Singapore Week 1!

It has been fantastic in Singapore so far, the country is absolutely amazing! We spent the first day at Orchard Rd, the famous shopping district in Singapore. To see so many shopping centres at one time it looks like Sydney's Westfields repeated ten times across each street. A lot of the stores tend to be high end, such as Prada and Louis Vuitton. We were absolutely excited to see H&M, Uniqlo and Sephora in Singapore! We don't have the stores in Sydney at the moment, so it was a fantastic change.



IMPRESSION: Sephora Singapore?
Surprisingly not as much of a bargain hunting store, the prices are similar to Sydney. The only difference would probably be a few dollars cheaper due to the exchange rate. Although we still managed to grab a bunch of products!

IMPRESSION: Watsons Singapore?
There's more variety in terms of beauty brands in comparison to Watsons in Hong Kong and China. Not only do they stock the usual drugstore brands (Garnier, Maybelline), they also have KATE, Canmake and so much more. It is evident that they keep up to date with the beauty trends by stocking the Cure Natural Aqua Gel (which seems to be difficult to find everywhere else). The best Watsons we went to was probably the one in Takashimaya. 


Below are some of the places we've been to so far!

Travel Beauty Essentials


It seems we have chosen extremely humid places to visit on our travel journey. This sticky humid weather is all worth it though, there is nothing I love more than summer and sunshine beaming into my room. So right now we're in Singapore and enjoying the air-con at our hotel room. We cannot wait to share with you our (hopefully) successful hauls and the fun we will have!

Our late dinner last night at the Hotel

After coming back from Gold Coast, we packed similar skincare and makeup to Singapore.

Make up I have brought along include:

  • Sportsgirl Protect Me Sunscreen
  • Garnier Miracle Skin Perfector
  • MAC Concealer in NC25
  • MAC Studio Fix Plus Foundation
  • Bobbi Brown Pastel Eye Shadow Palette
  • Lancome Hypnose Waterproof Mascara
  • Dollywink Eyeliner 
  • Missha Shimmering Ball Blusher
  • Make Up Eyelash 02 Elegant False Eyelashes
  • Sigma Brush Set 
Makeup

I packed along the basics at the moment, as I know we will be able to buy make up from our local Watsons if needed. Brought along the Bobbi Brown Pastel Eye Shadow Palette instead of the Naked Palette, due to it's size and brighter range of colour. I have been using the colour at the end as a highlighter. If we do decide to explore Singapore's night life, this palette would be easily use for a brown smokey eye and then I can add on my false lashes! 

Skincare products:
  • Haruhada's Hyaluronic Acid to remove makeup
  • Garnier Pure 3 in 1 Cleanser
  • Cucumber Toner
  • My Beauty Diary Shining & Moisturising Sleeping Mask (to hydrate the skin at night!)
  • Pond's Flawless White with SPF 15 (as a day moisturiser)
Skincare
So we will be in Singapore for 5 days! We are heading to the famous shopping road, Orchard Rd. Fingers crossed our wallets won't be emptied out today.
