Time to show you my own challenge hair style!
With the Sunsilk Hair Styling Tool Kit within my reach now, I've been trying out new hair styles lately and I think it'll be great for me to show you how I've created one.
Everyone knows what a Waterfall Braid is right? I've always wanted to know how to create one but no matter how hard I try, I can't seem to make it perfect :/ It's really not easy creating one at all!! But after much research, I've found an alternative hair style for the Waterfall Braid.... It's the Waterfall Twist!!!
So pretty isn't it?? It's such a perfect hair style to wear out on a casual day out shopping with your girlfriends or for that sweet date with that special someone. Bonus point? It's WAY much easiest to create compared to a Waterfall Braid! And trust me, it's really not as complicated as it looks. All you need is a little bit of patient and perseverance! So here's how its done! :)
Step 1: Brush your hair
It is essential that you hair remains smooth and manageable throughout the process! Brush through to remove any knots or tangles :) You could straighten your hair with a hair straightener first to make sure it's really smooth too!
Step 2: Apply Sunsilk Hair Fall Solution Tonic
Keep your roots protected with Sunsilk Hair Fall Solution Tonic! It reduces excessive hair fall up to 10 times and keeps your roots strong and healthy. This way, you don't have to worry about losing more hair then you should while styling it in any way you want^^
Step 3: Take a large section of your hair from one side of your parting
Make sure that it really is a LARGE section. Failure to do so will result in further problems later on in the process. HAHA. Sounds so scientific huh?
Step 4: Part the section into 2!
Unlike a braid, you only need two small sections to make a twist :)
Step 5: Twist it!
Start off by twisting the two small sections. Just one section over the other, no specific direction is required! Here, I am taking the lower section over the upper section.
Step 6: Take another NEW section from your remaining hair
Like a Waterfall Braid, the Waterfall Twist is created by leaving behind a small section of hair between each twists. Therefore, the NEW section that you're taking at this point is THAT small section that should be left behind to create the "waterfall" effect.
Taking a new section.
Step 7: Leave the NEW section behind
As mentioned earlier, the NEW section that you've taken should be left behind between the twists like shown in the picture below.
Step 8: Twist Over!
Once the NEW section is secured nicely in between the two existing sections, twist them over again like what you did in step 5! Remember to ignore the NEW section that you've recently taken.
From here on, just keep repeating Steps 5 to 8 until you've reached the other side of your forehead!
Slowly but surely, your Waterfall Twist will start to appear!! :)
Step 9: Secure it with your favorite pin/clip!
Once you've reached the other side of your forehead, you've made it!! You did a Waterfall Twist so congratulations! hehehe. Now all you need to do is secure it nicely with a bobby pin for a classy finish look or jazz it up a little with your favorite clip!
Step 10: FLAUNT IT!!!
Now that you're done with your Waterfall braid, its time to take lots of pictures and show it off! hehe
I am so proud to be able to say that I actually did that Waterfall Twist all by myself! All thanks to the Sunsilk Freestyle Challenge, I am now really interested in learning new creative hair styles. hehehe. Why don't you guys try out some as well and share it with the world on Sunsilk's facebook page? :)
And once again, this wouldn't be possible without strong roots that can withstand all the tugging, teasing and nudging from hair styling. So don't forget to apply Sunsilk Hair Fall Solution Tonic to avoid excessive hair fall!
Thank you once again Sunsilk for sending me the Sunsilk Hair Styling Took Kit! Can't wait to share more great hair styles with everyone :) For more information, visit Sunsilk's Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/sunsilksingapore <3

It's that time of the year guys!! The night that every student is always looking forward to their entire school year; Prom Night!

Bejeweled Gown range
I am so in love with this range of gowns! Comes in 6 different colors for 6 different looks on its own! I really love the Blue one the most cause it really suited my skin tone. The fitting for this gown is perfect and its really comfortable and elegant yet sexy all at the same time! Another plus point about it is... YOU CAN WEAR IT A DIFFERENT WAY! Simply pin up the tail of the gown to change the entire dress to a short one and you're ready to party the night away after that!! Perfecto!

The apparels offered are brought in mainly from Bangkok, China, and Korean and each and every one of them has undergone quality checks by their team, before they reach to YOU. So you can be certain that quality at OOTD is never compromised."
If there's an online boutique to look out for, that would definitely be OOTD! Their collection never fail to put a smile on my face and I'd always have a tough time deciding which item to pick at the end of every shoot! They're getting better and better, and their upcoming new collection is GORGEOUS! Here are my picks^^
I really love this super versatile dress! You can wear it as an off-shoulder or as a tube dress as well. Its super sexy yet sweet at the same time and it'll be a perfect dress for a special date! Really comfy and fits me nicely too :) Comes in white as well^^
Next, I'd pick this gorgeous knitted top. Its not thick at all so it's still really suitable for the crazy weather in Singapore. I love the subtle plait details, makes it look pretty expensive actually. The quality is excellent and it's really versatile. Can't wait to rock it with a white shirt on the inside for school soon^^
Maxi dresses are amazing! They keep your looking really pretty with the least amount of effort needed! I absolutely adore this piece from OOTD, its gorgeous isn't it?! Really comfy and sophisticated. Great for that afternoon brunch date at your favorite cafe!
Here's the latest OOTD promo for October!!^^

3) Kissablebella
Recently did a shoot for Kissablebella and I just thought that I should share about the awesomeness of the stuffs I took home with me. The lovely owner of Kissablebella, Yvonne, never fail to ask me to take home some apparels with me after every shoot. And like always, I find it super hard cause everything's so pretty!! Anyway, here are my picks!^^
Florals, florals, more florals! That's what Kissablebella's all about! They offer loads of really pretty floral apparels and they're always all so pretty! Every collection is like a garden and my wardrobe's florals are all mostly from Kissablebella! It's so hard to resist taking home at least one floral top/dress all the time. This top is so pretty! Just look at the color and the prints! It's not out yet but it will be soon so keep a look out:)
It's that time of the year again! Time to throw out last year's knits and fill up your wardrobe with new ones! I LOVE this knitted top from Kissablebella! It's really unique and super comfy! Great for keeping yourself warm during those long boring school lectures. But it does look awesome with my sequin shorts doesn't it?^^ Once again not out yet but look out for it!
Pretty Rose 2 Way Top
Entire outfit here from Kissablebella! This two way top is gorgeous isn't it? The color and print is perfect! Really sweet but sexy at the same time. And it goes super well with almost anything! Here, I am wearing it with a pair of mermaid skorts from Kissablebella as well!
Kissablebella's stuffs sell out fast so be sure to check their site ASAP before more stuffs are gone.
SHOP AWAY!

I kinda identify LBR as the local NastyGal hahahaha. Anyway, here are my picks^^
Genie Embroided Peplum Dress *exclusive*
I would have totally worn this beautiful dress to Fashion Week if I could go :( It's perfect and really pretty isn't it? Fits me super well and the colors are just stunning! Looks really expensive too but it's so affordable! Its now open for backorders so get it ASAP!!! :)
Joaz Spag Top in White
Next, I pick this really unique spag top! It's super duper comfy and looks great on its own! I love apparels like this where you don't even have to put in much effort to look good! This is a really versatile must have item! Like I'd mentioned before, its basics, only better ;)
