The Adorable Miffy & DEARPACKER Are Here To Save Your Skin

| |
Hi Huneybees,


Recently, I've been letting my fingers do the travelling and shopping via Airfrov. It is a service that allows lets me shop via travelers and to have them help me get those overseas items without me having to fly all the way there or have my purchases go through pesky overseas mailing procedures.

I tend to browse through other requests made and the pro here is that I get to discover new things to try or even explore brands that I've not heard of. But then, the con is that I'm digging deeper and deeper into my pockets. Wahahahaha!

Anyway, that brings us to what I have for you today - DEARPACKER x Miffy collab set. DEARPACKER is a Korean brand manufactured my LG Health Care. They have a lot of skincare products that are differently country themed, using ingredients that are signature to that country to make the masks!


This set (priced at 27,800 won) that I've gotten  features Miffy on 2 of their products - Royal Black Black Tea & Black Rose Mask and Alaska Glacier Soothing Pack. It comes bundled with a pack of oil blotters, a Miffy Mug with cup cover. They all looked so pretty together and so calming to look at...


The box packaging has Miffy in winter clothings and her royal suit, printed on thicker, premium quality hard card instead of the usual flimsy 100gsm looking type. It makes the products so much more 'atas looking', 


The one that intrigues me the most is the Royal Black Mask. It is gel based and once I opened the tub, it smells heavenly with the rose and ceylon extracts, almost as though I'm holding a nice cup of hot tea! Super relaxing...


The mask has 77% rose extract and black tea extract with a blend of aroma oils like camomile, rosemary, lavender, sweet almond oil and Damask rose oil. It helps with the skin elasticity, purifying the skin, soothing, softening and helps with enlarged pores.


Simply use the enclosed plastic spoom to take amount you need and smooth it over your face. Wash off after 10 mins with lukewarm water. 

What I like about it is the ceylon tea bits that kinda scrubs my face as I wash the mask off. My face feels super smooth and moisturised after applying this mask.

I would recommend to use the mask before makeup for that additional moisture you need throughout the day and you makeup will stay flawless through the day, now that you've got the best 'canvas' to work on.

You can also use this mask as a scrub or even as a sleeping mask, but I will recommend to let the mask dry up a little before lying on your pillow as it could be a little messy and sticky... 


Next is the Alaska Glacier Mask. Just like it's name suggests, this little miracle is good to use for our recent weather, especially for those who work outdoors, under the sun.


It is a translucent gel cream with white beads that consist of Alaskan river water and minerals like white birch extract, mint extract, Arnica flower extract, snowrose extract, wild strawberry extract,etc, that helps in relaxing, calming and cooling down the skin.


You can use this as a moisturiser during the summer days and all you have to do is scoop about 2-3 spoons of the gel, apply it all over the face, and massage the product into your skin. Enjoy the chill and I think it makes a good product to use in the morning. It refreshes the skin, waking me up in the process and when its fully absorbed, my skin feels baby smooth, which again allows makeup to go on nicely too!



Their official website is http://dearpacker.lgbeautymall.com/dearpacker.jsp?null and I'm thinking of trying the other range too. Have you guys tried before? What's the verdict?

If you are keen to try out Airfrov too, use this code R1RVJ for S$10 deduction on your very first overseas purchases! :)

Is Zayn Malik Taking Us On A Rollercoaster Ride?

| |
Hi Huneybees,

Photo: www.mercurynews.com
On Wednesday's trending list, I was tinkled pink as Zayn Malik was on the top of the list. This ex-One Direction member has quit the chart-topping boyband after 5 years to "live the life of a normal 22 year old, out of the spotlight"


This news got his fans doing a major meltdown with crying videos and even a petition for compassionate leave. I was baffled with ten thousand "HUH?!"in my head, wondering what spells he has casted to get such a response???


Making amends: Zayn publicly apologised after being pictured with his arm around Lauren Richardson and told his fans, 'I'm sorry for what it looks like'
Zayn's decision to leave the band came after he was signed off the current tour with 'stress,' in the aftermath of cheating rumours that surrounded viral pictures that saw him cuddling up to a young, blonde holidaymaker Lauren Richardson in Thailand last week.

But after today's latest update, all those tears might prove to be in vain. Zayn himself just confirmed that he WILL be embarking on a solo career. Speaking to The Sun just six hours after saying that he wanted to be 'out of the spotlight', Zayn confirmed that his plan was to: 'Be myself for a bit. Write and relax and chill.'

He expressed that he had 'never felt more in control in my life' and was seen heading to a recording studio in London the very next day, with reports that he's already working on his first solo release with a chart topping music producer - 
Naughty Boy


I'm feeling a little cheated and misled.
Wonder if this is a new marketing strategy or his way of playing an April Fools' joke. 
What do you think?

Taylor Swift Should Be A Victoria's Secret Angel Too!

| |
Hi Huneybees,


This year's Victoria's Secret Fashion Show was brought to London for the first time on Tuesday at the London's Earls Court Exhibition Centre. The extravagant creations of bejewelled bras and "angel wings" were definitely not to be missed, but Taylor Swift's performance was one of the highlights, in fact, this tall, lengthy babe should be walking the catwalk show too!


