Montigo Resorts 《 #BoozeyGirlyWeekend Day 2 》

If you haven't seen Day 1 of our #BoozeyGirlyWeekend, read it HERE for the photo tour of the villa + more details of the trip might be slightly helpful if you're heading there for a staycatiion yourself soon!

We literally spent the entire 2nd day simply just boozing, bobbing around the villa's pool and prancing around in our bikinis, i'd call this a perfect day as compared to our usual hectic work life. So.. here's the photoblog!

Woke up bright + early and totally starving!

haha "stole" Shirley's beach cover up cos she spritz it full of perfume and it smelt aaaaaaamazing!

Waiting for our buggy ride to the breakfast area, yaaaaaaay hungry much!

Love that they have quite a huge spread for breakfast, mmmm more mango chutney please!

LOL having cotton candy while fooling around in the pool

Soaking wet & buggy ride back to our villa!

Tsk tsk, after breakfast + dip in the pool, back in the villa and we popped some Jolly Rancher marshmallow popcorn. It's surprisingly super awesome! Must get if you're going to nagoya hill, they were selling at the push cart area near the "food street" totally regretted that i only bought 1 box!

At noon it got a little too hot to hangout in the sun so we went to the living area and watch whatever's on HBO, took cat naps while still in our wet bikini + bathrobe! LOL just us 3 girls just lazing around, life is sooooo good.

It's so, so soooo dreamy to watch the sunset up at the villa's rooftop!

 

Took what must be like 10,000 shots before we got 1 good jumpshot! Hahaha all sweaty and totes ready to take another dip from all the wine + jumping around!

Hauled out hungry lazy butts to the seafood restaurant for dinner and it was pretty good! 

Love love love the 3 batter calamari Mmmmm.

Princess Brazillian at Revive Wellness

Hello! It's been awhile since i've even had time to log into blogger, my grandma was recently diagnosed with cervical cancer and it's been home/work/hospital/home/work/grandma's place for this couple weeks now and was really just not in the mood at all and was so tired for anything else than going on with daily life and really try to relax during pockets of precious free time.

She just got discharged from the hospital today and is resting and home now so yay! Hope the situation improves after this tough few days after the chemotherapy and hopefully hear better news during the coming check up!

So remember i blogged about our #BoozeyGirlyWeekend at Montigo? [2nd day is coming up soon, too many photos to go through it's madness] well before i can claim to be bikini-bod ready!!!

I went to my (YAY!) new sponsor, Revive Wellness (blogged about my 1st trip there here) for a session of Princess Brazillian to get rid of all the hairy bits, it was quite the experience, i can tell you.

Love their outlet at The Central, it's bright yet calming and i always feel at ease when i'm there for my treatments, not to mention the wonderful service provided by the staff of Revive Wellness! (:

Hello my pretty suede x plastic Melissa oxford heels! Was ushered to the locker area to change into comfy flipflops and store my belongings before proceeding to the treatment.

Changed into a comfy silk robe and it time to lay down and relax!

I'm definitely not new to waxing, i've frequent many popular waxing palours here in Singapore but i've never had quite the same experience here doing the Princess Brazillian as compared to the usual Brazillian wax i've gotten elsewhere.

Why is it called Princess Brazillian? It's aim to please and make you feel like a princess and make you feel worth a million bucks of course!

The usual brazillian are normally chop chop, wax wax, you're clean and BYE!

After you're waxed & clean, it could be understandable if you're feeling slightly sore esp if your hair is of the thick side/hair is stubborn so the therapist will have to wax and wax a particular spot repeatedly to get rid of all the hair, with the Princess Brazillian, a cool gel + machine is applied and followed by a mask [for whitening/soothing effect] for your coochie is applied so.. no more leaving your wax palour feeling all ripped and sore!

It's too good to be true and definitely a first of such pampering coochie treatment i've tried and highly recommend! (:

Woots! Definitely bikini bod ready by then!

Beauty Review: Hello, Flawless Skin with Purer Skin!

These days the trend is the “no-makeup, barely there look. But the thing is- not everybody will be able to carry off this trend because you need to have clear, flawless skin that glows from within. But even the barely there natural makeup look takes work!

I wouldn't say that I have flawless skin, but i think since I’ve converted to the Purer Skin regime 4 months ago it's helluva improvement as compared from before- a lot of my old pimple scars which has "stayed" with me for years is even fading, the best part is the redness on my chin area is pretty much gone!

Luckily for us, with Purer Skin, flawless skin is just a Purer Symphony away!

 Ku Hye-sun [age: 28]

Lee Min Jung [age: 31]

I used to be a Korean Drama nut and I remember always being envious of these Korean Actresses especially Ku Hye-sun in Boys Over Flower!

I know it's still great makeup skills and great lighting and all, but they definitely got the flawless, smooth skin pinned down to a T!

When you watch American dramas, you see the Caucasian actresses who are really pretty but in all the close-up shots a lot of them look like they are wearing extremely thick makeup and the skin is uneven with all the pimples etc, so achieving flawless clear skin is a must!

How do you look flawless like the pretty korean ladies above, in these days where we're living in a highly stressful environment, whether you have to juggle many responsibilities like your career as a busy working adult, or if you're a mother and you have to take care of your family etc.

But the key to carry off the no-makeup natural look is to first have perfect, dewy skin!

Seeing how my skin improved so much, I have a couple really simple tips that i'd like to share [ that you can try too! ] to fully reap the benefits of my Purer Skincare products such as the below:

✧ I  mix one part of Night Recovery and one part of my makeup primer together to soothe and keep my skin hydrated when i have makeup on all day long at work! I felt that after i started doing that my makeup tends to stay on longer!

✧After application of  my favorite product in this regime- the Miracle Serum,  I would always wait for at least 2 mins for the serum to be fully absorbed by my skin before following up with Night Recovery, because if your skin does not absorb your skincare, no matter how expensive or good a product is, it will go to waste!

✧I apply a layer of Miracle Serum to prep my skin before applying my night mask, do you know it this will increase the efficiency of the mask? *thumbs up*

✧ Night Recovery to be used as a jelly mask on areas that wrinkles are more likely to form- such as laugh lines, forehead, outer corner of the eyes. I believe that prevention is the secret to “extending” your skin’s youthfulness!

✧ Night recovery in the fridge use as Rescue mask if you were under the hot sun all day, like recently i went to Montigo for a weekend getaway with my girlfriends.

all we did was laze on the float in the pool all day and my skin was a little dry and even started peeling around my nose, when i got home i used my chilled Night Recovery as my quick rescue mask and my skin was feeling so much better right after! The peeling stopped the very next morning, hydrating 200% hahaha.

Since my skin is so much better because of Purer skin now, i hardly use any of my heavier coverage base makeup anymore, my main focus these days when i use base makeup is really to correct / brighten my skin tone and not so much to cover blemishes, a CC Cream could be your holy grail product.

The brightening effect is much better than BB Cream, it is also more moisturising compared to typical BB Creams and usually contains more skincare ingredients that is helpful in maintaining healthy skin!

FUN FACT:

Do you know It takes at least 28 days to start seeing results from any anti-aging skincare products?

Although Purer skin gave me amazing results after i used it for a week or so, but after 4 months the results is simply amazing!

But just keep in mind, an anti-aging skincare regiment takes time—AND patience!

Don’t expect to notice dramatic changes in fewer than four weeks, if you see results from using your Purer Skin Regime with the above tips i just shared, that's a wonderful bonus for ya! (:

After 28 days, you should be able to see results, which will gradually accumulate with continued use.

For me in my 1st month, my skin started to really get deeply hydrated thanks to the nourishing Bird's Nest with its nanotechnology and the redness caused by my oily dehydrated, sensitive skin around my chin area is simply gone for good. I'm truly grateful because alot of times the redness can't even be covered with makeup and it's really god-awful.

Now i'm seeing improvements like pimple scars disappearing simply by being diligent in cleansing/toning/hydrating with my Purer Skin Symphony products!

You know what? You can help the process along by getting enough sleep,

Keeping hydrated by drinking enough H2o and managing your stress-

all of which help your skin renew itself.

Montigo Resorts 《 #BoozeyGirlyWeekend Day 1 》

Went to a nearby heaven for a short girly getaway last week with the girls! ≧◉◡◉≦

We all took 1 day's leave for our long weekend and planned it just 2 weeks before and we were going crazy buying stuff for the trip. We wanted to buy the pretzel pool float but decided not to but instead we went to Toys-R'us and bought 3 pool floats for about $40? Ordering our bikinis from ASOS and gmarket korea and so kanchiong that it would not reach in time and all, but everything came just in time, in the end! (:

Took a short 45mins ferry ride to batam, Nongsa on Wavemaster from Tanah Merah Ferry Terminal and a rep from Montigo was at the terminal to greet and drive us to the resort, and we're here!

We reached at about 12+ so we didn't expect to be able to check in immediately since check in is about 3pm i think? Thought we will be leaving our luggages and hopping onto a cab and heading to Nagoya for some light snacks shopping and lunch.

Hello roomies- Shirley + Felicia at Villa 10 for the next 3 days! 

We paid about $930 for 2 nights for the 2 bedroom hillside villa, quite wasted since we only slept in the master bedroom, i'd recommend not getting the beachfront villa thou hehe the front part of the beach don't look exactly very appealing and clean anyway so no point paying more $ for that! Plus the beachfront villas "blocks" the front eeky part of the beach so the view from our villa of the beach is actually nicer! hahaha

Heard that they are going to have 1 bedroom villas later next year which would be awesome for couples! Want to come here with leon for a romantic getaway but abit silly for 2 person for a 3 floor villa with 2 bedrooms right?

Mini tour of the 3-level villa!

