MAKE UP TIPS-HOW TO GET A SOPHISTICATED LOOK

Make Up is the tool women use in order to prep up their look every time they are going out. Make up allows women to feel confident and it is a secret kit for them to cover any unwanted spots or pimple before stepping out of the house. Another benefit of make up is that it allows women to change up their look from naturally blushed to super cute to dramatically sexy. Going for sexy look is not that easy as there are certain steps of make up tricks which women have follow.

The first one to create a sexy look is to target the eyes. Women could start exploring the multiple colours in the eyeshadow pallete and experiment a smokey eye look. 

1. The first step to get a sexy smokey eye look is by wedging black creamy eyeliner into the upper and lower lashes of your eyes. 

2. Then, soften it up by rubbing it in gently and layer a black coloured eyeshadow on top. 

3. After that, apply a shimmery grey eyeshadow colour on the upper lids and blend it together. 

Once you are with the eyes, let move to lips that look supple and moisturize naturally. Women should never look down upon the nude natural lip look as it looks sexier then you could ever think of. To get a natural moisturize lip is easy! 

1. First, apply some lip balm onto your lips to avoid dry cracked lips and then select a lipstick colour which matches your natural lip tone. 

2. Browse through the lipstick colour shade selection and choose the perfect one for you. 

3. After all that is done, top your lip with another layer of lip balm or add some shine with lip gloss. 

Other than that, having a blushed cheek will definitely make you look adorable and fresh. As different women have different skin tone colour, choose a blusher which is suitable for you. For the fair skin tone ladies, a pink colour blusher will be perfect for you to show off your sweetness. While the olive and darker skin tone ladies, could opt for a golden or copper coloured blusher. 

1. Apply it on your cheekbones and swab it in the corner of your eyes and tip of your nose for a naturally blushed look.

TIPS: SECRET TO FLAWLESS SKIN?

Do you notice that there are many advertisements promoting flawless skin that sound more like "mission impossible"? Well, no doubt that there are few people who just have flawless skin with very simple routine like using plain water to wash the face but majority of us are not blessed with such skin especially once we hit puberty. I really dislike bursting everyone’s bubbles that some of these advertisements are photoshopped or edited to look flawless.  Even some certain claims by some are actually not true but I can't mention it here because I am sure going to get sued or might not live until tomorrow.


So, here I am sharing some of these secret of flawless skin.


1. Really strict diet
   I guess this is a no brainer.  Well, one can eat everything but there is a need for a balanced diet.  A smooth skin usually consist of a lot of vegetables and fruits.  There is very little processed sugar in food as sugar that is well known for clogging the pores and cause the loss of collagen making a person look old.

Of course eating a ice cream once in a month is not going to hurt your face but eating it everyday will sure do.  Even if you do not get diabetes from it, your complexion is sure going to hurt and you will look older.

Of course don't make it that you will only eat vegetables and fruits which is really crazy because we are not herbivores and therefore we do need protein in our life.  I mean a balanced diet is good for the face in a long run but try not to be extreme.

A healthy complexion is also a sign that one do eat a balanced meal so if you are unsure what is a balanced meal, do check the food pyramid.  Don't just eat vegetables with rice because it won't get you look 10 years younger.

Just eating certain supplement will make you look 10 years younger?  DO you certainly believe that kind of bullshit?  Please do check if the REAL person do look like that all the time and if it is not,  the photo certainly edited.  There is not a single product that can actually make you look 10 years younger if you eat it for only 2weeks!  If there is, why is there is a need for Botox??

It is a supplement and one should also still have good balanced diet to maintain your looks.  Maintaining the looks is not easy and certainly not a one day MAGIC.  If there is, do let me know because I am sure interested in this.




2. Good genes
Well, if you have genes that makes your skin as smooth as it is .  We start with a good skin until puberty creates havoc in our hormones.  Well, if you have good skin that is not affected by the imbalance of hormone, then it is one of the reason your skin is good even even with just water.  As we age, our skin get clogged up but it will won't happen until we hit puberty.

The rest of us commoner with no good genes will have to just find ways to just tone down the skin from break outs and can only dream of flawless skin.  I understand this because I do not have good  flawless skin' genes in me and I always envy my friends who does not need to even use anything at all. Do you believe it when she said she doesn't even remember if she washed her face but have flawless skin?



3. A good dermatologist
Well, a GOOD dermatologist does make a differences in your skin.  It doesn't have to be a real expensive one but the price is not on the consultation but the products and medicine that comes with it.  So, do a lot of research before going to any dermatologist.  Not every dermatologist is the same.  Some are good and some just want your money.

It would be more expensive if you are going for procedure such as laser, fillers and peels. Generally, one would need to visit the dermatologist a few times before you can actually see results and of course nothing is miracle.  Well if all the Korean celebrities owe their beautiful skin to their dermatologist, so you can also save up for it.  Of course, beauty comes with a price.

In Malaysia, laser usually cost around RM15k++ , peels around RM400++ and other procedure will cost you around RM400++ so just be prepared with that amount of money.

4. Good skincare products for your skin type
This is one thing that people like me could do for ourselves considering I am not rich to run to the dermatologist all the time.  Please check out the type of skin one has before thinking I want this this this this this and the endless list goes on for you. Of course everyone want a flawless skin (who don't right?) but the first step of knowing your skin is to know the type of skin you have and your age.  Do not just figure out your skin type just from one opinion.  Please get a professional help and what I mean is see a dermatologist if your are really unsure of your skin type.

What I mean by good skincare products NO, you DO NOT NEED to use 15 products a day.  Depending on your skin type, using a few products is more than enough.  No use of 'drowning' or force feed your skin.  Combine with a balanced diet and lifestyle, your skin will change its type soon.
Not every brands is good for everybody so you will need to do some research first before actually trying it out.  Don't just run and buy the products just because everyone raves about it.  Trust me, I have been there and I do felt 'cheated' so it is better to wait and research on it first. After all, you only have one face and skin.

REVIEW ON DEOPROCE SNAIL MASK

Are you into Korean trends?  It has been few years since snail secretion Hit the world with it healing properties and it is still one of the favourite skincare ingredients besides the bicarbonate soda which is in trend now.  It helps to moisturise and heal the skin from the scars.  Many that had tried snails products and mask were amazed with the results and that is why it is among of the favourites.

Of course, do not think of snails crawling on your face as there is no slimy or smelly feeling with snails products.  So, let's get to know this Deoproce snail mask =)  .


This Deoproce Snail Paper Mask with Snail Secretion extract that is effective for skin cell regeneration, repair and promote skin elasticity and smoothness while working together with collagen and elastin inside your skin. It is recommended for all skin types.

A great way to nourish tired and rough skin is to apply facial masks, specifically facial mask sheets. The function of face masks is to provide an intense nourishment of essential ingredients to help your skin become younger looking, soft and smooth.

Here is the list of ingredients.

Here is the direct link to the product.





Applying Facial Mask

· Cleanse your face with Deoproce cleansing foam and rinse your face with lot of warm water.Even if you don't put on makeup, your facial skin is still exposed to the dirt and pollution in the air which will only clog our pores.

· Good idea to open the pores so that when you apply the facial mask, all the nutrition is immediately absorbed into your face.

· Open by peeling the sachet and apply a face mask sheet by pressing it across the face, avoiding sensitive areas such as eyes and mouth.

· Wait for of 15 to 20 minutes for the nutrition to absorb in the skin.


· Remove and gentlypatting or massage your face with the remaining essence to enhance deeper absorption into your skin.

To soothe and maintain your moist and nourished skin, apply plenty of Deoporce moisturizing cream or lotion
For better result, the frequency of mask application should be around every alternate 2nd or 3rd day.

So here is the results after using the mask.  I find the mask helps to reduce the redness and the dryness of the skin especially my skin since I get burned easily.  Of course one mask is not going to produce results that is even more amazing than going for cosmetic procedures so you would need to use it diligently to see results.  Do look for snail mask that is beneficial to help the healing of your skin. Snail mask is suitable for all type of skin and there is no icky or any weird smell to it.  In fact the mask has a nice scent to it =) .

