Finding Ways To Keep Up With Jewelry
The Best Way to Shop for Your Engagement and Wedding Ring Sets With most jewelry, we have the ability to trade it out for new fashionable pieces that fit the trends that are currently happening to fit the style of a certain era. This method of switching jewelry out to match the times is not applicable when it comes to your wedding and engagement bands. When you sit down and reflect on the purpose of your wedding bands, and truly comprehend what it means to wear one for the rest of your life on your ring finger, you really start to take the process of purchasing the right one seriously. It is critical you understand that your wedding and engagement rings are a significant and deep tangible representation of the love you share with the person you intend to walk down the aisle with, and ultimately plan to marry for the remainder of your lives together. Keep in mind, two dates that will forever remained engrained within your mind's as a couple as memorable will be your engagement and your wedding date, therefore you need to try to make sure both are as close to perfect as possible. As you shop for the appropriate wedding and engagement ring sets, it is important to pay close attention to the combinations on your ring finger. All couples must always remember that the chosen rings for their upcoming marital ceremony, as well as their engagement, will remain a symbol of their love and a constant reminder of the unshakeable love they share together, and will likely be worn for a very long period of time. Keeping this in mind, you need to ensure you do not take the choice of your rings lightly. It is advised you do not rush your decision, and you take time to choose the right size and style for your upcoming wedding.
The Key Elements of Great Diamonds
One of the best ways to shop for the right engagement and wedding bands for your wedding is to actively seek out jewelers who are experienced and can help guide you through the process. With a jeweler, he or she can assist you with fittings, styles and any other needs you may have. You may end up going with a different jeweler altogether, but talking with one right away is the best starting point. Also note, if only one person in the union will be wearing an engagement ring, it is still advised this couple work on picking the ring out together. Working on the shopping process will help to ensure you find exactly what you are searching for.Diamonds – Getting Started & Next Steps

"At the end of the school year we look forward to sending home your student's artwork in a collection that will show exploration of various media, their process, and their progression of skills throughout the year. During the school year teachers keep the majority of work to be able to assess students' growth and exhibit the work. One goal of the RVSD Art program is to showcase students art in the community; students get excited and get positive feedback from having their work on display at school and around the community in various exhibits. Student work will occasionally go home for every grade, and each school has an Art Blog showcasing our student's in-process and finished work which gives an inside look at what is happening in the art room. Please contact your child's art teacher if you would like to visit the art room or to volunteer. Thank you so much for your support of the YES Foundation! "
I am hoping that you have had the chance to look through the wonderful art your child has brought home.
Wishing you all a wonderful, restful and art filled summer!
Doretta Ruzzier & Emma Beauchamp

I wanted to make some of those nifty glass magnets, like the ones here: http://www.worldofjulie.com/crafts/glassmagnets.htm
I bought a bag of glass pebble thingies, the kind that are flat on one side, at AC Moore. Well, they turned out to be too small (I need 1" diameter ones). So I went to Michael's and saw a bigger size, brought those home and they're too big. Ugh.
Does anyone know where I can get those little glass pieces that are 1" diameter? I couldn't find any other sizes at the craft store.. the ones I got are roughly .5" and 1.5".

Café Sebastienne Ratings and Reviews
The food is excellent, we had a group of ...
The food is excellent, we had a group of 6 and all of us had great brunch options. Eggs were fluffy in the omelet, the Benedict was perfectly done and fresh. The frittata was a flavorful dish and an impressive presentation. The chocolate zucchini bread was also delicious, you only need a few bites.
The service left something to be desired. We waited a long time to get drinks, and then an even longer time to order. We actually wondered if our server was still there it had been so long. Our food came and we weren't checked on and then our bills got mixed up at the end. Pretty space, service is slow and parking is tough, not a must return in my book
We had a group of 7 for brunch and every ...
We had a group of 7 for brunch and everyone's meal was excellent. The ribeye was perfectly cooked and delicious and worthy of sharing all the way around the table. The Grouper was also perfectly cooked and delightedly spicy and wonderful. Service was excellent and the ambiance cannot be beat!
