Maybe polka dot nails were a little too cheery and cutesy to have on long-term and got tired of them pretty soon. However, it is still a fun nail option so dotty nails will make a comeback, fret not!

A small part of why I got over the polka dots so quick was because I recently received these Ruby Kisses polishes and of the 4 shades, 2 of them were just beckoning and calling out to me...

Made in Korea, these Ruby Kisses HD polishes are available in 18 different shades at our local Watsons stores. While I don't have the whole kaleidoscope of colors to showcase, here are the 4 vibrant shades I have:

Peach on Fire

Electric Purple

She a Goldigger (I'm amused with how ghetto this sounds, goldigger term aside)

Bold and the Beautiful

Being completely new to this brand, I would say I approached it with some caution. By caution, I mean that I prepared myself for the scenario that it could be hard to apply, perhaps streaky or have a long drying time. I know, I sound a little crazy.

However, I was pleasantly surprised that these ended up being an ease to work with, from the opaque formula right down to the brush.

The brush is rather wide, short (not too stumpy either) and flat, which is everything that I love with a nail polish brush. It was easy to control and paint the polish on and you did not have to go over the nail multiple times because the brush spreads and covers the nail pretty well.

Formula-wise, it was another surprise and I found this decently opaque with just 1 coat though I did about 1 1/2, just to smooth out any probable bald portions.

The dry time with this is quite impressive and part of it is due to the fact that it dries down to a satin-ish finish – not a glossy effect yet not matte either. The perks of that is that you need not fear about 'imprinting' on your polish and if you do need some gloss you can always use a topcoat.

So, with the polish introduction done, here are some pictures to follow!

Could you have guessed what were the 2 shades I used in the manicure?

As the base, I painted on Electric Purple and while the immediate image to follow shows a hot pink, this is exactly how the purple is like. Under certain lightings it comes off as a pink, but under others it is somewhat a magenta-purple.

(with camera flash)

(with daylight lamp)

I can't even tell you which is more true to how it appears in person because I have seen this lean both shades on my nails and it really depends on the lighting that I am under.

That aside, the above is a 1 1/2 coats though I only covered some portions by the sides with that extra 1/2 coat. The finish is, as described, rather satin-ish. It does have a muted shine but not enough that I would call it glossy.

To complete this, I tipped the edges of my nails with Bold and the Beautiful !

French tips are incredibly common, I know, but it's a simple and cute way of adding something more to the manicure!

While Ruby Kisses polishes claim to be chip-resistant and long-lasting, it's a pity I couldn't test that aspect out since I slapped on some Seche Vite topcoat right after for a little glossiness.

Thus far I have worn this combination for 5 days now and am getting a little bored of it. I seem to get intrigued by the brights and bored of them really fast, like how I have a plan for Peach On Fire and She A Goldigger...

Will share on that shortly ;) Meanwhile, you can also check out Holly Jean's and Monica (Beauty Oshaberi)'s swatches of other Ruby Kisses shades!

Thanks for reading and hope everyone is enjoying the weekend! I'm trying to switch to productive mode but my brain is refusing to start up.

Ruby Kisses are available at Watsons for S$9.90.

Sunday! I always have mixed emotions about this day because on one hand you're so glad it's still a day off and on the other, the thought of work creeping back up just sits at the corner of your mind.

Regardless, I had a mind to sit down and post up some entries though errands ended up stealing me away and one of the errands involved stocking up on toiletries.

So what you get after a long tiring Sunday is this quick summary haul entry. Oops!

❧

As the title goes, I dropped by Watsons today and amidst my toiletries, I also picked up my favorite lash glue of the moment.

Actually, saying this is my favorite is a wee bit off but previously I had purchased the clear version of this (because it was the only one available) and really liked how it worked.

Though after having used dark lash glue before, I much prefer it over the clear ones and simply had to pick up the dark variant of it once I saw it was available.

Plus it has a purple polka dot cover! Frivolous fun but such a cute combination.

With my previous purchase I paid no heed to the fact that apparently this contains rose and fruit extract to care for the sensitive skin on your eyelids.

What I like about this is the wand-applicator that it comes with because I almost always cause a mess using the squeeze tubes. Even if I manage to come out of a false lash application mess-free with those, they do take a lot of time and effort to 'aim and squeeze on'.

Thus, wand applicators are the way to go!

