  • Chanel Le Vernis #767 Fraicheur

    I love it when beauty brands pull out something unexpected out of the blue from time to time, something they have been keeping up their sleeves hidden away from our greedy eyes. That was the case with the Chanel Le Vernis #767 Fraicheur. A refreshing mint green nail polish that feels more spring than summer, sneaking up […]

    In 1853, Pierre-François-Pascal Guerlain dedicated the Eau de Cologne Impériale to Empress Eugenie, wife of Napoleon III for whom the bee was the emblem of an empire, and thereby establishing Guerlain’s destiny. For the past few centuries, the bee has been a symbol of the house of Guerlain, and its full power has been harnessed for […]

Shu Uemura Tsuya Bouncy-Fine Cream

After a seemingly endless bout of skin irritation, I am finally happy to declare my skin free and clear! Woo hoo!! Actually, it has been so for a past couple of week, and I almost didn’t notice the change, until people started commenting on it. Wait, what?! I mean, I’ve been living with this up-and-down […]

Guerlain Dresses Us Up In Petals with La Petite Robe Noire Eau Fraiche & a GIVEAWAY!!

Oh has it been almost 2 years since I first encountered Guerlain’s La Petite Robe Noir? Thinking back, it was one of my very first fragrance review [read here], and it was an extension of the deep love that I had for Guerlain makeup at that time. Since then, I have gone on many fragrance […]

Having a Ball of a Time with Courrèges Estée Lauder

After yesterday’s part 1 coverage of the Courrèges Estée Lauder collection [read here], I realized I had unconsciously separated the collection by their packaging – sticks versus balls. LOL! I hadn’t meant to segregate them that way, and I’m sure the pieces would have worked equally well coordinated with some of the pieces that I’m […]

Having Fun with Courrèges Estée Lauder

I’m feeling on a high lately, as the Courrèges for Estee Lauder Collection has just landed in Singapore! Initially intended for Spring 2015, this collection was so popular and soldout in the US that the stocks have only just made their way to our shores. But they are here now, and have launched at selected […]

For Summer 2015, Tom Ford Beauty has released 4 lipsticks in the Lip Color Sheer formula that was first launched in Spring 2014. Of the 4 shades available this season, 2 were repromotes from the limited edition Spring 2014 release - Paradiso and Sweet Spot, whilst 2 are completely brand new. For today, I’d like […]

Tom Ford Pink Sand Cream Cheek Color & Mini Terra Bronzing Powder

I’m not usually a big fan of cream cheek colors, as the tropical humidity here in Singapore usually fades and causes cream colors to slip off my cheeks. But when it comes to Tom Ford, I tend to give everything the benefit of the doubt. And so, I was happy to find that the Cream […]

Getting Intimate with Etat Libre D’Orange & the Man Behind it - Etienne de Swardt

It is often very insightful when you get to meet the person behind a brand… after all, that’s where it all began. And the idea behind Etat Libre D’Orange is insanely cool and liberating, as is Etienne de Swardt. Charming does not even begin to cut it, after all, he’s French and charming is in […]

Tom Ford Eye and Cheek Compact in Pink Glow

Alright, let’s get down to business! After yesterday’s major swatch-a-thon [go ahead and indulge here!], I thought I’d take you through an in-depth look at each of the pieces.
