Air Connection: Treating every aircon with tender loving care

247570_418565211574601_1832133427_n
Do you know that your air-con at home has to be maintained at least once a quarter?
This is to ensure:

  1. Cleaner and Healthier Air
  2. Better efficiency (which means cheaper bills too!!!)

Dad was particularly happy about this review because he is the air-con quarterly handyman at home. So when he heard Air Connection was coming down, he was extremely cheery as he had one more strike-off his house chores list! Haha.
And Dad, thinking he is Mr Know-It-All did supervise the cleaning for a while on false pretext on photographing on my behalf. He wanted to make sure the technicians were really doing their work. And halfway, Dad decided they exhibited good professional services up to his satisfaction and wandered off for grocery marketing instead.
Clean
Note how the removal of the dust balls after cleaning and servicing of my house air con!
For the review, Air Connection kindly checked the wire connections for safety issues as well as the cleaning of the blades. They also checked my compressor. I realised sadly that the air-con in my room is going to spoil in due course. But I greatly admired the way they did not hard-sell their products. I sort of expected the technician to convince me to change the whole system.
Instead, he advised it wasn't economical to change the air-con since it was old and was pretty much working fine apart from the noisy growling sound it made when on. He just told me to use it till to death do us part.

And I have to say their technicians shows real dedication to their work. They were on time (early in fact). They had no qualms about answering my a bit silly questions sometimes. I was eager to know more and they were quick to educate. Also when told I had actually 4 air-cons in the house, they just gamely offered to clean all 4! And did in within 30 minutes. Quick and good!
Climb out
And one of the technician even climbed out my window to check the compressor!!! I know even now you are impressed with Air Connection!
Oh ya, and random knowledge of the day: the pressure has to be at 60 to be healthy at least for both my compressor which they were. Haha :)

Keep your cool through the scorching heat with the help of Air Connection now! I had a super cool and breezy sleep that night!
I have linked their Facebook. So go check them out and the other reviews by other bloggers :)

Pretty Little Things Part 2

Hip Hip Hooray, it is time for Pretty Little Things Part 2. This time, I have 3 wear-ables sites to share with you people. Hope you like it.
Milta Moda
If you are in for rainbow coloured apparels with hand woven or hand embroidered embellishments then you are in luck. The goods at Milta Moda are all handpicked, through fair trade by blogger Dus and her husband in Mexico.
I don't think we see much of such designs in Singapore. I personally am a huge fan of the handwoven friendship belt since you can wear it on your head or even on your waist. Really versatile!
RI
And if you are into supporting local brands, Rock Indigo is a new company set up by Singaporeans based in Melbourne. They are currently offering free shipping worldwide if you spend up to 80 dollars. And for my readers, you can get a 15 per cent discount for all items! Yeah!
Bags
Love bags? I think you will love this site! Although they don't have too great a selection, the bags that they hold currently are very trendy and pretty. I started trying to select the top 3. After that, I just gave in to temptation and had to stop myself from highlighting every bag Haha!
dresses
I tried compiling their dresses too. And I came to this realization I love their stuff! And there was really no point in compiling something if you are going to put everything in it. If they had a brick and mortar store back in town, I would have went there and whored myself in all their apparels and accessories. Haha :)
Also they do have a collection of boys and girls apparels. I sort of checked them out too. Guess I am interested what Little Me could wear one day. :)

Lastly, be prepared to feast your eyes on something sensual. Under the root is by far one of my favourite intimate label. The designs are so whimsical, so fantasy-like, the inspirations inspired by fables.
Whether it is lingerie, loungerie and boudoir accessories, you are bound to find something you like. And their photos and choice of models is just fantabulous! I think I am in love. Hopefully, you are too :)
UTR
I guess we have come to the end of our PLT Part 2. Till next time,we will see more interesting brands. *Winks*

Flawless has many Faces: Laura Mercier

LM_F13_Flawless Face
I managed to get myself invites into the  Laura Mercier's Flawless Face MasterClass. I am now one step closer to becoming a man-made beauty! Yipee!
I must be the most clueless student there because I don't usually put on make-up during off days. Actually sometimes, I don't put on at work too. There were a lot of first time moments. But it was worth it because I finally know the steps to flawless make-up without damaging my sensitive skin.
Being kind as usual, I am going to share with you the secret. :)

I know a lot of people don't really use Primer. But today, I have learnt  that primer acts as an invisible layer to protect the tiny powder from entering our pores. It also absorbs the make-up better, allowing the make-up to stay colour-true all day. :)
Possibly the must-have product of the day. It doubles up as a sunscreen as well as a BB cream.
Next in line is the concealer. The face concealer is really good cos you can blend the colour until the correct shade before applying on your face. I have really dark eye rings so I was recommended another concealer for the eyes.
The last and final step to having a lasting make-up all day! :)
Make Up
My favourite product ever! You just have to put on one colour on your eyelids and you can create a gradient of colours as though as you have a whole palette of colours! Talk about value for money. :)
Anyway as you are putting on your eye shadow, you are supposed to draw tiny semicircles (not greater than your eye sockets) on top of you eyelids. And end it off at your last eyelash so that you won't have droopy eyes.
I love mascara. I think every woman love mascara. It makes your eyes pop and you will have eyelashes like Tweety. OMG! I just freaking love mascara although removing is a real chore. Bleh.
Remember to smile when you put blush on the apple of your cheeks!
If you don't put any make up, it is a must to swipe some colours on your lips. Just a coloured lips would brighten the whole face!

Tada~~~ You will end off with a gorgeous face like this! I ended up looking so au naturel my BF can't really tell the difference. It is quite upsetting when he is so oblivious! Oh wells...haha
