Does wireless charger sounds alien to you? If yes, then you are just like me >.<  I only get to know about it when my friend from RocktLabs, Elgena told me about it. So, i decide to try out how wireless charger works.

My troubles with wire....

I hate charging my phone in my bag, with wire tangling my key, my wallet, etc. Sometimes, the wire is everywhere and is even worst when i have to take out my ezlink card while alighting the bus. After charging up, I have to keep my wire separately in a small pouch, and open it up again when i need to charge. 

With wireless power bank, you save the hassle to plug in and out of your phone! You need not have an additional pouch in your bag just for your wire. And let's see how it works!


Left:  Wireless Charger 10,000mAh
Right:  Wireless Charging Receiver case

Its very simple to use actually. All you need is the wireless charging cover and the battery. If you are using iphone 4s, 5s, 6 or android, remember to to get the correct one or otherwise it won't work. 


Charge Specifications:
  • Battery capacity: 10,000mAh
  • Input power: DC5-/+ 0.25V/1A
  • Product Dimension: 135 x 80 x 10 mm
  • Product Weight: 252g
  • Charging efficiency: 74%
  • Transmission distance: 5mm
  • Implementation of Standards: QI standard
  • Product certification : CE/FCC/ROHS
  • Adapters certification: CE/FCC/UL
  • Colour: White


Saw this square thingy? You will be putting on your phone on the square for charging. There is a LED light indicator at the side to tell you your battery life.

Looking at the side of the battery, there is an input and output like all other battery. USB wire is given to charge the phone. Please do not think that you can charge the battery in a wireless way.



After I on the battery, the light would be on. Well, it tells you that your battery is working fine right haha. 

Now you know that everything is working fine, its time to take out the wire charging phone cover~~


Well, this is easy. Just wear this over your phone.

Saw the difference between this cover and the other fanciful covers? Its difficult to miss the charger port haha.

Please note that this will only work with a wireless charging pad.

Technical Specification:

  • Output Voltage : 5V
  • Charging Frequency : 100-299KHz
  • Transmission distance: 5mm
  • Efficiency < 72%
  • Charging Voltage: 5V
  • Charging Current: 500mAh - 1000mAh
  • Implementation of standards: QI standard standard
  • Product certification : CE/FCC/ROHS
  • Colour: Black
Give you guys a closer look haha!

Like i mention earlier, please do not buy the wrong phone cover or otherwise your iphone 5s can't work on a iphone 4 >.<

Putting the cover on, the next thing to do is to put it on the battery charger. 

As simple as ABC

When it is charging, the first thing you will notice is the sound of the connection. The type of sound when connection with the charger is made. Once you hear it, you know that everything is well. 

Notice that the blue light lit up once i place my phone on it?


So you see, this is what we meant by wireless charging pad! No more wire, no more hassle.


And its charging!! 

It is good for office use especially you have a messy table . The speed of charge up is alright but the capacity can last you charging a few times on the phone. You can put them in a bag as well, if you want it to be secure, maybe you can tie them together so that the phone and battery wouldn't lost the connection or use it during your meals time.

LED light indicator to tell you battery life.
Overall, it is a good product to use. The battery itself cost $168 while the charging cover cost $29.90. Though it is a wireless charging thingy, you can still lend to your friend to use it, if they are using different kind of phone. Remember there is a output port? It does act as a power bank and you can charge it up with cable like all other power bank does. The unique function it offers is that they can charge your phone wireless. 

If you are looking for a decent gift, you can consider getting this for your friends or loved ones :)

Going into second week of June, I was just into my new job. I was not used to getting up so early but after a few days, I have no problems with that.

One of the day when i reached home, i saw a parcel on my table. I do not know what it was as i did not purchase anything online. But i opened anyway.

And ta-da~~,  I was surprised to receive Glamabox! Thanks Glamabox for the awesome products every month.

And this time, there were slightly more items as usual. Let's see what's in there.

WOW!


1. Ysyoo - 1 Minute Skin /miracles CC Cream SPF 30++

There are a wide variety of CC Creams in the market. Ysyoo is a pretty new brand to me and i only get to know them when i received the Serum from Glambox last month. Ysyoo CC cream has 5 functions: acts as a makeup base, conceal blemishes, moisturises, repairs and brighten skin tone. It emanates translucent and shiny glow to your skin, just like those actresses you see in Korean drama.

Instructions: After toner, remove the film and attach to nasolabial folds. Put on for 3-4 hours and remove. Can apply during sleep too!

