Do you know how much first impression matters? When it comes to a job interview, image is of utmost importance. The way you presented yourself during an interview can possibly leave a deeply etched memory in your employer's mind. That's the first impression of you captured by them.

When it comes to defining "impression", it's not about the appearance(in terms of facial looks), but rather the image you portrayed. How well are you able to carry out yourself? Definitely, companies are looking out for X-factors in employees. The confidence level that one exudes is going to be a bonus point. Aside to that, appropriate attire is paramount as it upholds one's image and credibility. It goes to show that one takes the job and interview process seriously and on top of that, it shows the RESPECT to your employers.

Hence, it's better to DRESS UP than down.

Some of the Dos and Don'ts we have to take particular note

You can refer to the article

NOTE:

Prevview.com has officially declared a Visume war In Singapore. You may be wondering, what's this Visume War ALL ABOUT?!?

Have you heard of the Visume War Battle?

Unlike any other video showdown, this war appeals to every jobseeker's most basic struggles, allowing one to stand out from the sea of jobseekers with similar talents and credentials.

Calling upon interested participants between the age of 18-35 years old, this is one great opportunity for you to enter this professional field battle, showcase your talent via this platform.

Fret not, you're not the first one to do so! Many have participated in this war zone. Check out one interesting Visume below.

As seen from the above video, John may appear to be an Ah Beng, well, but he sold us with his dead pig. First and foremost, let's talk about his attire. First impression of him judging from his attire is pretty good as he is smartly dressed in this video resume. Although some of his actions appeared to be typical "Ah Beng" of that in Singapore, he managed to pull it off with his confidence level. Secondly, he is able to prove himself to his employers with his experiences, dedication and degree attained for Finance & Economics and i feel that John has good interpersonal skills which will aid him in this job. However, one thing to note is if John gets the job, he will have to take special note to some of his actions which people still see him as an Ah Beng. He has to further improve on that.

Can you perform better than him?

There are few more good Visumes as seen from the war zone site. One simple entry caught my attention. Under most viewed, we've one participant Daniel Ho Sheng who is able to exude the confidence as seen from his Visume. Despite not much of a creativity in filming and editing, i can see his professionalism and with his eloquence, i believe he will be able to handle the PR and communication line if he's IN for this job.

Apart from having the most important factor - CONFIDENCE, sometimes, a little creativity will just do the trick if you're someone who's into the creative line(eg. advertisement companies). I'm sure they need potential people who are able to develop their creativity in this career line.

You can also view directly as seen from the above print screen page- war zone (view entries) for other participants' visumes.

This is one rare opportunity not to miss! The chance has been given, it's up to your own calling now! As mentioned earlier, Visume War on Prevview.com serves as a platform for you to showcase your hidden talents. Step forth and bravely express your self. You might be the ONE companies are in search for.

The smarter skincare

Sponsored Review

It's been quite some while since i last reviewed on a sponsored product. Today, I've got some awesome stuffs for you all. They're none other than these two bottles of serums, namely Viccal and Hanamei. These skincare products were sponsored to me to try out for 1 whole month. After 4 weeks of continuous usage, i'm all ready to introduce these two serums to you all, netizens.

READY?!?

Let's get started!

There are a total of three collections for this VICCAL serum. I was given viccal serum 2.11(Detoxify & heal) as requested to test try for one whole month. A brief description of this viccal serum 2.11 product here: It is a calming serum which delivers detoxifying benefits to repair and renew skin's condition. On top of that, it also helps to reduce the appearance of inflammation and diminishes the visibility of pores over time, improving skin texture naturally.
You've got to choose the smarter skincare which suits your skin condition. I personally requested for this serum 2.11 for intially i felt that it will be a good try to experience the effects brought about by a serum which will first detoxify and then heal. Yes, i was not wrong after 4 weeks of continuous usage.

