Our skin is like a "leaky bucket", it constantly loses moisture to its surroundings, even during the times when we are doing absolutely nothing at home. We can lose about 2 glasses of water a day by just normal breathing and evaporation from our skin. Imagine how much moisture we lose just by doing our daily routines.  Besides that, skin fatigue is another key cause of moisture loss. Skin fatigue is the loss of skin energy, which leads to many unwanted changes in one's skin, including a loss of skin's ability to hold on to moisture that causes the "leaky bucket" skin to worsen as a result. To keep skin hydrated and bouncy like a baby's bottom, the products we use need to address not one but both causes of skin moisture loss.  Product knowledge: The new Olay AquAction claims to be able to do that thanks to the new HydraLock technology powered by two ingredients - WSK and Niacinamide.  This technology is inspired by the legendary beauty...

It's December! We can't run away from the party theme, everything looks extra shiny and sparkly this month. Though I'm not much of a party person (I've a terrible disease of staying home and do literally nothing), it's nice to have a few things that shouts December to give you a good reminder that the year is almost ending, it will be a good time to reflect and evaluate yourself.  December 2013 Bag Of Love theme is clean and simple, making you look your most gorgeous even with just your bare face and skin.

We Waxed, Drank and Makeover Celebrating the Marilyn in us! Honeypot hosted a small get together with a bunch of us bloggers to not only wax all our hairs off but also to get pretty and be merry! As usual, at any chance I get to do a Brazilian Waxing, I would. My hair was thinner this time because my last wax was rather recent but according to the therapist, it's harder for the wax to grab hold onto each strand. Thus, she had to go through 2-3 times on each section. Walking into Honeypot the second time saying 'YES!' to a full Brazilian Waxing felt like a no big deal anymore, I'm a big girl now.

When my work required me to start writing about guys grooming and fashion stuff, I was on my knees when this invitation came into my email. This is my very first men's grooming workshop, where I learn how to style men's hair.
