Random stuff again~

Me blogging has been an on and off thing lately  (I apologize for that). Mostly because working life has become a priority nao and when I get back home at the end of the day, my brain decides its time to sleep...

Or spend the last ounce of energy LMAO-ing watching Running Man (which I'm taking forever to finish the entire season) instead of lifting my fingers to type. (≧▽≦)

I can finally understand why some of my blogger friends decided to put away blogging once they've entered the working life. Blogging is no easy task, some of you may well know it. Still, I've got no thoughts of completely ceasing to write. It's been serving as a good reminder to persist in things I've started.

Ramblings aside.

New stuff on the list of my upcoming review_spotlight on Senka's skincare range ☆-(≥vO)

Also, it's almost the end of the Mid Autumn Festival. This year I had the chance to try this Suzhou's style mooncake. And it's oh-so-very-amazing!

Check out the pretty, yellow outer crust which resembles the full moon during mid autumn. This one's called the Moon Lady, such a befitting name!

It gives out a very yummy buttery scent.

Some more got salty egg yolk in the middle! Such guilty pleasure!!

Tomorrow's already the last chance to get them, I'm so-o gonna get some more.

Weeee~~ (≥ v ≤/)

Sponsored Review: Unboxing Best Buy World Hauls~!

I'll be reviewing some items from my sponsored hauls from Best Buy World today(⌒▽⌒)~♪ If you haven't heard of this online beauty/cosmetics site, read more about it(also purchasing how-tos) from my previous post here.

My parcel from BBW arrived promptly after I placed my order. Actually, it arrived the very next day! How awesome is that!

Ohlala~ Was super excited when I received it.

*eagerly unboxing*

So impressed with the products and service. Turns out, I'm not the only satisfied customer from Best Buy World ↓

Alrighty~ here are all the items I received (^o^/)

From left,

♥ Clinique's Stylish Flower Pattern Pouch, RM13

♥ Dior's Hydra Life Youth Essential Concentrated Sorbet Essence, 7ml for RM39 (R.P. RM57)
♥ Dior's Diorsnow White Reveal Day Essence, 7ml for RM35 (R.P. RM61)
♥ Estee Lauder's Sumptuous Extreme Lash Multiplying Volume Mascara, RM22 (R.P. RM42)

♥ Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Flirty Honey, RM34

♥ Estee Lauder's Pure Color Long-Lasting Lipstick in Fuchsia Fever, RM24

Now, just a short review on these items. First up is this Clinique's Almost Lipstick in Flirty Honey~

It feels more like a color tinted lip balm than a lippy really and it takes a couple of swipes for the sheer color to show.

The result is a very mild glossy tint that looks almost natural but gives my lip a pretty pink color ♥ Love it so much I've been using it very often!

↓ Don't you find the color pretty?

Personally, I would get this again and try other shades from the range of Clinique's Almost Lipstick too.  The other shade available at BBW is Black Honey. The color scares me a bit but if you like it, feel free to give it a try_then tell me how it turned out LOL (⌒▽⌒)

My second favorite from the BBW would be the Estee Lauder mascara.

The result_long eyelashes that doesn't clump up together.

See what wonders it does to my lashes. From nada to obvious looking lashes hahaha

I also love the essences and fuchsia lipstick. Oklah, that kinda makes everything from this haul LOL. I wanted to post photos for the lipstick review but realize I don't have makeup to go with it. My stash is mostly for natural and sweet make :/

Anyway, here's the final quick review on the essences.

They're both have a light texture and are mildly scented. Also, they feels really refreshing to the skin. The Dior snow White Reveal Essence supposedly target dark spots and preventing new ones while the Hydra Life essence works to "boost the effectiveness of subsequence applied skin care" and moisturizes the skin.

Regrettably, I can't tell whether they made a difference on my skin because I haven't been observing if there's any changes to my skin(Apologize about that).

On a final note, I hope my previous advert and these quick reviews have been useful for you, especially for new/would be BBWers. If you're interested to purchase any products I've reviewed on this post, you can find them in Best Buy World's

drugstore hauls~

Konnichiwa~!

Apologize for the week long hiatus. I've been busy doing 1001 stuff at the same time and helping my parents with house cleaning for the Chinese New Year~ So much that I've practically slump dead at the end of the day...(,XAX),

This evening I had some time off so after cleaning I went drugstore shopping~ As a reward for myself:P Actually it's more like a reward for 1 year of beauty blogging.

