Sponsored Review Recently, I was introduced to a beauty brand that is committed to offer makeup that is free of parabens, SLES, mineral oil and allergenic fragrances. Yay! And here’s to a double yay – they are against animal testing too! The freshness and potency of their products are maintained using anti-microbial spices and herbs such as Wasabi, Radish and Ginger to replace harmful preservatives and chemicals. It is possibly the greatest thing since sliced bread. Click to read all about it! And the beauty brand I was referring to is Swiss cosmeceutical skin care and makeup line – Enavose . Launched in Singapore in 2011, Enavose has since garnered several beauty skincare awards for its stellar made-in-Switzerland products. This June, Enavose is delighted to introduce in stores a modern range of makeup that is bound to make a bold statement. This range of iconic colour collection is an expression of the most imaginative textures, hues and formulas. Full of living skin elements, Enavose’s new range of colour cosmetics cares for the skin – a complement to its naturally-oriented skincare collection infused with eco-certified organic natural active ingredients, super-fruit actives, vitamins, and Swiss Glacial Water. And so I went absolutely bananas when Enavose sent me their star product – Swiss Glacial Loose Powder SPF 15 to try. The powder arrived in a nifty package of pretty ribbons, gorgeous tulle fabric and a cute azure card that says ‘Juliana, Keep Calm and Stay Cool.‘ Adorbs! Besides its handy-dandy packaging, here’s why the Enavose Swiss Glacial Loose Powder SPF 15 is gonna be a hot fave – 24 Hours Hydra-Release The encapsulated beads of Swiss Glacial Water, Hydra-Spheres-Release, gradually pop to maintain deep hydration levels from within. Skin’s moisture barrier remains boosted for 24 hours. Ultra Cooling Sensation Provides a crisp, cooling sensation to keep skin feeling fresh and comfortable. Perfect for days when heat fatigue strikes. Reflective Effect Reflective mineral pigments diffuse light to balance out irregular surfaces and cover pores. Attain a look of elusive dewiness that glows with luminosity. Natural Lightweight Coverage Completely free of oil, this lightweight powder provides sheer, translucent coverage for a natural finish. Perfect for days when you want to be a barefaced beauty, or for use as a finishing powder. No fuss, no hassle. Their universal shade, Nude Glow flatters and suits every skin tone. And here’s what I think of the Enavose Swiss Glacial Loose Powder SPF 15… I used to touch up my makeup with foundation but the result is a cakey face look. So I’m all for loose powders these days as they’re light and less pore-clogging. However, most loose powder jars are too bulky for my small purses and too inconvenient to use in public. Usually, I’ll have to shake the jar to load the powder on the sifter tray but the result is always a huge mess because more powder will get on my bag and clothes than on my face. Enavose eliminates this problem by installing a huge powder puff on its lid that leaves a small gap between the sifter and the puff. This allows an appropriate amount of powder to come through the sifter, preventing wastage in the process. Brilliant! Unlike most loose powders that produce a matte finish, the reflective mineral pigments of the powder imparts a satin finish instead. The face looks radiant and dewy even after several layers of powder. Here’s my face with only L’Oreal’s Lucent Magique Light Infusing Liquid Foundation. Then I pat on some Enavose Swiss Glacial Loose Powder! Here’s the final look! Love the velvety look. I thought I looked like I had highlighter on. Haha! However, I have to warn you that the reflective mineral pigments is pretty prominent and produces a sparkly look when applied. Not that it’s a bad thing but if you’re going for clean and au naturel look, you might find it too glittery for your liking. Even though my face looked shiny and oily after application, I thought it felt pretty smooth like I’m touching silk. And that texture lasted for a couple of hours. That’s pretty amazing for my oily skin. For its clever packaging, natural ingredients, hydrating and sunscreen qualities, 4.5 Honeyz crowns! The Enavose Swiss Glacial Loose Powder SPF 15 (5g) retails at SGD39.50 at the Enavose Concept Store at Suntec City Mall, Tower 3 #02-079/081 and on their online store at Enavose.com .

