Instead of keeping quiet while your friends and family are thinking of whether to head for CNY meals, or suggesting heavy dining places, be the hero and suggest STEAMBOAT! By choosing steamboat, you will be able to control the amount of proteins and carbs (which I'll be covering in the next point). Pick the items with as little seasoning as possible and non-fried. Lastly, avoid drinking the soup! :D</center>

<b>2. Proteins over carbs</b></center>

<b><br /></b></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Always always go for the proteins instead of carbs. Firstly, they don't bloat your stomach as much as carbs. Secondly, they are quality nutrients and helps your body to recover and build lean muscles when you fulfil the next point that I'll be covering. So, whack the proteins and of course, go for the leanest of the lot and avoid the fried ones!</center>

I remembered wanting to workout during the first day of CNY last year and we din have the time to head to the gym because we needed to help my mum prepare for the dinner. So I got Jason to head down to the void deck and do a workout with me (since it was drizzling). Well, all you need is 15 mins or even less for a quick HIIT workout. Ran out of ideas for your workout, you've got the best companion ever on your mobile phones, the Nike+ Training Club app!</center>

My close friends and family will already know that I don't like to eat Ba Kwa so I guess this isn't much of a concern for me. But if your favourite CNY goodie is the Ba Kwa, instead of reaching for them all the time, why not try the recently-launched Crispy M from Fragrance! I swear by it since the first time I tried it! Its not really Ba Kwa though there is some similar taste, but its a good replacement and less fattening and yummy (at least for me)! </center>

If you love your friends and family, you will care and share the calories too right? Instead of finishing a serving at one time, share that piece of kueh lapis with your friends and/or family! Split the love and still enjoy the goodies! :P</center>

Have a blessed reunion and Lunar New Year everyone and I hope you will be able to stay in shape this year onwards! Huat ah! :D</center>

At least from the outside, there isn’t much to complain about my skin. However, if you look closely at my skin, I have very sensitive skin and my skin is really thin. Therefore, there is a limit to the amount and type of treatment I can put my skin through. As I have mentioned before about how my skin gets into breakouts and hives during specific treatments, this is usually a main concern for me.<br />
<br />
I was invited to <b>The Urban Clinic</b> for a consultation with Dr Yanni Xu at the end of October last year and she very patiently listened to all my concerns about my skin. As compared to Jason’s skin, my skin is on the dry side and highly sensitive so it shows very much when I get a blood rush after a long day of work, or post workout.<br />

<b>TUC</b> is located at Raffles City Shopping Centre, just outside the clinic is the taxi stand. Jason and I love how the clinic doesn’t feel and look like a clinic with its modern and edgy interior.<br />

This is one of my favorite area because it’s almost like I’m preparing to go on a Moulin Rouge stage, HAHA. This is where the assistant will remove my sunscreen before taking 3D photos for the consultation.<br />

<br />
This gorgeous lady is Dr Yanni Xu and aside from her qualifications and awards lays lies a doctor who is passionate and down to earth. She is patient and sincere, almost like a sister that I never had. Most of all, she has flawless skin, which I thought was an important asset as a role model to her patients. I was really inspired to achieve the same flawless skin that I always thought I’d never achieve.<br />
<br />
Before every scheduled consultation with Dr Yanni, her assistants will use a super cool 3D camera to document and analyse my face. During the first consultation, Dr Yanni Xu prescribed a fully-customised set of treatments to target the specific problem areas, which for me were was the bumps on my forehead.<br />
<br />

Well, the above photo (taken in mid Oct last year) was already a filtered image so you can only imagine how bad it looks in person. I cannot recall since when, but the bumps had been bothering me for a very long time. The redness made the bumps look worse post workout or at the end of the day after work.<br />
<br />
<b>Excel V Laser</b><br />
<br />
Among other treatments that was prescribed to me by Dr Yanni Xu, which includes <b>Lasemd</b> (you can check out <a href="http://jasonjuliuslim.blogspot.sg/" target="_blank">Jason’s blog entry</a> for more info), <b>Excel V</b> is my favorite!<br />
<br />

<b>TUC</b> is one of 10 clinics in South East Asia to have the <b>Excel V</b> laser. This superior USA technology is the newest and best for treating “red” skin conditions such as acne and rosacea, which is perfect for me since my skin gets red easily.<br />
<br />
The coolview handpiece handpience on <b>Excel V</b> is a green laser and improves by closing the abnormal blood vessels that cause redness, inflammation and flushing. Laser genesis is another function of the Excel V laser that stimulates collagen whilst gently removing pigmentation and redness from skin. This mild laser in combination with patented “Ara peel”’ technology produces immediate radiance and anti-aging of skin. Over 2 treatments, my skin tone looks more radiant, glows and most importantly, the redness and bumps on my forehead has lessened sooo much!<br />

Me looking mighty happy after <b>Excel V</b> laser because there is very very minimal downtime. There is no numb cream needed, very minimal discomfort and laser only takes around 15 – 20 minutes!<br />

Left photo was taken after a workout, photo on the right was taken after a full day of work and workout in the midday (with face washed once post workout). This is what I meant by the redness post workout and after a long day. However, there is only redness on my cheeks in the photo on the right, very minimal on my forehead now! The bumps are also a lot less visible which is very very ideal! :P Coupled with the basic products from <b>TUC</b>, I’m very pleased with the results as of now and will continue to go for treatments with Dr Yanni too!<br />
<br />
<b>TUC</b> also provides other treatments and you can find out more over at the <a href="https://tuc.com.sg/" target="_blank">website</a>.<br />

set of the Jabra Elite Sport that I have been eyeing since I came across an
introductory video of it and I was very excited to try it out for myself! The
reason behind my excitement was the mere fact that it’s a combination of a
fitness tracker and music player in one device. Hold your horses as I share
more features about the Jabra Elite Sport that I love!<o:p></o:p></span></div>

needed no adjustment throughout my run. Its also sweat proof so it doesn’t

sessions in the gym too and they’re perfect because the earbuds are equipped
with 2 microphones each – one for talking, and the other captures and cancels
background noise, ensuring superior music and call quality. I truly appreciate
this feature during my workouts in the gym because I hate to be disturbed when
I workout on my own.</span></div>

I’m gonna share about is super cool because not only can it tell my heart rate

covered and if this particular workout is improving my fitness level (in

you on when to start the sets and rest. Superb! The app is also constantly

I start my day really early sometimes and having to spend at least 1 hour blow-drying and styling my hair is such a hassle. Thank goodness for dry shampoos, they save me on days when I don’t have time to wash my hair (oops!).<br />
<br />
<b>COLAB™ Sheer+Invisible range</b><br />

<br />
The Sheer+Invisible range from COLAB™ provides a runway-ready formula that absorbs oil and refreshes roots with a residue-free, lightweight finish. I have personally tried other dry shampoos before, and some of them leave a white powdery finish on my hair, which makes my hair look like its gone through a powder bath, but COLAB™ doesn’t. This range comes in 4 signature fashion fragrances and the NEW YORK one is my favourite!<br />

Other than busy, early mornings (which I try to avoid not washing my hair), the best time to use the dry shampoo is post-workout. Especially when my days are long and I don’t have the luxury of time to wash and blow-dry my hair in the gym toilets, I’d say, dry shampoos come in super handy! It’s easy to use and light enough for me to put in my daily gym bag. I make sure I have one can with me all the time.<br />

