The April 2013 Vanity Trove – Spring Update

by Roxanne C.

The April 2013 Vanity Trove is all about ditching the wintry cold and gearing up for Spring! In this month’s trove, there is a lot of skincare from Dr.Ci:Labo and beauty giant Elizabeth Arden. Because Dr.Ci:Labo originated in Tokyo, Japan, this month’s trove came along with a cute pamphlet about skincare and Dr.Ci:Labo’s products, written entirely in Japanese, and a slip of paper with Japanese words scribbled all over it. Here, let me show you:

Can anyone decode this?

Can anyone decode this? With my knowledge in Mandarin, I think this is something like a diary/letter about how a girl’s skin has improved after using Dr.Ci:Labo’s products.

 

I also received a little S$10 voucher for any Elizabeth Arden Visible Whitening products, valid till the end of the month. I think I’ll have to first try out the products in the trove. And here they are:

Since a few months back, Vanity Trove has been mailing out their own magazine, Vanity Mag, along with the troves. I really like this little magazine because it’s light, small and very portable. In addition to that, the quality of the paper used is good. The articles inside are also extremely relevant in today’s fashion and beauty world and they include things like fashion spreads and makeup tutorials, instead of just shameless promotion of the items that Vanity Trove endorses. I took some snapshots of the pages within so you can take a look.