In my experience with this (both clear and one use of the dark one), these are like an inbetween of a former lash glue I used and the Shu Uemura one.

The Shu Uemura is really heavy duty, I find, and it's certainly something you don't have to worry about 'peeling' or falling off if applied right. Yet you can't just lazily peel it off at the end of the day too. Some have found it to be so adhesive it could cause some irritation to the lids with prolonged regular wear but that's just what I heard.

My former one was okay, usuable and similar to DUO in my experience but it does lift at the edges or sometimes in the middle after a long day. Nothing that threatens to make the lash fall but it does make you feel insecure.

So long story short, I find this really sticks and holds on yet you can choose to peel it off lazily at the end of the day too. You can feel it's adhesion but it's not so tight that it is uncomfortable.

Phew! What a long essay about lash glue comparisons and I'm hardly the right person to ask!

Forgot to mention, Dollywink's lash glue is S$18.95, if I remember correctly.

Aside from picking up this new love, here are the other toiletries I stocked up on at Watsons (my favorite place for toiletry shopping).

So.. just because I am curious...

What is your favorite eyelash glue to use? Do you prefer clear or dark?

Thanks for reading and hope everyone has a great work or school week ahead!

I was wandering about Watsons getting my toiletries shopping done when I chanced upon this little product.

My immediate thought process went a little something like this:

cursed uneven eyelids, you have plagued me enough, this is war!

And then I proceeded to grab one of these double eyelid tapes.

The truth is I had contemplated on getting these tapes a couple of times, back when I had an attack of the exact same 'problem' right now. The only thing was the lids fixed themselves pretty soon after and then I forgot all about the tape. It was pretty much that exact same cycle happening again and again till now.

The reason I picked this up was because I actually prefered how this looks compared to other double eyelid tapes I have seen.

I don't actively search double eyelid tapes out so when I saw that this was matte (ish), skintone and seemed eyeshadow friendly, I grabbed it and hope that it would deliver.

There are 3 sheets within and each sheet houses 10 pairs though I believe I might only be using the right side of it. Unless I wish to further balance things up on the left.

It has little 'tabs' at the edges to help you hold on to and pick up the eyelid tape without losing the sticky factor on the eyelid portion itself.

It also comes with a prong to aid with application.

I haven't tried it out for myself yet but my fingers are crossed. While I'm hoping that my lids do go back to normal, I am also intrigued in seeing how this could work out.

I also replenished my favorite Gatsby oil blotter with this trip, along with boring / random toiletries, no need to share those.

I shall update again when I actually get to try it! Since this is my first encounter with double eyelid tapes, for pros out there any tips / tricks or anything to look out for?

Else I'm just going to wing it and pray it works out.

p.s. I think it was S$9.90. I didn't really check the price, grabbed and went off.

Thanks for reading!

A wee haul, welcoming the work week all over again.

Finally, after an incredibly long time since it's entrance, I decided to give the Essence shelf at Watsons a look. Of course it's almost impossible to walk into Watsons and not be distracted by anything else so here's the overview of what I left the store with.

I'll leave the rest to another entry but a quick rundown of what little I picked up from Essence.

I didn't give the makeup range a good look, probably a scan but nothing really caught my eye. Perhaps I was scanning way too quick but these days my vision hones in to polishes and the only time I really browse makeup is if it catches my eye online, which leads me to checking it out in person.

Like that one time when I got really obsessed with perfumes? This time it's polishes.

At S$2.50 (if I'm not wrong), they are really well priced. It's really no harm in picking up more but I restricted myself to one. Just one (first).

I haven't tried this on my nails just yet but it seems to swatch quite opaque with one coat (on tape). I can't recall the name of this now and don't have it by me but I will update when I have it!

The shade is Sure Azure!

They still had the Ballerina Backstage collection up for display though of course everything was very well rummaged through.

I was interested in the cheek soufflé but alas the Watsons I went by didn't have stock of it anymore. I chanced upon it at others but the whim to purchase yet another unnecessary cheek product had passed.

I went ahead and picked up an eye soufflé though, just cause.

Oddly there weren't any testers in the aisle so I had to do some on-the-spot googling for swatches since I can't recall how they looked and from the vials (when lidded), you honestly can't see a thing!