We ate in the large dining area. It was ...
We ate in the large dining area. It was nice and sunny but kind of plain. Since we were a table of 5 we could not sit in the little room with all the wonderful art. Our waiter was pleasant and helped us with our menu choices. Lunch was "out of this world" delicious! The presentation was exciting too! We all raved about our delightful meal. I can't wait to return!

Café Sebastienne may well be my favorite restaurant in Kansas City! From the dart-lined walls of the dining room to the excellent service and simply superb food, it offers a dining experience that simply can't be beat! Chef Jennifer Maloney's offerings change weekly as dictated by what's seasonal and fresh. An example: the lobster risotto my husband and I enjoyed as an appetizer was embellished with fresh tomatoes, basil and corn. I would recommend Café Sebastienne without hesitation. You won't be disappointed!
I hesitate to keep praising this place b ...
I hesitate to keep praising this place because I don't want it to become so popular that it will be hard to get a table there. However, I also don't want it to not keep operating because of low demand. It deserves more patronage than it seems to be getting. The food is always excellent, the service attentive and the atmosphere unique. Perhaps its the location, but it seldom seems crowded. So, I hope more people go there but don't tell all their friends about it, just tell the few who would appreciate what a special place this is.
A great place for lunch with friends fro ...
A great place for lunch with friends from out of the city. The lunch trio is my favorite and Jennifer Maloney has great seasonable soups and salads but my favorite is always the sandwich. Always good never a disappointment
Museum cafe
This is a lovely place for brunch. The portions are large and the food is very good. My only quibble is that it is listed as having terrace dining: actually it is an atrium, which is pleasant and a little more all weather, but not what I expected.
Brunch was recommended when we ate there ...
Brunch was recommended when we ate there for dinner. We weren't disappointed. The scones were scrumptious that even my gluten avoidant husband had 2. Frittata and beef hash were both nicely done - eggs not over cooked.! The museum opens at 10am and the Cafe at 11am and an hour is more than enough time to look at the whole collection.
We enjoyed the Mother's Day Brunch, and ...
We enjoyed the Mother's Day Brunch, and appreciated that although we had a late seating, we were still made welcome and not rushed at all. The beef hash was superb, and my husband enjoyed the smoked trout plate. We each had an excellent cocktail for brunch, as well as dessert - a medley of gelato and cookies. Everything was beautifully presented and delicious.
So disappointed.
Bad iced tea, tough frisee and little else in my salad, tiny, useless cubes of beets, a few desultory strawberries and little pieces of feta and a few toasted pecans. It is sad when a restaurant serves you something that you could make so much better at home.
I won't be going back to this restaurant, even though years ago I had some very good meals there.
Our reservations were 7:30 on a Friday n ...
Our reservations were 7:30 on a Friday night and they had run out of the halibut we'd gone to eat so that was disappointing. Otherwise our dinner was very good, but I'd call ahead and order next time because there are only about 6 choices for entrees.
A favorite
Cafe Sebastienne is one of my favorite restaurants in Kansas City. The art museum setting, the delightful cafe with reproductions of famous artworks covering all of the walls make it a colorful and eclectic place. The food is always exquisite; the service always excellent. When I have out-of-town guests, I take them to the Nelson-Atkins Art Museum and then to The KemperArt Museum's Cafe Sebastienne for lunch. My niece and I celebrate our birthdays with Sunday brunch almost every year.

Videoconferencing | News
An organization that promotes the use of technology in the classroom by putting teachers who have specific requests in touch with donors who can help make those wishes come true has launched a new service to link teachers with volunteers. Non-profit Digital Wish now offers "Virtual Volunteers," an area on its Web site. The new service allows teachers to post classroom projects and ask for a virtual volunteer who can serve via video conference; it also allows volunteers to sign up, describe their various capabilities, and volunteer to help with a class project.
For example, a fourth grade teacher is seeking help with a project in which students will create a "Glogster" for a history unit of study to encompass geography, state symbols, resources, and mining. Glogster is a social network Web site for creating and sharing interactive posters that can include graphics, music, videos, text, and other components.
