My New Me

My last Friday night was spent thinking of my own shopping list. It actually hit me when I looked at my open cabinet and my toiletries. It was just then that I came to realize that I only had a few vain essentials. Yep, a few to put on my face and things that I use for hygienic purposes.

Well, I am happy to announce that little by little, somehow, I am beginning to fit all the pieces together. The entire ensemble is not complete though. I must say that my baby steps progress are quite remarkable - from nothing to a few must haves that can be recommended to friends. My hunt for hygiene essentials is on!


I am not getting any younger. No matter how much denial face and the "I-am-so-young-face" I make every time I look myself in the mirror, that pesky gravity just justifies that everything is meant to age. That said, it made me think on how I can delay the aging process. I am 25 years old already. And I read from some magazine that this age is the birth of wrinkles! Damn, I am only beginning to explore my life and they would say that mean thing to me. I barely even exercised my right to get laid!

So having this said, I need to counter skin-aging. So I went to this Body Shop outlet in Toa Payoh, Singapore to look around. Funny enough, they have all different and new range of products. This was the second time that I got confused since my sexuality question mark! Haha.

From head to toe, they all have it. All new, all packaged nicely and with all different scents. Good thing there was a sales assistant to explain everything that I touched. Guys, spare me the question. I do frequent shops like this, but I didn't just have the interest to buy them before as I thought these were just fabricated by cosmetic companies to rob from ignorant, self-centered and egoistic people like Jennifer Lopez.

Bull Shit. I think I will be part of that ignorant population that patronizes skin products. Yeah, somehow and for some reason I need it. I can't have my skin taken for granted. It was just now that I need more than that Vitamin E Eye Cream that I bought from them a month and a half ago. I need to moisturize, too. A healthy skin is a moisturized skin. And get a lotion to revitalize that glow in me. Gees, how pathetic. I am talking about a glowing skin now. (winks, winks)

So I ended up being ripped, $50+ less than my credit limit for buying the Vitamin E Moisturizer and the lotion. Good thing I liked the effects of Body Shop's Vitamin E Eye Cream I am willing to try the entire line of Vitamin E products they have. Well, not maybe entirely now but soon. If I find the effects really working, I will start recommending them. And who knows, I might be their spokesperson or their Ambassador just like Halle Berry to Revlon and Christina Aguilera for MAC. (hihihi)


So to BODY SHOP, please contact me. I need a sponsor. I need supplies. Email or drop me a message. Or something.
