Topshop Singapore

Popular British multi-national fashion retailer, Topshop has been a popular brand that I will always go to because I really love the petite range that they offers to short girls like me. We are always spoilt for selection because of the wide range of selection offered from casual (flattering jeans and jackets) to formal (blazers and dresses) and not forgetting accessories that we can pair with our outfit.

We used to need to visit a brick and mortar store in order for us to purchase our favourite pieces from Topshop Singapore but it's no longer the case now. Log into the internet, shop at the comfort of your home and just wait for the delivery to be made to you. :)

I have always been a fan of Topshop jeans and the skinny jeans here have definitely caught my eyes.

This sleeveless belted coat is definitely a keeper. I do not recall seeing many such pieces. If you think you can buy only clothings online, think again..... Check out the bags and shoes! Always love pairing boots with my outfit especially when I travel.

I have always been an advocate for online shopping for the simple reason of CONVENIENCE. It's just too tiring to get out of there, squeezing through the crowd, fighting for that item you want and in worst case scenario, getting there and not being able to buy what you want. With 30 days free returns and free delivery for purchases above $40, it's such an enjoyable shopping experience.

Soak in Korean Fashion with ZALORA

I have always been a fan of J-Drama when I was a teenager and as the years go by, the K-entertainment industry has boomed out of nowhere creating a hype both in the entertainment and fashion industry. Everyone wants that lipstick that was showed on this drama or that hairdo that was in that MTV, even Paris Baguette got so popular! For a while, I have friends trying to get hold of korean fashion clothings when on holiday to Seoul but the good news now is........ you can get your hands on korean fashion just by shopping over ZALORA!

I seriously love these culottes and bermudas, they look chic and so so comfortable! Price is super friendly to our pocket too. :)

Want to look more feminine? No problem there, these dresses comes in different styles that can definitely match the date that you want to.

I super love accessories from Korea. I personally think they look so cute and yet matchable to most outfits that I 'swept' quite a lot of them when I can! If you especially love colourful and statement-styled accessories, you must check out their accessories.

Don't forget to dress up your man like one of your favourite korean star as well!!! Check out the Mens' Fashion! There are tees and outerwears that are suitable to Singapore weather and yet not compromising the look of korean fashion.

I really like the leather shoes with neon sole below. Such a statement look just by adding that subtle pop of colour to a pair of black shoes.

Look no further if you have already seen items that caught your eyes........ Check out Korean Fashion at ZALORA for more items. You never know which korean star you will look like! :)

Don't we all just want to let our hair down and unwind and relax in style? It's really nice to know that Lola Skye Collection at ZALORA fits what I am looking for.

Looking at the banner on the site and I already fallen in love with this brand. It looks dreamy and girly! Here are some of my personal recommendations from Lola Skye Collection!

If you are looking for that simple black dress that can bring you to a nice date with significant other followed by a romantic dinner, why not consider this black lace insert dress? The lace just gives this simple black dress a subtle sexiness.

Burberry Light Glow Blush in Blossom

It has been a while since I last reviewed a product and today’s review is not one of those in a new collection that is screaming ‘COLLECT ME’. It happen to be a blush that I have been thinking for a while but never got down to purchasing it. It is none other than Burberry Light Glow Blush in Blossom.

I’m sure many beauty fanatics out there are very familiar with the buttery smooth texture of Burberry Beauty blushes and Blossom is no exception. Do you know that if you were to purchase Blossom blush now, it actually look more pinkish than the original one? Yes, this is true…….. The SA was telling me that the original Blossom blush looks more orangey while the new batch of Blossom look more pinkish. By looking at the tester Blossom blush at the counter vs the new Blossom blush, it certainly is the case. It would be nice if I am able to do the swatch compare side by side.

Looking at the swatch of Blossom blush, it is a beautiful coral pink shade which is quite pigmented. A gentle tap of my MAC 129 brush on the pan and I already manage to pick up a fair bit of product. I didn’t even have to re-apply the blush on my cheeks to make it stand out stronger!

For reference, I have included the swatches of my other Burberry Light Glow blushes in the swatch below. Missing in action is Earthly, which for some reason I forgot to include it in, haha. Blossom certainly looks like a lighter version of Coral Pink, in my opinion.

At $61 per pan, Burberry Beauty blush are worthy investment in my opinion, both in terms of texture and quality/ Most beauty fanatics I know have at least a few of them. You can never stop at 1!

Buy RIVER ISLAND Online with ZALORA

Chinese New Year is coming once again and I absolutely love that I get more excuses to buy new clothings and accessories for Chinese New Year so as to get good luck. I bet most people think likewise so why not head over to ZALORA and purchase River Island Singapore online.

For you out there who are not familiar with River Island, River Island is a high street fashion brand set up by the Lewis brothers in London in 1948. With more than 60 years of history, River Island is still a family owned business to the Lewis family. This is impressive!

In case you are not aware, there is a River Island sale going on at ZALORA which you absolutely cannot miss, especially if you have yet to get your Chinese New Year clothings and accessories!

I really like how some items are carefully selected to be classified under CNY Collection. This dress in particular caught my eye and it's on sale!!

In case your man needs some CNY shopping as well, just head over to the Men's Section and there is a good collection of casual to smart casual clothings and accessories that will definitely be suitable for him to look and feel good for the year of the Goat. :)

I know of shoppers out there who are usually impatient and really want their items to be in their hands within the shortest possible time. You will be glad to know that most items are expected to be delivered to your door step within 1 - 3 working days! Furthermore, delivery is FREE as long as your purchase is above $40. With the 30 days free return period, you need not worry about purchasing the wrong or unsuitable items and wasting your money. Let's get ready to dress up for this Chinese New Year, shall we?? :)

Review of Pentaxyl™

It has been a a while since I went about reviewing anything and today I finally got down to reviewing a new product which is my absolute new love. This is none other than Pentaxyl™!!

Many would be asking, what is this product???

Extracted from site:-

Pentaxyl is a proprietary blend of herbal extracts and the breakthrough formulas of the Matrixyl® Complex and Argireline, which reduce the appearance of wrinkles and furrows, help skin look thicker and firmer, and gives the skin a youthful glow. Pentaxyl has harnessed the age-fighting power of "bio-peptide" technology, with three age-fighting bio-peptides (1) Pamitoyl-Pentapeptide-3 (Matrixyl) (2) Palmitoyl Oligopeptide (3) Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 (Argireline). Peptides are a low molecular weight amino acid group that are building blocks of proteins that make up plants and animals. Palmitoyl_Pentapeptide-3 was discovered at National Institute of Health.

Pentaxyl may temporarily reduce the appearance of stretch marks. Skin will take on a more youthful appearance. While nothing can rewind time, Pentaxyl has been shown to support a beautiful, resilient, flawless look by fighting against the visible signs of ageing.

Benefits:-

• Works on both the epidermis and the dermis
• Contains three peptide formulas
• Reduces the appearance of wrinkles and furrows (especially in the brow, forehead and eye areas)
• Promotes the look of skin firmness and thickness
• Reduces skin discolourations and increases hydration
• Supports smooth skin texture and colour
• Helps minimise the appearance of stretch marks

Pentaxyl™ is a light-weight non greasy cream and I used a pea-size for my whole face (as I have combination skin and would like to go easy initially).

We are encourage to use circular motion to massage in Pentaxyl™ into our skin to allow the cream to be properly absorbed by the skin as well as promote blood circulation. I love the minty after-feel after applying Pentaxyl™!

Top to bottom: Gently massaging into skin, Pentaxyl™ being absorbed into skin

So you might be wondering now, what happen to me that made me love this product??? Let's take a look at my naked face taken in Dec 2014, shall we?

You can see from the picture above that I have deep laugh line on the right side of my face. And for whatever reason, it is more obvious and deeper than my left face. So I decided to try Pentaxyl™ on my right laugh line, and massaging any residue into the rest of the face.

I kept to my usual skincare routine of cleansing, toning and moisturising. Without changing any products in my skincare regime, I only added Pentaxyl™ to apply after the toner and before moisturiser. As a start, I experience a few pimples popping out but they went off after a week and I haven't had any breakouts after which. I interpreted this as my skin trying to get used to the new product.

Even though it is encouraged to use Pentaxyl™ for both day and night, I decided to just stick with applying Pentaxyl™ during the night for my skin to get more norishment and repair through the night.

Honestly it did not occur to me to see obvious effects as I believe skincare products always need time to work their magic. But yesterday I noticed my laugh lines on the right face seem to be looking lighter and quickly asked my hubby for confirmation. He agreed!!! I decided to take a picture again and do a side by side comparison below.

From the picture above, I can see that my right laugh line is indeed lighter!!! I am really glad because I have been wondering what I can do to lighten these lines for the longest time, especially when I am getting older everyday. What makes me so convinced that Pentaxyl™ works is because the improvement can be seen over a period of 1 month and me only applying it during the night (instead of both day and night).

In case you are wondering Pentaxyl™ must be super expensive to be effective, you will be pleasantly surprised that it is only $106.75 for 118ml. This is totally affordable in today's market considering the price of another similar product from Strivectin-SD is already double!

I purchased this wonderful product from this site, which you can go check it out. However, should you want to be a money savvy shopper to get some cashback from your purchase, do drop me a comment with your email address.

You have finally reach the end of my review post and I hope Pentaxyl™ is able to help you like how it helped me!
