Event: Acrylic Pour Express Workshop at Room To Imagine

Acrylic Pour Artwork
It's been long since my last blog post. How has it been for everyone? In just a few hours, we will be stepping into a new year.

But before this, I would love to share with you a fun and interesting workshop I went to last weekend. You may already know what is it from my blog post title. Yes...I went to Acrylic Pour Express Workshop from Room To Imagine. 

This is the first time I get to try acrylic pouring. I love to do art and craft. So I am really excited to get my hands dirty on this one. 😜😎😍

Room To Imagine is located in Jalan Besar. Erm....before I get to the real challenge, I must conquer this long long stairs monster to level 4 of the venue. 😫😰

Finally arrived!

Then I listen carefully to Cindy's demo on the acrylic pouring. (Ok...I need to eat ginkgo pills. Coz this moment she say...the next moment I forgot 🙈) But thanks to all the guidance along the way. :)
Materials ready.

This workshop is a great introduction for beginners like me to acrylic pouring. All the materials and the acrylic paints are all prepared ready for use. 

All I have to do is choose colors, put in liquid silicone, pour onto the canvas panel, burn it and tadah.....done. Ok easy to say, I am really nervous along the way. (OS in my heart to myself...correct or not.....just pour?....will it turn out good?)😅😆

Review: Suisse Programme Cellular Revitalizing Toner

Suisse Programme Cellular Revitalizing Toner (200ml)
Toner is the basic of everybody's skin care routine. The Cellular Revitalizing Toner is the 2nd product I try from Suisse Programme.

This toner works like any other normal toner, refreshing and prepare skin for the rest of the skin care application. It produces some kin of a light perfume smell. Not a wallet friendly toner to me.

  • No Alcohol
  • eliminate all traces of impurities
  • reduce pores
  • balance PH level
  • calm irritations
  • Brighten dull and tired skin

Directions.
My Review
This is my 2nd Suisse Programme product. 

It came nicely in a silver box. 
Came packed in sliver box.
The Cellular Revitalizing Toner is contained in a transparent bottle. 
Came in a transparent bottle.
The cap can be easily turned open with a small hole in the middle to pour the toner out. Which I find sometime, I will pour all over the place. It will be better if it came with a pump. 
Hole in the middle to pour the toner.
The toner has a watery texture . It is non greasy and non sticky. However, it produces a light fragrance perfume smell, which I don't really like. 
Watery and non greasy.
The toner make my skin feels refreshing, smooth and moisturized. It does prepares my skin for the application of the next skin care products. 

However, for a toner that is that not wallet friendly at all and provides only normal effect, I don't think it is worth it. :(

Where to buy it?

Review: DrGL Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss

DrGL Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss (100ml)
Are you having hairloss problem or finding solution to prevent hairloss? Have you heard of DrGL? 

Recently, I came across this Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss from a brand call DrGL. I have been using it for more than 1 month now. This product helps to keep my scalp healthy and helps lessen hair loss together with the help of hair cleansing and treatment. 

About DrGL Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss
This is DrGL hair serum for anti-hairloss. 

Country: Made In Korea
Suitable: Hairloss
Texture: Lightweight and non greasy

Benefits:
  • Revitalise hair follicles and stimulate hair regrowth.
  • Treat hair from shaft to root by removing damaged proteins and scalp tissues.
  • Protect hair from falling.
  • Promotes blood micro-circulation.
  • Supports the healthy restoration of your scalp and hair.
Ingredients
Go to DrGL Website for more information. 

How to use DrGL Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss? 
Towel dry hair after shampoo. Part hair into sections, spray serum onto scalp. Gently massage. Do not rinse off.

My Review
With natural thin hair, hair thinning and hair loss is a huge problem to me as it is easily visible to me. 

If you have been following my blog, you should have notice that I have been using other brands of hair thinning and hair loss products to help my hair thinning and hair loss issue before I go botah (bald). 

Recently through events, I get to know DrGL Solution Hair Serum for Anti-Hairloss. Just about the right time as I am thinking to try other brand's hairloss product since the result of the current one I am using is already stagnant. Maybe new try can stimulate new results? 

This DrGL Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss came in a very classy green bottle. 
Came in a nice green bottle.
Spray is given when I first bought the product from Shunji Matsuo Hair Salon. The staff helped me to fix it into my hairloss bottle.
Spray for easy application.
The solution itself is pretty lightweight and is non greasy. It is colorless. 
Colorless solution serum.
Together with using this product, I actually went for DrHair Scalp cleansing treatment with also using scalp cleansing products. I have to make sure my scalp pores is not clogged in order for it to absorb all the goodness from the serum. 

I have been using DrGL Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss for more than 1 month now. I have stopped going for scalp cleansing treatment but I still did use cleansing scalp product regularly, 3 times a week to make sure my scalp is not clogged.

I usually use this serum 3 times a week after deep cleansing the scalp. With towered dry hair. Just 2 pump is enough for my whole hair scalp, concentrating at the top middle area.

I did notice my scalp is cleansed and less oily. Also less hair fall and healthy too. 

As for thicker hair, I still did not see results yet. Maybe I need longer usage to see result? I shall continue to use it and observed further. 

