Let's make Animal-Testing non-existent.

Have you got a pet at home, let's say a dog, a cat, hamsters, rabbits or even any other pets you might have as a companion?
Do you love them everyday that you would want to cuddle them and brush your hands against their furry bodies?
Calling out to them everyday when you get back home after a long day of work, and them running towards you seems to relieve all that fatigue you have?

Thank you for loving your pet. Similarly, I hope you would love any other any animals/pets even if they do not belong to you.
Whenever we purchase a cosmetic product, have we ever though of what goes behind the scene to manufacture and make these products?
In order to beautify ourselves, how many innocent lives have been taken away just to make sure these products are suitable for our skin?
I am definitely not a saint, there are times that I bought cosmetic products not knowing what went behind the scenes. However, as we start to gain awareness about how all these cosmetics are being tested, we can make a difference to the lives of these innocent animals!

The Body Shop and Cruelty Free International have united to bring about this awareness to United Nations. Recently, dogs were taken to the streets, right outside the United Nations headquarters in New York to protest against animal testing. It is shocking that approximately 80% of the world still do no ban cosmetic animal tests.
So right now, The Body Shop and Cruelty Free International are calling out to all of us to sign this petition, in which upon reaching 8 million signatures, this petition will be presented to United Nations and promote the opportunity of banning animal testing for cosmetic products.

Across the span of 6 months, 4.1 million signatures have been collected, which makes us 3.9 million signatures away to make the lives of these animals a better one. Are you willing to be a part of this campaign and make these animals live a happier life like how your pets are in your household?
If so, you can pledge your support over at Forever Against Animal Testing.

I have made my pledge towards this, what about you?

Together, let's make a difference to our world. And to a happier world that we live in with all these cuddly fur balls that could possibly be alive 😀

love,
cynnie.

The truth of my skin..revealed.

Aloha people!

It's sunny season (still) in Singapore, but thank goodness for the frequent showers lately.

Chase away those haze go go!

So just last week, I made a trip down to Orchard alone (yay to my favorite quality time) for Ioma's new launch of a special serum.

Erm...special serum?

To me, it's like 什么东东, what are you talking about?

I had to make myself down to witness this "special serum" with my eyes before I can believe something like this existed.

Sorry, I need assurance haha so no chance is slipping away from me!

Before it all started... I had to fill up all my necessary particulars as it's going to be linked all under my profile~

And that's when my own serum will be born into this world.

It's like suited for my DNA thingy, just kidding!

But it's gonna be like the baby of your skin, specially to treat you, and bring you joy upon seeing this glow on your face after using it!

It was like having a whole photo booth to myself.

Whoop whoop!

It was indeed an interesting experience too!

it's like...you know those machines to check your eyesight?

Yes those kind of technology

And that's my assistant from Ioma analyzing my face!

The results of my analysis...

Hydration level can be improved...

with a tad bit higher sensitivity...

Bacterial level activity can be improved...(time to clean my sponge)

okay I will work on it :P

Can't miss out taking a photo with her!

She was like super friendly and nice to me.

Appreciate it!

Analyzing for the perfect serum for my face.

Sounds so magical, like I'm trying to customize my own baby.

You know how it works like The Sims?

Yes those kind!!

Pop-up area at Robinsons The Space @ Heeren!

Amazingly cool.

Outfit of the Day!

Remember how your serum is customized to your skin condition?

These cupcakes are customized to your preference too!

What a sweet and thoughtful concept ;)

This is like...science.

So many formulations, so many different skin types.

So many....different YOU.

What's more, this machine costs up to a billion dollars just to formulate something ideal for your skin.

So much effort, so much technology!

Which somehow relates me back to the though of how different each of us are.

In personality, characteristics, looks and our mindsets.

So, how people look at us doesn't matter.

What matters, is how we look at ourselves, which we constantly forget about. 

However, we need no machine for being who we are.
Just be...ourselves :)

goodbye,
cynnie.

Summer Indulgence...have you indulged yet?

SAY HELLO TO SUMMER!

I felt so privileged to be able to attend this preview event organized by:
Tsubaki x Senka x Aqua Label

Let's get tannin'!

With the fairy-like Anna over at Sentosa!

Ever lovely Gwen :)

I love the view over at Sentosa!

Taken from The Coastes located just by Siloso Beach :)

BTS of those photos we've taken!

