As I was half way through my Tokyo trip, I got a last minute invitation to experience an amazing Japanese beauty brand, uka. And I'm so happy I did! It was definitely one of the best nail treatments I've had. 

這趟來到東京，有幸得到體驗全方位沙龍 uka 的機會。有趣的是，此次合作非常臨時，幾乎是到離開前一天才拍板定案。不過，我倒認為這地利之便來得正是時候；一個多小時美甲服務也是我近期遇過最好的。一起來看看吧！

If you've ever read my skincare posts, you know I absolutely love using oils. Oils are my favourite skincare remedy. 

在之前的文章中有提到，我特別鍾愛油類保養。他們不僅是最佳的滋潤保養，天然精油的香氣更是舒適宜人。

Despite the fact for not being around my family much, I was lucky enough to be surrounded by so many role models throughout the years, and it was them who shaped who I've become and what I want out of life. And now looking back, I found a significant pattern when it comes to listing out these role models. I was solidly inspired by independent women. Those who were not afraid to raise opinions, and those who knew how to invest in themselves. 

My mum is my mentor of pampering. I distinctly remember, as a kid, I used to sit on the high chair of beauty counters, witness how she finds the perfect product for herself.  She may not be the fanciest person the planet, but she definitely knows what suits her. My mum is her own stylish woman. 

我的母親十分懂得照顧自己，對保養從不馬虎。她不花俏，卻清楚地知道自己適合什麼。記憶中，小時候一家人到日本旅遊，吳小姐總會在百貨專櫃停留，而我就被抱上一旁的高腳椅等著，靜靜地觀察，揣摩她如何挑選適合自己的產品，幻想自己長大做著同樣的事。

A self-proclaimed sucker for the easy way out. Bobbi Brown is a life hack I've been missing out since...forever. Of course, I've heard amazing things about the brand, but most of them sounded too good to be true. So I've stayed away...until now.

以一個二十多歲的女子來說，使用過的彩妝品實在不算多。不如保養那樣費心注意，一直以來都十分忠實，同樣的產品一再回購。梳妝台上的化妝品幾乎都來自同一品牌，很少更換。開始接觸彩妝算一算也有兩年多，卻是第一次自發性的在 Bobbi Brown 櫃前停下腳步。實在相見恨晚。