<b>Application</b><br />
<br />
Shake the can well; hold the can about 20cm away from hair and spray on the roots. Massage through if you like, and style your hair as usual. My hair is always up in a ponytail or bun most days of the week and throughout the day so its really easy!<br />

Jason owns a sports and fitness company, Team Axis Pte Ltd, so a good boot space always come into good use to transport equipment.<br />
<br />
When Volkswagen contacted me for a weekend drive, I was really hoping to get a ride where I have never tried before, something out of our list of cars to own. And here’s the car we got for the weekend, the amazing Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet!!<br />
<br />
<b>The Specs </b><br />

<b><br /></b>
<b>The Look</b><br />
<br />
With the large amount of car models in Singapore, not many models can leave a deep impression. But that is totally untrue with the Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet. Since its debut in 1985, the Golf Cabriolet has proven to be a successful and trendy model.<br />
<br />

</tbody></table>
31 years on, the Golf Cabriolet remains current and just as appealing with a touch of advanced technology. At the front of the car, onlookers will be drawn to the distinctive LED headlights. I love the design flow of the LED headlights and the front grilles, giving it a very simple but sporty feel.

<br />
<b>The Cabin</b><br />
<br />
Jason has changed 3 cars over the period of 6 years and the cabin has always been black. But not for the Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet. This car is decked with sporty red leather seats, creating a really vibrant cabin experience.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYkx6seLn31vAdZVIDoBRy4v3YxHvcBSeb15uqlZvW4J38tLV1Hs_KucVL84poEc35PJ9BNngqfhRHZ0QuxNljbftRiHHZec3XB16-9mrLcCd5Riq_fZ_88sKx4d72YICDNHKWtJ8cEzI/s1600/VW+16.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiYkx6seLn31vAdZVIDoBRy4v3YxHvcBSeb15uqlZvW4J38tLV1Hs_KucVL84poEc35PJ9BNngqfhRHZ0QuxNljbftRiHHZec3XB16-9mrLcCd5Riq_fZ_88sKx4d72YICDNHKWtJ8cEzI/s640/VW+16.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Apart from the nice and clean cabin design, it is very spacious as well. This car has no problem fetching passengers at the back.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<b>The Ride</b><br />
<br />
Jason is currently driving the 2016 BMW X1 and so the ride experience has been relatively high. The cabin is also very spacious due to the high head room. But nothing beats a car that has its top down! The feeling is out of this world, okay at least out of Singapore! Those roads that we drive up and down on a daily basis now becomes a breath of fresh air. I was able to hear, feel and smell the surroundings and this feeling is extraordinary.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9TgZzKRZGmWZ0PyvsclkWzM-2Rv_G9wGxNkvOVWio-gti79JyiinbxWGSO2TlC91azMTDTtzDx5BZeuiL_o8aw6T_TJs89MAg8VYcbFCS36mHnTkCbVgL3lGk8N_8nCWL3lbatA0jHlc/s1600/VW+1.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9TgZzKRZGmWZ0PyvsclkWzM-2Rv_G9wGxNkvOVWio-gti79JyiinbxWGSO2TlC91azMTDTtzDx5BZeuiL_o8aw6T_TJs89MAg8VYcbFCS36mHnTkCbVgL3lGk8N_8nCWL3lbatA0jHlc/s640/VW+1.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
According to Jason, the Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet is a really easy car to drive and I could feel it. Within minutes, Jason started to drive the car faster and tackling corners with joy. I could also see a constant smile on his face, the usual expression when he’s having a lot of fun! :) Almost like a boy in a candy store. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
As for me, I really like the design of the car seat. It keeps me snuggly in place through the fast corners and really makes me feel safe. I also love to hear how the 1.4 DSG Turbo engine sounds at higher RPM. The punchy engine gives the ride lots of character and we simply love it.<br />

We both knew we needed some form of storage, especially for the new items.<br />
<br />
Our partnership with <b>EBC Storage</b> started last year but because our home key collection date was delayed so we could procrastinate a little before things get really busy this year. We started purchasing our appliances as soon as we collected our keys and with the existing belongings at my bro’s place right now, the storage space at <b>EBC</b> really came in handy, before we start hoarding my room and the storeroom at my bro’s place.<br />
<br />
<b>EBC Self Storage</b><br />
<br />
<b>EBC Self Storage</b> is located at <b>EBC Lifestyle Hub</b> (which I will be elaborating later) and the building originally offered warehouse solutions since the 1980s and now has evolved to offer a range of storage and office solutions. The growing needs of self-serviced storage resulted in the establishment of <b>EBC Storage</b>. It offers standard, air-conditioned, wine storage and unique items storage. <b>EBC Storage</b> is the place to go for self serviced storage (especially for e-commerce businesses such as fashion blog shops and young entrepreneurs that are working from home).<br />
<br />
Well this works really well for J because of the ample storage space that is air-conditioned. They also offer services such as transport and pick and pack.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
<b>EBC</b> also provided us with sturdy boxes that we could pre-pack our items from individual homes in, really saves the trouble of having to look for empty boxes.<br />
<br />

Moved some of the bigger boxes to <b>EBC</b> the other day. The smaller boxes are still waiting to be filled to the brim before we move.<br />

<br />
The storage space is really spacious! This is a space of about 35sqft.We also moved some of the kitchen appliances into the storage and had fun at the walkway while waiting for the super friendly lady at the <b>EBC</b> reception counter to loan us a lock (which we forgotten to prepare: P). Thankful that it’s air-conditioned!<br />

<br />
<b>Day 3</b><br />
<br />
Well.. if you have been following me in my IG and Dayre, you would have noticed that I injured my foot on Day 2 so J stayed back on the third day to accompany me since I couldn’t join the rest of the group in Crocodile Park and Wild Water Adventure. That didn’t dampen our moods at all!<br />
<br />
We headed down for breakfast early that morning and had a long chat with the Regional Director of the Philippine Department of Tourism (everyone calls him ‘RD’) as well as the Hotel Manager of Seda Abreeza Hotel. RD then offered to bring us out for lunch! So we headed down to the gym for a quick workout before meeting RD at the lobby.<br />
<br />

The gym is small but equipped enough for us since we are so used to working out when we travel.

