SEPHORA BEAUTE BOX : ALGENIST SERIES :)

Hi!!

It's time for me to tell you about this awesome series. I believe that when it comes to facial products, results can only take place in 3-4 weeks...well that's just my opinion.  Like I have mentioned previously on my posts...my skin is very picky, so I am quite careful when I try on new products.

So I have been given the Algenist with Alguronic Acid :-

1) Regenerative Anti-Aging Moisturiser

2) Concentrated Reconstructive Serum

3) Complete Eye Renewal Balm

I have been using this just over 3 weeks and I love it. My skin feels like its always moisturised. After putting on make-up, I noticed that my face is not as oily. Normally I would have to blot it, but now, it's much better. It also makes my skin supple and soft.

The texture is so smooth like silk, especially the Eye Renewal Balm and the fact that it's quite light make them ACE in my books! And I'm talking about all 3 of the above.

The Eye Renewal Balm is my favourite! I have been quite consistent with the products (normally i would skip my beauty regime...really!) because I am that serious in wanting to give you good news about the products.

Having good skin is important and finding the right product is crucial. I am very happy with the results right now. It 's a good thing I have a small face, so this can last me a while! hahahaha :)

Luv, me.

Sephora Beaute Box - All-In-One Nourishing Oil...top to toe beautifier :)

OK! Let's re-visit the benefit of oil for our skin :

Let's see...

- it helps boost radiance
- minimise wrinkles and fine lines
- improve shine for hair
- help the skin and hair retain moisture and stay hydrated all day
- and so much more!!

Overall, I have very dry skin, the kind that needs the help of a Dermatologist. I have eczema (thank goodness its not the serious kind). Nothing from off the shelves products in the pharmacy actually do anything for my dry skin.

But, i just wanna tell you about this All-In-One Nourishing Oil.. head to toe beautifier... 

I have been using it for 2 weeks now. I apply it after shower and yes, I love the smell! Even if it doesn't really do much for my skin, but i find it very useful when i'm out and about and couldn't get back in time to freshen up, this baby actually does the trick! I just spray it all over my arms and legs, and BOOMZ! it gives my an awesome glow!

This two-stage oil conquers all cosmetic feats thanks to a combination of two ultra-nourishing oils,

Baobab oil and Jojoba oil: it nourishes, smoothes, moisturizes and beautifies the skin. This do-it-all product can also be used for your hair and face too!

This oil only cost RM49, affordable if you ask me. Perfect for girls who are always on the "GO". You don't have to carry so many different kinds of products in your bag anymore. This baby is all you need, top to toe beautifier. SWEET!

Try it and let me know what you think :)

luv, me. 

Sephora Beaute Box - Sephora Supreme Cleansing Oil ( My Fav!)

About 8 days ago, I received my first ever Beaute Box from Sephora. I was so excited when I got them I actually behaved like a little kid in a candy store! My family was weirded out by my reaction! hahahaha...

So for the past 8 days, I have been using 2 types of oils. One is called the Sephora All-In-One Nourishing Oil and the other is the Sephora Supreme Cleansing Oil.

There are some peole who say that oil is not good for them. It clogs up your pores and make your skin become more oily. Well, it's also important for you to understand and know your skin first before trying it on. Actually, its important to know your body before trying anything! Coming back to the skin, me, I have combination skin.

Let's see, here are some benefits of oil  and what it does:

- it helps boost radiance
- minimise wrinkles and fine lines
- improve shine for hair
- help the skin and hair retain moisture and stay hydrated all day
- and so much more!!

And now, let's start with this new found favourite of mine, it is the Sephora Supreme Cleansing Oil.

There are many cleansing oils out there, yes I agree, but some are quite expensive. This one only cost RM45 and it can last you up to 3-4 months depending on the amount you use. It's very easy to use, just pump once on dry clean hands, rub it all over face that has make -up on. And then when you wet your hands and rub it against your skin again, the consistency of the oil will change into lotion. You don't need cotton pads for this. Keep massaging your face, after that wash it off like normal. It's gentle and effective, it removes make up quickly and it's even good for sensitive skin! Even water-proof make-up won't stand a chance! The best part is, it's non-greasy and it leaves your skin supple and soft after.

I wanna share with you my experience of not following instructions, I had to learn the hard way. There was once I had taken 3 pumps instead of 1 (as it was written on the bottle), but hear me out first.....the reason I took 3 pumps was because I had a photoshoot and the make up on my face was thicker than usual, so i thought the more make-up, the more oil I would need...NO! It doesnt work that way. Because I had taken too much, when I added water after that, I was having trouble removing the cleanser! My face was white and the stuff wont come off! I panicked of course, so I had to use a tissue to remove it! U can keep washing it but it will just take longer...so the moral of the story is, FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS! :P

Now, I follow instructions hehehehe...I guess you just need to be smart with the amount, but from experience, 1 pump is actually enough to remove the make-up.

So there!! You can try it out yourself. The fact that it can last a while, it's good for my pocket! :p

Next entry, I will share about the Sephora All-In-One Nourishing Oil...stay tuned to this page! :)


love, me.

