Scent Affair Fragrant Body Wash - Pomegranate

When I saw the "KILLS 99.9% BACTERIA" phrase,
I am delighted! I love anti-bacterial body washes, 
and this Scent Affair Fragrant Bodywash in Pomegranate 
also has moisturizing effect (as written on the label). 
With its unique CaRe formulation, it gently cleanses our skin
whilst giving the anti-bacterial protection, and provides extra
hydration with its aloe vera moisturizer. 
The natural extracts of pomegranate will help 
nourish and rejuvenate our skin, and this body wash
is suitable to be used by anybody in the family,
young and old.

Made in Malaysia
Does not contain alcohol
Size (bottle with cap) : 275ml
Price :  RM7.80
Also available in pump bottle (725ml) and refill pack (500ml)
buy it from Hishop!

Farmasi CC Cream - Medium to Dark

I'm sure everyone knows about this saying,
"good things come in small packages"
*of course it's unsuitable for body washes,we need a lot of it hehe*
It suits this CC Cream from Farmasi/FCC ^_^
I'm grateful to HiShop team for making a survey form for us
so that they can send us products (esp makeup and skincare)
that suits ourselves the best. Eg: skin tone.
I received this CC Cream in medium to dark tone, 
and it suits my skin color excellently!

Upon application, it claims to give natural "untouched" look,
provides foundation-like coverage but due to its light formula it wont clog pores, 
gives oil-free finish, contains Multi-Vitamins 
and ingredients that help improve skin over time.
It contains Macadamia oil, vitamin B3, oat extract, silk protein,
collagen and Argan oil. 
Among its additional benefits are SPF25 and vitamin C.

I have tried this CC cream right after I opened the parcel
coz I was going out with my 3 lil sisters to watch Epic.
I'll make a different post about it later, but I definitely 
recommend it to you (unless you have fragrance allergic).
It glides on smoothly (I didn't apply moisturizer beforehand),
definitely corrects the unevenness of my skin tone, and
it does give me the natural "untouched" finish.
*my mom loves the finish so much she's planning to get 1 already*

Made in Turkey
Halal cosmetic product
(visit Fatin Liyana's and Maria Elena's review 
if you're still sceptical about the Halal status)
 Size : 50ml
Color range : Medium to dark / light to medium
Price : RM45.90
buy it from Hishop!

Overall I'm definitely happy with my May Ambassador Surprise Pack ^_^
It seemed like they know what I really love 
-anti bacteria body wash-
and it's like they heard what I've been screaming to own lately
-Farmasi CC Cream-
hehe :p

Assalamualaikum and Hello ! I have been meditating for quite some days to gain my strength just to make this post, hehe~ Well, for your information The Butterfly Project Malaysia will be organizing a Spa Party exclusively for 50 lucky bloggers! 

Do I want to join it ? OF COURSE! You see, I have missed a great deal of fun (bloggers events, cousins weddings, etc) lately due to my busy schedule at UiTM (padan muka siapa suruh aktif sangat). If you ask me, I rarely have the weekends to myself as there will always be things to attend to like modules, class projects, or events organized by the organizations or student's clubs. Even during the holidays pun ada project jugak,  some appearing so sudden with a mandatory presence required and I had to cancel whatever activity I had planned to do. Me iz sad :'( 

Anyhoos, I wanna forget the sad past and live the new exciting presence and future! Hehe, I'm always a positive person, but quite shy (what's wrong with my head). So you see, I shall give out 3 reasons on why I would like to attend this spa party. Here they are!

Assalamualaikum and hello !

Ladies, here's a special announcement for you

^_^ 

Do you know that Sabrina from Vixen Deity 

is hosting a giveaway now?

And do you know what she's giving away?

It's La Senza goodies and summore that she picked on her own :D

I'm not gonna reveal the prizes here, go and witness it by your own!

Hurry up ladies!

Don't miss the fun, support Sabrina and 

check out her giveaway here 

^_^

Good luck everybody

Assalamualaikum and hello everyone! 

