ANNA SUI INSPIRED EARRINGS HOLDER, CHIRIMEN FABRIC CASES & ALL THINGS JAPANESE FROM DAISO

After attending Samsung Omnia II presentation, i pop by Daiso and spotted quite a few good bargains. I don't have a habit of posting my purchases as i would feel more guilty for spending but i would like to share some lovely bargains at Daiso though many readers would have spotted them already.

I couldn't resist this Anna Sui inspired Earrings holder, which could display 12 pairs of earrings. An absolute bargain at S$2/-



This Japanese style Chirimen fabric tissue case colourful print caught my attention. I don't usually go for bright colours but this nice and cheery design would stand out amid the dark interior of my handbag, a time saving incentive when im looking for tissue in a hurry.


I had purchased a Chirimen fabric zipper case about 2 months ago from Daiso. Don't they both look kirei ?

This clear hanger reminds me of the clean understated design from Muji . As i have recently moved to my new place in town, i am beginning to look at more household items. This would be handy.

Fancy some pretty cosmetic kitchen sponges ? They look so cute ! I almost wanted to buy but practical me decided to pass and KIV instead although they would look good in the kitchen they might look scruffy after a couple of washing.

Another interesting item is a banana stand. Basically you just hang it on the hook to keep your bananas fresh and blemish free. Again, i passed and KIV as it may take up a little to much space in my kitchen. A little hook on the wall will do the job for the moment.

Lastly, the famous Daiso Soba sauce and soba noodles. I have heard so much about the highly popular Daiso Soba Sauce and its never in stock when i visit Daiso in the past few months since i moved back from London. It must be my lucky day as i finally spotted a dozen. A regular bottle of Soba sauce cost around S$5 easily in a supermarket and at Daiso its only S$2 ! I purchased five bottles of Soba Sauce for my besties and myself. I bought a packet of cha soba as well .

It was a fruitful trip to Daiso today and i will try to pop by more often for excellent value buys.

CHANEL ULTRA CORRECTION LIFT LAUNCH

I was elated to be invited to Chanel exclusive launch party to celebrate Chanel’s latest skincare , Ultra Correction Lift at Takashimaya.

CHANEL had discovered that youthful-looking skin requires more than a boost of collagen and elastin. It also requires tensin, a critical protein, naturally abundant in young skin, that anchors and connects cells to skin's dermal network. CHANEL new Ultra Correction Lift helps to stimulate the production of tensin to its youthful level with an exclusive, powerful ingredient, elemi PFA* , naturally firms and lifts skin from within. With tensin levels restored, and collagen and elastin synthesis intensified to support and fortify skin's newly reconnected network, facial contours appear lifted and redefined and skin achieves a visibly toned and revitalized look.

Chanel Make Up Artist, Cecilia demonstrating the correct way of Ultra Correction skincare application on a guest. After applying Chanel Nano lotion, she used a tissue to lightly dabbed away excessive lotion before applying Ultra Corrective Serum so that our skin wouldn't be too damp and cant absorb the serum. Seems that i have missed this step for my application of Chanel skincare products.

The correct way of applying Ultra Corrective Eye Cream

Cecilia also demonstrated using Chanel latest Autumn Venise Collection. Firstly, she used a makeup base before applying Chanel Lift Lumiere, a foundation that helps to create a lifting effect so that the skin looks firmer and smoother. Application of foundation using a foundation brush will pick up the right amount to ensure natural looking makeup. Use a powder brush to dust on Poudre Douce ( soft pressed powder) to set the foundation.

Next Cecilia uses LES 4 OMBRES Quadra Eye Shadow in Murano, a quartet of moss, pink, sea foam and green shimmer shades, Celadon , a rich emerald green eyeliner, Exceptionnel De Chanel mascara to create volume and curled lashes, LES TISSAGES DE CHANEL(Blush Duo Tweed Effect) and Rouge Allure to create the latest autumn look

Chanel Ultra Correction Serum retails at $210, Day Cream/Fluid with SPF 15 and Night Cream at $205 each. Chanel Ultra Correction Skincare is available at all Chanel Counters now.
