---------------------

Oops, did I hurt your feelings~~~~? Too bad if you can't take a joke.

So I'm Going to Singapore *_*

Plans are pretty much set for Singapore =D I decided that I needed a break since my last holiday was in May 2009 which was the Langkawi trip XD;; Tickets are all booked and I'm deciding on what to look for there *_* I am still moping over not being able to go for Shimokawa Mikuni's concert so let me plan on how I'll be able to spend my money since I can't get the tickets.

  1. Check out TOPSHOP makeup range!
    Only 4 cities carry TOPSHOP's makeup range at the moment. London, NY, Dubai and Singapore! Best part is, prices range from SGD9 to SGD23 which is considerably cheap looking at how pricey their clothes are!

  2. SEPHORAAAAAA
    My inner child dream is to camp at Sephora ION Orchard~ <3 Largest Sephora store in Asia and second in size to the biggest one in the world *o* It is a must stop place for me!

  3. Checkered cloth for Kooh
    I've never seen how awesome the selection of cloth is at SG ;_;

  4. Update my stash of comics~!
    Saiyuki Reload and Junjou Romantica here I come~~~~~~~ XD I just found out Saiyuki Reload vol 8 and 9 is out and also..... Junjou Romantica vol 8 to 11 is out T___T my moneyyyyyyy  CAN I HAS THIS ON MY WISHLIST? T___T

  5. Raid Kiss Me aisle
    I've been hooked on Kiss Me ever since I bought the falsies. The details on the lashes is like no other and it's perfect for cosplay photoshoots =D. Goggled around and found that their mascara is infamous with tons of reviews from bloggers.

  6. Charles & Keith shoe hunting
    I heard it's dirt cheap in Singapore, around $30? It's a minimum RM129 here in KL!!!! Gwarrrr I shall rape that store! >A<

Review: Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque


I'm on a review roll! I found out that besides St Ives, Queen Helene's scrub is also a star product with many good reviews so I ordered one bottle as the price is quite decent (around RM23 including shipping). Sadly this product isn't available in Malaysia so I had to join one of the spree threads in LYN. Item came in after 2 months, gosh I almost forgot all about it, but instead of a scrub, I found a Masque instead *stares* and my scrub is nowhere to be seen until now D8 The person managing the spree accidentally packed the wrong item in x_X thankfully the rest of the items are exactly what I ordered.


Anyways, this mask comes in a big tube, about 226.8 grams, quite a decent amount for that price. The tube material is very thick @_@ I suspect I might have difficulties squeezing it out when it's about to finish.  The mask is said to dry up pimples, shrink large pores and rinses away bleakheads. Now that definitely sounds like a solution for my nose area 8D;; The mask comes in an icky seaweed green color and smells minty or in Audrey's words 'Smells like Clorets!'. Suitable for those with oily skin as it latches on all the impurities and oil on your pores. After I applied it, I felt a burning sensation on my skin @A@;;; like someone applied cili padi on my face haha but the feeling didn't last very long. Left the mask on for 15 minutes and then rinsed my face with warm water.


I'm not sure if it removes my blackheads as I've never be able to tell =3=;; but I can tell you that my face feels much cleaner. I used it quite often lately as it relieves the pain on my pimples x__X. I've been suffering from huge breakouts thanks to the Eumora. Phillip says that it's the soap doing its job of detox-ing my face and the pimples should be gone by week 3. These are really some of the worst pimples I've ever had ;_; oil seeds are coming out non stop from the same pimple *facepalms* and my chin is suffering the worst *sigh* The pimples are so bad till it hurts to touch it D8 and they're so sensitive, I've accidentally popped it too many times in a day. Hope this phase passes by soon x_X.

Battle of Blushers!

I've finally received my NYX blusher after 2 months of waiting D8 so I took the chance to make a side to side comparison with my ELF blusher.


