Dolly Wink: Guinness World Record "Most Number of People Applying False Eyelashes!" Event


Tanjoubi omedetou gozaimasu Dolly Wink!

In celebrating Dolly Wink’s 5th year anniversary in business of beautifying the girls around the globe, they go for an extra mile to get it more memorable... They were there to break a Guinness World Record in Most People Applying False Eyelashes.

The invitation spread like a virus and most of the bloggers get to know about this event. I will confess I want to help Dolly Wink to grab the new record; this is for saying my thanks to them for great eyelashes and for all the events they held for the bloggers like me. Dolly Wink gave back by donating also at Breast Cancer Foundation by purchasing a pink ribbon for every registrant and they will donate a $2 for every selected Dolly Wink product that will be sold in 50 Watson’s branches island wide.







Let’s go and discuss this great experience. Well, this is my first time to participate in a World Guinness Book of Records. One of my mom/blogger-friend told me that I can slashed-out one item off my bucket list, good point right?! This event was held at Scape The Ground Theatre. They have the policy “once in, never out” that even an urgent thing to go to washroom is not an excuse.

We went in and about 30 minutes the program started. I was shocked that in front of the stage there is a boy participating in putting fake eyelashes. Well he is not the only one, I think there were also 3 more boys on the floor doing the same thing. Aren’t they cute? Haha!

There was a practice session and on first attempt I got it right but on actual and for the Guinness World Record, I got giddy and nervous and sought for assistance. Haha! When I saw the lashes on me, my colleague told me that they were really nice on my eyes. Haha! After Ms Fortuna confirmed all the participants, she handed the plaque to the President of the Dolly Wink. Champagne popped and the party confetti were all over the place.

Thanks Dolly Wink for this great celebration and the goodie bag.

Boudoir: Makeup by Allets and Photography by Mella Tan



It was just a year and look at her now, she is one of the known Filipino make-up artist here in Singapore. I saw her how she started this passion, the love of making herself and others feel confident and beautiful. That industry she chose was packed with oldies on that business but due to persistent and constant pushing of her friends, she reached her goal. Ate (sister in English) Allets is a mom of two and supervises people in a banking industry at Changi.

How I met her? She was our housemate for three years. OMG, this photoshoot was long planned but because of our busy schedule due to work and family that was the only time we had dealt to clear up out schedule just for this daring/holloween snaps.

At first I thought she will do a make up for me and she will be the one also doing the camera clicking, when I got home, her friend Ate Mella is there, another OMG, working for two professionals made me thinking if I can do exactly what I want. I took a shower to lower down the tension brewing inside me. Haha. Now they know the reason why I done that. Sorry for keeping you waiting for another minute. ;)

After I wore my small clothes, I paved my way to them and sat down in front of Ate Allets to wave her magic hands on me. 25minutes passed she asked me to go their room and we will start the session. Haha, maybe Ate Mella saw that I quite stressed to that idea, she asked me to relax. Then one hour of snapping filled with laughter was done. Thankie.



Those were the photos taken by Ate Mella.

They are not only for models, they had done also some weddings. You can see some of their works at their facebook page and wall.

I am simple girl but they bring out the confidence out of me. I hope sisters this will not be the last.

Clio's Killer Black Waterproof Pen Liner


First and foremost thank you Clio for selecting me to be your weekly winner. Now I have the very famous Kill Black Waterproof Pen Liner from Korea. =)

As I saw the pen, damn, it really suits its name, the tip can really kill, very sharp indeed. At first its difficult for me to slide it on, I am very used to brushes, but after a month, oh I am a master. Ha!




As it is designed like a pen, it can be use and slide on my lid without failing a small spot. The ink dries up easily. I trusted this eyeliner that I used this when me and my husband went to the F1 race, a whole day activity under the sun and soak on sweat, on this I tried how far this Kill Black will go. The eyeliner never fades and give me a killer look whole day. Nice isn't it?

Clio liners are available at Watsons islandwide.

Bifesta Sebum Cleansing Lotion (Non-rinse)


A sample was delivered and I almost forgot that I have this non-rinse make-up remover. I used before Shu Uemera Cleansing Oil but that product is way out of the budget. After We finished that oils, until now, we never buy another bottle. And due to that, I am so frantic to line-up my eyeliners again and I do not want to do a smoky eyes too.

It was our company appreciation night, I want to put some fierce and yet glimmered eyes together with my orange dress, anyway that was Saturday, no work for Sunday, if this cleansing lotion fails me, I have one more day to wash out the inks and colors of my eyeshadow.





After the party, I immediately got the vial, soaked my cotton pad with the lotion, put it on my eyes (as instructed). Yes! I am expecting that make up will be removed but not all and I am also expecting stains from my stubborn black eyeliner, but gosh, it was all gone. This is so awesome and yet so cheap.

This is only cost $4.90 in Watsons for 30ml bottle. Affordable. Very wallet friendly. Thanks Bifesta, can wear smoky eyes without blacked eyes the day after. :)

Kiehl’s Lip Balm #1

Wind, sun, dehydration and beverages are not only the factors of dry/chapped lips. Blame it also to the oral products we are using, mouthwash and toothpaste have chemicals that irritates the lips and results to dryness. This is what concerns me now.


After brushing teeth automatically I gargle for mouthwash, and it really leaves my lips dry. I am not fond using of any products on my lips, unless there is a special date to go, I will put on my brick red lipstick. But currently, I am so alarmed how my lips dries a lot this past few days. I have so many lip balm from different manufacturers but I chose to use Kiehl's first. Thank you to Cosmopolitan Singapore's "The Cosmo Caption Contest", there I got this product. 



I decided to put it on regularly every morning before going to office. Colorless, good point. I want to look as natural as I can in office. No blush on, no eyeliners and obviously lipstick is a big NO for me.

When I opened the tube, it make me think how to use it. After a small pinch, the gel will come out, am baffled what to use to get it from that tube. Should I use my fingers?, unsanitary. Put directly it on my lips?, the bacteria may develop to the opening itself. The greatest way is to use cotton buds... for me. 


For one week of using it, I really see the difference. No flaky lips in the afternoon, lesser dryness after my mouthwash routine, and my lips is softer than before. I never used petroleum jelly on any part of my body, why?, because it reminds me of the smell of my niece and nephews butts. Haha! But this lip balm with petroleum is odorless, nice one!  

Very recommendable to people who lives in a dry, hot place like Singapore or with snows. You can buy this lip balm with SPF4 for $17.

Blinc Eyeliner


Thanks Blinc for this sample. Okay, Blinc eyeliner is the first make-up I will do for a review. Bwena-Mano.

Blinc is known for the "tube technology" for their mascara. Now, they have this liquid eyeliner. I am not a real user of liquid eyeliner, why? I am afraid it will smudge then it will get in to my eyes. But now, I am here to trust this Blinc. Quite hesitant but need to get out of my comfort zone.




I applied blinc and there some things that I noticed.
1. It has a real black-black color which is quite nice.
2. It dries easily, no need to for me to go and face the electric fan for 2 minutes. Haha.
3. Its outcome was like I undergone to a tattoo for a eyeliner (big OK for me).
4. It never fades for a whole day of wearing it.
5. I am a contact lenses user and sometimes I uses a dropper for extra moisture on my eyes. Safe for me as it never smudges.
6. And lastly, all I need to do is some water to peel off. Yes correct term is "peel off" as it like you rub a dead skin off your eyes. No residue after all. No zombie eyes after. Hehe.

Thanks Blinc and Ms. Michele :)
