Haul pt 1

Aloha beautiful humans!
I wish y'all having a great day ahead although it's already 3pm (GMT +8) in the afternoon and half of your day gone without any notice.
It's okay being guilty as today is the glorious Saturday.

A lil nasty but grow a pair of o-glorious wings and break free like that sumo dude. 

Today is a day that my inspiration hits me hard during my brunch time. 

Imma do a haul post - about my shoe obsessions. 

I have like...... 87364298194 pairs of shoes,  *no judging and no kidding*

but I only wear a few pairs, the others are eating dust.. I don't know and I'm sorry.

#1 Reebok SubLite Run in Purple 

A beauty isn't?

I got dem twins at Royal Sporting House in Bangsar Mall. 

If they had the black one I'll definitely get the black one, but never mind. Purple just gets better and better.

I figured out that it's better to get a pair of stylish running shoe cuz I can run in them and also hang out in them. 

No point getting 2 different pairs to suit the occasions. 

(RE: I'm a student, I don't have any income, and I'm like a frog in a warm pool of GST) 

I usually pair this twins with almost every outfit, 

a dress for a date, 

any top with a pair of jeans, 

sweaters and shorts/skirts. 

They are very versatile and I'm glad I got the purple pair, 

It's not too dull (unless you are a black/white only kind of humans) and really easy to match with any colours. Especially yellow. 

#2 Rubi ethnic/boho pointy flats with ankle strap

One of my favourite everday flats from my fav Aussie brand. 

I really like the weaving patterns at the tip and at the back of this flats. 

Really unique and goes well with simple styling. 

I usually wear this when I'm heading out to the mall or for casual occasions, 

a sheer or plain top with a pair of black/white jeans,

an ethnic/boho sundress, 

an ethnic/boho top with shorts. 

The design and pattern is strong and a lil edgy, but also bringing out the femininity. 

Huge thanks to the ankle strap! (I'm a lil bias towards flats with ankle straps)

That's why it made into the list. 

#3 Rubi Sadie laser cut slipper in White 

My sister bought this home one day and it hit me just right there. 

The design is simple and a little boyish, 

which can neutralize any ver-the-top-girlish-outfit. 

Since this pair of footwear is in white, 

it can instantly brighten up my overall appearance, especially when I'm pairing with clothes in darker colours. 

I usually wear this pair to college or any casual occasion that requires a lot of walking or big movements, (you can identify I wear this often by looking at the crumpled area)

basically it goes well with any style and it's suitable all year round. 

So, no worries that it will go outdated someday.

#4 Rubi ethnic stripes strap sandals

I bought this with my sister last year for the Chinese New Year.
New year, new shoes.
It's really comfortable to wear because my feet is not sweating and the sandals won't stink (unless you step into a pile of poo, I'm sorry and remember to buy Toto/magnum/da ma cai).
This pair of sandals is my very first ethnic print item during my obsession for ethnic style and I value it a lot.
I wear this to college often and just match it with simple outfit style,
any top with a pair of jeans, 
a simple plain sundress mainly in white or reddish pastel colours, 
loose top and shorts mainly to the beach or park. 
It's really hot (all year round) in Malaysia and strap sandals is a wiser choice to slip in when walking under the boiling sun, in style.

#5 Converse low rise in Cream

As mentioned in previous post,
I'm a SUCKER for Converse.
I have 2 pairs of them, one is this and another pair in in red high rise.
But I think this cream colour sneaker are more versatile and matches with more of my outfit than the red ones.
Maybe because of the neutral colour, or maybe it's in cream colour.
I like yellow, and cream is really, really, really pale yellow.
I like wearing this in just any casual occasions and to the college - except shoe shopping.
Matching this with my outfit makes me looks casual-not-laid-back and like an easy-going kind of person,
any top with a pair of jeans or shorts (again), 
a sundress (again). 
The best thing about this is also because is blends well with almost every colour and does not make your colour combination go overboard.
Converse always slays it.

#6 Jane Holli pointy pumps in Beige

The one and only pair of heels that I consider myself go often in it.
I got this because some mood swing or one of the Japanese magazine hit me,
Beige heels are actually quite useful and easy to play with.
I can wear this with formal office wear, 
or when I am feeling a lil sexy - sweetheart neckline tube top with skinny jeans/jumpsuits, 
or any top with a pair of skinnys (again), 
or in any outfit for date/luncheons/formal attending like wedding dinner. 
One and only air of heels, but useful in my everyday life.

So these 6 pairs of apparels are basically my everyday footwear, although I have only a pair of feet.
Get your choice right, and you won't need to get a few more pairs of unnecessary... or not.

Weeeeee: KOSÉ SEKKISEI Lotion Mask Giveaway

[Sponsored post] 

I'm so nervous but also happy and the same time because......
It's my second product review and my very first giveaway.

