"Staycation"

HI GUYS 
The weekend is over which means it's Monday again ): but oh well I don't really dread Mondays as I do not have school HAHAHA 
well it's 10:17pm now but I'm so bored so I decided to update my blog (: 

SATURDAY: 
On Saturday afternoon my HONGKONG friends(super close,and my BFF is in hk too and I miss him so much ): ) came to Singapore to visit my fam fam!we just had like a simple dinner at 'wen dong ji',a super famous chicken rice stall at balastier.the chicken rice there is really tasty that I can eat a bowl and a Half all by myself when I usually can't even finish half a bowl of rice :p

       •this is really so so so tasty oh my gosh and I can't express how much I love this dish 

around 8, we head to my grandaunt house with my friends as they wanted to visit her! But I didn't go because I had a movie date with my best friend HAHA so I went to meet him to watch Robocup at Jem and yeap that show was kind of interesting I would say (:
I'd rate it a 7/10 only as the storyline was kind of boring and it somehow feels like it's just ironman.but spending time with him was what's important as that was somewhat like his birthday celebration hahahah because I'm a lousy friend and I can't plan anything well :p 
But anyways bestie(you know who you are)if you are reading this,HAPPY SWEET16 ONCE AGAIN AND THANK YOU SO SO SO MUCH FOR BEING MY BEST FRIEND THOUGH WE AINT SO CLOSE ANYMORE <3 

SUNDAY :
After breakfast and preparation,my family finally headed out at 12pm to meet my friends for lunch at Clarke quay! (It's my work place and i am going there so often:p) we had soonfa batkuteh for lunch and it was really tasty!!
I'll rate it a 8/10 as it still loses to the balastier batkuteh.the soup is not so strong compared to the balastier one which taste so much better. Do give it a try if you haven't try it before because it's really finger licking good (; 
After that,we headed to fairmont hotel singapore for a 'staycation' and before reaching there,I got Starbucks yay yay yay.finally had Starbucks after so long gosh 
•mocha frappe is my fav drink from Starbucks (without whip cream though just that I tort my brother will be sharing with me and he loves the cream so I didn't take it away) 
So me and my brother just lazed in the hotel all the way till dinner while my parents and my HK friends headed to Chinatown for shopping!

around 7pm,we headed downstairs for dinner at watami restaurant ! YAY TO JAP CUSINE *.* 
 (pictures credit : google)
•it's located at raffles city,basement1 #B106-07 if I'm not wrong and the place is really big so worry not about queuing for long time 
*.*my fav beef bibimbap*.* 
•only have a picture of mummy and daddy in my phone as I forgot to take other pictures as I was busy eating T_T 
After dinner,we just head to the market place to get some fruits and off we went back to the hotel.

THATS ALL I DID THIS WEEKEND AND I REALLY HOPE TO HAVE MORE WEEKENDS LIKE THIS BECAUSE I NEED A GETAWAY EVERY SINGLE WEEK.im not even kidding,staying in Singapore is really so so so stressful ): well really can't wait for another getaway to maybe HK or Lego land soon!!

Super simple,looking natural make up routine

HI GUYS!!!
So as you can see from my pictures on insta and on my blog that I put on slight make up.i usually only put make up on spcial occasion or when I'm heading out! If not usually i would just apply some bb cream(because of the sunscreen spf)and off I go!
This blogpost will be about the make up products I use and how to go about having make up yet looking natural as I hate thick make up. 
•without make up (pardon my blemishes because I've an outbreak ): )

Step 1 : 
Apply moisturizer.apply it to allow your skin to not feel very dry.put small amout over your face and dap it and make sure it's spread evenly.

Step 2 : 
Apply bb cream(I'm using the garnier miracle skin perfector) on to your entire face.make sure you cover every spot as bb cream have SPF and it acts like a sunscreen to protect your face from the uv rays!

Step 3 :
Take your concealer,dot it into places with blemishes and blend them out evenly.make sure they are even,if not you'll have two skin tone on your face!


