Paperman (2012)

written by Walt Disney Animation Studios

An animated short that follows the story of a lonely young man in mid-century New York City, whose destiny takes an unexpected turn after a chance meeting with a beautiful woman on his morning commute. Convinced the girl of his dreams is gone forever, he gets a second chance when he spots her in a skyscraper window across the avenue from his office. With only his heart, imagination and a stack of papers to get her attention, his efforts are no match for what the fates have in store for him.

Enjoy and Happy Valentine’s Day!

SANA – Defining Your Eyes

21May 2011

By MelissaJane

Our eyes are the windows to our soul and we can never refute how important our pair of eyes are to the appearance of our faces. They are central to the face and is the brightest part of it because its mobility (we blink, rove our eyeballs around and our pupils reflect light)

I must say an important asset to be are my eyes too – I don’t have a sharp nose, in fact it’s very “button”, but my eyes are often complimented and they provide a deep gaze. Just so unfortunately my myopia is very serious such that no coloured contacts have the kind of degree for me! Else I would be so happy to enjoy a pair of blue-green eyes I so adore. Hence I’m currently saving up for LASIK and make do with the light brown eyes that I naturally have.

Anyway, this picture is what I specially selected – what I call unforgettable, mesmerizing eyes that you can’t take your eyes off, literally!

Same for guys, a pair of deep set, captivating eyes just makes him so attractive!

Before I digress too much, this is another post reviewing products from SANA!

Time to put some colours on and define the eyes with liner, eyeshadow and mascara!

Got to sample 3 awesome, awesome products from SANA!

The Sana Super Quick Liquid Shadow EX, Sana Extra Heavy Eyeliner and Sana GAFIXX Mascara F101

I started out using the eyeliner, and I’m really impressed at how easy it is to use it because the liquid glides on so quickly and smoothly. It’s really easy to line your eyes with this beauty product and I love the results too! The liquid is also really thick and heavy and it dries up very fast as well.

Look how sharp and sleek the tip is! I’ll definitely purchase it myself after this is used up because it’s a great product! Doesn’t smudge, dries quickly, offers good control and is a fuss-free liner

Circles the eyes completely! Eyeliner that hugs the eyes, leaving no spaces!! This brush does it all! Super consistent model! Using its thick, flat brush pen blocks off the eyelashes and the area between the eyelashes!
Make your eyes look huge with these super-tight lines!!

Note:This product is not suitable for customers who do not want strong features.Using the thick, flat brush pen:

Flat brush pen type: The thick, flat brush pen fits the lash lines. Block off the eyelashes and the area between the eyelashes!
HEAVY BLACK: Accentuate black eyes! Huge impact!!
Water-resistant film formula: Keep crisp lines that look like they were just drawn on for long periods with this blur-resistant, quick-drying formula!

Worried about having a hard time controlling when drawing your eye line? Do not fear for SANA’s EXTRA Heavy Eyeliner is HERE! (:

You have complete control – since it’s a flat brush, you can draw super-thin or thick lines depending on how you use the brush surface.

Take a close look at the ways you can draw using the Thin tip and Flat tip !

UP NEXT! The defining liquid shadow~

Just twist the bottom to get the liquid rising up to the brush tip. The golden-brown liquid is shimmery and overall has a pretty colour. Nice

You can line both your upper and lower lids to highlight your eyes with the glitter and give more depth to your eye makeup.

This liquid eyeshadow, like the liner, is also easy to use and the liquid glides on smoothly, exactly how you apply it without smudging. There is also room for blending immediately after application, just don’t wait till it has entirely dried up!

See how I topped up the black eyeliner with the golden-brown eyeshadow and that brought more “life” to my eyes? I didn’t line my bottom lid because I wanted to keep my makeup lighter that day~

Finally, the mascara launched in October 2010!

Falsies are very commonly used in Singapore. Falsies are troublesome when you’re rushing for time especially when they drop out halfway during an important function or shopping trip .Japan is slowly moving out of falsies trend and THIS is the new awesome trend!
A Mascara which can give u the effect of falsies!Move on from falsies – try Silhouette Mascara! Get girly eyes through flare silhouette!

Use Silhouette for light eyelashes that curl up

Special Features:

Lightweight fibers cause eyelashes to curl up lightly
Each and every lash is coated with a clear, black color
Long, strong curls, all the way from the roots
Unique brush: Consist of round side and square side

True enough I REALLY MAD LOVE this product because it gives me long and thick lashes that stay without needing to top up every time! Just this product is good, don’t even need a lash primer~

SuperNature + Party Must Haves!

16Nov 2009

By MelissaJane

Everywhere I go reminds me of Christmas! If not for the exams, the mood to party and celebrate birthdays and pre-Christmas activities is already here!!! Amazing. How this atmosphere cheers me up and spurs me on to work harder so that I can have a better holiday (mind at peace), that is. Afterall, my internship programme for the first 7-8 months in 2010 means that it’s gonna be a different lifestyle for me altogether. No more boring lectures and tutorials for the entire week. I’m only taking 2 core modules. Well, while the Sunday Times yesterday compares the Christmas light-up at Orchard and Marina Bay, I’m bringing to you some ideas about Christmas cooking – the ingredients and recipes at least. Oh that reminds me? Did all of you watch Julie and Julia – it’s a great movie for cooking enthusiasts and budding chefs! Did that capture your interest? Read on!

SuperNature – Singapore’s leading retailer of organic and natural products!

SuperNature

I received a mailer from them this morning and the whole idea of “going organic” makes me all interested because I’ve always believed in the health benefits of organic stuff - away from mass produced and chemically treated “junk”.

“SuperNature sources fresh produce, deli items and groceries, as well as baby and children’s, beauty and wellness, household, pet and garden care products. We also supply many of Singapore’s organic retailers and restaurants.

SuperNature scours the world for the best products, currently sourcing from the United States, United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Italy, Japan and Thailand. 95% of our products are organic, certified by credible certification bodies such as the USDA (United State of Department of Agriculture), the Soil Association (UK), and the JAS (Japanese Agricultural Standard).

SuperNature also carries a select range of natural but not certified organic products such as antibiotic-free and hormone-free meat, sustainable, wild-caught seafood, and gluten-free and wheat-free breads and pasta. Consistency is assured by the fact that SuperNature is the direct importer of all its products, dealing directly with suppliers and not with middlemen.” – http://www.supernature.com.sg

Nice!

SuperNature even has tips on their website on how to prepare a healthy and delicious Christmas meal for your guests at home, in addition to information on genetically modified foods in contrast to the art of appreciating “Slow Foods” – discover your love for organic now!

Do drop by SuperNature’s eshop for your online shopping experience! My favourite page will be the Beauty and Wellness section – they stock organic and natural vitamins, vegan-suitable supplements and a wide range of alternative medicines like Bach Flower Remedies, natural cosmetics, skincare, bodycare, haircare and wellness choices without any irritants, toxic or artificial ingredients! Wow! This could be the next new rage after mineral makeup!

“Organic makeup” anyone?
