March 2016 Favorites!

This month is super super exciting for me since it's my birthday month! I would like to say that I am so blessed to have Robby and all of my friends in my life. This year's birthday has to be one of the best one I've ever had. There will be more personal favorites than beauty related but I hope you'll still enjoy reading this blog post!

Birthday presents

I am so lucky to be able to receive gifts for my birthday. Bella was so sweet she drove all the way to my place so that she can deliver me these flowers exactly on my birthday 12AM in the morning! Flowers is one of the things I absolutely love and I like any kind of flowers, they are just so beautiful. When it comes to Robbys present, his existence itself is a present to me. I've been wanting a necklace that'll lasts even if I shower with it and all that. That's his preent and a card that I can not share since it's pretty private. I absolutely love this necklace. It's a heart shape and there are two smaller hearts in it. How cute...

Missha Perfect Cover bb cream SPF 42 

I was looking for more of a high end bb cream to try on that's cruelty free and stumbled upon this one. I wrote a full review of this bb cream so I don't think I can say much more here but overall this is one of the best bb cream I've tried!

Zootopia

If you haven't watch this movie, you have to! I went and watch this movie all by myself in the cinema and totally enjoyed it. It's super cute and funny. I love how the moral of the story of this movie is to basically not to give up on your dreams regardless of what people say. It is so important for young children and everyone to believe in this. I don't think its available in the cinema anymore but just watch it somehow.

"the city of Zootopia is a mammal metropolis where various animals live and thrive. When Judy Hopps (Ginnifer Goodwin) becomes the first rabbit to join the police force, she quickly learns how tough it is to enforce the law."

March 2016 dissapointments

I'm afraid that's all I have for this month's favorites. I purchased a lot of items that I thought Id love but turns out they are all disappointing. I thought I'd love the book Me before you and cry over and over again. It is a good book but it's not great? I can't wait for the movie though. I'm sorry if this blog post is short!

Review - Missha Perfect cover BB cream SPF 42

Hello! I've finally have a time off from all of the assignments and I can finally review this bb cream. I've been wanting to talk about it since the day I tried it for the first time. Missha is a cruelty free korean makeup brand. As you can see here in their website

So let's get on the product shall we?

I was looking for a new bb cream to try that is cruelty free. I've been wanting to try a korean bb cream since I know that it's quiet popular and heard so many good things about them. I've purchased the bb cream in the shade #23. I think that it matches me ' Okay ' although it has a grey under tone underneath. You get to choose from 5 different shades although since I bought it through Hermo.my There were only 2 shades available from me to choose from.

I've been using this bb cream as a base of my makeup since the start of this month. Although the bb cream from tarte is still number one this is for sure better than the one from Silky Girl that I've been using. My skin is an oily combination and using this works just fine! I would say that it's a light coverage but it's perfect for daily use. The consistency is not too thick or too thin either. What I love about this bb cream is that it has a pump! Although if you don't fancy a floral smell or a baby powder smell this is not the bb cream for you. The smell is actually pretty strong...

Price: 98RM at the Missha Outlet
          52RM at Hermo.my

February 2016 Favorites!

Hello!

Well January was rough and February was much better...

This month's favorites is more of a skin care one and other miscellaneous items. I did not purchase any new makeup item I believe hehehe kind of sad about it but that's okay. I don't have much to show too but I hope that this blog post is still enjoyable to read.

Let's get to the favorites!

Clinique dramatically different moisturizing gel 

I have been using this moisturizer every night for at least one month now. I freakin love it! I'd say that this is my favorite moisturizer out of all that I've tried. It glides on your skin so smoothly like butter but dries out to a matte finish. If your skin type is oily combination to oily you should give this one a go! This came with my 3 step kit that I purchased that cost 103RM. The full price of this product is ...

RM 156

Clinique liquid facial soap - Oily skin formula

I have been getting compliments on my skin. This might be the holy grail product that's been helping me! Although I'm breaking out at the moment due to that time of the month. This cleanser really cleanse my skin thoroughly. I use it during my showers, it always leaves skin feeling smooth and refreshed. 

RM 146

Johnsons baby bedtime oil 

Pretty sure you're kind of confused of why I have a baby oil in my favorites post? No, I don't have a baby. This is what I use to moisturize my whole body except my face.It's so affordable. I would use the baby oil every time after my shower before I sleep and wake up with a silky smooth skin. I have read somewhere that baby oil prevents anti aging too! I forgot the exact price but I'm pretty sure for the small bottle it's under RM10

2016 Planner

Say it with me everyone! HOW CUTE !
I've only been using this planner for a week actually. Typo was on sale and when I saw it I just had to have it! I am one of those people who uses daily planner. I collect stickers too. It helps me get things done through the day, week and months. 

