Right! I'm talking about it again and I'm very sure there are many of you are still curious about this topic because everyday when I check my blog statistic, I see people searching for keyword "Nose Filler treatment" and ended up in my blog. I guess, people are in hunger for this topic. Time to reveal the secret:

I've just had my jaw botox and nose filler done :D
It's awesome!

I know what your reaction is and I had the same reaction too 5 years ago. "OMG!" "Eww", "What?" or whatever it is. 5 years ago, when I read an article talking about some people getting botox or filler done to make them look younger, I used to criticize them and called them a cheater. I thought "OMG! It's so dangerous. It will damage your face in  long term" "Why do they need to do that?" bla bla bla....

Can't believe that 5 years later, I got my first botox & filler done and now I'm loving it. To clarify, I didn't eat my own words and become a cheater. I learned and had the right point of view about what is the true story behind the magical botox & filler.

Last 2 weeks, I went to Astique The Aesthetic Clinic to get botox injection for my square jawline and filler for my nose bridge. C'mon every girl wants to have oval-shaped face, big eyes, high nose and fuller lips like Angelina Jolie and there is nothing wrong with that. Unfortunately, not many girls are naturally born with all that. We need help!

Honestly, plastic surgery is one of the choices pop-ing up in my head time to time. Ok! You can say I'm talking crap because I have totally zero courage to do plastic surgery but I keep talking about it as if I'm gonna do it tomorrow, lolz. When I found out about botox & filler (through internet research), I was absolutely thrilled. Really? My square jaw can be reduced? My nose can be higher? OMG! It's like a dream come true.

I know, you guys probably still not believe that these things work, so for a better comparison, here is the photo before- after in case you want the proof 



Look at my chio V-shape jaw and my nose! I'm so in love :D Can you see the difference now? Botox and filler not only enhance your face features but also help to maintain your skin condition very well. Lot of my friends told me that my skin looks so glowy lately, so healthy and bright. I look prettier and they can't find out what did I do. How fun to play the guess game! :D
I'm sure there are tons of questions you would like to ask, below I'm gonna just answer you some of the most common ones:

1. How much does Botox/ Filler cost? Averagely should be from S$900- S$1800 for filler. Jaw slimming should be from S$400- S$500 depends on clinic. It doesn't hurt you to call to clinic and ask. My clinic Astique The Aesthetic Clinic contact +65- 6732 2801.
2. It looks painful, doesn't it? Absolutely no because numbing cream will be applied and you will feel numbed instead of painful :D
3. How long does it last? It last from 6- 8 months. For my case, I'm lucky because my first nose filler lasted up to a year :D
4. Does my face get swollen after that? Do I need to take medical leave? What? Medical leave? You can go out and party right after the treatment, lolz. No swollen face for me at all, not even bruises. To some people, there might be some needle marks or bruises on their face which can be covered by make-up. 
5. What is the difference between botox and filler then? Both can be used to reduce wrinkles and in combination to achieve the best result. The difference is filler is used to plump up facial features to get more volume while botox is to reduce and weaken the muscles. Don't ever use botox for your nose and filler for your jaw, lolz. 
6. My boyfriend doesn't allow me to do botox or filler even I really want to, what should I do? Find another boyfriend! It's your face and you have the right to do whatever you want to make you happy (make sure it's the right thing) and he is only allowed to give opinion NOT a decision. Can you imagine a life of having a demanding and arbitrary boyfriend/ husband and you can't do what you want to? Poor you. 
7. What do I need to prepare before going for treatment? Make sure you have done enough research about the procedure that you want to do, consult with doctor. Most important thing you need to prepare before the treatment is cash/ cheque/ credit card. :D

In summary, Botox & Filler are safe and suitable for all ages. If you really need to ask for more information, please call the clinic +65- 6732 2801. 
I'm gonna end this blog entry with some photos taken during the filming and treatment process. It's boring to read all the texts, I know.

I even made a video tutorial in case you wanted to watch:

For this look, you can wear wedges but i think high heels or pumps will give you extra credits for being stylish, sexy and professional.


You can choose to wear red accessories but I decided to go for gold instead because I don't want to be so overly accessorized.

3. Sexy Look.

You gotta be surprised if I say you can definitely be sexy with a basic white shirt. It's the matter of how you wear it





and a tube top. Amazingly enough, the tube top you are seeing above is from a basic white shirt that people say it's meant for boring people or waitress only. :D

 The bottom line is: Don't restrict yourself to any idea, concept. The amazing things always come from the most ordinary stuffs.

I hope this tutorial gives you some ideas and inspiration to work on your closet. Remember, BACK TO BASIC.

Good luck & see you soon.

Love,
Crystal

I know, it's super late, irrelevant topic and I'm super out-dated to write it as it's already the end of the second month of New Year now. I've been thinking of doing a Vlog about this entry to make it more interesting but I didn't have much time and because of that reason, it drags me 2 months to write it up. Anyway, since it's a must- have a topic, I can't run anywhere neither pretend to forget about it. So here I am, slowly recalling everything happened to me in 2011.

If you follow my blog long enough, you know I usually write "Planning & Prediction" post before every New Year. Last year, I predicted many things.  and to my surprise, many things did happen as I predicted. So this year, I'm predicting again, in the future I might quit my current job and open a Fortune Telling business. Lolz.

Let's take a look back at 2011 and see what I've achieved so far.

1. Career.

I thought it was a bad year for me, but turned out it was absolutely good beyond my expectation. There were some difficulties along the way, but no matter how difficult they were, I overcame those challenges. I also won 2 awards for my work performance last year. What can I say? 2011 was my super fruitful and productive year at work. 

And amazingly enough, my dream holiday trip to the US came true. I've been always wondering when would I be able to put my first step on American land and at when I wasn't expecting the most, the boyfriend took me to his home to visit his family. I went to Arizona and Los Angeles with him.




and the paradise of shopping in Beverly Hills, Rodeo Drive. LA weather was simply beautiful. 

OMG! I've just done an amazing job :D

Remember about my previous post, I talked about my passion where I'm gonna dance, film and make a dress? It's finally HERE! My first DIY (Do It Yourself) fashion tutorial which I will show you how to make a very beautiful and sexy dress from a very simple outfit.

It took me more than 3 weeks to finish every thing from cutting, sewing, filming and editing. If I could stay at home whole day and do this, it wouldn't take much that time i think. Anyway, looking at the final result, I'M EXTREMELY EXCITED!!!  Seriously! It's like a big thing ever to me. :D

So this is the first video I made, there are still many mistakes here and there but hope you guys enjoy watching it and do give me some feedbacks, love- hate comments or whatsoever.

For now, please watch the video:
