December 16, 2013
Here we stand, nearing the closure of another chapter in our lives. As we approach the end of the year, keep in mind and heart those who stayed by our side through good and bad, who showered us with endless love and care. Open up our hearts and forgive those who hurt us and caused us pain. December is the month to give thanks, to remember all the wonderful people who crossed our path and things that happened in our lives.
Christmas came early for me. Company's Christmas dinner was held earlier this month at Oscar's (Conrad Centennial Singapore), the buffet was a spread and definitely one of the best few hotel buffet I ever had. Beside the usual dessert corner, a Christmas dessert corner consisting of different Christmas log cakes was set up. Not only do they look amazing, they taste yummy as well! A great place to visit, if you are planning for a Christmas dinner with your love ones.
When it comes to Christmas, many will carry out the western Christmas tradition - Secret Santa. I for one, love participating in the event. I enjoy doing Christmas shopping, guessing who my secret Santa is and most importantly, I love wrapping up gifts. Thankfully, shopping gifts for girls can be pretty easy. Compared to guys, we truly have A LOT more variety to choose from -
(1). Body-care products - Girls are known to be suckers for adorable items and we love to keep our skin refresh and smelling good all the time. The Body Shop has always been one of my favourite place to purchase body lotion/butter. From sweet to floral and musky, they have different scents of fragrance that are bound to capture your heart. Dirty Works's products and My Beauty Diary's facial masks are my favourite buys too! Dirty Works's ocean blue, polka dots and retro packaging caught my attention few years back. I don't suppose they have a store in Singapore, but the products can be easily found at Sasa outlets. Another place to get nice fragrance/body lotion would be at Victoria Secret, no women will reject any gift from that sexy shop ;)
(2). Cosmetics - It is no doubt that majority girls spend a great deal of money and time on their appearance to look good, which is why cosmetics can be one of the safest gift a guy could buy for his girlfriend. Urban Decay Naked 3 palette has recently been released and can be purchased conveniently at Sephora outlets. Ranging from pale, shimmery pink to deep black matte with rosy red micro-glitter , this is a daily, multiple usage palette a girl should own. Other than this popular product, Sephora offers a wide range of cosmetic brands and interesting products that would make any girl go gaga over.
