Body Lotion + Mini Victoria's Secret Haul

For ladies out there, body lotion is like a life saver because it smoothens out our skin after shaving or scrubbing. I have came across a few famous brands from drugstore/high-street to high end brands, from Western to Asian brands.

I would start off with drugstore because ain't no body has that much of money for the big body. :P
Left : Vaseline                                         Middle : Nivea                                         Right : Palmer's
Left : Vaseline                                       Middle : Nivea                                       Right : Palmer's


On the left is from Vaseline - perfect 10. It has 10 in 1 benefits to your screen. It is considered as a think consistency body lotion (as you can see in the picture above), it won't be quite suitable on summer or in some hot countries.

Packaging (350ml)
The biggest size you can get in any drugstores. It comes with a pump which has no input locks so it's not suitable to bring on vacation. Color of the body lotion is pink which is adorable.
Price
It's around RM 18.88 (US $5.17), I bought it when it has year-end sale so it's a lot cheaper than usual.
Performance
Instant moisturized, feeling sticky in a couple of hours (in humid hot countries). The product is not as spreadable compares to the other two products shown. It has great scent to it. It protects your skin from the hot sun, could be realized after a walk in sunny days and back home, my skin won't feel hot and pain.
Pros
Instant moisturize, absorbs quickly, stay on for hours, contains UV protection, protects from sunburn.
Cons
The tube does not have a in-build lock, feel sticky when days get more humid and hot.
Repurchasing
Maybe when the weather gets cold or dry.

Overall Score :  7.55 / 10.0
____________________________________________________________________________

In the middle is Nivea - Extra Whitening Skin Therapy body milk. As it says, it's a body milk, the consistency is pretty watery, a little goes a long way.

Packaging (350ml)
The biggest size you can get in any drugstores. It has a build in lock where you push down the pump and turn to the left. It's quite handy when you can bring along to your vacation.
Price
It's around RM 18.88 (US $5.17), same as the Vaseline one but usually it comes with a small gift (e.g. : 30 ml body serum or 30 ml body lotion)
Performance
Instant moisturized, feeling less stick in humid weather because it's a light weight body lotion. It has typically floral Nivea scent to it. It promises to have a fairer skin tone because of the Vitamin C in it. It does reduce the black patches from getting darker on my skin but it does not "reduce" as it claims to be. The color of the lotion is milky white.
Pros
Instant moisturize, stay on for hours, contains UV protection, prevent skin from darkening.
Cons
Skin absorbs quickly, does not leave the healthy glow on skin.
Repurchasing
Yes. (Definitely)

Overall Score :  8.80 / 10.0


This Nivea serum - UV Skin Whitening came across with the body milk above. It's more watery than the body milk, a good pea size amount can be applied to both hands.

Performance
"Skin gets more radiant after you've used it for 14 days or more."
This caught my eyes and I've started using right after I got that. Although it's a small tube but it could be used for 1.5 months straight (1 application/day). As I'm considered to have fairer skin tone compare to most Asians, I'll get dark patches on my skin, especially hands when I'm in contact with sun. It literally reduces the visibility of the patches and the pore size.
It does not have a scent to it which is a good thing.
Repurchasing
Repurchased once it ran out.

Overall Score : 9.50 / 10.0
____________________________________________________________________________

On the right is Palmer's - Cocoa Butter Formula. This lotion contains a bunch of nutrients as usual to Palmer's products.

Packaging (250ml)
It is a closed container with a push click on top.
Price
It's around RM 18.88 (US $5.17), but I got a on a clearance sale at RM 10.00 (US $2.72).
Performance
It's beneficial for your skin, absorbs instantly, doesn't have UV protection, meant to heal your skin because of the Vitamin E and Shea Butter. After one application I've left it aside because of the stinky smell of it.
I couldn't give much information as I only applied once.
Pros
Beneficial for skin, instant absorbs.
Cons
Bad scent to it.
Repurchasing
No.

Overall Score : 6.0 / 10.0
____________________________________________________________________________

Before I came across those products, I've tried some higher end like the Laura Mercier, given by friends on my birthday years ago, that is great but it's too expensive to be repurchased because I've gone through it like no body business.

