    Bella's Love #5 - my Bod!



    (the bod)

    Up next for Bella's Love #5 will be some products from bod! If you haven't heard of this brand from Australia yet, here's the time to start knowing about it! Cos' it's totally awesome!

    I actually came to know about this product during my visit at the Cozycot Holy Grail Party 2009 which I mentioned not long ago. Bought both the eye serum and the facial exfoliant back then...and after some weeks of trying, I just had to include them in my Bella's Love list!

    First to come will be the Certified Organic Anti-aging eye serum! One thing about products from bod is that they contain essential oils in them, and thus, it really has a very nice scent and helps to calm our skin as well! And this eye serum that I bought, is really value-for-$ in my view given its size, @ only SGD68! The size of the bottle is considered quite big as compared to the usual small packaging of most eye cream/serum sold outside!


    After using quite a few brands of eye care, I have to say this is gonna stick with me for quite sometime, cos it really comforts my eye! It's light in texture, and its kakadu plum content really cares for my eye area! The neroli essential oil also helps my tired eyes to relax and reduce the tired lines! I'm totally loving it soooo much! If you haven't found a eye serum you love, I hope you will love this as much as I do! =)





    Next up will be the really gentle facial exfoliant from bod as well!And the main scent for this exfoliant will be the sandalwood aroma! I totally enjoy every single session of my facial exfoliation now!

    Priced at SGD34, I initially find it a little highly priced given it's rather small size (60g), but after using it, I would say, it's worth it! Cos' this exfoliant is really calming and gentle to my skin. This is perhaps also due to my personal addiction to essential oil products though =p


    And this sums up Bella's Love #5 for now! Hope you love these products too!!

    *Cheers*

    My weekend with April AGAIN!!=p



    (Day starting with Dar & me @ Bus-stop near his house~*have a nice day to each other*)

    Met up with April last Saturday (3rd Oct 2009) again to go look for some stuff for her upcoming wedding dinner!

    We set off really early that day at around 11am, which is like a record time for me cos' most of the time I would still be in the bed during weekends during that timing! Dar had a wedding lunch to attend that day, so April came to pick me up early so we can have breakfast together! I had a super nice breakfast at Serangoon Circus hawker...uber nice Kway Chap there!!! I'm so going back for it! hee...=p

    And it gets really unbelieveable whenever we go shopping together cos' once we start, we can go on walking for 5 straight hours and skipping even our lunch! But time was not all wasted cos we did manage to find something! heh heh...

    But after 5 straight hours of shopping, we suddenly stopped and realised how hungry we were, so we ended at Wheelock Place Sakae Sushi eating quite a feast!



    (starving us waiting for our food!!)



    (FOOD!!!)




    (Our lunch + dinner!!! Love the spicy ramen!)

    And after dinner, April and I kept saying we wanna go off already...but end up we kept stopping by almost every single shop we pass by to go in to see more stuff! hahax...That's just so typical when we both get together! So...God bless to our pockets for our upcoming Bangkok trip together!!hahax...

    And Oh mi Gosh!! My beloved April's wedding is this coming Thursday (15 Oct 2009)!!!I'm soooooo excited for her!! She shall be the prettiest bride~ *Love her loads!* Shall update again really soon!! Huhoo~

    Bella's Love #4 - Mountainroseherbs!!!



    (All from Mountainroseherbs!!!)

    Next up for Bella's Love shall be something for our general health and skin-related products! In fact, Bella's recent addiction comes from products from Mountainroseherbs!! And here are my recent favs which I know I have to share with u all!

    1) Essential Oils!
    Ever felt like u're so stressed out and u feel so tensed up? Insomnia, sinus etc...you name it and unfortunately, I guess I can sympathise with u somehow because I've had some experiences with those. But recently, I'm starting to stock up my essential oil range to resume my somewhat lost-aromatherapy to cheer my days! Here're a few I bought!

    - Vetiver (great to bring u into your dreamland!)
    - Eucalyptus (Suits my Sinus problem~)
    - Tea Tree (Nice for acne problem and my frequent colds)

    Thing I love about the essential oils from Mountainroseherbs? They're mostly 100% organic!!

    2) Women's Balancing Blend (Herbal Tea)



    It's name says it all! Just for ladies! I've personally tried this herbal tea and it's actually nice! It has a bit of minty feel and gives a refreshing aftertaste! It's gonna be my next tea love! =) *Psst...I'm not the only one in love with this..now my mum totally rave about it too!! ;)*

    3) Anti-Itch Spray

    If you're like me, with a sUuppperly sensitive skin which tends to itch like crazy at times, you're so gonna love my 3rd recommendation - the Anti-itch Spray! It works almost instantly!!!Even mopiko and medicated oil can't fight my itch as fast as this! Now this stays with me wherever I go~








    4) Bug-Out Repellent

    Going outdoor but you're constantly stung by all sorts of insects? I guess this solves it all! Bella is someone who hates bugs and any flying insects! And this has become my love now for my outdoor activities or even to night markets overseas! It last 2-4 hrs after each spray! I wouldn't know how to not have this with me! *grinz*







    So as usual, Bella doesn't get any advertising fees from Mountainroseherbs but I just thought since these products has done wonders for me...I should share it here! Hope you guys love it too! Oh and should you be interested but feels that the shipping is too expensive, feel free to drop me an email @ route2beauty@gmail.com and we'll see if we can share the shipping fees together! heex...*cheerios*