<br />
RD brought us to this restaurant called Balik Bukid, which means back to the farm. Everything that they serve are all organic, either from the farm or right outside the restaurant where they grow some simpler herbs and spices.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
The other sides of the walls adjacent to the main entrance were filled with empty bottles and cement. According to RD, these are way sturdier that concrete walls and its also really pretty to allow natural sunlight into the restaurant during the day. J and I love this!<br />
<br />

<br />
The whole restaurant is filled with bamboo, especially the roof and it cools the temperature of the restaurant down that its scorching hot on the street yet it feels like there is air-conditioning when we stepped into the restaurant.<br />

These are some of my favourite dishes that we ordered. Everything is homemade and very yummy! We had homemade bread, home grown fresh vegetables that are sent to the restaurant every single morning, homemade and naturally coloured blue rice and homemade vanilla icecream! Yummms!<br />

All thanks to this lovely couple who painstakingly started this restaurant, and RD, whom very kindly took time off to bring us here for lunch! :D<br />
<br />
After lunch, RD brought us to the biggest church, San Pedro Cathedral in Davao. We said a little prayer at the side as there was a wedding matrimony going on there and left the church after purchasing a little souvenir just outside the church.<br />

I’ve had many friends and clients who have had orthopedic surgery and so many horror stories about the various injuries because of ligament and tendon tears. Coincidentally, I was recovering from my tendon repair surgery and so I attended the talk with some burning questions in mind hoping to get some answers.<br />
<br />
<b>OrthoSports Clinic</b><br />
<br />
<b>OrthoSports</b> Clinic is situated at Mount Elizabeth Novena and offers specialized services for patients with sports and non-sports related orthopedic issues. A recognized clinic in Singapore, the orthopedic specialists and surgeons work with individuals who suffer from knee and shoulder problems as well as sports injuries. They work very closely with a team of physiotherapists too, to assure the best possible rehabilitation regimes. In cases where surgeries are needed, they perform them via arthroscopic (keyhole) or the minimal invasive surgery.<br />
<br />
<b>OrthoSports Talk</b><br />
<br />
The talk was given by the 3 surgeons from the clinic and they covered 3 main topics, sports injuries, osteoporosis, and foot issues (heel spurs, bunions and flat feet).<br />
<br />
<i>Sports Injuries</i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg16lk3ueoLp2Pcdukc-mt_d3N8i9od61-DF8ameQ-lX6aeQwZfC1ky6GfMcBW22yGHbIecZHq2EVY3Xi4nmQWz6SjCh1_aZ0WgaWTH-yIfQRvdwBhX3_GunNNYd1SwJsXS4TTgJGnuSBM/s1600/1.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="472" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg16lk3ueoLp2Pcdukc-mt_d3N8i9od61-DF8ameQ-lX6aeQwZfC1ky6GfMcBW22yGHbIecZHq2EVY3Xi4nmQWz6SjCh1_aZ0WgaWTH-yIfQRvdwBhX3_GunNNYd1SwJsXS4TTgJGnuSBM/s640/1.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
Dr Ang Kian Chuan covered sports injuries and highlighted some of the common injuries suffered during accidents while doing a particular sports or extreme sports. I’ve had clients who have had surgery done prior to training with me and so I know the importance of muscles strengthening work around the injured area to aid in recovery post surgery. What a lot of people don’t know is exactly this. Strengthening the muscles around the injured areas is very crucial to prevent subsequent problems on the same injured area. Of course, you need to only be able to do muscle-strengthening exercises once you regain your range of motion and always check with your doctors and physiotherapists.<br />
<br />
<i>Osteoporosis</i><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Dr David Paul Bell covered the topic of Osteoporosis, which I was pretty concerned about. Generally, women begin an expedited process of bone degeneration from the age of 50 onwards. However in recent years, we also noticed men facing bone issues as early as women do. Calcium is a mineral that is best consumed and absorbed during the building years. Vitamin D also contributes to the health and strength of our bones.<br />
<br />
So I asked Dr David Bell if its too late to be stocking my body with Calcium and Vitamin D now that I’m moving into my 30s. He mentioned that though it may be too late to push that age of bone degeneration to a later age, it can definitely postpone the effects of it. So if you are below the age of 29 and are reading this, please have balanced diet especially with more calcium and Vitamin D! :P

<i>Heel spurs, Flatfeet & Bunions</i><br />

Dr Tan Ken Jin covered another pressing issue in Singapore and showed us some examples of how these conditions look like. These issues do not only occur with the old, Dr Tan shared some of his younger patients who are as young as 12 years old and they can be treated with minimal scars! Feel free to contact the clinic if you happen to know of somebody who is suffering from these problems.

<u><i>Heel Spurs</i></u><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaJWUaDta0MPd_8kattx_yj50sbk0JwOaGvcTbXHE6c4lq8EG_i-vNBKnIjNDBTb0Nc5ShOqzPXdPnN7YxNJE9S1kVphXoaB_RdkwY4YKpyZCCB1dEBn-WED1Biz7M79JhJA7a10RcFpA/s1600/Heel-spurs-9.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="243" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgaJWUaDta0MPd_8kattx_yj50sbk0JwOaGvcTbXHE6c4lq8EG_i-vNBKnIjNDBTb0Nc5ShOqzPXdPnN7YxNJE9S1kVphXoaB_RdkwY4YKpyZCCB1dEBn-WED1Biz7M79JhJA7a10RcFpA/s400/Heel-spurs-9.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
A heel spur is a pointed bony outgrowth of the bone of the heel (the calcaneus bone). They are attributed to chronic local inflammation at the insertion of soft-tissue tendons or fascia in the area. Heel spurs can be located at the back of the heel or under the heel, beneath the sole of the foot. Heel spurs at the back of the heel are frequently associated with inflammation of the Achilles tendon (tendinitis) and cause tenderness and pain at the back of the heel made worse while pushing off the ball of the foot.<br />
<br />
I was pretty interested in this because I’ve heard of heel spurs related to plantar fasciitis, which has occurred to me before and reoccurred since I started wearing the air boot during the recovery of my injury. Proper massaging of the fascia, stretching of the calf muscles and icing my Achilles tendon (since I’ve been suspected of tendonitis on the right Achilles tendon) when I feel the ache have elevated the discomfort tremendously.<br />
<br />
<u><i>Flatfeet</i></u><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjhnj6sAFEjrK9qHT-HkW1_mA6exmKtGrgxyo1Qryo6UDfKKS_WVta2_r7XMSz9jyNwJCFrVHGiEJEB8DqZp0P4xR73Nupj2Le8HnQI8bgevMFGMs_RFJD2EMsHJC-3aiojxcNtyq7FyY/s1600/flat_feet_main.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="258" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjjhnj6sAFEjrK9qHT-HkW1_mA6exmKtGrgxyo1Qryo6UDfKKS_WVta2_r7XMSz9jyNwJCFrVHGiEJEB8DqZp0P4xR73Nupj2Le8HnQI8bgevMFGMs_RFJD2EMsHJC-3aiojxcNtyq7FyY/s640/flat_feet_main.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
If you think you have flatfeet or flatfoot, it is when the arches on the inside of your foot is flattened, allowing the entire sole of your foot to touch the floor when you stand up. A common and usually painless condition, flatfeet can occur when the arches don't develop during childhood. In other cases, flatfeet develop after an injury or from the simple wear-and-tear stresses of age.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4ogsdaQWhBznPC1USEnRC1eMNgxaCUBGbQ5hgx4pM5vVRexQRcZ9sFEwEW5nHw-t2gDqt0SHlBUb_R4sh6BERhEF-ElG1g2pPtUzaHNbj2Wz40FUe3-_PluAEykKwh7rylHCZMAjMQA4/s1600/flat-foot.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="245" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4ogsdaQWhBznPC1USEnRC1eMNgxaCUBGbQ5hgx4pM5vVRexQRcZ9sFEwEW5nHw-t2gDqt0SHlBUb_R4sh6BERhEF-ElG1g2pPtUzaHNbj2Wz40FUe3-_PluAEykKwh7rylHCZMAjMQA4/s400/flat-foot.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br />
Flatfeet can sometimes contribute to problems in your ankles and knees because the condition can alter the alignment of your legs. The weight shift causes excessive pronation of your foot and often leads to more serious problems as the person ages with weight gain.<br />
<br />
<u><i>Bunions</i></u><br />