The product may be expensive. But 1 bottle actually last me quite long. So it's actually not very expensive looking at how long I can use it. I am around 2 months of using and I have used up only 1/4 of the bottle only. 

Where to buy it? 
DrGL Solution Hair Anti-Hairloss can be bought at DrGL Online Store, Shunji Matsuo Hair Salon at Ngee Ann City and Sephora Ion Orchard at a retail price of S$168.

Where to redeem samples?
There is no sample redemption for this product. But you may may like their DrGL Facebook Page for future promotions.

Ricola is a well heard brand. Popular for its herbal sweets. But do you know that they have Instant Tea too?

Last month when I was in Switzerland, I came across a surprise (at least to me) finding at one of their supermarket. Ricola Instant Tea!!!

My first reaction was what!! Ricola actually produces Tea!!! I have never seen it in Singapore. So with my curious antenna on, I bought 1 can home to try. 

The instant tea came in a round container. The wording and printing style on the container just look like the Ricola sweet.

Opening the container cap, the tea is sealed with foil that can be easily peal off.

Once opened, I can smell nice sweet fragrance that is similar to the Ricola sweet.

I have chosen Elderflower flavour as I remembered that the sweet version taste great. So I thought the tea will be equally nice.

The tea is light yellowish in color. And I made it cold. One sip of the tea and indeed. The tea does taste just like the Ricola Elderflower sweet. Very nice aromatic herbs taste that is not too sweet. And it taste equally nice when hot.

During application, my skin feels cooling and refreshing and the moisturiser is easy to absorb. After a while, skin feels smooth to touch.

However, not sure if it's only for my problematic skin, there are more blemish seen on my T-zone area during this period of application. It does not seem to have good effect on my T-zone.

Review: Shepherd's Pies Freshly Baked From Shepherd's Pie Singapore

Shepherd's Pie (https://shepherdspie.sg/)
Are you those who go crazy seeing Shepherd's Pie?Then you will definitely love the Shepherd's Pie that I am going to introduce to you in a moment. 

I love Shepherd's Pie and I used to have them once a week at my work cafe until one day, my company change the cafe and I haven't had my Shepherd's Pie since. Last week, thanks to Shepherd's Pie Singapore, I had the chance to taste delicious and freshly baked Shepherd's Pie.

About Shepherd's Pie Singapore

https://shepherdspie.sg/
They currently have 2 flavors to their pies, beef and chicken with 3 different sizes, mini, medium and massive

Go to Shepherd's Pie Singapore for more information. 

My Review
Last weekend's dinner is a different one for my family. Thanks to Shepherd's Pie Singapore for delivering hot and delicious shepherd's pies for my family's dinner. 

I love shepherd's pie. So I was really looking forward to it. 

The shepherd's pie came late afternoon towards evening, nicely pack in a black box. Labelled clearly what is inside.
Came nicely pack in a black box.
I have with me, 1 mini beef pie, 1 mini and 1 medium chicken pie. I still can feel the heat of the pie when I hold the box. Yes, they are still hot when they arrived. And I can smell nice cheese fragrance when I open up the box.
1 mini beef pie, 1 mini and 1 medium chicken pie.
Beef Shepherd Pie
Only I eat beef. So naturally, the 1 mini beef pie goes to me.😄 The moment I deep my spoon into the pie and pull it out, I can already smell nice mixture of beef with cheese fragrance.
Mini Beef Shepherd's Pie.
The mashed potatoes taste fluffy and melts in my mouth. 

The cheese on the very top is chewy. 

The beef mix with very little amount of vegetables inside, taste sweet at first but as I chew longer, very light amount of pepper can be tasted. I can taste the beef but it is not too gamey, just nice to me.

When all combine into 1 mouthful, a very delicious Shepherd's Pie indeed!!!

Chicken Shepherd Pie
The chicken shepherd's pie had the same consistency in term of the taste as the beef shepherd's pie. Just that instead of tasting beef, I taste chicken. 
Chicken Shepherd's Pie.
The chicken taste very tender. The sauce taste pretty much the same as the beef one to me, sweet at first but peppery towards the end. 

I must say, the fillings and the mashed potatoes ratio is just nice to me. You won't feel tired eating too much of it.
The fillings and the mashed potatoes ratio is just nice to me.
There is nothing I can really fault about for these pies. But if you really want me to pick the bones in an egg, then I shall say, maybe a little more carrots and corns will be even better for me as I love vegetables. This will give the meat a tad of vegetable taste.  (Can I have Vegetable Shepherd's Pie in future?😁😝)
A little more carrot and corn will be even better for me.
Shepherd's Pie is always a great food to have for any occasion, especially during tea break, lunch and dinner with friends and family. It goes well with a cup of tea or even over a cup of wine. It is convenient and very filling.

For the healthy conscious folks, potatoes is in the same section as rice and noodles in the food pyramid. So I must say it is sometimes great to replace rice with potatoes in your meals. They are lower in calories and fats, higher in fiber and same proteins as compare with rice.

For my family that day, we realize that the shepherd's pie actually goes well with the fired wanton skin!!! Ok not very healthy but it is really a very delicious pairing I must say. 
Goes well with fried wanton skin.
Where to buy it? 
You can get these delicious and freshly baked Shepherd's Pies from Shepherd's Pie Singapore online Store.

Flavours - Chicken or Beef.
