Busy days, back-to-back classes, motherhood, work. sometimes you just need something quick that still supports your body 💛

Loving how easy this is to fit into my routine because it’s high protein, low sugar, and perfect for on-the-go days when I barely have time to sit down 😅

Not every day is perfectly balanced, but small habits help ✨

Postpartum hair changes really 🥲

Suddenly noticing more shedding, weaker strands and a scalp that just didn’t feel healthy anymore, I panicked.

I’m currently 6 weeks into Svenson’s 12 Weeks Hair Revival Programme and what I appreciate is that it’s not positioned as a quick fix. It’s a full hair & scalp reset focusing on treatments, scalp care, nutrition and healthier hair habits overall.

The biggest surprise so far? The baby hairs coming in around my hairline since Week 4 😭🌱

Also genuinely enjoy the sessions because it feels like a proper self-care break from work + mum life.

Still halfway through the journey, but excited to share my final results by Week 12 ✨

Motherhood means… if it’s not simple, it’s not happening 😅

This has been my go-to: Sensibio Micellar Cleansing Oil.
One step to melt off makeup, sunscreen, blackheads and the whole day with no fuss, no double cleansing needed.

Super gentle and keeps my skin soothed and nourished!

You know that feeling when your body is exhausted but your mind still can’t slow down?

I recently tried the ALQVIMIA Meridian Ritual, a luxury Spanish aromatherapy experience combined with TCM meridian techniques and it felt like a full nervous system reset.

What makes it different is that the oils aren’t just for fragrance. They’re formulated with 100% natural essential oils designed to support specific emotional + physical states through both inhalation and skin absorption.

There are 3 rituals depending on what your body needs most:

🧡 Pure Release → for fatigue & tension
🤍 Pure Calm → for stress & emotional overwhelm
💜 Pure Sleep → for restless sleep & insomnia

The treatment starts with the historic Queen of Hungary Water applied along the spine before the oils are layered in which is honestly one of the most unique wellness experiences I’ve tried.

✨ Intro Trial: $98 before GST
⏱ 45 minutes

Available at selected outlets:
📍Yong Kang TCM — Ang Mo Kio, Suntec City, Anchorpoint
📍Refresh TCM Wellness — Plaza Singapura, Holland Village, Sun Plaza

Save this for the next time your body feels like it’s running on empty.

Motherhood unlocked personalities I never knew I had 😂💗

Some days I’m:
🎀 soft pink & patient
❤️ overstimulated but cute
🍑 running on coffee and confidence
🤎 calm on the outside, chaos internally

So honestly… this Banila Co Romantic Blush Lip & Cheek set feels VERY appropriate HAHAHA.

10 shades = 10 moods depending on:
✔ how much sleep I got
✔ whether my baby ate
✔ whether someone touched my skincare
✔ and how delusional I’m feeling that day

What I love most is how buildable and easy the formula is! Sheer and soft when blended, but you can also layer it for a more vivid look without it getting cakey 👏🏻 Plus it works for BOTH lips and cheeks which makes getting ready so much faster.

My personal favourites are definitely the warm tones:
12 Peach Mousse
13 Cream Coral
14 Bouncing
17 Baby Bean
18 Chill Teddy

I feel like they brighten my complexion the most and give that healthy warm flush ✨

Some combos I’ve been loving:
🍑 Soft Peachy K-Idol:
18 Chill Teddy (lips)
17 Baby Bean + 14 Bouncing (cheeks)
12 Peach Mousse (eyes)

☁️ Clean Girl Aesthetic (Sleep Deprived version):

🎀 Main Character Grocery Run:
