I really enjoy Flea Markets, I usually spend my time buying stuff and looking for great deals at Flea Markets! I had my first Flea Market experience earlier this year with the girls and I was delighted that Fleanatic had approached me to be one of their vendors! Needless to say, I asked BFF along!

Nuffnang Blog Awards, Here I Come!

Sunday, November 6th, 2011

It’s been a while since I attended any huge Nuffnang parties! Sadly, didn’t manage to attend last year’s Nuffnang Blog Awards. I think the last (huge) event I attended was the Nuffnang Pajamas Party!

Are you guys going for the Nuffnang Asia-Pacific Blog Awards 2011? If  not, why so?!

I wanna attend because I want to meet the big names in the blogosphere. *coughs fangirl mah coughs*. I also want to catch up with fellow bloggers and basically just to have lotsa fun!

For those who were wondering about the Nuffnang Blog Awards, here’s some info for you!

500 bloggers from the Asia-Pacific region will be attending the Nuffnang Asia-Pacific Blog Awards 2011 on 16 December! It’ll be held in Putrajaya Mariott which is located in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The Awards aims to not only honour the region’s best bloggers, but also to bring together blogger communities from across Asia-Pacific. The Nuffnang Asia-Pacific Blog Awards is brought to you by Volkswagen Malaysia (I would kill for a Volkswagen Old Beetle!) and Putrajaya Marriott.

I’ve already applied for leave and will be attending the Blog Awards! Who else will be attending? Join me please! Now, the biggest headache… what to wear?!?!?!

Kenny and Joy from Grayling (yes, my ex-company :P ) invited me for a great body flight experience (i.e. skydiving) at iFly Singapore a few weeks ago. I’ve always wanted to try skydiving (and bungee jumping) but never had the opportunity to do so. I also brought Ching Chong Boy with me!

Needless to say, when both Kenny and Joy presented this opportunity, I said YES immediately!

Here’s some background info on iFly.

- It’s the world’s largest indoor skydiving simulator.
– It’s the only wind tunnel that offers flyers an unparalleled view of the South China Sea and a nightly firework display from the nearby Songs of the SEA.
– Anyone from first timers to professional flyers can fly.
– 20 professional flyers can be accommodated at any one time.
– It’s a great full body workout!
– Local trained instructors has clocked in more than 50 hours of flight time. Impressive!

Alrighty, picture time! (Pictures taken by Jacelyn and me!)

In a blink of an eye, three years has passed! It has been 3 years that I’ve been a Majolica Majorca Blog Ambassador and have been sharing about the latest launches, swatches and tutorials of Majolica Majorca in this humble personal turned lifestyle blog.

It’s been a great three years with Majolica Majorca and for all of you loyal readers, you’ve seen my experience so far.

From the first time where I met the other ambassadors to funky activities like holding a snake,  exotic classes to fun activities like the silly story i wrote, decorating classes, makeovers and the numerous launches that we’ve attended, it has been a great 3 years so far and I do not regret joining Majolica Majorca as one of their pioneer blog ambassadors.

Am not sure if they would continue this programme, even if they don’t, Majolica Majorca will always hold a special place in my heart. :)

Enough mushywushy-ness from me! Let me share with you on the exciting activity we’re having for Majolica Majorca’s 3rd anniversary!

I met with the girls at Pique Nique recently (great food btw, am SOOO gonna go back soon!). Very nice place, love the Western/American decor. Reminds me so much of a diner!

Review on Kandi Treats & Giveaway!

Kathy from Kandi Treats had kindly approached me and asked if I wanted to review (not paid okay!) their latest product: Jellybeans. I was intrigued by the name and decided to take up the offer to review the products and also have a giveaway for my readers.

First up, some background info on Kandi Treats.

Singapore Lifestyle Blog, nadnut, Lifestyle blog, Life and Fun!, Singapore blog, Singapore blogger, Blogger in Singapore, Beauty blog, Fashion blog, Accessories, unique accessories, fashionable accessories, fashion, nadnut, necklace, kandi treats, giveaways, contests, jellybeans

The first product, Jelly Bean, was conceptualized by the owner, Kathy Amurao-Herrera. One day while shopping at a bazaar, an idea sprang her mind that it would be great to only shop for JUST one item and be able to use it in several different types of wardrobe in several different ways. It would be nice to have an accessory that saves you a lot of money and shopping stress just because it is so functional. She started with ribbons as the basic element and soon came up with a simple accessory, which she then tried to reproduce and sell to a few friends.

She was able to show the first batch to several different people and had great feedback. That’s when she decided to sell their products to a bigger network. Hence KAnDi Treats was launched August 2010. The name KAnDi was from the names, KAthy Amurao-Herrera, ANdrea Castro & DIanne Cristobal-Correa.

Kandi Treats’ has come a long way since their launch last 2010. They were featured in different tv shows, magazines and fashion blogs. They vow to showcase Filipino hand-made accessories all over the world.

I thought it was really innovative of her to create an item which can be used in so many ways.

Some of the Jellybeans that I got from them..

Remember my previous review on Beauty Host? Here’s the second part of my review! I visited Beauty Host again this time to try their facial and body scrub.

Let’s talk about the Coffee and Sea Kelp Contour Scrub with Complete Body Rejuvenator Mud Therapy first!

Honestly I’m not a big fan of coffee but the coffee scrub smells heavenly! The therapist mentioned that the Coffee and Sea Kelp Contour Scrub would not only help with my dry skin on my back as an exfoliater but it also has anti-cellulitic properties. It did wonders for my dry skin!

After the scrub, I had the Complete Body Rejuvenator Mud Therapy, it is  an extremely rich clay which is used to not only detoxify but to also rejuvenate one’s skin. It has Kaolin, Balm Mint, Chamomile and Fennel as it’s main key ingredients. My skin felt uber soft and silky after that!

After the body treatment, I was pampered with the Uspa Refining Fruit Acid Facial. The facial is customised to each individual’s skin type and needs. My therapist mentioned that they used an unique blend of botanical fruit acids as not only do they help refine the surface of the skin (which gives one a rather radiant complexion but it only helps increase hydration and also greatly reduces the appearance of fine lines, unevenness and also age spots. I noticed that my skin felt softer, refined and also more hydrated.
