On Teeth Whitening!

Last week, while having a meeting in one of the hotels in the country, some girls are giving away a loot bag from a prestigous cosmetic salon in the city.   I and one of my staff, together with a client were one of the priviledged few who got the loot bag including this:

The bag includes a T-shirt, a Gift Certificate (above picture) that would be worth a facial service from their salon and also lots of their services’ brochures. Hmm, I should try to use the GC soon. But what caught my fancy is their dental services. I was suprised that they also offer dental cosmetic. I have few brides who are actually bugging me to research on this thing. I actually inquired over the phone and was totally suprised as well for the steep price of their services. I think it is overly priced. Well, that is my opinion. So what I did is to ask from a dentist friend for some alternative for teeth whitening products. She told me to check out Smile Warehouse which is a well known online shop for all dental needs. And there I saw indeed that they have very reasonably-priced whitening toothpaste for as low as $6.95. I am amazed with the variety of dental products that they offer online. They have all the latest items for all oral hygiene needs. In fact, most US dentists prefer ordering from them since they offer everything at a warehouse price and even provide a timely shipping.

And for my brides who needs instant teeth whitening, I would recommend Zoom Touch-Up Kit, which is a bleaching gel that has been proven to whiten teeth up to six shades in only 3 nights!  I would recommend using this like 1-2 weeks before the wedding.  This product is a very good option for person, (like a bride) who just needs a little touching up before the big day.  And with its rate of just $22.95, it’s a definitely a great steal.  

And for anyone looking for cutting-edge dental products, I highly recommend that you check this.

Beauty Buys

I am excited for the trip to Singapore this Tuesday. I have a long list of items to check including BAGS, shoes (heard, it is cheap there!) Children’s Clothes, some toys, and more Healthy and Beauty products. I want to buy new make-up lines so I’m searching for cosmetic guide from Shopwiki. I’m looking to update my routine by trying out new bronzers and concealers.

I also would like to check new fragrances as I only have two bottles left. I have been reviewing new scents available in the market today. I have always been leaning on a fresh scent so I am sticking with it. There is a new line from Escada called Into the Blue which has been getting good reviews. Other options I am looking at are Estee Lauder Blue Paradise or the Marc Jacobs Splash.  

I think with my long list of items to check, I need to allot 2 days for shopping alone!  Most of my friends said it’s kinda hot in there lately so I better bring in some Sun Protection as we would be out most of the time! Can’t wait, can’t wait for tuesday! It is a bonding vacation with the husband.

My secret make-up!

So what do you actually look for in a make-up?  A  number of people commented on me for the past months that I have a very flawless skin.  Wow, this is so flattering.  I made a love affair to mineral makeup about a year ago and that is actually my secret.  Well a number of my friends really know that I’m one of the biggest advocate of Bare Escentuals mineral make-up. I love all their products from foundation, blushes, glimmers, all over face color to lipsticks, mascaras and even their brushes! I’m a collector! Why do I love it? Read this:
