Beauty Tips for Hair

I have wavy hair but not in stylish way, more like damaged hair look.

Therefore, I either use straight iron to straighten my hair or hot curlers to curl my hair.

To maintain these look, I use Aujua (in pink bottle) for silky straight hair and Ann (in blue bottle) for lasting curls.

These are effective!

Love CHANEL

I went to CHANEL counter at Takashimaya Nihonbashi Main Store to get cosmetics that I ran out.

These are Highlighting Powder and Eyebrow Gel.

My weakness is I cannot refuse Limited Edition.

I missed Limited Collection for Christmas so I asked is there anything for New Year.

There are few items to be introduced on 3 January 2020; new and limited for this time only.

I reserved few items to be picked up after 3 January 2020. hahaha

There is an invitation to become a friend with CHANEL on LINE app.

I registered immediately so that I can get the latest product information!

Now I can avoid missing getting new products.

I don’t know it’s a good move or not. hahaha

Toraya @ Tokyo Midtown Roppongi

I went to Toraya to look for Japanese traditional confectionery to host my Singaporean friends for lunch on Sunday.

The shop sells their confectioneries at one counter and exhibits history of their confectionery based on theme.

This time, tray.

I like this flower tray among them.

Yes, we image to use Japanese designed tray for Japanese food.

However, the exhibition is introducing these trays can be used for Western food as well.

I bought dessert for lunch from there and it came with seasonal limited edition of Origami (folding paper) edition paper bag.

So cute!

I bought these.

Next year is year of Rat.

Rat designed Yokan (sweet bean jelly) and Monaka (sweet bean puff).

I like them and hope they did, too.

Mindfulness

Recently, I was recommended to practice mindfulness.

I have been knowing about this but I was not interested to learn about it.

Today, yes, I do feel weak and I’m interested in mindfulness.

In a way, I consider writing the blog is my way of mindfulness.

Originally, I started to blog to improve my English writing skill and to find one thing that makes me happy,, inspiring, thinking, etc. in a day.

This is the moment to think back of my day.

I usually love to watch an action movies.

Today, I watched “the Bucket List”.

I have more years to live (hopefully)…. however, I don’t need to wait till last moment to try things.

Perhaps, I can list down my bucket list.

These can be simple things such as laugh hard till I cry like mentioned in a movie.
