Skin Tone Improves with White Lucent Serum

June 17, 2011  |  Beauty Guide  |  Claud talks Beauty, shiseido, White Lucent  |  No Comments

After three months of twice daily application, I do see an improvement in the color tone on my face. I used to have uneven skin tone and looks yellowish at times. Now the color is more balanced and I do look fairer. I believe credit for this improvement goes to Shiseido White Lucent Intensive Spot Targeting Serum which I was first introduced in March. $159 for 3 months of usage, its not that expensive afterall. I’m on my 2nd bottle now, which I bought on White Day.

The other products in the range are finishing soon; either that or I aren’t using them as regularly as the serum. I’m a very lazy woman lah. Skin care is a touch and go thing for me. Morning and before sleep cleanse, tone and serum. That’s it.

Anyone of you using the serum too? Or has got other recommendation that worked? Would love to hear from you.

Keep Zits Out with LMS Spotlights

April 8, 2011  |  Beauty Guide  |  Claud talks Beauty, LMS Spotlights, red light therapy  |  No Comments

“我感觉有pimple要pop出来我就用,果然pimple就不出来了!”

That’s what my Mum told me after she tried the LMS Spotlights. I equipped her with the range of LMS Spotlights – 24, 8 and 3, few weeks ago, and she’s been using it every night before she sleeps. Though the recommended usage is to do it three times a day, Mum said she don’t have time to use so many times. She does carry the LMS 8 in her bag wherever she goes. I can picture her using it in the car while my Dad drives them back from work. Beep beep beep beep… for one minute.

White Day 3.14 – Be there at TANGS Orchard

March 7, 2011  |  Beauty Guide, Happenings  |  Claud talks Beauty, shiseido, White Day 3.14, White Lucent  |  No Comments

Surprise surprise! Never have you imagined Claudia the Panda will be sharing about beauty in this blog right? I did write some pieces before but this time, I think I’m pretty serious about it. When Shiseido contacted me, I couldn’t resists but to accept. My mum used to love Shiseido products and she’d been telling me how good they are. But being the panda me, my face is like the least I spend time on, except for the daily routines and the facial package which I rarely use these days.

2011 is such an exciting year ahead for me, I’m beginning to pay more attention to my skin and body. So this opportunity came in the right time. I would like for you to join me on my journey towards clearer and brighter skin…

To help kick start my whitening journey, the above were what I got in my personal “starter pack” with compliment from Shiseido.

Avalon Detox turns me into a bird

April 12, 2010  |  Beauty Guide  |  Avalon Detox, Detoxing, Diet, Health, Personal, Product Review  |  5 comments

“Tweet! Tweet!” I’ve came to become a huge giant bird after I started consuming Avalon Detox capsules. Mum started taking Avalon since more than a year ago. She kept asking me to eat it too but I’m such a lazy person when come to regular consuming of vitamin pills or detox pills like this one.

But when Mum brings one pill to me every night before she sleeps with cup of water, what other reason should I give not to take it? So I’ve been eating one Avalon capsule a day for the past 4-6 months (I think). Did it help me the way it should? I’m here to share with you how it had helped with my dieting… “My rebirth of wellbeing…”

Disclaimer: This is NOT an advertorial nor a sponsored one. In fact, my mum and I had spent much money on Avalon Detox, and I’m sharing this because I’m seeing the effects in me.

My Feet Mission at Shimmer and Shine

September 10, 2009  |  Beauty Guide  |  Are You Being Served, Pedicure, review, service, Shimmer and Shine  |  2 comments

Remember the mission I said I’ll do with my feet? Yap! That one that made Molemole went Wahahahaha! non-stop. The mission which I planned to do in support for “Are You Being Served?“. Ya! That one lah!