I’ve been nominated as a finalist in the Singapore Blog Awards'(SBA) Beauty and Vlog categories! *prances around* As mentioned in my Facebook posts, I wouldn’t have been able produce those photos and videos, write the reviews, maintain a beauty encyclopedia and get my craft on without your unwavering love (e.g. emails, FB likes and the increasing views). And of course, the biggest and sloppiest kisses go to my supportive family who’ve partaken in all my blog activites i.e. Spa parties, vote contests and this latest video I made for the SBA’s vlog contest (see above). 😀 Click to read all about my inspiration behind this video and also for my thoughts on what it’s like to be a full-time blogger. 🙂 Last year, I left my job to become a full time blogger. I was very relieved to have left the rat race but I was shocked to realize that I was about to enter a super rat race which was even more competitive. Because instead of vying for that promotion with a small group of people, I’m now going up against writers from all over the world for readership and attention in cyber space. I read somewhere that the blogosphere is like Hollywood and blogging is like acting. And I concur with that totally. Everyday, there are many up-and-coming bloggers who begin blogging and want to make their mark in the blogging scene. Now if you’ve been blogging for some time, you’ll know that blogging is not all fun and glamorous. Not everyone can gain 100,000 views and land juicy sponsorship deals overnight. A lot of hard work and time is involved to produce posts that are deemed good and worth reading. To concentrate on blogging full time, I lost precious family and friends time, some good job opportunities and a stable income. But in return, I’ve learnt so much about the path to success, learnt how much my family and friends mean to me and also forged many great friendships with readers, fellow bloggers and brands. To receive the nominations from the Singapore Blog Awards is truly gratifying. It made all the sacrifices worth it and this journey a more meaningful one. I was also very glad that my family came out to support me by participating in my video blog entry for the Singapore Blog Awards. The theme of the video for the Best Vlog category is something/someone from/about the 60’s that inspires you. I’ve always been very inspired by grandma’s fighting spirit and her ability to juggle the demands of work and family at the same time. She’s also always been there for me and will always be my best roommate, friend and grandmother. So I decided to make a video about my lovable grandma who’s also to me – the biggest icon in the 1960s. 😛 I thought this is also a great opportunity to get the family together, record a family video and to remember grandma’s legacy. Watch the full story by scrolling back up! Special thanks to everyone who made time to film the video – my parents, granddad, uncles, aunties, cousins, family friends and of course my good friend Yong Thye who directed and shot the clips. Check out the rest of Yong Thye’s works at Honeyz Paint House and SimVideo – Wedding Videography . 😛 And to you Honeyz Belles! I wouldn’t have been able to receive the nominations without you. Thank you sooooo much for the continued support. 😀 If you like my new video and my posts on this blog so far, please vote for me! I’ve never won anything for my work and this award would certainly give me the biggest validation should I win it. So please show me all your love by voting for me here – Best Vlog Simply go to http://sgblogawards.omy.sg/2013/category/?cat=vlog , sign up for an omy.sg account and click on the photo to vote.

I’ve officially crossed the ‘late 20s’ mark a few weeks ago which also means the red alert for wrinkles is now full on. Anti-aging creams are no longer optional but mandatory in my beauty regimen. *shrieks* However, I have to be really mindful with this one as my skin is not the most receptive to rich creams and serums. These products tend to suffocate the skin, causing congestion and zits. I need something naturally formulated, that is free of mineral oil, glycol, parabens, etc. And the great news is – I think I may have found the best anti-aging candidate for my skin at the recent Origins Blogger Workshop. Click to find out how you can maintain your youth with their new raspberry plant stem cell technology. 🙂 Origins’ new Plantscription range and Anogeissus tree back extract Inspired by Hippocrates’ ‘Let your food be your medicine and your medicine your food‘, Origins’ new Plantscription range represents state-of- the-art anti-aging technology that promises to produce firmer and more resilient, youthful-looking complexion. This new range contains Anogeissus tree bark extract that possesses the ability to protect collagen and boost skin’s natural production levels of a glycoprotein called fibrillin. And the result? Younger looking skin of course! 