Altas Venture, the company who set up my last coloring using Eva Professional Hair Color Series, also distributes the Artego range that comprises mostly natural botanical extracts to treat hair and scalp problems. They arranged for me to try their new Extracto Care Oily Hair products at Cyrenena, a hair salon located at Tampines which specializes in scalp treatment.
Can tinted sunscreens replace foundations?

I’ve never tried a tinted sunscreen until recently when I tested the sample from Marie-Veronique Organics and I’m hooked!

Going forward, I’m definitely going to order the tinted version of this sunscreen as it only cost a dollar more.

But honestly, I wouldn’t have known about it had the shop owner, Coral, not sent me an email inviting me to visit her shop as the location isn’t exactly central.
Prescriptives Well-Suited Fall Color Collection
Look what came in my mail this week all the way from the States! It’s the new Well-Suited, Prescriptives Fall 2009 Color Collection just launched this month! I vaguely recalled the PR folks at Prescriptives asking for my address awhile back but no one had informed me to expect anything. So this was really a pleasant surprise, especially because the packaging is so appealing!
