Hurraw lip balm

I am currently obsessed with vanilla flavour in any lip product, body wash or lotions. All the vanilla cravings started from The Body Shop Vanilla Bliss Collection and I got so excited when I came across this vanilla bean lip balm from Hurraw! at Watsons.

Here's a lip balm that is all natural, vegan, made from premium raw, organic and fair trade ingredients. Notice that the lip balm is made without beeswax, so guys who are allergic to beeswax might wanna give this a go.

Ingredients: **Vanilla planifolia (vanilla) bean infused *Prunus amygdalus dulcis (sweet almond) oil, ***Euphorbia cerifera (candelilla) wax, **Cocos nucifera (coconut) oil, *Simmondsia chinensis (jojoba) seed oil, **Theobroma cacao (cocoa) seed butter, *Ricinus communis (castor) seed oil, *Olea europaea (olive) fruit oil, **Vanilla planifolia (vanilla) bean, organic flavors, Tocopherols (vitamin e)

*cold pressed / organic **raw & organic ***wildcrafted


Although the lip balm has a high oil content, it does not melt even in Singapore's high temperatures. The lip balm applies very silky and smooth without the usual drag of normal lip balm in a stick and leaves my lips very soft and slippery. It is colourless, and gives my lips a nice shine. Besides using it as a normal lip balm, I also use it under any lippie with drier texture to prevent my lips from getting parched.

Although it is on the pricier side (S$9.10 each) and the smell of the lip balm actually leans more towards caramel than vanilla, I do really like it as it does works to relieve my chapped lips without any petroleum in the product! In fact I liked it enough to have gone on and purchased another Moon Balm. For those who are interested to buy it, you can find it at selected Watsons (I found mine at the Watsons in Vivocity), or The Naturally Better Company.

New Aqualabel Collagen GL Cream

Aqualabel has recently launched a new product - Collagen GL Cream, at our local Watsons stores. What it does: Using Aqualabel’s exclusive Aqua Synergy technology, Collagen GL Cream is said to penetrate deeper into the skin layers and deliver moisture as well as effective ingredients into the skin while softening. Touted as a 5 in 1 gel cream, the Collagen GL Cream is supposed to be able to replace your lotion-emulsion-cream-essence-mask in one step ! Which means in one bottle, you get all the following functions: • Lotion-Softens the skin and prepares it for subsequent skincare • Emulsion-Balance the skin’s natural oil • Essence-Concentrated treatment of double hyaluronic acid and collagen to target dehydration and aging problems • Cream-Hydrating ingredients to retain moisture for long hours • Mask-Works as a sleeping mask to lock in the goodness of Collagen GL and Hyaluronic Acid when skin feels extremely dry. Sounds too good to be true isn't it? Imagine the...

The Little Black Beauty Box - Shiseido

Previously I bought a few boxes of Vanity Trove, but as I find the samples in Vanity Trove getting more and more uninteresting, I decided to look for other beauty boxes instead. After doing some research, I found the recently launched "The Little Black Beauty Box" (LBBB). A joint venture by mediacorp styleXstyle and Robinsons, each month, the LBBB delivers to your doorstep a box containing a variety of beauty products in a dedicated theme, all for just S$19.90 (free shipping in Singapore). Online reviews on the past boxes showed the boxes with reasonable sized samples from quite reputable brands, all for a lower price than Vanity Trove. So I decided to try out the August box which happens to be themed "Shiseido" a brand which I am a fan of. LBBB has a nice customer service which calls you up one week before delivery to confirm delivery timing, and finally after a long long wait (I order in early July), it finally arrived! Ribbon wrapped, the LBBB looks lik...
