Barbie + Wings + Heart = The Ultimate SG60 Tribute

Barbie has always been about empowering imagination, and this time, she’s doing it for a cause that’s close to the heart. Wings of Art is more than just a pretty showcase; it’s a nationwide creative initiative supporting the Singapore Red Cross’ Young Hearts Programme, which raises $100,000 for underprivileged children through education and mentorship. 

And guess what? You can be part of the magic. For a donation, you’ll receive a Barbie doll, wings, and access to a crafting station stocked with art materials. Whether you're painting, bedazzling, or sprinkling fairy dust, this is your chance to let your inner child fly.

You can even choose to bring your Barbie home as a keepsake or donate it back to be part of the SG60 runway! Either way, you’ll be helping dreams take flight - literally. 🪽

100% of proceeds will go toward the Singapore Red Cross’ Young Hearts Programme, benefiting underprivileged children with education and mentorship. Donations are 250% tax-deductible.

Embrace Your Wild Side with UNO®'s Exhilarating New Launch

Hi Huneybees,

Ever played UNO®? It's been my go-to card game for ice breakers at social parties and gatherings. It was first introduced in 1971, going through several different versions; and today, UNO® is now available in over 80 countries with various innovative card-based and digital games.

Recently, Mattel, Inc announced the launch of their UNO® All Wild™ Card Deck. Consisting of only wild cards, this unpredictable and creative deck will put a new spin on the game night classic.

“This exciting twist on the traditional UNO® card game is yet another milestone on our innovation journey. It is a testament to our brand purpose of becoming more inclusive. As the number one card game in the world, UNO® has transcended time, language, culture and age, and has since evolved into the cultural phenomenon it is today. Riding on the momentum from UNO®’s 50th Anniversary last year, the brand combines current insights, trends and meme culture to bring our consumers fresh ways of playing the game.” --- Ray Adler, Global Head of Games, Mattel, Inc.

New Rules
The UNO All Wild™ variation does away with the usual coloured and numbered cards. While there is no matching of number or colour like regular UNO®, it is definitely not as easy as it sounds.
 
Get ready to challenge your friends and family with the UNO All Wild™ Card Deck and explore the limitless possibilities! Players are dealt a hand from a deck of 112 cards. Taking turns, players play Skip, Double-Skip, Draw, Targeted Draw, Reverse and Hand Swap cards until they get rid of all their cards. This edition is as addictive as it is exhilarating and makes a great gift for players 7 years and older.

Exciting Promotions

Lazada GSS Sale 6 - 8 June 2017 + 18% Discount PROMO CODE*

Hi Huneybees,

Get your fingers ready, train that index finger with a "dumb bell" as you want to be clicking as fast as possible from 6th to 8th June for the best Great Singapore Sale (GSS) deal ever!

Lazada will once again be surprising us with branded curated boxes at SGD$29 each. Each box could be worth SGD$100 and above, which is way way wayyyy above their original prices. 

Over the 3 days period, there will be 50 boxes up for grabs in 2-hour intervals (which means each box is available for only 2 hours!), each focused on a specific brand's products. The contents and the release time of the Surprise Boxes are a secret, but you at least get to choose the type of Surprise Box, based on the brands that will be mentioned. It's the fastest fingers first thing, so stay peeled!

Day 1 - 6 Jun 2017

Day 2 - 7 Jun 2017

Day 3 - 8 Jun 2017

The participating brands are as above.

Just gona keep 2 products in the surprise element...

For a sneak peek, I have with me the LAZADA x Garnier Surprise Box, inside you can find skincare products for not just the ladies, but also for the guys too! My favourite is definitely the Micellar Cleansing Water. It comes in Pink for all skin types and also a Blue one for Oily and Acne Prone skin.

If you don't already know, the Micellar Cleansing water is a hassle free makeup remover, where you don't even have to follow up with a second cleansing to remove the dirt. It works best for me as I have sensitive eyes, even the slightest product gets into my eye, will give me red eyes throughout the night; or for those times when you are super duper tired and you can't wait to just land straight into your bed, but sleeping with makeup on is bad!

That's when the Micellar Cleansing Water comes in. You just need your cotton pads, soak them up with the cleansing water, swipe a few of them till your face is rid of makeup (you can even do this whilst lying in bed), throw the pads away (or just cast them on the floor and clear them tomorrow morning) and head straight to bed. Easy peasy eh?

Of course, the products in the Surprise Box doesn't end there, as you can see from above pic, there are tons of skin caring products for you to use or even try out.

With just 2 more days to the Lazada GSS Sale, I suggest that you start browsing and making a wishlist of the items too, as there will be discounts up to 90% off, flash deals every 2 hours.

And to make the deal sweeter, use voucher code GSSCHRISTINA18 to get an 18% Discount with no minimum purchase required (Discount will be cap at $8)

*For New Customers only

!!! Additional Bonus !!!

Additionally, if you buy any of the surprise boxes, remember to post an unboxing video of your Surprise Box on social media, hashtag #lazadasurprises, and stand to win more attractive prizes from Lazada.
