Oh how I love fancy headbands
Gloria Cube Headband by Scott Stephen
My first buy from Scanlan & Theodore and I’m pretty sure I’ll be paying more visits there now :p
Scott Stephen is a Scottish designer and did couture fabric for Gaultier and Dior. He has also collaborated with FrostFrench(fashion label by Sadie Frost, Jude Law’s ex wife), Swarowski and Collette Dinnigan(Australian fashion designer).
The Salesgirl from Scanlan and Theodore did mentioned that Scott Stephen is one of the top milliner/headwear designer in UK and made hats for Princess Diana and Elton John.

My Skin Food parcel all the way from Anyang, South Korea.
Since there’s no Skin Food here, I’ve got to rely on Ebay. Zinopark’s a great seller, and I like how it comes with so many freebies!!
I’m not particularly a fan of skin care products but ever since my mom introduced me this product line, I’ve been liking it…alot!
I have combination skin, which makes it a lil’ harder to find suitable products that will work on my skin. I usually have issues with facial washes where I’ll either get red blotches or it itches.
Skin Food’s logo – The guardian angel that represents purity in the products and to guard our skin. The appealing factor about Skin Food is the use of natural ingredients and also how they package their product lines using the original form of the ingredients – Peach Sake, Cucumber and Lettuce, Carrot, Eggplant, Rice, Caviar, Aloe Vera, Salmon, Banana etc…
The Aloe Vera product line contains aloe and cucumber extract to soothes and moisturize sensitive skin. I like the fact that the mask only needs to be applied for 5 minutes and then rinse off.
Peppermint Pore Diet Peel-Off Mask and Salmon Brightening Eye Cream
The Peppermint mask contains peppermint and orchid extracts which helps minimize pores and moisturizes the skin. The peel-off gently removes dead skin and controls sebum. I’m most curious with the Salmon product line. I was contemplating between the eye cream or the eye mask as they focus on reducing dark circles. I hope it works as I seriously need some help with my eye bags..ugh
Besides Skin Food, I ordered some products from Etude House as well.
Sweet Appleade Body Wash
Apple is one of my favourite scent besides jasmine.. or green tea.. or peony….or magnolia..
The “concept” of this body was is Sweet and Tart fragrance of juicy green apples.. haha, we’ll see about that
Hand Bouquet Rich Butter Foot Mask
With the amount of torture I put on my feet, I should at least pamper them once in awhile 😛
This mask contains shea butter and olive extracts that will moisturize my dry footsies.
And now the freebies!!!!
Omija Product Line
Omija Whitening Emulsion and Toner. I assume its for whitening then.
Gold Caviar Product Line
Gold Caviar Nutrition Mask, Toner and Emulsion. It’s for wrinkle care using gold and caviar ingredients @_@