6. Royal Skin - Animalian Mask

Instructions: Apply on skin for 10-15 minutes and tap face gently for skin to absorb the excess essence.


7. Filare - Collagen Filato Fabric Ball

9. DHC- Mild Soap

Contain olive oil and honey. Rich foams cleans out grease, dirt and cutin, leaving skin refreshing.

Instruction: Wet palms and later into soap. Gently massage on face and rinse.




I had personally used the cleansing wipes and the shampoo before. The cleansing wipes remove light makeup but the wipes tend to dry very fast before i could finish using that pack. As for the LSnP shampoo and conditioner, I like the texture as it gets foamy as soon as i lather with my wet hands. It gets foamy with just a small amount of shampoo.

Once again, thanks Glamabox for the awesome gift box! This time, as Glamabox celebrates Mother's Day, most of the products contain collagen with moisturizing effect. Pamper your mum with this surprise box and I'm sure she will love it!

2015 is a year of long weekends! If you are planning to go on holiday, the next best travel date would be 1st May (Fri) to 3rd May 2015 (Sun). To all working adults, it's time to reward yourselves to 3 days 2 nights overseas trip! That is how we should be spend Labour day ! *Whee~~* If you think its too rush to make any trips, you may consider to travel on 7th August *hehe*

Thankfully, my love and I were planning to a short trip to Genting next week. His birthday is near the corner and we thought that it would be special to celebrate his birthday somewhere beyond Singapore. We love going to regions which are colder as to avoid the all year round summer in Singapore. 

All of us love overseas trip, but when it comes to packing of clothes and facial products, it would be a hassle (Don't you agree??!) Firstly, you have to think of how many clothes to bring, the type of clothes to wear etc. Same goes to facial products!! I have lots of big sized bottles which bringing all of them would only add weight to my luggage. Being a heavy user of beauty products, I have cleanser, toner, serum, eye care, moisturiser and occasion scrubs. Imagine I had to bring all full sized bottles for my short trip.... ...

Luckily, thanks to Luxola, I received Laneige Travel Set which i am prepared to bring for my overseas trip!

The travel set was well packed.


It comes with :
1. Laneige Multi Cleanser

Using my closeup lens. It is kinda of like water gel cleanser. It leaves your skin hydrated and smooth after 1 wash.

It suits all skin types with 4 functions: Remove makeup, sunscreen, exfoliating, last but not least, cleansing. Upon application, you can feel the micro beads scrubbing away those dead skin, leaving your skin cleansed and refresh. 

2. Perfect Renew Skin Refiner _EX

Gel type skin booster which penetrates into skin for hydration and tension. Use this after cleansing, pump 1-2 times and apply on the skin.

3. Perfect Renew Emulsion_EX


Lotion with the watery effect which reduces dry skin and aging. It helps to keep your skin moist and smooth everyday! After application, you can see the differences after I applied the product on the back of my hand. You can use this after skin refiner.


Before application. The skin of my hand is so dry! You can see fine lines under the lens.

After application. You can still see the lines but it wasn't as obvious as the one before.

4. Perfect Renew Essence _EX

 The essence helps to prevent premature aging and helps your skin looks more contoured. In order to see the effects, I believe in applying the product correctly and accordingly. Interesting, Laneige does provide information on their website on how to apply the essence.

5. Perfect Renew Skin_EX

Perfect Renew Skin helps to take care on the first step of aging. The first signs of aging starts usually at 25. Well, it is already happening to me when I find myself having smile lines just one fine day. This cream could possibly help me to reduce my smile lines from becoming obvious haha. It aids in dry skin, basics cause of skin trouble, leaving them smooth and moist.

I received my Glamabox during the last week of February. It was indeed a long wait due to holiday seasons but that never stops me being excited waiting for my parcel!

Received the same design as i did last October.

Sure enough, i received different beauty products and I would love to share with you!!
I have some small size products for whitening, cellulite, minimizing pores, hair pillow masks, overnight gel etc. In my 10 odd years, whitening products had become part of my essential facial routine that I absolutely can't miss. When I was younger, I used to be very tanned as I play sports often (Well, no one can really see that I was once a sportsman ). Many of my relatives praised my sister for her fair and beautiful skin while I, wasn't so lucky as pimples would pop out almost every week. It was until 16 when I learnt to take good care of my skin. Though i had pimples occasionally, but it wasn't as bad as i were 10 years ago.
