I won myself a set of Liese Bubble Hair Color from CozyCot! Here are the TV commercials from Japan, isn’t that foamy little mascot adorable?
The color I’ve won was Glossy Brown, somewhat similiar to my hair color now, hence I decided to be the guinea pig!
Combine the mixture and gently shake the bottle to mix the content together. By the way, the smell is really pungent.
Squeeeeze the foam out, wheeeeee! Apply it on the whole head and gently massage it all the way into your hair roots. Wait for 30 minutes before rinsing off with your own color shampoo and apply the leave-in conditioner which comes in the package. Here’s the end result!
With flash.
Without flash.
TADAAAAA! It’s really simple to use it. I forgot to take a “before” picture but I had black roots initially. So you can imagine it.
The Liese Bubble Hair Color can found at major departmental stores and is retailing at SGD19.90. Have fun DIY-ing!

I attended Jurlique’s Breakfast Party early in the morning at Tangs from 10am 12pm 2 weeks ago. Of all times, there was a jam over at Moulmein Road when I was already late! Luckily, I wasn’t THAT late and managed to reach on time before the talk starts.
Jurlique counter at Tangs Orchard.
I was craving for some food and thank God the people from Jurlique was nice enough to provide light snacks for us. How sweet!
The highlight of the day was the Purely Age-Defying SPF 15, which promises to help protect our skin from the sun naturally. Jurlique grow 95% of their pure plant-based ingredients on their certified organic and biodynamic farms in Southern Australia. Organic products are said to be suitable for people who have sensitive skin.
Chamomile – one of the key ingredients they used for their products. It smells terrific and reminded me of the tea.
Jurlique Biodynamic Beauty Refining Treatment is an exfoliator that has fine micro-crystals (made of apricot seed powder) that helps to smooth and polish the skin gently. I tested some on my hand and it managed to smoothen my skin.
