Ianti Luxe Jewelry Facial Foam Cleanser

It's tough finding the right facial cleanser when your skin seems to be having a preference of its own. I have problem finding a right and suitable cleanser, thus I always end up changing cleanser everytime and it's been going on for years now!

Guess what! I've finally found the RIGHT CLEANSER FOR MY SKIN! haha.. okay okay, I should calm down, shouldn't I? I'm excited with this, because, not only it is right for my skin, the price is reasonable too. How did I came about it? Well, there's sale at Ianti right now (as mentioned here) and I was just scouring the products there for bargains. My colleagues and I noticed that there is a 50% discount for the facial wash, which means it will only cost me about RM11 for the facial wash (mind you, it's for 120ml). We thought to ourselves, what a bargain and proceeded to purchase it to test, and I was about to finish my facial wash anyway. So thus, we made the purchase and I ended up leaving it lying around for like a couple of weeks.

Two days ago, I started using it, and boy, am I happy with the results. Not only my skin was not having that pulling effect (due to the skin being too dry after a wash), it cleanses well too. The previous facial wash I was using, Bio Essence Tanaka White Facial Wash, left my skin feeling oily and sticky after a wash, and this is totally different! I can feel that it cleanses deep into my skin, and it still leaves me feel refresh and vibrant after the wash.

I think the best part is that I only need to squeeze very little and the foam does wonders. Trust me, I've used foam type facial wash which left my skin feeling dry and yucky, but this doesn't. I'm so happy with the result!! Oh, my colleague who bought it gave me the same comment too, she loves it! We are planning to do some stocking of this product since Ianti will be giving the 50% discount for it again next week (2 Aug - 8 Aug)! I'm so excited... can't wait for it.

By the way, I bought it's Milk Mask too! Shall share the review on it another day, but it's definitely a positive review!)

ianti having sale now!!!


Oh my gosh!!! Ianti is having a major sale right now. Alright, I know I'm getting way wayyyy excited about it. But seriously, it's MAJOR. I've been working here for almost one year now, and I've not seen it on sale before. And when I say it's MAJOR, I'm talking about products for up till 70% discount. And things are probably costing less than RM10.

For those who have not used ianti before, I seriously would urge you to check it out. I mean, it IS one of those Korean brand shops, but I do think that some of them (think skinfood) are getting a little over priced for their products. This ones are still okay, and they carry different range of products under their shop.

I particularly like their ianti branded products, and they are REALLY NICE. Shall update you about the products later.

Seriously, the sale is until 8th August 09, so if you do have time, do drop by their shops and check it out. I am talking about facial wash at 50% discount sitting at RM10, masks at less than RM10 and a lot more. Psst Psst, everything else that is there less 20% discount ok! So don't miss this! Really!!

New Contact Lens iZone


Bought this new monthly contact lens for RM84 for 2 boxes. Why so cheap? Because Vision Plus is having a promotion and thus the offer.

And now, I kinda regret it =( Why? I tried my first pair 2 weeks ago, and boy, it pricks me eyes! I totally do not feel comfortable with it. I am not sure if it's cause of the different solution that I was using, cause when I used it with B & L solution, it was alright for that day. But after that, when I used the other solution, the uncomfortable feeling came again!

What's more, it caused me to had to leave work early because I was having a very bad headache after that. Sigh, I have like 5 more pairs to go. Am already thinking of using them for 2 weeks and throw! Aiyoo... anyway, shall try me 2nd pair at a much later time, cause I had to buy a different box (Acuvue) instead to change on the day my head was feeling bad... man.... sigh.. 5 more pairs!! ARGHHHH

Thank You DIGI for Freebiessssssssss

Thank you DIGI!!! It's great to receive rewards when you least expect it, what's more, it's goodies that one does use!!! I got two freebies from Digi, all redeemed one day after another.... who can complain more?

First one: Biotherm's Aquatrio Program



I received an sms on Wednesday informing me I can get a 5-day samples from Biotherm. Since I work in a shopping mall, I dropped by Metrojaya to collect it. Five days of Biotherm Aquatrio Program. I'll probably use it when I go travelling, does come in handy cause I won't need to carry all my facial wash bottles and all. I got this sample before, when I went with a friend who wants to try Biotherm. The lady gave this to me as a sample, I guess in hopes that after trying it, I will also want to buy it. Anyway, will share how the goodies work when I use it, since I am travelling soon =) Yippee!!
Second is Ciba Vision Dailies: One Day Contact Lenses



I was really excited when I saw this! Why? Cause my contact lens is about to expire (due for a change) and I have yet to purchase a new monthly contact lens. So, on Thursday when I got an sms from DIGI again, I told my colleague, let's go and get it! Incidentally, my colleague also uses DIGI and she got the same sms!! Ain't it cool??!! So, off we went, to Optical 88 to get our 5-day daily contact lens. I havent used it yet, and I've already bought my monthly disposable (that's another story to tell), so most probably will also only use this when I go travel. Easy ma, just use for one day and then throw!