Until...I came across this product in Victoria's Secret. I've been eye-ing on this item for quite some time and Victoria Secret's was having the year end clearance at the moment.

 
It was on 40 % when I've bought the first one, it is the Victoria's Secret Sweet Almond Oil Body Lotion.

Packaging (250ml)
There's only one size, it has a pump and a plastic lock is given to secure the bottle from spilling.
Price
It's around RM 79.90 (US $21.71), I got the first one on 40%, which is RM 47.95 (US $13.03), it's already a good bargain. I went back for second purchase because I'm obsessed with it after I've tried it out at home. It was the end of the sale and it has 60% off so I grabbed the other 3 bottles for RM 31.95 (US $8.68) which is absolutely crazy.
Performance
Instant moisturized, light weight, absorbs instantly, fills up all the pores after shower, skin glows like Victoria Secret's model. It's white and slightly pink to it. A little goes a long way as it turns into oil after rubbing on your skin. The smell is absolutely amazing. It's suitable for night application and the scent is relaxing.
It literally stays on my skin until the next shower.
Pros
Instant moisturize, stay on until next shower, instant absorbs, glowing skin, nicest smell among the products I've reviewed.
Cons
Does not contains UV protection.
Repurchasing
Yes. (Definitely)
____________________________________________________________________________

Besides I have purchased a makeup/pouch for 50% discount.


I love the special statement where there's a combination of orange, gold and white.


Beside the chain of V and S is super adorable and classy as well.

Hope you guys like this new review, Stay Strong and Be Happy Always. <3

Super Melodicious Musical Instruments | Macau

Recently I've been to Macau, visited "A - Ma Temple" 媽祖閣. Macau is named after this temple.  


 I came across these two guys who were playing their tradition instruments. 
They might not be the fanciest instrument I've came across but they had definitely played  the most memorable and unforgettable melodies.
 I was and still wondering what is the names of these instruments.  

This is the first instrument.


The second instrument. 


Here is a video of them playing those instruments. Sorry for uploading low quality because HD takes too long to upload on Youtube.


Good Luck and Hope you Enjoy it.

Garcina Cambogia | Fitness Monday

Hey gorgeous, today is fitness Monday, without rambling, let's get to the point cause I know you guys are hyped over this product. 

I believe you had already known a lot of tweets or advertisement already rave about garcina cambogia which is a plant extract that aids in weight loss, they've used a lot of famous singers as their advertising model like Christina Aguilera etc.  

I know people don't usually believe advertisement, so do I, but I really interested in this product because it's a 100% natural weight loss formula
Girls, you know yourself, get slim without any sweating is like our most impossible dream ever. Hence, I do give this a try by doing research and headed to a well-known brand - GNC.

Here is where you can check them out and look through their website for more products.


This is an American drug selling store which is quite famous in Asia because it has a lot of branches basically in each and every shopping malls.

I did quite some researches by reading comments and explanations from different doctors as well as health gurus. Then, I think it's worth for a try and I found out that GNC is selling this natural remedy which is not quite cheap I would say. It kind of gives me the trustworthy feeling because I don't believe in cheap drugs when it comes to health.


 I would make my review in few categories, as it makes them easier to read.

Packaging 
 It's like a normal drug like a huge tablet which is 2 centimeters in length, 1 capsule is 500mg of Garcina Cambogia. The extract is stored in a transparent casing tube where you can still see the products which is cream-yellowish colored. If you break it up and you can see the Garcina Cambogia extract in a powder form. It has 90 capsules per bottle.

Price 
As I've mentioned earlier, this isn't quite cheap. When I went for this, it was out of stock in every shopping malls near me and I had to leave my number there for booking and eventually it came around 2-3weeks later. As soon as they shelfed this and this went off like crazy. I bought the last 2 bottles that were left there cause they were having sale at 30% on the 2nd product.

For a bottle is MYR 79.90 (USD $24.90) and what I've paid it's only MYR 135.85 (USD $ 41.65). If you want further information or you've decided to give it a go, you can check it out HERE.

