Beauty Haul | December

For December, I've done my shopping much earlier and I admit some of these items arrived at late November but I couldn't take picture of them so I can't include them in my last haul. This month's haul is probably an aftermath of my previous hauls. You'll get what I mean when you read the rest of this post for sure.

So without further ado, I'll start with Laneige Malaysia.

      

There's no more suitable time to get a product that can help with my tired skin especially after the past few weeks of craziness plus I'm using makeup like everyday now so after deep consideration, I got myself the products from Brightening Sparkling Water line that I've been wanting to try since its launching in Malaysia. I got that Pop Essence, Peeling Mask, and Whipping Foam. Also comes with the set are White Plus Renew Skin Refiner and Emulsion (15ml) kit-sized and Multiberry Yogurt Peeling Gel (10ml). Yes, this is indeed the Sparkling Water Essentials set and retailed at RM150 with the Whipping Foam retailed at RM85 separately. I wanted to grab the Capsule Mist but apparently it has sold out at my regular counters. 

If you're following my Instagram, you probably already know that I got that Glitzy BB Cushion Whitening Set. But of course, as the set only comes with BB Cushion (Whitening) No. 21 Natural Beige, I was lucky as my roommate wanted a BB Cushion for herself so I just swapped with her to get No. 23 Sand Beige. Included with the set are Brush Pact No. 1 Natural Finishing, Lip Palette - 4 x 0.5g Serum Intense Lipstick, Lip & Eye Remover 25ml, and White Plus Renew Original Essence deluxe sample of 10ml. 

As I finished my deluxe samples for this, I decided to get that Sparkling Party Water Sleeping Pack Limited Edition. The tub is the same as the regular version though. Needless to say, this is a HG product especially among Laneige fans and this definitely can help me in stretching my skincare usage period i.e. I usually use one set of skincare within 3 months but with additional routine of sleeping pack like my HG Firming Sleeping Pack, White Plus Renew Capsule Sleeping Pack and now this one, I can stretch my skincare items to about 5 months. You guys know that Laneige products ain't cheap!  

Anyway, let's move on to Etude House Malaysia! 

Temporary Hiatus

Lovelies, anyeong!

Oh, by the way, a friend of mine is doing a small business, selling Korean beauty samples and full-sized products. Definitely lower prices than local Korean beauty stores here in Malaysia. ALL PRODUCTS ARE ORIGINAL AND ORIGINATED FROM BOTH MALAYSIAN LOCAL STORES AND SOUTH KOREAN STORES.

Annyeong, lovely people!! How's your December so far? few more weeks before the year ends and I'm definitely feeling nervous with all the upcoming final exams and whatnot... 

Shout out to Laneige fans and users out there! Today, as part of running away from studying and doing revision, taking a break from all the craziness that's going on right now, I wanna share with you guys about one of Laneige Malaysia on-going Facebook Apps right now, which is the Fortnightly Thoughts Sharing app.

Beauty Talk | Sheet Masks

This is gonna be a quick post as I saw this question, one of the few that my readers typed into Google and found my posts (I got this by checking under my Keywords tab in my Nuffnang account).

Q: How many times do I use mask sheets in a week?

My answer would be, it depends on the type of mask sheet that you prefer. I usually use the typical Korean mask sheets from Etude House, Nature Republic, and Skinfood like 2 to 3 times a week as I also love using wash-off masks aside from those. These mask sheets usually offering simple yet important treatments like brightening, moisturizing, purifying, anti-aging, nourishing, etc. 

Range of price is between RM5 to RM12.

Beauty Haul | November

For this month, it is more like a collective haul as I didn't buy all these items at the same time and some of them actually bought in October but were sent to me in November. So, without further ado, let's go to Laneige Malaysia! 

