Soap and Glory Scrub 'em and Leave 'em Body Scrub review

http://img.dooyoo.co.uk/GB_EN/orig/0/7/6/1/2/761280.jpg 
I received this last Christmas, and although I have several other body scrubs, I had never tried this before. I have the mini travel-sized version, which retails in Sephora in Singapore for $5.

Scrub 'em and Leave 'em is a cute and catchy name, that perfectly describes the product. It works to slough away your dead skin cells to reveal bright smooth skin. I have to admit that the first time I used it, I did not like it. The large granules was what put me off, and since my other body scrubs were in more accessible squeeze bottles, this tub of body scrub was very troublesome and off-putting. But subsequent attempts helped me realize that it is a really good product. It really scrubs and exfoliates my skin well, and the skin that I have after stepping out of the shower is smooth and glowing. Be warned: it is best used around once a week, otherwise it might aggravate your skin if used too often. Also, I find that my shower area gets quite messy because of the large granules left behind.

Other than that though, I really love this product as a weekly exfoliator. After a while of sitting in my shower, it will separate a little, but it is easily mixed together again with no issues. Best of all, I like the pink round container, because who doesn't like pink? I've been disappointed with other Soap and Glory products before, but this one is a true keeper.

Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour 499 Dark Cherry review

TDLR Review:  I would not recommend this hair colour product at all, because the shade turned out nothing like the box. Also it is difficult to wash off.  NOTE: I have dark Asian hair, which might be the reason why it's not suitable for this product. So I'm back with another hair dye review! I've raved about the Liese hair dyes before ( Cassis Berry , Sweet Apricot , Antique Rose ), because those are super easy to use (I've appreciated that even more after finding out how difficult some at-home hair dye kits can be to apply). But I got suckered into getting a box of Schwarzkopf Ultimate Colour hair dye, because the models on Schwarzkopf hair dye boxes always have gorgeous shades of hair! I've used Schwarzkopf before, I've bought the Palette in Magical Blue Black (no review, only a haul). But I was disappointed with it, because there was only a faint sheen of blue, and the black faded from my hair quite quickly. The trouble with Schwarzkopf also is

Intro Post

Despite the name, this blog is not about carousels or couture (although you never know, that might change?). Nobody likes to spend money on something, only to discover that it does not deliver what it has promised. I sure don't. So I start this blog with the hopes that perhaps it'll help someone find their holy grail. And maybe, I'll find my own on the way too. Expect to find beauty and skincare reviews, book reviews, movie reviews, and current obsessions. Oh, and a little couture here and there too.

Old Town White Coffee Ipoh Hor Fun review

  Who doesn't like Old Town White Coffee? It's so nostalgic, from the furniture they have to the food they serve. It's really like a throwback to the simpler times in Singapore. According to Wikipedia, Old Town White Coffee is the largest kopitiam restaurant chain in Malaysia and has over 180 outlets in the region. Can you believe that? I love their kaya toast and of course, their Ipoh Hor Fun. Why go to Penang when you can just enjoy the Hor Fun here? Normally I get those Ipoh Hor Fun that is served in rich gravy, with not much soup. But this one is served in a clear broth, which is perfect for a light meal that is also filling. At the end of it, you won't feel too full or bloated like if you had something richer. The kway teow is served with generous helpings of prawns and chicken shreds every time I go there (my favourite outlet is Playground at East Coast Park, the area that used to be Big Splash. There are 8 outlets in Singapore at the moment, and they ar
