Scrumptious Saturday Vol. 6 : Paper Wrapped Goodness

March 31, 2012 Paris B 19 Comments

I had a bit of craving during the week for paper wrapped chicken. It is quite literally as the name implies – marinated chicken, wrapped in paper and fried.

I’ve tried a few places, but the one I usually end up going to because I like the taste of theirs is at Soo Kee Mee, at their original stall in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, in a corner coffee shop, under a big tree 😀

New! Diorsnow x Icelandic Glacial Water Skincare and Makeup Preview

March 30, 2012 Paris B 32 Comments

We hear of cosmetics collaborations all the time these days, but how often do you hear of a cosmetic collaboration with a … water company? Riiight. Not just any water, mind you. This is the Icelandic Glacial Water company, where the source of the bottled water comes from Iceland’s  Ölfus Spring, one of nature’s largest natural springs where the water has been filtered through volcanic rock. The key distinction of this water, other than the fact that its one of the purest in the world, is the high alkaline content with a PH8.4 apparently. And how is this relevant? Apparently, alkaline water is good for us, to balance the acidity of our skins.

Interestingly, I recently met someone who told me about a home filtration device that makes the water alkaline and that drinking this water is supposedly better for health. I can’t say I’m not intrigued by this, especially coming on the heels of the Diorsnow range of skincare infused with Icelandic Glacial Water. Funny how all this bits of trivia I collect assemble into something coherent at the end of the day 😀

The 2012 version of the Diorsnow skincare range contains Icelandic Glacial Water with its alkaline goodness that is said to be better for our skin. Combining the water with the Diorsnow technology, the results are supposed to be clearer more translucent, radiant complexion. Wow. I’ve got some pictures below as well, of the Diorsnow makeup range which, as the name implies is shimmery and icey in design and feel. A very pretty ethereal type collection.

When is a lipstick not a lipstick? When it is the Clinique Almost Lipstick

March 29, 2012 Paris B 50 Comments

You know what? I’ve never worn the iconic Clinique Black Honey lipstick, have you? For some reason, our local Clinique counters don’t carry the Black Honey range, or even the Black Honey lipstick. When I spotted the Clinique Almost Lipstick range, I was quite ironically amused to learn that although it is inspired by and a spin off the wildly successful Black Honey Almost Lipstick, we don’t get Black Honey (the colour) locally. Strange, I know!

That said, there are 6 colours available locally, one of which is Luscious Honey as you see pictured, one of the 2 redder shades. Right up my alley you say? Yes indeedy! 😀

If I were to describe the Almost Lipstick range in one word, it would be – SHEER. Oh boy, is it sheer! You see that bright red in the tube? On skin its almost nothing. I might say that I was a wee bit disappointed even though I expected it. I mean, it is called “Almost” Lipstick after all, not “Extreme” Lipstick or “Super Pigmented” lipstick 😛

How To: Work-Friendly Makeup and How I Apply My Eyeshadow

March 28, 2012 Paris B 77 Comments

I’m one of those people who got into makeup  late in my life, when I started working. Even then, I only started with a lipstick, then blush before I finally had enough confidence to try eyeshadow. Early attempts were pretty much disastrous but these days, I’ve hit upon a technique that works very well for me and that I employ with almost every eye look and colour combination. Its terribly simple and uncomplex so you can imagine my surprise that I quite recently received a few emails asking how I apply my eyeshadow. I never thought that it would elicit interest LOL! 🙂

work friendly eyeshadow application

So, I thought I’d share how I wear a work friendly eye look, and also how I apply my eyeshadow. Its not quite as marvellous or amazing as the many other eyeshadow tutorials you see out there, but I hope some of you may find it useful because its dead easy 🙂

Famous last words 😅 Can’t believe how tiny he was last CNY. I could make him do whatever I wanted. Now, he’s got a mind of his own and it’s “no treats, no work!” 🤪
It’s an unusual Chinese New Year this year. It’s the first time since I left home that I did not make an early morning drive home for CNY for the reunion dinner (I always do so to beat traffic). It’s the first time I’m spending CNY in KL. It’s the first time my hair is looking such a mess for CNY 😂
Regardless, we do this not for ourselves but for others so we can have more joyful CNY celebrations to come. 
Wishing all of you a Happy, healthy Chinese New Year filled with Ox-picious tidings 🧧 Gong Xi Fa Cai and enjoy the festive break! ❤️
Low key CNY celebrations this year. No need to dre Low key CNY celebrations this year. No need to dress up or put on makeup since we’re staying home, but I’ll be damned if I don’t smell like a million bucks from head to toe! 🥰
I never appreciated hair mists but the Chanel No. 5 Hair Mist is a nice, light way to enjoy the perfume. Who says you can only spray on your hair? 😬
What’s your CNY shaping up like?