In the end I picked up Pas De Copper, a shade that I would seem to use. Though I was quite disappointed that the texture isn't as soufflé as the cheek product.

This is straight out cream... like Benefit's Creaseless Shadows but not as 'slick'.

Nonetheless it's still a nice cream shadow product which I could throw all over my lid any day and make do. I think this was about S$3-ish? Or was it S$4... I could be way off but it wasn't a bad price.

Left: Blended / Right: Heavy Swatch

That's it for my simple and little trip to check out Essence. It seems we don't have the whole arsenal of Essence here and in particular I am eyeing a bunch of the gorgeous polish duos. I didn't see them on the shelves, or perhaps I was scanning too quick.

Iris (rougedeluxe) had featured a couple of these lovely duos but this post showcases one of my fav shades she had swatched.

Any recommendations on what are you using and loving from Essence? Foundation? Liners?

Thanks for reading!

I'm in no way cheating here but this is for last week's masking session which I had done on a Saturday. It's a couple days late because everything is in a whirlwind of crazy now but... all's good.

I am slowly taking a liking to these weekly masking sessions instead of looking at it as a chore because of my new years resolution. If I have a couple of hours to spare, I would normally think to throw on a sheet mask and settle down for a quick nap. Something about sheet masks have the ability to lull you to sleep so much quicker than plopping on the bed as is.

Thus, in most cases I end up leaving my sheet masks on for an hour instead of the recommended 15-20 minutes, is this a bad thing though?

Regardless, this was the mask I pulled out to use last week.

Description

This beauty buffet mask's unique recipe is made up of Charcoal to deeply cleanse & purify pores, as well as Cypress Extract to help maintain oil balance & refine pores, and Glycine to help retain moisture. After use, skin appears more supple, lightened and refreshed.
(from the package)

I may have mentioned but the boyfriend is actually more up for the idea of masking than I am, or was. Before my whole 'must mask every week!' resolution, he would mask more often than I do; that also explains the 2 sheet masks present above.

I let him pick from the masks I have and he ended up choosing this, though I am sure it is because this sounds and looks a lot manlier than the other options I have - Apple & Evening Primrose, Yoghurt etc.

The mask comes with a piece of plastic attached to one side of it, which you remove before putting it on. It has a cloth-like texture that isn't too thick and it comes well-soaked.

It is also lightly scented and since it's not a charcoal scent, my next guess would be Cypress?  Though I can't be certain how Cypress smells. If I could compare it to anything, I would say it smells like Heaven & Earth's Green Tea. The scent is quite prominent and actually lingers on the skin after the mask is removed.

The sheet mask fits perfectly on the boyfriend's face but it does leave excess around the forehead and temple region, of which don't mind.

I have to warn you though that while the mask isn't exactly fragile, it is still soaked cloth that will succumb to any rough movements. What I mean is that I had managed to make a tear while adjusting the mouth portion of it.

I doubt I was using herculean strength but I suppose you have to be a little dainty when adjusting this mask once it's on. Boyfriend managed to make a small tear in his as well so... perhaps it's not just me.

As always, the mask suggests to massage the essence in after and this would be one of those that I feel you possibly could just pat it in and live with it. Though as a personal preference I still rinsed my face after.

Here are some findings during and post mask:

• Mask has a tingling effect on, not painful or annoying yet not minty either. Those with sensitive skin might want to skip this.
• Smells like Heaven & Earth Green Tea, leaves a lingering scent after removing
• After leaving it on (and falling asleep) for 45 minutes, the mask was still moist
• Skin feels very refreshed after
• The pores definitely looked smoothened out post-mask though it's not a permanent thing
• Skin is supple yet I wouldn't classify this as a hydrating mask

 

In all, I am quite surprised that a sheet mask has the ability to refresh the skin as such. I assumed all sheet masks would provide their natural duty of hydration, moisture and calming the skin but refreshing... that's a nice change.

These masks are available at Watsons's Beauty Buffet corner for S$7.90 a pack (with 5 sheets).

 

What have you masked on lately?

Thanks for reading!

I wanted to put this up sooner but there was some darn glitch on the post page which didn't allow me to input images. The glitch is still present but I'm trying my hand at hosting the pics elsewhere and being completely manual with this, will explain in a bit!

I had some time to kill last Tuesday and since I was around Bugis, I decided to drop by Watsons. Even if I don't have anything in mind to get it's always nice to just peruse the aisles and decide on the spot that I actually might need some things.

