Thursday, 6 February 2014 @ 10:19Bride-to-be Alert: Fluffbakery Cupcakes
Hola,
I didn't know that my previous post on Han's Skin Care went viral. I had more than 2000 people reading that post itself within 1 day! That's crazy! I'm pretty sure all of you users are very much interested to know my skincare update - And walaaaaah~ I will update from time to time on my skincare journey with Han's Skin Care, I promise.
Many came asking me this and that about the product, is it true that this product does wonders - Well my answer for that is, different product have different wonders but this product does MAGIC on my skin. It is suitable for both genders, so for those guys out there if you happen to be reading my blog too, join in the journey to a healthier skin. As simple as a clear skin canvas looks a lot better than having pimples and oily skin right?
So if you want to try this product, you want to feel confident with yourself, you rimas with all those makeup on your face, sick and tired of the horrible pimple popping suke-suke they want to appear:
I will be more than happy to explain an in-depth details of the product.
Okay enough of that for now ...
So look at the title again: Bride to be alert - FLUFFBAKERY CUPCAKES!
Uhhh, those babies - who doesn't know of them. If you don't you prolly tinggal dalam cave of something. They are extremely popular that queues are form even before they open the shop. Gile-gile!
What's so nice about these cupcakes? What makes them different from other cupcakes branding?
Good question! Firstly they are HALAL - very important! Secondly they are creative with their flavours. To be honest, ANYONE can bake Nutella Red Velvet cupcakes or Salted Caramel Cupcakes but korang try uh google Ondeh-ondeh cupcakes or Mango Stick Rice cupcakes - ade ke receipe dia on internet? Takde kan! That's what make them SUPER SPECIAL, nie bukan special lagi, nie dah SUPER SPECIAL!
Okay recently I heard, TAK TAO IF BETOL OR NOT, that they are taking order for lucky-bride to be of 2014 - they'll be baking for those lucky bride (JEALOUS!) and as I was browsing through Instagram I saw this:
"... It will be the first time Fluff Bakery will be taking wedding cake orders and we will be doing so ONLY via the event."
OH MY GOD, LUCKY BRIDE! TAK SUKE LAAAAHHH. Please invite me to your wedding so that I can a slice of the wedding cake.
BUT!
2015 BRIDES PLEASE READ THIS - Ehem(like me!) so that's a plus point!
Let's all stalk their instagram(they have like 21k followers) and send in our request once they open up this slot to the 2015 brides! I'm pretty sure they'll open up the slot pretty soon, but I'm not too sure when. But if they do, Brides-to-Be of 2015, please please please send in your request because having them to bake your wedding cake means a lot! Like A lot! Best of luck to everysingle one of you *sending flying kisses*
Anyhoots, I was on MC today, no not an excuse not to attend work, but I was sick. I think tengah musim. Lost my voice on tuesday and till today(sadly) maseh belom baik. Tune ade lari.
I saw that they're having Horlick cupcakes today as one of the flavours, wasted no time. Showered and off to their shop. Reached Fluffbakery at about 12.20pm? The Q was expected. Dah macam ular, punyalah panjang. They issued out Q-no. in order to serve us better which I think is pretty efficient coz' people without the Q-no. are not allowed to order. BAGUS KALAU TAK KAN, BANYAK YANG PLAYCHEAT, TAK SUKE!
and so my queue number was......
Waited for about 30 minutes before it was my turn. I ordered 6 Horlicks Cupcakes, 3 Nutella Red Velvet and 3 Salted Caramel - let me clarify, I wasn't being greedy! These are shared with my siblings and the pregnant sister was having her craving, like usual.
The person who served me got my order wrong initially she packed 6 red velvet instead of 6 horlicks - didn't blame her, maybe she can't hear me clearly since my voice is too husky still. Plus she was friendly, so yah, and I'm not a fussy customer, I just want my cupcakes. Heh!
