Can't believe it's my fourth Bag of Love already!

Here's the content of the September's bag:

Apply evenly onto cleansed face and neck. Can be used alone, under a moisturiser or make up.

This travel size is exclusively made in Hong Kong for Bag of Love.

Of all these products, my favorite items are O'slee Beauty Solution and CK Eternity Aqua Body Roller (in fact I haven't used others yet hahaha). The O'slee Beauty Solution makes my skin much smoother, and my skin feel so pampered after the application, I will definitely purchase a full bottle when I finished it. Besides that, CK Eternity Aqua Body Roller has very amazing scent, so in love with it.

Applause for Mimi for doing such a great job on Bag of Love!

Crooked

I'm so addicted to G-Dragon's 'Crooked'. I listen to the song everyday, while I drive or during gym. 

When I lose my motivation to run, I just keep listening to the song and keep imaging that G-Dragon is running in front of me just like the MV and he looks really depressed. 

I have to run as fast as possible to get to him hahahhaa. 

So embarrassed to actually tell this in public.

Click this link for the MV. Trust me, it totally worths your time.

My 3CE Shopping Hauls and Review! Part 2!

Hello! An nyeong! Remember I blogged about my 3CE shopping hauls? 

There are so many things to talk about, when comes to 3CE, and hence I've decided to divide them into three parts for a more specific and clearer overview of the products. 

Click here for my 3CE shopping haul Part 1 post.

For the previous post, I've given a brief introduction on 3CE by Stylenanda, and I've done a review on their shimmer stick, silky pore balm and not forgetting the most talk about lip pigment.

Today, I'll continue my review on honey water mist and skin finger sponge. 

Let me start with my skin finger sponge.

You might wonder what's that due to its unique design.

This photo will clearly explain what's that about:

I usually apply my foundation by using my fingers, I was mesmerized by the special finger design sponge and hence I have decided to give it a try. It's really soft and adorable. It helps me to apply the foundation evenly compared to using fingers. I love it, however it's too pricey for a sponge. I got the sponge for RM38, which is considered cheap compared to other sellers. It is definitely overpriced.  

I love the sponge, but it's too expensive for a sponge.

I'll continued with my Honey Water Mist review.

In fact, this product is not really that famous and well promoted compared to the others, 

however I was captivated by the word 'honey'.  I'm obsessed of honey, 

don't ask me why coz I've no freaking clue, hahaha maybe it's due to the scent? 

Anyway, I just can't wait to try the water mist once I received the product and I was curious about the scent and texture. I thought that it would smell like 'honey', but in fact it didn't. *slight disappointment* Even so, it still smells really good. Out of my surprise, the honey water mist works really effectively on my skin. My skin absorbs the water mist right after I sprayed it, I applied it every day followed by my makeup. It well hydrates my skin. 

**p/s: result might vary on different skin condition

Definitely recommended!!

Here's an important thing which I keep emphasized on. There are many knock off items on the market right now, please do not buy those sellers which are selling 3CE at much lower rate compared to the market price cause there's a high chance that it's a fake 3CE cosmetics. I bet that you wouldn't want to apply fake or replica cosmetics on your face right, so please make sure that you're getting the products from a reliable seller. I personally recommended @pawanna_shop (instagram shop) as they only sell genuine products and the seller is extremely friendly.

Alright, there goes the end of my post. Hope my reviews help!

The Skintopic First Aniversary @Pavilion

Hello readers! Last Thursday, I was honorably invited by The Butterfly Project to attend the SkinTopic, Pavilion for their first anniversary. 

I reached the SkinTopic's event quite early and carried my Nex-F3 to start capturing scenes and moments. However, brilliant me has forgotten to bring along the memory card, hence I ended up taking

photos using my iPhone, I sincerely apologize for the bad photo quality. 

*punching myself*

Pretty girls sitting on the registration table and waiting for guests. 

We're lucky to get the opportunity to witness the making of the amazing Linden Leaves aromatherapy synergy oil by the founder, Bridget Blair. 

Blair, the founder of Linder Leaves is extremely friendly and gorgeous. In fact, I was surprised as she's the one who approached me first. She patiently answered all our questions with a great wide smile on her face. She came to KL all the way from New Zealand to demonstrate us the making of Linden Leaves Aromatherapy Synergy Oil. 

One interesting fact about Linden Leaves Aromatherapy Synergy Oil is that they are all made with real fruits or flowers, such as Lavender, Strawberry, Roses, Wild Apples and etc.

These fruits or flowers are all freezed dried. Once they are infused in the oil, the fruits or flowers will be 'realive' and all the nutritions will mix with the organic rosehip and avocado oil blended with pure sweet almond and apricot kernel oils. These Synergy Oil is enriched with Vitamin E, which keeps the skin soft and nourished. There are four types of synergy oil: Memories, Absolute Dreams, Pick Me Up and In Love Again.

This is the workstation where Blair will be demonstrating the making of Linden Leaves Aromatheraphy Synergy Oil.

 Blair is guiding the participants on the making of aromatherapy synergy oil.

I wanted to try it out as well since it's once in a blue moon opportunity, however they're running out of bottles. Hahaha shouldn't have spend so much time hesitating.  

 Linden Leaves Collection:

 Here are some refreshments prepared by Teaffani Pattiserie. 

