Canon scrapbook

Talk about photoshopping your ass off! I've been working on this the whole day!

Anyway I'm just gonna post random "cute" photos I took with my sponsored Canon Powershot E1. I'm not gonna go into product specs lah! Just look at the pics and judge the quality yourself!!

Eh... My initial plan for a cute scrapbook was to go to Ikea to snap photos of people's babies. Then with the second parent I asked, I was rudely shoo-ed away before I could even complete my question! So I gave up on that idea and so... No babies!

I hope you enjoy it anyway, and sorry for the lateness!

OMFG

omfgomfg!!!!!!!!! I woke up to like 2 unpleasant surprises today! First, I was supposed to go to a business meeting today which I forgot about.

So I woke up, saw Gillian's sms, and said, "What time is the meeting ah?"

Gillian said, "It's over already lah!"

Thank god they (munkysuperstar) handled it well without me and it went ok. TMD!

THEN. Cherie from Nuffnang called and asked when I am going to post up my Canon advert.

I groggily said, "Isn't it at 12am tonight?"

She said no, it is 12pm (what kinda ungodly hour is that?) and everyone's already posted except me!




AHHHHHHHRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

Panic to the max ok! I intended to spend the whole day photoshopping, and I saw the rest of the girls' entries and they all put in so much effort and they are all so good! Madness!!!!!


Please lah girls don't say things like I'm going to win can!!!?!?! I know you are mumbling under your breath "But you are what!" and it is totally ridiculous that 74 idiots* already voted for me, butttttttt........


I AM VERY STRESSED!

What if I totally suck and everyone says I suck????


Ok why am I blogging about this when I should be blogging about my scrapbook?



OK BYE.

*I know you are supporting me and I shouldn't call you an idiot but at least have some semblance of fairness, please! I haven't even posted!

(Still) Damn good skin!

Advertorial

Woohoo! You know how a lot of you are asking about my skin care regime? Well here's your answer!

This is my second advertorial with Cellnique, one of the best products I've ever gotten due to me being an awesome blogger! Whee!!!

You can see my first advertorial for them here.

To be honest, till this date I still find that that advertorial is perhaps one of the best I've written. Maybe it is not as entertaining as those with more pictures, but it is certainly the most convincing!

Why?

Because everybody loves Before and After pictures, and these two pictures made sure Cellnique's famous Pro Sebum Gel was completely sold out in Singapore after the advertorial was published.

Till today sprees are being held for this magic gel, and it is also not uncommon for it to be sold out in stores.

The pictures:






Thanks... I know my nose very disgusting with all those black heads.


So anyway, now that I've piqued your curiousity - here's a picture of my nose in 2008:





Sorry lah! I got no "before" photo this time coz I've been consistently using Cellnique since 2006!


Anyway, the good people that brought us Cellnique have decided to give it a complete overhaul!!


Behold the new product design:





Under the new feisty name of B.Liv!


Inside:




It is colour labeled too.


Orange for Comedone reduction (I googled and that's like blackheads/whiteheads. Eww!)

Pink for Blemish reduction

Purple to Minimise Pores

and Blue for Hydration

But don't let the colours confuse you. If you have blackheads but also dry skin, you can always mix and match Orange and Blue products to best suit your skin type.

Their products are very easy-to-use and a skincare regime doesn't need to involve like 7 steps! Just 1)Serum, and 2)moisturizer. 2 steps. That's it.




My favourite is of course what used to be called the Pro Sebum Gel... Now, its new name is "Off with those heads"!

Hahahaha... Sounds a bit like a mad Samurai. But cute anyway!

Now, 30ml of this miracle gel used to cost $69. Now that everything is revamped, this wondrous gloop is going for 50ml at $100, which is even more economical. Personally I always finish my 30ml. :(


Just to reillustrate how awesome this product is:

Put a pea-sized amount onto your skin every night.

This can be applied instead of toner and before moisturizer. After 2 weeks, I experienced MUCH softer skin that is extremely smooth and has no clogged pores.

Zits and oil on my skin also reduced rather startlingly, and a soft pink glow even appears.


True story! You have to try it to believe it!


Another B.Liv product that I love is their facial masque - Now known as Glow and Shine.


Scary photo coming up

Tadah!!


Hahaha...


Aren't masks awesome? Glow and Shine comes in the form of a thick white paste with beads in it. Smells absolutely yummy and minty.

First rinse your face clean. Then spread it on and let it set for a bit. In the meantime you can feel a slight tingling sensation (I like to think of it as the mask killing my zits before they can start) and it's just wonderful to have that cold wet feeling on your face!

After 10 minutes, it's time to raise it off. I also like to use the beads to exfoliate for a bit. :)

And voila!