As we all know that there is bound to be toxics in our body. The reason for pimples outbreak could possibly be due to the toxics in our body. As the name of the viccal serum 2.11 goes - Detoxify & Heal. You will first undergo detoxification before the healing process. During the detoxification process, there is slight pimples outbreak on my face. I understand that it is irritating upon seeing pimples on your face, however FRET NOT, 'for the later part of the day is the healing process. After 1 month of usage, i noticed that my face is smoother with smaller pores. On top of that, there are also lesser blackheads. Although there are still slight pimples on my forehead, however this is inevitable as our body is constantly removing toxics. I believe with continuous usage, i will be able to see even more visible results!

This viccal serum is also recommended for skin conditions prone to breakouts, acne, mild eczema, blackheads, whiteheads and oil seeds. If you're experiencing such skin conditions, do give this serum a try!

As seen from the above photo, the viccal serum is similar to that of an iodine solution. Lightweight and convenient for you to bring along when overseas too!

Direction of use:Apply 3-4 drops twice daily after cleansing and before moisturising.

Check out my before and after photo.

My skin is smoother and of more radiance now.

Next up, i'm going to introduce you another product known as Hanamei.

This is a Hair Removal After-care Brightening Serum. It contains multiple botanical actives that help minimise ingrown hair while lightening skin that has been darkened by hair removal and micro-abrasion. This serum also moisturises skin to maintain smoothness and suppleness.
I believe this is one good purchase for most girls out there. Girls will find it annoying to wear sleeveless if they do not shave their underarms. You wouldn't want your image to be ruined if others spot your unshaved intimate areas like your underarms when you raise up your hands. Therefore, it is important to look presentable in front of others. After shaving/waxing, this hair removal after-care brightening serum can help to brighten the darken areas at your underarms, elbows and even suitable to be used on your kneecaps.
Overtime, you'll be able to see the results for yourself. And that is of course, smoother and fairer skin. Now you look good in front of others and this might possibly boost your confidence too.

Direction of use: Gently pat a few drops on the desired areas after cleansing. To see even more visible results, use twice daily and massage until serum is fully absorbed into skin.

Where can you purchase them?

Viccal: You can choose to call/email prior to orders or enquiries here.
Viccal is currently stocked at these two clinics. Check them out here.

Hanamei: Dial 6343 0157 for orders.

Thank you thesamplestore.sg, viccal and hanamei for this sponsorship!
That's for now.

Pamper yourself with Love More Mask

Sponsored Review

Parcel came knocking at my door not long this month. Feeling elated upon receiving my couriered parcel 'for i'm sponsored with Taiwan's Love More masks by samplestore this time round. Yesh!!!! Masks are girls' best friends, especially during this period when Chinese New Year is on its way! I'll definitely want to keep my face in tip top condition to welcome this new year! I'm so glad i'm actually sponsored with masks. You came just at the right time!


Have you heard about the highly raved facial masks from Taiwan? They're known as Love More Mask, which also comes in 3D form. Love More is one of the best selling brand in Taiwan at current.

I was lucky enough to be sponsored with three different boxes of Love More Mask, namely Alps Spring & Phytoncide Moisturizing mask, Provence Lavender nighttime whitening mask as well as Rose Crystal & Tourmaline Peptide Moisturizing Duo Lifting mask. Endorsed by Taiwan's actress -Tiffany Hsu Wei-ning 许玮宁. If you've watched Autumn's concerto《下一站幸福》, you'll know that she is one of the main actresses in the show.

Tiffany Hsu Wei-ning

Apart from this Love More Taiwan endorser, we also have Love More Hongkong endorser, Kary Wu, who gave good comments on these masks.

Kary Wu 吳雨霏

As quoted from Kary's blog, she mentioned this "To babes who want to become prettier, let us enjoy "LOVE MORE MASK's" Magic!!"

Fantastic isn't it?!

I can't wait to try them out and see the effects for myself!!!

Today, i'm going to recommend these two masks to you, of which are my preferred ones among the three.

First and foremost, is this Provence Lavender Nighttime Whitening Mask. This lavender mask helps to relax your skin during the night time and maximizes your skin's blood circulation.