REVIEW ON L'OREAL PARIS MAT MAGIQUE ALL IN ONE COMPACT WITH SPF 34 PA+++

Good day everyone =).

Many do use powder on daily basis especially when one started using makeup.  I think it is one of the staple makeup products besides lip products.  However,one common problem that I find is that many will apply the powder thickly in order to help ease out the oil on the face. Normally the powder will disappear and leave the face looking so oily by noon itself.

the box is also in metallic pink which is so pretty

So introducing to you the L'oreal Paris Mat Magique all in one compact that helps making your face matte without the dry, cakey and plastic look of the face.

Modern Matte is all about creating a light, smooth effect that’s radiant and fresh. Imagine shine-free with perfectly poreless-looking effectskin that lasts all day without the need for touch-ups.

With the all-new Mat Magique All-in-One Compact by L’Oréal Paris, you can instantly transform your skin. A beauty breakthrough in the form of a superior unique mineral: Natural Volcanic Perlite mattifies skin and absorbs sebum, giving you a shine-free, freshly-applied look for hours on end.

This all-in-one compact powder works three ways for a lasting Modern Matte look:

1) Primes – Mat Magique’s skin balancing properties prepare skin for a flawlessly matte or shine-free finish that lasts up to 12 hours*, even in a hot and humid environment like Malaysia. Best of all, you don’t have to touch up!

2) Covers – Mat Magique helps to conceal blemishes and imperfections, providing the ultimate coverage like any foundation, while caressing skin with a veil of lightweight powder. With its refined airy smoothing finish, skin is instantly transformed.

3) Protects – With SPF34 PA+++, Mat Magique offers broad spectrum protection against UVA/UVB rays, making sure your skin stays shielded from potential aggressors for long-term beauty.

L’Oréal ParisMat Magique All-in-One Compact is available in three shades that are specially-formulated for South East Asian skin tones: R1 Rose Ivory, N2 Nude Vanilla and G2 Golden Ivory.

Here is how the box looks like

pretty chic pink casing

the back is transparent-i got the Rose Ivory

the powder comes with a latex sponge and mirror

I got the one Rose Ivory.  It is compatible with my skin tone unless I apply a few layer which is certainly not the right way to apply powder.

sorry for the different lighting.  I only apply a layer of a very thin powder here

see the differences?  My eye bags are already out but my face still stay matte even after 10 hours

  True to the claim, it does keep my face matte throughout the whole day until I wash my face.  It doesn't cake on my face and looks very natural unless you apply a lot (4 to 5 layers of powder) .  The sponge that comes with it makes the application easy and the power is really soft on my face.  I prefer to use the latex of sponge provided as really help the powder to adhere to the face.  I think this is truly a good drug stores product to have.

L’Oréal ParisMat Magique All-in-One Compact R1 Rose Ivory, N2 Nude Vanilla and G2 Golden Ivory retails at RM39.90, refills are available for RM19.90.

REVIEW ON MARY COHR LIGHT MOISTURISING CREAM

Mary Cohr Light Moisturizing Cream
Via 

The box- ingredients list.

This care cream diffuses hydrating plant active ingredients in the skin, holding water in the skin and giving dehydrated skin back its radiance and beauty.

The skin is well hydrated and protected, it feels completely comfortable again and the wrinkles caused by dehydration are plumped.

ACTIVE COMPONENT

Aloe Vera Extracts : Nourish, hydrate, facilitate cell regeneration and soften the skin.

Jojoba Oil : Nourishes the skin and reinforces its hydrolipidic film.

USE : Apply daily, morning and evening, to the whole of the face.

there is the Mary Cohr cover on the glass jar

very opaque light cream

 There is no spatula provided so I suggest you to have one and not dip your fingers in it to avoid contamination.

Mary Cohr light moisturising cream after applying immediately

The jar is actually quiet heavy since it is made of glass.  So if you are bringing it for travelling, I suggest that you transfer it to the smaller glass jar for lighter travelling.