I know that I'm so late when it comes to above items as the LANEIGE X pushButton collection was launched early August but I've managed to get that LeoPuppy Serum Intense Lipstick in Dressy Coral only after 3 months! I bet some of you are wondering how in the world I got myself that pretty It Clutch as in order to get it, I have to spend RM200 above on any items solely from the collection. Actually it was given to me by an acquaintance who bought the LeoPuppy BB Cushion (Whitening) as we combine our purchases. Awesome! 

Next, let's go to TheFaceShop Malaysia. 

   

Finally, I got the chance to purchase the rest of the products from my favourite cleansing line which is the Rice Water Bright. I got the (left) Lip and Eye (Makeup) Remover, Light Cleansing Oil, Cleansing Milk, and Cleansing Water. I also repurchased the Cleansing Foam and Rice Bran Cleansing Foam. I honestly can't wait to try them! 

Review: Nature Republic Garden Recipe Kohlrabi Cleansing Foam

Annyeong, lovelies! wah~ few more weeks before final exams going to start and I'm so nervous with all the things going on recently.. hmm~

Today is gonna be a simple review on this product, Garden Recipe Kohlrabi Cleansing Foam from Nature Republic. I reviewed its sister product here so if you like strawberry-based product, make sure to check it out!

Honestly, I never heard of Kohlrabi before.... have you?

Review: Nature Republic Garden Recipe Strawberry Cleansing Foam

Annyeong, lovelies! How's your week so far? As we're getting near and near to the end of semester, we got a lot of assignments to be submitted and whatnot.. sigh

Hence, today it's gonna be a simple review on this facial cleanser that I've been using for about 2 months now, which is Garden Recipe Strawberry Cleansing Foam from Nature Republic. 

#StrawberryChronicle 

the hashtag is just one of the thing I called whenever I review another product based on Strawberry. ^__^

Review: Etude House Sun Prise Cotton Touch Powder Cream SPF50% PA+++

Annyeong, everyone! How's your weekend so far? It's been raining like almost everyday here in Malaysia so I have to admit that the lazy feeling just creeps on me along with my blanket. hmm.. 

Definitely not a good thing. 

I know everyone's working on their either New Year's or Christmas or for me, New Semester's Wishlist right now so make sure to plan your shopping for you and your loved ones!

If you're reading my haul posts, I bet you've noticed that my recent hauls are mostly filled with makeup items as I've been showing more interest on that plus my skincare routine for the past few months is actually quite the same. 

Hence, today I'm going to review a product released by Etude House quite a few years before  (as the whole Sun Prise line has been upgraded for the better I hope) which is this Sun Prise Cotton Touch Powder Cream with SPF50+ PA+++.

One look, you could have mistakenly took it as a hand cream, am I right?

Beauty Talk | Cleaning My Air Puffs

I still got lots of drawings to be finished for this week's assignment but my room is in a total mess and there's not a cell in my body wanna get up from this bed and do some cleaning but as much as I want to ignore my room right now, I can't ignore my air puffs as I realized this morning it's too dirty to be used. I think I haven't washed them like 2 months! I know. I know. 

So yeah, dreading the fact that I need to wash them for like an hour and I used like 3 different facial cleansers like the last time I did, this time I found another way to wash them easier.

The other day I used my air puffs to apply my liquid foundation (just experimenting on different puffs) and there were some of it on my fingers, which resulted the mess on the white areas. As you can see above right, yes. It's been a while. 

Review | NYX Soft Matte Lip Creams in Stockholm, Istanbul, Zurich and Athens

Hello, lovely people! I'm back with another lipsticks review! :D I know.. I know.. don't judge me!! 

Well, I'm pretty sure you've heard of this lip products line from NYX. These are basically sold out most of the time in Sephora so I'm pretty sure lots of girls are high on these right now. 

As I was really excited to get these babies unwrapped and I just can't wait to try them on lips as I only swatched them on my arms at Sephora, today I'm going to share with you guys out there, whether you too (if you haven't), should get these as well as I did. 

To start with, I got myself 4 Soft Matte Lip Creams which are Stockholm, Istanbul. Zurich and Athens.