A special education teacher wants help from somebody who has music education to find opportunities where students can perform their own songs. "If they will have [the] opportunity to perform or to make a recording, they will be much more excited about it!" the teacher wrote in the volunteer post.
Another teacher is looking for a descendent of one of several South Carolina Native American tribes to share insights about their cultures. And a high school science club wants help from somebody with robotics experience to guide them in building a robot to enter in competitions.
The organization said that throughout the school year it will recruit for volunteers in corporations, entrepreneur networks, and scientific associations to encourage members to help educators with their class projects.
Digital Wish emails profiles of newly posted expert volunteers to teachers who are members, and volunteers will receive email newsletters that list the latest projects seeking help.
Both groups can sign up at digitalwish.com.

" "
A mysterious island.
An abandoned orphanage.
A strange collection of very curious photographs.
It all waits to be discovered in "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children," an unforgettable novel that mixes fiction and photography in a thrilling reading experience. As our story opens, a horrific family tragedy sets sixteen-year-old Jacob journeying to a remote island off the coast of Wales, where he discovers the crumbling ruins of Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. As Jacob explores its abandoned bedrooms and hallways, it becomes clear that the children were more than just peculiar. They may have been dangerous. They may have been quarantined on a deserted island for good reason. And somehow--impossible though it seems--they may still be alive. A spine-tingling fantasy illustrated with haunting vintage photography, "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children" will delight adults, teens, and anyone who relishes an adventure in the shadows.
"A tense, moving, and wondrously strange first novel. The photographs and text work together brilliantly to create an unforgettable story."--John Green, "New York Times" best-selling author of "The Fault in Our Stars"
" "
"With its "X-Men: First Class"-meets-time-travel story line, David Lynchian imagery, and rich, eerie detail, it's no wonder "Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children "has been snapped up by Twentieth Century Fox. B+"--"Entertainment Weekly"

"'Peculiar' doesn't even begin to cover it. Riggs' chilling, wondrous novel is already headed to the movies."--"People"

HIV spread concentrated in young gay males
NEW YORK U.S. health officials say 1 in 5 new HIV infections occur in young men who are gay or bisexual.
New numbers from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show the spread of the AIDS virus is heavily concentrated in young males who have sex with other males. Only about a quarter of new infections in the 13-to-24 age group are from injecting drugs or heterosexual sex.
Blacks represented more than half of new infections in youths. The estimates are based on 2010 figures.
New U.S. HIV infections have held steady at 50,000 annually. About 12,000 are in teens and young adults, and most youths with HIV haven't been tested.

New survey reveals how data breaches impact consumer confidence, with majority of respondents calling for harsher punishments and prepared to boycott breached organisations
13 November, 2013 - LogRhythm, the leader in cyber threat defence, detection and response, today announced the results of its annual survey that reveals the UK public wants to be informed whenever an organisation suffers a data breach, and that more needs to be done to punish companies that lose sensitive information. The survey also shows that consumers call for breach notification laws that make it mandatory for all breaches to be reported to all customers - irrespective of scale.
In the survey of 1,000 consumers, conducted for LogRhythm by OnePoll, two-thirds of respondents (66 percent) said that there should be legislation forcing organisations to declare any data breaches experienced, with the same percentage stating that customers should be told immediately. While current EU legislation requires only affected customers of telecoms operators or ISPs to be notified, 64 percent of respondents reported a desire for all customers to be informed, regardless of whether their data was comprised. On a similar note, the majority of respondents feel that not enough is being done to uniformly punish organisations that lose sensitive data.
"The barrage of data breaches this year has clearly impacted the way in which consumers perceive the security of their personal information, which points to an urgent need for organisations to up the ante on data protection," said Ross Brewer, vice president and managing director for international markets at LogRhythm. "EU data privacy laws go some way toward mandating full breach disclosure, but the feedback from consumers is that much more needs to be done - across industries far beyond the telecoms sector. However, with 53 percent of respondents admitting that they would think twice about doing business with breached organisations, businesses face a very difficult dilemma indeed."