The key attributes of this product are:

• Whitening and Brightening
• Supple feel
• Oil-control
  

Directions of use:

1. Fit the mask onto your face
2. Remove the mask after 15-20 minutes
3. Pat your skin lightly to allow remaining residue to be absorbed.

When first applied, the mask was actually tight fitting but there wasn't any discomfort. It is just nice to cover the entire face. There's quite a lot of essence so you can leave for absorption after removing the mask. I could feel it rejuvenating its effect on my skin. I'm definitely feeling more refreshed after using it. For just once, i'm already seeing effect to my skin. Rather instant effect, i would say. My skin is now smoother, fairer due to the whitening effect. On top of that, it's good at oil control too. Love the whitening effect♥♥

Next, i'm recommending you this 3D mask. I've never tried 3D masks before, hence, it was rather an exciting first attempt for me, tsktsk!

This 3D mask comes with ear hooks and it covers not just only your face, but also part of your neck. It's definitely tight-fitting with the hooks.

The key attributes of this product are:

• Brighten dullness skin
• Enhance moisture level to your skin
• Promote collagen synthesis, increase skin elasticity

Directions of use:

1. Fit the mask onto your face.
2. Pull the hooks at the two sides to your ears.
3. Pull the hook at the chin up to your ears.
4. You can massage your face while waiting for your mask for 15-20 minutes to maximise absorption.

I love this piece of 3D mask too! Similar to the previous one, it rejuvenates its effect on me instantly. It brightens my skin and enhances the moisture level in my skin. My skin is now smoother and fairer! Due to this tight-fitting mask(with the additional ear hooks), it also has this lifting up effect which i feel it's a plus point!

Love More mask also comes with good packaging. Just look at the packaging alone for individual piece! So sweet and kawaii!!!

If you're interested in purchasing this Love more mask from Taiwan, it's available exclusively in Watsons.

Price of Love more mask:
3D Mask (5 pieces) - $ 8.90
Mask (5 pieces) - $7.90

Now i'm ALL READY for CNY!!!

Shoo away, blackheads and dark circles!

Sponsored review

Have you ever fret over your own skin condition by making complaints about your blackheads or dark circles?! I believe most girls must be concerned with this most important feature - FACE. Yes, it is everything to us! It's not the thing about looking good, but rather, how to keep your face in good condition. Ginvera had earlier sponsored me two products -(Ginvera Green Tea Marvel Gel & Ginvera Green Tea Jade Eye Roll Away) to test on them. Here i am, to fill you guys in more about the effectiveness of these products.

This is the Ginvera PR kit sponsored to me!

Firstly, let's start off with 一步骤 零黑头! (This tagline sounds familiar huh?!)

3 main efficacies:

Apart from these 3 main efficacies, there are also 7 other benefits to it. More importantly, those are the three highlighted ones:)

(This is how it looks like inside.)

For those who've yet to try this particular product, you must be wondering whether this Ginvera green tea whitening marvel gel works wonder. And so, i am here to share with you guys about the effectiveness of this product. Personally, i feel that my face is rejuvenated after using this Ginvera green tea whitening marvel gel. After trying out this product for a couple of days, i could see the instant improvements made to my face. As mentioned earlier under one of the efficacies, it helps in removing blackheads easily in just one step. Yes, it did. Another part which i like about it is that it also helps to keep a shine-free complexion. Who wouldn't want a shine-free complexion and zero blackheads at this age?! haha. Therefore, it's VERY IMPORTANT to take good care of your face!

Note that skintone is lightened. (I tried applying this to my hand to show you the outcome.)

You'll witness smoother, finer and fairer skin that glows with radiance.

Direction of use (Ginvera green tea whitening marvel gel):

• Squeeze a sufficient amount and dot on forehead, cheeks, chin, nose and neck.
• Massage about one minute.
• Rinse off with water/facial cleanser after use.

Note: Use daily on dry face with dry fingers.