Well, Diana did a mission recently to test the reaction of the staff from a tourist attraction place. Head over and read, hers is damn funny! Mine is surely not as “fun” as I’d expected it to be. So what happened to my feet?

cleanme

I walked my tired feet to Rivervale Mall from home that night. It was almost 8 when I reached the place. And they closes at 10pm. Its a new beauty salon with manicure, pedicure, facial and massage services. The place is very nicely designed and gives a very classy feel. A rare sight in a neighborhood mall. So there I went, my feet stepped in and my eyes darted around the place for the price list.

Two ladies were at the counter when I entered and immediately they approached me to see how they can help. Did a recording of the conversation, not very clear cos the phone wasn’t power enough to record surround sound lah. So not putting it up. Else you’ll just hear my super low and irritating voice. Wahahahaha!

The gist of the conversation, is where I asked about the different types of pedicure and then decide on the classic pedi, where later the young lady boss tried upselling to me to the up it to their Spa pedi where they use OPI products and they will apply mask for my leg.

During the process, the lady boss was very friendly and she didn’t hard sell like some other places which I’d been to. I was told to pick the colors before I sat down, hence I couldn’t try the testing of multiple color mission. *FAIL!* -___-|| But I did stood there for the longest time staring at the rows of colors and asked them to suggest the hottest and most popular colors to me. But all the colors they choose kenna rejected by me! Wahahaha! Seriously, I’m not into bright orange, yellow and pink nails leh. Though I rejected their ideas their face didn’t change, still smiling and allowing me to take my time to look at the colors. I am pleased.

Since it was my first time doing pedicure, the clumsy me didn’t know what to do nor where to sit. I almost tripped while getting to the seat and after I sat down, I almost gave the pedicurist a kick on the face! Seriously, if that happened, it WASN’T on purpose!

Shimmer and Shine

My pedicurist was still learning the trades I think, she was taught through the steps for my feet spa session by another lady. Though she is new to the service, she was very professional and did a very good job trimming my super long and ugly toenails and removing the pretty bad layer of cuticles around it. She even asked if I’d not been for pedicure for a long time, then I told her “Erm, its my first time leh.” She gave me the disbelief look! I can imagine she thinking, “Wah! This woman never done pedicure before? She gave her first to me leh!” Ok, I digressed…

Shimmer and Shine

The service by my pedicurist is very good. Through the session, I asked her question when she does something different. For example, when she was scrubbing my feet, I asked why she is doing it and said it tickled. Very tempted to give my leg a jerk but that will be too nasty of me. She was very patient with me and didn’t mind my stupid questions. The lady boss also came back often to check how’s thing going and if everything was alright. Chatted with her while waiting for my nail paint to dry, and got to know that she started this shop with 2 other friends and was previously working at the other mani-padi place just few steps away from her shop. I asked if her boss would mind her snatching away business, but in fact, it was her previous boss that recommended she take up the space for her own business. Very brave ex-boss she has!

And hor, when I was chatting with her, I really ended up damaging my nail paint! My left thumb nail was scratched my my right thumb nail. The lady who painted my nail wasn’t around and had placed back the nail color. So the lady boss had to walk back and forth to find the right shade of color to help me touch up. I feel damn pai say lah! And for the record, this WASN’T done on purpose!

At the end of the session, which lasted almost 2 hours (with express manicure), I was the one who got tired. Asked too many questions already. It was one of my most tiring pedicure session ever lah! My planned to sabo them ended up being a sabo to myself! Wahahaha! But overall I still enjoyed the session very much and will surely be going back for their service whenever I need some pampering on my feet and hands.

The place I went?

Shimmer and Shine
Rivervale Mall, next to Daiso.
(YES! There’s Daiso in Sengkang! Muahahahaha! Ok I digressed again!)

Do you have similar experiences? Or do you have any mission which you hope to try out to test the service quality in Singapore? Head over to Are You Being Served? to read and share experiences.

Sending my feet for a mission

August 27, 2009  |  Beauty Guide  |  24seven, Are You Being Served, Mission, Pedicure, service  |  7 comments

My poor feet has gone through some serious damaging lately. Walking for long hours and distance, chasing for buses, squeezing in those wrapped up shoes, my feet needs some pampering soon!