Chopchopchop! Travelled back to my pregnant sister's house and had to wait bawah block for 20 minutes coz' she went to fetch her daughter from school. While waiting - I SWEAR the cupcakes was calling me. They went something like
"Eat me, Fill your tummy! Eat me! Eat me!"
Urggghh! Tak boleh tahan! The smell was crazy good that I just had to.....get that first bite! It's been ages tao tak tunggu kan this Horlicks flavour to come. Actually, they should make this permanent because the Nutella Red Velvet is too mainstream already, sadly that's the truth.
LOOK AT THAT.. OH MY GOD, JUST LOOKING AT IT MAKES ME WANT MORE AND MORE!
So yah, if this picture tempt you, for those who never tried them before. Please be kiasu and start queuing up tomorrow at 11am. There's a limit of 12 cupcakes per person. Okay pe, 2 kotak tuh!
And so that's the end of this wonderful cupcake story, the moment i stepped into my pregnant sister home, I ate the second one. HAH! Puas hati beta!
So before i knock out, sebab mata nie dah tak boleh tahan, Let me just show you something. A good comparison between Day 1 with Han's Skin Care and Day 24 with Han's Skin Care
So how, ready to embark the flawless and healthy skin with me my dearest BTB and the rest of my readers?
I've just received the superwhite glitter just now, and currently using it while typing this post. I'll do a review on this when I see the results, lets say in a week or so? So check this space again especially my dearest Brides-To-Be!
Till then!

Wednesday, 5 February 2014 @ 03:56Skincare Junkies: Hans Skin Care is HSA Approved
Hola, It's been a long long time since I last updated this blog. Ahhhhhh... This topic memang kena diblogkan because currently I am on my 3rd week to a flawless skincare journey with Hans Skin CareFirst and foremost, This product is from Malaysia. I don't deny that this 3 weeks are extremely difficult. I started to panic big time when I heard rumors about this product actually contains mercury. Ade lah yang cakap this product is a re-branding of Tabitha - I bet many of you heard of this brand before, it's illegal in Singapore and it's not approved by HSA due to the ingredients used, and yes this Tabitha product have mercury. So whoever have been badmouthing on this product, I suggest you guys go put your product for test first. Prove to us(Hans Skin Care) users that ________________________ isn't a rebranding of Esther, another cosmetic that was banned by HSA late last year. Okay enough of that, Let me share with you my journey: Actually I was pretty skeptical when i first wanting to try Han's Skin Care - firstly because I'm not really a beauty-freak person. My facial wash can be brought over the counter-top. Secondly, my face needs to use HALAL facial wash, jangan tanya kenape, i pon tk tau! Coz if i happen to use products like Nivea or Garnier(btol tak spelling nie?) I tend to have like crazy, I repeat - crazy breakout! Thirdly, makeup does the trick for me. Any blemishes can be concealed with makeup - but the question is SAMPAI BILA? Sampai bila kah aku harus menanti~ Sampai bila kah aku harus menangis~ Sampai bilakah aku harus menanti dirimu~ Sampai bilakah cinta kita begini~ Okay-okay, That song just came into my head when i typed the work Sampai bila. Who knows that song? Sampai bila by Lela. Legend peeee~ Sape yang tak tau go youtube now and try dengar, confirm tau nya lah, yang adik-adik tuh.. ermmmm not too sure lah kan. Heh. CHOPPPP! Back to the main topic. Han's Skin Care - They comes in 2 packaging:
What is so good about this Han's Skin Care? Actually the benefit banyak - but I'll list down a few of the things/changes I see on myself when i started my journey with Han's Skin Care.
AHHHHH~ BUROK NYA TAKDE MAKEUP.
LEFT - The first day when i begin my journey with Hans Skin Care.