😀 Origins Plantscription Antti-aging serum I’ve always been very impressed with Origins’ natural and effective products as well as their eco-friendly manufacturing practices. So accepting this blogger workshop invitation was certainly a no-brainer. Here are some of the highlights from the workshop. That’s the pretty Fang Wen, Marketing and PR Executive of Origins presenting the goodness of the Plantscription products. The Origins beauty therapists demonstrating the optimal way of cleansing and applying the Origins products. I volunteered myself for the demonstration too! Besides giving me a relaxing mini facial, my Origins therapist also extended some beauty advice. She recommended warming the cream by massaging it with your hands before smoothing it on the face. This will allow better absorption of the cream. Thanks for the tip! And here’s my face before the treatment. Here’s after. 🙂 To be honest, I don’t think there was a visible difference but mentally I felt more refreshed and energized. The fruity scent of the products perked me up instantly. I was also invited to do a video review of my experience. You can watch the video coverage of the workshop here . Good news! You could also try the mini facial too! Simply request for it at any Origins counter . The workshop was a resounding success. We were not only enlightened with beauty knowledge, we also got to bring home the new  Plantscription Anti-Aging Cream . Besides the anti-aging star ingredient, African Anogeissus Tree Bark that is present in all Plantscription products, the Plantscription Anti-Aging Cream contains another new ingredient from nature, Raspberry Plant Stem Cells. Inspired by the science of cellular plant cell regeneration, each jar of Plantscription Anti-Aging Cream contains 300,000 Raspberry Plant Stem Cells to revitalise aging skin and reduce wrinkles. Among hundreds of ingredients put under study, only a handful made it to Origins high-performance formula. The Raspberry Plant Stem Cells used in the Plantscription Anti-Aging Cream were extracted from a specific strain found from a single garden in Dei Lombardi, near Avellino on the Apennine Mountains in Italy. This strain was found to contain the highest level of biologically active compound. Plantscription Anti-Aging Cream is safe and effective for all skin types and is a perfect complement to Plantscription Anti-Aging Serum, which has been the No. 1 Top Seller of Origins. Benefits:  Helps address 4 major signs of skin aging by: – Visibly reducing  lines and wrinkles – Lifting – Smoothing texture – Reviving bounce Key Ingredients: Raspberry Plant Stem Cell Technology – renew and revitalise aging skin, reduce wrinkles African Anogeissus tree bark extract – protect collagen and help boost skin’s natural production levels of a glycoprotein called fibrillin What I thought about the Origins Plantscription Anti-Aging Cream… I smell nature everytime I open the lid of the tub. The fragrance is soft and alluring. And the best part is, the lightweight cream absorbs into the skin pretty quickly, leaving a smooth and silky finish. Apply only a dollop of the anti-aging cream each time. Anything more and you may create a sticky finish. I do not use the cream on my entire face but only on the problematic areas like the nasolabial folds and neck. Of course, my lines haven’t vanished completely but I thought they looked softened and less visible. I’ve been using it for three weeks and I haven’t noticed any major breakouts so I guess I’ll continue to use it until the day I need botox. 😛 The cream retails at SGD110 for 50ml which I thought is rather pricey. But for its naturally derived ingredients and rejuvenating properties, I guess it still deserves 4 Honeyz crowns. The full range of Origins Plantscription anti-aging products are now available at all Origins counters – – Isetan Scotts – Robinsons Raffles City – Metro Paragon – Robinsons Centerpoint – Tangs Vivo City The prices range from SGD78 to SGD118 for the Origins Plantscription anti-aging products. Origins Plantscription Anti-aging Face cream : SGD110 for 50ml Origins Plantscription Anti-aging serum : SGD118 for 30ml  (In addition to Anogeissus Tree Bark, this serum is formulated with Siegesbeckia and Rosemary Extract, which help rebuild natural collagen and elastin and help visibly decrease depth and length of lines and wrinkles and strengthen skin. Origins Plantscription Anti-aging eye cream : SGD78 for 15ml  An eye cream that is suitable for dry eye area. Addressed 4 major signs of aging including crow’s feet, cross-hatching lines, under eye troughs and lid crepiness, while also helping to visibly lift and firm the eye area. Origins Plantscription™ Anti-aging eye treatment : SGD78 for 15ml  A lightweight version of the eye cream which also adressed 4 major signs of aging as eye cream Thank you Origins Singapore , Skincare DB and fellow bloggers ( Elva , Rusty and Michelle ) for an amazing morning of beauty and banter!

I never thought I would attend a horse racing event, place a wager on a horse race and even better, win it. But I did. All on one night! It all happened when I was invited by the Singapore Turf Club to their Queen Elizabeth II Cup that took place last month. Read this quick recount of my adventures at this prestigious annual horse race. 🙂 In 1972, the Singapore Turf Club introduced the Queen Elizabeth II cup when Her Royal Highness Queen Elizabeth II paid her first visit to the Bukit Timah Racecourse. Since then, it has become a tradition of the turf club to celebrate this memorable visit in pomp and pageantry fashion with the organization of the glamorous Queen Elizabeth II Cup race (QEII Cup) every year. This year, the event was held on April 26 at the Marquee of the Singapore Racecourse and ‘your humble blogger’ was invited! 😀 I was also given a guest invitation, so I asked B along. 😀 The theme is Victorian Affair so I wore a cocktail dress and adorned it with a cute fascinator that was made by the lovely folks of the Singapore Turf Club. B also wore a hat to go with the theme. Looking suave! Haha! And we’re ready to rock and roll! Upon arrival, we received a warm welcome by some Victorian costume minglers who graciously agreed to take not one but several photos with us. I don’t wanna flood this page with too many photos so only showing the best one (below). 😛 Jessie, Head of the turf club’s Digital Media department kindly offered to take us on a tour around the club before dinner commenced. Then we went to the Marquee (where the party was held) and was immediately greeted by a flamboyant and glamorously dressed crowd. Think The Great Gatsby. From left to right: Regina, Karen, Jessie, Janice, Vikki and me Certainly felt like celebrities. 😛 Paparazzi galore! It was the turf club’s first Ladies’ Night of the Year so not only did we ladies get to relish a sumptuous buffet spread, we were also generously treated to delicious cocktails, professional henna services and pampering manicures. This was done in less than 5 minutes! With the talented artist of my henna tattoo. 🙂 On top of beauty services, there was also a fashion bazaar where ladies could satisfy their shopping urge. The activities do not end here. We were also entertained by belly dancing performances and contestants of the Best Hat on Track contest who wowed us with their catwalk moves. While we were sipping fine wine and enjoying the host of exciting activities organized by the Singapore Turf Club, the boys on the racetrack were contesting for a whopping SGD350,000 prize money. Jessie made sure we were not left out of the action and excitement, so she brought us to the parade ring where we could get up close but not so personal with the race horses. The reason why we can’t get too close is because they might kick us with their back feet should they feel threatened or agitated. So here we are, 2 metres away from the giant ponies. Then I spotted No. 6 winking at me! Jessie said it was a sign – Tim (No.6) was trying to ‘establish a connection’ with me. So she suggested that I bet on him later. And so I did! That’s us with Tim in the background. We watched as the jockeys led their winning horses to the racetrack. Bye horsies! Good luck! Especially you Tim! 😛 Jessie brought us to an exclusive spot where we had an unobstructed view of the starting barrier. And let the race begin! And Tim came up trumps! Yay! And so did I, in a way. Won 22 bucks! Guess what’s this for? It is a weighing scale for the riders. So why do we need to weigh them? According to Jessie, this is to ensure there’s no discrepancy in their weights before the race and after to prevent cheating. So riders are required to ‘weigh out’ before the race which involves standing with full riding equipment, on the digital scale in front of the Clerk of the Scales. After the race, riders ‘weigh in’ to identify any weight differences. And should there be a difference, the Clerk of the Scales will lodge an objection with the Stewards, who will automatically hold an enquiry. The horse involved will be disqualified. Here we are with star jockey Joao Moreira. He was the jockey who rode on Tim and ultimately, led him to victory. Kudos to you Joao! Finally, please allow me to sum up the night’s eye-opening and fun-filled activities with this video. 🙂 For more exclusive content on the latest events, product reviews, style books or to receive the full gamut of privileges as Honeyz readers, like my Facebook Page at www.facebook.com/ilovebunny.net Your road to a sparkling lifestyle begins here .

Sponsored Review Summer is dancing around the corner again! And I can’t wait to kick off the warm season with some beach frolicking, languid sunbathing and of course retail therapy! This June, not only do I wanna look good, I wanna smell good! So retail therapy includes shopping for a gorgeous fragrance that’s perfect for summer days. And guess what? I think I already found it. Built around a delicate rose accord, this sweet fragrance accentuates both your femininity and fun personality. Click for your fine touch of elegance too. 🙂 And the eau de toilette that found its way to my vanity table is none other than Escada’s Especially Escada! Especially Escada is the gorgeous new fragrance from the House of Escada; a luxurious and feminine scent inspired by the spirit of todays joyful, spontaneous and glamorous woman who likes to let her emotions run wild! Launched globally on August 2011, Especially Escada is here to stay as it joins the ranks of Escada’s sophisticated range of classic fragrances. The fragrance opens with an intense and sparkling top note of pear that combines with the sweet, exotic and musky notes of Ambrette seeds. Together they create a burst of sparkling freshness and the idyllic introduction to the all-important heart accord. At the heart of the fragrance lies the unique scent of the opulent Bulgarian Rose, which adds depth as well as a distinctive character to the perfume. One of the most luxurious rose species in the world, the Bulgarian rose is uniquely collected in the early hours of the morning to best capture its sophisticated and classic aroma. Delicate notes of Ylang Ylang work with the rose to create a soft, floral and intensely feminine appeal. The floral bouquet at the heart radiates a fresh and natural aura of positivity, the uplifting ingredients are synonymous with joy unfolding. What I think of it… I’ve been using this for three days now and I absolutely love its sweet undertones, amazing sillage and long lasting power. I’m also a huge fan of the sensual smell of roses so I was delighted when I realized the rose scent of the fragrance comes out pretty strongly. The packaging is also a winner. The scent is nicely contained in an elegant frosted glass bottle that is sealed with a polished double E logo gold lid. Well, you can never go wrong with pink and gold. The floral and light musky notes of the fragrance is actually inspired by the glistening scent of morning dew on a sparkling rose which makes it perfect for morning and day, for work and for play. These days, I can’t live home without my Especially Escada fragrance. It has certainly become an integral part of my beauty routine. For its fresh and delicate scent and the to-die-for sexy packaging, 4.5 Honeyz crowns! Especially Escada is available in Sephora stores nationwide at the following prices, EDT 30ml SGD73 EDT 50ml SGD102 EDT 75ml SGD127 Have you tried Especially Escada too? I wanna know what you think!