So, it's good. Thank you once again to DIGI for all the freebies. And I am looking forward for more from DIGI too! hahah...

B-liv by Cellnique ~ Off with those heads!


The name itself literally screams the inner voice in my heart!

Seriously, the "off with those heads" are such eye catchers!

In a way, it does reminds me of those fancy names by Benefit, cute and really really heart catching.

Okay, back to the review part. I've always had a problem with blackheads and whiteheads (hm.. do wonder who don't!) and it's such a nuisance trying to rid of them, because it does involves a lot of painful pressing and pinching! Anyway, I was googling for a solution and I came across this! Having read some reviews and read some forums about it, I decided to give it a try.

Incidentally, when I was wanting to purchase it, there was a promotion by Guardian, you get two at a 20% discount. Well now, this small little bottle ain't cheap ok! It costs like RM139 for a 30ml. Anyhow, with the discount, I managed to persuade my colleague to buy for as well (since it's two and it's too costly for me to buy two!). When the opened up the box, we were quite stunned at its size (yea, we do know it's only 30ml, but to see it literally can be quite shocking, since we paid quite a lot for it, ya know what I mean?).


Anyhow, we've purchased it, and thus the experiment begins. It states in the box that the area which you applied it will feel oily in the beginning, and really it does! I can feel the oiliness and literally see the glint when I look in the mirror. Gosh, you don't even need glitter powder to see the T zone area glinting back at you. Anyway, after a few days of putting it day and night onto my T zone area, especially the nose, I decided that it's time to do the stick and remove process! Anyway, I got my pore pack from Softymo (it's better than Biore, seriously!) and stuck it to my nose. It's peeling time half an hour later. Lo and behold, the amount of whiteheads and blackheads that is removed is soo much more than usual! It literally works man. I can see that my nose is MUCH MUCH cleaner ok.

During a sharing session with my colleague, she states that she tried it and after a few days, her attempt to use her fingers to press her pores was successful and painless! It literally just came out.

Short to say the least, both of us are happy with this small little expensive bottle and we came to the conclusion that it's a good buy. I'm already thinking of getting a bottle for my boyfriend, but probably later, since it is rather expensive.

By the way, there is a promotion at Sasa at the moment, whereby you can get the pro sebum gel and the moisturizer at RM200, along with some of the rest of its products in sample size. Quite a good buy, if you have the cash that is =)

Detox 5th & Tada! Da Last Day

It has come to an end for Kinohimitsu's 6-Day Detox Juice's review from me. To say the least, I will say goodbye to it for now... okay... enough of the melodrama...

I know I've written a "dissatisfied" comment on it two days ago. And I am surprised that the Juice did gave me a surprise!

From yesterday and today, I realised that instead of waiting for 2 to 4 hours later after my meal that I had to go to the toilet, but instead, I felt the need to go within half an hour or so. And boy, did my stomach clear itself!

Seriously, it's a GOOD feeling! Haha.... I guess what happened was that there wasn't a lot to clear? Or maybe I did not drink enough water to help flush my system (just guesses, not sure if drinking water makes a lot of difference anyway).

Well, I guess taking the detox juice does help. But seriously, I doubt I can do it like very often since it is rather costly. Probably from nowon, what I need to do is to eat more oats and drink more water (it does help to clean up your body).

More reviews to come on other items! Hope you all will look forward to it =)

Detox Day 4


Sadly, the desire to go to the toilet has decreased. What's more, even if I go, it feels as though the normal type of trip once again. The feeling of dissatisfaction after going (you know what I mean right) is back! I feel like screaming ARGHHH.... cause I seriously dislike the feeling of it.

Is this the end of Kinohimitsu for me? I seriously don't know. I'm left with 2 more bottles. Am I giving justice if I were to give a verdict of it's ability (or disability) to help me detox? Hm... I guess, I shall be nice and give a verdict only after I finished all the 6 bottles. Aih, I also am unsure what I should write for now.

In the meanwhile, I guess what I can do is finish all 6 bottles and probably start scouting for alternatives. What an expensive experiment this is....