Right now they are having a 20% off till the 29th of June. Not entirely sure if it's a store-wide deal but either ways, it's worth checking out.

With the offer, I picked up something that I actually need -- sunscreen.

Aqualabel White Protect Milk UV SPF 30 PA++

This was a recommendation by Mag (makeupstash) as I had once mentioned how I never used sunscreen because I never found one to my liking. However 'non-sticky' most sunscreens claim to be, I would still find a noticeable tact to it that's past my tolerable point.

This, was different though and is truly not sticky or greasy upon spreading out, I was impressed! A true claim, not one of the above mentioned scenario.

I swatched it in the store and it is runny texture that spreads out easily without leaving any odd white blotches despite the white cream appearance.

Upon spreading it out I almost didn't feel it on my hand at all, it wasn't sticky or greasy but not saying it was powdery smooth like primer.

It felt really light-weight, almost like nothing. With that I was sold.

I have tried this on my face and the feeling translates as well. Not the situation whereby the swatch is smooth on the hand but still tacky when used on the face. I've been using this religiously and am pretty glad about finally incorporate SPF to my routine.

This also comes in SPF 50, which had a bit of tact to it since it's water-resistant but still relatively okay. The red (moisturizing) range has one in SPF 28, which also has a slight tact to it since it's suppose to be hydrating.

I liked this one the best.

It's retail price is S$26.90 but it's going for S$18.80 right now (with the 20%).

With a watsons giftcard and redeeming some points from my membership card, I ended up only paying 80cents for this.

Gotta love sales!

--- p.s. I managed to post this by hosting the images on photobucket and seriously just typing this up under the html tab with the codes. So the entry looks a little something like this. Lol.

Not a long term solution because I don't trust photobucket's bandwidth but I wanted to get this up while the Watsons sale is still on.

Thanks for reading!

DHC, a brand most known for their skincare products and interesting supplement drinks, have now put out a makeup collection that comprises of base makeup, eyeshadow, lipsticks and lipglosses.

In this post I will first highlight the 'fun' and colorful bit by showcasing the eyeshadows, lipglosses and lipsticks that have been launched at most Watsons stores since the 1st of May.

This makeup range is fragrance-free and paraben-free, making it suitable for those with sensitive skin or are iffy about using products with paraben.

❧

The DHC Eyeshadow palettes (S$31.90) are specially infused with ingredients like Olive Virgin Oil, Squalane and Ceramide. These help to hydrate and protect the eye area from dryness since the skin there though sensitive and thin is exposed to a variety of makeup products (eyeshadow, base, liner etc).

The eyeshadow quads are available in 3 different tones that are generally subtle enough for everyday wear. The eyeshadow shades all carry shimmer (as you will see in the swatches) to provide some dimension for the illusion of bigger eyes, a popular thing with most asian-brand eyeshadows.

DHC Eyeshadow Palette in BE03

DHC Eyeshadow Palette in PU06

DHC Eyeshadow Palette in RD05

Quick thoughts:
The eyeshadow shades were all pigmented and as mentioned, shimmery, though I did notice that RD05 and BE03 (the reddish and brownish quad) seemed to be a bit more pigmented. For PU06 (the purple quad) I had to go over the darkest purple once more to get the purple tones to really pull through. Though packed with shimmer, I didn't experience any shimmery fall out while using BE03 for work. The packaging itself is rather sturdy and compact too. The shades are a little run of the mill, but I guess that is their concept for the color selection - a more wearable approach.

--

Next up, the DHC Moisture Care Lipstick (S$34.50) which is available in 5 shades.

I would say my first impression of this would be that it's a little pricey going for S$34.50 though DHC supports that with a multitude of super hydrating ingredients infused into this lipstick - Super Hyaluronic Acid, Marne Collagen, Olive Virgin Oil, Squalane and Amino-based emollients.

Out of the 5 shades I received the following 3

DHC Lipstick in BE07

DHC Lipstick in PK04

DHC Lipstick in RD08

Quick thoughts:
The lipsticks are more of a glaze, providing a hint of color coupled with a mildly glossy finish. They are also infused with some flecks of glitter for that reflective dimensional look, though the texture of these seem to be a little 'thin'. I noticed that they tend to initially settle into the fine lines (as seen in PK04's swatch) before the lipstick's hydrating properties are put to work and help 'plump' the lips. In comparison, these remind me of Maquillage's Glossy Perfect Rouge though Maquillage's is glossier, creamier, and pricier too. Though I do like how with the DHC Lipstick my lips still feel hydrated after these have worn off be it over time or after eating.