Top Japanese skincare brand, V 10 Plus just held their very first bloggers event last month and my beauty encyclopedia, Honeyz Cube was granted the great opportunity of celebrating this significant milestone as their marketing partner. Whee! The best part was – not only was I there for work (inviting and hosting the bloggers), I also got to enjoy a delectable spread of pastries, an invigorating V10 Plus facial and a bag of V 10 Plus goodies. 😀 Click here for the full story! The event was held at the luxurious Spa Symphony that was founded by national swimmer Leslie Kwok (also dubbed Most Beautiful Man here ). 😛 The spa, albeit its confusing walkways, was huge and inviting. The V 10 Plus Star Bloggers Event took place in two of Spa Symphony’s lavish facial treatment rooms. The founder of V 10 Plus, Akiko Yokota, commenced the event with a thorough introduction of the brand and its star products – V 10 Plus Serums, emphasizing that V 10 Plus products are free of parabens, artificial colors, mineral oil and chemical fragrance and suitable for all skin types including sensitive skin. You can read all about their products and ingredients here . Up-close, Akiko san’s skin looks flawless! Smooth, fair, freckle-free and blackheads-free. The V 10 Plus serums did wonders for her skin. Then it was my turn to experience the V 10 Plus miracle. Due to time and space constraints, the facial consisted of only three steps – clean, exfoliate and moisturize. The facial therapist exfoliated my face with V 10 Plus’ peeling gel and white flakes (as seen below) were consequently formed. Full review of the peeling gel here . Then she finished off with gentle massages using V 10 Plus’ most lusted-after product – Hyaluronic Acid Serum (SGD128, 30ml). I love the gel-like consistency of the serum. I was so glad that it wasn’t too oily or sticky for my blemish prone complexion. The lightweight serum seeped into my skin shortly after application leaving it soft, smooth and calmed. I had a few angry red spots before the facial and the redness was significantly reduced after the facial. Its gentle formulation proved to be a killer! 4 Honeyz crowns! This is me with the friendly therapist, Kelly from Spa Symphony. V 10 Plus and Spa Symphony made sure we didn’t go home empty-handed. Not only were we given a bag of beauty goodies (see below), we were also invited back to Spa Symphony for a full facial! From left to right: V 10 Plus Water Base Peeling Gel and Hyaluronic Acid Serum That’s not all I tell you! V 10 Plus has also offered to send one of us to Hong Kong this November for the exclusive Cosmoprof Asia Beauty Exhibition Fair!!! :O To win the golden ticket, our photos will have to garner the most likes on V 10 Plus’ Facebook Page .

Last week, I visited London and Paris – the fashion lands that inarguably never fail to produce ubiquitous but timeless fashion trends. And since I’m in the ultimate fashion hub, I can’t let my inner fashionista down. I brought at least 20 different apparels – jackets, coats, skirts, pants and tops to make sure I always look modish and camera-ready. Haha! And as title of the blog suggests, this post archives some of my most favorite outfits from the trip. Now click for the fashion rundown! On my first day in Paris, I opted for a fun and young look to go with my joyful vacation mood. 😛 Cardigan: Loaves.com Scarf: M)phosis Skirt: Zara Watch: Rolex Shoes: From Kyoto, Japan Then layered the outfit with a spring coat (Burberry) when it got colder in the evening. On the second day of the trip, I was heading to the outskirts of Paris so I wore pants for more warmth and comfort. Also glitz up the ensemble with a gold tiger print blazer.