Bunions are bony bumps that develop at the joint of the big toe. They may be painless or aching, slightly unsightly or increasingly deforming. Bunions widen feet and narrow shoe choices, dooming people to a lifetime of sensible flats with roomy toe boxes. For some people, bunions are no bother, but for others, bunions hamper mobility, reduce activity and affect their quality of life.<br />
<br />
We ended the session with food and refreshments kindly catered by the clinic and I’m glad to be able to learn so much from it!<br />

The event was held at the OSIM Headquarters , 65 Ubi Ave 1, S(408939) on the 8th June 2016. I invited J to come with me so we rushed home to change out before heading for the event. We were welcomed by ushers who showed us in to the building and the place was very prettily decorated with flower petals. Canapés were being served while waiting for the presentation and reveal of the new uLove chair, guests could order cocktails and a mocktail, and there was a pretty dessert table and a live harp performance.<br />

We were told that there will be an experience zone where we will get to try the new uLove chair for half hour and that was going to be my first try on a massage chair so I was really looking forward to that, especially after my workout. We hung around, took some photos before the reveal began.<br />

The presentation started shortly and introduced Fan Bingbing as the international ambassador, and briefly went through the functions of the new <b>OSIM uLove 白马王子</b>.<br />

We headed in to the experience zone after the presentation. The room was dark so we could totally relax and enjoy the functions of the new chair. All I remembered was it felt like somebody massaging me especially on the shoulders when the rollers moved according to the contours of the shape of my shoulders, then I fell into a quick nap before I woke up towards the end of the session. It was sooo good the massage mimics that of a real masseur except you are in the comfort of your own home or office! :P<br />
<br />
<b>Major functions of the OSIM uLove白马王子</b><br />
<br />
What I specially love about the new chair is the shoulder massage and the long-track massage!<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
This is the part where it mimics the hands of a masseur with the V-Hand with 720° Roller balls. Having overactive traps have caused me to ache very much around the neck down to the shoulders so this was definitely the favourite part of the massage chair because the V-Hand massage emulates the agile hand-grip of a professional masseur.<br />
<br />

The long-track massage is another unique function of the OSIM new massage chair as it reaches as much of the posterior of your body from the head to the bum and slight hamstrings area. It’d be perfect for me right after legs day! :P<br />
<br />
We headed over to the lifestyle zone and checked out the other colours of the chair.<br />

It was our first time in Philippines and I can guarantee this would not be our last! Those raves about how nice Philippines is were real! This was also that one chance we got to know more about the then-mayor of Davao City and now-president of Philippines – Rodrigo Duterte. :D<br />
<br />
<b>Cebu Pacific Air</b><br />
<br />
In December 2015, Cebu Pacific Air launched its new route directly to Davao and we were so privileged to be on this trip hosted by Cebu Pacific Air and the Philippine Department of Tourism, which very warmly brought us around. Cebu Pacific Air has flown ober 125 million passengers and counting since March 1996 and they are known for its very Filipino culture of fun through punny advertisements, inflight games and safety demo dances.<br />
<br />
Recently celebrated its 20th Anniversary in March 2016, Cebu Pacific Air also launched its new cabin crew uniforms which looked so cute!<br />

We gathered at the check-in counter awaiting the rest of the bloggers and I was having mixed feelings to be honest. I was really excited yet exhaustion was kicking in for real, after a long 4 days of non-stop working out, lol.<br />

We boarded the plane shortly after checking in and I was starving by then! Our pre-selected meals were served as soon as the plane reached cruising altitude. Not too shabby for plane food, I quickly gobbled down the food before preparing for my nap! :P<br />

<b>Davao City, Philippines</b><br />
<br />
Davao is the <b>gateway to the southern Philippines</b>, a hub of commerce, industry and transportation in the southern Mindanao region. It is a premier <b>eco-adventure destination</b>, with many outdoor activities on offer ranging from river-rafting to sky-cycling. Tourists also often stop by Davao City to get to the nearby islands or highlands.<br />
<br />
We arrived in Davao in the middle of the night at about 2-3am so we headed straight to Park Inn by Radisson Hotel to rest before a long day.<br />
<br />
<b>Day 1</b><br />
<br />
Woke up to a bright Monday in Davao and we were headed for Eden Nature Park after breakfast at Park Inn.<br />

The halo halo is apparently really popular in Davao and its like their version of the Korean bingsu since its milky. Too sweet for my liking!<br />
<br />
After lunch, we headed for a mini tour around the area and stopped by to look at some traditional bamboo houses. These houses made of bamboos are well ventilated and really windy and airy despite the scorching weather!<br />

I was really nervous because I cannot even cycle on the ground! But I went straight for the sky instead! HAHA. I have no idea how I got the guts to say, “lets go!” I guess the trick is to not think too much and JUST DO IT! That was a #betterforit moment for sure!<br />

It was super fun! Not as bad as I thought, really and everything (inclusive of the sky rider) costs less than SGD10, its definitely a MUST-TRY!<br />
<br />
Next up was Sky Rider and here’s a short clip of me on it. I took a shorter version of this zip-lining in Sentosa last November and I almost chickened out then. this time, I went, “OMG so fun I wanna do it again!”. Another #betterforit moment! :D<br />

With Danone YoghurtI have always enjoyed my diary since young and I love to have my milk and yoghurt as plain (and white) as possible. When Danone sent me the yoghurt to sample, my eyes lit up when I saw the honey one! I could not wait to try it! :P<br />
<br />
I recently went on a staycation with J and we worked out in the 24-hours gym (so awesome!) one of the nights. It was around 11pm when we finished our workout and we don’t really have a habit of eating supper so we decided to get some strawberries, granola and Danone Yoghurt for our post workout meal. J really dislikes yogurt, milk and cheese products in general so I thought I would have a hard time persuading him to try but he ended up enjoying the strawberry version, which is my 2nd favourite! :D<br />
<br />
<b>Is Yoghurt for post workout good?</b><br />
<br />
Yes, why not? The muscles in our body are depleted of amino acids after a workout so we will require ample amount of proteins to assist in recovery. Yoghurt in general contains a good amount (depending on your type of workout) of <b>protein</b>, <b>low in fat and carbohydrates</b>, topped with <b>berries for anti-oxidants</b> and <b>calcium for healthy bones</b>. My choice, anytime ever since I tried my first!<br />

I know it sounds really cliché but I really grew up eating <b>Danone Yoghurt</b>, just not sure if I’ve been eating this range of Greek Yoghurt. But my mum, who is also a fan of diary, used to stock up on yoghurt and milk every week so I always have a constant supply at home growing up (until recent years with her obsession with kefir).<br />
<br />
I love it that <b>Danone Ultimate Greek Yoghurt</b> is made from <b>100% Australian milk</b> (I love the raw/original milk taste!) and the fruits within each serving are <b>ultra fresh fruits</b> and not dried fruits! Also, the yoghurt is ultra thick and creamy! So yummy! It comes in<b> 5 flavours</b>: <b>Blueberry</b>, <b>Raspberry</b> & <b>White chocolate</b>, <b>Black Cherry</b>, <b>Strawberry</b> and <b>Honey</b>.<br />

