Givenchy's lipstick reinvention: Le Rouge-À-Porter | SWATCHES & INFO

Press Release

"What if the most Couture lipstick were reinvented as a ready-to-wear lipstick?"
Givenchy is proud to launch a sister product of their iconic Le Rouge lipstick, the Le Rouge-À-Porter. Taller and more slender (also boasting a completely different formula compared to the classic Le Rouge), the new box contains a longer lipstick. While its shape may differ from the original, its luxury case remains the same - genuine black leather featuring a metallic stud.

The sheer formula of Le Rouge-À-Porter leaves a luminous colour and a naturally shiny finish on the lips. If you're a fan of sheer, hydrating lipsticks that glide over the lips easily, you certainly don't wanna miss out on this collection!

Dare to be FLAWLESS: April Bellabox 2015 | UNBOXING & REVIEW


“You wake up, flawless
Post up, flawless
Ridin' round in it, flawless
Flossin' on that, flawless
This diamond, flawless
My diamond, flawless
This rock, flawless
My rock, flawless
I woke up like this
I woke up like this
We flawless, ladies tell 'em”

- Flawless by Beyonce


Now that we have Beyonce's song as our inspiration, let us beauty enthusiasts be a step closer to flawlessness! With haircare, nail care, skincare and even skin-loving makeup, I would say the April bellabox is pretty much an all-rounder. I'm quite excited to calculate the value of this box (I love maths so I can't help it lol) so let's get to the individual items and price calculations!

Le Spa, a sanctuary to derive joy | REVIEW

I have been wanting to go for a body massage since February, no kidding. Maybe it's because of all the time I've spent on my laptop, but my shoulders and lower back have been feeling extremely strained. Then one day in March, it's like God decided to send me a sweet surprise via e-mail when Le Spa contacted me and asked if I wanted to try out their body massage. I have to admit though, I didn't agree immediately because I was afraid it was some dodgy company LOL. Plus, I've never heard of "Chun Tin Road" so even the road name sounded dodgy to me hahahaha. BUT, my mind changed when I checked out their website and realised this company seemed very promising! Bonus points for finding out that Chun Tin Road is actually located at Bukit Timah (opposite Beauty World Centre) and that's kinda near for me! *gleeful*

The first and last time I did a full body massage was almost exactly a year back, so boy was my anticipation real!
Yes, 24 hours - how awesome is this especially if you live nearby??
No excuse not to pamper yourself even with a busy schedule!
