Lazada Online Revolution 2017: SASA x Lazada Surprise Box

November 5, 2017 by Zoe Leave a Comment

Hey guys!

Mark the dates for Online Revolution 2017 on Lazada SG, where you will go crazy over the deals happening on 11th November (11.11), and 12th-14th December (12.12). Get prepared for more than 110 flash deals, up to 90% discounts, and our favourite $29 Surprise Boxes!

Lazada SG will be launching their super popular Surprise Boxes again! They have partnered with brands including Etude House, Maybelline, Mamonde, SASA, and Laneige just to name a few, for the beauty category. Each box is priced affordably at $29, yet contains products worth more than $100.

The Lazada surprise boxes are launched in batches, so you have to take note of the particular timings for the brands that you want in order to catch them. The boxes are SO GOOD that they are usually snapped up shortly after launching. Check timing by clicking on the link!


Sneak Peak into Lazada x SASA Surprise Box

To prove its worth and still maintain its secrecy, I will be giving a sneak peek into the SASA x Lazada Surprise Box.

First item out of the box and I am already impressed. GOSH Beauty Box is a make up kit comprising of 4 items. Yes you heard me right, 4 make up items! Honestly, just this alone makes the SASA x Lazada Surprise Box worth getting because this kit already costs $60 on its own! And they are all full-sized items. If you have been eyeing this kit, this is a good chance to snag it.

GOSH Beauty Box

Mono Eye Shadow 012 Silver | Velvet Touch Lipstick 003 Matte | Velvet Touch Eye Liner 023 Black Ink Waterproof | Lash Sculpting Fibre Mascara

Beautiful products with sleek jet black packaging. GOSH products featured here are cruelty-free and paraben-free.

GOSH Lash Sculpting Fibre Mascara Review

The fibres are wispy and thin, as compared to thick and visible fibres from other mascaras. It does not provide much volume, but rather lengthens and fans out the lashes gently to create a feathery effect. I do love its effect on my lashes, I was however disappointed in its staying power, because it started smudging on me by mid day, and just got worse by night. If I had not checked the mirror, I would have gone around with panda eyes, which is.. a no-no. I think the formula is definitely more suited for dryer and cooler climates, and not for our warm and humid weather. What a pity. :)

Rating: 1/5

Do still check out how it looks on the eyes below!

Velvet Touch Eye Liner 023 Black Ink and Velvet Touch Lipstick Matte 003 Review

Lash Sculpting Fibre Mascara and Velvet Touch Eye Liner on the eyes, and Velvet Touch Lipstick Matte 003 on the lips.

The Velvet Touch Eye Liner is a soft formula that draws easily, and I used it to tight-line my upper lashes 3/4 from the outer corners. And just a little on the outer corners of my lower lashes to create more definition. It is supposedly highly waterproof and smudge-proof, which I do think is true. When my panda eyes appeared, I was contemplating whether it was caused by the mascara or eye liner; and it turned out to be the mascara. The eyeliner was still there by night time, although just a little less intense than before.

Rating: 4/5

I love the Velvet Touch Lipstick in Matte 003! It is this mauve shade that is pretty close to my natural lip colour, only darker. So I like how natural it looked on me. Nothing too much out of the norm, which is great for nude make up. It is also easy to apply and does not crack my lips thanks to natural waxes and hyaluronic acid content. Creamy, yet not sticky at all, and allows for comfortable wear all day long.

Rating: 5/5

What else is inside the Sasa x Lazada Surprise Box?

Well.. that is for you to find out. :P

Is it worth getting?

Absolutely! In fact all of the Lazada Surprise Box are worth getting because the $100 value is guaranteed. I am eyeing some of the branded boxes myself and will be buying them too!


More exciting deals for you.

From 11.11 to 14.12, the first 100 new customers of Lazada SG can enjoy an 18% discount (capped at $11) if they key in voucher code LAZOR2017NEW.

And if you spend more than $100 on 11.11 itself, you stand a chance to win a trip for 2 to NASA in Florida worth $5000!

What are you waiting for? Head over to Lazada SG now and start creating your WISHLIST now! :)

Retro Elegance // Twist Lock Yellow Tan Backpack from Mizzue

September 25, 2017 by Zoe 1 Comment

Hi ladies,

Thanks for checking out my latest fashion post on the blog. I’m featuring the Tania Isacson Yellow Tan Backpack that Mizzue sent over last month. I have been using this cute backpack for sourcing trips, days when I need my hands to be free; and getting to know its beauty.

Its twist lock front feature is little reminiscent of a Hermes’ Birkin bag, which also functions as a drawstring that pulls and secures the bag opening together. I’m not denying, the twist lock sealed the deal for me when deciding because it is so classy and elegant.

On the other hand, it can get a little difficult to close the bag when the bag is filled with items, as I have to pull both straps and aim for the twist to lock the straps in place.

I selected the bag in Yellow Tan colour after consideration that I am usually in earthy colours, and a bright tan backpack would compliment my outfits. This backpack is cheery, outstanding, and eye-catching in an instant.

It is well-made in smooth, luxurious PU leather, and finished with beautiful neat stitches. There were no loose ends and even stitches in the inner lining was nicely finished. There are several slip compartments and a zippered pocket within the bag that allows for keys, personal items, and phone.

I have personalised my Mizzue bag by hanging my favourite Lip Balm Holder made by yours truly on the side. This makes it extremely easy for me to reach out for my lip balm during the day.

It is hard to find a backpack designed so fashionably made in buttery PU leather. I love its subtle star-shaped silhouette that gives it a more organic look (although I think you can tuck the sides in and the whole bag would just be rectangular).

Dakota Crescent // A Peek into one of Singapore’s oldest Neighbourhoods

The photos for this post were taken at Dakota Crescent, one of Singapore’s oldest public housing and neighbourhoods. I’m sure many photography professionals and enthusiasts have combed this place to bits to capture its last moments before it gets torn down. For Hammy and I, we too went for a photo-walk to this quaint deserted place.

The elderly residents have since moved to newly-built, tall HDB flats nearby. I’m not sure how they feel about moving away from the place they might have lived for over half of their lives, but I sure feel a tinge of sadness that such a beautiful and special neighbourhood is going to be torn down soon. As for kampong spirit, even though the residents have moved to a new place, it is still evident in friendly gatherings at the void decks of the new HDB blocks. :)

Thank you Mizzue for this collaboration!
