Can’t believe it has been 2 months since I last blogged! Also means that I have been working for 2 months already. Which also means that I’ve not been sacked yet! Woots!!
Well, working life is actually turning out to be not too bad, but that’s largely due to the fact that Claire joined the company on the same day as me and there are a whole bunch of other new hires as well. Got to know other ntu ppl whom I never knew existed (despite the face that we have quite alot of common friends!!) such as Alicia and Maybs, so everything’s real cool. I heart Bloomberg!
Of course, the best part of working is the MOOLAHSSSSSSSSSSSSS………………
Hehe… But that has also made me realise that I am seriously lacking in SELF-CONTROL. Which is not good.
BUT BUT BUT… A girl has to pamper herself after a long day of work right?? I mean, its only right isn’t it? Can’t possibly be like one of those aunties who don’t even bother to put on any makeup when they go to work mahh. Making yourself look nice is a form of respecting yourself and others (Sounds familiar, dunno where I heard that before).
Anywhos, sharing with you what I have bought/did so far!
1. Clinique’s 3 step program
I’ve always wanted to upgrade myself from those over-the-counter facial products and I heard not-bad reviews about Clinique so I decided to give it a shot. Well…….. My face is clean, but I’m not going gaga over it yet. Probably not gonna replenish.
2. Benefit Beauty Uppers
I entered the store with an intention to get a blusher only and I ended up with this! Packaging is irresistably cute and, surprise surprise, their products are actually not too bad!
Dandelion is (supposedly) a face powder which the salesgirl told me that I could use for touchups. I was a lil skeptical since the powder is PINK (although she claimed its colourless) but I followed her instructions anyway and brushed it across my face to touch up. SO WRONG! At the end of the day I looked like I had been gone suntanning for 12 hrs and got severely burnt. So now I just use it as a blusher.
You Rebel Lite is a tinted moisturiser with SPF 15. Not too shabby, coverage is quite good and it manages to correct your skin tone to be just right.
Benetint is a lip and cheek tint, just like what Bodyshop used to have in the good ol’ days. It has rose extract (smells like bandung) and is supposedly good for the skin. I’ve never been a fan of liquid tints so its alright.
3. Browhaus Brow Construction package
Yes yes, I got conned into another one of these packages. But considering that brow tweezing is something I am definitely gonna be doing consistently, I find it a worthwhile investment! And its Browhaus LEH.
4. Chapter 2 rebonding
Yups, I finally rebonded my hair after talking about it for so long. Good part? Hair is straight and not as thick as before. The payoffs? Dry damaged frizzy ends that drives me crazy. And working in an air-conditioned office does not exactly help.
Well, these are all that I can recall. Of course there are the shoes, clothes etc that I did not bother to list. But what I am most excited about is *drumrolls* ……….
Its not exactly mine yet because I am still deciding if its worth $325.38. Some Singaporean in the U.S can help me buy it at 25% discount and ship it over, but with a handling fee of course. Still much cheaper that buying locally, which costs abt $460 I think. HOW HOW HOW??? Its so drop dead gorgeous and I am in desperate need of a new wallet and now got 25% discount and I don’t want a Coach or a LV like the 568,929,319,831,092 other ppl in the world has. AND SINGAPORE HAS NO MORE STOCK OF THIS BLACK VERSION!!!
Grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr………. I hate you Hanyee