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ [ Level 1 ] 

Living + Pool

There's also a mini kitchen area with a mini fridge + stove + microwave, gotta request for wine/beer-opener thou!

ou can bring your wii games here or maybe can rent from the reception but I'm not sure it it's available since we weren't really into gaming anyway, just really wanted to relax and nua to the max.

Didn't know there would be a iphone speaker in the living area + masterbedroom, so i brought my own mini-x speakers for music while hanging out by the pool! 

Used my mini-x speakers most of the time anyway since we won't be able to hear the music from the pool if i used the living room speakers unless we turn it really loud anyway.

Spent most of our 3days hanging out at the pool the most!

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ [ Level 2 ] 

Bedrooms

The bedroom that we didn't sleep in! 
There's 2 bathrooms on level 2 but only the masterbed room has a huge tub.

Masterbed room

OH HELLO HUGE BATHROOM! 

The tub was so huge the 3 of us could have a bubblebath together at the same time. 

Left side was the shower and toilet area

(っ◔◡◔)っ ♥ [ Level 3 ] 

Rooftop

Looks amazing isn't it! Great spot to catch the sunset or have a BBQ if you bother to bring you own stuff there if not you can request to set up a grill and have a chef do the work for you right on your rooftop.

We actually brought a bicycle pump for the pool floats but somehow it didn't work so we had to blow it up on our own! hhahah so retarded half of the time we were laughing to death, it wasn't easy ok. 

LOL see like so poor thing!

LOL look at this crazy shirley with her tiny float! 400000 breaths later we're finally done and the girls was doing their makeup before we head out to Nagoya so i had some time to roll around and camwhore!

Heh do we look alike? Felicia is actually my auntie but i'm 2 days older than her! During our primary school days we were both in CHIJ so we always told people we were cousins because it's simply too mafan to explain at that age.

Got a cab and we're on our way to Nagoya! I think the cab ride there was about SGD$16 and it took about 45mins - 1 hour because there was a jam! ):

Hungry die us and stuck in the cab, the moment we reached Nagoya we already knew what we wanted to eat lol ayam penyet! It's CRAZY CHEAP! Can't remember exactly how much but it's so so so cheap.

Bought this marshmallow microwave-popcorn and cotton candy to nom back at the Villa.

Lol crazy girls bought a bunch of pads. Wanted to see if the tampons are cheaper there but they don't sell tampons?! They don't even have a wine section in the supermarket but we found a duty free wine store outside the supermarket. Bought more snacks and fruits and cabbed back to Montigo was a little faster this time without jam. 

If you're only staying at Montigo for 1 night i'd definitely recommend bringing your snacks and booze from SG thou.

Oh hello pool, we're finally back~ Changed into our bikinis and hopped right in baby!

LOL!

Breaking out the 1st bottle of moscato, yummeh! 

Leon got it for me from DFS when he's flying back from leehom's tour 
and he got me 2 bottles of these liquid gold for $78.

♪ MOSCATO + CHAMPAGNE + MINI DO'S BY THE POOL! ♫

✿◕ ‿ ◕✿

The pool floats was a super good buy! hahaha quite challenging getting on them at 1st thou, bad aiming and i flipped over in the pool while trying to flop myself into the donut float! lol

Bottoms up baby! 

Super hungry by then and we were feeling kinda lazy and floaty from the swim + booze so we ordered room service.

 

Beef burger and a side of fries for me please! ≧◔◡◔≦ 

It wasn't too pricey too, about SGD12 i think? 

I remembered when Leon & I went to Angsana resorts in Bintan, each meal was at least SGD$100 for the both of us and we only ordered pretty normal stuff, 2D1N lunch and dinner = SGD$200+

Breakfast for dinner girls? (:

Heard that there's a Sundown party at the main pool that night, some DJ from Singapore was spinning so we decided to freshen up and head over to check it out!

Wearing the Bobbi Brown Creamy Matte Lipcolor in Red Carpet that was in my media kit from the Bobbi Brown Holiday 2013 Collection preview.

Love love love this lippie, I've been wearing this so much, I want to get more colors from this range of matte lipsticks! I'd dab it on my lips and feather the color out with my fingers on days that i want a more natural red lip look. I wouldn't call this a true red thou, more like a slight Orange-Red lipstick. 

And this stuff goes on super creamy and it really lasts! The matte look makes it super wearable too, i never use to wear red lippies because the red lippies I've tried previously are mostly shiny ones and it draws way too much attention to my plump lips since i usually like playing up my eye makeup more.

(ʃƪ ˘ ³˘) MUACKS!

Turned out the Sundown party was kind of a dud and the drinks at the bar.. is kinda terrible :/

So when you're heading there, BYOB!

S's white wine was horrible, F's cocktail tasted diluted and totally weird and mine was errr..ew.

Music wasn't fantastic either, so we took the buggy back to the villa and started our bubblebath! I love the soap and glory bubble bath soap but i can't seem to find them at sephora stores anymore thou. ):

♪ BUBBLE + SIPPING CHAMPAGNE BATH! ♫

  Love ma silly girls.