I had to wait till a Saturday to put these 2 blushers in natural lighting. Looks the same color doesn't it? XD;;


At a glance, both colors looks the same. ELF comes in a nice sleek package with a mirror which isn't really very handy =/ I would still prefer my compact mirror to look at while I do my makeup. I love the pan since it's big and wide so it's easy to cover the brush with blush powder. NYX blusher comes with a see through cover so it's easy to pick through the blush color of your choice if you have a few of these. I just hate the casing cuz it's so thick and looks cheap compared to ELF's. Price wise, i got the ELF blusher for RM10 while the NYX blusher was a bit pricy about RM20+



Swatches! On the left is from the NYX palette and on the right is from the ELF palette.


Both palettes are similar colors but when you swipe them, they turn out differently 8D;; The effects are different when I used the brush. The ELF blusher gives a very dewy finish on my cheeks and it's so subtle that it won't show in photos lol. The NYX swatch looks very dark but when I took the powder with my brush, the color came out just right on my cheeks <3. I'm so tempted to trash my ELF palette now cuz it's very difficult to get the color out x_X.

1 <3 Hada Labo Event! Oh The Happiness!!!

I am so glad I registered for Hada Labo's exclusive event! Hada Labo had an event which is only opened to the first 35 people who registered *_*. I was a bit reluctant to go at first since need to pay RM20 fee and I was broke but when I saw the venue (Fukuya Japanese Cuisine!) and the prices of the food there, I thought to my self wat the heck! and immediately signed up for it.

Audrey drove us there and the car jockey service was free since we were there for an event *w* We registered ourselves and was given a huge card where we had to fill our details, sign 1 <3 Hada Labo in the most creative away and tell in less than 15 words why we love Hada Labo @A@;;


Thick plastic hearts with Hada Labo's logo they gave to us =D



We were treated to a photoshoot but the requirement is to pose with the blue heart XD;;


While waiting for all the lucky 35 people to arrive, me and Audrey went jakun around the premises.



The walkway from the parking area to the entrance of the restaurant.



The room there is actually a private dining area if not mistaken. There's at least 3-4 of these rooms in Fukuya



'stage' area



Product display according to range



Tester section~ Can I test the mask? >D



After some speeches and a group photo with all the participants. IT'S FOOD TIME! See the fat salmon slices! *drools*



Tempura~~~~~ I tried a bit of the scallop but it's not my thing I guess >< This is a lot of food to be shared among 2-3 people. Our table had 5 people so we had 2 sets of each tray. There was leftovers ;__; what a waste *sobs* We were served with Macha Green Tea ice-cream for dessert *_* but I forgot to take a picture.



During our meal, there was a presentation of Hada Labo's product range and the description of how each range works.


There was also a Lucky Draw session and then a hands on demonstration of how Hada Lado's lotion works. The staff measured our moisture level before applying the lotion and then measured again after the lotion application. My moisture level was 29.4% before and it shot up to 50.4% after using the lotion XD;; If the reading is indeed true then this is a hell lot better than Laneige's Water Bank range! The participant with the biggest difference of moisture level wins a prize haha! The winner's moisture level was from 21% boosted to 70% @A@ wth.


After the demo session, we were given a goodie bag each *o*/ I got excited when I saw the box inside!!!!! It felt like there was a lot of items *_* Audrey opened her goodie bag immediately haha.



Pretty box yes? *o*



*spazzes* Hada Labo!!! you are so generous!!! Thank you!!! <333333 Full size items are: lip balm, face mist spray and moisturizing cream! Sample size items: lotion, cleanser and 1 mask sheet.



We got to bring back a photo too! <3 I love this photog cuz I don't look ugly here! *cries happily* The Salabianca and Clinique photos was just plain SHITTY!



Lastly group photo of the 3 of us <3


THANK YOU HADA LABO!!!!!!

Review: Shu Uemura Cleansing Oil Fresh


Ah yes~ The famed cleansing oil is now in my hands mwahahhahahahahaha *coughs*. It took me 2 years to buy it =w=;; All this while I've attended their cleansing oil demos and seen good results so I thought of buying it but being a student, it's really pricey to spend RM260 at one go for a cleansing product D8 Now that I'm working, it's an entirely different thing! *_* I bought the cleansing oil some time last month as they had a RM10 rebate for every RM100 spent so me and Ying Ling got a bottle of cleansing oil each and the eyelash curlers as well. Both which are the star items of Shu Uemura. Oh yeah, we both became Shu members too =D I got the pink bottle as it's suitable for oily or acne prone skin :3


I came home and immediately opened the cleansing oil and started using it. After cleansing my face, I still had the greasy/oily feeling on my face but after patting my face dry, I get this velvety feeling on my face which feels kind of weird. At first I thought maybe I didn't wash it properly, but even after a week of using and rinsing it 5-6 times, I still get that greasy/oily feeling so end up I had to use 2 cleansers just to have my face clean. Other than that, it works as a great makeup remover but honestly, I could achieve that with Fasio's makeup remove and Biore's cleansing wipes and that only costs less than RM50 altogether!


