Ok, the lighting sucks. I was too busy eating the burger to change my camera setting. Who wouldn't? The burger's so awesome. Like this awesome:

OMG. I can still taste the yummy cheese with the egg and juicy beef patty plus their fresh daily-made homemade charcoal bread *drools*

They've got great fries to go with the equally awesome, also homemade sauce (^v^/)

Wanted to go with a friend last weekend but we arrive late and the burgers were sold out! (,T^T,) They've really sold out on most days, sometimes as early as 7pm or was the record an hour and a half after opening hour? Yeah, truly recommendable!! Must try if you're in KL!!


Here's another place nearby worth trying. Last weekend when I didn't managed to get my burgers @myburgerlab, my friend suggested we go to this 'super mamak'_Murni Restaurant, which have equally awesome menus. Here's something random I got. It's 'recommended' by the menu.

I think it's so-so. Probably the only great thing about it is the size and amount of seafood they have in it. This one's shared between my friend and I but I ate most of it since my foodie buddy had his paella earlier (,=3=,) I wanna eat paella too...

And I've decided on a 'Fair Lady' fruit cocktail with natta de coco, for a change of my usual 'bandung sirap' which I usually order in mamaks. They have a huge selection of cocktails and other drinks and they've all got mushy names like 'I Love You', 'I Kiss You', 'I Miss You' and so on. There's even 'Don't Worry' and 'Be Happy'. What a name.

Sponsored Review: Majolica Majorca Psychedelicious

Weeks ago, I mentioned received a number of items from Majolica Majorca for purpose of reviewing. Hope I haven’t been keeping some of you waiting (Ov≤)-☆ So walah~! Here they are!!!!




Hawt stuff in my handbag!

Items I received include a mascara, a brow colorist that also works as a mascara and a eyeshadow palette~!



The items initially in their packaging~

In this post, I’ll be reviewing only two of the products Lash King and Brow&Lash Colorist, both from Majolica Majorca’s Summer 2012 Collection~!

Introducing the latest line for Chapter 34:


Lash King in Brown, BR666


First up is my review on Lash King mascara! In this new line, Majolica Majorca's introducing its best selling mascara in a new BROWN shade! Similar to its predecessor, it has long fibers that gives your lashes awesomely natural-looking thickness and length! Not to mention a mascara formula with lengthening liquid mascara base. Also, it is described to be 'waterproof against sweat, sebum and tears'.



With 5mm fibers extensions for king size lashes!


Lash King in BR666

I applied the mascara by holding the wand horizontally and stroke it upwards in a zig-zaggy motion. There's so much difference already with just a single stroke but I tend to stroke the lashes at the outer corner of my eyes a couple of times to get the thicker-at-the-end result ♥


Apply to top lashes in zig-zaggy motion

Here's the comparison before(left) and after(right) applying Lash King in just a single stroke!



 With(right) and without(left) Lash King




I applied it to my lower lashes the same way I do with my upper lash but find that the fibers attached itself better to the lower lashes if you hold the wand horizontally.

The verdict?  I LOVE how it made my lashes distinctively noticeable and despite my black hair, didn't appear oddly mismatched ヾ(@°▽^@)ノ Also, compared to my usual black mascara, I think the brown makes my eyes stands out more naturally. I'd give a 4.5/5 rating for this baby ♡



Brow&Lash Colorist


Next up, Majolica Majorca Brow&Lash Colorist review. As their name may have suggested, this is a brow mascara that doubles as a lash mascara and they come in two shades of brown_ Vanilla Brown in BR333 and Maroon Brown in BR555.



Majolica Majorca Brow&Lash Colorist in BR555

This is how you apply it onto the brows_simple stroke it following the arch of your brows as shown in the photo below:

In just 3 simple strokes!



And the result?


Notice the huge difference it makes with just a single coat? Lovely!!

The brows appear lighter in a brown shade with reddish hint. The wand is made such that just the right amount of color is spread onto the brows and making it so easy to apply! Plus they looked oh-so-natural and would have complimented hair in dark chocolate shade or reddish/orange-ish brown. Can't wait to get my hair dyed soon!! ٩(♡ε♡ )۶

Oooh, and didn't I mentioned, it's a brow AND lash colorist? Apply it on your lashes the same way you'd use a mascara. Zig zag motion for top lashes and hold the wand vertically and swipe it from side to side!



Trade noticeable lashes for matching-colored brows and lashes?

Unlike Lash King, this Brow&Lash Colorist didn't do much difference  in the length of my lashes since they didn't have the fibers in the formula. It does give a lighter-colored and curlier lashes(I didn't use an eyelash curler for this review!).

I actually love the idea of matching brows and lashes but decided this Brow&Lash Colorist works best only as a brow mascara. The color made my lashes lighter in color they're hardly noticeable even from a close distance... |(''>.<')|| I'd still give this a 4/5 rating for this awesome idea!



Majolica Majorca's Psychedelicious Collection will be available around leading pharmacies around Malaysia soon ♡ While this post is written on behalf of items sponsored by Majolica Majorca, all opinions are 100% by yours trulyヾ(Ov≤)ノ-☆
