Share tips on self-colouring hair!
Grandpa has full head of white when he turned 30.
I got the genes more then any of my siblings, inlcuding that one single and one double eyelid. -

You can't exactly reapply sunscreen on a powdered face.Originally posted by elindra:You have to bring it out for re-application
If not invest in a good face powder that provides UV protection
Siiigh... I try to wear hats when I have to go out under the hot sun now because the sun here is really so much harsher.

Same for me when I went to christchurch... but fortunately, the freckles are on my arms instead of my face.. phew!Originally posted by Rhonda:No use... I use sunblock religiously but since I came over to Melbourne, freckles has sprung up all over my face!!! -
The thais love their baby powder.Originally posted by elindra:If not invest in a good face powder that provides UV protection
It comes in 50g bottles and has spf15 too.
I've got a few bottles because they work as loose powder w/o the colours and it felt light on the face, especially when I am on those "I dont want to wear make up days'.
Shall I bring a few bottles for you ladies to try? -

can't believe the level of sycophancy the boss stoops to...
bloody take pictures of the senior management, she go and scrutinise those she angkat the most...
each one, already touched up, make ME go tell the photographer to "touch up" even more..
things like lines and whatsoever which actually add to the character are to be taken out.. photoshopped away and whatnot...
those whom are immune to her angkat, she doesn't bother..
so far, she's made me go tell the photographer to go photoshop our Dy Director's pic some more... remove line in eye.. remove this.. clean up stray hair...
whatever it is.. the photographer has already done the job and the Dy Dir looks natural.. any more and people will know it's a photoshop.. and it'll be a BAD photoshop..

Wow I didn't know they have that -
Tell you what, pm me a addy.Originally posted by Rhonda:You can't exactly reapply sunscreen on a powdered face. Siiigh...
I will post over some of those johnson's Pure Essentials powder in 50g bottles for you to try.
The pink powder works well on my shallow skin as opposed to their higher spf white powder. And they also comes in glitter version, for that extra sparker on your face, neck and exposed skin. -

I've been slapping on the sunblock for face and body and I avoid going out under the sun as much as I can. When I do, I even try to cover my arms and wear a hat and sunglasses but despite all that, I STILL get tanned!!
So yeah... looking very Aussie now with all the freckles! On bad days, I look in the mirror, and rattle off a string of expletives! 
On a good day, I think, quite kawaii!

Afterall, this is really SunCity! -
I still kinda missed that johnson lotion with baby powder, they no longer produce it I guess.Originally posted by elindra:They have baby bowder with SPF 15?
Wow I didn't know they have that
Its lotion and dries nicely into powder. Felt less icky when you are rushing off to work and the weathers crazy.
I have the pink powder on my face now, after my shower and after applying L'oreal lotion.
The lotion always felt sticky and greasy in asias warm weather and the powder on it help to cut the shine and the icky feel. And thais carries these in their bags and reapply as often as they can. Its about a good a practise like using sunblock.
And sunblock always felt too icky on the skin when you are outdoors. -
Soooo happy!!!
Yesterday, the Team Leader handed me an envelope with a $25 book voucher inside - a gift from a patient who wanted to say "Thank you!"
Sooooo happy happy happy!!! -
That was in the newspapers and current affairs tv programs here a while back.Originally posted by the Bear:
I'm not at high risk because I have lazy days like the day before and possibly today, when I step out of the house and rush to work... without applying sunscreen first!! -
Well, cosmetics powders usually cost much more.Originally posted by Rhonda:Waaah!! You're so sweet! I think I'll go see if they have those in the supermart here first. Afterall, this is really SunCity!
But over here, baby powders is the norm, so they have those small bottles for cheaper and its everywhere, like what shishedo does for Japan.
The johnson pure essential pink powder 50g is 28 baht. About S$1/- plus.
Buying them for you, is cheap. Posting over might be more expensive. -
*me mysteriously appears in a puff of smoke*
Just now I tried to take bus no. 30 instead of the MRT to school. I did that in the past to save money.... but eventually I switched to MRT.
Two buses came in the next 20 minutes....both were so jam-packed that no one could board them.
In the end, I gave up and took another bus to the nearest MRT.
Wasted at least 30 minutes. -
So how elindra?
Shall I buy some more for you girls to try?
They have a couple of brands, 'Babi Mild' being much cheaper and common. Maybe S$1/- for a 50g bottle.
'Johnsons' is more expensive. -
this be singapore..
already overpopulated, and soon to become even worse...Originally posted by fudgester:*me mysteriously appears in a puff of smoke*

Bus 30 is only packed till it reached Shenton Way & Hourbourfront. After that, its a painfully slow ride to Jurong? -
Siiiigh... gotta go work now.
Have a great rest of today, peeps!!

No. 30 is only packed until Shenton Way.... after that, it's smooth sailing.Originally posted by viciouskitty74:The bus journey and the time spent is not worth it lah.

However, both buses were so packed that no one could board.
The thing is, No.30 is almost as fast as the MRT, considering that I need connecting buses on both ends. I have to take a bus from home to Paya Lebar MRT, and another bus from Clementi MRT to NUS.
If I can board the bus, that is. -
The MRT is jammed packed everyday
Even if I make myself late for work it's still jammed packed
And I don't understand why those idiots like to crowd at the door
I always squeeze myself to the middle where the ride is more comfortable coz everyone is packed at the door