The cream is opaque white and turn transparent after applying on the skin leaving a light sheen on the skin.

I love the smell of the cream. It is light and surely not overpowering.  The smell lasted for few hours after applying so don't worry even if you do not really like the smell.

It is certainly is light and not too heavy on my skin so I use it during the day when I need something extra to help hydrate the skin.  It doesn't leave a greasy feeling so I sure do like it.  It moisturises the skin and doesn't cause breakout so I use this during the day.  No SPF so you could use this at night too.=)

Mary Cohr Light Moisturizing Cream retails at RM158.  Made in France.

REVIEW ON CARBONATED WATER, SPARKLING WATER (KOREAN TREND IN 2014)

Carbonated water (also known as club soda, soda water, sparkling water, seltzer water or fizzy water)

I wrote Here and Here about some of the Korean trends. It has became really popular to clean the skin with carbonated water and there are so many products using carbonated water or another word for it would be sparkling water.  Even Laneige came up with the sparkling water mask.

Many Korean and Japanese celebrities use this carbonated water in their skincare routines and was said that it helps to clean the pores for a flawless skin.  Of course everyone would want flawless skin right?

Thanks to that I have finally decided to give it a try and so I bought this carbonated drink Spritzer from Giant.  I was curious on the taste and so I decided to drink.  The results?  It taste just like mineral water and with a bubble popping inside the mouth.  My stomach was a little warm and I was wonder if it is just me feeling that.  Do not have to worry as it do not contain any sugar or calories.

1.  Prepare 1:1 ratio of carbonated water and mineral water for the cleansing.

2.  Wash your face first.

3. Then dip your face inside the water with the eyes close for 10 seconds.

4.  Do not rinse.  Just wait for the face to dry and follow with your skincare routine.

5.  Use it once in a week for sensitive and dry skin.

So, the results.  I don't know if it is this brand or me alone.  There is no bubbles forming at my face when I dip my face in it probably the concentration for this brand is not high enough.  It just feel like washing my face with plain water.

I did it 3 times in a week and my face were less oiler.  It is good to help regulate the oil in the pores but other than that I am not sure what it will do.  One would have to do it more than one month to see obvious results such brightening and cleaner face.  As for me, I am too lazy to keep dipping my face in the water so I stop doing it already after 2 weeks.

I prefer to just buy products that contain higher concentration of those carbonated water in it to see much faster effect.  I am not patience enough for this.

So, have you tried this carbonated water or sparkling water trend?


Products retails at RM3.90 per bottle of 1L.  For more information, please visit Spritzer official website. Product is not sponsored.  However, the opinions expressed here are my own and honest as always.

MAKEUP: KOREAN NUDE GLOWY MAKEUP&GRADIENT LIPS 2014

Natural makeup is such a huge thing these days and not everyone can go out with smokey eyes on daily basis especially in Malaysia.  So, I think many Malaysian find natural makeup one of their favourite looks.  With the extreme hot and humid weather, I find most of my makeup will melt down even before the end of the day.  Therefore, I do change a little of the normal makeup that the Korean do.

Basically, their usual consist of drawing the eyebrow straight with eyebrow mascara, cc cream, cc cushion, lip tint&peach blusher.  They do not use powder as it will take away the 'glow'.

As for me, this is how I normally do my makeup for a natural look.  Actually no one notices anything on the days I don't even makeup.  So, it is like makeup but no makeup.  Oh, gosh.  What am I talking about?

1.  Just fill in the spares very lightly to balance the eyebrow for a straight eyebrow.  No obvious changes to the eyebrow.Do not need to draw too thick or too dark.  Korean eyebrows look natural.

2.  Mix the bb&cc cream.  Apply the mixture on the face with a rubbery kind of puff.  Pat it on the face.

3.  The apply a little CC cream/CC cushion on the parts that you want to highlight such a cheek bone and forehead.

4.  Apply liptint using the gradient lip style. Use lip concealer after applying the lip tint.

No touch up. Does it look natural? Oh and sorry, I forgot mascara or fake eyelashes.

