[Review] Mary Kay Gel Semi-Matte Lipstick & Mary Kay Asia Pacific 2016 Dream Beautiful Contest

说起美容品牌,我相信大家都对Mary Kay ( 玫琳凱)很熟悉吧,毕竟它已经有超过五十年的历史了。我从小就看着我的长辈们使用Mary Kay 品牌,所以我对Mary Kay 有着一股亲切感。当我知道Mary Kay  推介了最新的凝胶半哑色唇膏时,我第一时间就抢先使用了。
Mary Kay 最新的凝胶半哑色唇膏使用了最新的科技- "Cushion Matrix Technology",很容易涂抹和控制,就好像整个嘴唇被浓厚的颜色所包围那样,颜色鲜艳且持久。Mary Kay 凝胶半哑色唇膏含有日葵籽油、荷荷芭酯類及芒果籽脂等植物保濕精華,让嘴唇漂亮之余还有滋润嘴唇的功能Mary Kay  凝胶半哑色唇膏有八种颜色(Bashful You, Rich Truffle, Mauve Moment, Powerful Pink, Always Apricot, Poppy Please, Crushed Berry and Midnight Red),从干净的裸色,甜美的粉红色到艳丽的红色任君选择。

其实众所周知我的嘴唇是很干的,再加上前阵子我生病了,嘴唇可是又干又裂!但是我还是被Mary Kay 凝胶半哑色唇膏的颜色深深地吸引,并每天使用它。虽说哑色唇膏通常比较干,但是Mary Kay 凝胶半哑色唇膏却很滋润,还填饱我嘴唇的细纹,让我的嘴唇看起来美美的,嫩嫩的。
不但如此,它的颜色还很持久,吃完一餐后嘴巴还是漂亮的。

Sakae Sushi Celebrates 19th Delightful Years

Our family’s beloved Japanese restaurant, Sakae Sushi is celebrating their 19th anniversary this year! Congratulations on the 19th delightful years celebration, Sakae Sushi. We had celebrated this important milestone with Sakae Sushi’s iconic friendly green frog at Sakae Sushi One Utama not long ago.

However one thing always remains the same – the brand’s passion in serving tasty, healthy and value-for-money Japanese cuisine in a fun and friendly environment. As a global chain restaurant, Sakae Sushi undertakes several effective measures to maintain food quality standards. Some of the efforts include making frequent farm visits to ensure the safety and traceability of food sources. In addition, Sakae Sushi’s food is sent for laboratory checks on a regular basis to retain the highest food safety and quality standards. All these stringent implementations go a long way in ensuring utmost quality and freshness for every dish we serve. 
Apart from safety and hygiene, Sakae Sushi emphasises greatly upon the nutrition value of food served. “It is our utmost belief that good food should not only pamper palates, but also nourish the body and soul. As such, our sushi rice is enriched with Vitamin E, an essential nutrient that promotes healthier skin and enhances the immune system.” shares Jessica Tan, Assistant Marketing Manager of Sakae Sushi.

Dior Capture Totale — Dreamskin Perfect Skin Cushion SPF50 - PA+++ Provides Skincare Pleasure and Perfection at Your fingertips, All Day Long.

Dior is undoubtedly one of the most fascinating beauty brands in the World. We were honored and excited to be invited to Dior store @ Sunway Pyramid to discover the latest invention of Dior: Capture Totale — Dreamskin Perfect Skin Cushion SPF50 - PA+++ on last Tuesday morning.
Dreamskin Perfect Skin Cushion SPF50 - PA+++ and Dreamskin were displayed right at the entrance of Dior boutique. We were attracted by its dreamy pink packaging at the very first sight. Before we played with the wonderful products, we adjourned to take our seat and listen to Lavynia Tam, Dior’s MUA for more details on the products.
Well you might think that Dior is launching another BB cushion, let me tell you that it’s incorrect; it’s not just your conventional BB Cushion. Why? Read on to find it out.
When it comes to beauty, perfection means a flawless complexion, a natural glow, skin that naturally exudes health and youth.
In 2014, Dior provided an initial answer of perfection with Dreamskin, the age-defying global perfect skin creator whose universal texture refines skin texture, diminishes spots and redness and smooths, unifies and firms the skin. Yet we women want natural-looking beauty, any time, any place and on any occasion. We also demand lightweight, long-lasting textures that protect and hydrate. The time had clearly come for Dior to push back the limits of perfection once again.
Hence, Dior presents a global first: Dreamskin Perfect Skin Cushion SPF50 PA+++, the first youth skincare perfect complexion creator in this year. Dreamskin Perfect Skin Cushion SPF50 PA+++ has a formula concentrated in expertise thanks to its unique patented “Air Cushion” technology, its ultra-fluid and super-moisturizing texture for a transparently unified complexion, and its high protection for a natural finish that fuses perfectly with the skin.