This is my favourite and I finished it so quickly that I had to buy a new set to take more photos! :P The honey version! As mentioned, I really like milk and yoghurt products as plain as possible so I cannot stop raving about the honey flavor! Simply add granola with fresh strawberries if you wanna have it like a parfait, so easy!<br />

Our sports towel collection is huge and I could always quickly throw out those I did not fancy using mainly because of the coarseness and weight of the towels. I was thrilled to receive my very first set of customized towels from Uchino! Best of all, they customized a set for J too!<br />

The sokkan series towels given to me are made of 100% cotton. What’s more, it is manufactured through Uchino’s patented technology for its quick dry + antibacterial effect. This aids in reducing the occurrence of unpleasant smell caused by indoor drying in Singapore’s humid weather. A good choice for people who does their laundry at night, isn’t it? Not only that, I love how Uchino towels are so soft to touch and its super lightweight makes it so easy for me to bring around to the gyms and out! Also, after one wash, there was no problem at all with the absorbency of water. This was also the first time getting towels with my name embroidered on so I really love it!<br />
<br />
I even brought the sports towels with me to Perth and to the gym because they are so lightweight, compact and absorbent!<br />

Despite not suffering from any pain yet, I have been taking glucosamine supplements on a regular basis to prevent premature joint injury/problem!<br />
<br />

Our joints carry our weight and allow us to move effortlessly through our daily lives, but there is very little awareness that our joints deteriorate with age. Everyday movement such as walking and climbing can increase the wear and tear of our joints which lead to joint aches and pains.<br />
<br />
Did you know that according to SingHealth*, the most common form of joint pains (Osteoarthritis), affects an estimated 40% of the adult population? Of these, only 10% seek medical advice!<br />
<br />
Joint pains can be emotionally frustrating and depressing as they cause physical discomfort and restrict daily activities. Joint health does not discriminate and can affect us at any point of our life, even at a young age. Taking early precautions to protect our joints will allow us to continue the active lifestyle that we love and enjoy!<br />

I switch from my regular glucosamine supplements to BRAND’S® ActivMove recently since I was sent a pack try out! Let me share more about the supplements with you!<br />
<br />
BRAND’S® ActivMove with Flexi-Boost® is formulated as a total solution for joint maintenance and protection. It provides 360° joint protection as it supplies our joints with nutrients, protects our joints from further deterioration and promotes self-repair!<br />
<br />
BRAND’S® ActivMove with Flexi-Boost® formulation contains UC-II® and Hydrolyzed Type II Collagen that alleviates joint pain to help you perform at your best. UC-II® (40mg) has been scientifically proven to be 2X more effective than glucosamine hydrochloride and chondroitin sulfate combined!<br />

Enough of the facts and technical terms, BRAND’S® ActivMove will be a great addition to your daily supplement, not limited to just the elderly. Joint problems can occur in youths and adults alike, who like myself, participate in regular rigorous physical activities indoor and outdoor.<br />

Few months back, I had the privilege to do a photoshoot with ZAN Magazine to feature a series of 4 editions of workouts and it was a first time for me, before I was approached to do another video and photoshoot with SAF. </center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
We headed one afternoon to the photographer's place and I was happily admiring and wow-ing at the industrial theme in his home. Love how raw and earthy everything looked, though its not something I would like for my upcoming home. Still pretty! We started the shoot soon after and it was a breeze, I was very glad!</center>
<br />
We started with the different workouts for different editions, targeting different body parts every month for 4 issues. It was just simple bodyweight workouts that you can do at home on your own! Will show you guys the actual workouts at the end of the post so stay tuned!<br />

Allow me to reiterate the main benefits of calcium:<br />
- helps build strong teeth<br />
- avoid risk of Osteoporosis<br />
- bone health to give us the freedom to move<br />
- needed for muscles to function<br />

As mentioned time and time again, Calcium is key for all ages and we really need to start taking care of our bones while we are still young! The Anlene Concentrate is very convenient for me, especially on early mornings when sleep is more important than waking at 4-5am to prepare breakfast. I put 1-2 packets of the Anlene Concentrate into my bag I’m ready to go! It will be perfect for busy-working women and PMEBs, no more finding excuse of not having enough time for a quick breakfast! </div>

J and I tried both versions and I like that there isn’t too much foam upon usage of both toothpastes! My lips and area around the lips tend to swell up after use when the toothpastes that I use are too minty or strong, since I have very sensitive skin. The Nighttime toothpaste leaves my teeth feeling clean, breath fresh and no damage to my skin and lips!<br />
<br />
On top of that, J and I had no bad breath upon waking up and it’s these little things that makes my mornings extra sweet when I can kiss J in the morning without fearing that I will scare him with my usual morning bad breath! :D<br />

I am really excited to review a fitness tracker that now provides this touch of feminine and fashion because this is what I really stand for. Though I’m may be in workout attire every day, I am always trying to accessorise myself to keep myself fashionable and I was so impressed when I received the Polar LOOP Crystal!<br />

Designed to be an attractive bracelet couple with fitness tracking functions, the Loop Crystal is embellished with 30 Swarovski® crystals in polished steel bezels and features a textured crisp white customizable bracelet.<br />
<br />
But are the functions as good as it looks, let us find out now….<br />
<br />
<b><u>Activity tracker & Inactivity Alert</u></b><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsr9hQBmtWOrrfbM8TkkyoO-9yqNT5ftnhrZSBcIBUqkNEffjo1DKiM5ElYKYKbKj8oMvyCWWU-OiBS5Nm6D4pfJyF4gjXWZmZs5lPPdoKIOxzdwyxC6OkIx3R_nU81mVtOl3Kso7Cefk/s1600/unnamed-2+copy.png" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgsr9hQBmtWOrrfbM8TkkyoO-9yqNT5ftnhrZSBcIBUqkNEffjo1DKiM5ElYKYKbKj8oMvyCWWU-OiBS5Nm6D4pfJyF4gjXWZmZs5lPPdoKIOxzdwyxC6OkIx3R_nU81mVtOl3Kso7Cefk/s640/unnamed-2+copy.png" width="358" /></a></div>
<br />
As I’m wearing the Polar LOOP the whole day, the band picks up my activity level throughout the day. To take this a step further, I will be able to see the pockets of time throughout the day I’m more prone to inactivity, and plan to a bit more with the inactivity alert vibration function.<br />
<br />
<b><u>Sleep Function</u></b><br />
<br />
With my long working hours, I always reach home feeling really tired. What is really important for me will be to have a quality night’s rest so that I can rise up the next day feeling energetic.<br />
<br />
The Polar LOOP automatically tracks the duration of my sleep and shows in the Polar Flow app and web service how restful my sleep has been. The band assesses my sleep quality based on my wrist movements.<br />

All in all, I really love the hybrid of Fashion & Fitness in the Polar LOOP Crystal Activity tracking bracelet. I will usually still wear my watch at work but with the Polar Loop Crystal, it is a multi function bracelet – accessory, fitness tracker and watch all at the same time. Its crystal and feminine design compliments most of my casual clothes too!<br />

I found out that I actually have very sensitive skin when I started getting hives too often during facial and aesthetic treatments. My skin also reacts to certain skincare brands and their products pretty quickly and I have a bad habit of buying a whole range of products because I wanted them to look uniform and for the fear that different brands used together may have negative effects.<br />
<br />
So last year, I found the perfect skincare range for my skin and they have been working superb for me! The main reasons why I love how Dermagold products are really good for my skins:<br />
- no more breakouts just before time-of-the-month<br />
- acnes/pimples are settled without having to squeeze them out<br />
- products are super gentle to my skin<br />
- my skin cleared up immediately after the first week of usage<br />
<br />
<b>Dermagold</b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Have I mentioned the founders of Dermagold are 2 beautiful doctors, Grace and Luping, driven by their search for the perfect skin solution and bolstered by their medical backgrounds. They believe that skincare is personal and so their products have been specifically crafted to manage Asian skin types and are suited for the humid, tropical climate of Singapore.<br />
<br />
<b>My very own concoction – Dermagold</b><br />

<br />
This is my main skincare range. I only used my own toner but the rest are:
(from left to right)<br />
- Botanical Gel (link to blog post of Botanical Gel)<br />
- HA Booster<br />
- Radiance Cleansing Milk<br />
- Sheer sunscreen<br />
- Miracle C+ (link to blog post of Miracle C+)<br />
- Hydra Recovery Gel<br />
<br />
So, after cleansing with the Radiance Cleansing Milk daily, I use my own toner before reaching for the Miracle C+. After which I use my own eye cream and then go on to Botanical Gel (if I have any problematic spots), to HA Booster and Sheer Sunscreen (for daytime usage) and straight after Botanical Gel to the Hydra Recovery Gel at night.<br />
<br />
<b>Radiance Cleansing Milk</b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
I was recommended the Radiance Cleansing Milk because of my sensitive skin. This cleansing milk is gentle to the skin and contains sea buckthorn, which is a power house of nutrients with multiple uses due to its protein building amino acids. Vitamins B1, B2, K, C, A, E and folic acid, over 60 antioxidants, healthy fatty acids, etc.<br />
<br />

<br />
The Hydra Recovery gel was first introduced to me when we brought it along with us to our trip to Seoul last November. I have combination skin and it’s usually dry on the outside. The dryness tend to worsen whenever I get to a colder, dryer climate. The last trip to London got my skin cracking up every single day and I could not leave the hotels without my moisturizer in my bag and I reapplied it every hour. During our Seoul trip, J and I used it day and night and miraculously, I did not even need to reapply even though Seoul was much colder and dryer than London! There is aloe vera gel and aqua (water) among other ingredients which hydrates and calms dry, inflamed, scalded and sunburnt skin! I now use the Hydra Recovery gel only at night or after a long day under the scorching sun.<br />
<br />
<b>HA Booster</b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwF_eX57hDtdHOnuSU2dK2jCHYrZL2XpAvMR4mnS2MaY2A0EKhwvrTymyy41jDdXiKi09m7WiPOgEEw6Rvju7N82IwqaEApy0HT__sg2cuZFK2_ZMgnZECBFAsbl2x9UAMU4nyEfmXjYs/s1600/HA+Booster.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiwF_eX57hDtdHOnuSU2dK2jCHYrZL2XpAvMR4mnS2MaY2A0EKhwvrTymyy41jDdXiKi09m7WiPOgEEw6Rvju7N82IwqaEApy0HT__sg2cuZFK2_ZMgnZECBFAsbl2x9UAMU4nyEfmXjYs/s640/HA+Booster.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
The HA Booster is 100% pure Hyaluronic acid which will boost skin hydration and suitable for all skin types, especially skins showing signs of aging. I love the effect of the HA Booster because the texture feels very light and watery-like yet my skin is hydrated with just one pump every morning! I never leave home without the HA Booster too!<br />
<br />
<b>Sheer Sun Protector</b><br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixdN7hFf3xlJ-Iv62_MqW9Dr3WZf4zcbENosVo3JjTIezh0OkT7fn435yAgt9Bd5YAcpxWIiIzbU4YWaGszYRGcuM987ZfaS5qIntCrNSzYk6IpmussbHrVyrilQ1PMimGeHymuN6lW4Q/s1600/sheer+sunscreen.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixdN7hFf3xlJ-Iv62_MqW9Dr3WZf4zcbENosVo3JjTIezh0OkT7fn435yAgt9Bd5YAcpxWIiIzbU4YWaGszYRGcuM987ZfaS5qIntCrNSzYk6IpmussbHrVyrilQ1PMimGeHymuN6lW4Q/s640/sheer+sunscreen.JPG" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I have been on a lookout for suitable sunscreen for my skin and stopped my search ever since I started using the Sheer Sun Protector. It looks creamy because of its colour and but the texture feels otherwise. It is light on my sensitive skin and doesn’t whiten my skin like some other sunscreen I had used before. There is no ‘sunscreen fragrance’ and provides my skin with a protective layer from the harmful UV rays. I never leave home without the Sheer Sun Protector too!<br />
<br />
Dermagold has launched their online store and it's super convenient to purchase my skincare products now! Head down to <a href="http://www.dermagold.sg/">www.dermagold.sg</a> to have purchase yours! :)<br />
<br />
I'll also be doing a giveaway on one of the Dermagold products on my IG (@limaranagustina) so do look out for it and stand a chance to win one of the items from my concoction! Have fun and all the best! :D<br />

I enjoy how I don’t have to go through the hassle of shaving every other day and worrying that the skin will loosen and darken. So I was really glad to be invited for an IPL session with Strip on my legs because I had been shaving mine for the longest time and really hated the hassle!<br />
<br />
Lucky for me, Strip is conveniently located at 17 locations around Singapore!<br />
<br />
<b>What is Intense Pulsed-Light Hair Removal?</b><br />
<br />
It is an advanced and semi-permanent hair reduction method. Beams of specially filtered light are used to disintegrate hair from the root. New hair growth is delayed and a percentage of hair may not re-grow.<br />
<br />
After 8 years of research, Strip developed the ultimate IPL treatment, a semi-permanent hair reduction that is safe and near pain-free. Strip uses the Ferrari of IPL machines thus only require six sessions to eliminate your hair woes.<br />
- The IPL technology administers very low dosages of light and heat in repetitive batches over the targeted area of skin <br />
- As the energy output is lower, Strip’s therapists are able to repeatedly concentrate the energy for effective and virtually pain-free hair reduction<br />
- Due to the gradual application process, there is less chance of burns or pain from the heat of the flashes or the ‘snapping’ sensations from intense shots of energy aimed at weakening hair follicles<br />
- IPL technology is particularly effective for targeting fine facial hair, fine bodily hair, light-coloured or blonde hair as the heat therapy does not require guidance from pigmentation in hair strands. In addition, IPL also reduces in-grown hair issues and uneven pigmentation for clearer, smoother and rejuvenated skin. <br />

I was warmly greeted by Benny at Strip Plaza Singapura!
Benny brought me into the treatment room to prep for the treatment. I really love how the room is clean, well-designed, pink and cosy! It got me all excited and looking forward to the session!

As soon as the treatment ended, Benny cleaned the gel on my legs before applying moisturizer so that the skin gets the moisture before the pores start closing up. My skin feels super smooth! :D<br />

aspires to not only raise money for charity by donating part of the purchases
to the various charity organisations involved but also to raise awareness of
the many socially responsible shopping alternatives that are in the market and
provide shoppers another factor to consider (other than price and product) when
making their purchase decisions. Shopping is made meaningful because of these
reasons and considerations. Some of the brands involved are categorized under Beauty,

I realized that there should be a solution to this issue, but I cannot simply tell them to stop drinking carbonated drinks and switching them to plain water immediately!<br />

ICE MOUNTAIN, the No. 1 brand for bottled water, has just launched a new flavoured sparkling water. And I really love how the entire objective is to get young female adults like myself who are health conscious to drink ICE MOUNTAIN flavoured sparkling water by convincing them to opt for a guilt free, great tasting and refreshing beverage as a replacement to carbonated soft drinks.<br />

<br />
ICE MOUNTAIN SPARKLING WATER is a good alternative to carbonated soft drinks and is a lot more exciting than the usual plain sparkling water as it comes in 2 flavours - grapefruit and lemon.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwl0GxlMJwVk7Z1nPkcbmIFnN4Z6czwFceG-kmQYnMpFU11vJXrQbltEv_FVaUxDR1er2nkbjkT9KjEWuqzRKrIiPDmK9raikqzg47irRf-Pb3D8e8-h6ibGcWhR8sF8ZKC8yuQL2IQLE/s1600/IM+5.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwl0GxlMJwVk7Z1nPkcbmIFnN4Z6czwFceG-kmQYnMpFU11vJXrQbltEv_FVaUxDR1er2nkbjkT9KjEWuqzRKrIiPDmK9raikqzg47irRf-Pb3D8e8-h6ibGcWhR8sF8ZKC8yuQL2IQLE/s640/IM+5.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
So I always had problem drinking water, really. And I decided to bring the sparkling water to the gym and drink it post-workout and throughout the day.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-I5wbDQYadopx83H7g8fTJJdGJG5o8LL4lq8y37CICVHuAjHR8J7JY-riy2W1n1ziWVMQHyV_1c_XBEyr_Ma-wcXpI6TkRLiOkSJbllapICPfec64mHbsKXPeyGLQ1yx-EC-bTJQ0hNU/s1600/IM+2.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg-I5wbDQYadopx83H7g8fTJJdGJG5o8LL4lq8y37CICVHuAjHR8J7JY-riy2W1n1ziWVMQHyV_1c_XBEyr_Ma-wcXpI6TkRLiOkSJbllapICPfec64mHbsKXPeyGLQ1yx-EC-bTJQ0hNU/s640/IM+2.jpg" width="640" /></a></div>
<br />
I really like how the sparkling water tastes very refreshing, considering the fact that there is no sugar added, zero calories, no colouring, no artificial sweeteners, and of course, a lot more affordable compared to other sparkling water in the market – only $1.20 at the supermarkets. There is also a hint of fruity flavour – lemon or grapefruit which makes it super tasty!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Personally, I cannot even tell which flavor is my favourite because both taste very refreshing and are unique and yummy! Well, go ahead and try for yourself if you like! ☺

Spa Esprit Group is a homegrown brand with a diverse portfolio spanning across beauty and F&B, with presence in 10 cities around the world. To date, they have 17 distinct lifestyle brands that are recognized both in Singapore and internationally.<br />
<br />
I was privileged to be invited to the newly opened Strip outlet at Plaza Singapura. This is the only IPL-only outlet in Singapore!<br />
<br />
I fell in love with the interior, which mimics the Grand Budapest Hotel! The colours used were all warm and pink, ambience lights used were cosy and inviting and of course, the staff were all smiles as I walked in.<br />

Was greeted by these smiling faces as I walked into the outlet. I couldn’t help but kept glancing at them as the ladies were assisting me with my appointment. :P The keys hanging at the back of the counter ties back well to the Grand Budapest Hotel interior too!<br />

<br />
I love how subtle and witty this display is! The packets are actually IPL kits, unique for each IPL customer. Each kit will be disposed of after an IPL session to ensure hygiene standards.<br />
<br />
So Spa Esprit Group has launched a very convenient way for all of us to make bookings now, supplementing the calling of the outlets’ hotlines. You may opt for bookings via the website, <a href="http://booking.spa-esprit.com/">booking.spa-esprit.com</a>, or download SEG Booking on your mobile devices.<br />
<br />
I personally love the fact that there’s a mobile app booking option and made my first booking on my mobile phone! Let me bring you through a mini tour on the booking! :D<br />
<br />
Search ‘SEG Booking’ on your app store or Google Play store and you will see this when you open the app. Remember to allow notifications though! :D<br />

As much as I love to meal-prep, sometimes it can be a real chore to wake up earlier just to meal-prep since I do not like to prep my meals the night before if given the choice. I prefer my meals as fresh and warm as possible so I always make the effort to wake up earlier to prep my meals on days I don’t have early morning sessions.</div>
<br />
Being a true Indonesian I can really survive just eating rice for every main meal (HAHA). Even though I try not to anymore, especially after 8pm everyday, one of the main source of carbohydrates that I find super difficult to resist is RICE, even more difficult would be FLAVORED RICE! :P<br />
<br />
<b>Yamie Rice & Gan Hup Lee</b><br />
<br />
A product of homegrown integrated rice company, Gan Hup Lee (1999) Pte Ltd, <b>Yamie Ready-to-Cook Premix Rice</b> consists of Thai Jasmine rice blended with many flavorful ingredients to give it an authentic taste. Preparation is hassle free – simply add water, cook and serve. What’s more, the product range features wholesome ingredients and enhanced taste, turning a good meal into a great meal.<br />
<br />
The awesome folks at Gan Hup Lee sent us a couple of <b>Yamie Rice Ready-to-Cook Premix Rice</b> and I could not wait to try cooking them! Yamie Rice comes in 7 truly delectable flavors: Claypot Rice, Chicken Rice, Yam Rice, Nasi Bryani, Sambal Rice, Black Pepper Rice and Chicken Flavoured Porridge.<br />

Each box comes with a packet of rice and flavored ingredients depending on the different flavors. The Claypot rice flavor consists of some dried mushrooms in a smaller packet for enhanced flavor.<br />

Truly suited to Singaporean’s taste buds, <b>Yamie Ready-to-Cook Premix Rice</b> is <b>Halal certified </b>and
<b>NO Preservatives </b><br />
<b>NO added MSG </b><br />
<b>NO Artificial Colourings </b><br />
<b>NO Trans fat!</b><br />
<br />
This was the outcome of my version of the <b>Yamie Rice Ready-to-Cook Premix Rice</b> with added marinated chicken breast meat! I added spring onions and chilli padi for more flavor and J loves it so much too! :D<br />

<b>Yamie Rice Cook off!</b><br />
<br />
Together with Maureen (Misstamchiak), Pheobe (Thefoodchapter) and Kelvin (Cheekiemonkies), I was invited to my first-ever Cook off!<br />
<br />
We were asked to pick a mystery box, each containing a different flavor and it happened to be the first flavor that I tried cooking at home and also J’s favourite! CLAYPOT RICE! It was really awkward for me to speak in front of the camera but thank God for Maureen who was such a natural! Here are some of the behind-the-scenes photos from the cookoff which we had so much fun with! :D<br />

