Can't believe tomorrow's August already! Time really flies nowadays, doesn't it? Anyway, just before July ends, let me just share the things I loved this month. :)

Hey there! So today I have a little haul to share with you. These were taken last July 10 and these are the things I bought here and there while walking around in Singapore. Not a lot really, since I think I shot these on my first week there.

  I paid H&M a visit during their sale and oh my, it was madness! There were a lot of people inside, there were long fitting room and cashier queues, and a lot of on sale items! Too bad I wasn't able to check everything out because the amount of people inside was cray! I did, however, get something amidst the chaos. I got this adorable shirt from their Conscious collection for only S$10! I love this shirt. It was breezy and a bit sheer, it isn't a fitted shirt and the shirt length passed my standards. I wore this during my flight and it was just so comfortable it's crazy.

I also got their spring magazine! Yaaaaaaay!!

 I'm glad I also went to Forever 21 because I got new accessories! I got new moustache rings (moustache forever!) and a spiked ear cuff. I'm still figuring out how to properly wear the ear cuff because every time I wear this, it either gets loose and falls off or it's perfectly in place but it can't be seen unless I really turn sideways. Oh well, I'll figure this out eventually. :P

  Last July 4, I did something for the very first time: I shopped online. I've been wanting to try the Sigma E25 for a long time now so I checked Sigma's website and found a list of authorized resellers of their brushes. Thankfully, they have three resellers in Singapore, one of them is Luxola. So I visited Luxola's site and it made me so excited.

 Why you ask? Three reasons. One: they have Sigma brushes. Two: one method of payment is cash on delivery. Three: free shipping on orders above S$10. How convenient is that? So when I went to Singapore, I went to their site and placed my order on a Thursday morning.

 I opted to have my order delivered between 9-12 am the next day, Friday. The next day while I just finished my breakfast, the doorbell rang at 9. Of course I knew who it was. ;) I couldn't wait to open the Luxola paper bag.

 My order consisted of my E25 and my sister's F80. The total was S$49.

  That's not all. One reason I wanted to place my order asap was because they had an ongoing promo that week: a free Sleek palette for orders above S$40. So hell yes, I want that palette so bad!

 After my first transaction with them, Luxola is now my go-to makeup shopping site in Singapore. Their site is easy to navigate, my order arrived on time, they have c.o.d. as payment method, they have awesome promos, and you can't really beat the fact that shipping is free when your order is above S$10. 

 Other than Sigma, they also have popular beauty brands like Sleek, Becca Cosmetics, Mario Badescu, Butter London, Models Own, Rouge Bunny Rouge, Zpalette, NCLA, Covet London, and Beauty Blender. Luxola delivers free in the following countries: Singapore (orders S$10 & above), Brunei (S$40 & above), Hong Kong (HK 250 & above), Indonesia (RP 315 & above), Malaysia (RM 100 & above), Thailand (THB 1000 & above). Here in the Philippines, shipping is free for orders Php1300 and above. Cash on delivery is available in Singapore only.

Happy shopping!

Hey guys, I'm here to make you (and probably me) hungry! My three weeks in Singapore involved a lot of walking, shopping, riding wrong buses (never again!), mall hopping, babysitting, and of course, eating! Like OMG, food in that country is the bomb. You get to taste a lot of cuisines like Indian, Malaysian, Japanese, Chinese, Western, Filipino, Vietnamese, and more. So here are some of the food I've gobbled during my stay. Enjoy!

Our homemade Lemon Chiffon Cake with Strawberries. We made this cake for Hugo's 1st birthday and let me tell you, this cake was made with labor, love, and a lot of modifications. My sister and I had to go to the grocery to buy a small carton of whipping cream because the cream we first used was an epic fail. The strawberries were actually a last minute idea. But despite all the horrors, we were so happy that the finished product looked like a decent birthday cake in the end. It was yummy too!

Ice Potong. Can I just say that this ice cream made me curious and baffled at the same time? Curious, because I've never seen such ice cream flavor before. Baffled because I don't know whether to like it or hate it. Anyway, it's a decent cooler, kinda like halo-halo on a stick with only red beans in it. I think it's a must try for tourists or for anyone who wants ice cream!

Kaya toast + teh c. Mom and I decided to have a light breakfast at the airport before her flight. You just cannot leave Singapore without having these two. Or coffee/kopi if you're not a fan of tea.

UPDATE:

  Hey hey! Sorry for not updating this blog for three weeks; I was in Singapore! Of course I wanted to update this blog with beauty/random/food posts but I didn't do it because I just wanted to take a break from everything, plus I wanted to collect things to blog about. So yeah, I have a lot of stuff to review, I'm going to post food photos I took in Instagram, and just random stuff. I'm back and I can't wait to share everything in this little space of mine! Woohooo!!