Performance
 You'll need to take it in 1 hour before having breakfast hence it'll absorb into our body throughout the day as it only can be taken in once a day(advisible).From what I've read, normal adult can take in 1500mg (3 capsules) per day. It contains high HCA (Hydroxycitric Acid) which helps in digestion. It aids in weight loss and acts as an appetite suppressant and fat metabolism as they claimed. 

For a month user like me, it doesn't react like what they've claimed or raved about. It does help me detox, anti-constipation and feel more awake as well as healthier. It does help my body feels lighter even if I've taken in carbs like rice, breads and biscuits. I do not know whether it's me started working out as well as taking in these or it's the effect of garcina, my weight has gone down by 4-5 kilograms in a month.

Pros 
Body feels lighter (weight has decreased of course), feels healthier, anti-constipation and appetite suppressant as I don't take in sides or snacks between meals. A bonus for this, it does not have side effects after taking in for a month and my body does not back to the beginning stage as my body weight is maintained while I'm not taking that. 

Cons 
 Once the tube casing has broken, it has a super strong taste, I guess it's just the taste of garcina extract. The tablet is too big to swallow. 

Will I repurchase?
I'm not sure whether there's any further aids to my body if my body get used to this so I'm taking a month break and take in another bottle for a month later to see the further effects so stay tuned. =D

Overall Score : 9.0/10.0 

 A short review of this product since Twitter's advertiser is raving about this product these days, I hope you'll like it.
Good Luck and Run Extra Miles

Beauty Haul | Elianto

Hey all the gorgeous out there, TGIF~~~
It's Friday night, where is the party babe? It's Friday which means it's a beauty day where after reading this you could get to the products right away on the weekends.


As you might have seen on the title, the products I'd be reviewing today is from Elianto (ELIANTO).

Let's get a little details about the company. First of all I just noticed this brand few months ago since January where I saw their "sale" in a shopping mall. FYI, they literally have sale all year long but of course the sale are different products.

I wouldn't say it's a Malaysia brand because most of their products are imported from other countries like Switzerland, Germany, Italy and Korea. The products I have always preferred in this company is from Italy. 

Elianto's products range are skin care, cosmetics, body care, hair care, nail care, beauty accessories and fragrance with the MOST reasonable price you could ever get from drugstore/high street to high end products especially when they have huge sale.
 ________________________________________________________________________

How I came across this brand? 

One day I was searching for a hand cream/lotion from Asian beauty shops (Etude House, Holika Holika, Nature Republic etc) to Western beauty shops (Sephora, The Body Shop) or drugstores (Watsons, Guardian).
 I, personally, would like to try out the products before I purchase them especially for skin care or body lotion that could last for a long time.
 I've seen a lot of people raved about The Body Shop's hand cream, when I went to try it on and leave it for 5 minutes when I walked around the shop to see some other products, it does not absorb as quickly as what the beauty gurus raved.

This shop in the shopping mall has caught my eyes with the greatest deal. First, of course I went for the hand cream. It absorbs instantly and after 5 minutes, it leaves no greasiness and the results are shown instantly which makes this my GO-TO hand cream now.


They come in 4 different scents : Cherry, Jasmine, Melon and Sakura.
I've owned 3 of the scents other than cherry because it is always out of stock. After using them, I found out that the Sakura hand cream and the best and unique scent, of course the packaging is Pink which is a bonus for this.

You can find the hand creams HERE. I believe they deliver internationally. What is better than discounts? They arer having 50% sale on these products now.

It is made in Korea, as you know Koreans are all about the benefits for skin in a single tube, this is enriched with Vitamin E, olive oil, shea butter etc, ingredients that are beneficial for your skin.

I've gone through the initial 3 tubes which is the Jasmine, Melon and Sakura. I've bought three of them for RM18 (US $5.53) when it's on sale. One tube can last for 2-3months depend on your usage. Then, I bought 2 other tubes as shown in the photo for RM 21 (US $6.45). It is relatively cheap as you compare to the quality for what you paid for.

 Packaging (30ml)
Easy to use like toothpaste, perfectly sealed as the cream won't spill out of the tube.
Price
For the amount you get, divide to 2-3months, it's only $1.60/month which is amazing.
Performance
Excellence, instant results shown.
Pros
Instant moisturize, instant results shown, cheap, lots and lots of benefits in it. (Check the link provided above)
Cons
The tube cannot be exposed to sunlight, the creams will melt because of the butter/oil in the ingredients.
Repurchasing
A definite YES.

Overall Score :  9.90 / 10.0
 ________________________________________________________________________

What else I've discovered? 

  I've gone back to the shop and I was interested to the translucent powder which comes in a mirrored case as shown in the photograph.



It is a natural and mineral translucent powder which is good for your skin. It can not be seen on my NC20-25 skin. I have sensitive and combination skin. You can check them out at HERE.

I have used this for 2-3months and it has not broke me up. This is from Italy, which I've said earlier, the preferred country's products. One compact will last you for a life time I guess, for the daily usage of 2-3months, I've only used not even 0.5mm dent. 

It also has 50% discount when I bought this which is MYR 21.50 (USD $6.60). It definitely has no coverage but it is good in absorbing oil. It will not leave a cakey appearance on my face which is a good thing. 

Packaging (10g)
Normal compact packaging comes with a velvet soft sponge, easy to bring along.
Price
You get what you pay.
Performance
 Works like a normal compact. 
Pros
Oil absorbing, Leaves no cakey, Cheap, Sticks on skin very well.
Cons
If you have pores and without using any pore filling base, this will fall into the pores. 
Repurchasing
Maybe, because I don't think I can finish this.

Overall Score :  7.5 / 10.0

 Beauty Accessories

Makeup brushes are widely promoted these days, they good ones which mostly high-end and they are very expensive obviously. I've came across their brushes which make my makeup better these days.


 They are very soft and makeup are applied evenly using them.

(Naming from left to right)
1 : Kabuki Brush (LINK) MYR 29.00 (USD $8.90)
2 : Blusher Brush/Contour Brush (LINK) MYR 25.00 (USD $7.70)
3 : Eyeshadow Blending Brush (LINK) MYR 15.00 (USD $4.61)
 4 : Foundation Brush (LINK) MYR 25.00 (USD $7.70)

 Currently, I've used them for quite some time, I am not sure when I started using this but I'm sure I've used them for months.

For 1, 2 and 4 brushes, I think they're absolutely amazing but for brush 3 I think it wouldn't be a good blending brush because the brush hair is falling off each time I cleaned them.

Packaging
Normal brush size and the brush are in dark brown color. The holder is smooth black colored. 
Price
You get what you pay.
Performance
 Brushes 1, 2 and 4 work amazing. But not for brush 3.
Pros
They are easy to use, the brushes hold on to the holder very well except brush 3.
Cons
The dirtiness of the brush is hard to determined because the tip are in dark brown.
Repurchasing
No, because I would like to try out new brushes.

Overall Score :  7.5 / 10.0

Online Purchase Launch

Recently, they have launched online purchasing and they give you a voucher once you've signed up. I've received MYR 15 off from my purchase as well as free delivery.


 This package arrived earlier than it's stated in the T&C. I've made my payment on Wednesday evening and I received this on Friday morning but in T&C they say I'll be receiving within 3-7days which I'll give a big thumbs up for their service.

Besides, the products are neatly wrapped with plastic bubbles where you can have the satisfaction of popping them, I would give this point a second thumbs up.

Thirdly, as you may have seen it in the photo above, they always have a surprise in the box. I also get another MYR 20 off from my next purchase using the code given on the paper, lots and lots of thumbs up for this point.


 The makeup wipes which they said is the MOST-pickup beauty product in their shops are the surprise they mentioned in the letter that sent to me with this package.

It makes my skin squiky clean after using and it's moisturizing as well because one of the major ingredient is Aloe Vera which is massively used these days because it is extremely good for our skin.

Other than that, the products I've bought is shown in the photos below.


Lip liners (Red and Pink) and lip gloss (Peachy Shea Butter)

These are the swatches of the lip products.


From top to bottom :
1. Pink lip liner
2. Red lip liner
3. Shea Butter lip gloss

FYI, these swatches I just applied one time to show you guys the pigmentation. Both of the lip liners are packaged like color pencils and the pigmentation is better than color pencils. =D

I think you can just use them when you lack of that color pencil. The application is very smooth and it's very blendable.

Here is a photograph of my lips with the peachy lip gloss.


I apologized for my spoty skin it is post blemish scars because humans aren't perfect creatures, I appreciate my spotiness. =P

 I would say this is nude for pinkish brown lips.It leaves no sticky on your lips and it doesn't have the sticky, saliva like liquid when you opened your mouth.

Both of the products are from Italy as well.

Packaging
Absolutely adorable, lip liner literally looks like color pencil. The lip gloss is 
like princessy packaging which is very cute in my opinion.
Price
I've only paid USD $7.70 for all of these including the lip balm I'm going to show you guys later. 
Performance
The lip liners are very pigmented like a real color pencil. Lip gloss does not feel sticky 
and it looks amazing when I put it on as shown in the picture above.
Pros
They are easy to use, very pigmented, relatively cheap and very smooth 
when you put them on.
Cons
There isn't a lot of color to choose from these two series of products.
Repurchasing
Yes when the sale/deal is on again.

Overall Score :  8.5 / 10.0 

Extreme moisturizing lip balm in Olive.


This comes in 3 tastes I should say : shea butter, olive and chocolate. I don't like to eat olives but the taste of this lip balm is amazing.

I usually apply this before my moisturizer and right after I've finished applying my face moisturizer, it is mostly absorbed into my lips and you'll feel the soft smooth lips.

 Packaging
Same as normal packaging of a lip balm. 
Price
It is a lot cheaper when you buy 3 in a pack.  
Performance
This is very smooth and it smells nice without any additional fragrance. It does not leave your lips sticky. They should name themselves : chap-no-more. =D
I've applied it on my lips when I put on my lip gloss on the picture above.
Pros
Easy to use, put on smoothly, chap lips are gone, absorbs very well. 
Cons
The chocolate flavor has a very strong scent, preferably more long lasting.
Repurchasing
Yes when the sale/deal is on again.

Overall Score :  9.0 / 10.0   
_________________________________________________________________________

Hope you enjoy this review and don't hesitate to contact them if you have any problems. They get the point that we girls like surprise all the time. I'll definitely purchase beauty items from them again.
Wish you have a good weekend and STAY SWEET

Relax Melodies | Application

Hey peeps, how's ya'll doing? These days are quite good for me. I hope you're same as me. Currently I'm planning my coming Hong Kong trip in November/December. Any good suggestions for places to go or food to try and MUST BUY things in Hong Kong? 

Back to our main topic, today is Wednesday which is "application day". These days the weather is not good which makes us more stressful than we usually are. 

To destress ourselves, I think Music is one of the best way to get through it. Hence, I went to App Store and look for a relaxing music app and I've found this absolutely amazing app that can be used daily before sleep. 

This is what they (the producers) claim :


It literally helps me sleep better and relaxes my mind before I sleep. After using this app, my insomnia has been reduced and I have not had any nightmares or waking up in the middle of my sleep.


 It also claims that it improves our health by listening to these music. I couldn't confirm this claim as I'm not any experts.

There are a view range of musics of different types of situations.


 As you can see, there are 50 types of musics that you can mix around with.

This is a few musics combination that I think they're matching and I listen to them almost every single day.


It has different sizes due to different Iphone products Apple has. It suits iphone 4,4s,5,5s and even 6. When you're listening to them and you think you need your screen to be dark and comfortable that suits your lights-off room, you can click on the "clock" button and this will show.


 You can swap around to adjust the brightness and the background view. The brightness can be darker than usual Iphone brightness which is quite dark already.

If you don't have a good combination of musics, you may use the recommended or suggested musics according to your preference. 


 Or you can make your own and save them here. 

As you know the aim of this app is to improve your sleep, but you don't want to waste your battery and keep on playing the musics while you sleep. They concerned about this problem and they have this sort of "auto" closing application settings.


 You can set the "exit app" setting and turn it on. It will automatically switch off the music by itself. Besides, you may also use the alarm setting that is provided in this app. Therefore, you won't be late for school or work on the next day. 

After all these explanations, if you wonder where you can get this app, you may click HERE (Iphone User) and HERE (Android User)


 It's is totally free in App Store but I'm not sure for Play Store. Both Apple and Android have a great rating for this app from the users. 

Hope you enjoy this app and STAY SWEET.

Food Finder | Subang Jaya

Beep beep beep...Food finder on the GO, Tuesday is far from Friday, we need goody food to satisfy our cravings.

Get your taste buds ready and FOLLOW me.

 We'll start off with appetizer / side dish of the day with this EXTREMELY famous Rojak (Indian Mix Vegetables with special Sauce)


Yes!!! This is the only Roadside Rojak Stall that offers me crisps only. I was so lucky and for only once I get to ask for this only.
Look at the yummy sauce that makes my saliva drips continuously.


There are a lot of other options can be put in your rojak. It is totally vegan. It is made by this guy with one of his partner. 

These are the options you can order
Rojak with Squid and Egg (RM4.50 around $1.40)
 Rojak with Squid (RM4.00 around  $1.20)
Rojak with Egg (RM4.00 around $1.20)
Normal Rojak (RM3.50 around $1.10)

 Usually Malaysians will order Rojak with Egg where the eggs taste absolutely amazing with the sauces they've put in.

If you are heading to this rojak stall, you may have to queue up at least 5-15minutes depends which period you're going.


This is one of the picture while waiting for the long queue.

Their opening hours usually from 1100hours to 1800hours daily. You may check out their address @ Rojak SS15.

After finishing your appetizer, drinks will be served. No one could ever resist Cendol especially in a hot country like Malaysia.


This is how they pack when you asked for a takeaway. The brown liquid at the bottom is gula Melaka (a special made sugar syrup from Melaka), top up with coconut milk and a packet of ice with the greenish jelly-like stuff. 


This is a closer look when you "dine-in" which you can get this at a cheaper price because you get less portion. The price range from RM 1.80 to RM 2.50. This cendol stall is on the top-10 cendol stall in Kuala Lumpur.

This is located 2 stalls next to Rojak stall, which is 5 seconds walking distance I believe. The address as shown.


Look at the queue again, you literally have to queue up for this from time to time. It opens everyday 1000hours to 1600hours or 1700hours depends when they've finished selling their drinks.

This is the top 10 recommended drinks to try in Malaysia. Usually Chinese cendol and Indian cendol have different taste, you may try both of them.

Without further ado and your half or almost full tummy, let's get into our main course.


Let's try the Malay Nasi Lemak which is located in between Rojak and Cendol stall. This is literally the cheapest and the most delicious nasi lemak I've ever had. The price range from RM 1.50 to RM 4.50 ($0.50 - $1.40). Nasi lemak's meat has a great variation except pork because Malaysia is a Halal country.

Sambal (a kind of red chili paste as shown in the picture) is the soul of nasi lemak. They are so great that I couldn't use words to describe them. A kind tips : ask for the crisps beside fried chicken, it's free and it goes so well with whatever that is on the plate to be served.

 Get ready for dessert yay??


This is Indian fried food as you can see in the photo, personally recommend curry puff which is amazing but not like holy grail food like what I've mentioned earlier but it's good enough to be served as dessert.

If you would want Malay fried food they're right at the back at these stalls. Both Indian and Malay fried food are pretty cheap with RM 1 ($0.30) you'll get like 3-5 fried food with your choice.

OR

You could get a refreshing drink like coconut water to let the food run down to your stomach because I know you'll be super full. 


In this little corner or street you may find most of the Malaysian food which people claim that they're extremely good here, but there's always something you'll need to pay off in order to get good treats, the pay off for these good food is------you'll have to stand and enjoy your food as well as taking in the heat in the afternoon.


This is a roadside view of the food stalls at the opposite side of the road. As you can see people tend to sit in the hot sun on a road bump to enjoy the good food. Therefore, you know how tasty is the food is, people sacrifices for them.

Hope you enjoy this and have a good week
