So I was given a box of Gorgeous by Klarity SG to try and review (28 ampoules) and I was intrigued to a certain extent. Mainly because I am taking collagen supplements but logically, I know that collagen is only protein so it’ll be digested down into amino acids in the stomach. However, there have...
I’m not sure why this didn’t occur to me earlier but our skin type is determined by our DNA, so wouldn’t it make sense to know how best to treat our skin/ what type of skincare to use based on our DNA? Well, someone did. Introducing Anake, Singapore’s first end-to-end DNA-based skincare experience, that uses...
I almost did not bother reading this book because the title did not appeal to me at first. However, I decided to give it a try and I was pleasantly surprised that how relevant it is to explain how and why people are behaving the way we are in the 21st Century. Summary (From Blinkist)...
I was pleasantly surprised that the latest Blink on my list was Matthew McConaughey’s Greenlights. The nosey side of me decided to listen to it (there are days where I skip a book) and now, I am quite intrigued at the psyche/headspace of McConaughey. Summary (From Blinkist) Matthew McConaughey had an unorthodox upbringing in East...
Do you have sensitive skin? Prone to eczema (like me) or other skin conditions? Then you probably wouldn’t be using a lot of the commercial hand sanitisers and disinfectants out there because they either have alcohol or they merely contain a cocktail of essential oils which kill bacteria but not viruses (which COVID is), and...

Kinda hit home because I’m currently teaching full time while running my online business and although I teach young adults, all teachers will face pretty similar emotional issues. Moreover, students can pick up on your attitude and emotions,...
As mentioned in my previous blog post, I aim to share any interesting reads that I’ve come across and last night, my “Blink of the Day” was “Unapologetically Ambitious” by Shellye Archambeau. Summary Archambeau is an experienced CEO and Board Director with a track record of accomplishments building brands, high performance teams, and organizations. Ms....
About 6 months ago, I went to Privé Clinic for an Ultherapy session to get rid of my double chin as well as to get a bit of a lift because age and gravity does things to your face and skin, I tell ya. But I didn’t blog about it when I first had my...
Homegrown personal care brand Soul Good Project launches its first range of natural deodorants and sleep mist, which are made with plant-based ingredients that are free from paraben, aluminium and baking soda. The founder of Soul Good Project battles with eczema and is also gluten and lactose intolerant, which is why she embarked on a...
When I first saw Kotex’s period panties on sale at Watson’s, my immediate thought was, “Why didn’t anyone think of this earlier?” As someone who has struggled with heavy flows (especially on Days 1 & 2), this nifty invention could’ve saved me loads of trouble regarding changing bedsheets and countless underwear. But at S$7 for...
