Style a new Look Easily

For most women, it is necessary to update their looks by changing their hairstyle according to the season and occasion. I for one am guilty with that. In this photo I am wearing some hair extensions to make me look all glammed up.


For me, Wigs are also an excellent choice for various hairstyles. They can be dyed, bleached, and permed, and can last a long time and look natural. Most people tend to wear human hair wigs. For example, human hair lace front wig and full lace human hair wig. It also comes in various of wave styles, such as body wave hair wig, straight wig, deep wave wig and so on.

A wig is actually an investment. The correct hair care procedure can make your wig last longer and ensure that your wig maintains its silky or wavy shape. In order to maintain its natural shape, here are some professional hair knowledge on how to care for human wigs.

1.How to wash human hair at home?

Pre-wash: Before you wash your wig, please slowly wash away the tangles on the hair product. Then use soft shampoo specially formulated for chemically treated hair. After the hair is completely wet, use some shampoo. And spread the shampoo evenly over the entire hair by using your fingers.


Wash and comb: Rinse hair under warm water. Slowly pour the shampoo into the hair and stroke it from top to bottom. Do not twist, scrub, or rub the hair. After getting wet, comb your hair gently to remove tangles. Using a large tooth comb, away from the clamp and to the hair end. Pls remember avoiding using a stiff brush on damp hair because it may pull or break the hair.

Rinse: Rinse 100% human hair wigs in gentle cold water until there is no shampoo or foam. Make sure that the water flows from the cap to the hair end. Use a towel to gently soak up excess water.

Conditioning: Use some conditioner and spread it evenly over the entire hair with your fingers. Using conditioner on the base may cause it to fall off. Using conditioner on the base may cause it to fall off. Turn on the air conditioner for 1-2 minutes, do not exceed 3-5 minutes. Hang the wig outside then make it air dry, put in a drum, or use a hair dryer at a lower temperature as needed. The human hair wig does not need to wash as frequently as your own mink hair vendors only wash them when they look insipid and lifeless.

Styling: To straighten the hair, take a 2-inch part from the root, and curl the hair with a flat iron at both ends. Wrap the hair around the curling iron and hold for 10 seconds and then loosen it. If necessary, hairspray products can be used on the final hairstyle.

Bedtime care: Put your wig in a large high ponytail and wear a sleeping cap Before you going to bed. Cause the pure cotton sheets can really mess up and dry your hair. Wear a headscarf before going to bed will make your wig looks great every morning and I even save styling time. 


So now that we have covered our crowning glory, it's time to dress-up in style.

The Right Care

More than 2 years have passed and the Covid Pandemic remains to be the biggest threat to human existence. We rely on vaccines and protective gears such as disposable masks and gloves to ensure that we keep ourselves protected from the deadly virus. 


For masks we are already wearing it as daily protection. For gloves, for educational purposes of some readers of mine who might not know, there are several types of disposable gloves in the market today and it can be quite challenging to decide which is best to use especially if we have no medical knowledge. Some of the most common types of gloves are actually made from nitrile and latex, which are used in a range of industries including that of the medical and chemical industry.

So what's the difference between the two?

Latex and nitrile disposable gloves are available in different thicknesses and can be bought powdered and non-powdered and non-sterile and sterile. Latex gloves are made from natural rubber whereas nitrile gloves are made from a synthetic rubber. 

What should I look for when buying gloves?

It's always important to choose the highest quality when buying disposable gloves and ensuring that no damage has occurred to your gloves in transit or production. This is especially important if the gloves are to be worn as a protective barrier against blood-borne pathogens or hazardous chemicals.

Gloves need to feel comfortable and give a good fit. The great thing about Disposable Latex Gloves is that they fit the user's hand very well and have high elasticity. Nitrile gloves can vary in comfort and flexibility and it really is worth spending a little more on the softer and more flexible types. 


One problem that latex gloves do have with some people is an allergic reaction. If members of your workforce are allergic to latex, they must be supplied with latex-free alternatives. Nitrile or powder-free latex gloves are usually a good alternative and will ensure your workforce can carry on with their tasks in total comfort.

Another issue to consider when choosing disposable gloves is finger dexterity - that is how easy it is for the hand and fingers to move when wearing the gloves. In tests, nitrile and latex gloves have scored equally as well although nitrile gloves are usually more resistant to puncture damage from needles and other sharp instruments. Another advantage is that unlike latex, nitrile gloves split when damaged alerting the wearer immediately.

Price vs Safety

The price point is another concern for those wanting to purchase disposable gloves. Latex gloves are usually more affordable than nitrile, but it does depend on the type of gloves you buy and where you buy them from. Should you purchase the cheaper gloves because they are more affordable and you need them in high volumes? Or should you purchase the slightly more expensive and more resilient nitrile gloves?

Safety is an obvious concern when purchasing Nitrile Disposable Gloves and when health risks are a concern you should always go for the best gloves that you can afford. By shopping around online, you should be able to find a good deal on disposable gloves no matter which type you choose.

Disposable gloves and protective equipment are an essential consideration for many industries. Always ensure you choose the best for your family as well as your workforce.

The Black Editorial

It's been awhile since I last blogged. This pandemic has caused so much fatigue to everyone. Like it or not, this is our new normal and the golden rule is to get vaccinated and wear masks as much as you can. So while I dream for a better and safer tomorrow, I've collated some of my favorite Black OOTDs pre-pandemic and pandemic days. Don't worry, we made sure we had the place all to ourselves.

BLACK DRESS + BOOTS

It keeps raining here and there so why not rain boots to pair with this LBD. The ultimate girl scout for an unpredictable weather. After all, who wants to get their feet all soaked with rainwater.


