20 facts about me


Because I am way too bored at home on a Saturday afternoon.

1) I'm an introvert. Yes even though i may not look like one. Really am just a quiet and shy person deep inside. I love silence so much i can just sit beside a bestfriend all day keeping quiet. Well unless i am very close with you, i rarely open up.

2) I love to sleep! ever since i was little, sleeping was my hobby.

3) I like to drink yakult without a straw.

4) Can't live with chocolates. Favourite has got to be Reese's peanut butter cup.

5) I have interest in fashion design but i suck at drawing.

6) I'm a middle child. The occasionally awkward kind.

7) Love reading and studying i wish i could do that my entire life.

8) I'm a tea person. Green tea especially^^

9) As a taurus, i think i am really stubborn? And i am always right! Sorry to come off a little arrogant or something, but i really am always right!

10) I secretly likes guys in suit. A brown oxford is a bonus! Geez so sexy~

11) I'm a saver not a spender. Though i may spend alot at times, I do make sure i save first before i spend.

12) I like it when people pronounce my name correctly. But that is really rare! Katherine with a TH not katchurine or something. -.-

13) I was a yes girl back in poly days. I never say no when people asked me out. Which makes me pretty popular among friends but really tiring at the same time. #yolo

14) I DO NOT EAT VEGGIES. Okay maybe broccoli and cauliflower. But i really dislike bitter leafy greens.

15) I have a dream to spend the other half of my life in a cosy bar everyday with my friends.

16) HATE LIZARDS. MY BIGGEST ENERMY.

17) I am attracted to people who are intelligent. Those who can give me knowledge everyday...like do you know lizards can live up to 10 years kind of interesting facts.

18) I have really weak lungs :(

19) I'm a believer of the secret. Still trying my best to practice gratitude everyday.

20) I am a social media addict.


WEEE ALL DONE! That wasn't as hard as it seems :))))

Updated Skincare Routine

Here's an update on my current day and night skincare routine.

I used to always get some tiny pimples all year round especially during the week before my period comes. But now, it has cleared up alot and i mostly only get 1 or 2 during the 'peak' period.

So i guess this is the formula that really works for my skin :)

Day:
Cleanse: Organic Oatmeal (Doesn't matter if its organic or not, oatmeal is really great for sensitive skin. Plus, it's extremely affordable!)
Tone: Avene Thermal Spring Water.
Moisturise: Nature Republic Aloe Vera Gel (not very moisturizing which is great for day use because our face usually gets oily after a long day at work!)
Sun protection: Neutrogena Ultra sheer dry touch sunblock in SPF 50 (Best sunscreen ever!)

I would usually keep my day routine short and sweet as i would be putting on some make up and i do want my skin to feel very light weight and less burdened.


Night:
Remove your make up first!
Cleanse: Hada labo cleanser
Tone: Avene Thermal Spring Water with a cotton pad to remove excess makeup left on your skin.
Serum: Loreal Youth code boosting essence (I SWEAR BY THIS PRODUCT!) and bliv off with those head on my nose
Moisturise: Snail street cream.

Again, i don't have a super duper 12 steps skincare routine but this is what works for me. Haven't found a suitable eye cream yet so i don't put on any for now :)

Most important thing is to massage your face when you put on your essence and moisturisers so that it will be absorbed into your skin. Otherwise, all your work and products will go to waste!