When it comes to consumer confidence, the results were equally bleak, with 48 percent believing it inevitable that their data will be compromised by hackers at some point. Echoing the results of a similar survey in November 2012, social media and gaming websites were deemed the least trusted keepers of personal information, while healthcare providers and financial services institutions were favoured for security.
"Interestingly, when compared to last year's results, the inevitability of data breaches is more apparent, which could be signalling a worrying era of data breach malaise. Perhaps, as initiatives such as the EU's 24 hour breach notification regulations develop, we'll see confidence increase and consumers becoming less resigned to the fate of their privacy. However, organisations should not be motivated solely by the threat of regulatory fines to keep data secure, and they must implement their own safeguards in an effort to reassure customers their information is safe - particularly with so many people willing to boycott the victim organisations."
In light of ongoing allegations of government-sponsored espionage, respondents reported concern over the level of information sharing between large organisations and internet companies - with 63 percent worried about the impact this has on who sees their private data. In terms of national cyber security, 16 percent of British consumers believe government organisations are doing enough to protect national assets from cyber security threats, compared to just 11 percent in 2012.
"This year, the UK government has been very outspoken about its drive to commit more resources to cyber security, which could be a reason for the slight increase in public confidence - however, it has been a tough few months, and as NSA and GCHQ spying headlines continue to mount, confidence is understandably still low," continued Brewer. "In any case, the research proves that more needs to be done by governments, industry regulators and organisations themselves to restore the confidence of those who matter most - the people handing over their private information. As consumers become more wary of how their data is used, there really is no room for excuses or lax security."
LogRhythm urges organisations to make better use of the data generated by networks so that potential threats can be identified before they have a chance to escalate. Using security intelligence platforms such as Security Information and Event Management (SIEM) as part of an integrated Protective Monitoring strategy enables automated, centralised collection and analysis of log data that ensures anomalies are identified as they occur. Developing this deep insight requires the ability to see even minor changes that may occur across the IT estate, such as files being altered or copied to portable storage devices.
The full findings of the survey can be found here: http://logrhythm.com/Portals/0/resources/LogRhythm_Survey_11.2013.pdf

Storage performance in virtualized environments isn't just about IOPS anymore.

Bryan Singer Accuser Dismisses Sex Abuse Lawsuit Against David Neuman
A sex abuse lawsuit against former Disney executive David Neuman has been dismissed. A document related to the case withdrawal was filed on Wednesday, June 4 in a Hawaii federal court. Neuman's counsel Patricia Glaser of Glaser Weil has released a statement to The Hollywood Reporter regarding the case.
"This evening the completely unfounded and 100 percent false charges against our client David A. Neuman, were dismissed. Today's news affirms to everyone that David Neuman's fine reputation deserves to stand strong and was attacked with no merit," she said.
"In as much as we celebrate the truth this evening, we will hold accountable those who wrongly created the hurt and damage by making outrageous, untruthful assertions that cannot be undone. We question seriously the underlying prejudices and motives in targeting David Neuman with this groundless and defamatory action. Today's dismissal exposes this despicable lawsuit for what it really was: an unethical smearing and failed shakedown of a completely innocent man," Glaser continued.
Back in April, a man named Michael Egan filed lawsuits against "X Men: Days of Future Past" director Bryan Singer and later three Hollywood figures Garth Ancier, Gary Goddard and Neuman, alleging that they sexually abused him when he was a minor. The alleged abuse took place in a house in Encino and Hawaii in 1999.
The four men denied the alleged actions and have filed motions to dismiss the case. All of them quoted Egan's deposition for another sex abuse lawsuit, in which he said he "never had any trips outside the continental U.S." As quoted by TMZ, Egan also said of Neuman, "I have never had any kind of physical contact with David Neuman other than what is normal and appropriate between non-sexual acquaintances."

"Very good guest Mister Jack"
"The Track Is Amazing"
"Love this tune, A BIG HOLIDAY HIT!"
"I look back foundly to the days of the specials. This track takes me right back to that place, but with modern sounds to bring it bouncing into the 21st century. The production has an 80's feel to it that almost made me feel like I was listening to vinyl! Thanks for the blast from the past!"