Definitely, removing blackheads alone is not enough. i believe most of your must also have experienced dark circles problem just like myself. Ever since i stepped foot into junior college, i started burning mid-night oil having to juggle with both studies and cca. Having said that, that period was also when the dark circles set in. So, you could imagine how thankful i was to receive that sponsorship which consists of the Jade Dark Eye Circles Roll Away from them! Yes, it's YOU, something i really need now!

Efficacies


Check out the direction of use:

Personally, i'm a satisfied user of this Ginvera Jade Dark Eye Circles Roll Away product. It has this cooling effect when applied around the eye contour area. After using it for a couple of days, i can see visible results to my dark circles. As you can see in the before-and-after photo below, my dark circles diminished slightly over a short period of time.

Now, check out my before and after photo after using both Ginvera green tea whitening marvel gel & Ginvera green tea jade dark eye circles roll away!

I'm most concerned with my dark circles and i'm glad that Ginvera Jade Dark Eye Circles Roll Away shows instant result!

I believe no one wants "PANDA EYES"! So, let's get rid of our irritating dark circles!

Price of product?
Ginvera green tea whitening marvel gel: $16.80
Ginvera green tea jade dark eye circles roll away: $18.90

Liese gives your hair a new look!

Sponsored Review

This isn't happening! I couldn't believe my luck:) Recently, i signed up for a challenge on facebook and to my surprise, i was one of the 100 lucky bloggers chosen to participate in this Liese Bloggers' Challenge! Wheeee! Saturated with happiness upon receiving this piece of good news from the samplestore.
The parcel was couriered right to my doorstep. (How efficient of samplestore to do so in less than two days' time!!) I was sponsored with 1 hair treatment + 1 hair styling product by them to test and review on.

Here's a zoom-in image of the two liese products sponsored by thesamplestore.
The blue one is the liese clear cube wax and the pinkish "spray" bottle is the liese juicy shower!

If you're one with frizzy and dry hair, fret not. Your problem can be solved now. Liese is here to your rescue. Ever since i started using this product one and a half weeks ago, I'm beginning to see better improvements to my hair. In particular to the liese juicy shower which helps to tame my frizzy hair. Initially there were damages done to my hair after frequent rebonding and dye. Even the normal conditioner itself which i've been applying all these while doesn't help much in taming my hair. However, after using liese juicy shower, it leaves my hair frizz-free over a longer period of time. With that i do not have to worry about having frizzy and dry hair during phototakings.

Another part which i like best about this juicy shower is that it gives off a pleasant berry scent when sprayed. Not only does it quenches my dry hair and smoothens my frizziness, my hair also becomes smoother overtime.

Have you guys ever tried styling your hair before? If i didn't remember wrongly, i did try styling my hair back in my younger teenage years purely out of fun. That was a few years back. After rebonding, i hardly even do so for fear of spoiling my hair since rebonded hair is already straight. When i was first introduced to liese clear cube wax, i had this impression that it is similar to those kind of wax outside whereby it's sticky and it makes your hair hard after applying so as to keep it in shape. I detest those gel and wax whereby they've a sticky feel after use and the worst part of it is if one were to style wrongly at first attempt, he/she will have to spend so much time to clear them off your hair. Liese clear cube wax is a different thing. It has a non-sticky feel which i like best about it. It is so easy to style and the wax helps to tame your hair by leaving it frizz-free and straight whole day. Not only that, it also gives off a fruity scented smell. With that, i wouldn't mind styling my hair every now and then.

Liese juicy shower and Liese clear cube wax are my best partners now. They're what which i really need now to help maintain my rebonded hair. Frizzy and dry hair, off you go!

Halt! This is not the end of the post because next up, i'm going to show you a step by step hair treatment and styling tutorial with regards to the usage of Liese juicy shower and Liese clear cube wax.

CHECK THIS OUT!

That's with the Liese treatment and styling hairstyle tutorial. Hope you've enjoyed the video♥