RIGHT - Week 1 in my journey with Hans Skin Care
Okay as you can see my face on the first day was pretty horrible. You can see uneven skin tone, open pores, white head and there's like a line of black-black thing on the nose bridge (NO, NOT THE MOLE) , My dark eye circle was the most obvious one. I remember clearly when I came to work with this bare look, my colleagues and students thought I was sick. My student thought i look weird without make-up. Sedih pe dengar.
And so days passed by - on the 4th day I started having peels underneath my eyes, cheek and everywhere. It was sakit okay at first. BUT the sakit last only 2 mins when you apply the toner. The peeling macam sunburn aje.
Week 1 - Uhhhhh! See how much the skin have cleared? The dark circle underneath the eyes cleared pretty fast eh? You can see that the cheeks is slightly flushy now. The nose tkmo cakap lah, the condition really improve!
Week 2 (refering to the bigger picture) - Condition keeps on improving but I'm still having peeling around my mouth. This is because the skin around our mouth is much more thicker. So it will take a longer time to peel. During this week, I was having my menses and ZERO pimple pop up. I couldn't contain my excitement. I should also thank my seller (Ohwellitsbelle Lamode) and (Norah Fyanda) for their constant reviews on facebook and updates on how i should not panic if there's peeling. That it's okay, it's part of the whole process. That really keeps me motivated.
Week 3 (refering to the Green T-shirt) - Was taken today. What do you think. Huge difference from day 1? Uhhhh I told you that Hans Skin Care is a miracle. There isn't any makeup or powder on the face. The face was totally bare! Can see that the skin is waaaaaaaaayyyy healthier than it was previously.
I'm going to continue this going bare face till my wedding day.
STRICTLY NO MAKEUP
To all BTB - Kalau nak flawless skin, try Hans Skin Care but remember if you're allergic to Placenta please avoid this product. Hans Skin Care uses Sheep Placenta(HALAL). Jangan cakap I tak bilang ehhhh.
I'm not an agent of Han's Skin Care but I'm a user myself. I'm very much satisfied with the changes that I've seen on myself. This post is my personal review on this awesome product.
Till then!

Monday, 3 February 2014 @ 09:04A place called home - Our upcoming BTO home
Now that we are a few weeks away from the invitation date, I've been logging-in into HDB website and check out the availability status like. Alhamdulilah, so far the block and unit that we are looking at semua masih available, which hopefully it stays as it is till our selection date. Amin.
So biasa lah - I memang excited/kiasu, oh well, korang nanti dah ade rumah or apply for one, you mesti paham what I mean. You tend to check out a lot of things, including a site visit - padahal you know that place baru aje nak start korek-korek.
These are some of the 3D model available at the showroom. The painting a little bit tak cantik lah - not my kind of colour but takpe lah, every 5 years, ade orang will re-paint the whole flat mah~
My main priority when it comes to buying a flat boils down to 3 factors:
1) Is it accessible to my family members? Senang carik ke tak?
2) Is it near a shop or any amenities?
3) Will there be any school in time to come for my child, insyallah.
According to my survey, it's about 10 minutes walk to Khatib MRT station which means it's not that far. There's a bus stop right infront of the block with feder bus service - which i forsee myself NOT taking if i had to squeeze myself in between, especially during the peak period. I rather walk and burn fats, Chey! macam paham. Ade chance laki yang kena hantar. Oh sayaaaaaaannng~
Besides these 3D models, I'm kinda excited when i see the Non-optional Components that was offered. The colour macam cantik gitu - kinda suit the theme that fiance and I are going for. Macam tau aje HDB ni.
and the optional components that was offered - errrmm, okay lah not bad jugak lah the colour.
I've yet to do calculation which fiance on the payment breakdown. Eversince we're engaged, our weekends are spent by talking about the wedding preparation and the BTO house appointment. The Dos and Dont's.
Debating whether I should be working after getting pregnant, insyallah. Ikut kan hati sape nak keje oi, tapi kalau tak keje, macam mane nak bayar rumah kan?
