Hey Everyone! If you ask me what are my favourite Korean make-up brands, I will definitely say that one of them is Innisfree! Their products are amazing and affordable and walking into any of their stores is simply therapeutic. But, if you are short of time, online shopping is always a…
Hey Everyone! Apologies for my lack of updates, work and Bloom has been ultra busy lately and it’s been hard to keep up. I am however keeping to schedule on YouTube though so hope we can keep in touch more there. Today I’m happy to share with you a special…
Hey Everyone! Whenever Shu Uemura comes out with a new collection, I get excited! They’re always so fun and quirky and full of life! This time Shu Uemura paired up with Yazbukey to create this iconic pop collection and I can’t wait to share it with you. I was particularly…
Hey Everyone! Hello from London! I’m currently on my annual London trip to see my sister with my family and to enjoy this amazing place so apologies for my lack of updates. I’m also visiting a few other countries while I’m here, mainly Switzerland & France take advantage of the…
Hey Everyone! Happy Good Friday! I’ve been a crazy fan of LUSH since my university days and I’d often be found in the LUSH shop back in Melbourne Central taking home a mask or soap possibly every week! I’m in love with the very natural products and the homey just…
Hey Everyone! I love make-up collaborations – they’re fun, collectible and it’s always cool to see how a specific brand interprets an idea or concept. No other make-up brand does it better than M.A.C with I think probably hundreds of different collection collaborations under their belt. When it comes to…
Hey Everyone! These last few days, I have had the pleasure of trying out the brand new Kiehl’s Ultra Facial Oil-Free Skincare range! It will be out in June 2014 on Singapore shores and so far, it really is working for me in the oil control department. I thought I…
Hey Everyone! At the moment, I’m slowly expanding my Dior makeup collection and to be honest, I am really starting to fall in love. It’s probably the chic packaging and amazing line of products that they offer and I never really dived in until now. Today I’ll be talking about…
Hey Everyone! I’m in London! I’ve actually been in London for the past week and will be here for the rest of the month! It’s been a good year and a half since my last time here and to be honest right now, I really don’t want this holiday to…

Hey Everyone! Although Lancôme has always been a classic at every department store, I’ve never really tried products from them. I’ve got M.A.C, Bobbi Brown to Shu Uemura but I’ve never really touched Lancôme. I’m not sure why, so today here’s my haul of their new collection – Lancôme Show by Alber…
Hey Everyone! It’s always a good thing to hear about new products a little earlier than everyone else, especially when they haven’t hit the stores yet. So, here’s a new one for you – the Kiehl’s Powerful Wrinkle and Pore Reducing Cream (let’s refer to it as the PWPRC)! This new…
Hey Everyone! I think one of the challenges with starting any make-up artist career is building a kit. Not only do you need to get your shade, you need to be able to provide for everyone else’s. While you were opening your awesome Christmas presents, I was opening this. My…
Hey Everyone! When I first came over to London, I was excited to see pretty much two brands – Barry M and SLEEK. Sleek has always been written about in blogs, talked about on YouTube and after getting a Sleek Acid palette online a year ago, I couldn’t help myself…
Hey Everyone! I am so excited to share with you my make-up and fashion goodies that I’ve been “collecting” and getting here in the UK! I’m really into affordable drugstore or “high street” as they call it here brands because I know that these are the products that I can’t…
Hey Everyone! To be honest, the first time I saw Cetaphil was when it was stacked up in my parent’s bathroom. My Dad swears by the Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser which was recommended by his dermatologist for helping cure his skin condition at the back of his neck. He has…
Hey Everyone! Fancl to me has always been one of those brands I’ve wanted to try for so long, but never got around to doing it. From the super bright store lights, to the beautiful sales assistants dressed to the T, I’ve always been curious at what they had to…
