White Day 3.14

Barely 2 mths into the job, it was lucky & timely for me to be involved with

Shiseido's main event of the year - WHITE DAY

 Pretty much to support n help Audrey through it =)
it was large-scale, huge budget pumped - AD at Orchard MRT, including the trains.





Had to prepare and pack doorgifts for the Press

The amazing setup for the 'Whitening Journey' right outside TANGS Orchard

Had makeup + hair styling + photo booth

& pretty ambassadors to pickout passerbys in white for our lucky draw!

We had more going on inside TANGS in the evening!

Guess who?

YES JOANNE PEH, MY OU-XIANG!

So pretty! <3

Our familiar bloggers were there to share some Q&A with the crowd

Yup even the beauty advisors were in white haha! 

Xavier was also involved, his job was to entertain Joanne Peh,

Lucky dude!

okay we both think we look really weird in white.

 i was more than happy to also be e stage usher HEEHEE!

Happy seeing my face with my ou xiang on Shiseido FB!

Audrey had this printed out for me LOL

HAHA this photo is EPIC!

That's our new MD Wada-San!
a MD who truely cares,

 i remember the late OT times where he'll pop by aud, sherie & my seat

to say goodbye to us before he knocks off. 

Team White Day =)

Aud & i with our boss.

Tiring, down to every single minor detail like balloons + bouquet customization, catering, overseeing the setup + event flow.. but great great feeling of accomplishment at the end of the day.

The job just got exciting for me!

***

My job wasnt fully desk-bound yet i put on so much weight!

Thank god i've gotten rid of it and i'm heading to the gym tmr,

still needa work on those bye-bye arms!

Liese Elegant Ash

after spending $100+ at the salon for my last hairdye, thought the change wasnt great.

not impressed, definitely not worth my $.

so i've decided it's DIY this time, darker colour so i dont hv to worry about the roots too often.

Liese, Elegant Ash.

Here's the before pic

and the after pic a week later

though not really even, but it works for that price.

i'll gladly pay for 2 boxes to make it even.

Tippling Club @ Dempsey

It's been awhile since i had an enjoyable dining experience.

Even if it's just for desserts, Tippling club @ dempsey hill blew me away!

everytime an item is presented to you,

 the friendly staff there would introduce the ingredients and inspirations behind it.

Much like a fine-dining concept.

but i've long forgotten most of it thks to my lousy memory!

anw, e white-ish liquid in the tube is actually potato.

interesting way to eat it.

this is not a dessert, it's curry.

the garnishing kinda killed it for me, think it's coriander or something =S

oh yes, i owe a big thank you to Eugene!

thanks to his connections there we got to try all of these for free =)

i asked for a recommendation to a sweet sweet alcoholic drink,

& they gave me apple pie.

haha! the packaging is so cool right?

& the best part is tt it is sweet. didnt feel cheated for once.

this is my FAVOURITE!

a dessert called dempsey hill.

the name says it all, it is inspired the the surroundings of dempsey hill.

i love the combi of the ingrdients used!

 there's pandan and kaya & premium dark choc in it.

this is my version of exquisite taste =P

<3

yoghurt & fruits? cant remember! hee.

but according to them this dish is actually very popular, ppl prefer it over 'dempsey hill'

WHY?!

this item totally got me listening.

whiskey coke.

i'm not kidding!

the white solid foam is actually whiskey placed in this special machine where all the moisture would be suck out to transform it to this state. AMAZING RIGHT!

& coke is the jello-like thingy in between of cos.

i'll like to have 10! imagine getting drunk with this! 

white choc tablets <3

some sort of fizzy sweet i'll nv bear to spend my $ on, but cool exp.

here's the interior of the restaurant.

it is extremely cozy, go on a weekday to have the place all to urself.

there were a couple more choc desserts but i didnt manage to take photos.

i'm not too sure about the price range, but according to Eugene he said if we're gonna go for dinner u'll be forking out about $150 - $250 per person for a 10 course food tasting.

rough guage in price? we paid about $60 for the two desserts below.

trust me u'll b happy to part w your $ =P

Food tasting @ Empire State

Supposedly a food tasting session with the ZA Marketing Team at e pre-opening of Empire State @ Causeway point. 

We were allowed to pick anything on the menu, unfortunately only Sam & I could make it down.

The rest of them were held up at the previous event. So our tiny stomach could only try the very few items below. =(

Clam chowder - thumbs up*

can nv go wrong.

Sam ordered this prawn base thingy.

errr.. i really dont fancy it cos the 'xin wei' was too strong for me.

but she calls it exquisite taste =/

decided to order a crab paste pasta.

quite a unique taste, havent tried anything like tt.

& the portion is crazy huge, could barely finish half.

+ if i didnt remember wrongly i found close to 8 shrimps in the pasta!

thumbs up for grp sharing!

Sam ordered Steak, likewise she couldnt finish it haha.

i guess it's partly bcoz we wanted to share the recommended dessert =)

Here it is!

Ice cream n brownie soaked in choc, SLURP!

& HERE'S THE UPCLOSE heehee...

wish we could try more side dishes but we baozhar alrdy! =(

Cle de peau Beaute 's Extra Rich Lipstick

Now that i've got more freetime on hand.. i'll spend more time w my loveblog =)

Might do some posts on the products i got while i'm with my previous job.

Here's the first:

Cle de peau Beaute 's Extra Rich Lipstick

The name says it all!

definitely e richest i've come across,

i'll say it's worth its $100+ price tag.

Those who dont know, CPB is pretty much a Tai-Tai brand with its STAR product -

the fabulous 'La Creme' retailing at S$800+!

I've seen the result of the la creme on a colleague suffering from eczema, 

it works & tt's e product i'll be retaining my youth w when i'm 47.

Pls let me b rich enough to afford tt $_$

 

I kinda dab the pigmentation on my lower lip for the last photo, which explains the blotchiness.

Didnt know it'll show so clearly on the photo aft i upload it through my phone.

Picked up this tip from the makeup trainers:

Girls with thick lips can carry the intense red lips by dabbing on the color pigmentation instead of spreading it. it'll soften the intensity so we wont have tt swollen sausage lips.