RM 15 ( from 89)

Anime - Boku dake ga Inai Machi

This anime is an ongoing series. " The story follows Satoru Fujinuma, a man who possesses an ability that sends him back in time moments before a life-threatening incident, allowing him to prevent it from happening" . This is a really good anime you guys! just go and watch it. I'm not gonna say much about it since I don't want to give any spoilers. Thank you for the recommendation babe ( Robby )!

Well that's all of my favorites of this month!

Review - Clinique 3 step intro kit Skin type 3 ( Combination oily )

Hello!

I've been using the Biore face wash , Vitamin E toner from Body shop and the Face shop aloe vera gel as my skin care for a while now and I feel like it stopped working for me? So I decided to research and look at the different high end skin care brand. I have decided to purchase the Clinique 3 step intro kit Skin type 3 ( Combination oily ).  I purchased the kit at the end of January and started using it straight away. I have a combination more oily skin so this kit was appealing.

Inside the kit you get the Liquid facial soap oily skin formula, clarifying lotion and the dramatically different moisturizing gel.

Liquid facial soap oily skin formula

I really like this cleanser! The cleanser is water soluble and it has no odor which is super surprising to me. It really cleanse my skin thoroughly. I use a bb cream on a daily basis and it removes it just fine also the eyebrow product that I use. Although it does not remove my water proof mascara which is understandable. It is very gentle on the skin. It did not break me out at all.

Clarifying lotion

At first I was confused of how to use this product since I have never use an exfoliator before. Every single time I use this exfoliator I would always see the dirt on my cotton that I would not see by using a toner. It really lifts up all the dirt on my face. The only problem I have with this product is the smell, It's like a rubbing alcohol? It's slightly too strong for me.


Dramatically different moisturizing gel

Hands down my favorite moisturizer out of all of the moisturizer that I have tried. It's so silky smooth when you apply it and dries out matte. It's very light and hydrates my skin perfectly. I have notice that after using this moisturizer for 2 weeks my face is softer. Out of all the 3 products in the kit this is the one I would repurchase.


Price: 106RM

I hope that this review is helpful. If you're looking for a new skin care that you want to try you should really check Clinique!

January 2016 Favorites!

Hello!
Happy new year!

How's the first month of the year been for you? For 2016 I'm planning to write at least two blog post every month. I hope this works out! As you may know by the title, this blog post is dedicated to my January Favorites. Okay, let's go through this month's favorites...


1. Batiste dry shampoo

I am sure that most of you have heard this dry shampoo. I decided to try it out when I was transferring from Doha to Kuala Lumpur through Dubai. This costs 31 Dirham. This has help me so much! I do not wash my hair every single day I will either do it every 2 days or 3 days. This dry shampoo really soaks in the oil on your head and make your hair smell as if you just washed it that day! If you can get your hands on it, do it. Try it!

2. Menow Kissproof Lipstick

The way I feel about this brand is very on and off. Sometimes I absolutely love them sometimes I don't. Why? until today I'm still not sure of where they came from and whether they are cruelty free or not. But I love these lipsticks! I was addicted to them since one of my close friends gave it to me. I have 3 of them in total at the moment. If you live in Malaysia you would know how cheap these are! I bought them for 5RM each! I believe they have 19 colors for you to choose from. I bought mine from an Instagram online shop called ' Fadadshop' . This lipstick lasts for a long time! although it can be drying as long as you put a lip balm an hour before putting it on you'll be fine. 

3. ST Ives Fresh skin apricot scrub

Another product that is in the hype! although I feel like I was late to join. The St Ives Apricot scrub! I have used a scrub previously from the body shop before but this one is so much better than the one I had. Price wise it is super affordable. I bought them at guardian for 17RM. They have another type specifically for blemish control. I would use this scrub one or twice a weeek. Every single time after I have use this scrub it gets so soft and shiny! You can use this scrub to exofliate other parts of your body too. 

4.  Victoria Secret Bombshell body mist

I have been loving this body mist since I was in high school. It's super sexy but not overwhelming at all. I would say that it is a mix of sweet but also musky at the same time? This is the only body mist that lasts on my body. I am not sure how much this costs but I'm sure that it is under 100RM for this small bottle.

5. Matte LA girl flat finish pigment gloss in the color Fleur

I'm not one who can rock an orange under tone lipstick easily. But this works on me and I feel like it will too with most skin tones. I love how different the color is than most of my lipsticks. One of my friends have recommended this to me and yes La Girl is cruelty free! How amazing is that. If you're interested in a liquid lipstick do check them out!

So these are my favorites! I hope the blog post was not too short...

Miscellaneous - What's in my bag?

Hello!
I love watching what's in my bag video! I'm just so nosy. I hope this post is interesting for you cause I'd love to know what's in your bag. Please don't see this blog post as a way for me to brag, that's not my intention at all. I don't switch out my bags everyday according to the outfit that I'm wearing that's why most of my bags is neutral colours. I'd say that I switch my bag after 1 month or so?

