BRANDS InnerShine : Marine Collagen Essence Strip

Sponsored Advertorial

Helloooooooo!


I believe many of you girls out there love to make up so that you look pretty right?
But do you know what is the most important factor in a girl/guy to look attractive?

The Skin.


Photobucket


See the difference?
Everything in the picture is the same except the complexion of the skin!
(Sorry I spelt complexion wrongly in the photo, it's 3am+ when I'm editing photos, lol!)

I purposely photoshopped the left photo to have the "pimple scars even under concealer" look!
And yes, even the best concealer can't help you cover your pimple scars sometimes!!
(I don't know how to create wrinkles in photoshop -.-)


But anyway you get the point.

Complexion of a skin.

I personally HATE to use foundations because I feel very stuffy in it.
Unless for events where I'm working in (that'll have mass photo bombs by photogs),
I usually go out without make up, or with light eye make up + concealer only.


And this is how I look like with light eye make up + concealer only.

Photobucket

Everyone loves & wants smooth fair radiant skin without wrinkles or pimples scars!
But of course, not all of you would have the time to put facial masks/skin care everyday!


So I'm introducing you guys/girls a brand new product by BRANDS InnerShine!

Marine Collagen Essence Strip

Photobucket


What is Collagen?

Collagen is actually a fiber in the connective tissue throughout our whole body!
But people usually notice the face only though.

And do you know that our skin begins to drop at an annual rate of 1.5% once we reach adulthood?
With addition of our working stress, polluted air, alcohol, smoking, late sleeping etc. increases the speed of getting old skin!! Also known as ageing skin!!

(imagines self having wrinkles everywhere .__.)



Why must we Replenish/Restore Collagen? 

For a simple reason, it actually helps to maintain our skin suppleness & elasticity!!
That's why many people buy Collagen facial products/ skincare products.

(Even my facial foam is collagen based!)


Photobucket

What does this product do?

This Marine Collagen Essence Strip actually contains deep sea fish-derived collagen with Niacinamide (form of Vit. B3 that provides skin cells energy for growth & repair) & Vit. E (antioxidant that protects the skin from photo-aging effects)!


Photobucket

10 strips/box!!


Photobucket

Look at it's pretty pinkish packaging!!

This was designed to be plush, potent and portable!!
Each strip contains only 12kcal & weighs around 10g?

It's really convenient to just put a few in your handbag and nom on some on
 the way out or during snack time!


Photobucket

There's Kyoho grape juice contains to make this whole strip taste yummy! :)

And no. It does not have any fish taste at all!
(Some are worried due to the "marine"-"fish-derived-collagen")

And it taste a little like Qoo white grape!!
Really sweet tasting and it tastes just like a jelly!


Photobucket

Here's me nomming my Collagen Essence Strip! :)


Photobucket

Super love this creation by BRANDS!!
They never fail to come out with smart ideas to improve healthcare!


Photobucket

Yes, I DO put them in my bags as I suggested!


Photobucket

GO GET YOUR BOX NOW :)


&
STAY YOUNG & PRETTY LOOKING PEOPLE!

The bun had a little tiny sweet taste along with it, and the cheese + egg made the whole burger perfect!

The Milk shake was one of the best I've tried in Sg.
(Best was at Billy Bombers)

And today I'm back to introduce this Italian fusion restaurant!



BISTROQUET
460 Alexandra Road #02-20 
ARC @ PSA Building S(119963) 



And I believe many of you would be wondering, 
WHERE ON EARTH IS THIS PLACE?!?!!

Hahahaha, if you think Singapore's very small & you've been to everywhere already.
This is one place I believe many of you haven't been to!!
This shopping mall, ARC, is located right next to the PSA building.

Nearest MRT station: Labrador Park (Circle Line)


So now that you know the place, I shall show you a preview of the restaurant itself! :)

So this is a just nice but yet very tasty dish!!



Photobucket

And last but not least, DESSERTS.
What's a proper meal without desserts right?
