A New Me : No Downtime No Surgical By Freezing Your Fats + Rejuvenating Facial
OK, so I was done with my exams
Like finally . . .
It is a month of Projects, Practical and Theory exams
Yes . . .
Just a wee bit
And I booked myself with an Aesthetic Clinic
And fancy them to discharge me as they cannot help me with my skin
They will access my medical health and history as well as calculating my body's BMI and nutritional needs
They will then recommend suitable weight management program to help me keep my weight off.
And
They actually teach me how to calculate calories, advising me what physical exercise or activities I can engage in
So it is NOT like those typical slimming salons where you are FAT and UGLY everywhere
And you will be insulted if you do not take up their few thousands package.
Doctor Soh of HealthSprings is very friendly, honest and reliable.
She does not promise me anything when I first consulted her and she does not push me any products or package.
Awesome? Yea . . .
Anyway, I called up the clinic about their Lipocryo Treatment
It works by cooling unwanted fats without surgery or downtime.
And I am curious.
Most, if not all, slimming creams or salons will always want to burn our unwanted fats away.
And this is my first time Cooling My UNWANTED FATS AWAY
The therapist who attended to me had my thickness of fats measured
She then applied a layer of cooling gel on my tummy and
Had me sit up and placed something like a vacuum cleaner to suck my fats
But not long after, it is really cooling and comfortable
And I got to rest on the bed.
And boy was my tired skin being pampered.
The therapist without even me saying, mentioned that my skin look dehydrated, tired and dull
And I agreed with her totally.
My skin was awfully burnt out from the past few weeks of researching and studying.
I let myself loose.
From what I can remember, the steps are as follows:
* Cleanse
* Scrub
* Diamond Polish
* Steam
* Extraction
* Massage
* Ultra Sound
* Mask
I was pretty excited as the clinic claims that I would see instantaneous differences
I was also worried and anxious as I would always look red and ugly after a facial
Fingers crossed.
.
.
.
.
.
I believe some of you had already seen my RAW face from my face book
I am shocked with the results.
My face is NOT in the least bit red, and in fact, my face is super fairer, clearer and hydrated.
I can feel that my skin is more supple, plumped up with no visible pores.
And my broken capillaries seems fainter.
The other Dermatologist had me brainwashed that my skin is a Goner, cannot be salvaged anymore.
It has been about a week
And my skin is still soft, hydrated and supple.
Neither does my skin reddens easily under the sun, the light or even anything.
I went out for an Event just yesterday evening without makeup, only eyeliner
And people thought I had changed my foundation, or BB cream or powder.
I had them touched and rubbed my face if they want to
No powder Nothing.
I am so happy and satisfied with the magic Dr Soh had worked on my skin
I am not sure how long the clarity can maintain but I am sure to do my best to upkeep the clarity.
Like finally . . .
It is a month of Projects, Practical and Theory exams
I simply cannot devote the month of July to pure research and studying
because
*
*
*
*
*
It is MY BIRTHDAY !!!
So . . . I decided to Pamper myself a Wee . . . Bit Yes . . .
Just a wee bit
And I booked myself with an Aesthetic Clinic
I have done extensive googling and forum-ing before I decided to land myself with HealthSprings
They have received quite a number of awards from Woman's Weekly and Simply Her
And I trust Aesthetic Clinic than commercial salon.
Well, I am not being biased
But
At least Aesthetic Clinic is headed by Doctor and is definitely more safe since they are registered with MOH
Back to myself
It is always my Dream my Wish or rather my WANT
to have a not-so-sensitive skin which does not redden easily under light, sunlight or spot light
I have been seeing several dermatologist including those well known and famous in the industry
And fancy them to discharge me as they cannot help me with my skin
I was like . . . OK . . . so I have to live with it
And since then, I do not step into any other clinics as I have lost faith or rather, resign myself to fate
So, the next on my To-Do list is to flatten or rather tone my tummy.
Yes,
You might think I look alright
BUT
You are wrong.
I know how to disguise my flaws, my weakness using Colors & Styles
Hence you cannot really see my bulging tummy
Anyway who would love to showcase or parade around with their not-so-perfect figure yea?
I have tried slimming teas, replacement diets, or even wraps or crunches or sit-ups
FAILED
So since July is my birthday month
I decided to take up Slimming Package to keep my tummy in check
And having read from May issue of Woman's Weekly
I decided to take the plunge with
They will access my medical health and history as well as calculating my body's BMI and nutritional needs
They will then recommend suitable weight management program to help me keep my weight off.
And
They actually teach me how to calculate calories, advising me what physical exercise or activities I can engage in