Step 4 :
Take a matte powder and pat it onto your face with a brush.it allows the face to be less oily and allow the bb cream+concealer to last longer! (No picture of what powder I use because I have yet to purchase a new one)

Step 5 :
Take a eyelash curler and curl your lashes
.

Step 6 : 
Then,take the mascara that you like and apply it onto your lashes.(I personally apply only 1 coat as my lashes is long enough.If you want  longer and thicker lashes,you can take another kind of mascara and apply another coat into your lashes.) 

Step 7 :
Take your blusher and apply to the apple of your cheeks.use a lighter colour to make the look simple and natural.[not so natural : if your blusher has a highlighter/bronzer in it,use it to contour your jawline,nose bridge and also abit on your forehead.]



Step 8(optional) : 
Take a lip balm to apply onto your lips.it allows your lips to be moisturize before applying lipstick.

Step 9 :
Take the lipstick that suits the natural look,or your favourite colour(make sure not too over) and apply it onto your lips.make sure to remove the excess that went out of your lips and make sure your entire lips have the same colour.


AND YOU'RE DONE WITH A NATURAL MAKE UP TOO(to me it's natural)I DONT USE EYESHADOW AS I WANTED TO KEEP MY LOOK SIMPLE.

That's all for this post and I hope it's helpful/interesting in a way or another(:

My night routine

HI GUYS!!!
So this will be my night routine post. I'll be blogging about how I keep my face clean and oil free every night before I sleep.As my skin is very sensitive and acne prone,I use products which are more expensive for my face so as to have a face with less pimples and less oil.

before I start my night routine,I'll tie my hair up in a bun or a pony tail to keep my hair off my face.

Step1 : I'll wet my face with tap water and use my face wash over my whole face.i just have to use a small amount and it'll be enough for the whole face.after scrubbing my face with the face wash,I'll use water and rinse my face with water again.Then,I'll use a dry face clothe to dap the water away.
 • EAU THERNALE AVENE face wash for oily,blemish prone skin (I think it's around $30 at watsons/guardian)

Step 2 : I'll take the spring water to spray my entire face.After letting my skin asorb it for a while,I'll pat the remaining water on my face to let it dry up. 
•bio essence spring water.It helps me lessen the redness on my face and also lessen the amount of oil produced from my face.(I think it's below $20 for one at sasa/guardian?)

Step 3 : after my face dries totally from the spring water,I'll apply toner onto my face.apply toner on my entire face but avoiding my eyes area,then I'll pad the toner to let my face absorb it better.the left over on my hands can then be applied to my neck area.
•DR.G super moist toner. The smell is really nice and the stickiness on your hand after applying goes off in less than a minute.( I think it cost $30 and below,ard $25++ if I ain't wrong) 

Step 4 : I will take my moisturizer to apply on my Tzone and cheeks only.the moisturizer is a 2 in 1 as it's a pimple cream as well. It'll just apply it and let it dry by itself. 
•ducray cream.this cream is to let blackhead and spots heal and it's very suitable for ance prone skin.(it cost $16.90 only and it last me up to 3-5 months,depending on how much I need a day as it varies due to the amount of pimples I have)

Step 5(optional) : lastly,put on a mask before you sleep! Use a mask that is hydrating mask/whitening mask depending on what you prefer. Just place the mask on your face for 15-20min and just relax.do not talk or make any facial expression while doing mask,as it'll affect your results.after removing the mask,massage face to assist in absorbtion. for some mask,you'll need to rinse your face after masking.so it'll depends on the mask you use.

•little twin star mask.its for lightening my skin and smooths my skin overnight after doing it.(I think it's below $10 for a box of 4) 

•my face gets better with this night routine even though I'll have some breakouts sometimes! Less pimples and smoother face (: 

So this is my night routine And I hope some of the items can help you to get a better skin(: I shall do a make up Routine soon so do stay tune till as it'll be up before the weekends!
