Valiram Greatest Hits Sale - Victoria's Secret Haul

Photo Credit to Valiram Group Malaysia






Hola!!

I believe there are tons of Victoria's Secret's fans out there who knows about this sale! I heard it over the radio and googled the details. It was organized by Valiram Group, called the Greatest Hits Sale! So on thursday after work, I went to The Westin Hotel with a friend of mine (both soon-to-be-VS-shopaholics LOL)

I have been wanting Victoria's Secret's Bombshell perfume ever since I finished my mini bottle (a gift from a friend) but the stores were selling only the normal size bottles. Yet I got one Bombshell set in normal size which comes with a handy pouch since it's on sale. Super cute and simple! But I think I'm going to give that pouch to someone. I've too much pouches sitting on my cupboard.

Then, I was hoping to get a travel set because it's very very cute and convenient to bring around in my handbag. I was so excited when I found one here! It's in the Jet Setter Travel Kit. The exact mini bottle of Bombshell perfume! Madly in love! It comes along with a Sleeping Eye Mask, Lip balm, Brightening Gel Cream and a Hand Treatment. Happy!

My friend and I wasn't really satisfied with the few things we had in hand so we macro-shopped another round! LOL WTM! I got a set of Victoria's Secret's Love Spell with Body Mist, Lotion and Body Wash. I got this because of the purple pouch. Meh.. Might be giving it out as a gift or maybe use it on my own. Hahah!

Last but not least, who will walk away without any Victoria's Secret's underwear!? Too bad there wasn't any bras for sale but underwear will be fine! It was 5 for RM79 so, eyes closed and just grab!

The staffs were helpful and friendly. Nothing much to complain about the sale. The crowd was pretty heavy and everybody was hands full. There were other brands e.g. Jimmy Choo, Kate Spade etc but the products wasn't attractive to me. I'm super glad with my purchases! Anyone else went there?

Short Stay at Dreamz Bakery, Kota Damansara




Hola!!!

I was and is going to fully utilise my last two weeks before I was back to becoming a working ant again. By then, I'm not sure I actually will have the energy for writing. :( For now, let's enjoy the moment. A friend is working in Kota Damansara and after lunch with her, we had nowhere to go. She suggested this place - Dreamz Bakery.

Upon arrival, we eyed on everything little thing in their store. Full with handmade art works, childhood gums and cookies, cute little decorations all over the bakery store. So fun to look at. :D I only ordered Dark Secret cake to try out and I love it. Fresh, great taste and texture. It's just really rare to get fresh cake these days though there are a lot of cafes around. Maybe it's because they are a bakery store (duuuh).

Hola!!

I had fun participating The Butterfly Project for Himalaya New Range Product Gathering! Yet more fun acknowledging their new range of healthcare products. The event was held in Fuwa Fuwa, Jaya One with other 11 bloggers attended. Himalaya staffs were super friendly and funny so as everybody else.

We were given a little introduction on neem and turmeric being used widely in India to preserve acne-free and perfect skin texture condition. Most of us tried hands on with their new range of products and we could really see the results. I personally haven't got the chance to try it on my face with their generous freebies as I have another facial product on 'trial'. Hah. But hopefully by end of this month I'll be able to try it on. :)

Our activities that day included decorating our cookies with our own creativities along with a story behind the finished product. Prizes were given to the Best Story Telling and also Most Creative Cookies. I got one for the story telling part (Didn't do well in art classes during school time) but it was fun. All the girls took turn in telling their own story and presenting their artwork. Heh! Himalaya was very nice to provide us with lunch too! :)

So from the first picture, the products showed were:-

1. Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Wash (RM27.90 for 150ml, RM16.90 for 100ml)
2. Himalaya Purifying Neem Face Scrub (RM27.90 for 150ml)
3. Himalaya Neem Face Pack (RM 27.90 for 150ml)
4. Deep CLeansing Astrigent Lotion (RM27.90 for 200ml)
5. Himalaya Protecting Neem & Tumeric Body Wash (RM22.90 for 400ml, RM13.90 for 200ml)
6. Himalaya Nem & Almond Protecting Lotion
7. Himalaya Neem & Tumeric Soap
8. Himalaya Neem Caps
9. Himalaya Purifying Neem Foaming Face Wash
10. Himalaya Dental Cream Toothpaste

All Himalaya products are available at most drugstores and in affordable price too. Why not give it a try?

Thank you very much for both The Butterfly Project and Himalya team for this event! Visit the pages below for more info.

Beauty Issue #6 - Removing Dark Blackheads with O.S.T Original Pure Vitamin C20 Serum

Oxidized once I opened the cap


Hola!!!

When Stephenie from Natta Cosmo called and asked if I would like to review on this product, I was a little sceptical about it. I'll tell you why.

Besides my oil seeds issue which I kinda sort it out HERE, I have huge issues with my blackheads. I have it since I was 13 years old. Can you imagine? Hah. My history goes back when I innocently saw the Biore Pore Pack advertisement on tv and I followed exactly how they said I should. Exactly. And that was the problem. THEY DIDN'T SAY I HAD TO APPLY PORE REFINING TONER AFTER THAT!!! And so, I was a little disappointed when my blackheads grew darker, larger and my nose was getting dirtier. Yuck.

My confidence was low throughout high school years as I didn't really cared about those blackheads plus white heads. The worst thing I remembered a schoolmate actually said,

"You look like you grow moustache on your nose."

Yeap. I'll remember him til he dies. Until now, that I'm already a working adult, meeting people with my face (can't leave my nose at home, can I?) then I realize that it's time for me to solve this major problem. Like, major problem. So below are the pictures before I used this product from Natta Cosme.


[BEFORE] O.S.T Original Pure Vitamin C20 Serum


Scary isn't it? I don't really like to explain much in words so pictures will do the explanation. I can't lie, I still use the old school method - Blackhead Extractor Tool. I don't know, maybe I feel good torturing my nose since my nose had been torturing me all these years. LOL. Is that even make sense. WTM. Then, I used Biore Pore Pack White and Blackheads Remover too. Yes, I still believe in this product though I condemn the misunderstanding years ago. Along with my Chin Blackhead Remover too. Great combo.
See how dirty my pores are?

And then O.S.T Serum started. I tried applying both ways:-

1. Only t-zone area,
2. Whole face.

I prefer the first way because my t zone areas are more oily than the rest of my face whereas applying it on my whole face kinda dries up my cheeks a little bit. So if you have combination skin, I would advice you to do the same.


[AFTERO.S.T Original Pure Vitamin C20 Serum



Much cleaner? Heh. I can't say it was 100% due to the O.S.T Serum alone but it did help and I'm happy with the results. And for sure I didn't expect my nose to be perfectly clean but at least my pores shinked slightly. It might take some time because of the natural ingredients and I'm fine with it. Too much chemicals will damage my skin in time. Besides, these tiny monsters have been with me for more than 10 years. So why the rush?

Have you tried this? What's your verdict?

Beauty Issue #5 - Underage Red Liquid Lipstick by Kat Von D



Hola!!!

I've always been wanting a matte lipstick because I'm so in love with how it looks on other people's lips. So since a friend of mine is in USA earlier, I asked her a favor to get me one. I was expecting something from Guerlain or NYX or MAC or something more known (for me) since I couldn't get one from Sephora. MAC was my last resort which I haven't been. She came back with this lipstick brand from Italy. I googled and Kat Von D was a well known tattoo artist in America. Apparently this brand is not available in Malaysia (yet). Hopefully will be soon cause I love it!





[SWATCHES] The texture at first was liquid and then it finished off on my lips with matte effect. Very pretty, very vibrant and long lasting. Even after I removed it with lip remover, it still stains. *thumbs up* I am so excited to purchase other colours soon in November!

For now, let the pictures roll. ;)



Mad love with the redness! But I would advice ladies to go with a lip pencil cause for beginners like me, it took me quite some time to blend the colour according to the shape of my lips. I would put this on if I'm too lazy to put on my eye liner. Hah! But it does look great with minimal eye liner too, no? Another wish list crossed! Wee!

So, how red would your lips go?

Say Never Ever to Elstees, SS15



Hola!!!

Have you ever, EVER tried a drink or any food and the taste just makes you feel "yuck" that you just have to spit it out?! Yeap! That kinda feeling. We were supposed to dine at Meltz@SS15 but it was closed. an't remember which day was it. So I passed by this cafe. Looked pretty decent with minimal deco, with reasonable price. And I suggested to try out this one. Hmph.

We both ordered Hot Chocolate for our drinks and I ordered Mix Chop (lamb, chicken and 3 prawns). So sad but true, this is the worst Hot Chocolate that I've ever had. Ever. And ever. It tasted like WATER COLOUR PAINT! Not that I've tried water colour paint before but you just can smell it pretty well! :/ I literally was so disappointed with it! So disgusting that I just left it there and insisted my friend to do the same! (LOL by telling her she'll die of drinking that water colour liquid)

The food was so so, nothing much to talk about. I was already shocked with their so called Hot Chocolate. So much 'so' in this post. Just eww. Sorry Elstees, but you gotta improve a hell lot more than what you are doing now. You got a great location and deco. Don't mess up with F&B!

Oh.. We went to calm our tummy down with some desserts in Brewyard after that. Mood back to
 happy.

Resting at Sitka, Damansara Heights

say hi again to my sick face :D

Hola!

Started to get out from my bed since Thursday and it feels so good to come out to this er, not-so-fresh-air. Oh I miss Sabah's air! :( But yea, my immune system is back to normal but still kinda careful with my food intake. Heh.

Went to this cafe in Damansara Heights after round and round KL area for a parking to try out LOKL, lost our way to Hartamas' Brewmen. LOL! Ended up in Sitka. Never heard of it. I'm glad I did. Tried their hot chocolate and their cakes. Pretty good in taste, a little too sweet, however. For sweet tooth, you guys would find it just fine. I'm not very sure about their consistency yet I'll be back to confirm this. ;)

Have a happy weekend!






P/S Slightly off track - I've decided to allow my comment column again (with fear) so that I can know what you guys (who reads) think. Bye!

Red Lips For a Long Night



Hola!

Went out for a night out last Saturday and ended up pretty bad and had to rest in my car before driving home. But thanks to Vanessa who took care of me. *smoooches*. Providence was rather a place for those rich gang to drink up and get wasted with unlimited MOETs and whiskeys. Then I realised I am a person that would rather have a few more cups of coffee til the sun shines than to have another glass of champagne to toast.

Basically Vanessa and I didn't know almost everyone in the room (since she was invited and I was invited by her LOL) hence I have here, only pictures of me, myself and Vanessa.

Til then!


P/S Will write something about my red lips soon! ;)