Sorry look angry here but the gradient lips look more obvious here.

So, here is it =),  I don't apply a lot of bb cream unless you are using those water resistance or waterproof type or else it would all melt few hours later and mix with the oil and cause skin trouble later.  In the room itself is 31 Celsius.
For those working in aircon room-use cc cream or CC cushion since it contain more moisture than BB cream.



You do not have to use all the products I list here as it is just suggestion.

Here is the list of product use:
1. ZA Eyebrow pencil / clear eyebrow mascara /brow shadow. Go for your natural hair colour.
2. LC derma CC cream (get one that is water resistance)
3. Tony Molly BB cream (again get one that is water resistance)
4. light coral blusher or very light pink (MAC blusher- azalea in the afternoon) ( you could use none as well)
5. liptint in orange or pink (I used Elianto lip colour, lipstick mix with lipbalm)
6. Brown eyeliner (optional)

Tips&tricks
1. I mix the bb cream with cc cream for a healthy glow look and for enough coverage.  My ratio is about 2:1     .  If your skin do not have any skin problem to cover or have dry skin, then just use cc cream or cc    cushion.
2. Korean generally use cc cream that is one tone lighter than their natural skin colour for a fairer &brighter looking effect.  If you find that is just too 'white' &unnatural , then mix it with bb cream or foundation. You could skip it if you have flawless skin.
3. I use a rubbery kind of puff to just pat the mixture of cc&BB cream onto my face for even coverage.
4.  Highlight is done in a very subtle way with just using cc cream or cc cushion. (reason for the 'light' colour)
5. No bronzer or shimmery makeup products.
6. You could use clear mascara and only apply the fake eyelashes(cut them into few pieces) at outer corner of the eyes.



Ps: This year makeup focus more on the lips instead of on eyes.  So, go for orange or pink lips with gradient effects =)  .

FOOD REVIEW ON KLUANG RAIL COFFEE

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE OUTLET

Since 1938, this Kluang rail coffee is very famous.


Ermm, I did not know that the Kluang rail coffee has another outlet. In my mind, it must be some very looking ancient depleted going to fall apart look kind of traditional shop so I do not expect that it is looking like this?


I am way too imaginative. Although it was a working day, this outlet is full with people and we have to wait for about 15minutes before being served. I have no idea what is wrong with me ordering nasi lemak. The waiting hour for my nasi lemak was 45minutes and I was already imagining strangling the waiter and shaking the sense into her! If she is playing the Dinner Dash, I would have left ago with a huge red face and fuming cloud over my head.

It is impossible that the next table with more complicated food has arrived and all my other friends’s food has arrived except for mine!


What is so difficult to make the nasi lemak??????? Does it really 45minutes for it to arrive? That is only after I started asking where my food is and the waiter nonchalant ask to check the receipt! How can my food not arrive when it is already paid????? Luckily a friend deals with it.


That is why I dislike eating outside. For the amount I paid, my food has not arrived. If not for the company I am, I might have left. I guess food does taste better when you are laughing and enjoyed the people you are with.

Let’s go into the food. Here is some of the food but mine is only the rail coffee cendol and the nasi lemak. The rest is ordered by friends so I have no idea how they tasted.

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE the interior

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE ROTI BUN BAKAR

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE ROTI BUN BAKAR

This their famous A must try Bread. Presentation wise, it look a little bit flatten and very traditional.  The bread is a little dry but quite good in the sense that it is fluffy.  The bread is already applied with generous butter.  The kaya texture is just nice and not too thick but there is not much although you might there is a lot since there is some outside the bread.  Kaya is not as fragrant as I thought it will be but it is okay.

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE CENDOL TEA

This is the tea cendol. The drink is not too sweet and the cendol has pandan fragrant in it. The tea on the other hand is just normal so I was actually blaming myself that I should have tried the coffee instead.

