BEAUTY | Review : Bourjois City Radiance Foundation & Radiance Reveal Concealer

Assalamualaikum and hello.

Today we are going to talk about my favourite part of makeup, foundation and concealer. I am a base junkie and I am up to try any kind of foundation and concealer because I think base is one of the basic thing that everyone should pay attention to. Today we are going to take a closer look on Bourjois City Radiance Foundation and Bourjois Radiance Reveal Concealer. I have been testing out both of these products for about 2 months now, and it is safe to say that I have finally come to a conclusion how I feel about these two. Let's start!

HEART TO HEART | BABY TALK : Taking care of a sick baby

Asslamualaikum and hello.

I am currently sick right now, the flu, sore throats, coughing and feeling feverish. I don't even remember when was the last time I got sick. But to go way back to the 'maybe' reason why I got sick is could be from the fact that I have been taking care of my poor sick baby since the beginning of August. Just a little information, Marissa has only got a fever once before our trip to Langkawi, and that was it. She recovered within one night. There were about 2 occasions where she got flu and cough but they went away in a couple of days.

SEPHORA Turns 5!

Assalamualaikum and hello.

Just a quick post to congratulate Sephora Malaysia for it's 5th Anniversary!! Yeahhhh I went to the celebration party several weeks back and I had tonnes of fun with my girlies.

BEAUTY | Review : The Face Shop Natural Sun Eco Ice Air Puff Sun SPF50+/PA+++

Assalamualaikum and hello!

I am very particular with my sunblock because I don't like sunblock which is heavy on the skin, leave white cast and greasy. I don't have any favourite sun care products because it is hard to find something that fits my preference. Until about 3 or 4 weeks ago, I discovered a new sun care product and it is safe to say that it is my favourite now. THEFACESHOP Natural Sun Eco Ice Air Puff Sun SPF50+/PA+++ is a sun care product that contains purified extract of Sunflower Seed extract that protects the skin from UV rays that could damage our skin. It is formulated without paraben and phenoxyethanol that can be harmful to the skin.

BEAUTY | Lancôme is now in IOI City Mall

Assalamualaikum and hello.

I want to share quick update about the latest Lancôme outlet in IOI City Mall, Putrajaya! They finally have their own beauty kiosk located at G-K3 (Groud Floor), the same floor as Sephora. *hehehe* I have been to IOI City Mall for 3 times and I kinda like the mall because there are so many stores and so many choices! *hahahaha* Well just letting you know from a shopaholic point of view. :P But I really suggest coming to this mall during weekdays because this mall usually packed on the weekends. I was there at 10.30 a.m and the place was literally empty. :D I just wished that I have more time that day so I can shop more.

HEART TO HEART | Believe In Yourself

Assalamualaikum and hello.

If you have to go back to 10 years ago, would you imagine yourself in today's position? Would you ever thought this is what you will be doing now? I never thought my life will be this way if I were to think about my 10 years plan back then. I always thought (when I was 20 years old), I would be married by the age of 24, have 3 kids by the age of 30, have a striving career before I hit 30. Those are my plans but guess what? They did not happen. I planned so hard to be "successful" before the age of 30 but I forgot that life in unpredictable. Things don't go your way all the time. And what's the fuss about having to be ALL THAT before 30? As I see my life right now and how much changes I have gone through for the past 8 years, oh boy. What a surprise! Everything comes together when I was reaching the age of 30 and I have no regrets. Everything falls into places perfectly.

BEAUTY | CLARINS Shaping Facial Lift Range

Assalamualaikum and hello love!