Hey Everyone! Switzerland is probably known for chocolate, a stack of beautiful mountains and of course natural solutions for skincare. Ujene Skincare is an international icon from Switzerland made with only the finest and purest Swiss ingredients so when they contacted me, I couldn’t resist checking them out. In fact,…
Hey Everyone! I bet only a handful of us would go out wearing neon eye-shadow colors to go shopping. I raise my hand. Maybe it’s the fact that we think we look better in just neutrals but I think it’s probably more-so of what people would think of us. Illamasqua’s…
Hey Everyone! I’m down to my final week in Australia and although most of my make-up is packed up and bubble-wrapped and I probably swore to myself not to buy anymore, I came across these two babies and I couldn’t resist. But trust me, I do have a decent explanation…
Hey Everyone! To be honest, I never really wore lipstick until I went to uni. To me lipsticks were such a hassle. I couldn’t eat without eating some and they faded far too much. But little did I realize that it wasn’t particularly lipsticks as make-up items I didn’t like,…
Hey Everyone! Last month’s Vanity Trove was February – the month of love, pampering, sweet hearts and flowers. I can’t believe it’s already the second month of 2012, time flies super fast, like super bass. Speaking of super bass, VanityTrove has just sent out their February VanityTrove and as VanityTrove…
Hey Everyone! There’s just something about being 21 that makes you feel young, wild, and so free. They say being 21 is like finally wearing that dress you’ve always wanted to fit in or sky diving without your parents knowing. Nonetheless, it’s your prime time. Forever 21 has always been…
Hey Everyone! My friends say that halving an avocado and scooping it with a silver spoon into thy mouth is one of the best feelings for them in the world. It’s in our sandwiches, even in our sushi, and now it’s being bottled by Crabtree & Evelyn. But honestly, it’s no…
Hey Everyone! Valentine’s Day is coming! That day comes with either two daily agendas. Number one, prancing around with your dream date or boyfriend of however long, or number two, moping around with a bowl of popcorn and the latest chic flick on TV. But, what if we eradicated that…
Hey Everyone! I have some exciting news to announce! I’m ambassador! No, not ambassador of Singapore, silly (I wish). This post marks my first online ambassadorship with VanityTrove.com! I’m so excited. As their ambassador, I will be responsible for unveiling each month’s trove to you here on roseannetangrs.com. Plus, I’ll be holding…
Hey Everyone! Don’t you hate it when you just want to try a product but you don’t want to spend a hundred bucks buying the full-size? Story of my life. Don’t you wish you could just get a sample of the product? Well, thankfully, there are now websites like VanityTrove…
Hey Everyone! If Urban Decay had a football game, I would be one of those fans wrapped up in Urban Decay scarves and hoodies cheering through a purple megaphone on the sidelines. You can pretty much tell from most of my tutorials that I love Urban Decay. Their eye-shadows are…
Hey Everyone! I’m finally back in Singapore. I have no make-up on currently, I’m sitting out on the porch in tropical weather drinking an orangina and I’m pretty content. Nothing like a haul to celebrate. Sometimes I tell myself that I won’t be going shopping during exams because I need…
Hey Everyone! Exams are just around the corner and not only is it time to bring out the tim tams from the kitchen closet, highlighters and different colored pens out, but it’s also time to take special care of your skin. The minimal amount of sleep, the less than honorable…
Hey Everyone! Sometimes we should revel in the beauty of the night. It’s dark, mysterious and has a certain calm about it that leaves us thinking to say the least. One cosmetic line that revels in the mysteries of the dark is the brand Illamasqua, a well-known UK based beauty…
Hey Everyone, Thought I might just do a quick haul post in picture roll form! A few weeks back, Chadstone (a really big shopping mall here) had VIP night where all stores in the mall were about 15-20% off. Done with assignments, my friend and I made a quick trip…
Hey Everyone, Honestly, I’ve been on a hiatus, a willing makeup ban, for the past few months. I never really understood my hiatus and I blamed it on the fact that I already had enough makeup which isn’t a familiar excuse to be made by a beauty blogger. However, when…