This is just my opinion on the product. I'm sadly one of the 10% of the population that can't use this D8. Most of the reveiws are good if you check online. If anyone's interested, I'm selling this away for RM190 (450ml) used less than 10 times. Other skincare items such as Assata Scar Serum and Polynia Face Scrub, you can refer to my selling thread here.

Close Shave! 8D


Damn another close shave last night. I can really consider myself a lucky bastard x_X. I was driving home along Jalan Semantan heading towards KL after work around 8pm. The road was heading downhill and there was a slight jam so I stepped on the breaks. The moment I stepped on the breaks, the wheels screeched, my car started skidding @A@;; and was heading towards to the yellow divider. Omg those horrible skidding sounds are still ringing in my brain and the experience of not being able to control my car was damn fuck scary TT_TT. I tried to turn the wheel to the left to get back onto my lane but it was so difficult to control the steering wheel that I accidentally turned too much and I ended up in my neighbor's lane @@;; I finally got my car onto my lane and ended up inches away from the car in front of me.


During the whole incident..... NO ONE HONKED @A@;;;; Either everyone was too stunned or it was normal for them to see cars skidding at that area!!!! I was so confused whether the incident really happened or it was just a dream cuz no one honked me x_X. I was so sure I'd either crash into the divider or bang into my neighbor, thank godsssssss >A<

It Has Arrived!!!!!!

I collected my NYX and Coastal Scents spree items! =D and boy don't they look just fabulous <3


Only 3 of the items are mine ;__; Combined order with Megu and Kemu



And my pretty pretty palette~ I tried a makeup test with only my eyeliner, CS palette black eyeshadow and my NYX black lipstick



Scary! XD That's why I made the picture smaller! >< and I didn't put foundation so you can see all my pimples ;__; but I love how the eye makeup made my eyes sharper.


A few reviews coming up soon ><

JuJu's Barfday


The birthday gal! =D


Last Thursday was Julia's birthday so we had a mini celebration at office.



At night, we shifted the celebration to The Beer Factory, Sunway Giza. I didn't plan to go TwT since I know I won't be able to wake up the next day but office had a trip thanks to TNB so me and Fiyond piled into Lex's car. All photos in this entry are from his cam =) and most of them are so blurry T____T



Most decent picture of all 4 of us



Got forced to drink some Hoegaarden >w< I still hate beer and I have no idea what Fiyond is doing there LOL



Another decent picture with humans in it TwT/



My first time seeing a flaming lamborghini @w@ *noob*


After a few hours, the noise level got unbearable for me x_X so I took Lex's camera and went to take pictures of FullHouse.




Pretty fountain at the entrance *w*



Omg! There's black at FullHouse! I always thought the color is non-existent in there XD



We had our camwhoring moments there



I like the setting this time cuz there's less white!!! <3

Review: Leptin Slimming Cocoa Weight Loss Drink


Oh this is so overdue. I bought 2 boxes of this in June, just enough to last 1 month and 1 week. I normally take this after my breakfast and I'll be full for the rest of the day haha.


Directions: Take one pack a day in the mid-morning with 100ml hot water (serve as traditional hot chocolate). Recommended minimum of 2 litres of water per day.


This drink comes with a huge problem for me, which is to drink 2 liters of water a day =A=;; I barely drink 500ml a day and this is asking for 4 times more @_@ so I got a 1 liter bottle to keep on my desk so that I can keep track of my water consumption. I had to stop the next week since I had my period TwT but the effects were noticeable =D I lost 3kg after using Leptin for a week (5 days to be exact), my brain was more alert than usual and I find it much easier to wake up in the morning. Even after a week of not consuming Leptin, my appetite did not grow any bigger XD and also I am much more awake during boring meetings hahaha which is a huge plus point for my books.


