Convertible Maxi Dress

I am really so fascinated with my new wardrobe discovery. The convertible maxi dress really was a great find. I bought the dress in an online store here in Singapore and I tried it on the moment I got the package last night.

The dress came with a tube to be used as guard from backless styles that can be done with the dress.

Here are the different styles that can be done with the dress:

Mommy Porkee’s (Proposed) Face, Bath and Body Regimen

Every girl should have a beauty regimen. This has been my goal ever since I started working here in Singapore. I wanted to start a beauty regimen and stick to it until all the bottles are done. The main importance of having a beauty regimen is to develop and protect our skin with the natural course of nature, i.e. aging.

My current regimen only includes drugstore (read: Nivea) facial wash, toner and facial cream. Then, I just whip up my body with the Block and White Lotion that I bought from the Philippines. Nothing’s wrong with this regimen, really. I’m very busy and I have a lot of things in mind. But, reading beauty blogs and write-ups made me realize that I need to do more to take care of my skin for the future. So, here are the products that I will be buying this weekend, if everything goes well.

Face

Since I still have a good amount of my Nivea products, I will just stick to it. But I need to do it religiously. For example, I need to scrub my face with the facial wash more often (morning and night) and do the scrubbing leisurely. Second, I need to apply the Nivea toner and make sure that all the areas are toned. Thirdly, I need to massage my face with the moisturizer and make sure that I have applied enough moisturizer in all the aspects of my face.

Bath and Body

I came across this website that sells products that are smelling good and fresh. http://www.lemongrasshouse.com.sg/ Their limited edition Renee’s line caught my attention. So, I wanted to buy and try out the following products:

Renee’s Limited Edition Body Cream from Lemongrass House 20SGD

I saw in Renee’s Blog that Body Creams should be applied right after shower and pat drying your skin so that the skin could absorb the nutrients of the cream as well as the fragrance. I’ll surely do this!

Renee’s Limited Edition Shower Gel by Lemongrass House 9SGD

I’ll start my shower with this shower gel to compliment the body cream. I really hope this works and this restore the moisture of my skin.

If budget permits, I will also purchase the Salt Scrub so that the skin irritations in my arms will disappear! I hate it so much!

For office hours or in between hydration of my skin, I will use my current Block and White or Belo Lotions so that it won’t go to waste.

I really wish that I can accomplish and finish this regimen that I want to try. I also hope that it will be helpful to my skin.

Smell Good Yah?

My 2012 is geared towards being healthy, losing weight, being physically fit and having a good and healthy life. In line with this, I will also try to de-stress my life, start making myself feel good, making myself up and making sure that I smell good.

So, I bought 2 new fragrances that will surely make my 2012 really smell good.

Lanvin Eclat 50ml (36SGD) and Lancome Tresor 100ml (110SGD)

Among these two fragrances, I like the smell of Lanvin Eclat more. Good thing Efren made me buy it during our company Christmas Bazaar because I love it so much. It has a powdery smell that makes me feel refreshed and fragrant.

I’m not into heavy perfumes but I want a smell that lasts long. I usually just wear Johnson’s Baby Cologne or Victoria’s Secret Body Mist but they always wear out at the end of the day.

So, making sure that I smell good entails buying EDPs or Eau De Parfum  instead of just colognes.

Lancome’s Tresor In Love smells much more sophisticated and classy. It smells so girly and I like it so much I even joked the sales lady about the package and freebies.

Anyway, I never leave without any of these perfumes with me. You’ll never know you’ll need it. Once I’m finished with these bottles I try other perfumes in the market that I like.
