Like every other day, Shelly woke up at 7am in the morning to prepare breakfast for her family with the help of her domestic maid. Today, she prepared Taiwanese porridge with stir-fried ricecake, a family favorite. Before leaving her house, Shelly went through her usual morning regimen of cleansing, toning and moisturising. For sun protection, she applied day cream and sunscreen lotion on her face. Shelly had been sticking to this routine even since she hits 45. She topped it off with her foundation, La Roche Laboratories Anthelios XL SPF 50 Tinted Melt in Cream as a basic coverage for her skin.
ONE DAY OBSERVATION
At 11.30am, I met her in the Fitness First outlet in Paragon. She was dressed in a dark blue Lululemon yoga outfit, carrying a brown leather tote bag. She told me that she goes to the gym for group classes three times a week. After the yoga session, Shelly took a quick shower. I noticed that she has a travel size pouch, filled with miniature bottles of her usual skincare products. Before washing her face with La Mer The Cleansing Foam, she used the Avene Eau Thermale Thermal Spring Water to freshen and hydrate her face. After that, she toned her skin with La Mer The Tonic and moisturized it with SK-II Facial Treatment Essence, before reapplying her foundation. She changed into a simple white blouse that she bought from a boutique shop in Taiwan and a pair of black Uniqlo leggings. She completed her outfit with a pair of heels from Pedro and a Coach handbag.
Before we went for lunch, she headed back to the carpark to put her gym bag in the car. We had a light lunch at PS. Cafe. She ordered a grilled chicken sandwich with a small serving of portobello mushroom soup. Before meeting her friends for afternoon tea at Paul, she dropped by Kinokuniya to pick up the latest issue of Vogue Taiwan and Elle Hong Kong. She explains that she enjoys reading magazines like these as she can keep herself updated on the latest trends and beauty products. We parted upon meeting her friends. I met her again before she went for her hair treatment appointment at Phyto Hair Spa. She told me that this hair spa was featured many times in her favorite magazine and was the winner of the Her World Beauty Awards last year. After finishing her treatment, she stopped by Laduree to buy some macarons for her younger son before heading home for dinner with her family. We then went our separate ways.
After having dinner, she enjoys watching Friendly Fire with her family which her husband bought awhile ago. Before sleeping, she showered and did her night skincare regimen as usual. For this night, she used the SK-II Cellumination Mask-in Lotion.
Shelly.