IT'S GIVEAWAY TIME~

The first ever giveaway product is the KOSÉ SEKKISEI Lotion Mask.

It's not a new brand in Malaysia.
Basically you can find it it in leading department stores such as Isetan or Parkson.
BFF Jesssica told me her cousin sister is a hardcore fan of  KOSÉ.
Having loyal customers like her means KOSÉ is doing a very good job in improvising and managing their products.

Frankly speaking, I'm not really a big fan of sheet mask. 

I used to use a lot of them when several famous Korean Cosmetic brands just landed in Malaysia. 

Honestly, the sheet masks were all wet and sticky, my face always ended up dust or some tissue paper stick at my face. 

People said you need to pat those essence into your skin. 

I pat it, and my face was still sticky, my fingers were always getting stickier and sticker. 

I need my poker face. 

So I'm trying out this new product which consist of this KOSÉ SEKKISEI Lotion.

Comes in bottle of 200ml ( RM170) and 360ml  (RM260). 
Available at every KOSE counters at leading department stores.

Benefits of KOSÉ SEKKISEI Lotion:

• Brighten up your complexion. 
• Balancing oil and moisture of your skin. 
• Able to calm skin inflammation that caused by excessive sun exposure. 
• Even your skin tone. 
• Tighten your pores. 
• Moisturize --- Boost up to 10 times!  

This lotion is made from these 3 ingredients:

1) Coix Seed Extract 

Increasing metabolism, whitening, moisturizing and preventing skin roughness. 

2) Angelica Extract 

Main ingredients for bath liquids. Appears to be a good agent of disinfectant, whitening and moisturizing. 

3) Melothria (White Lotus) extract 

Helps to suppresses melanin production (main cause of us having dark skin) and can helps to whiten the skin.

I can feel my skin is calling for the mighty power of the lotion sheet mask.
Thanks to Nuffnang My and  KOSÉ SEKKISEI for providing me a few samples.
Let's get started!

You can see little pores in my face.
My skin is dry to combination skin.
Like the usual, T zone is oily and and cheeks are way to dry.
I wash my face with my facial cleanser, dry it, and pull the mask out of the little package and lay it on ma face.

Be really careful with it because when I was pulling the mask, essence are leaking out XD
My first thought after applying this mask is that the mask is not sticky at all.
It's really not sticky at all!!
I'm so surprised!!
Unlike the usual sheet mask that has sticky essense,
this is light and watery, comes with a soothing sensation that cools/calms your skin.
It has a mild scent of herbs and alcohol, I'm comfortable with it.
Just be sure when you are laying the mask on your face, NEVER EVER LET THE ESSENCE ENTER YOUR EYES.
Just let the mask sets on your face for 5 minutes and you are done!

Done.
You can see it from the photo,
I finally have hydrated skin.
And my pores tighten a little because when I touch my face,
I feel smooth and softness.
Not trying to exaggerate but this is what I feel about my skin after applying the mask.
Well, it's my first time so I'm gonna use it a few more times to be sure =X

Dad and My first little review

So My Dad is back from Johor for the weekends and he is going back to Johor tomorrow. 
So busy. 
Never mind, at least I get to watch football with him. 
Man Utd vs Aston Villa, we didn't really put high hopes on this games. 
Oh, Aston Villa just scored. 
WTF. 

Someone just teach him how to win. 
I'm gonna break the TV into half. SOON. 

AH, about my review. 
It's my first ever beauty review. 
Confetti, champagne, celebrations y'all. 

A toast to me and my first review. 
And I'm introducing y'all a moisturizer for face which I think it's quite good. In My opinion. 

RM59.90 for 50ml. 
Quite reasonable for an organic brand because everything in Malaysia is getting more expensive than ever.  
It's from The Body Shop and it's a day cream which you apply it only on day time. 
I wash my face, pat with toner and then I apply this day cream then I put on my makeup. 
Easy as that. 

One of the reasons I like this cream because it moisture my face, very cooling and it prevent any excess oil from popping out but then, my face doesn't gets too dry.
The thing is like this, 

when your face is too dry --- makeup meltdown, BIG TIME. 
when your face is too oily --- another makeup meltdown, look just like cake batter. 

So this cream can prevent the 2 horrible scenes above from happening on your face. 
Which is very important because makeup meltdown makes people look ugly.
And this cream has a light scent, not too strong or smell like antibiotic syrup, I'm comfortable with it. 
Just apply a thin coat of this cream on your face before putting any sunblock or whatever, 
and voila.  

Therefore, I like this cream and this is a sincere review, hope this can help people who suffer from makeup meltdown and other people who wanted to purchase any moisturizer. 

Oh, Man Utd 2 and Aston Villa 1. 
It's only half time, I don't expect much.
