I do take my own sweet time in reviewing beauty products because I only write about something that I whole heartedly believe in. Therefore, time is of the essence and I actually try it on myself before telling the world to go and chase it from the beauty counters. My reviews are not done because I am paid to do so but the products that I wrote about before are the ones that specifically “live” on my shelf. Ok enough with me justifying my position- I have no idea why I have to, it became part and parcel of a chambee’s life I supposed. Lol.
The first product I’m gonna review today is a lip treatment by Fresh. I swear by it- I’m not even kidding. It’s the ultimate lip balm. Why? Because I have encountered chapped lip problems all my life, perhaps due to our climate. I bought it from Sephora because of the reviews and numerous awards given to it by magazines. I knew I really need to try it. So after about 2 months of using it, all I can say is AMAZING! No such thing as chapped lips and my skin is hydrated 24/7. The key to this lip treatment is the ingredients. Its eco friendly and the ingredients are eco certified with no petroleum in it. Yes stop using those lip balms which are made from petroleum. This wonderful lip treatment comes in an original color which is no color and other shades such as rose, plum and coral. But I’m in love with rose as it gives you a hint of colour yet very subtle. It’s a bit expensive but worth every cent.

Furrr...Furrr....
I just love her cool effortless vibe of the girl in the pic. She made it look easy to rock fur (although I'm agaisnt it, only faux please). Pic taken from The Sartorialist.
As white as a pelican
I still can’t seem to get over Gywneth Paltrow’s white Tom Ford dress. She’s known for her sleek and clean way of dressing therefore it’s not a surprise that she chose to wear that amazing dress to Oscar. Gwyneth took it to another level, looking like an ice queen- that cape, oh my, that cape. What can I say more, it’s the magical touch of the cape that kept everyone talking.
Another dress that did it for me was the Givenchy Couture worn by Rooney Mara. I’ve always been a fan of Givenchy Couture Collection. I love their details which are very understated but yet very intricate. Till today, I still have the image of Florence Welch in that flawless Givenchy Couture dress at the Grammy- still in my system, still fresh.
Overall, everyone on the red-carpet didn’t wow me enough. But I do adore the white Valentino dress worn by Shailene Woodley. Many critics didn’t quite like it because they thought it made her look older than her age. But personally for me, it’s a good option for the Muslims. I can’t stop thinking of how stunning it will look on Yuna. Which means, Pharell better get her into the Grammys next year. Lol.