I have been wanting this bag for ages and finally I was able to save up for it and bought it on the way back to Malaysia from Qatar. Yes, I get over excited over a bag! It's the Longchamp Le Pliage Neo in black. I have it in the size small. I use this bag both for hangouts and for college. I can fit all of this stuff! It is so light and easy to clean.

Price varies depending on where you buy them from but on their website it is $225
http://us.longchamp.com/handbags/le-pliage-neo/handbag-1512578

Umbrella :  Malaysia's weather is unpredictable. It can rain everyday for a few days or sunny. It's always good to have an umbrella in my bag. There's been so many times that I was drenched from the rain coming to class or coming home.

Pencil case ( Cath Kidston) : First of all it is so cute and this pencil case comes with a mirror. I used to just throw in all of my stationary in my bag and it would be hard for me to look for a pen in class. Having a pencil case is so necessary and keep things organised.

Wallet ( Michael Kors) :  I'am a big fan of Michael Kors. This is my first time using a large wallet. I tend to buy a small wallet instead because I love using my mini bags and a wallet like this wouldn't be able to fit in them. Although I find that having a bigger wallet is better . I can have more cards in it and have it organised better. I can also put my phone inside.

Cat , key holder : You might be thinking what is that? well it's a key holder inside a cat plushy that I bought from Mori, Sunway Pyramid. This makes it easy for me to find my keys inside my bag and it is super adorable. This is my second plushy key holder...

Mini makeup bag (Givenchy) : This is a great size to put inside any of my bag. I've had this for years now. I just put a few makeup bits in it such as lip tint, lip balm and oil bloting paper? and more other random things.

Notebook: I need a note book, one each for my subjects.

Earphones ( Razer ) : Absolutely love this ear phones. It blocks out random sounds so well.  I don't love the colour but it is what it is.

Hope this was an interesting post to read! What are your bag necessities that you can't leave the house without? Mine is my wallet!

2015 Beauty Favorite + Ipad !

Crazy how it's the end of 2015 already! I can not believe that the year is over. There are so many products that I'd love to talk about in this blog post but I decided to narrow it down to 5 items. These 5 items are items that I can not go a day without this year. I discovered them in 2015 and I'm sure that I'll love them in 2016. 2017 maybe even 2025?

I'm planning to do a monthly favorites every month in 2016! I've always love watching monthly favorites and reading other people's blog post about it. I'll try my best to keep up with the monthly favorites.


1. Apple ipad Mini 3 in Gold

This gadget is such a treat to have. I'm so glad that I bought it! I broke my laptop early 2015 and it sucks. I was not able to do my assignments using my own laptop, I had to borrow my boyfriend's laptop often. I decided to purchase the Ipad mini because I couldn't fix my laptop and had to wait to buy a new one. I purchased the Ipad mini 3 (16GB). I use this ipad for everything. I use it to write in my assignment, watch movies , youtube videos and much more. it's so convenient because of the size and how light it is, it's easy to bring it anywhere.

Price : 1300RM

2. Burts Bees lip balm

I have tried different brand of lip balms and so far Burts bees lip balm is the best! Hands down. It's the first lip balm that I actually finished like the tub was empty? It's super moisturizing and lasts long. It feels really good its not greasy. They have so many different kind of flavor. I've personally tried the Vanilla Bean and Acai Berry. I'd use it as a part of my skin care routine, before putting on any lipsticks, lip tints etc. Burts Bees is also cruelty free! This was recommended to me by one of my best friends. Thank you so much P!

Price: 25RM

3. Innisfree Ece eyebrow pencil

This eyebrow pencil is a life saver ! I used to use the darkest brown shade from my Naked Basic palette to do my eyebrow.  Vanessa from oh-my-vans.blogspot.my recommended this eye brow pencil. It is so easy for me to fill in my eyebrow using this pencil. It looks super natural and lasts long too. As you may know Malaysia is pretty humid and I sweat a lot. Every single time that I use this eyebrow pencil it doesn't smudge despite the humidity. Lets talk about the price, it is so affordable. 15RM! I'm using it in number 04.

4. Nature republic Soothing and Moisture aloe vera 92% soothing gel

I'm sure I've raved about this product in my blog. I decided to try this since I had run out of my Moisturizer and heard a lot of great reviews about it. I was hooked ever since and so does my boyfriend. It does have a scent to it but I don't mind. I love how light it is and it's not sticky on my skin. It dries up super quick too. It is so affordable and you get so much in the tub. This products is very versatile too. I use it to moisturize my arms and use it as an under eye mask. Try it out!

5. Vitamin E Hydrating Toner from The Body Shop

Girl...
If you haven't try this toner you should. If you're considering of trying out a toner, try this. This toner is a major help in calming down my acne and discoloration. It's great to remove your make up residue. I usually use this in the morning after washing my face. It's so hydrating. The scent reminds me of a baby powder? Another plus is that Body Shop is a cruelty free brand!

Price: 55RM



So here are the products I truly recommend for you to try!