--

Next up, the DHC Moisture Care Liquid Lip Color (S$34.50) which is available in 5 shades as well.

The lipgloss is also infused with the same hydrating ingredients found in the lipstick. Additionally, it is also enriched with Oat Kernel Extract which helps lift wrinkles on the lips. It is said that with continuous usage one's lips might be firmer and smoother. Perhaps I should just stick with using this gloss everyday and see if that works out!

DHC Moisture Care Lip Color in RD07, PK05 and OR06

I have not done lip swatches for these glosses just yet but will post some up in an upcoming LOTD that I had done using the DHC eyeshadow Palette in RD05. In the meantime, here's a look at the unique applicator of the glosses which are shaped in such a way that allows you to paint on lipgloss like you would with a brush.

 

The full range of DHC's Colored Makeup Range can be found at Watsons stores in Bugis Junction, Compass Point, ION Orchard, Ngee Ann City and Raffles City amongst others if you are interested to drop by and check these products out in person.

Thanks again for reading!

Hello everyone, in this post I want to spread the word about Watsons Giftcards.

It's not a very new thing if you follow (or rather 'Like') Watsons on their facebook page, but for those uninformed this may be the best solution if you are fretting over birthday gifts.

Of course giving personal gifts to besties and loved ones are always the best but when it comes to colleagues or acquaintances, this would fit the bill. After all, Watsons carries stuff that cater to men, women, kids and pretty much everyone be it if they were shopping for cosmetics, toiletries, hairdye, snacks etc. The recipient of this will be able to have some practical (or perhaps frivolous) hauling with this card -- everyone's happy!

Upon purchase of the giftcard, you will have to input a minimum value of S$10 within it.

The giftcard comes with a little memo card where you can be personal and write a message to the recipient.

The back of the attached memo card comes with some instructions like the card being usable and that you can top it up once the value runs low. This way the recipient (and you) will be able to understand this giftcard fully.

To answer quick questions:

• The value in the card can be used to pay for any and everything at all Watsons stores, with the exception of Watsons at Changi Airport.
• Value in card cannot be exchanged for cash
• Value in your giftcard is not transferrable to other giftcards and cannot be combined with other giftcards' value
• Last but not least is there an expiration? Well the value will expire if the card has not been used for 12 consecutive months after purchase/top-up

 

If you have more questions regarding this I'm pretty sure you can drop Watsons a message on their Facebook page and they will get back to you about it. This way others will be able to find out from your query too!

This giftcard is another addition to Watsons' cards, on top of their membership program. While I like shopping for gifts, I feel a little more assured I have something to turn to if all else fails and I can't find suitable gifts in time. It wouldn't count as being insincere to give giftcards, but more of practical, especially if your friend loves shopping at Watsons.

In another scenario, getting a watsons giftcard for yourself is pretty nifty too. It would function like a Watsons 'cashcard' and you'll be able to spend from it without feeling all that bad about sapping from your bank (working some psychology here!).

Thanks for reading!

Hello again!

It has been awhile since I had last updated this space, such that I'm wondering how to best say hello again. Well, I'm not getting sick of blogging, deliberately slacking off it or losing motivation to update. It's just, life happens and I have been a little busy of late, the usual stuff.

Shan't go into detail about that but just so you all know, I'm still blogging and still around! Blogging is something I look to as a hobby and what I spend my spare time doing. Lets just say I haven't had much spare time lately...

❧

In the meantime, I had just finished up on one of the things that kept me slightly preoccupied the past 2 weeks -- the Watsons Tote Bag design!

This is part of a Watsons Live Beautifully facebook event they are running now where a total of 8 Watsons ambassadors will be paired up to showcase a certain theme. I was paired with Karen (renzze.com) to showcase the theme 'Create Beautifully'

With our theme we have to share 4 inspirational posts regarding our concepts/process of creating a Watsons tote bag and with the fourth post, unveil the final design. I'll admit this had taken a good amount of my time and most of it was spent on coming up with the design, the visuals etc rather then doing the design itself.

