My Bitchy Resting Face

 Hi my lovelies hope you have all had a good weekend. Here in Malaysia we have been enjoying a nice long weekend due to Monday being a bank holiday. The weather recently has been absolutely divine, clear blue skies, a slight breeze and not too humid hence the reason that we have been trying to make the most of it.......and why am I sounding like a weather reporter right now?!

Yesterday which was a Saturday, we woke up and thought lets just take the car go for a drive somewhere with no real plan in mind which I think is sometimes the best plan of action. I have found when we have had days like that we always discover a new and exciting place. I highly recommend everyone to do this, be spontaneous! Life is way too short and a day like this hardly cost us anything, just a bit money for petrol and snacks.

Hi Lovelies, 

Hope you have all had a good week and that it hasn't been too crazy hectic, I cant believe we are already in to the 4th week of Jan...shocking!

Anyway as this is sort of the beginning of a New Year the start of new things to come and with some of us going back in to the corporate world like myself (sigh;), I thought this may be useful for those of you who are in the same boat as me and in need of a little inspiration on key items to start off your Workwear Wardrobe with, or maybe you are just looking to revamp your Workwear look.

I have decided to go with 5 Items as I didn't want anything too complicated to start off with, this is realistically close to what I currently have at the moment and would be a great start for anyone.

So kicking off;

I feel like I haven't done a beauty review on my blog in a while which Is definitely something I want to start doing more of and it's the kind of blog posts I enjoy reading, especially if I am in search of something in particular.

This week I have chosen to share with you my thoughts on one of my end of last year purchases, Mac PRO Conceal and Correct Palette in Medium Deep.
I had been on the hunt for an under eye corrector and initially wanted to buy the NYX corrector which just so happens to be sold out at "every" Sephora in KL(typical) and then I was with a friend in Mac when we both came across this palette.

In the palette you get 3 concealer shades, 2 of which are the same, a contour shade, a highlighter and a correcter;

Happy New Year everyone!! Once again so so sorry for my long absence I have no excuses just been feeling extremely demotivated and am in real need of getting my blogging mojo back!

So kicking of my first post in 2016 I am sharing with you all this easy peasy Carrot Cake Cupcakes recipe which I made over the Christmas holidays. This is a great recipe for those who like me that suffer with peanut allergies being this recipe does "not" contain any nuts and on top of that it is just a fun and simple way to get in to baking.

So, here we go;


Step 2: Sift your Flour, Bicarbonate Soda and Cinnamon powder over a newspaper (this is a technique my mum showed me, as seen in the photo above) and leave to one side whilst you mix together the other ingredients.

Step 3: In a mixing bowl you will need to blend the oil, sugar, eggs and vanilla essence.

Step 4: Once the above is blended, you can then add the carrots and dry ingredients and mix all together. I used a fork for this method because I wanted the texture to be quite coarse and not too smooth...if that makes sense.

Step 5: Pour the batter in to your cups. I did 2tbs scoops in each cup, but to be totally honest next time I would put more in each cup, maybe another 2 to make them more fuller.

Step 6: Place trays on a low rack in the oven and bake for approx 20-25mins.


Step 7: All you will need to do is mix the cream cheese, butter and lemon rind in a small  to medium size mixing bowl until smooth and then gradually beat in the sifted Icing Sugar. I used a rubber spatula for the mixing, but you can use a mini whisk or spoon.

Step 8: Once the cupcakes are ready you will need to take them out of the oven and their tray and place them on a cooling rack for approx 30mins. You want your cupcakes to be completely cooled down before applying the icing.
Tip: I've found the best way to check when a sponge cake is baked through is by putting a toothpick/wooden skewer in to the cake and if it comes out clean it means it's ready.

Step 9: Once cupcakes are cooled down we are now ready to apply our icing. You can apply the icing anyway you want, with a spoon, knife or rubber spatula. This time I decided to go all out and use a piping bag. Now I am no pro at this...so please don't judge!!


Step 10: This step is optional. As we had guests coming over and it was the festive season I went ahead and sprinkled some festive edible Holly Berries for decoration.
