2 WHAT’S NEW

Try, Be Fab! When it comes to looking great, women are always worried about their appearance. Other than fashion, lear- ning how to apply makeup is a must for women to look good and confident. By doing so, there are so many products that we need to know and the steps that we need to learn before and after applying makeup. Be- fore applying makeup, do apply skin care products first. It helps to protect our skin at least, from getting any sensitivity from using any make up products and avoid cracked result for those who have dry skin. After skin care, these are what you need to have for basic makeup:

1. Foundation – choose the one suit our neck rather than our face so it would blend better between the two. 2. Concealer – apply layer on T-Zone area, under eye and chin. 3. Eye Shadow Palette – for daily make up, use lighter shade or natural shade. 4. Eyeliner - Brush Tip or Sponge Tip. Different tip gives different result. Sponge tip tends to get thicker line. For beginners, I would recommend using sponge tip, easier to control to draw the line. 5. Eyelash Curler – No electric curler for beginner. 6. Mascara.

3 Do you know that concealer does play 2nd im- portant part in our makeup besides foundation? Concealer is color corrector that helps to cover our dark circle, freckles or age spot, visible pores and small blemishes that visible to our skin.

DRESS ME DRESS YOU DRESS ALL

“It is funny how there are no designer wanting to help me with a premiere dress for movie” twitted Leslie Jones. Is it true when women hit a certain size, it is hard for them to get designer to do a nice dress for them to attend premiere or any red carpet event?

Christian Siriano, who was the winner of Project Runway in 2008, stepped up to rescue Leslie Jones for her “Ghost Buster”, movie premiere. Because of that Leslie Jones dress made the headline in the media. Christian Siriano desig- ned the simplest red dress that spoke the most volume for her than wearing a big gown at the premier. She looked gorgeous in that red dress.

He even dressed the biggest stars like Michelle Obama, Celine Dion, Julianne Moore and Oprah Winfrey. Celine Dion loves the dress that he designed; it looked sexy even though she was fully covered at “Beauty and the Beast” premiere.

Today’s digital age creates many opportunities for tech-savvy visionaries and entrepreneurs. One of the long-known innovations is cryptocurrency such as the notorious BitCoin, Ethereum, and X-Coin. Cryptocurrency is apparently more secure. Its strength lies in encryption and blockchain technology which comes in the form of Coins or Tokens.

Cryptocurrency comes to play in many aspects of life today. Nowadays, it is a valuable investment, a developing trend that can be used to buy real, physical, hard assets such as Real Estate. We recently interview one of the Co-Founders of REIDAO, Mr. Hendrik Tanjaya Tan.

What is REIDAO and what does it do? “REIDAO is a company operating under Singapore’s Corporate & Tax Laws & Regulations. It offers REI Token, which is based on Ethereum Blockchain and can be used to invest in Crowdvilla, a Real Estate project initiati- ve by the company. Crowdvilla itself is based on sharing economy in which it gives REI Token holders a stake in Real Estate in various parts of the world.

Crowdvilla aims to have access to real estate in major tourists’ destinations globally. Indirectly, the community own the assets and they have the right to utilise the assets wherever they are. It also removes middleman which usually associated with profits, hence providing better value for the community”.

What is the mission of the company?

There this case, currently, real estate). We then pivoted could be twists to the story, but then, those twists to a model that focuses to the utility of the real can be good ones, too. It is an exciting journey.” estate. Combined with travel and tourism indus- try, project Crowdvilla was born”. Website: https://crowdvilla.io/

How does this begin? Where the idea came from? “It started from personal experience. Most of us would like to have a piece of real estate, but more often than not, we don’t have that access or resources to achieve it. We are trying to address this”.

What made you choose this type of business? What motivate you? “This is one industry, where everyone involves in one way or another. With the advancement of technology, many people can come together as community to have access to a pool of assets. This will change the paradigm on how we view real estate”.

Who has been your greatest inspiration? “Internally, my family. They have been very sup- portive and inspire me to do better. Externally, Sir Alex Ferguson who was in Man- chester United hotseat for more than 25 years. While managing the team, he empowered players in different ways, and many of them eventually became managers themselves. He would not stop motivating players before the end of full-time whistle. Such relentlessness leads him to many successes we have seen”.

CrowdVilla is indeed a fresh initiative from a group of Indonesian entrepreneurs. They graduate from National University of Singapore (NUS), and currently live in Singapore. REIDAO and CrowdVi- lla is a good investment opportunities regardless of the size of capital in hand. Such opportunity is hot in the market.