As the Watsons app has sinced move on to their next week and my past entries can't be vieweed anymore, I've decided to post my bag design here to share it with you all.

Here's my final design:

I recommend briefly reading through my rambly design rational to help better understand how this final design was derived. Though incase it's too lengthy, the two main keypoints I focussed on was Beauty (represented by patchwork) & Nature.

Watsons Tote Bag Design Rationale:

I opted to symbolize nature in a direct manner by incorporating a rose. The rose also gives the bag a soft feminine touch amidst the rugged use of Canvas (mighty durable material!). As for beauty, the rose itself does say so much but I decided to go with my concept of beauty – taking little incomplete and unwanted pieces and putting them together to form a more wholesome product.

This is also where the random marketing idea comes into play. Each petal on the rose uses a different cloth material and my idea would be to get the general public involved in this green tote bag movement by donating some of their unwanted cloth pieces be it curtains, clothes, etc to help power this movement. Hence each tote bag will have a different ‘design’ since the cloth used for the petals will vary. The next exciting thing would be for people to see their donations featured on a tote bag!

And on to more pictures of the bag including some detail close-ups.

 

And a little random thing but the shoes I'm wearing in the picture above is a new pair that I had gotten from New Look during their recent sale. I love it, plus it's wedges which makes it comfy to walk in (compared to heels) but the strap does 'bite' a little. Oh, what we do for beauty...

The wedges are a navy shade, a little closer to the Watsons photo, not black like in the above 2 photos.

❧

Though my run in this Watsons facebook event is over, don't forget to drop by and check out what the remaining 6 bloggers have to share! The other segments include Feel Beautifully, Look Beautifully and Share Beautifully.

As you might have guessed, Look Beautifully will be the makeup segment and will run for 2 weeks from 9th May - 22nd May. The featured bloggers in this segment will be the lovely Mag (makeupstash) and Sarah (facesbysarah) so don't forget to check that out!

Thank you all again for reading and still sticking with my blog through this busy period of mine (: I would like to promise more entries soon but I know I will be busy for a little while (don't want to make empty promises) though rest assured I will be back!

A quick mention on some events that have happened and I haven't blogged about.

Some might have noticed from the Watsons Facebook page, 10 bloggers (me included) have been selected to be Watsons Ambassadors. Some familiar names that are within the ambassador list would be Mag (Makeupstash), Kas (cocomotion), Sarah (Facesbysarah) and a couple others.

Watsons is fast becoming a wonderous place for cosmetic (and skincare) lovers so it's pretty exciting to be part of something like this. I find it fascinating when bigger groups open up to social media and decide on using a different platform to connect to their consumers. That aside, part of this 'ambassadorship' would be to attend certain workshops where we will be introduced to various products that Watsons carries and we will have a chance to try these select items out.

❧

During the first workshop and get-together session, we were introduced to DHC and Pure Beauty (a local brand).

During this session we were given a bottle of DHC's Collagen Drink to try out.

it was mentioned an ingredient in this is fish collagen. While I had an inkling it could be marine collagen or something of that sort, I decided to give it a shot anyway. Taste-wise, it vaguely reminded me of a sweet white grape-flavored drink but the after-taste is different. It's nothing scary or herbal but if you cannot take marine collagen (have eczema etc), stay away from this.

I had some itch patches the next day as I can't take marine collagen. Thankfully it wasn't severe since I only had one bottle but at least now I know (and you do too).

 

We were provided with a goodie bag that contained an entire skincare range (courtesy of Pure Beauty) amongst other things. I will be giving this skincare range a try starting this weekend.

I have been using and loving the Vichy Normaderm range for the past 4 months or so, thus no harm in switching it up a little. I do like the scent in the Pure Beauty Black Pearl range (featured above) and I will feedback on this skincare line after trying it out for an adequate amount of time. One thing I do like about this Pure Beauty line is that though the products contain premium ingredients, they are affordably priced too.

I took a quick snap shot of the Pure Beauty Black Pearl display at Watsons.

Will report back on that along with a couple other interesting items included within the goodie bag. This first workshop was rather skincare-centric and while it is still interesting, hopefully the next ones contain more makeup!

❧

Before I let you guys go, I want to inform you of a fun activity Watsons is having on their Facebook page.
