Update: Thanks for the overwhelming response! The winners are Rachel and Wendy. Congratulations ladies! We’ll be contacting you soon.

I’ve always feel that putting on cosmetic lenses is extremely scary and I’ll never ever try it in my entire life, but boy I was so wrong.

I attended the CIBA VISION FreshLook Illuminate event at Dempsey last month and tried on the cosmetic lenses for the very first time!

The event was held at Seen@Dempsey and this place is totally cool! It’s an optical boutique with a cafe ambience concept.

With Belinda, Esther and Nadia.

And the rest of the ladies.

FreshLook Illuminate is designed specially for Asian eyes for a natural look. The unique starburst pattern blends the coloured ring into the iris of the eyes to make eyes naturally bigger and more beautiful.

Before and after putting on FreshLook Illuminate cosmetic lenses. Notice the HUGE difference?

After trying them on, I was really amazed by the effect. I can’t believe that they can enlarge my irises so significantly. I think my eyes look brighter and dolly-like. I should go down to the optometrist soon and get more FreshLook Illuminate cosmetic lenses!

Tempted already? I am giving away two boxes of FreshLook Illuminate to two lucky readers of mine! You will need to go down to the optometrist to do a prescription before the correct lenses will be given to you. To win them, simply fill in the blanks:

Wearing FreshLook Illuminate make your eyes appear ________ and ________, instantly!

Update: Forgot to mention, you may visit this website to get hints!

Email me using this contact form and I will randomly pick the winners.

Good luck!

I’m ashamed to say that I do not know what cervical cancer is all about.

But after attending the POCC event, I learnt that cervical cancer is a common and preventable disease. Power Over Cervical Cancer (POCC) is a campaign to help women in Singapore to protect themselves against cervical cancer.

Cervical Cancer is the 6th most common cancer among women in Singapore. More than one woman die from cervical cancer every 5 days in Singapore. Shocking!

Spread the word and protect yourselves and your loved ones from this disease. You can prevent it by doing a pap smear or HPV Vaccination.

I encourage all women to go for a vaccination to protect ourselves from HPV and cervical cancer.

Prevention is always better than cure.

Shiseido celebrated her 40th anniversary last week and I am extremely proud to be part of the family of such a prestige brand.

The walls are plastered with Shiseido’s history way back to the 70s. I was not even born yet! It was a splendid sight and looking at the photos gives me a warm, fuzzy feeling. The smiles on the people, the satisfaction and great service that the staff provide to the customers and the effort to create innovative products to keep up with the skincare and makeup trends.

Here’s the adorable Ettusais counter!

Love the polka dots!

Majorlica Majorca!

What a lovely bird cage!

Thereafter, we were ushered into the room for a short presentation of Shiseido’s life journey. It was amazing to know how Shiseido influenced the lives of many ladies in Singapore. I’m sure all ladies out there would agree.

Kan bai to Shiseido!

Me with Nad, an ambassador for Majorlica Majorca.

Ambassadors for Ettusais and Majorlica Majorca.

With the lovely Nanny Sherry.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO SHISEIDO! Wishing you many great years ahead!

The European Union Film Festival is an annual event that showcases a collection of films which draws on the diverse and rich culture of Europe. I was being invited to the European Union Film Festival’s Blogger Movie Fiesta held at the Spain Embassy last week to watch a film from Luxembourg named Irina Palm.

Irina Palm tells the story of a 50-year-old widow who desperately needs money to pay for her grandson’s hefty medical fees. Driven to the edge, she becomes a sex worker in order to cope with the financial difficulties. Under the pseudonym Irina Palm, her job is to help pleasurise male customers by using her hands. As for how she does it, I’ll leave that to your imagination and do catch the film while you can!

From 6 to 16 May 2010, 17 films from 17 different countries will be showcased in Golden Village VivoCity. Tickets for public sessions are available from 22 April 2010 at the GV VivoCity box-office, online at www.gv.com.sg and at AXS stations islandwide.