"Its typical ska punk with a ethnic rap and soul and blues undertones .good clear vocals.Lots of influences in one song.its original.I like it.good production , well structured."
"The female vocals are a very cool change up. The female vocal melody is very catchy and the piano solo is wonderful. Good work!"
"a nice ska sound, storybook lead vocals, great female backing vocs. kinda funny good groove"
"Ska Ska Ska I was bopping my head from the get go! Vocals are pretty good and the duet complements eachother. Nice tune with a catchy melody! "
"This is what Ska is supposed to sound like, Mustard Plug would be proud. Love the huge production, the female vocals, the horns, and the blues/jazzy piano in the background. I love the lyrics and would love to see Mister Jack play live."
"Great old school ska The music is infectious."
"Good music, wonderful personality, you know we want to see him as an on air personality."
"The chorus is awesome, really adds to the tune. Great tune guys!"
"Catchy sounding ska tune sort of reminds me of Madness or Buster Bloodvessel."
"The tim armstrong-esque lead vocals worked well, when the girl ala lily allen comes in the chorus was probably a hook upon itself."
"The song has a good sound to it. The production sounds really great! The vocals are very different It's not stuff you hear to often but different is always better!! "
"englishman reggae this is a novel idea. sounds like bob marley's backing band and the guy from the B-52s singing lead. very interesting"
"Feeling good I like the beat, the piano is very nice here. The singing bewtween the female and male vocals are cool! They workout great together. Very nice!"
"Ska-rific! Two Tone revival! The female vocals and the male vocals really fit together very well. I think with the male vocals alone, would've made this song tolerable at best. He's stronger in performance. Saxophone is phenomenal. The song is about drinking and women. Makes me want to dance."
"A hint of UK squeeze with Ska overtones"
"The beginning with the piano, guitar, and drums is great. It brought me into the work right away. The mix itself is really good, a really very catchy song. "
"It's nice and engaging Although it's not my type of music, I can say I enjoy listening to this tune. The vocals are great. Originality in the combination of pitches between male and female singers. The hook is good. "
"Saxual Healing I'm a sucker for a good reggae bassline and really liked that part of the track. Vocally I wasn't overly impressed although the two voices do fit together well. For me the sax made the record. Very nice."
"LOVELY TUNE! COULD BE A BIG HOLIDAY HIT! LOVELY TUNE...Big Up, both the male and female singer fit very well in the tune and the band sounds happy too! Really like the english accent and funny lyrics....Lilly Allen you betta watch it! Hook is fine! nice how they sing half of the hook each... "
"A very interesting song. The English accent and Reggae type song is original. The mix is really nice and the lyrics are pretty cool. Very Catchy. Vocals are very original."
"not bad for reggy-pop reggy pop is not intersting for me for about nearly five - six years ... but as for this track i can say that i like vocals... both male and female ... and i like the simplicity of the track"
"groovey! yesssssss! Love this! This definitely makes me want to drink beer at a hearty pub. I love the vocals and the fun song writing! I am going to pour me a beer now actually!"
"What A Cute Song! This song is what I like. And it is also a duet song. I like the style of the song."
"Good groove in this song, I like that caribian style."
"good song, not too slow, not too fast!! i think, more needed guitar rythms. sounds cool! yehhhh!"
"This reminds me of Pass The Dutchie?"
"Whoa. This is way different from the stuff I usually listen to. But do I like it? Sort of. I love the trombone that comes in."
"I guess this is a comedy song. Are you really English? - no-one is that cockney - are they?"
"Great vocal accent and tone on both the male and female vocals--very playful and sexual, as are the lyrics. The chorus has a nice hook too it, and it lives up to the verse, simply because the verse is talk-sung."
"The Clik Cliks doing reggae?"
"Sounding like a musical orgy involving Tim Armstrong and Mike Skinner mate!"
"Dream A Little Dream, which despite the worrying title isn't a cover version, instead what you get is a pop track with hints of reggae and hip-hop, it's catchy, fun and very now, how much more of this you could take in one set would be interesting to see though."