The therapist who attended to me had my thickness of fats measured

Had me sit up and placed something like a vacuum cleaner to suck my fats
This is how the machine looks like
Initially it felt like a suction and I felt a inch of pain like somebody pinching my tummy But not long after, it is really cooling and comfortable
And I got to rest on the bed.
Side view of my tummy
Front View
After the treatment
In case you babes wonder why do I have all these shots of Before and After
And if I am being sponsored and biased of my reviews
Then I am afraid to disappoint you.
HealthSprings keep a photographic documenation of their patients' Before and After and for every review
I had to ask them for the photos so that I can keep an online journal of my slimming journey
Anyway, back to my tummy which is more important
There is redness on my tummy which is being sucked

There is redness on my tummy which is being sucked
but I do not feel any pain or sore or numbness as some other patients might experienced.
*cross my fingers and thank god*
I can feel that my tummy fats are softer, and more loosen
Inch lost, I am not too sure as yet as the result can only be visible about after 15 days and more apparent after a month
The whole session is about 30-45 minutes and while I was resting, I had my Rejuvenating Facial And boy was my tired skin being pampered.

I am still keeping my fingers cross to how much inch I can lost from LipoCryo
And I will keep you babes updated after a month.
I am looking forward to a NEW me and a NEW life
Having me to walk out in the street, makeup-less and ditching away those black baggy pants or dress.

Avoid Leaving Lipsticks on Your Wine Glass
Ever had such embarrassing moments where you will leave your lip gloss or lipstick stains on your glass?
I hate it loads and hence will never ever apply colored lip gloss
Just a coat of lip balm or transparent lip gloss
What my other girlfriends would do is to use a straw
But then again, they would also leave stains on the straw which is still unsightly
Then some would say use Matt lipsticks
But Matt lipsticks will still leave a wee bit of stain regardless what
And even then, it is very drying for lips
Then some people would say, foundation, lipstick, blot etc
These do not work exactly
Would you go without lip gloss?
And lip gloss because of its high shine, will come off easily too
So
.
.
.
.
.
If I share with you, that there is a lip gloss which stays
Lip gloss which is lasting and waterproof
Would you be amazed and surprised?
Unbelievable?
Make Up For Ever really has such range
Aqua Rouge Lipstick is awfully Long Lasting and Water Proof
Not only is the color Long Lasting
The Glossy High Shine Top Coat is Long Lasting and Water Proof as well
I am Shocked
Cox
I have never ever hear of Water Proof Lasting Lip Gloss
This is the range of Aqua Rouge
The colors are pretty isn't it?
Very wearable and easy to carry off
Let's put Aqua Rouge to the test
See how pigmented and glossy Aqua Rouge is
I cannot remember the shade, sorry.
I am going to rub it with cream and oil remover
See how dirty and black the area is?
I rubbed it vigorously for about 5 minutes
And
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
See that?
The color and shine still remains
The color is still that dazzling with shimmer
Aqua Rouge is not only Long Lasting and Water Proof
It is NON Transferable as well !!!
Meaning
*
*
*
*
*
You can feel safe and secure kissing, french kissing with your partner
cox he is never ever going to have your stains all over him

Nip + Fab Tummy Fix
I was Really surprised and happy with Nip + Fab Dry Leg Fix
And
I decided to give Tummy Fix a try
The active substances are Caffeine and Synephrine
Synephrine claims to Burn Fat
Increase Body Heat
and
Promotes Weight Lost
Tummy Fix is pretty different from other Body Slimming Lotino
as
Tummy Fix is
Daily Ab Toner
The texture is different from others as well
It is Transparent Gel Like
Which is NOT sticky
And
Absorbs Immediately into my Skin
It leaves a light lingering scent on my body as well
Not exactly a sweet scent
BUT
Refreshing
Although I cannot say that I have lost inches across my tummy
I do feel Lighter, Fresher and More Toned Up
My skin is also Smoother, Softer and More Hydrated
Well, of course different body and individuals react differently
I have used Tummy Fix for about 1 week and am still going to use it
I feel much happier and healthier
Maybe you may have better results than mine?