Aqua Label Whitening Jelly Essence

This is definitely even better than my 3-in-1 instant coffee because...

boy oh boy, this thing works like a multi-tasker.

Besides being a whitening product,

it acts an emulsion,

moisturizer and like a toner!

What's better than investing in 1 product rather than 4 at a go?

I simply love the cooling sensation which I felt when applying this!

Especially in those hot and dry weather argh. :(

Have I ever mentioned how much I love Senka's speedy perfect whip foam?

Even when I'm cleansing my face, I have so much fun with those foam bubbles!

Sounds like a kid but hey, we need childhood moments at times too :)

Currently using this UV sunscreen back in Florida for my facial use.

Under the broad daylight which I work at, this definitely came into good use!

With a 50+ SPF UV protection, I have no fear going under the sunlight, but of course, it depends on the weather climate that you are going under as well!

*oh and to mention that I love parking at Typhoon Lagoon even though it puts my life at risk at times*

I sincerely apologize to the sponsors and organizers from Senka, Aqua Label as well as Tsubaki as my review is not fully complete.

I have initially made a vlog post about all of the products but apparently I only realized that I have to redo it when I got to the States :(

I have been trying to edit the video to make it as flawless as I can but apparently, I've been trying too hard.

Which resulted into a delay for this post :/

I sincerely apologize to the organizers as well like Whitespace for this poor blog post done by me.

Sorry!

goodnight,

cynnieco.

[REVIEW] Hiruscar Post-Acne Review &... some little thoughts of mine.

Hey guys!

If you have read the teens magazine for May issue, you would probably have a whole lot of idea what I'm saying today.

Yes this!!!

As you guys have known, Hiruscar has been a long established brand which produces mainly cream/gel products that are targeted at removing scars from your skin.

Be it burnt scars, cuts or some might be the after-effect scars from injections that you've once got.

But of course, besides those scars that one might suffer from injuries, what about pimple scars?

You know those that might actually leave pock marks on your face?

Yes those!!

So Hiruscar is here to help!

Really want to thank Teens magazine for allowing me to review on this product which can also be found on one of the bulletin of teens magazine!

What I LOVE about this product is definitely the narrow opening of the product.

You wouldn't have to worry about squeezing out too much at one go which means...

You can use it for even longer!

At just $19.90, this product is worth an investment.

When I applied it upon my face,

I could feel the cooling and tingling effect on my face which feels like my skin was literally being stretched.

Which feels like it's smoothing out your face!

Sounds like botox feel right I know haha but this is for scar and not some wrinkles issues.

It is now available at those  pharmaceutical places such as guardian & Watsons etc.

So get yours now!

And maybe also teens magazine to show some support? :p

Once again, I would like to thank teens magazine for featuring me for the Hiruscar review and also for one of their features!

------------------

Now, it's officially 21 days, 3 weeks to go before I bid goodbye to Singapore for a couple of months.

I have mixed feelings.

Of course, the excitement of seeing Mickey Mouse & friends is definitely there!

But the pain of leaving my loved ones is definitely hurting me as well.

I do hope that the couple of months there will be a peaceful, fun and definitely unforgettable for me ;)

Besides, so many meet ups with my friends over the 3 weeks that I can't wait to see them!! :)

If you've been following my instagram as well,

Yes, I'm back for some Baking Addiction with #daisycooks!

Butter-less, sugar-less, whole wheat chocolate cupcakes which I think did not turn out too well as the butter smell is still the most distinctive point of a cupcake.

Tough luck trying to be healthy while indulging :(

But that doesn't mean I'm giving up!!

I will master it soon.

But meanwhile, I can't resist anymore butter.

True love of original M&M cookies, which means with butter, plain flour and loads and loads of M&Ms!!

So glad that my colleagues loved it because I specially baked it for them :')

one last peanut butter cookies before I leave Singapore and my lovely colleagues from La Senza!

In case you don't know, yes I work there HAHA.

my favourite shot of all times ;)

And I guess I should probably become a Thai.

My favourite Thai Ruby!!

Look at all those wonderful colours whoops whoops.

Right down my tummy wummy with none left you :p

Want to know more about all these cooking and stuff or any relevant topics you guys want me to blog about?

Let me know because I will be more willing to know it ;)

goodbye sweethearts,

cynnie
