansing Cotton Sheets

Hello Dblchinis.
I love cleansing wipes, they are convenient and easy to use on the go.
I still remember Biore was the first in the market to launch their very own cleansing sheets and thereafter many other brands started follow suit. Since then I was already a die-hard fan the day Biore cleansing sheets set shores in our local drugstores.

Here I'm catching up with the New! and improved generation of Biore's sheets!
 photo DSC00001.jpg
There is so much to talk about the revamping of Biore wipes, but first let's take a look at the newly improved box. 

 photo DSC00002.jpg

Sealing performance is now made better with air tight tub, helping sheets containing the cleansing liquid to last for a longer period of time. My no.1 pet peeve towards all types of wipes; when sheets are as dry as the sahara desert. It totally irks to pull out a piece of wet wipe to find that is half dry, when it happens it causes unnecessary friction towards my skin and could led to premature wrinkles. 
 photo DSC00003.jpg

With Biore new and improved packaging, the air-tight container now not only keeps the wipes moist, the formula is also infused with a larger dose of liquid.
 photo DSC00004.jpg
New Biore Cleansing Cotton Sheets Contains 20% more cleansing oil as compared to the old packaging

With 20% more cleansing oil in each sheet, it makes removal process a breeze and even more hassle free. Less time is also needed to remove the makeup I had on my face as it minimizes repeated wiping by 50% on eye lashes, eye area and face!. Talk about even more speedy makeup removal that is especially useful during this festive period with all the late nights!

What I love most about the new Biore Cleansing Cotton Sheets is they are so hydrated it leaves my skin smooth and moist after cleaning as they now also contain Hydrating Beauty Essence.
It is not necessary to double cleanse your face as the beauty essence that is left behind acts as a part 'skincare' helping you to replace your usual regime. The sheets are also made of 100% natural fibre for a softer glide on skin, so it helps to minimize the harsh swiping action on your skin. 
 photo DSC00035.jpg

This is me purely on Biore Cleansing Cotton Sheets, look how speedy it manages to removes my makeup! My skin looks thoroughly cleansed here, not a speck of dirt is left on the 'after' photo. 
 photo DSC00039.jpg
Here's a tip for tough waterproof eye makeup. Place sheet onto eyes and hold for 5 seconds before gently wiping away the makeup.
I tried it for my eye makeup and it works very well!! :)


 photo ScreenShot2013-12-16at85334pm.png
Regular tub/Box $17.90
Refill pack $15.60
Handy Pack 10s $3.90

Do look out for the following at all major (Singapore) pharmacies and super/hypermarkets.

Last Minute Gift ideas? Check out my review from The Body Shop

This the season to be Jolly, Fa la la la la, la la la la!
 photo DSC00028.jpg
Merry Christmas everyone! How was your christmas so far?
Ok, technically is 1 day after Christmas but there are still 12 days to go, so here I'm featuring the latest fall makeup collection from The Body Shop!

From eyeshadows, illuminating powder to TBS latest lip colours, they drive me absolutely insane. The superb pigment quality and colour payoff is a more than a dust of christmas spirit, I would say it suits all festive occasion. For the love of it, you shall see why. 

Launching the latest colour palette from TBS is the 4-step smokey eyes in Smoky Plum and Smoky Brown respectively.
 photo DSC00029.jpg

Purple like I've mentioned many many times before, is the trending colour this season. Nothing could stop me from loving these awesome shades. 
The 4 colour quad provides everything from highlighting to contouring, I love bringing these around because it comes with 2 mini eyeshadow brushes; an angled brush (for winged out effect and lower lash line) and a regular eyeshadow applicator for the ease of use! And not forgetting the sizes are made so pint is cute!
 photo DSC00031.jpg
4-Step Smokey Eyes winter edition S$39.90 carries a tinge of pearl sheen, a darling to use for festive season. 

Since Brown smokey is the more commonly seen look I decided to create one with 4-step Smokey Eyes with Smoky Plum instead.
 photo TBSSmokeyPlum.jpg

 photo DSC00018.jpg

Shimmer powder is very useful for creating glow especially with when it comes to achieving nude looks. Some people use it all over the face as a illuminating powder but I prefer to highlight certain points of the face eg. cheek bones, T-zone, collar bone to give a 3-dimensional effect to the features.
However, if you have oily or greasy skin, I would recommend you to avoid this one. 
 photo DSC00038.jpg
The Body Shop New Special Edition Shimmer Bauble S$34.90 is the key to light up your face this festive season.


My favourite by far from TBS; The all over shimmer.
I use it on the hair, face, body for most of my clients! It immediately sparkle up the entire look~
Is the most easy-to-use makeup item by far, just a light spritz and my client is good to go! The particles so fine, all you see are specks of shinning beads glinting under the light.
The bottle is constructed so modern yet vintage with that spray puff my clients are always surprise to see me taking this out of my train case and can't helped to ask what is it! Now you know ;)
 photo DSC00040.jpg
The Body Shop The Sparkler winter edition S$39.90  is available in both Gold and Pink, try it out for yourself at your local TBS store!

When TBS sent me 2 Colour Crush lipsticks (130 and 200) I knew I had to get more of these, so I went to my local TBS to grab hold of another 3 sizzling colours for this season. 
 photo DSC00042.jpg

Out of the lot 240 is my pet colour because purple is just so 'in' this season. I love how luxuriously rich these colour give out, I must say is really rich and creamy. Guess I'll still be using this colour for the coming Chinese New Year too!
 photo DSC00045.jpg

We are still at the topic of winter trending colour, purple. So here goes, a purple eyeliner from TBS. 
 photo DSC00049.jpg
Unfortunately is not love at first sight, I don't really like the dull shade this pencil is made (feels more like a muddy black) and the colour comes out really light when I tried swatching them at the back of my hands. I might be wrong because I usually grow to love something after a while, but we'll see.
 photo DSC00051.jpg
The Body Shop Smokey Plum Eye Definer S$19.90 is definitely not my favourite item but if you do visit TBS, no harm checking it out, you might just carry a different opinion :)

We all know TBS is awesome with the festive packaging so here are some gift ideas that you can checkout at your local store if you haven't gotten a gift for your beloved wife, husband or friends you wish for them to smell a bit better!

Hope you like my review, have a great Christmas and a Happy New Year!!!
