    1191. Blog2u

    Jeslyn Tee Jeslyn Tee says:

    The newest blog advertising site. Works to link bloggers and advertisers set up by Paddy Tan who is also the founder of Bak2U, an anti-theft software. Fixed fee of $3 per advertisement.

    Pro>
    Fast and friendly customer service. Usually reply to emails within the day. Stress that bloggers would not be penalised if they reject the ads.

    Allows blogger to choose to accept the advertisements as some layout may not allow the advertisements to be put up. If possible and advertisers allow, there will be different sizes of advertisements available for choosing.

    Recently goes into per post advertisements which should be more popular among bloggers.


    Con>
    $3 for a month of banner advertisement is rather little. This means that there is limited advertisements matching as there is only this much space for putting banners.

    I had my first Brazilian Wax today! Yes I was a Brazilian Virgin at Strip @ Raffles. I was really apprehensive at first.. I mean who wouldn't be when someone's staring at your nether regions.

    They have two sorts : The Soft Wax and the Hard Wax (if I didn't hear her wrongly)

    I chose the Hard Wax. It's slightly warm when smoothed onto the skin and hardens after a while. Then the lady will pull the hard wax off with all the hairs in it. She did it a few times and TADA it was pretty clean! Then she used the soft wax (cloth) to take the finer ones out and finally she tweezed the hard to reach places. It was all done in 15 minutes. Great speed and she was very professional, giving me some warning when it's off places that will hurt and asking me to breathe normally. She was all smiles and so were the other people in the place!!

    It cost me $60 for that session. If you picked soft wax it would be $46. I signed for the $380 package which has $480 credit to begin with. More waxing for me!! :)

    **For obvious reasons there aren't photos attached to this review since the photos that matter cannot be posted. :P

    1193. Kiehl’s (Vivo City)

    Bobo Bobo says:

    I was at Vivo for some window shopping and dropped by at Kiehl's which is located near the taxi stand. It's well-known for their quality skincare so I decided to give it a try.

    Once I stepped in, I was greeted with smiles but there wasn't any hounding. The staff stayed at a reasonable distance, ready to help when it is called for. That I did, and Ms. Joey Huang immediately appeared. I told her I was looking for a good moisturizer for people with sensitive skin. She asked some basic questions about my lifestyle and recommended me two types. After advising me on the benefits and differences between the two, she also showed me the different sizes available. What I liked was that she wasn't pushy about asking me to take the biggest bottles and such.

    After paying, she also gave me 4 sachets of samples to try as I had told her that I was apprehensive about buying new products thanks to my sensitive skin. The service provided was definitely good.

    The product I bought:
    Creme de Corps - The Original Rich Nourishing Cream
    250ml for $54
    Its yellow colour made me think that it was very thick at first but it came out watery. Once on the skin, a 20 cent dollop managed to cover quite a bit of area. As my skin is pretty dry, it was absorbed fast and didn't leave any greasy after-feeling. In fact, the area was immediately softer (slightly). I've applied it thrice since and my skin doesn't feel as parched as usual. Thanks to its texture I think this would last me about 1 and a half months which I find reasonable for its price.

    Pros:

    Known for the nice bread that is free flow. Crispy crust and very very soft inner portion. Real nice.

    Cons:
    Poor customer service. Slow in serving. Even a basket of fries takes 30 mins. My friend made her order and its only after 10 mins that someone came over to tell her its not available. Since the waiting time for that period is 30mins, she have to wait extra long just to eat something. No response from the waiters there and when finally we got a person's attention, she gave us a blank look when we ask for plain water. She proceeded to clear the table and we proceeded to get our own plain water refills!

    Edited on 01/05/08

    went for the 2nd time today as we decided to give this place another chance. Well, we won't be going for the 3rd time as this place totally disappointed us.

    We ordered Peppered Fish Linguine, Grilled chick, Sirloin Steak completed with set meals and the chicken Salad.

    Peppered Fish: Well, I didn't taste any pepper in the fish and fish consisted of thick flour coated dory. As can be seen from the pics, oil seems to stand for most of the ingredients.

    Sirloin Steak and grilled chicken: Meat were tender but lacking in the natural taste. Sauce served with the meat didn't seem to go well with them. Carrots that were served with the meat tasted like they were cooked in sugared water.

    Salad: Chicken is well done, marinated and tender. In comparison, the vegetables were not fresh enough to taste good.

    Jeslyn Tee Jeslyn Tee says:

    Pros:

    A private hair salon at Bugis Village. Personalised service as there is at most 2 customers at a time. Yuki goes by word of mouth and appointment only. She not only does your hair well, she also gives reviews of hair products when you ask her for opinion. She based her work more on your likes and dislikes and from there, helps you with what look best on you. Does free lance make up and hairdo. Great quality too~ She did hair and make up for my wedding dinner and I've received only compliments for it. Gives privildge cards to regular customers

    Cons:

    Place difficult to find. Only cash payments


    Moved to Tanjong Pagar In Nov 08

    Pros:

    Excellent site with handpicked, handcarried bags, cufflinks, mirrors and other accessories.

    Although a tad to the expensive side, the items are unique and not seen on other blog stores.

    Excellent customer service as the owner/co owner would answer questions promptly, bring you your item (purchased) as well as 3 other items that you are interested in for your review. No obligations at all.

    Discounts when you help them advertise.

    Cons:

    Lack of descriptions on the website and detailed pictures. Too many graphics that makes the site looks cluttered.

    Excellent store~ excellent ice cream~ Yum~! Yes we at the west is so lucky cos there's a store right at jurong point~! I simply loved the chocolate flavour, Mango and soursop flavour~

    Yes~ soursop! with fruit bits inside.

    Too bad this flavour is not available 24/7. Its seasonal since they are using real fruits as part of their ingredients.

    There is also watermelon flavour, green tea and mango~!

    I loved to buy their package of 2 flavours where I will choose either chocolate and soursop or chocolate and mango. The combination is simply heaven. It taste even better when you mix the 2 flavours.

    Nice environment, need to go early else there will be a long queue at the door. Comfortable seats though abit cramped.

    Good customer service.

    Nice food although the quality of the food is changing periodically, I guess a change in chef ba.
    Loved the "shui jiao mian" (dumpling noodles) although the noodles doesn't taste much but the dumplings are nice.

    Especially introduce the french toast with peanut butter and margarine. Definitely my favourite in that cafe~

    Excellent service. Excellent food.

    Had the black pepper chicken set lunch. Portion big and tasty however its sweet and lack of black pepper flavour. For people who prefer stronger taste would not like the dish. However, the set is value for money. It consist of Chawanmushi, tofu, miso, rice with corn/pumpkin croquettes and hot plate black pepper chicken @ $16.90

    Very nice dessert esp fruit sorbet.