"Not to be confused with a bizarre French woman who plays scary Metal, South London (said Sawf Land'un) musician Mister Jack was previously known as a member of a Punk cover band, The Deviant, that mostly played songs by The Casualties, however is now going alone in this Reggae/Blues/Punk guise."

Skincare Tips to Beat the Haze
Tuesday, 30 August 2016 07:00
The haze season is back and apart from irritating our airways, the dust particles can also irritate our skin. The thought of having those pesky dust particles clogging up our skin sends shivers down our spines.
Credit: Shape
How can we still look fabulous amidst the rising PSI? Here are some beauty tips to tide you through the haze period.
1. Cleanse your skin thoroughly
Credit: Cosmopolitan
With all the dust particles flying around in the air, it is almost common sense to give your face a good wash when you are home. Remove those irritating grime with a gentle cleanser. Double-cleansing recommended.
2. Use a serum with antioxidants
The haze increases the production of free radicals in the skin and that can cause premature aging. Use a serum with antioxidants to strengthen the skin and heal skin damage. A powerful serum with antioxidants can also up the level of your skin defense when you are out and about.
3. Shield your skin with a moisturizer
Credit: Ren Dermatology
Apply a layer of moisturizer on your skin to let it act as a barrier to the haze. Furthermore, it is important to keep our skin hydrated during this haze period because dry skin exacerbates skin sensitivity.
4. Don't forget your sunscreen
The haze traps UV rays in the atmosphere and hence, UV exposure is higher during the haze period (and we already know the harmful effects of UV rays on our skin). Do not skip sun protection. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen to shield your skin from the harmful UV rays.
5. Wash your hair every day
Credit: Pop Sugar
If you skip a hair wash here and there previously, we strongly advise you to make it a good habit to wash your hair every day during this period. The dust and the grime will land on your hair and scalp, and imagine them mixing together with your natural hair oils to clog up your hair follicles. Ewww.
Homegrown Beauty Brands Everyone Should Know About
Monday, 29 August 2016 09:27
We continue to show our #SingaporeanPride in the month of August as we round up the best Made-in-Singapore beauty brands that everyone should know about. We are not world-famous (yet), but these homegrown brands are slowly putting our Little Red Dot on the map with products like the Rachel K CC Cream, founded by ex-Miss Universe Singapore Rachel Kum, going global.
Skin Inc
Making waves in the beauty scene, Skin Inc began as founder Sabrina Goh's search for products that were suitable for her sensitive, eczema-prone skin and the idea evolved into the world's first Skin Supplement Bar and highly customizable serums developed by its R&D team in Japan. Thanks to the partnership with Sephora, the brand's reach across the world is tremendous and has offices in Singapore, New York and Italy.
Handmade Heroes
Handmade Heroes is another of our homegrown beauty brands, and its natural products are parabens-free, cruelty-free and completely vegan – but feel perfectly luxurious on our skin. Their lip balms and tints are bestsellers, and definitely smell good enough to eat! Founder Lynsey Lim has been making her own products since 15 years old as she always loved natural skincare, but such products were usually too expensive. Other than being stocked in local Naiise outlets and Isetan Scotts, the brand is also sold in Malaysia and available internationally on Amazon, where the dry shampoo seems to be a hot favourite.
Shophouse Sixtyfive
My first impression of the brand was "the names of these lip balms are cute AF!" Naming the balms after Singapore icons like Sir Stamford, Sentosa Island, Honeydew Sago, Rose Bandung and Coffeeshop Kopi O, you can't help but feel that Shophouse SixtyFive is #sosingaporean, accompanied by feels of old school nostalgia. Only 24 years old, founder Petrina Yuen launched the petroleum-free handmade lip balms in 2014 after graduating in fine arts from La Salle. The name is inspired after our retro shophouses and the year of Singapore's independence in 1965 – can't get any more nationalistic than that!
Founded by Dr Lim Luping and Dr Grace Ling more than a decade ago, Dermagold is the answer to their mission of finding simple, yet effective skincare. Back then, there were only either medical-grade skincare which were too harsh for long-term use, and over-the-counter products that were seemingly less effective and unable to produce long-lasting results.
Unable to find something in the market that met their needs, the two medical doctors, also childhood friends and firm believers in au naturel beauty, decided to create their own line of skincare products that were only sold to a selected group of patients, family members and friends until early 2013 when the brand was made more accessible to the open market. The Dermagold line is currently stocked at Hadara Aesthetics Boutique and also sold at their e-shop.
Allies of Skin
Who said guys can't be beauty lovers too? Nicolas Travis started his skincare brand Allies of Skin with one goal in mind – to create effortless and time-saving products that are fuss-free and easily layered with the rest of your skincare regime. This is especially perfect for busy people who are unable to spend 45 minutes in the bathroom just to complete an entire regime. His formula goes through multiple clinical tests in US (where the products are manufactured) to ensure the products' efficacy and their suitability for everyone from their 20s to 60s. The 1A All-Day Mask is a game-changer and has a loyal following of even beauty editors!
And we're not done! There continues to be many amazing homegrown beauty brands like DrGL, Daux Fayc, Frank Skincare, Mmerci Encore, The Skin Pharmacy, Katfood, Basic Theory, and the list continues to grow. While drugstore and luxury skincare might also work for you, these local brands are also worth a try and who knows? You just might find your ultimate "Holy Grail" for beauty right under your nose.
The Hottest Makeup Trick from Korea... Jamsu Makeup
Friday, 26 August 2016 09:00
Expect nothing but the most intriguing makeup trends from nowhere else but Korea. And we have to say, most often than not, those tricks work wonders!
Credit: koreangirlshd
New in from kimchi land is the makeup technique that promises a matte and flawless base makeup. According to writer Monica Kim, this Jamsu makeup is the hottest in Korea right now. "Jamsu" roughly translates into "submerging", and yes, one important step of Jamsu makeup requires you to submerge your face into the water.
Credit: Creative Boys Club
After applying your primer, foundation and concealer, pat lots of baby powder (your usual loose powder works just as well too) until you look like you walked out from the Kabuki theatre. Prepare a little basin of water and submerge your face into the water and hold it there for around 30 seconds. Pat dry your face gently and lo and behold, you now have a smudge-proof, matte, and flawless makeup base.
According to Kim who tried the Jamsu makeup technique despite finding it a bizarre one to begin with, she mentioned that her skin was incredibly matte throughout the day, and it was also smooth and even-toned. It was also easier to apply her other makeup on top of the base after Jamsu.
Mind-boggling, yes. But as long as it works, right? We are keen to give it a shot and see if it works. Leave a comment to let us know whether it worked for you if you are planning to try it!
[Blogger Jacelyn] Laser Treatment for Clear, Glowing Skin at Halley Medical Aesthetics
Thursday, 25 August 2016 07:00
Hi friends, I had taken a break from blogging as I was busy for the competition of Miss Singapore International (MSI) 2016 which happened just a few weeks ago. Prior to the competition, I was so busy juggling work and trainings; I had so many breakouts multiple times a week (the thick makeup I have to wear made my skin so much worse too). Usually, I battle with small pimples on my forehead, but this year, (to my horror!), I've started having a few big pimples on my cheek and chin area together with some stubborn red marks from old breakouts.
For awhile, I relied on over-the-counter products but quickly I realized they don't treat the root problem of acne, and they take very long to decrease inflammation. Dryness of the skin usually comes with it too. That is when I decided I needed to seek professional help and here I am back with trusty Dr. Terence Tan from Halley Medical Aesthetics.
Why I like visiting Halley Medical Aesthetics:
- For customized solutions that address my specific skin concern. This visit, Dr. Tan professionally designed an "off the menu" laser treatment specially for me.
- There are no downtime solutions for me! I can get treated and go up and about for my daily schedule right after the treatment.
After a comprehensive consultation, Dr. Terence Tan customised a no downtime laser treatment combining two different lasers to address my acne concerns and improve my skin texture. The first was a long pulsed laser treatment to treat acne by clearing and rejuvenating pores. The second was a Q-switched laser to minimise pigmentation. The treatments came in timely as I was just one week to the finals of MSI competition and I want nothing but perfect skin for the big day.
