Browless No More - Eyebrow Embroidery Review


This an un-sponsored review that I'm writing in appreciation of the numerous bloggers who unabashedly put up their own reviews - especially to the un-sponsored ones - which greatly helped me in deciding where to go for my eyebrow embroidery. 
The main drawback in the research process was that I could only find photos of the before-and-after brow transformation done on the day itself by most bloggers, and I found myself searching high and low for those who actually took a photo of themselves weeks later - and found none.
Numbing cream was applied on my brows and I had to wait for at least 30 mins before the cream took effect. I asked Kelly if I were going to feel the pain and my question made her decide to leave the cream for 45 mins instead. 
The brows looked a bit thick but I reckon it takes some getting used to.
Both sides of brow don't look balanced, but I thought to wait it out for a month or so before deciding if I like it.
By day four, the tattoo had faded quite a bit. I really took special care not to let the brows come into contact with water, except for my morning and night wash. Still, there was some minor scabbing and I noticed a coloured patch without the embroidered hair.
5 weeks later, my brows looked as natural as can be. I do fill the tip of the brows in with some brown eyeshadow, so as to even out with my hair colour when I put on makeup. But if not, the brows looked good by itself. I still have in mind to go back to Kelly for the free touch up for my right brow, which was slightly unbalanced compared with the left brow.
Though it's almost $500, it's well spent in my opinion. I no longer worry about brows!

SOTD & OOTD - Dogging the Tooth


Flattering but not extremely comfy to wear. Good thing about the dress? No need to iron!

SOTD - Selfie Of The Day!

Starting a new series of posts titled "Selfie of the Day". 
Simply because there is no special reason for taking a selfie sometimes - you just think you look good somehow ♥

Miam Miam @Westgate


 Had a catch-up with some lovely friends on Christmas eve (rather than doing last minute Christmas shopping, thank God!) and we tried out this French-Japanese cafe - Miam Miam.
I realise most retail shops and restaurants like to go Scandinavian-industrious theme these days, and every shop is becoming to look the same. With that said, the interior decor is cozy for chit chat.
But we waited for our food for almost an hour! At 3pm, the restaurant was pretty packed, and I guess everybody is having late lunch from their half day.
Ordered Squid Ink Rice, rather delicious I must say, but oily as an afterthought.
 My favourite has to be dessert, especially when it is macha!
Macha soft serve on Macha pancake with green tea and coffee jelly! 
Wanna come back for another round!
