REVIEW ON ST.IVES DAILY HYDRATING VITAMIN E

This body lotion is really moisturizing on my skin.  It absorb fast into the skin too.  I find that the smell is amazing too and it does help with the body hydration if I use for a long term.  I think other than that, my body skin is okay but I am getting lazier and so I did neglect my body skin so they are actually dry.

I found out that some apply it on the face as well but I do not dare to do that since my face is kind of sensitive and acne prone while hers is dry.  Overall, this is an affordable body lotion and it does help in hydration.

There are glycerin and glycerin does help to bring in moisturise into the skin.  I just do not dare to use on my face.  I read some use it on their face to moisturise their skin.

FOOD REVIEW KING'S CONFECTIONERY (TBS)

King's Confectionery
Address: Unit L4-39, Fourth Floor, Terminal Bersepadu Selatan, Bandar Tasik Selatan, Kuala Lumpur, Sungai Besi

This is one of the two bakery in the TBS bus station and I notice many would buy from this shop as it is cheaper and because of the location. One would immediately notice this bakery as it is near the escalator.

The cake taste was not hard and the size is quite big for Rm2.70. I think it is worth the money. The chocolate cream is not too sweet and it is just nice. However, I would prefer if there are more chocolates syrup inside the cake but there is none. Overall, reasonable price for a cake. It also come in a nicely plastic box which I think make it looks more expensive than it really is.

FOOD REVIEW ON BROTHER JOE IN MERSING

Brother Joe
Address: Stall No. 2, Jalan Sheikh Hassan, Kampung Sri Lalang, Mersing Town

With a weather like this. It is cold and dry, one need to take more water and drinking coconut water is really a good remedy for health. Coconut juice is also good for those who is having ‘demam denggi’. This place is open from the afternoon but people usually visit this place at night for their famous ikan bakar. This is the place that I usually go for my coconut juice and it is just besides the sea so one can enjoy the view of the sea while eating their food. The only thing was the wind might be too strong. Coconut juice is fresh and it is really the young coconut as I always feel really full with just one coconut.

FOOD REVIEW ON KOONG WOH TONG 恭和堂

Koong Woh Tong 恭和堂
Location: LG-069, Lower Ground Floor, Mid Valley Megamall

I was actually surprised that they shops only sell three main things and it turns out that this is a family business own by few generation already. I notice many would choose to takeaway their tea in forms of plastic cups but I prefer to enjoy the environment while sipping the tea slowly. The shops is well organized with simple and traditional choice or furniture. The tea comes in traditional porcelain bowl and customer would just drink it from the bowl. No spoon provided. The service is good as you can just mentioned your condition and the lady will suggest which tea is better for you. I normally get the herbal black tea called wong lo kat which is bitter and helps with getting rid of toxic. The bitter taste doesn’t linger for long inside the mouth. I slept better that night since the tea really reduces the toxic in my body. Overall, this is the place to go for herbal tea if you are lazy to do it yourself.
the taste
It cost RM1.70 per bowl

The five flower tea is sweet but not those sugary type that will cause you nausea.  It really felt cooling and smell the great.  The taste and the pure freshness of newly brewed five flower linger inside the mouth even after finish sipping the tea.  The sweetness does go down the throat and i felt one is transport to an area with five flower tea.  Great choice for those who do not like bitter herbal tea.

 I love the softness of the herbal jelly and it is especially good for a hot day. I find the grass jelly a bit bitter but it is bearable because we are also given the sugar syrup to combat it. The grass jelly does help to relieve my sore throat and my family love it for the feeling of eating soft herbal jelly. Eating herbal jelly is good for complexion and it is one of the traditional Chinese way for clear, soft and young skin. I would definitely come again as this is good for busy and lazy people like me. Price is reasonable.
RM8 for small

REVIEW ON SALLY HANSEN COMPLETE SALON MANICURE 550 ALL FIRED UP

Sorry for the lack of post as my laptop is with the 'doctor' for more than two weeks and I have to do this at the cyber cafe =( .

Chinese New Year is around the corner and normally the nail colour chosen to accompany the clothes would be red.  I am not really a fan of red nail polish but i think for Chinese New Year, it would be great.

Is this pretty?