Hey Everyone, Today, I’ll be talking about butter. Not really the kind you slathered on your pancakes this morning but rather the ones that The Body Shop makes which happen to be one of their signature products. The Body Shop Body Butters have been around for ages, and scented with…
Hey Everyone! I’m finally back in Singapore which means that I’m back to my default state – being a blogger. About a month ago, I did a swap with the lovely Eliza who runs a blog herself – (www.beautyjunkie.onsugar.com), you should totally check her out and tell her I said…
Hey Everyone! Honestly, I probably belong to the category that has never fully understood the BB cream craze. It seems like these well sought after make-up products have sprung up everywhere in Singapore and even foreign brands like Maybelline and Bobbi Brown have created BB creams to suit their Asian patrons. However,…
Hey Everyone, I don’t know about you but crazy as this sounds, I’m getting bored of higher end brands. I shouldn’t say that too soon I reckon but ever since I’ve caught myself falling in love with drugstore foundations and mascaras, I’ve been putting my foot down on unexplored drugstore…
Hey Everyone! I’ve had a horrible urge to shop lately and not the kind of shopping that can be quelled by a credit card or a web browser either, the kind that calls for paper bags and more than a bit of immediate satisfaction. So today was shopping day and…
Hey Everyone, I’m probably known for having close to nil in the winning department. No matter how many times I recite my number, I will probably never win that lucky draw. Probably one of the first weeks back, the lovely Sarah Chaudry (It’s her birthday today!! Happy Birthday Sarah!) (www.facesbysarah.onsugar.com)…
Hey Everyone! Like many of you, The Body Shop and I go way back. I grew up in an American International school and The Body Shop’s strawberry lip balm was a fad item amongst my 12 year old peers. At that time, it was the in-thing, along with the…
Hey Everyone! Bobbi Brown has always been to me one of those brands that I wish I could have everything from, but I know that it’ll be a heartache to fork out for. It makes you want to dilly dally around the counter, say “its okay, just looking” to the…
Hey Everyone! It’s time again to say goodbye to another year. I must say that 2010 was utterly fantastic – it was such a pleasure to meet some of you, get to know more companies, and even try a few more drugstore products. It’s always important to have memorable moments…
Hey Everyone! Welcome to roseannebeauty’s first edition of Blogshop Spotlight. This is just my little way of giving back to small blogshops or online arenas because I know very well how it was like trying to get my name out in this huge sea of online haunts. This is just…
Hey Everyone! Very recently, Dermalogica Australia sent me an email regarding a new skincare line called Clean Start. I was familiar with the line already from allthatglitters21’s video of her updated skincare routine in which she featured these products that were also given to her. When I saw the email,…
Hey Everyone, *Shopbop.com did not contact me for the following review, it’s not sponsored, totally my discovery and opinions about it. The current state of my favourite shoes could be equivalent to searching google images for “old, yucky, tearing flats,” and I’m sorry to bombard you with this image of…
Hey Everyone! I’m sure you’ve all heard the word “BB Cream” floating around, but in a sea of foundations, compacts and high end powders, we lose sight of what this ‘miracle’ asian sensation really is. No, it’s not a bird, toy or a plane, it’s just healthy makeup. I see…
Hello! This is a bit overdue on my terms but the first week I was back, I had a nice lunch with Virginia who distributes Leaders Clinic products to Singapore at Cedele (one of my favourite places to eat – Chicken and Wild Mushroom Soup to die for and their…
Hello! Beauty FYI: Elizabeth Arden 100th Anniversary Promotions – 9th – 15th July Elizabeth Arden is currently having their 100th Anniversary Limited Edition Sets currently selling like hotcakes at counters from the 9th to 15th of July and I must say these babies are adorable. I met up with Elizabeth…
Hello! I’m home, I nearly forgot how good the food is here. Roti Prata, Nasi Lemak, my mom’s cooking, onnomnom beats by far the sandwiches, hot chocolate and..more sandwiches that I had during Uni. It’s good to be back, but with any flight (which I got to ride for the…