I gotta admit, being a new mom has changed so many things about me. Well, lets just put aside my body shape. T_T My face has been so round and chubby due to the increase of my body weight. I've seen quite a number of products on how to have sharper feature and that V shape face but I don't think I have come across anything promising. It's not just about the face, bigger eyes is also a favourite feature among Asian women. Okay so bigger eyes is not my concern because I already have that feature but I definitely want my eyes to be less puffy, less fine lines and no eye bags. CLARINS Shaping Facial Lift range has 3 products that can get you that V shape face and bigger eyes. 2 new products joining in the existing Shaping Facial Lift Serum is the V-Facial Intensive Wrap and Enhancing Eye Lift Serum. There you go, a complete facial reshaping program for that perfect V-face contouring approach.

CLARINS Shaping Facial Lift Serum

Size/Weight/Volume : 50ml

Price : RM310

CLARINS Shaping Facial Lift Serum is the revolutionary 'The Total V Contouring Power' with it's 3 powerful plant ingredients to slim down, visibly de-puff and lift facial contours. Guarana helps in slimming down the face to define cheekbones and reducing the appearance of double chin. Zerumber Ginger helps to de-puffs for a sharper facial features while Kaki helps to lift the skin for a sharper facial line and tighter skin. It is safe to say that by using this serum, your face will be lifted up, as if your skin is gently pulled upwards to maintain it's elasticity. I love it's mild florally scent and how it absorbs into my skin immediately after application. Remember to apply your products from your chin and pull upwards.

CLARINS V-Facial Intensive Wrap

Size/Weight/Volume : 75ml

Price : RM240

Our face can look puffy and swollen due to several reasons. The main reason is because of the excessive water flow that leaks from microcirculation due to the fragility of blood vessels can lead to the inability of the excess water to be absorbed or drained by the lymphatic system. As for me, lack of sleep and my sleeping habit is definitely worsen the entire situation. I can't help it but this is just the way it is. CLARINS V-Facial Intensive Wrap will de-puffs intensely and instantly through these amazing plant based ingredients!

Zerumbet Ginger & Escin from Horse Chestnut

Help reduce facial puffiness immediately

Beautyberry Extract *NEW

Reinforces the microcirculation to limit leakage

Lady's Mantle extract

Delivers an instant radiance boost

Kaolin

Matify the skin

You need to apply a thick layer on the lower part of your face and neck on a clean and dry skin. Leave it for 10 minutes. At the 7th minutes do these steps for better result :

1. Place the left elbow in the palm of right hand and place the chin in the palm of the hand.

2. Gently move head to the left. Relax the weight of the head for a few seconds and repeat 4 times

3. Repeat these steps on the right side of the face.

After you are done with all the steps, rinse of the mask with cool water. You can immediately feel your skin tightens and lifted up!

After

There was a slight changes of appearance but I can absolutely feel that my chin area is tighter than before. For better experience, keep the mask in the fridge for the cooling effect. It's a must, do it! :)

CLARINS Enhancing Eye Lift Serum

Size/Weight/Volume : 15ml

Price : RM250

Through the research done by CLARINS they identified 3 main characteristics of Asian eyes which are smaller eyes, darker eye contour and thinner eyelashes. To combat these 3 problems, this eye serum is is dedicated especially for Asian eyes to have bigger and more contoured eyes. For bigger and bolder eyes, Guarana extract helps to release excess fat while Zerumbet Ginger extract helps to de-puff the excess fluid. Kaki extract will immediately lift the eyelid to make the eyes bigger. For reducing dark circles, Escine from Horse Chestnut is used while Lady Mantle's illuminates the overall eye contour. For thicker lashes, Panthenol is included as it has Vitamin B5 to reinforce eyelashes.

I actually have been using this eye serum for 1 month and I do feel that my eyes are more hydrated. As far as the dark circles, I think I need to continue using it because there is not much of a difference. I would continue using this eye cream simply because of the hydration purpose. And also I would love to see whether this eye serum will lift up my eyelids.

For a total relaxation, you can experience CLARINS Total V Face Shaper Face Treatment at CLARINS boutiques! This 75 minutes treatment includes 25 minutes "Shaping Sculpt Massage" bu using the new V-Facial Intensive Wrap with the CLARINS Pro Refreshing Lift Mask.