This time round, Uniqlo has partnered with LEGO to organize the fun activities for the kids on the Uniqlo x LEGO kids event. Once we arrived at the event venue, the kids were given a seat to sit and wait for their bricks. There were 3 models to be select: Crinkler, Crazy Ride and Hockey.
The Uniqlo Malaysia team welcomed us with a welcome speech.
Water and snacks were also provided to the kids, thanks for the warm hospitality!

[Review] LANEIGE BB Cushion_PoreControl

Living in a tropical country, with extremely hot and humid weather recently, I always struggle with my daily makeup. I am having oily combination skins for years and that has made my pores become super big and ugly. Though I could camouflage them with concealer and foundation but I don’t like to put on heavy makeup during normal day.
I received a LANEIGE BB Cushion_PoreControl during the launch of the new LANEIGE BB Cushion months ago. I am gratitude that LANEIGE has produced such an amazing product that could finally save our (oily skin people) life!
The new LANEIGE BB Cushion_PoreControl has been upgraded with technology to give us a whole day effect with just one application. Look at the newly opened LANEIGE BB Cushion_PoreControl, do you notice the moisture and watery texture here?

It’s easy to apply using the polyurethane puff applicator that was provided in the case. First, apply all over the face and then gently dab on the Plus Zone, which is the intersection of the vertical line from the forehead to the chin and the horizontal line across the cheekbones in order to better blend the BB into the skin.

The New Laneige’s 2016 BB Cushion

Attention all Laneige’s fans, Laneige has launched the new Laneige’s 2016 BB Cushion in Mid July 2016 in Malaysia. The launch event was held at Ruyi & Lyn, Bangsar Shopping Centre where the invited media and guests were all dressed in futuristic theme before channel into a BB Cushion Evolution Time Tunnel at the entrance of the event.
 
The Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion was the first cushion-type BB product that AmorePacific exported globally in year 2012. This first generation BB Cushion was designed using the air pump technology. The air pump in the cushion contains air bubbles that functions to disperse a thin layer of BB liquid onto the skin with just a light pat. The puff is designed to absorb less moisture than any ordinary puff so that the face stays refreshed. Upon application, it gives the skin a refreshing, soothing and cooling sensation.
The Laneige Snow BB Soothing Cushion offers 5-in-1 benefits.  Then, in March 2014, Laneige changes the name of its cushion-type BB product from Snow BB Soothing Cushion to BB Cushion Whitening. The 2014 BB Cushion Whitening SPF50+ PA+++ feature 6-in-1 functions which include Brightening + UV Protection + Makeup Tint + Water-resistant + Soothing Effect + Moisturising Effect. It also protects the skin from darkening, thereby improving its whitening function. One of the key ingredients include MelaCrusherTM, Laneige’s patented bio-brightening technology that functions to deploy our skin’s natural melanin to destroy excessive melanin in the skin through the stimulation of our natural autophagy biological process. In 2015, Laneige launched its 6-in-1 anti-aging multi-function BB Cushion that complements its anti-aging skincare line Time Freeze.
And this year, Laneige has launched the new Laneige’s 2016 BB Cushions - Whitening and Pore Care BB Cushion underwent a facelift and reformulation.
Ms. Foong Winnie, Brand General Manager for Laneige Malaysia has addressed her welcome note to all of us.
Then, there was a very interesting product presentation and model showcase while Ms. Camiellia Choo, Beauty Trainer of Laneige Malaysia explained to us the new Laneige’s Whitening and Pore Care BB Cushion.

[Review] Tommee Tippee PESU bottle

What is the baby feeding brand that you choose for your children? As a UK’s graduate, I have been using tommee tippee® since my first princess was borned. Why tommee tippee®? You might ask. Well, I do a lot of study before I buy.
Apparently tommee tippee® is the number-one brand for baby feeding accessories in the UK and one of the top brands of infant products and accessories in the global market. tommee tippee® remains one of the most trusted and recognisable baby brands in the world, loved by babies and recommended by generations of parents.
tommee tippee® offers a range of award-winning baby feeding, soothing and hygiene products. Another reason I chosen it was because of its rounded shaped teat, the original Breast-like teat that mimic a mother’s nipple when in the baby’s mouth.
Many people worried about the safety of baby bottles made with bisphenol A (BPA), a chemical used to make hardened plastic. And, the FDA has banned the use of BPA in 2012 from baby bottles and sippy cups.
Now, do you know there’s another BPA free material called PESU? I have tried the tommee tippee® PESU bottle for my younger girl recently. From my research, PESU is an advance grade of thermoplastic polymers known for their toughness and stability in high temperature, and can withstand a maximum temperature of 180°C (Normal PP bottles can withstand up till 110°C).