BLACK AND WHITE TERNO + SHAWL + WHITE SNEAKERS

It's time to combine both comfort and curves with this look. A terno is the easiest way to look all made up without the effort. Accessorize with an earth tone or muted shawl to complement the ensemble. Rock it with sneakers if you expect a long walk or a pair of pumps for nights you'd want to sip wine with friends.

LACE DRESS + LAYERED JEWELRY + WHITE HEELS

For those romantic nights, a lace dress is the perfect balance of sweet and sultry. Normally no accessories are needed but if you want to take another notch and play with your looks, then why not try beaded or layered accessories for a change. Wear what you feel most beautiful in.

BLACK DRESS + BELT + STRAPPY HEELS

Remember those friday nights when you can't wait to celebrate? All you need to do is change your shoes from day wear to night wear and you're all set. And yes, don't forget to wear your favorite lippie. Red lips would automatically revamp your look.

MINI DRESS + VEST + NUDE HEELS

One trick to achieve an instant diva vibe is wearing fur. Add the cap, the shades, and the heels and people might just mistake you as a celebrity. Kidding aside, you can wear your LBDs countless times by matching it with interesting styles and textures.

LEATHER DRESS + BLOUSE + COMFY PAIR OF HEELS

Time to go chic and edgy by sporting leather. I wore this in our Dessert Museum date just to bring out that fun vibe. I remember my date calling this the Korean Look. So if you enjoy Kdramas, take cue from this ensemble. 


MAXI DRESS + HANDBAG + BLOCK HEELS

Whether you're doing grocery or out for an errand, this can be your go-to look. It's a no fuss attire, allowing you to freely move. Don't forget to get your daily cup of joe especially if you're going back for zoom calls and the like.


SHEER DRESS + STYLISH HEELS

In this humid weather, sheer accents will allow your skin to breathe. It can even add a bit of charm and mystery to your aura. This dressy look is a good complement to the greens. In my case, I wore this in Fernbrook Gardens.  It was a very dreamy place where I can take fairytale-like photos.



Which Black Dress would you wear? Hope you enjoyed this post

When I Met You

February 20. 2nd Anniversary of our 'Tiger Sugar' Conversation. I found that day funny because when Ben and I became a couple, he confessed to me how intimidated he was by me. He tried initiating numerous conversations but my answers were very short that I seemed not interested according to him. Fast forward to this day, proof that his mind actually fooled him. Good thing he made an effort to chat with me everyday, eventually realizing that behind this intimidating aura is a sweet and humorous young lady.


Today, we had Tiger Sugar to commemorate that one-of-a kind day.


Ben is by far consistent with his words and actions. Last week was indeed very memorable as it was actually a week of celebrations: from my Birthday, to Valentines, to our 1.7 years as a couple and also Chinese New Year. Here are the 2 Looks I made for the Weekend. It's amazing to see how two ensembles can instantly create two different personalities.


The 1st look is Chic and Edgy. Pairing a lace top (in my case I used a lace dress) with a houndstooth skirt makes your look casual yet put together. Finishing up with red lippies is the tried and tested trick for a captivating and sexy smile.

                      

For my birthday, Ben cooked for me some steak and surprised me with one of the yummiest Cheesecake. My family can't stop raving about it. I love how we both share the same palate in terms of our gastronomic choices. He even gifted me with a new pair of earrings. Perfect for my growing collection. He really does know how to make me smile.


For the 2nd look, I went for something sweet and dainty. The overall look I wanted to achieve was natural and fresh. Ben describes this as "Korean-vibe" or "Anime-inspired".

                         

He surprised me with Roses for the 14th of February. I thought I wasn't going to get one because of the Pandemic, but he still made sure my day will be special. We had a refreshing stroll in the park with our cute dog named Timmy. What made this day extra meaningful was when we danced the night away.


Even though the New Normal wasn't the way we expected things to be, I am deeply grateful because we still get to spend time with the people we love. That for me is the most important.

Which look fits me better?

Love At First Bite

This pandemic has caused fear in the hearts of humanity. We all struggle to thrive in order to survive. If there's any sort of consolation, it's being able to discover new or existing food brands that are worth supporting for our gastronomic needs. One of my recommendations is MUM'S Lasagna.

                        

It was my boyfriend who actually first introduced this to me. Despite any distance brought about by the previous lockdowns, he wanted to keep me sane by sending me some comfort food. Up until today, I continuously make orders because for me it is one of the best lasagnas I have ever tasted. Even my family agrees with me. The lasagna comes in a red box complete with Reheating instructions, but of course it's best eaten once delivered fresh and hot.

   

Once opened, you would be surprised with how much oozing cheese and beef they packed. I would say the servings are generous and the taste is indeed Premium. It's something your family or friends can enjoy over Netflix, Boardgames et al.



Compared to other bakers, their pricing is on the high side, but trust me when I say it is worth trying even once. They don't skimp on ingredients and ensure they deliver the best quality for overall client satisfaction. Aside from All Beef, they have other lasagna variants such as Chicken or Pork. My personal favorite is All Beef. What I ordered was the Family Tray which is more or less good for 5 to 6 pax.

  

You may be stuck at home but you still have the liberty of satisfying your palate. Mums is a definitely a Good Choice. They will soon open a restaurant, that's how well loved and in demand they are.  I am thus  recommending this lasagna brand for all my readers to try. 


It's even interesting to note that they added a new dish which is Mum's Honey Roasted Chicken. I haven't tried it, but hopefully one day I can :)


Wishing all bakers and food sellers a prosperous 2021. In this pandemic, we all help each other. Let's all support local as much as possible. Keep safe everyone and Happy Valentines Day :)
