Anne Hathaway in THAT Oscars dress – Fabulous or Faux Pas?

March 3, 2013 Paris B 25 Comments

I don’t usually follow celebrity news and Awards season is usually a bit of a snorefest for me. Never used to be that way. I used to be a huge fan of the Oscars when I actually used to watch movies back in the day. Now that I don’t (and I didn’t watch a single one of the nominated movies this year – sigh!) I don’t usually bother with the Oscars or the red carpet. Not my scene.

But last Monday when the Oscars got underway, I could not help noticing many online references to Anne Hathaway’s dress and her nipples that were purportedly grabbing worldwide attention as she scooped up the Best Supporting Actress award for her role in Les Miserables (still haven’t seen it! Gah!)

So I had to go and look it up of course 😀

anne hathaway prada dress oscars 2013

Here is the pale pink Prada dress that had people talking. Well, yes, it is quite an unfortunate design because I see how the darts at the boob area made the front of the dress stick out, and with light and shadow in play, its a bit of an outstanding problem.

Or it could be her perky nips, who really knows 😛 But there were 3 things I liked about how she looked (and none of it was the dress).

Scrumptious Saturday Vol. 24: Juicing for Health and Better Skin

March 2, 2013 Paris B 42 Comments

This whole week, I’ve been talking about making changes to various parts of my skincare (toning and using a cream/milk cleaner) with great success. The primary reason I’ve had to do this is because last month, my skin decided to throw a tantrum. I had terrible acne and clogged pores on the lower half of my face – one of the worst episodes I’ve seen since I got my skin under control. I remembered my previous experience when this happened, where I found that what my food intake can also have an effect on my skin. Over the Chinese New Year festivities, a lot of food was consumed, mostly not very healthy and significantly lacking in fibre and greens.

So when I got home and settled back into my routine, I sat down and decided that I had to do something about my fibre intake and I hit on the idea of making juices with fruits and vegetables. I looked it up online and its a really really huge thing. There are blogs and websites dedicated to just juicing! But I ran into a problem.

juicing for health

I don’t have a fruit juicer! I thought about picking up one, but there were so many things to think about – did I want a slow juicer or a normal juicer? Did I want something that was pricey or could I make do with something cheap? How long could I keep this up for before I fall off the bandwagon?

It was about then that I remembered I had a blender. So I looked up information online and it turns out, blending fruits and vegetables has its own niche and following too! Gosh, is there nothing that no one is an expert on online? 😛

For the past 2 weeks, I have been blending a fruit (and sometimes vegetable) drink almost daily and I have to say, I really enjoy it! Not only that, I believe I’m getting health and beauty benefits too 😀

New! Caudalie Vinexpert Anti-Aging Skincare and my introduction to Caudalie

March 1, 2013 Paris B 45 Comments

One of the things I’ve enjoyed most about beauty blogging is the wealth of information at the proverbial fingertips. It has opened up my eyes to so many new brands and products out there that I would never have paid attention to. There’s also a knock-on effect when reading other blogs. I start getting caught up in everything new and wonderful out there and one of the new and wonderful things I spotted getting a lot of interest last year was a new-to-me brand, Caudalie.

I never really had the chance to check it out, mostly because it was stocked in Sasa and unfortunately, that’s a store I rarely go. However, I recently was invited to learn a little more about Caudalie and their new Vinexpert anti-aging skincare range (Goodness! Did they realise I am erring on the wrong side of youth?!) and also learnt that the local distributor is no longer Sasa but Ken’s Apothecary. Now, that’s a much more palatable store to go to 😛

caudalie vinexpert anti-aging skincare

Caudalie (I love the way the French say it – so sexy 😛 ) was born in a French vineyard in Bordeaux and uses extracts of grapes, grapeseed, vines and everything grape related. The vineyard of Chateau Smith Haut Lafitte (here) is still in business if anyone is into wine, and Caudalie actually has Vinotherapie Spas which I’d absolutely love to try! As the name implies, it involves a lot of grapes including a Vinosource facial with fresh grapes. Now, how freaking cool is that?!

I personally have not yet used anything from Caudalie but I’m quite sure many of you have so come on then – tell me what you have tried and what you like (or don’t!) and I’ll brief you a little on the new Vinexpert range.
