DAY 1 : 6 SEPTEMBER 2013

Started the day with my morning skincare regimen with Chanel’s Double Perfection as my basic foundation today. My first activity of the day was the pilates classes at Fitness First Singapore during the morning. After exercising, I will usually use the Avene Eau Thermale Thermal Spring Water to freshen and hydrate my face before washing and toning it with La Mer The Cleansing Foam and The Tonic. Before reapplying my foundation, i moisturized my face with SK-II Facial Treatment Essence. Later the day, I went to pick up my younger son for tuition before heading home and made dinner for my family. After dinner, I indulged myself in the latest taiwan beauty shows. Went through my night regimen and had used Naruko Sleeping Mask (HA Hydro-Lock Moisturizing).

 

DAY 2 : 7 SEPTEMBER 2013

Started my day with the usual morning regimen of cleansing, toning, moisturizing and applying day cream and sunscreen on my face before finishing it with La Roche Laboratories Anthelios XL SPF 50 Tinted Melt in Cream. Went for Dim Sum brunch with my friends at Somerset Triple-One Imperial Treasure Steamboat Restaurant. After brunch, I headed to SK-II Spa Boutique for my monthly facial treatment – tried out the ‘Perfecting Luxe’ facial treatment today. After that, I chanced upon Tangs and picked up a sample pack of the newly launched Lancome Advanced Genifique which i had heard so much about from my friend. But still, I’m reluctant to switch as I’m rather comfortable with my current regime. Later on, I had dinner with my husband at Liang court before doing some grocery shopping at Meidi-ya Supermarket. Did my night regimen but instead of using SK-II stempower as my anti-aging serum, I had used the sample packet of Lancome Advanced Genifique. Overall, Lancome Advanced Genifique felt more oily and sticky but it serves the same purpose of SK-II Stempower. I shall try it for a few more days.

 

DAY 3 : 8 SEPTEMBER 2013

Family Day! Started my favourite day with the usual morning regime of cleansing, toning, moisturizing and applying day cream and sunscreen on the face before topping it with La Roche Laboratories Anthelios XL SPF 50 Tinted Melt in Cream. Brought my kids out to catch the movie - Ilo Ilo before having dinner at the Bah Kut Teh shop just located under the overhead bridge at Clarke Quay station. Did my night regimen and used Naruko Sleeping Mask (Arbutin Intense Brightening Mask).

 

DAY 4 : 9 SEPTEMBER 2013

Started the day with my morning regimen and Chanel’s Double Perfection as my basic foundation today. Went for a gym session today with my gym buddies before having lunch at Starbucks where I had my green tea latte and a sandwich near my gym. After exercising, as usual, I used the Avene Eau Thermale Thermal Spring Water to hydrate my face before washing and toning it with La Mer The Cleansing Foam and The Tonic. Went home later and made dinner for my family. Along the way, I picked up a copy of Her World Taiwan Magazine to check out the latest products! Did my usual night regimen.

DAY 5 : 10 SEPTEMBER 2013

Started today’s morning regimen with cleansing, toning, moisturising without applying day cream and sunscreen as I would be spending my day at home. Have to keep myself busy unpacking stuff and landscaping the garden at the new house because we had just moved in a couple months ago. While at that, I made some dumplings for my family too. With the other free time, I spent them by reading through the magazines which I made to be my monthly affair; I loved checking out the new products. I was also watching some taiwan beauty shows to get my beauty updates. Today, they were discussing about Clinique’s latest summer moisturizers which led me to do a quick research on Clinique products when I realised I haven’t been using any of them.  Did my night regimen and decided that today will be my last day using Lancome Advanced Genifique. I will be switching back to SK-II Stempower because it doesn’t feel so sticky on my face. During the night, I used Naruko Sleeping Mask (VC Brightening & Deep Hydrating Mask).

 

DAY 6 : 11 SEPTEMBER 2013

Went for my yoga class in the morning before heading to town to have tea with some friends at TWG tea house. As usual, I started the day with my morning regimen and again with Chanel’s Double Perfection as my basic foundation today but I did top it with with Shiseido Luminizing Lip Gloss. After my exercise, I used the Avene Eau Thermale Thermal Spring Water to freshen up my skin before washing, toning and moisturizing my face. Needless to say, I wore back my Chanel Double Perfection as my basic foundation with Shiseido Luminizing Lip Gloss. Since I was in town, I went over to Sephora to try out the Clinique products before heading to the Meidi-ya Supermarket at Liang Court for some grocery shopping. Did my usual night regimen with SK-II Stempower as my anti-aging serum and it felt so good to be using it again. Also, I had used SK-II Cellumination Mask-in Lotion for my night masking session!

 

DAY 7 : 12 SEPTEMBER 2013

Last day of my diary – Wow! It felt like a long journey. Started my day with my usual morning regimen of cleansing, toning, moisturizing without applying the day cream as I would be spending my day at home again unpacking and packing stuff and also landscaping the garden. Had lots of fun today with my children as we had a game of badminton at our backyard. Did my usual night regimen.
