My Recommendation for Fashion Site

I am Fashion is one of my favorite fashion sites ever. The writers, which consist two of them, update the site very frequently, from Monday to Satuarday except special occassions (such as final examination periods.) In addtion to very up-to-date fashion, skincare and cosmetic information, the writers sometimes also some music and movie critics.

I like the site very mych not only because the writers always are able to provide very constructive tips and opinions on fashion and skincare but also a personal affiliation to one of the writers.

From reading the profiles of the writers, I notice that one of them, who calls herself as Harrods Girl are from Hong Kong, which is one hour by ship from my hometown. And many products she introduces in her site are bought from Hong Kong and suit Asian women very much. That makes the site very useful and close to me - products which normal American fashion sites introduce may not be very suitable to Asian girls like me, but I am Fashion is fantasic! I love it and check it out almost daily.

My Most Favorite Designer Ever

I make a slideshow about Celia Ho, who is a fashion design student as well as my very best friend. This slideshow will focus on her latest line, the Pirate Collection.

Avoid Grilled Food to Keep You Look Young

According to a report released in America recently, eating too many grilled food will not only lead to cancer but also will make you look older.

Scientists believe after meat is highly-heated, a poisonous element "AGEs" will be created. This poisonous element will lead to diabetes and problems in blood vessels and kidney, and these will lead to aging of human body.

Therefore, in order to keep skin looks younger, other than using lots of skincare products and putting on sunscreen (which is extremely important for the skin), people should also keep an eye on what they are eating.

OMG! I love them so much!

I will love and marry to the person who buys me all of them. (Just kidding, besides no one really wants to do that...)

Wood Heels for Summer

I always relate summer to picnic and beach times. Then I will think about shoes with wooden heels, which usually gives their wearers a leisure and natural look. Basically, wooden heels can be paired with almost everything except extravagant items like rock or metallic outfit. It goes with bohemian style particularly well.

Ways to Identify Your Skin Type

The reason of many women have bad skin is they do not understand their skin types and use the wrong skincare products. Somebody think they have dry skin but actually have combination. Therefore, the skincare product they use may make their skins even drier.

There are four types of skin: oily, dry, combination and sensitive. Recently, I read an article from the Allure magazine, and it offers an easy way to test what skincare one has is to use lakewarm water.

1. When you are not wearing makeup and have an hour to spare, pull hair back. Splash the face ten times with lakewarm water. Pat skin with a towel until it is damp but not dripping. Allow skin to air-dirt, and wait for 30 minutes without applying any moisturizer or makeup.

2. Stand in front of a well-lit mirror. Squint, furrow your frow and smile widely. If your face feels tight and itchy or appears flaky or ashy, you have dry skin. If you also frequently break out from skin-care products, you have sensitive skin. If neither, wait for another 30 minutes.

3. Press one ply of tissue over your entire face, and then examine the residue on it. If there are greasy patches from your forehead, nose, chins and cheeks, you have oily skin. If it is only oily down t-zone, you have combination skin.