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE RAIL NASI LEMAK

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE CURRY MEE

KLUANG RAIL COFFEE PORRIDGE

This is the rail nasi lemak that has made imagined bad thoughts. Because of it as well, I managed to control myself and snapped the photos first before I get into eating mode. Normally I will just forget everything when the food is in front of me. The chicken is grilled just nice. The meat is is quite soft but it could be softer I think. The sambal spiciness is just nice but for those who dislikes spiciness, it is better not to order this. It is not hot to the extend that one have to drink few gallons of water. I think the spiciness level is probably just 2 out of 5. Rice is not bad. Anchovies and groundnuts is generous. Overall it is not bad.


I guess I am always the unlucky ones to get bad service each time I am in the restaurants.

FOOD REVIEW ON YUEN FATT MOONCAKES

Chinese Valentine Day which is the Mid Autumn festival is coming.  It is actually the celebration for the Chinese community.  I remembered the lantern and mooncakes that I ate throughout the years.  The unforgettable one I ate was the Green tea flavoured mooncake which tasted like eating perfume.  My whole face turned red from eating it.  The rest of the mooncakes were given by friends and I truly appreciated all of them.

This year, it is the first time I get a box of a very unique mooncakes and I truly appreciate it from the bottom of my heart.  Let's check it out why it is so unique. =)

Address and phone number of YUEN FATT MOONCAKES

YUEN FATT MOONCAKES

 It is the famous Shanghai mooncakes from Kluang.  Beautiful box and I love the look. =) It makes a good gift for your friends and loves one.

YUEN FATT SIGNATURE MOONCAKES

I was wondering what this weird looking pasty was and upon inspection, I realized that it was suppose to be mooncake!  It looks like a banana, rugby ball or some UFO plates to me.

The holes indicates the types of filling is has. Three holes for pandan flavoured and lotus paste.  No holes indicates the black beans paste.  One holes for one egg yolk and two for two egg yolks.

YUEN FATT MOONCAKES PANDAN FLAVOURED.  This is the best flavoured other than lotus paste

What is unique about this Yuen Fatt mooncakes and others lies in the pastry’ crust.  The crust is  similar to pies as it crumbles upon cutting.  It tasted very crispy and would not stick to your mouth.  The sweetness is just nice too.  Eating it with tea is definitely good and well should I say one of the enjoyable moment in life.

Moreover, I am really touched for bringing this all the way from Kluang to Mersing.  The effort is very much appreciated so I decided to put this into my blog for future embalmment of memories.

Sorry, I am not sure how much this cost so I figured it around RM6-RM8 per piece. No pork or lard.

SKINCARE TIPS: DIY TOMATO MASK

Every time someone asked me for something cheap and natural, I would recommend the DIY tomato mask. It helps to get rid of scars and help heal the skin faster since tomatoes contain vitamin A. Well, if you are lazy, then be ready to pay more money for readymade products that contain those amazing ingredients to do the work.

I am certainly not a certified skin doctor or a chemist that is able to look into ingredients so I can’t tell which products will suit which type of skin but most people are compatible with tomatoes and honey. Not everyone is suitable with aloe vera because there are many who are allergic with it especially if you have eczema and dry skin.

A friend even told me the secret of her mother’ to look young. One of it is the tomato mask or scrub. The reason some do not like it because it does drip and some dislike the slimy feeling on the skin.

I find that tomato is sure of the DIY mask that I like the best. If you keep doing the tomato mask every day, you could see the results in a week.

Tomato mask is suitable for sensitive acne prone skin because it helps to heal and tone down my sensitive skin. It is just that I am not so hardworking now due to water cut issues making it troublesome to do mask.

The tomato Juice

1. Choose a red tomato.

2. Cut the tomato into half.

3. Scoop up the juice and the flesh.

4. Use a cotton pad to dip into the juice.

5. Then separate the cotton pad and put it on the face.  I prefer using cotton pad because the pulp won't drip on to my face while I seat.  I don't like to lie down as I will go into sleeping mode.

6. Remove the cotton pad after 30 minutes.

7. Rinse with plain water.

Some can feel the difference on the first day itself but generally after one week if you are hardworking.  Try it at home =)


Do not try this if you have skin allergic to tomatoes.
