My deepest thoughts

Salonvim

Posted in Uncategorized by Agnes on May 13, 2013

It’s amazing how Allen is able to revive my disheveled hair within 2 hours.

First, because I love having short hair now, I’ve requested to have it trimmed shorter.

Allen agreed instantly.

He thinks I look brighter and more vibe in short hair.

I have pretty flat and thin hair and I totally love how Allen cuts my hair.

My flat hair now has more volume.

Next, I had my hair coloured.

Colour: Burgundy

Don’t be deceived by the look of my black hair.

Under the light, my hair displays shades of red.
So beautiful.

It’s subtle yet trendy.. just what I wanted.

..

Last but not least, I had the chance to experience the new Arimino Privy treatment.

In my opinion, this new Arimino Privy treatment is really effective.

Maybe because I swim weekly and hence, my hair is pretty much dry and damaged.

So thankful for this hair treatment which works wonders.

My hair still feel and look healthy after 1 week.IMG_20130511_164640

..

And, here’s a piece of good news for all…

Salonvim is holding a hair treatment promotion for the entire month of May!

I am Back! :)
Been a busy bumble bee for the past one month.
..
And yay, I have started working.
There are so much to learn and adapt.
..
….
My boss may be really strict and fierce, but he has taught me many things.
I’ve learnt to see things in a different perspective and handle things differently now.
Like many others, I may have alot to rant about him at times..
But, I really do respect and look up to him.
..
Work aside..
..
If you haven’t already noticed, I’ve cut my hair short! :)
Awesome haircut by Allen @ Salonvim.

I like everything about this dress.
The cute gold heart shape buttons, the skater bottom, the cutting…
The cutting is awesome.. makes my waist seemingly smaller. :)
A decent length for work.
It is such a sweet and feminine piece.

Made of high quality cotton polyester blend. :)
I’m so in love with the crochet details and the unique frontal keyhole detailing.
The sweetheart neckline and flare bottom emanate just the right amount of feminine charm.

I have been playing around with Polyvore and it’s interesting
because I can get to create and share how I would pair my items. :)
Some items in the collage are not what I have but similar.

I like how I can wear the top tuck in or out.
It’s a versatile piece. Good for work or even just casual dates with girlfriends downtown. :)
Lace top always makes one look sweet, feminine and demure.
Who will say no to lace? Hehe.

Here’s what I read from the Fengshui Book bestie bought..
She buys it every year. I am not superstitious.
Well, I just feel it isn’t a bad thing to read for some reference, guidance and maybe self assurance? :)

Dressing Salad

Posted in Uncategorized by Agnes on February 22, 2013

..

Another outfit review from..

139773_original

What does salad signify to you?
Well, a bowl of salad is not about having the best ingredients.
It is about mixing the correct ingredients and sauces to suit our taste bud.
This theory is the same when it comes to dressing up yourself.
..
Looking your best doesn’t mean wearing the latest clothes or carrying the most expensive bag.
It is important to select and match every piece of your choice wisely.
Put on something that make you look gorgeous and comfortable in – regardless of the trend.
..
At DressingSalad, each piece is picked distinctively and flows with the ongoing trend.
They aim to help customers to identify their ingredients (=clothes) and sauces (=accessories) to create their best bowl of salad (=How amazing you look and feel!)

..

..

Apart from taking photos of the tops Trish has sent me, I am also gonna share where I get my pants, shoes and accessories from to match the tops from dressing salad. :)

This black chiffon keyhole top is good for a casual date, brunch with friends, or even a casual office look.
Pair it with a belt and you are good to go. ;)
I like black tops because I have many belts in bright colours.
Simple and stylish.
You will never go wrong with basic pieces.

A pretty red top for work. :)
Nothing goes wrong with a peplum top.
Peplum top is a good way to show off your curves.
Peplum top is a great mix of formal and casual.
This look works for a casual date, brunch with friends, or even a casual office look.

Beauty treats

Posted in Uncategorized by Agnes on February 13, 2013

I’m a little kiasu when it comes to facial/skin care.

I like going light on my face…
It’s just eyeliner with concealer around the eye area.

photoshake_1360393826774

I have very sensitive skin.
I would describe my facial condition as relatively dry but sometimes, I do feel that my cheeks areas are a little oily and the pores are slightly enlarged.

Lately, I have started trying out anti-aging products because they say people in their 20s can certainly begin using the anti-aging products. The goal is damage prevention, not reversal of damage. :)

I’ve tried both Loreal Youth Code and Bodyshop Nutriganics..

IMG_1924

But I still think..
The Body Shop – Nutriganics™ Drops of Youth
is much better!

nutriganics-drops-of-youth_l

The serum is very light and has a cooling effect when applied. There is no smell to it, which I love. It glides on your skin smoothly. I have dry skin and it absorbs within seconds.

I do see slight improvement in my facial condition. My complexion seems brighter. :)

Del who recently has pimples popping up every now and then.. we do not know why either is also using this product.
And, it really work wonders for him!
His complexion has vast improvements with less acne!
Del really likes this serum too!

I’m not doing a sponsored review for this.
This review is based solely on my personal opinions and experiences.