No photoshop on the complexion.

I know it's not perfect, but I am not one of those blessed people with good skin.

Er, in fact, if my skin left to its own I will have loads of blackheads and humongous pores and zits and oil and dull complexion etc etc... SO THIS IS GOOD ENOUGH!


Being the awesome blogger I am, I've also tried all the other products and I've squeezed them out for you to see so you know what you will be getting!






Left to right:

Got Me Covered:
Sunscreen! Very light, water-based SPF protection for everyday use. Gives light coverage and feels silky smooth.

Squeaky Clean: Deep-cleansing facial wash with beads in it. It really will make you feel squeaky clean coz of the refreshing herbal smell!

Drench Me:
Facial wash that feels light and yet cleanses thoroughly. I think it's good when used with Off With Those Heads.

Quench Me:
What used to be the famous Aqua Gel is now called Quench Me. This is a moisturizer that's water-based and hydrates without making your skin oily or sticky. It absorbs instantly into skin! 30ml of this used to be $55.90 but now 50ml of it is the same price!!

Shrink and Tighten:
Pore-reducing serum. I can't be sure if it works coz I also use Off With Those Heads which also does the same for my skin! But if your worry is big pores and not blackheads, then you should get this.

Glow and Shine: I just gave a glowy and shiny introduction of it.

No Spots Bye Dots: Blemish-reducing facial wash. Keeps blemishes from attacking!

Spots got Shot: (Not in picture) Instant solution for annoying zits!





Ignore the solemn expression.

FHM + Thumper partae!!

Photolog!

FHM Party

David, FHM's editor-in-chief, told me to send him a high res photo of myself a few weeks ago. He said it is for the Top 100 sexiest women booklet.

Startled, I asked him if I was in the the top 5 ugliest women in Singapore or something. He said I was being modest.

Turns out I am 53rd and got an award for it to boot! I am like the furthest you can get from sexy lor wtf!!

I got the World Peace Award. Thanks ah FHM... You guys very ironic and funny indeed.

Plasticzilla is 51st! Considering how much harder she tries to be sexy than me, I feel sorry for her that she is only 2 places higher than me. No wonder she didn't boast about this; it is impossible to take a screenshot of her position without me in the picture! Hahahaha!!!!!!!!


MUAHAHAHAHHAHAHA! Happiness.


Enough evil laughter. The party, in a make-shift yacht:

























With David. Who dunked the editor into the river?!

In case you are wondering, Andrea Fonseka is first and Kaykay is 7th! And her pic is also used as the booklet's cover!! Congrats Miss Yan!


My Thumper party

Big hugs and thanks to everyone who came!! Thank you Thumper! It was more like a birthday party than anything, with many many of my friends present. :)

My lawyer is cooler than yours!
He even parties and wears bunny ears!

Anyway he is like fucking awesome or something lah! His intelligence scares me. I rarely ever meet anyone who literally thinks 2 steps ahead of me (the other way round got a lot). When people are still discussing point A and went to B, he is already at K or something.

Anyway he mentioned he doesn't like publicity so I mosaic-ed his face! Plus lawyer in fluffy pink bunny ears like not very hire-able.

My lawyer!

My lawyer!

My lawyer!

I know, I've just repeated that 3 times too many. But isn't it nice? You pay a couple of hundreds (at the least la) and you can call somebody "your" lawyer! It's like having personal mafia to protect you or something!




With talented composer Eric Ng and.... *drum roll* The guy next to him is JAY CHOU'S DRUMMER ALL THE WAY FROM TAIWAN!!

HELLO!

Me -> Jay's drummer/Eric Ng -> Jay Chou.


It's a 2 degree separation! Omgness he (Jay, not drummer) could fall in love with me and marry me! I'll tell him no... coz I love Mike... and he will serenade me with piano and song then I'll cry wildly coz it's so beautiful and we will embrace and part tearfully... WHAT? CANNOT DREAM IS IT???

Anyway I went to Ah Mei's concert and on stage she mentioned that Singapore has a lot of talented composers and she spoke about Eric!!

Doing Singapore proud man!!




With Ming... Founder of Nuffnang.

Just yesterday I checked my account earnings with NN and saw that the amount is rather obscene. Thanks for bringing so much joy to bloggers! By joy I mean moolah!!

I love Nuffnang!!!!! I 100% regret the the day I doubted your biz plan in that country club over Indian food! Now you have shown the middle finger to everyone who doubted you!! Woohoo!




Ming and Estee, me being extra.



With Pris. I love her pretty website!



My girls

Must show off boots.
Yes the heart covers my undies.
Whatever lah prude!
