Apart from Estee Lauder, the other brands on sale were Bobbi Brown, Clinique , Origins & Mac. Our first stop was, of course, the Estee Lauder booth. Seeing the rows and rows of “Beyond Paradise”… my heart sink in and my suspicions confirmed. My Pleasures Exotic had already been sold out. However, as if it was fated and before the disappointment permanently sets in, we spotted a box of Pleasures Intense & Pleasures Exotic. In a heartbeat, I quickly grabbed both sets before others laid their predatory eyes on these 02 hot items. My Pleasures Exotic became my advance birthday Prezzie too... Courtesy of Ms Dabrat...Woohoo!

With the 02 items safely kept in my bag, we then continued with our other shopping spree. Our best finds were Bobbi Brown foundation, MAC lipsticks and Mac concealer.

Overall, the shopping escapade was worth it but I must remind myself to come earlier for a Private sale as in may not be so “private “after all.

Next on the agenda was threesome lunch at Sakura Compasspoint. The third person being Hubby, who gamely joined us after his half-day work that day. The 03 of us had a seafood spread that day which consist of savory sweet and sour sliced fish, lemony lemon chicken, very “bagus” asparagus salad dish , hot fried wantons and yummy hotplate beancurd. A rather complete meal but we realized a little late that we didn’t order any soupy dish as well... So the whole lunch was a little on dry side... but that aside. Lunch was excellently enjoyable...