Selfie of Bendan aka KahMon with yours truly *wink*

She's really adorable and I do enjoy reading her blog all the time. 

It's really a great experience attending this event as I've got a chance to witness the making of the awesome synergy oil by the Linden Leaves founder. Besides that, I've got to meet many bloggers in 'real life', including Karen Oh, Laura Leia, Cindy Tong and etc. All of them are so lovely and friendly. 

Thanks the butterfly project again for the invitation and let me learn so much new things.

Let me end this post with me posing with the roses, photos credited to a sweet blogger, Laura Leia.

My 3CE Shopping Hauls and Review!

안녕하세요!
Hello readers! Sorry for the lack of blog updates due to I'm having an extremely hectic student life.

All those assignments and tutorial works are driving me crazy. It's so hard for me to handle all these university stuffs and I'm preparing the university application and documents for studying aboard in Australia for a year starting February.

Anyway, for those who always read my blog, or those who knows me personally, would have known that I'm a korean wannabe and I just love everything about Korea. Not sure if you've heard of Stylenanda before, so here's a brief introduction of Stylenanda. Stylenanda is an online leading fashion store in Korea, which sells trendy clothings, shoes, swimwear, accessories and cosmetics. They ship internationally and they have fans all around the world. 

All Stylenanda models look so pretty and each of them has a very distinct personally and attractive charm. I'm a big fans of Park Sora and she's on my phone wallpaper, she looks so perfect from every single angle *envy much*. 

After months of eyeing on their cosmetics line, naming 3 Concept Eyes (3CE), I've bought quite a few items them and I've decided to do a review for those you are interested to buy as a guideline (or at least a reference).

 The best selling products by 3CE would be their signature lip pigment. 

The most significant and well known 3CE lip pigment color would be 'electro pink' and I personally prefer 'mellow pink' more due to 'electro pink' is a bit too striking for me, but here's a very good part about 3CE, you can actually mix different lip pigment color to create your ideal lip color. If the color is too striking to you, you can add "modern white" to tone down the color.

Here's a very interesting fact about 3CE lip pigment. In case you're wondering what is the key drivers for the highly popularity of the lip pigment . These lip pigments are not used for lips only, it can be used as a blusher, or even an eyeshadow!

Pros: 

The lip pigment can also used as blusher, eye shadow and we can mix the color as we want and won't easily get fed up with the same color. It's easy to apply ♥

Cons:

It's a bit dry and doesn't really suit dry lips, try apply balm before using the lip pigment for better result.

The market price for this is RM60, however you can find them at lower or higher price, it should be less than 10% of price difference, do take note that there are non-genuine products available on market, hence be careful while purchasing them.

I've ordered my 3CE products from an instagram shop: @pawanna_shop.
Definitely recommend this shop as they only sell original and genuine products, and the shop owner is very friendly and patient enough to answer all my questions, not only that, they give free gifts too!
In case you're wondering, I've got my honey water mist, skin finger sponge, pore silky balm and shimmer stick (pink), and they're kind enough to give me an adorable Etude House make up sponge and a Innisfree face mask as a gift.

I've decided to divide my 3CE 'review' blog post into two parts so that I can give a detailed (and hopefully useful) review for those who're interested coz I personally think that there are not much reviews about these products yet.

Let me first start my review with 3CE's pore silky balm, the pawanna shop is selling it at RM60.

Pros:
It works efficiently on my pores (especially nose), my pores are less visible after applying it.

It creates a smooth base and it is not oily at all. It's hygienic too due to there's a plastic lid which separates the balm from the puff and spatula.

Cons:
I saw some people saying that this balm can be used as a primer, hence I've tried using it as a base without applying any primer. However, it doesn't work so well for me (as a primer) due to my skin is too dry.

Overall:

I am amazed by this product and I extremely love it! Definitely recommend it but the results may vary based on different people skin condition!

Rating:
♥♥♥♥♥

Next, I would like to continue my review with 3CE's shimmer stick in which @pawanna_shop is selling at RM70. It's available in two colors: pink and peach. I was in dilemma in choosing the color and the shop owner recommended me pink and in fact I love the color so much

 How to use:

Pros:

This shimmer sticks is very soft and easy to be applied, it looks very natural too.

Not only that, it stays on my skin for a long time. 

Cons:

It's slightly pricey thou. 

Overall:

Thumbs up for this product! Would definitely purchase again.

That's all for my 3CE products blog review part 1. For those who's interested to purchase 3CE products, do take note that there are many non-genuine products out there, hence be careful while purchasing them.

Bag of Love [July Edition]

Hello readers! 

Do you still remember that I've blogged about the April and May edition of Bag of Love? I've never thought that I will actually fall in love with any beauty box until I get the opportunity to try it out by myself. The feeling is superb, especially when the parcel has reached your house and you just can't wait to 'unbox' it since you have no freaking clue about the content of the bag.

Unboxing my July Edition Bag of Love!

And yes, these are all for RM39.90 only. Totally worth the price and I really love the July Edition Bag of Love. Bag of love has been improving from months to months and I just can't wait for the August Edition Bag of Love to launch.

That's all for today's post and I just can't wait to start my degree semester four by tomorrow.
Thank you for reading!