Yessie, it's officially 1 years as of this month!! (^O^)/ Thank YOU so much to those who has been following and reading my reviews and other blog posts. For that, you are freaking awesome! Thank you!!

Back to my drugstore haul LOL. Got myself the HadaLabo AHA+BHA Hyaluronic Acid Lotion and Liese Bubble Hair Color in Dark Chocolate~ ♥ Checking these two items out from my wishlist. I'll be making reviews for each of them sometime this month and keep all of you posted on my twitter v(≥vO)

Besides those two, I got myself a lil' something else_Hello Kitty gacha(or capsule)~ Hello Kitty merchandises are making it on shelves in Guardian pharmacy after Sanrio Hello Kitty Town kick off last year in Johor.

Wanted the gacha especially since they were released cause they're just so cute. I can't remember the last time I collected gachapon. I'm not sure if I want to get all the designs but there're like 36 different designs altogether wth.

Comes with really addictive colorful candy that can give you diabetes hahaha.

Now, when can I find Rilakkuma gacha in Malaysia?

Shopping & Hauls

August 2012 ViVi Malaysia issue is finally out~ Been hunting for one for weeks! X(

 

ViVi Malaysia 3rd Issue

Now I got so many magazines to read. Downloaded the entire 2012 issues of SEDA magazine scans and even Mori Girl Lesson scans I got from a Mori Girl blog I've been frequenting the past weeks. Gonna check out Fudge too after I finish reading all the scans.

OMG, I'm so obsessed with everything Mori these days!!ヾ(＠♡▽♡＠)ﾉ

 

SEDA July2012 Issue

Earlier this year I said I wanted to do some wardrobe overhauling, gyaru-style and now that I've got some time_and some cash_been shopping around KL. I'm IN LOVE with this one boutique at Tropicana City Mall called Lovely Charms Boutique! Frequented the boutique a couple of times and my colleague introduced me to the owner so now we're like good buddies. LOL.

Here's 2 apparels I got from her boutique_a stripe, peplum(?!) top which is so Tsubasa-inspired and this really sweet dress with lace collar. I can never get enough of laces, I tell you!

I actually purchased the top first and overlooked the dress. So when my colleague and I dropped by to chat and I saw the dress and I fell in love at first sight but was strap for cash, she had it reserved specially for me! Obviously, I got it-lah WITH a belt she gave me. I'm loving her boutique more! (TvT/)

 

hauls for my gyaru wardrobe makeover~!

Ooohhh~!!! Also, she has this array of really awesome handmade rings which I also fell in love with! Trust me, I don't remember how so many ended up in my shopping bag（*/∇＼*）

 

swooning over my new collection of rings! かわいい to the max~

Did I mention there'll be a new collection of the rings coming in end of this month? Well there will be. And guess who's gonna be the first to check them out? LOL. If I'm still around KL, that's it. I'm gonna miss the boutique when I get back to my hometown. She does have a fb page but doesn't sell the stuff online... ,(T^T,)

Anyway, here's my accessories hauls this month. Got some really pretty necklaces for my sis and I~

 

prezzie for sis's belated bday

 

pretty boho beaded necklace~!

I wore both the blouse and the necklace(as a bracelet) last weekend when I went hanging out with my bestie~ Paired it with my blush-colored lace handbag I got for a bargain early summer and my scallop lace skants a.k.a. skirt pants I got online ♡

Photo isn't so clear since I only took a quick shot in front of the elevator. Didn't wanna look like a camwhore b*tch there. A lil' too late for that maybe? *shrug*

 

Gyaru コーディ #01!

Other accessories I got~! I'm really obsessed with Gingham checkered, an influence from Ray mag.

 

A pair of earrings and plenty of bows hair clips!

 

While shopping around at Sunway Pyramid, I found this really awesome booth_ Gemini Leather selling colored leather accessories! The bright, bold colored flowers made of leather really got my attention. Swooning over they keychains, earrings and necklace.

OMG. I want them all!!!

Also, I found this shop Mori Zakka, as the name have suggested, the cutest Mori-inspired shop I've ever(and only) come across in KL! Their dressing room is so cute with a tiny window on the dressing room door covered with a curtain. Found a crocheted cardigan which I really like but decided against buying it since it was too expensive... :(