Other than "flirting" with her BFF -  Victoria's Secret model Karlie Kloss, both Taylor's outfits spell subtle sexiness for this 24 year old starlet. Be it black lingerie ensemble with a lace combo or the soft sweet pink silk nightgown, she was looking every inch like an "angel" with her model-sque figure. Don't you agree?




Here's a snippet on what went down at the show:



Wonder who will be performing at next year's show....

Travelling Around The World During Heineken Cities Festival

| |
Hi Huneybees,


September arrived with plenty of good news and fun for Huney'Z World. At the end of August, we traveled around the world with Heineken, as Ann Siang Hill and Club Street was transformed and sectioned into 6 major metropolitan cities - New York, London, Amsterdam, Rio De Janeiro, Shanghai and of course, Singapore.








It was an epic night of fun for partygoers like me at the Heineken Cities Festival. This first-of-its-kind Singapore street festival had exciting performances from Brazilian samba drummers, break dancers, face painting and internationally-acclaimed DJs.




I went decked in my new LED lighted up pair of sneakers, (*tuned to green light) and went around exploring the "world" with my limited Heineken Cities edition bottles. I even bumped into Noel Boyd!





The festival was also held to celebrate the launch of the new Limited City Edition Heineken bottles. We had fun "collecting" the bottles, the drink is still the same, but now it has become a special collection that you can share with your friends! Do look out for these special bottles and here's ending the post with more photos from that night...

“The Heineken Cities Festival celebrates the various worldly experiences in Singapore by bringing to life the different sights and sounds from various top cities across the globe. We hope that it will inspire all to explore their city and venture out of their usual routine to embark on their own legendary adventures.” --- Rene de Monchy, head of marketing, Asia Pacific Breweries Singapore.

Thank you Heineken for the wonderful night!

Catch Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond on 5 June 2014!

| |
Hi Huneybees,


"Bond, James Bond" is the iconic line, that everyone know who. I bet you must be familiar with the one who goes by 007, James Bond, but before his thrilling adventures hit page or screen, they were experienced first-hand by their author-to-be, Ian Fleming.



Starting from 5 June, Thursday, KIX and KIX HD will be airing Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond first and exclusively. In this exciting four-part drama, Dominic Cooper (Captain America: The First Avenger) stars as the cunning creator of one of the most famous fictional heroes in history.



Untroubled by the spectre of impending war, roguish playboy Ian Fleming (CHARMING Dominic Cooper) chases women, collects rare books and lives off the family fortune. Forever in the shadow of his brother Peter (Rupert Evans) and an eternal disappointment to his formidable mother Eve (Lesley Manville), Ian is finally given some direction in his life when he’s recruited by Admiral John Godfrey (Samuel West) to help in the effort against the Nazis. With the somewhat skeptical support of tough-cookie Second Officer Monday (Anna Chancellor), Ian’s extraordinary imagination and ability to spin a yarn makes him a perfect fit for espionage. In tandem, the stakes increase as Ian’s chance encounter with the captivating Lady Ann O’Neill (Lara Pulver) becomes a passionate affair that shapes both their lives.



Directed by Mat Whitecross (Sex & Drugs & Rock & Roll and the BAFTA®-nominated Road to Guantanamo) and written by John Brownlow and Don Macpherson, Fleming captures both the opulence of high society London and the suspense and intrigue behind enemy lines. While Bond fans will spot many a nod to the legendary agent, the series is ultimately a gripping account of a playboy spy and the woman who won his heart.

Character Biographies



IAN FLEMING – Dominic Cooper
The debonair, enigmatic creator of James Bond, whose real life is as exciting and sexually-charged as that of his famous creation. We meet Fleming as a lost young man with only one sure purpose in his life: the pursuit of pleasure. But the Second World War and a position in Naval Intelligence could be the making of him.

ANN O’NEILL – Lara Pulver
Elegant, independent and alluring, Ann is a leading figure among London’s social elite. She is married to Lord O’Neill, but while he serves in the military she is indulging in an affair with newspaper magnate Esmond Rothermere. When she meets Fleming, however, the pair are infatuated and become entangled in a twisted game of passions.



SECOND OFFICER MONDAY – Anna Chancellor
Monday is Admiral Godfrey’s secretary and Fleming’s liaison. She’s highly capable and is the first to spot the potential in Fleming, in spite of his self-destructive tendencies.



MURIEL – Annabelle Wallis
The very first incarnation of the Bond girl, Muriel is a beautiful dispatch courier who falls in love with Ian, and hopes, against the odds, that she can be the one to win his heart.



ADMIRAL GODFREY – Samuel West 
The inspiration for ‘M’. Godfrey hires Fleming for his position in the Navy and while initially sceptical and cantankerous, he grows to admire Ian’s ingenuity.



PETER FLEMING – Rupert Evans
Ian’s older brother, Peter tries to help keep his sibling on the straight and narrow and can be a little unintentionally patronizing at times. Already a successful author, he joins the army early in the war and sees the terrifying realities of battle first hand.



EVELYN ST CROIX FLEMING – Lesley Manville
Ian’s mother is a known society beauty and a force of nature, exuding all the power a woman in her position at that time had. Always championing Peter at Ian’s expense, she has a very strained relationship with her son and intensely disapproves of his dalliance with Ann.



So, be sure to catch Fleming: The Man Who Would Be Bond on KIX (StarHub Cable TV Channel 518) and KIX HD (SingTel mioTV Channel 309) starting from Thursday, 5 June, at 10pm!