Changing Website Layout

I'm still trying to figure out things on this website! Haha, so forgive me if you find that things keep changing... it's definitely crazy trying to figure how and where to put certain things. What's more, I feel like I want sooo many things on the site... and then there's the dilemma of it being overcrowded.

Girls can be quite fickle sometimes, and what to say, I am a girl at that and I am feeling very fickle in terms of how I want this website to be! Let's hope I can get this website well settled down soon and then I'll probably start fiddling and writing about other things besides how the changes of the blog is going to be!

Detox 3rd Day

Okay, it's the third day... and the verdict is... wellll... I don't really go to the toilet like every few hours or whatsoever, but I do go like once a day. And things are getting DARKER! Haha.. seriously, I don't know whether it is working or not, but I do know that the feeling of wanting to go but unable to is not there anymore. It's more like the urge is seriously there and when I do go, it's okay.

Oh, I did manage to go on the 2nd day btw. Not too great a feeling, but at least you feel slightly better, you know what I mean.

3 more bottles. Let's see, like, seriously, how efficient it will be!

Kinohimitsu Cranberry D'Tox Juice (2nd bottle)

Result from 1st bottle... zilch. I didn't go to toilet at all, well, except for the slight feeling of wanting to go. Went to bed at 12 plus not feeling anything, so, go figure.

Anyhow, since it's a 6-day detox programme, maybe it's not effective yet? I took my 2nd bottle this morning after breakfast. And I did go to the loo! But it's not like it's a lot or anything. I just need to go! And the feeling that there is still more to come is there too. Hm, oh well.. let's hope later I get to go again.

Let's see if anything changes later this evening =) Will update again

Kinohimitsu Cranberry D'tox Juice

,Ever feel like going to the loo but yet nothing came out? Ever felt restless because of it? Well, I've been feeling it for the past few weeks! What a horrible feeling it was.

Well, I've been seeing this Kinohimitsu brand for quite a while and I've actually used their health pads before (that's for a different time), so it really does piques my curiosity as to how effective their 6-Day D'Tox Juice would work. After surveying the price (thank God for MEGA SALES NOW), I finally bought the Kinohimitsu J'pan D'Tox Juice 6-Day Program (Cranberry flavour) for RM65.40 at Sasa (UP at RM69.90).


The one I bought has a different packaging than the normal ones. Apparently, the sales lady informed me that this packaging was done up for Mother's Day and Father's Day purpose, and because they still have stock, so they are selling it at a slightly cheaper price. I think the UP for the normal packaging was at RM70 plus (don't exactly remember).


A total of 6 bottles. Definitely quite pricey, but hey, if it works, the price ought to be worth it I guess. Below are some of the stuff written at the back of the box:

Natural, Safe:
  • Natural concentrated extracted fruit juices
  • No additives, no preservatives
Effective:
  • Fast results within 2-4 hours, after intake
  • Promote bowel movements, without strenuous effort

Convenient:

  • An instant, functional drink ready for immediate consumption, for your enjoyment anytime, anywhere
  • A 6-Day Program that is ideal for those with busy, stressful lifestyle
  • No special control diet is needed

Gentle:

  • No discomfort, unpleasant experiences such as extreme fatigue, headache, bad breathe or allergy reaction

Do you have:

  • Busy, stressful life
  • Ireegular meals and eating processed food
  • Constant exposure to unhealthy environment, air, water pollution
  • In just 6 Days, Kinohimistu J'pan D'Tox leaves you feeling renew, refresh and revitalize!

Usage:
Shake well before drinking. 1 bottle each time, preferably after food. Taste excellent when chilled. 1-3 bottles per week, or as needed.

First time Users:
1 bottle a day, consecutively for 6 days.
Suggestion: best to have it 2-4 hours before planning for defecation.


Well now, I've taken one bottle earlier today, at about 7plus pm. Waiting for things to happen I guess right now. There is a slight feeling of wanting to go to the toilet, but I guess will probably need to wait a bit longer.

Shall continue to update (everyday of the results if possible).

In the meanwhile, do check it out at the nearest pharmacy or Sasa near you if interested =)

New Blog

I used blogpost like, ages ago! And I decided to start blogging here again, for a different purpose.

You see, I like to go online to search for reviews on products and such, and sometimes I find that it's tough getting reviews for some of the stuff that I want to buy or even for stuff that I ended up buying and using!

So I'll probably be using this blog as a place where I can share about the things that I have purchased and used, as well as, hopefully, get feedback from others too!!