Make Up For Ever Black Tango Fall Collection 2012
I had always wanted to be Sensual Feminine and Seductive
Creating black smokey eye look is one of the essential
BUT
I can never pass through the messy-powder drops all over the face look
Powder shadow is a wee that bit messy with them falling and dirtying the look
Cream shadow can sometimes be too rich and difficult to blend
I have oily eye lids and color do not sit although I have prep with eye primer
Oh Well
*
*
*
*
*
*
*
Am I to bear with the messy dirty smokey eye look?
Especially when time is not on my side?
I was invited to Make Up For Ever Black Tango Fall Collection 2012
And
I am not only Impressed but totally Sold
Make Up For Ever Black Tango Palette
It is a Limited Edition Aqua Cream Palette
Consisting of FOUR new Aqua Cream shades
A harmony of Blacks with Red, Green, Blue and Ivory
The subtle and intense reflections are powerful potions of Seduction
The colors are rich and intense, highly pigmented
They are creamy but not oily
They are easily spread with fingers and even much easier with the attached brush
I do not even need to set them with powder colors at all
Not only the color stays all day, in the sun with the sweat
And even under water, in the pool
I have tried 2 looks using the Black Tango Palette
Closed Eye
Open Eyes
After - Before
Can you see how the eyes are enlarged with the contouring and falsies
Only a dab of color (Green + Blue) is blended at the corner of the eyes to give it some depth and lift
You can blend the color till the outer corner of the iris, about 1/3 of the length of your eyelid
I use Ivory under the brow bone and the inner corner, 2/3 of the eyelid for some contrast
The brush in the palette makes it much easier to blend with the firm nylon fibre bristles
Another new product from the Black Tango Collection
would be the Aqua Cream Matt Black
which is my Super Love
It has the same formula as the Aqua Cream range
But
offers a unique difference with a Matt finishing
It is also waterproof with impeccable hold
I pick up the color with my liner brush and draw an eyeliner
Remember that my eyelid is disgustingly oily
and
NO eyeliner could have stay put throughout the day without transfering colors
BUT
This little pot is A.M.A.Z.I.N.G
The liner stays put and does not run nor smudge
This is my Holy Grail
I tried another Intense look with Aqua Cream Matt Black
Eye Closed
Eye Open
After - Before
You can see that the color stays obediently at the correct place,
Does Not run, Does Not smudge, Does Not transfer
AND
the color Does Not Crease!!!
Yes, the color is Matt
And
You might think that the color will crease and difficult to blend or spread
BUT
You are awfully wrong
Because of the same formula as Aqua Cream Range
Aqua Cream Matt Black is easy to blend
As easy as Aqua Cream Range
The color is Intense, Rich and Super pigmented
Aqua Cream Matt Black is one which you cannot afford to miss
It can be used BOTH as an Eyeliner or Smokey Eye Look

Secrets to Achieve a Pair of Smooth, Slender Legs
Would you not want a pair of smooth slender legs?
Even Jennifer Aniston has to maintain her legs.
So
*
*
*
*
*
What am I waiting for, right?
The full range of Nip + Fab products from S$15.90 to S$29.90; which are available in Singapore Watsons
Anyway, my leg is really dry and itching the other day just after my bath
Hence,
I took out the Nip + Fab Dry Leg Fix : S$15.90 to try
And boy, am I amazed and buy over.
The cream is really thick yet not oily to feel
It also immediately ease my itch and gives my leg a luxurious silky feel.
But that aside
What I am amazed is the after glowing effect and 24 hour locking of hydration from within.
After I applied Nip + Fab Dry Leg Fix, I went out immediately for an outdoor shoot.
It was really a long, tiring sunny day.
Fancy tugging along a heavy makeup bag + makeup application in the Sun
And to make sure that the makeup stays fresh, dewy and smudge free.
Tedious but Challenging and Satisfying.
Anyway, after I reach home, as usual I would stretch my leg for a rest
And
I realise that both my legs still look radiant, smooth and soft.
What makes my jaws drop is when I realized my skin is plumped up and the fine lines seems to diminish
I am comparing the same spot of area which are circled in red
And it is really the same as I can recognize my own scar >.<
There are many fine lines before application on the left and the lines seems to diminish and more plumped up
Not only the area circled in red, of course.
Comparing both legs, even after about 12 hours of walking and basking in the sun, hot and sweaty
My legs still look so fresh, soft and hydrated.
But it is definitely the diminish of fine lines which drive me crazy.
I am of course buy over.
And it's only the Dry Leg Fix I am talking about here,
What about the rest?
I cannot imagine how toned up my body will be if I start using the Tummy Fix
A closer look at my skin for you to be jealous and envious LoL :DDD
Don't drool or "Wow Wow Wow"
Do something about it
I am not an expert in their products
And
I am very sure they have more information to share with you
Hop on over to
Nip + Fab Face book Fan page for promotions, updates and Give Aways !!!

Coolest Sunblock in Town
We have heard of cooling toner, cooling moisturizer and even cooling mask
But
Have anyone of you heard of Cooling Sunscreen?
Not only is it Cooling, it has the conveniences of being a mist
When you can spray anytime, anywhere, anyhow you like
Sounds interesting?
Sunplay has created another milestone
*
*
*
*
*
Sunplay Watery Cool Sunblock SPF 65 PA +++
and
Sunplay Watery Cool Mist SPF 75 PA+++
I need to rave about the Watery Cool range
Both are awfully Refreshing which perks me up the minute I apply on myself.
Both have menthol icy cool feeling upon application
They are your best pal under the Hot Sun or when you are falling asleep at work or in lecture theatre
The sunblock is very watery like liquid and it absorbs fast into my skin
while
The mist immediately absorbs into my skin the moment I spray myself.
I totally have no chance to snap the mist when spray.
Sunplay has a wide range of sunblock catering to every individual needs.
And I took the chance to attach the range of sunblock Sunplay has for your conveniences.
The Watery Cool Mist is currently my fave, what about yours?