Double cleansing on the face before starting the treatment
For any treatments to be effective, the first step has got to be thorough cleansing. Halley Medical Aesthetic has an experienced and professional team that always make me feel at ease when they work their magic. I was comfortably lying down on their reclining treatment chair, while Dr. Tan's assistant helped with the removal of my existing makeup. The facial cleanser they use removes impurities on the surface skin and helps prepare my skin for the treatment thereafter.
You can spot many stubborn red acne marks on my face
The red spots on my face are actually acne marks that have been there for a long time. As a perfectionist and someone who is in the beauty industry, I am emotionally disturbed every night by the presence of such unsightly scars. I am sure many of you will know what I mean because these tiny scars take what seems like FOREVER to lighten or even disappear.
Different modes for different skin concerns
The first part of the laser treatment is the long pulsed laser prescribed for me by Dr. Tan because it can accurately focus on small spots with very high energy. The aim is to target the specific problematic spot without harming the surrounding tissue. The whole process was almost painless (discomfort level is 1 out of 10 with 10 as most uncomfortable), and the whole procedure was so relaxing, I hardly felt any discomfort or pain. Along with the laser therapy, Dr. Tan used another hand piece that provided a constant stream of cooling air to cool and provide comfort on my face. So imagine an intense cool stream of air like air con being blown on your face during the entire therapy, the feeling was so SHIOK (sorry for the lack of a better word!)!
Dr. Tan working his magic on me
Dr. Tan's professionalism always wow me every visit as the process is usually very quick, fuss-free and delivers results. He chats with me during the process to make me feel very relax.
As a safety precaution, I am wearing the appropriate eye protection
Long pulsed laser to treat acne and rejuvenate pores
The second treatment is the Q-switched laser, it is made of extremely short pulse duration and it targets very small pigment cells and particles. Comparing the two lasers, this second one has a tapping effect that could be felt. You could feel short pulses of energy being directed onto your face. Discomfort is only a low 3 out of 10, where 10 is the most uncomfortable. The process was quick; it took only around 5-10 minutes to cover the whole surface area of the face. The two laser treatments combined makes it perfect for a lunch time rejuvenation or an express acne recovery treatment when you need it.
What do I love about this treatment? There is no redness, bruising, blistering, and pain AT ALL. Throughout the process, I could almost fall asleep. Also, I am so impressed that Dr. Tan is so meticulous! He wouldn't miss any spots; I have some acne scars below the area where the goggles was covering and Dr. Tan would lift the goggles up to make sure he covered every single spot. For the two laser treatments, there was no needles or anaesthesia involved. It took only 20-30 minutes for the whole face. Anyone of any age who suffers from acne, acne scars or enlarged pores are recommended for this procedure. The laser treatment stimulates deep collagen production to improve the scars from within. As mentioned by Dr. Tan, laser treatments improve the skin, but it will take a few sessions, hence, expectations need to be managed when undertaking this treatment to clear or remove your acne concerns.
The result? Beautiful, clearer skin!
In summary, this procedure is safe, has no side effects and no downtime. After only one treatment, I could visibly feel that my skin is brighter and smoother. The cost for each individual treatment is at $370 each. For optimal results, minimise exposure to the sun right after treatment and repeated visits are recommended!
Avoid the sun at all cost with this sun-protection hat
Photo taken right after the treatment
Here's a photo of me taken right after the treatment, and you can see that my face is practically glowing even without makeup. I was ready to go for my next appointments for the day too! On a side note, here's presenting to you the First Runner-Up and subsidiary award title Miss Elegance from Miss Singapore International 2016. A big thank you to Halley Medical Aesthetic for taking care of my skin needs for me to look perfectly flawless before the audition (when I did my fillers) and attentively taking care of my acne scar marks just 16 days before my finals.
I always feel the best doctors are those who care about your concerns and find the most suitable solution for you. Thank you Dr. Tan for making me feel at home whenever I am at Halley Medical Aesthetics! For my readers, if you had been plagued with any skin issues, be empowered to improve things and learn ways to achieve the perfect skin you have always desire too!
