ISAYHELLO: eyelash extensions

I just wanted to start my blog post by saying that I had a good week.

Not a super great everything-went-smoothly kind of week,

but it ended on a really sweet note when I came home on Friday and received all the love that my sponsors sent over.
♥

A super huge thank you to the very sweet people from Browhaus (Jeane and Eugenia),
Benefit (Mei Ting), Hairstylers Asia (Lin),
and Brands Innershine!

It definitely put a huge smile on my face when I came home to these goodies.

Items I got inside my goodie bag when I attended the new outlet opening of Browhaus and Strip at Westgate!
(Will be blogging about it in due course!)
The chimpanzee is way too cute, hehe.

The very awesome smelling shower gel which was specially customized and personalized for me by Jeane and Eugenia!
Thank you girls!
This is a really nice gift and I love it.

Absolutely adore this funky printed zip pouch that was inside the package too!

Already blogged about the contents of this pretty gift set from Benefit in my last post!
:)

This pretty in pink Mason Pearson hairbrush which Lin sent over is really awesome.
Really, really awesome.
So awesome that I will be sharing this on my blog soon in case you're wondering how this is different from the normal hairbrush.

Babyliss Curl Secret - new toy for my hair!
Saw this on Youtube before and I was really amazed at how it works.
So happy when Lin told me she was sending me a set!
:)))

And lastly, the goodie bag which the kind people at Brands InnerShine sent over.
I was excited to find out that it consists of their newest product,
the Marine Collagen Essence Strips!

I love collagen and I drink bottles of them on a weekly basis if I remember to.
Thought that it was pretty cool for collagen to come in jelly form!

Between my mum, sisters and I,
we already finished the entire box after I finished taking the photos.
They taste really good (even better than collagen in bottled form) and are super addictive to chew on!
Each strip has about 1000mg of collagen and I think it makes a really wonderful snack.

I'm also really impressed by the effort that they took to source for items which come in the similar pretty purple tones to put into the goodie bag!
;)

I'm truly feeling blessed to have received so much love given that I haven't been blogging "seriously" as a contracted blogger for very long so far.
So thankful to have all these brands/my sponsors for placing their faith in me,
trusting that I will do a good job in sharing about their products on my blog.
And of course, the biggest thanks goes to my management company Nuffnang,
for without which I will not have this much opportunities to work with so many wonderful and well known brands and companies.
♥

Anyway,
here's sharing my outfits for this week!
I haven't been taking outfit photos at anywhere else other than the void deck,
because it's been raining like mad on most days and I just don't have time to head out to nice places.

Outfit of the day:
Slouchy Knit Cardigan and X Factor Spag Top from TTR,
Groovy Corduroy Shorts upcoming on TTR,
bag sponsored by Sandy Trove,
heels from Topshop

Kept all 3 colours of this pair of Topshop inspired shorts.
LOVE LOVE LOVE THEM!
The texture of the shorts definitely adds an interesting but subtle touch to any outfit.
And I just have a inexplicable weakness for shorts which comes in a cutting like this.
So basic and easy to pair with any top.

Laine Bag in Black is kindly sponsored by Sandy Trove.
I'll be sharing more about them in my next few posts and you can expect discounts!!
;)

I also spent a couple of hours this week at one of my favourite places - Covo Salon!
I always feel extremely welcomed and I love getting my hair pampered.
Their treatments are seriously the best.
Not kidding!

I also got a retouch on my eyelash extensions (blogged about it previously HERE).
I thought that the ones I did the first time round wasn't obvious enough on me because I have a habit of drawing eyeliner.
With the liner on,
the C curl lashes I picked tend to not show up that well.

So Jeanne (the therapist) suggested that I go for the CC curl this time round!
:)
I'm really loving my eyelashes a whole lot this time after the retouch!
They are much curlier and are still noticeable after I draw my eyeliner.
Although now that my eyelashes are so prominent and pretty,
I tend to skip the eyeliner altogether on most days.

You can go to my Dayre and take a look,
I've recently posted pictures of me just out of bed with zero makeup on.
My eyes still look just as good as in these photos even though I just woke up.

For my hair,
I chose to do the Super Treatment (as I always do when I visit Covo, it's really fantastic!) and a subtle perm at the ends so that it would curl inward naturally.
I love the effect which using the Babyliss Big Hair 42mm gave me (read here) and so I asked my hairstylist whether they could give me the same curls because I wanted something more permanent.

And it turned out exactly the way I wanted it.
Some of you have asked me whether the curls will stay even after washing your hair and all.
And yes it does.
It works just like your normal digital perm,
they will stay the same if you blow dry your hair properly after washing!

Outfit of the day:
Season of Love Romper upcoming on TTR,
bag and heels as above

It's always a matter of romper > dress for me,
so it was a no brainer that we should manufacture a romper which looks like a dress for Christmas!
Our rompers are usually on the more casual side,
but this year end we decided to make them a tad dressier and more suitable for those fancy parties you're gonna be attending.

I really wanted to keep this in all colours but I'm running out of space to stash in my wardrobe.
So after much deliberation,
I kept this in Wine and Navy!
Was a really touch choice between Tiffany Mint and Navy,
but Navy won eventually because I already have many items in mint colour.
Hahaha.

Outfit of the day:
Manhattan Skater Dress upcoming on TTR,
Soda Box Bag from TTR,
loafer wedges from Charles and Keith

You know,
this was initially one of those dresses which I dismiss as "not my type" when the sample first came.
But that thought faded into non existence when I first tried it on.
The cutting is JUST. SO. GOOD.
It fits to a T and is extremely comfortable.
In fact, I think I will be wearing this over and over again.
Especially on days when I peep into my wardrobe and have a frigging mental block on which outfit to pick.

Hehe, and now I really want to keep this in another colour as well.
I have till 8PM tomorrow to decide!

Our launch tomorrow is super awesome if I can say so myself!
Pop by and grab a few pieces!
They are definitely timeless essentials which you cannot do without in your wardrobe.
;)

Talk to you again soon!
