Singapore Haul: Anna Sui Makeup Tray

A straight 10 hours of shopping – 4 of which were spent in Sephora. And yet I did not manage to make a dent in the unending paradise of skincare, makeup, perfumes and haircare that is Singapore. Honestly, I never thought the city would have so much on every nook and corner… there are international brands and spas here, like Bliss and Muji Beauty, which are hard to find even in Europe or the USA. And let’s not even start on the gorgeously innovative Asian brands – that’s a different story altogether!

Will start posting more details from tomorrow when I am a little bit less exhausted (Yup! Shopping and beauty goodies scouting is a tough job!) but I couldn’t resist showing you this gorgeous, uber-glam, super-chic makeup tray that I picked up from Anna Sui today. With a gorgeous antique gold motif that looks completely heirloom-worthy, this is definitely one of the most beautiful makeup trays I have ever seen. And so I bought 6 – a couple for my dresser, one to hold knickknacks on my bedside table, another two to pretty up the office desk and one just to stash away so that I can keep taking a peak at its pristine gorgeousness. It’s part of the brand’s Fall 2012 collection and is being released as a limited edition, so get yours now! Price? Approx US$25; €20; £16.


The Beauty Gypsy is in Singapore!

Hey everyone, the reason I have been a bit erratic with posts these last few days is because I had to finish the first draft of my book (more details on that later!) before rushing off to Singapore! But now that I have finally taken root in this gorgeously eclectic city for the next couple of weeks – both for work and pleasure – stay tuned for your regular dose of updates from the world of beauty. Tomorrow, I start exploring the island for it’s uniquely innovative lotions and potions. Any suggestions about beauty brands or products that I should look out for? Or a great Singapore spa? Need your help here!