So BTB yang dah apply rumah, how is your preparation like? Ade anyone of you also applying in Yishun?
Our plan after the wedding is that we will be leaving with my parents for about a year or so before we move out to our own place. My parents, as usual, lagi lah suke since he is around. My currently bedroom will prolly be the size of my masterbed room in my own home. I will kinda get use to the idea that somehow, someday I will have to leave this spacious house of mine and live in a tiny winy pigeon-hole like flats. As simple as my current house (belongs to the parents lah kan) square feet is bigger than the 3 Generation flat that the government tgh sebok popularkan. Seriously? But on the other hand, I'm thankful that insyallah someday I will have a roof over my head, my own. Till then.

Sunday, 19 January 2014 @ 17:30Wedding Fever: And so we've settled our bridal and catering
Be prepared for a very long and detailed post on this two company:
Let's start off with the big big one - Catering. My big day (insyallah) - will be a one day event thing. My fiance and I will be having our majlis together because we do not want to overspend and I think it's better coz' his friends are my friends too and my friends are his friends too. So why nak buat lain-lain kan? The event will be on a Saturday - Why Saturday, because we want that one day gap to rest well and prolly who knows we might fly off for our honeymoon the next day (still considering that, thou) We took the exclusive package which is $25,600 for 1600 pax. Lek lek, takmo terkejot. Let me do a proper breakdown for you. You see if you were to take for 1000 pax they will charge you at $20.00 per head. But if you were to take for 1600 pax it will be $16.00 per head. Do you math! You'll save a lot of money - Keep in mind that this is a combined wedding thus the chances are people will be flooding your wedding and food will run out pretty fast. It's rather a be safe than sorry kind of situation. In this exclusive package you will get the following menu:
They throw in lots of free gifts too!
worth it right?! You know why i say worth it - tentage and gazebo is given FOC. Do you know that a small tentage can cost SGD1,500 per day? Kad jemputan is FREE too! Berkat is FREE too! Calculate how much will you be saving from travelling to JB and chances are being caught by customs officer coz' not declaring goods. You'll be charged GST - in Singapore dollars lagi!
Desserts that they will give you in this exclusive package:
So this is how the dessert station will look like roughly:
Fruit station will also be included
Drink station (this is my favourite!)
Breakfast Menu (Saturday Morning)
Friday Night Menu - so friends who can't make it on saturday can come on the night before!
Wedding Decoration
Catering Logistic
Kitchen Logistic
ALL THIS FOR $25,600 ONLY!
Next up is the bridal - Grandeur Fai by G5 Events Pte Ltd
This is prolly the coolest thing ever - They provide you a wedding planner once you sign up. A deposit is required to block off the dates and they are very flexible in terms of payment when you wanna do installment plan basis. You can easily transfer the cash to the company account and staple the receipt to your wedding planner (they have a page where you can do that). In the wedding planner there's terms and condition that you need to read through and sign.
A few pages later they have this page where you can plan your event out properly. you breakdown - the fitting dates etc etc! Best part about Grandeur Fai is you are given to do fitting 7 times! 7 times! Last fitting is a month before you wedding and after that no more changing. No extra charges for new collection - how awesome is that!!
How i wish i can post a photo of the planner (inside) - but i understand that only G5 have this wedding planner thingy and takut-takut later other bridal copy lah plak.
Anyway the package that I took is 'Queen'. In this package they offer the following things:
Since Grandeur Fai prices varies in terms of the promotion that they are offering - Do check with them the current rates etc. Do come down during their Expo exhibition or Private in house exhibition to get $500 off your bridal packages.
For the package above and after discounts -
$2418 ONLY!!!
So basically i'm left with my photographer and wedding photo booth which i will update next week.
With detailed breakdown and the total cost of my wedding.
Dear brides-to-be - it is very important that you start booking early because it will make you be very discipline in your savings and grab the best deals. Biar kiasu, janji we don't screw up our big day.
Till then!
