My lips rarely crack.. But I love to apply lipgloss.. Seductive lips πŸ˜†

Have you tried Clinique's Full Potential Lips Plump and Shine ? Amazing !! Makes your lips look so full & glossy, with a tinge of colour.. You will love it since you like lip gloss.. I have the travel-size pack (10 colours) which was bought on board SQ.. They should come in regular sizes too, but I like the small ones coz have more colours to play with.. :love:

Oops.. Must change thread title to Beauty Tips.. :oops: πŸ˜‰

Thanks.. I will take a look if I happen to pop by Clinique.

Don't forget your lips ladies. Use an SPF lipstick.

Any SPF lipgloss to intro? I do not use lipstick.

Any major brands will have it, you can walk around the counters and see what you prefer or go into Sephora. So far only Clinique doesn't crack my lips but I will try Laneige next.[/quote]My lips rarely crack.. But I love to apply lipgloss.. Seductive lips πŸ˜†

Han Seo:
Is whitening cream safe?

Whitening cream is considered safe if only it is paraben free, lead free and mercury free. Products that contain paraben can cause cancer. A google search can be done to find out more about paraben and paraben free whitening cream.

How to prevent/reduce age spots on arms?


Sometimes I see older ladies have great face skin but their arms look really old (wrinkled and have age spots). I had age spots on my face but I have lasered them so my face is ok. However, I can see my arms are aging. The number of age spots are increasing... 😞

What is the skincare regime for arms?

May i have the doc and clinic name?

PMed you.

[quote=\"peapot\"]I think Fann Wong has the best skin. I heard besides sunblock and popping pills she also carry umbrella and avoid the sun at all costs!


I just wonder how practical is that. Filming can avoid sun?? Or her assistant carry the umbrella while she film ??? Or maybe she is born so very fair.

Umbrella is indeed the best sun defence unless there are reflective surfaces around. πŸ˜‚ the lights used for filming are very harsh and will tan the skin.

I used to also think it is impractical. But now that age is catching up, I will also brandish my umbrella. :rahrah:

[quote=\"ammonite\"]Ah? No lah,I don't really differentiate. Water resistant ones are for swimming lor, LOL.


Peapot is talking about oral supplements, not lotions. These are supposed to help protect the skin against sun damage, but they are not replacements for sunscreen/block.

This is the regime of a model that I personally know:
- oral supplement (for sun damage and collagen)
- sunblock from head to toe
- monthly ipl
- don't forget to moisturise from head to toe!

Hair is another story.

Thanks, :oops:
Blur me.

I have been advised by doc not to use sunscreen as I am vitD deficient. I try and get 15 mins of direct noon sun . :faint: I apply sunscreen on face only when going out in hot sun or when swimming.

Vit D deficiency?? That is very rare in the tropics! If you don't mind me asking, how did you find out?[/quote]Err long story.My dad is the unofficial health consultant of the extended family. He reads latest health publications and makes our lives miserable. He suspected and told me to get tested. The doc wanted to know why I wanted to throw good money, vitD defficiency is more a \"cold\" place issue, I did not look like there was any prob, But my dad is one persistent man. So I took the test and was shocked to be in the \"deficient \" level. That is below the insufficient level. Now on supps.

Now my dad's latest fad is the alkaline diet. Dry fruits, organic stuff :moneyflies:

Hair also has their own sunscreen and anti aging shampoo etc etc.... Really can't follow all these steps. I won't be able to leave for work on time.

Beauty comes at a cost, the older the more expensive mah. If you have lovely skin now, you have to start protecting it now. It will all be worth it when you hit your forties.

(plus looking good is a model's job. It is her rice bowl leh. Anyway now she snagged a rich hubby and is chauffeured around. No need to worry about the sun. )