I got this Leptin drink from an LYN seller here. Do buy from her if you're interested as she's very quick in responding and was so kind to include a few plums with my parcel <3 No I am not paid to advertise this lol.

My Experience with Eumora


Nao's brother Phillip recommended this soap to me I think at least a year ago but I refused to use it cuz being stubborn as I am, I was hoping for a skincare product that could suit my problematic face. I'm suffering from majorly huge acne breakouts, skin that is oily enough to remove liquid eyeliner off my eyes and dry cheeks. With the amount of freebies I'm grabbing and trying, I thought I'd sure find the perfect skin care solution for me but this month my acne just got a lot much worse =(. I tried switching my skin care, changing my diet and slept before 12 =( but after 2 weeks, all I see is more pimples popping up like mushrooms.... there were about 5 HUGE ones around my chin area ONLY!! *screams and tears hair*


After debating so long, I finally decided to order a bar of soap from Phillip since it was only RM50 a bar now. This product is your one stop solution for every skin problem and it replaces your cleansers, toners, moisturizers, serums, sunblock to give you radiant flawless skin. Now wonder why am I so skeptical about this product? So starting from Last Monday, I halted all my skincare products and only used the soap... and I was flying in the clouds for the rest of the week!


24 hours after using the soap, the 2 major pimples on my nose was going down and they were less red! From the looks of it, they shouldn't leave a scar on my face! <3 The last time I had these pimples around that area, it took ages to disappear and the scar was there for at least 1 month+ before it disappeared!!! Day 2, I start to notice that my pores are not so gigantic and my face looks less saggy =D Some areas on my skin seems to be flaky and there's some small scabs near the places where my skin is peeling. I searched online and seems like this is the effect of the products as it dries the skin to kill the pimples. The drying sensation is also caused by the combined effect of pore tightening and the skin peeling is the removal of dead skin cells while the tightening feeling is the firming effect (description taken from A Beauty Haven). Can it be, my pore tightens and squeezes out the dirt? 8D I hope so!


While I was using the soap, I noticed that it smelled terrible, turns out it was just the smell of the dirt surfacing on my face o___o. I'm superbly happy with this soap~~~~ =D so I won't be hunting cleansers for a loooong while *_*

So You Think You're Being Abused

After the latest stunt made by the cosplayers of today, I finally decided to make a rage post. It's been quite some time a bunch of cosplayers started making noise about how they're been abused and used for commercialism purposes. Things got worse when Cosplay for Fun, We Cosplay to Express Not to Impress and Cosplay Republic came up. It's like the biggest gathering of hypocrites, attention whores and fame suckers.

These people who so called go by the principle that cosplay is for fun are the same people that participate in competitions organized by companies to attract crowd. They compete and gasak the prize then proceed to update their FaceBook status 'OMG WE COSPLAYERS HAVE BEEN ABUSED'. See where I'm going? I don't think you people even understand what is ABUSE. Wanna know what is abuse? Compare yourself to a circus monkey =_=.

Then comes the era of cosplayers going against cosplay for commercialism *laughs*. It started pretty much thanks to NIPS and the stupdity of cosplayers. Already their Facebook event page looks as fishy as it is and looking at how they're marketing the event itself, you could tell it's a pretty big thing but noooooooooo, cosplayers being shitty airheads decided to join since greed clouds their eyes and all of their attention was on the prize (wow it rhymes!). After the first round, contestant comes back and updates their status and flame on FB about how they're being abused for commercialism. Well, too bad for you minorities who couldn't see it coming from a mile away.

So if anyone is to be blamed for all the bloody mess it's YOU BLOODY GREEDY COSPLAYERS. Companies have been generous enough to offer a incentive or good prizes for cosplayers and if you don't think it's good enough then don't fucking join in the first place.Yet these ungrateful hypocrites go compete, bag the prize and then go bitch. Just because it's a little difficult to get the prize money, cosplayers go bitch that they're being abused. Well you know what? Money doesn't come easy and you have to earn it. If it's so difficult for you to spend a few days to compete for some prize money, equivalent to 2-3 months of allowance then don't join!