WORKOUT = RESULTS

im a strong believer of working out to get in shape. i believe that one should sweat it out to remove all the toxin in the body and produce more endorphins to make you and your body feel good.

capoeira camara malaysia

   
                                                                   brazilian jiujitsu

i have been active since the day i can remember. i was a given the title "sportswoman of the year" for 2 consecutive years when i was in school. my life has always been associated with fitness. it runs in the family. my family would spend our free time to look for waterfalls, play badminton and tennis, trekking, play basketball and etc. anything that will make us sweat. thats how we are and that's also how we bond.

                                         1 of the exercises done in capoeira to build strength

                                                              its the human wheel

recently i was given a bottle of slimming pill to be tested out, and honestly i did not see any difference on me. maybe its because im so used to seeing me the way i am and i consider myself quite slim. so seriously, i look the same to me. it probably will work differently on another person with different lifestyle....maybe. but for me, i already live in a healthy an active lifestyle so taking pills to keep me slim is something that is not in my books.

i want to say that there is no shortcuts to slimming/losing weight/get in shape. it all takes hard work. i don't believe in all these products that supposedly will help you lose weight without even  sweating it out. if someone looks slim without working out, you should ask if they are eating right or are they dieting? or they are just blessed with awesome bodies :). there are so many levels of dieting, you just need to know that whatever you do is not detrimental to your body and health. just make sure you dont skip your meals! knowing your BMI is also important to lead a healthy life.

                                                playing instruments is part of capoeira

but of course there are so many other ways to keep yourself healthy and fit. find something that you really like doing. do it with a bunch of friends because its more fun!

so i hope you will adopt a healthy lifestyle and get your body to sweat. if you want do capoeira like me, you can come to CABOCO STUDIO, 16-1 BLOCK B, ZENITH CORPORATE PARK, NO.1 JALAN SS7/26 KELANA JAYA (behind Paradigm Mall). for more info you can call 016 9711765

 and of course, dont forget to drink loads of water!

himalaya - ayurslim capsules

so i finally started on this himalaya ayurslim capsules. if you've read my last entry, you would know what this capsules do...ok la, it's a slimming pill. :P

I started last monday which was 6 days ago. the first day i took the pills, 2 in the morning and 2 at night, i did a frequent visit to the little girls room....3 times to be exact! So if you're going to try this out, make sure the first day is the day you are at home so you can have easy access to the toilet (but symptoms can be different).

it almost like it detoxified me for the first day but on the second day i was back to normal. I did feel a little difference like i had no craving for food as much. if its not lunch or dinner, i didn't feel like eating AND i get full quicker. it's great isn't it?!

but, this whole week, i have been taking the pill without working out and im seeing the difference in my eating habits... so starting tomorrow (1/4/2013) i will take the pills and workout at the same time and see what kind of results i'm going to get.

i must say, so far im liking this capsules...even though i find it really hard for me to swallow it! ( i have phobia for pills). my mission is to finish 1 bottle and try to get rid of my "love-handles" hehehehe...

luv, me.

MORE HIMALAYA!!

I'm such a sucker for beauty products. Every time i see something new, i would get excited and will try and see if it suits me. Of course, price plays a big role in what i buy too.

Himalaya products are quite awesome because they're herbal made and they're very affordable. My favourite is this one!

It does give you that fresh feeling and most importantly, it doesn't give you that "dry" and "tight" feeling after washing your face with it.

Im excited to try out this other new product. I love body lotions and since i have very dry skin, it's so difficult to find something that's not too thick in texture. I'm not a fan of that "oily and sticky' feeling, so  this body lotion is great because it doesn't give you that. It has that "homey" smell, the kind that takes you back to the time when life was so much simpler...you'd feel so comfortable especially when you go to sleep!

Let's give this one a try and see the wonders of it :)

luv, me.

Be Slim with Himalaya AyurSlim

Hey you guys!! How have you been?? Hope all is well with you! Guess what! Last week, i was called to check out Himalaya's latest product, the "AYURSLIM". As many of may you know, i am an active person and looking after my body is something very close to me, although sometimes i do get naughty and lazy to workout and such! hehehehe..

So this new product "AYURSLIM" is not like your any other sliming pills. Because its herbal made, the process  obviously will take slightly longer. Be reminded that when you take any form of slimming pill, you must include your exercise and workout schedule in it. C'mon, you cant lose it without putting any work to it....right?

Same goes with Himalaya's "AYURSLIM", when you start taking the pill, you need to compliment it with some exercise and drinking loadsa water is required too!

What it does is : - 
1) Limits fat production
- burns up fat cells and stops fat formation

2) Reduces craving for sugar ( that's helpful because its so difficult to cut down on sugar! )

3) Reduces excess cholesterol

4) It detoxifies body and has bowel cleansing action ( so if you have trouble going to the toilet, this certainly will do the trick!)

5) Blocks absorption of sugar

This pill has no reported side effects and its the safest way for you to get your ideal weight. But please remember to consult your doctor first before taking any form of pills!!

So, I am gonna give this a go and will get back to you in a couple of weeks!

luv, me.