SALLY HANSEN COMPLETE SALON MANICURE 550 ALL FIRED UP

SALLY HANSEN COMPLETE SALON MANICURE 550 ALL FIRED UP

SALLY HANSEN COMPLETE SALON MANICURE 550 ALL FIRED UP

The Complete Salon Manicure comes with 7benefits:
Base Coat
Strengthener
Growth Treatment
Color
Top Coat
Chip-Resistant
Gel Shine


The range comes with fancy names that matches the colour.  I got this All Fired Up and it really matches the red colour inside the bottle.  It does look like having a bottle of fire or blood boiling inside the bottle.  I  imagine too much. XD

The bottle is heavy as it is made of sturdy glass.  The colour is visible from the bottle itself.  Application was super easy with the application wand and it felt just like applying gel nail polish.  The end result was so even and beautiful.  The colour was also opaque and shine just from using one coat.  It does last long on my fingers considering I do laundry and housework. I think this is really the nail polish to get considering that one do not need to apply base coat to get the ed beautiful results.

I did the flowers  by using pin as I do not have any brushes to paint the nail polish.  Forgive me if it is not very beautiful.

Since it is Chinese new year, I bought this bright red shoes too =)

REVIEW ON DR.JART V7 TURNOVER BOOSTER

If you have heard about this famous beauty Korea show, I am sure that you would know about the Dr. Jart ceramidin cream that is a favourite even among the Korean celebrities for the light and moisturizing property and it can be mix with BB cream to create a base for a long lasting makeup.

Today, I am going to introduce another product from Dr. Jart which is the Dr.Jart V7 turnover booster. Do visit the link for more information on what is a booster. I wrote about them a while ago.

photos are from Dr.Jart official site

Key ingredients
Vita 3 Complex – Helps to reduce the appearance of pigmentation caused by acne, sun damage and delivers high levels of anti-oxidants
Vitamin B3 Niacinamide - Improves skins resilience, improves cell renewal
Vitamin B5 Panthenol - Aids wrinkle prevention
Vitamin C Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate – Helps to protects the skin from UV damage, helps maintain skin resilience with anti-oxidizing agents
Vitamin E Tocopheryl Acetate - Anti-oxidant agents help prevent skin ageing and improves elasticity of dry skin

Here is the box.  Make sure to keep the bottle inside this box.

The bottle is made of glass and it is quite heavy.  So make sure not to drop it.

Some of the wording are in Korean since this is a Korean products =) .

sorry for the ingredients that is not so clear

Water, Butylene Glycol, Dipropylene Glycol, Glycerin, Diethoxyethyl Succinate, Biosaccharide Gum-1, Betaine, Silica, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, PEG-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, PPG-26-Buteth-26, Squalane, Arginine, Niacinamide, Carbomer, Panthenol, Caffeine, Rosmarinus Officinalis (Rosemary) Leaf Oil, Ubiquinone, Disodium EDTA, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Peel Oil, Salix Nigra (Willow) Bark Extract, Euglena Gracilis Extract, Tocopheryl Acetate, Glyceryl Arachidonate, Glycery

The booster is clear white with gold particles.

What is so special about this booster is that it contains 7types of vitamins to feed the skin according to the vitamin pyramid. The bottle is also in a dark colour and has a dropper to it. I find that I really like this kind of dropper as it is so easy to use and to avoid contamination to the product. I keep the bottle inside the box though in case the light will destroy the product.

I use the booster few drops in the morning and more at night. It absorbs into my skin very fast and hydrates my skin without any heavy feeling. My skin was peelings from the weeks of neglect, along with the breakouts and usage of acne prone products so this is really helpful with the hydration without being too heavy. I do not use any moisturizer during that time since my pores get clogged easily but surprisingly I do not get any skin peeling when I am using this.

This is really an amazing product for hydration although it is just a booster. I use serum, beauty oil or sleeping mask after the product at night. I find that all the skincare product works seems to work better and faster when I am using this booster.  Everything just get 'absorb' into my skin when normally all those product seems to just stay on top of my skin.  This is sure a keeper.

I will buy this again because it really helps my skin with hydration without clogging my pores.


Thanks Corinne for introducing this product to me. I love this very very much =)

P/S: If you are getting Dr.Jart V7 toner, you would have to use the toner after the Dr.Jart turnover booster.  I am not sure why but I think it is because the V7 toner is not a clarifying toner and it is a hydrating toner that contain active ingredients for the skin.  So, the sequence would be cleaner> booster > toner.


Products retails Rm145 for 50ml at Sasa. Made in Korea.

REVIEW ON ZAMIAN GOLD CACAO MASK & ZAMIAN SOAPS

Thanks to Hermo.com.my and The Butterfly Project collaboration for 'Make A Wish' Chapter to grant wishes of lucky butterflies and I am one of the lucky ones =)  .  Of course I was so shocked and happy when the post came and honked at my house.  This is an amazingX10 products that I have always wanted to try and  Hermo.com.my  just made my wish come true. They send me the soap too when I only ask for a tube of the mask =) .  I don't want to be greedy but I accept this nice gesture too=) .  So happy to get this package!  Seriously this came just when I seriously need this. I had been sleeping everyday at 2am for a month and also stayed alert all the time incase the flood hit the place I am staying again.  Due to this, my skin was so bad that I have to 'hide'.

sorry, no idea what is the meaning of the Korean behind the soap.
Cacao soap exfoliate my skin very well and get rid of all the excess oil.

Camelia soap is transparents and smell so good.I will just wet it and use it to wash off the cacao mask. It lathered up easily too.

see?lathered up easily.

this is packaging

Everything is in Korean except the name.

Zamian Gold Cacao Mask 150g, RM69.90. It is the Top Selling in Korea 2007-2008 Korea Award. Reduce Pimple,blackhead,whitening,oil control. The before and after result is so amazing that I 'WISH' to have this products.

Contain 99.9 gold powder,aloe extract, cacao powder, collagen which produce hydrating and whitening effect.Act as deep cleansing which can reduce pimple/acne, blackheads and tighten pore , eliminate appearance of line and wrinkles.

What are the benefits of Korea Gold Cacao Mask ?

4) Brighten dull looking skin (whitening)
5) Heal acne skin
6) Controls excessive oil formation

Here is the direct link to the product.

Usage instruction:

1. If your skin is combination like mine then use the cacao mask to clean first before applying the cacao mask on dry cleaned skin.
2. Then, wait for the mask to dry up for about 15-20minutes. 

3. The wash off with the camellia soap. I find it okay to use it every day since my skin was so bad during that time. It just made my skin looks better =) .

I am not sure if you can see  the tiny gold particles.  The twinkling tiny dots are the gold particles.

can you see the differences?  This is only after one application?  Amazing and worth to look silly for 15minutes.

Looked at how bad was my skin =(. Volcanoes of cystic acnes and pimples erupting again. My pores was so big and my face was so red! Some parts of skin was even peeling and that hurts. This mask seriously works to reduce the acne and get rid of the dry parts. Of course the acne doesn’t disappear in one day but they seriously got reduced and dried up the next day. =) My redness were also gone and I find it work to clean up all my clogged pores. The pores were much smaller and I love this so much now. My face also felt smoother on the first application. I know this mask came out somewhere in 2007/ 2008 but if it works why do we need to chase the trend right?

The mask smelled of cacao and it was of course delicious.  Application was so smooth and easy.  My face felt so smooth after using the mask.  The face area that was peeling stung a bit because my skin was so sensitive.  I can't even use any toner at all or it would feel as if thousands of needles are poking my face.  When my skin was back to normal, there is no stinging feeling at all.  Beware with a lot pirated good. Real Zamaian mask doesn't leave any colour stain on the skin at all.
I would definitely get this and recommend this for trouble skin/acne skin.

REVIEW ON EGYPTIAN MAGIC ALL PURPOSE SKIN CREAM

About Egyptian Magic

Egyptian Magic All-Purpose Skin Cream "The People's Choice" is new to your market. It is a phenomenal healing balm with legendary powers due to its unique mixture of all natural ingredients derived only from living plants and organisms. Egyptian Magic All-Purpose Skin Cream "The People's Choice" has been on the market since August 1991 with a solid track record, a loyal word of mouth following, and twice the healing power for half the price of conventional skin creams.

This is a products that everyone rave about and it is a favourite among so many celebrities.  I personally will approach it will a skeptical eyes as I don't really believe if there is something that works for everything.  Well, the word MAGIC does gets my attention.

The texture is just like balm and it will turn into oil if rub a few times.  It smell of olive oil and of petroleum jelly.  It is bearable but I don't think everyone will find the smell pleasing.  I find it really moisturising to my lips and it cure my chapped skin.  My lips always cracked as usual but applying this prevent it and my lips is really moisturise throughout the day.  Since it is only 3ml, I am not sure how it will fair for my acne prone skin.  I get about 2 application out of 3ml and I realise that it doesn't break me out but I think my pimples is still there.  I guess it is because I have really stubborn pimples and it only works with certain medication meant for cystic acne.

It works as a good makeup primer for dry skin. The skin would be really moisturise and not dry when applied makeup.  I heard that it works for rashes and also for sunburnt skin =).  I guess because there is high content of olive oil in it =).

Products retails RM5 at 3ml , RM75 at 59ml  and Rm125 at 128ml at Natta Cosme
