Vainpotty updates!

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

First up! Majolica updates!

Chapter 25 is finally out! And this time, it consists of mainly limited edition items so please get your hands on them pronto!

This chapter is called Mademoiselle Midnight because the makeup is especially suitable for an evening look or a party! This chapter has mainly 2 theme colours. One being red, which is more of a provocative, loud but yet glamourous look and the other being purple, for a more girly but yet eyecatching look!

We had a more flamboyant meeting this time round as we had mini makeovers complete with costumes to try on! Here are some pics!

Our main launch product this time is the Midnight Dresser!

The Midnight Dresser is available in two colours: Provocative Red and Girly Enticing Purple.

I love the dresser as it’s really easy to bring out as it has two eyeshadows and 2 lipglosses colours. No more trying to squeeze numerous makeup items in your teeny weeny bag when you’re off to a nice dinner or party!

While I tried Provocative Red for my makeover, I personally prefer Girly Enticing Purple. Maybe because I prefer a more playful pinkier colour for my lips instead of bold red lips. I really would love to try red lips (inspired by Blair Waldorf!) but it just doesn’t suit me! The eyecolours for Provocative Red is my favourite as you can create a very intense smokey eyes look! Ah well, we can’t have the perfect palette can’t we? So buy both!

Or at least, that’s what I did! It’s all about mixing and matching! Have fun girls! Do comment to tell me which dresser do you prefer!

Next up! Skincare updates!

Elizabeth Arden had invited a few bloggers to the very private launch of the Prevage Day Ultra Protection Anti Aging Moisturizer (from now on shall be called as Prevage D.) by Elizabeth Arden.

The Prevage D. is basically a moisturiser with anti aging properties and the good thing is that it has SPF 30 so you wouldn’t need to slather on your sunblock after applying it! The Elizabeth Arden people gave us samples to try it out.

The texture isn’t too oily or creamy and it smells okay and so far I like it!

The Soyjoy Japan trip! – The Otsuka Shiosaiso

Friday, November 27th, 2009

During our trip in Tokushima, we stayed at the Otsuka Shiosaiso which was a nice place for Otsuka staff to stay. Normally, outsiders are not allowed to stay in the Otsukua Shiosaiso but they were really nice to extend the priviledge for us!

They hung the Singapore flag as we were staying there that day..

The whole bunch of products under Otsuka… Spot any familiar ones?

We went outside to take some pictures..

We were really treated like royalty there. Food was fantastic and service was impeccable.

One of my favourite products. Really helps me to sleep better at night!

Can’t help but camwhore in the room. :P More updates coming soon!

The Soyjoy Japan trip! – Visiting the Itano factory

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

After Disneyland, we were off to Tokushima where the main bulk of our official work matters would happen.

First official job as a Soyjoy Ambassador!

To visit the Itano Soyjoy Factory.

We were brought around the factory and shown the process of making Soyjoy. I’ll save the technical details here but let’s just say, they seriously practice quality control and of course, the Itano factory does not resemble the Chocolate Factory in anyway much to my dismay.

Ah well.

Feeling edgy?

Sunday, November 22nd, 2009

Didja know that on day 3 and 4 of your cycle,you might feel a bit edgy and hyper? Head down to the gym to work-out some anger! I absolutely adore body combat classes as I always imagine boxing my enemies!

Aunt Red is in town.

Friday, November 20th, 2009

First day of the cycle commences today. While I feel like dying from cramps, (go away you insensitive people who thinks cramps are trivial) I should be happy that my body burns carbs better on the first 2 days of the cycle.

The Soyjoy Japan trip! – Tokyo Disneyland

Thursday, November 19th, 2009

As some of you guys may know, I’m a huge fan of theme parks. I absolutely adore thrill rides. Went to Dream World in Australia twice and I still wanna go back there again!

So when I heard that we were going to Tokyo Disneyland, I was damn excited.

Sadly to say, it turned out to not what I expected. The rides in Disneyland weren’t as exciting or thrilling as I thought it’ll be.

But then, I guess that Disneyland is more targeted to the kids?

More kawaii rides and shops. In fact, there were loads of lovely shops where you can buy lovely souvenirs. Dear Parita went bonkers over the stationery there.

Even I myself succumbed by buying this extra kawaii pair of minnie mouse sunnies.

Disneyland is a hit with the families and especially the ladies, of all ages.

There were a handful of worthy rides but despite everything, we all had a great time.

Would I go back to Disneyland? Definitely!

Random updates…

Tuesday, November 17th, 2009

Some pics of my long hair days. Pffft. Should I go for extensions or cut it a tad shorter ala concave bob style? Or rebond my hair? My hair is pretty fine (as in thin) though… Suggestions would be great!