<br />
I started wearing glasses since I was in Primary 2 at 8 years old and since then, my glasses had been my best friend. At the age of 15, I was finally being given the chance to wear contact lens and that became my second best friend until the recent years, when my trusty contact lens started to fail on me. My eyes started getting irritated very easily and I could not wear contact lens for more than 5 hours and by the 4th hour, my eyes would have gotten red and irritated. I was only wearing my contact lens for events, shoots and important functions. Daily, I would be wearing my glasses even when I worked and worked out. At night, I would sometimes be woken up by irritation on both eyes and both hands rubbing both eyes, not being able to even open my eyes after all the rubbing.<br />
<br />
I was also stuck with the regular contact lens because of my high degree of astigmatism by the time I started wearing contact lens. I could not use any form of coloured and fancy contact lens too.<br />
<br />
<b><i>Love at FIRST SIGHT (in the mornings) </i></b><br />
<br />
I relied so much on my glasses than anything else. First thing I reached for in the morning was my glasses. I wore glasses to work and worked out uncomfortably and inconveniently in my glasses. Even the nicest and most expensive glasses were uncomfortable for me, I wanted out of this love-hate relationship.<br />
<br />
I then dreamt of getting a set of perfect eyesight as I heard about the wonders of getting LASIK done, from many friends. I came up with pros and cons of investing this huge amount of money to get my eyesight fixed (almost) permanently. I started doing research and reading up the pros and cons of LASIK VS glasses. Of course, the ‘pros’ won hands down because LASIK is a ‘one-time-cost’ solution to clear vision as compared to the lifetime cost of relying on glasses or contact lens.<br />
<br />
I heard about LASIK and even though my friends all encouraged to go ahead with it, I was still skeptical because of the cutting of flaps and flap complications, etc. Until I was introduced to the new <b>ReLEx ® SMILE</b> procedure, that was when I decided I should just give it a go!<br />
<br />
<b><i>What is ReLEx ® SMILE?</i></b><br />
<br />
<b>ReLEx ® SMILE</b> stands for – Refractive Lenticule Extraction, Small Incision Lenticule Extraction.
<br />
<br />
As compared to LASIK, <b>ReLEx ® SMILE</b>, doesn’t create a flap – instead, the laser creates a refractive lenticule (a thin lens shaped cornea tissue) in your eye and a 2mm to 4mm incision is being made and the surgeon then removes the lens. Your cornea’s integrity is maintained, and since it is less invasive, it also means you heal faster than a flap would, and there’s less risk of the flap dislodging as well. Dryness may be less too.<br />
<br />
Watch the procedure here:<br />

<br />
<b><i>Pre-evaluation tests & Consultation Day</i></b><br />
<br />
I quickly wanted to get the pre-evaluation done (was actually more worried about whether I will pass the tests). There are only two eye centres in Singapore that has the ReLEx smile procedure available. I managed to schedule the earliest appointment at this Lasik clinic in Paragon level 13. I was told to lay off contact lens for at least 3 full days (I did for a week just to be safe).<br />
<br />
When I arrived at the clinic, bright and chirpy nurses and staff at the front counter greeted me. They were so helpful and cheery I almost forgot what I was there for and felt so at ease. I was told to fill up some forms and an optometrist took over from the counter and briefed me on the pre-refractive surgery evaluation procedure.<br />
<br />
The evaluation process took about two hours, which includes a consultation with the doctor.<br />
<br />
The pre-refractive evaluation compromises of a series of test to scan from the front to the back of my eyes. From evaluating my prescription to assessing my eye pressure. The tests also picks up imperfections, analyses & measure my cornea thickness.<br />
<br />
And finally, the optometrist brought me in to see the doctor for the final confirmation! The doctor told me I was eligible for any form of surgery, both LASIK and <b>ReLEx ® SMILE</b>. I was super relieved!<br />
<br />
<b><i>Surgery Day</i></b><br />
<br />
J and I scheduled the same day of surgery and so we were there first appointment in the morning. We had some waiting time so we went ahead and helped ourselves with some biscuits and MILO. :P
<br />

</tbody></table>
Amidst all that excitement and nervousness, the nurse gave me a briefing on the post surgery procedure when I get home.<br />
<br />
The nurse applied numbing eye drops just before I was ushered into the surgery room and before I knew it, the surgery was over within 15 minutes (which includes a quick post-surgery check by the doctor/surgeon). I went straight home after the surgery. I felt no pain at all, just discomfort and involuntary tearing throughout my ride home. As soon as I got home, I went straight for the bed and rested for 3 hours. Right after 3 hours, the discomfort was completely gone and my eyesight was already super clear, it was like a miracle!<br />

<br />
Our first post surgery review was the next day and VOILA, the optometrist checked that my eyesight was already 6/6 and the doctor also gave the go-ahead to do whatever I want, except swimming! I could literally feel myself jumping! :P<br />
<br />
<b><i>2nd Post surgery review – 2 weeks later</i></b><br />
<br />
This was right after I completed the 2 weeks course of antibiotics. The doctor checked that my eyes were still 6/6 and gave the consent to do <b>WHATEVER I WANT</b> such as swimming! :D<br />
<br />
It’s been almost 4 months since my surgery and I still am very thankful that <b>ReLEx ® SMILE</b> totally changed my life! I was still trying to get used to the fact that I do not need glasses anymore and waking up in the morning was such a breeze! I must say, that this was one of the best decisions and investment ever (the other is braces)!

Friends who know me well enough will know that I have very sensitive skin. I had tried IPL twice and my face would break out into small bumps within the same week. I would get hives when too much pressure is applied on my skin, especially during extraction. I shunned away at any idea of doing laser on my skin.</center>

<center style="text-align: left;">
It was until I met the very gorgeous Dr Karen Soh during my first visit. She assessed my condition and I told her my fears and concerns. She decided that I should do a test session before my first session and when everything was cleared within the next few days, she gave the go-ahead.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<i>So what is Revile Laser?</i></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
Revlite Laser is a non-invasive treatment that uses light energy to gently stimulate natural collagen growth, minimizes pores, remove irregular pigmentation and reduce fine lines and wrinkles.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<i>How is it done?</i></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
The procedure is safe, simple, comfortable and fast. I always make my appointments in between my pt sessions so I usually head out of the clinic within 15 mins, which will include cleansing and preparation for the treatment. The laser beam will be directed towards the area of concern, heating the deeper layers of the skin.</center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<br /></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<i>Which areas can be treated?</i></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
<i><br /></i></center>
<center style="text-align: left;">
I consider this more like a weekly facial treatment for me as it can be done on the undereyes and face. Also, it can be done on your hands and body, practically anywhere that is exposed to the sun.</center>

I have raved about how affordable and effective this laser treatment is to my friends especially after they had actually noticed the minimizing of my pore sizes after 4-5 sessions and I really think its a great investment for ladies who are looking at getting a quick-fix during lunch time because there is no downtime at all and Prive Vitale is very conveniently located at the CBD area!</center>
