Persian Rose Exclusive Black Box

Black Box has recently collaborated with Persian Rose [an established UK brand that just came to Singapore], to release the Persian Rose Exclusive Black Box.

Rosewater and rose oil are known for their exquisite romantic scent as well as their complex healing properties. I personally am a fan of rose skincare products, as they are tailored for sensitive skin. And, the rose scent is so soothing and therapeutic! 

Persian Rose products contain only the finest rose oil sourced from present day Persia - where the roses are handpicked at dawn and distilled with pure mountain stream water. The methods of farming and distillation have remained the same for centuries, producing a totally organic and authentic rose oil of unrivalled quality. 

The Persian Rose Exclusive Black Box contains:

  • Organic Rosewater Mist (100ml)
  • Rose & Aloe Vera Gel (10ml)
  • Rose Day Cream (10ml)
  • Rose Hand Cream (10ml)

Organic Rosewater Mist

Rose & Aloe Vera GelRose Day Cream, Rose Hand Cream

You can get the Persian Rose Exclusive Black Box - S$50 [worth S$65] HERE. Only 300 available!

Jo Malone London: A Season of Magic Christmas 2013 Collection

In a blink of an eye, it is nearing the end of 2013. And, Christmas is just 4 days away! I sound excited... but I am not. Well, I don't celebrate Christmas... yups, I'm boring like that (:

This year, Jo Malone London has decided to stay classic for Christmas. 

Immaculately wrapped Jo Malone London products in their signature (cream/black) boxes adorned with striped ribbons... what's not to love?


Blue Spruce Scented Candle (400g) - S$345

New (limited edition). A blend of green galbanum with woody notes of Atlas cedar and vetiver. Spiced with cinnamon on a warm, velvety base of patchouli and golden amber. Aromatic and elegant.


Pine Eucalyptus Scent Surround Diffuser (165ml) - S$140

Infuse your home with freshness for Christmas. A highly addictive, forest-fresh fragrance!


Cologne Collection (9ml x 5) - S$180



I WANT THIS!


Travel Candle Collection - S$170

Christmas Ornament - S$50

I didn't get to indulge in any of these festive goodies... :(

My first (and probably last) time making my very own Christmas wreath. It is so NOT easy. A great experience nevertheless. 

The (pricky) pine and eucalyptus, are the essentials for making the wreath.

Here's the final product (my masterpiece) after spending more than an hour on it. Hmm... tell me it looks good... pretty pls... hmm...


Anyway, I just received a lil' surprise from Jo Malone London today! Thanks for brightening up my otherwise moody day ❤

The beautiful Jo Malone London box contains travel-size goodies - Pomegranate Noir Scented Candle, Nutmeg & Ginger Bath Oil, Orange Blossom Body Creme. I'm particularly in love with the luxuriously scented body creme... it smells heavenly! Can't wait to use it (:
