Good Girl Carolina Herrera Review

It feels like Good Girl by Carolina Herrera has found its way into almost everyone’s collection—especially across TikTok. The iconic stiletto bottle certainly catches the eye; I’ll admit, it looks interesting and commands attention on any vanity. I’ve seen countless people calling it their signature scent, their all-time favourite. Naturally, I got curious. My expectations were high, though I couldn’t shake a bit of skepticism—after all, when something goes viral, it’s not always as magical as it seems.

There’s no doubt this perfume turns heads. Not just because of the bottle, but also because of the bold and seductive scent. Wherever I go, I always see someone wearing it, talking about it, or recommending it.

My Almond Butter Business | 100% Homemade

Nuts are one of my favourite superfoods, packed with healthy fats, vitamins, and minerals that do wonders for both physical and mental health. I became obsessed with almond butter when I lived in England for a few years. I’d stock up on jars from local brands made purely from roasted almonds—they tasted fantastic! Almond butter quickly became a daily staple, something I couldn’t live without.

Birkin Bangs, My New Hair!

Hi guys, I’m sorry I haven’t been here for a while. After losing my only dog, Happi, I felt so devastated and needed some time off from social media. Now I feel ready to write again and share with all of you.

Lately, I’ve been so inspired by Jane Birkin and decided to get bangs again after a long time. Looking at her old photos made me want to try the timeless "Birkin bangs." Jane Birkin was the ‘it girl’ of the ’60s, and her name even inspired the famous Hermès Birkin bag. Her bangs, known as Birkin bangs, remain one of the most popular styles in 2024—a classic everyone should try at least once.

Gabrielle Chanel L’eau The New Flankers | My First Impression 2024

Recently, I stumbled upon the new fragrance from CHANEL, a flanker of the iconic Gabrielle. From the moment I saw the ad, I had a feeling this scent was crafted with a younger audience in mind. It feels like a complete departure from the original Gabrielle, which intrigued me even more.

Perfume and Mental Health

Recently, I’ve been asked whether using perfume has benefits for mental health. As someone who has struggled with chronic mental health issues (which have recently become more stable), I’d like to share how something as seemingly simple as perfume can have an impact on our emotional well-being.

A little backstory: while living in England, I was diagnosed with several mental health disorders, including PTSD, severe anxiety, major depression, and three others. I share this to give context to my perspective, as I am someone who has experienced mental health disorders firsthand.

Am I ugly?

Since I was a kid, I always had insecurities bubbling inside me, like a poison that settled in my brain. Maybe it was because I was bullied as a child, or because of the comments from older people about my body. Growing up, we were close with the older gen, who somehow felt they had the right to point out how “ugly” we were or how imperfect we looked. It became so normalized that they did it all the time.

Why You Should Stop Buying Cheap Clothes

Did you know that clothing waste has become so massive that it’s causing a global environmental crisis? Fast fashion is a huge contributor, and it's nearly impossible to stop them from producing more. Although I don’t fully support fast fashion, I want to share a story that might offer some insight into why some people still buy branded clothes or go for preloved and thrifted items from a popular fashion brand.

My Favourite Penhaligon's Perfume *Discontinued*

Ever heard of Penhaligon’s? It’s a British perfume house that has been crafting exquisite fragrances since 1870. The brand, which has received a Royal Warrant from The Duke of Edinburgh, boasts a rich heritage that is truly impressive.

Skincare During Middle and High School

Since I started teaching at a high school, I often get questions about skincare. Unlike today, when I was in middle school, I could only access skincare information through TV ads or magazines. At that time, I asked my mom if I could subscribe to Kawanku and Gadis magazines. Initially, I saved up to buy the magazines, but eventually, because I loved reading them so much, my mom kindly subscribed to them for me, all for the sake of her first daughter's growth, haha.

I was only 11 years old, still naive, but my skin was flawless until I began ruining it myself, and it could never go back to the way it was.
