I’d be totally honest and tell you that rainy days are not my thing. I know how comforting it is to sleep under such chilly weather, but summer is just my favorite, favorite season of the year. As soon as Christmas is about done, my mind takes a fast forward drift as I consider February as summer!

Anyway, Leyede’s new fragrance, called Beach Bomb, fixes me in a trance that makes me feel like summer forever. Its fresh fragrance takes me my mind to the beach to savor the fresh, unforgettable breeze. Sigh.

Now that I’ve revealed the insides of my toiletry kit ( or big beauty kit, that is, ) let me let you peek in my makeup kit! This is the kit that I’d be bringing around me all the time. Singapore is a beautiful city, and the night life is said to be just wonderful and glamorous- and I am definitely going to glam myself up Friday night to go partying with my classmates from highschool whom I am meeting up! ( They’re working there already ).

The insides of my makeup kit :

If only happiness could be bottled up, I’d have one for every bag to have with me everyday. Oh, I just love happy days!

Just recently, I have learned that there is such thing as a stress buster, mood enhancer, and a confidence booster, and that is N.V. Perricone’s Synergy.

Synergy employs a powerful neuropeptide pheromone technology that helps to calm and soothe the mind and body, while attracting people to you. This breakthrough treatment comes in a sweet, sugar cookie scent.

Benefits of dabbing Synergy on pulse points, and on your upper lip include ,

*Sharpened memory and mental clarity
*Elevated self-confidence
*Decreased stress and anxiety
*Enhanced well-being
*Increased feeling of relaxation

Of course, who wouldn’t be skeptical and even doubtful of the promised effects when they seemed to be out of this world? I haven’t even mentioned that an interpersonal effect of this potion would be to increase one’s attractiveness to the opposite sex. Woah. And N.V. Perricone, M.D., a world renowned dermatologist, made a bold, bold move to come up with such an innovation like this.

Here’s a confession - I grew up falling in love with novels. Yes, exquisite romance novels.

It’s nothing new that celebrities are coming up with their signature fragrances, but authors, novelists, well , they’re just new to me!

Danielle Steele has her own fragrance, too, called “Danielle,”, and is described as,

like her novels, this is a timeless, luxurious balance of strength and femininity

Sounds intriguing! I’d love to have my hands on these to try. And then my mind drifts off if one day, I would have the chance to “sniff” the spirit of authors Johanna Lindsey, Sandra Brown, and Judith McNaught. I mean honestly, I just love their novels, it sure would be interesting how they’d translate into scent. Perhaps twould inspire me to write more, too! Haha!

Oh my goodness. If anyone would give me this? I would swear to apply good makeup on her everyday for the rest of my life! And if it’s a he, well, I will do his facial every week! Hahaha!

The I Love New York Double-Decker Sampler Box is such a dazzling gift idea, with twelve 50ml flacons of Bond Eau de Parfums! only if you can manage $1600 to spend for this. Insane, but I say, luxury is the name of the game!

I used to hate going to SM Mall of Asia because it’s undeniably huge - I can get lost there and never be able to find my way home ( haha! ) - but going to Watson’s is INDEED a different thing. It’s not the usual Watson’s that we’ve come to get used to for our necessities and simple toiletries - it is way way beyond that now! It has just transformed into the ultimate health & beauty wonderland, and Beautynomics was there for a sneak peak of its new look!

We got in!

Is it just me, or Watsons has gone from mass market to semi-high end? The new roster of brands are really impressive - alot of people would be very thankful for this move! More pictures ,after the jump!

I must say that I’m quite picky when it comes to fragrances and I only keep a few in my vanity table, a select few that I’m sure I’ll stick with. In other words, I am the sort of person that keeps her signature fragrances and sticks to it.

One lazy Saturday afternoon, I discovered that my bestfriend is going crazy over fragrances. It happened when I was asking if she had some cologne , and we were at her pad, and she immediately drew out numerous designer scents that left me surprised - I was only asking for good’ol mild baby cologne! She specifically asked me to try the new fragrance that she was raving about, as I saw this cute opaque, and matte pink bottle, and it turned out to be Creed Spring Flower.

Summer is the best time of the year. Everything’s bright, the sun’s up, and the atmosphere is as jolly as the good ol sun!

Of course, let’s not forget the scorching heat that awaits us, and sometimes too much heat would make the fragrant stuff we used during our shower wear off, and make them smell bad. Oh, I hate that, I hate that. So in turn, certain fragrances must be used to keep us fresh and happy!

As summer kicks off, I usually steer clear from powdery scents and switch to fresh, fruity scents. Pure Petal Hair Fragrance in Summer Passion is my pick for keeping the hair fresh, and fragrant all day without the heaviness of perfume scents. It’s light, it’s airy, and passion fruit’s one of the loveliest scents I’ve ever tried.

When the word “fruity” is mentioned, one must think that it’s only for kids - a big nah for that. There are great fruity scents that are bordering from sweet to sensual, like grapefruit ( my numero uno favorite scent as of now ) and passion fruit! One word for this must be perfect. Perfect for summer. =)

And one last word, of course, we wouldn’t want to risk our hair being “fried” in the sun with alcohol-based fragrances right? Pure Petal hears our hair’s pleas for an alcohol-free hair fragrance and further nourishes it with moisturizing ingredients! Yipee!

This might be so out of the market now because I remembered this being given to me as a gift by my classmate a good 4 years ago. I ignored it for a while because I wasn’t into fragrances at that time, but when I tried to spray it on me to give me the “beach” mood as I hit the beach last weekend, I found myself inhaling the wonderful, deliriously delightful scent of this body mist!