After the commercialism era, next comes to the era whereby cosplayers only swear to attend events that are organized by non-profit organizations. Well I have no problem with that but that doesn't mean you can start wearing character wigs, put a wardrobe together and hop around. It's just plain degrading to the character and I feel sad just seeing it. If you pride yourself as a cosplayer, fucking make a complete one for gods sake.

Cosplayers today just wanted to be treated like royalty! =_= Demanding for a buffet table, complaining how it's too difficult to go up to the 14th floor and being harassed by the public every 5 steps they take. Well guess what? Comic Fiesta's objective has bloody nothing to do with protecting the welfare of cosplayers. We're not SPCA - Society of Prevention of Cosplay Asshattery (Thank you Ezel~ XD). Go make your own. At this rate, the quality of cosplay in Malaysia is going down, beating Singapore's

Yay Malaysia Boleh~ *snarls*

(sigh I'm finding it so hard to construct my sentences and facts properly)

Ken's Ghey Vid

Unmotivated, lazy and bored pretty much describes how I'm feeling right now. So unhappy about so many things that I wanna sit at a corner and cry. Thank gods for my work ~_~;; not that work keeps me busy but I enjoy working and enjoy staying at office. I suspect I'm easily pissed lately cuz I owe my parents RM1.5k for the car and house expenditures so I'm starving myself to pay the bill =__=;; Parents say I can pay them in installments but I hate paying installments. Returning the money for the BlackBerry was so difficult itself (3 months installments *screams*) I can't imagine having another long debt on my list.... plus I'm going to Singapore next month so I want some spending money instead of another month of starving.

Why I starve? Cuz I'm scared of being short on money, so I never do spend on things until my next salary comes in then only I'll start using the money from my current salary. This month, my expenditures are extra heavy thanks to so many birthdays ;__; so I've used my food money for pressies and expensive expensive food XD;;

So.. hungry *dies* Thank gods I still have the weight drink. Can use it to suppress my hunger pangs XD;;

PS: The title of the entry has no link to the blogpost whatsoever XD;; I was watching Jay Sean's Down PV and it just looked absolutely ghey.

Mischievous at Work~

Last Thursday we were bored and my Art Director was doodling so we came up with this idea to make a sign for the female toilet. One of our male colleagues kept using the female toilet XD;; and honestly, there's more females in the office so we don't need to have another extra person to fight with us.


Hard at work! XD



OUR MASTERPIECE!


Of course my boss saw it and he complained we lacked a LOT of details. I don't think I need to explain myself =P

Shu Uemura neo-Tokyo Lash Party


Total last minute thing as I RSVP-ed 6 hours before the event XD;; It was only opened to the first 100 Shu Fanatics and since I've recently became a Shu member, might as well abuse the benefits *_* I know for one thing, Shu gives out good GOODIE BAGS! *O*. So I clocked out at 5.30pm on the dot and rushed to MidValley *_* good thing SPRINT isn't jammed till Bangsar area so I arrived there by 6.15pm, just in time before they gave the goodie bags to the public >_> Yes Shu Uemura is stupid, they made us RSVP and goodie bags will only be reserved till 6.30pm wtf, otherwise, it'll be given out to public *fantoi*



The food spread :3



SALMON~~~ <3<3<3  Food was from Delicious and indeed it was DELICIOUS <3



Some cheesy stuff which didn't really appeal to me



Mini burgers which tasted oh-s0-good! *w* The bread was crispy and warm! The patty was nicely done *o*



Visitors can fill up the form and redeem a cleansing oil sample and an eyebrow trimming session. Ying Ling got her brows trimmed but I'd rather stick to threading >_> I find trimming is just a con job for extra cash. They trim your brows till almost botak and then use the eyebrow pencil to cover their mistakes! Con job that costs RM50! pfft



Make up demo by Lisa Yap, International Accredited Artist & Eyebrow Expert



All done with only gel eyeliner *salutes*



Freebies for the dayyy *w* I forgot to put the Laneige lipgloss together ><;;