Here I'm gonna review the May edition of Bag of Love, 

with the theme Best of Beauty ^_^

Here's what the bag looks this time

(do you know that Bag of Love change their bag design monthly?)

posh right? I just love the silky smooth feeling when I ran my fingers along the bag.

It is quite spacious too, if you're thinking of making it your travel makeup bag,

then it's just the right one! 

here's what inside this month's bag!

I'm very happy coz I've never tried any of these products before.

there are 5 main products included in this month's bag

First is the Crabtree & Evelyn Somerset Meadow Hand Therapy.

It retails at RM30 each (full size).

I've tried this with my mom and sisters (sharing is caring, hehe)

and nobody can hate this, seriously.

It gives an immediate moisturizing effect and the smell is wonderful ^_^

Next is Calvin Klein Eternity EDP and Eternity for Men EDT

Both full sizes are 50ml, and they retail at RM254 (EDP) and RM209 (EDT)

I received vials with 1.2ml worth of product for each

In my opinion, the EDP's smell is quite strong and not really up to my liking for everyday perfume

However as several hours passed by, I think it's bearable to my preference :)

Glad to receive this one as I'm a perfume fan ^_^

When I saw this, I thought "Am I old enough to use this?" considering that I'm just 21 years old and 

do I really need to use youth restoring serum?

But last night I stumbled upon some beauty related articles 

saying that women should start using anti-aging product in their twenties.

And then I stumbled upon other articles saying that in our twenties, we should focus on

wearing sunscreen religiously and say no to smoking.

However, I'm not so sure yet of what type of anti-aging products that girls in their twenties should use.

The packet I received here contains 7 capsules.

The price for 60 capsules are RM320, and RM420 for 90 capsules.

It claims to help reduce fine lines by replenishing the skin's natural ceramides, 

moisture-capturing lipids essential for maintaining firm, smooth, younger-looking skin.

i just wanna share my findings with you guys ^_^

Anti-Aging in Your Twenties : Too Much Too Soon?

I'm aware that Dove has been expanding their line ever since it made its debut with shampoo.

I have never tried any bath products from Dove so I think this comes right on time!

The smell of this body wash is sickly sweet, and I think the whole bag smells wonderful 

because of this darling. hehe~

This is a full sized product, retailing at RM6.90 for 200ml

I am the happiest person when I receive hair care products that are totally suitable with my hair!

I received a 30ml Kerastase Bain Oleo-Relax which is anti-frizz, 

smoothing shampoo for dry and rebellious hair. 

It claims to leave hair soft, silky and under control.

It retails at RM78 for 250ml.

these are some extras that Mi Mi included for us too, yayy!

~2 sachets of Kerastase Oleo-Relax smoothing masque for dry, rebellious hair~

~1 sachet of Crabtree & Evelyn Lavender Body Lotion~

last but not least, there are some vouchers/discount cards too!

-Crabtree & Evelyn 20% off on toilteries products

-Amante Basic Manicure

-Calvin Klein PWP discount voucher

Overall, I'm truly satisfied with the presentation of May bag from Bag of Love.
Mi Mi mixed the brands well for high-end products, medium and low-end products in a bag.

She is also excellent in ensuring that the bag contains a mix of products like

hand cream/lotions, body bath, perfume, facial products, and hair care.

You get one product for each different use, isn't that sweet?

^_^

For those who didn't know, Bag of Love is currently a 1 woman show by Mi Mi.

She is helped by her family members in running the business. 

I would like to suggest Mi Mi to enhance the features in Bag of Love's website 

such as adding in a beauty profile option for all subscribers.

It would be a lot nicer if subscribers get products that suits them well, 

like type of shampoos or type of facial cleansers 

as people have different type of skin and hair.

Well I think that's all for now, and I really can't wait for June's Bag of Love!

Assalamualaikum and Hello!

Well, I definitely shall crown Star Trek : Into Darkness as one of the awesome movie of 2013

no kidding.

I have never watched any Star Trek movies before 

this but I'll force somebody to download it for me, hehe!

Thanks Nuffnang for the ticket sponsor :)

Don't worry I'm not gonna tell you any spoilers here. 

The movie was 2 hours, and I entered the hall 20 minutes late due to my carelessness. 

A bit sad there, but it was all cured as the plot was satisfying to me.

Chris Pine was the ultimate eye candy in that movie,
I think he pulled his character well as Captain Kirk. 

In my opinion, the cast selection was definitely well made
as I could see that all of them were really into their characters. 

The movie contains a balanced scene of happiness, jokes, crisis, anger, sadness,
and it definitely teaches us about teamwork and sacrifices
that a great and brave leader are willing to take. 

Star Trek : Into Darkness official website

To all Burger King lovers, did you know that Burger King is currently offering  

Upsize the value meal to a large meal 

and get a free limited edition Star Trek coupon notepad. 

Optional add on for RM 3.00is the Meteor Crunch Sundae 

which is vanilla soft serve icecream with a swirl of caramel sauce 

topped with crunchy bits of Cookie Crisps. 

Assalamualaikum and hello!

Assalamualaikum and hello!

I'm home now, safe from the depressing campus XD

Thank you to the admin of university, 

we got 4 days of holiday just for PRU

However, the ecstacy of being at home is slightly diminished 

as I'm down with flu

Can't stop sneezing, throat is burning, and my body aches.

:'(

BUT

The flu is not going to stop me from writing!

Hehe~I have a sweet product to share with you guys,

which is Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser

^_^

In my previous post I promised to review this darling after seeing its effects,

I won my first bottle of Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser from a facebook giveaway.

I started using it in mid January 2013, and it only finishes today. 

It lasts quite some time, isn't it ?

Well for your information, I have a very small face and that explains why it can last for 3 and a half months.

Now here's some description of Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser :

image taken from Yadah Malaysia facebook

INGREDIENTS :
Water, Potassium Cocoate, Decyl Glucoside, Glycerin, Sorbitol, Potassium Cocoyl Glycinate, Potassium Castorate, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Oil, Potassium Lactate, Arginine, Melissa Officinalis Extract, Opuntia Ficus-Indica Extract, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Flower Water, Sodium Citrate, Tocopheryl Acetate, Benzyl Alcohol

MY VERDICT ?

When I first started using Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser, my face was in its uttermost disastrous state. It was a few days after my final exam. My face was plagued with numerous pimples as a successful sign of stress that invaded me due to massive assignment workload. It was a scary sight I couldn't believe myself either that my face could become that bad. 

So what happened after I started using Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser ?

It is magic!! After two weeks of use, I could see all my pimples disappearing, while my blackheads and whiteheads are reduced/less prominent for public view. 
During my menses, only 1 pimple managed to decorate my face when I'm using Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser (before this those nasty pimples were everywhere when it's time of the month). 

This cleanser has a citrusy scent, it is very refreshing and I dunno why, it makes me happy while cleansing my face, hehe! 

I can say that the routine of cleansing my face using Yadah Bubble Deep Cleanser twice a day is what I anticipated the most every day :p

Besides all that, I found that I need only a small amount of this cleanser pumped on my palm to cleanse up my entire face effectively. 

It lathers up really well, not like some foam type of cleanser that disappears upon contact with skin. Caution, at the beginning I took 1 full pump and god, the massive amount of foam was more than what I need and I felt like I wasted more than I actually need to use. 

So, if you have small face like me, I advise you to just push the pump till half of it's level. 1 full pump and you will end up with twice usage worth of product on your palm. 

This cleanser is fragrance free, colorant free, paraben free, mineral oil free, contains extracts of Opuntia Ficus (organic cactus), contains natural vegetable ingredients 99.9%, and it has no chemical surface active agents. 

for more info click here

I give this product 5/5 stars and I really recommend it to you guys

^_^
It retails at RM49 per bottle (150ml), and you can get it at SaSa, Stage/Stage Asia, HiShop Malaysia, Hermo and Zalora.

psst, there's an offer! Print out this coupon and get RM10 off for every purchase of RM40 only at SaSa outlets! hurry up!!

so, which one of them should I review next ?
