Vid Share: STOP IT!!!!

Hi everybody, my external drive had just crashed and couldn't upload any post for the moment but I would like to share a super awesome video. I was very fortunate to have attended an event with Jeff and Kane from Industry Rockstars for the weekend and during that time we were exploring aspects of how people have self-destructive behaviours. This video is a great example of what we deal with everyday and our responses to our internal monsters.

Have a look -


What do you think about the video? Did you have an a-ha moment? I'd love to hear what you felt and what went through your mind after you watch it. I'm thinking of sticking a poster with the words STOP IT in my bedroom just so I don't become destructive on my goal ^o^

Hope you've enjoyed the video as I did!!!!

Three steps to grab your free samples at SF Beauty Skin

Recently I stumbled upon beauty bloggers raving on SF Beauty Skin and I really wonder - what gives the company such confidence that their members would buy the products from just trying the samples. Don't get me wrong, you won't find this brand anywhere in Malaysia. Its purely an online boutique. However fear not skincare lovers, you will receive a one to one consultation with their beauty consultants within 24 hours of registering your interest on their website. The consultants will discuss and suggest the different products suited to you and your skin. My consultant of the day is ROSE HOW. Really have to thank her for putting up with my schedule as I was out of the country when she called me :P

Well getting your free sample pack is super easy. What you have to do is:

1. REGISTER > Click Here




2. FILL IN YOUR DETAILS



3.  WAIT FOR THE CONSULTANT TO CALL!!



Whilst waiting for the consultant to call you, you can check out their range of products on their website. You can request for specific samples that you want to try or just discuss with your consultant what is your main concern and they are very willing to help ^o^

Love is in the air with January Wonderbox (Valentine's Day edition)

Roses are red, Violets are blue, and its time to say I Love You and give a gift to your other half (well early valentine's present maybe?)!!!! I'm celebrating Valentine's earlier with Wonderbox's January Valentine Edition beauty box!!!!


Isn't the card lovely, I want to lie on a whole tub of rose petals too!!! Wonderbox never ceases to amaze me with their beautiful info cards.


Lets see, in this months Wonderbox there's
1. MURAD Skin Perfecting Primer Dewy Finish;
2. ELIANTO Nutri Range Lipstick;
3. MURAD Pomegranate Exfoliating Mask;
4. 2 sticks of Coloured Hair Chalk;
5. RONASUTRA Anti-bacterial NBR Sponge; and
6. RONASUTRA 2-in-1 Mineral Foundation and Powder.


An overall glance at my January Wonderbox. White roses with pink petals, dear me, such a sweet and innocent feeling.


MURAD Skin Perfecting Primer Dewy Finish
An oil free primer that balances oil production, disguises flaws, evens skin texture and minimizes the appearance of pores.



I'm super excited about this product because I've never used a face primer before and also because its from MURAD!!!!


Its supposedly comes in a universal shade but it looks a tad bit darker on my skin.


The primer was very easy to apply. One pump was more than enough to cover my whole left hand. My skin certainly looks brighter and smoother after application. You can see that it covers my veins and pores very well. I think I'm falling in love! 


RONASUTRA Anti-bacterial NBR Sponge
An anti-bacterial NBR sponge suitable for persons with sensitive skin. It works best with RONASUTRA Mineral Powder


Nothing exciting about this. I thought it would have been included with the Mineral Foundation and Powder instead of being a stand-alone product. 


RONASUTRA 2-in-1 Mineral Foundation and Powder
It gives a naturally luminous look for a soft and even toned complexion. The product is free from talc, synthetic ingredients, fragrance and preservatives. Its also free from blue pigments for a more natural finish.


The product reminds me of the 3 beauty compressed powder packaging. 


Applying on top of the MURAD primer, the right side looks a bit more luminous and shinier giving it a more natural look.


ELIANTO Nutri Range Lipstick in shade 02
Creamy Lipstick with SPF18. Has a soft shiny and moisturising finish.





I really really love this colour! It looks so similar to the CHANEL's newest lipstick collection.


MURAD Pomegranate Exfoliating Mask
This mask instantly smoothes and hydrates skin, restoring brightness and balances combination skin.





Personally I love trying on facial masks. Now I can't wait to try this one from MURAD!!! Pomegranate extracts are really wonderful. I've tried WATSONS pomegranate antioxidant facial mask and it was superb. Check it out > HERE.


Coloured Hair Chalk
A temporary hair dye without any chemical harm. It can be washed off using regular hair shampoo. Easy application. Professional result.


I'm not super excited about the coloured hair chalk. Particularly the green colour chalk. Oh well just have to try it out to be sure.


I love this month's Wonderbox especially the primer, lipstick and the mineral powder. Which one did you like most? I really can't wait for February's Wonderbox - have you subscribed? You can do so via this link >HERE

[Review] SCHWARZKOPF FRESHLIGHT Hair Colour in Mysterious Beige

Happy 2013 beauties!!!! Today's review is all about SCHWARZKOPF FRESHLIGHT Hair Colour in Mysterious Beige. I love their packaging, its superrrr cute!!!!


Today's subject is me!!! My hair colour is more or less like the ones shown in the first box. Mind you, I haven't dyed my hair since July 2012!!!!


Here are some BEFORE photos of my hair:



As you can see from above, I had actually outgrown the colour for quite long but since I'm not a dark hair gal it doesn't seem too different.

INSIDE THE BOX:



1. Colour agent

2. Cream Developer


3. After Colour Treatment


4. Protective Gloves
5. Comb Nozzle
6. Instruction Leaflet


STEP BY STEP GUIDE:

The Instruction leaflet is super easy to understand but here's a visual step by step guide!!!
1. Tear along the dotted line behind the box. It acts as a stand for the Developer agent.  



2. Squeeze everything from the colour cream tube into the bottle


3. Shake and mix the colour agents well and the mixture will look sort of creamy and yellowish. I thought it wasn't mixed well so I had kept on shaking. Other brands that I've used normally looks darker in colour after shake.

4. Now Apply them!!!! Wait for 15-20 minutes and rinse off the mixture. Don't forget to use the After colour treatment!!!

AFTER PHOTOS:



What I like about this product:
1. Easy application with the comb
2. Affordable (app RM 38) and you can find it in any WATSONS store
3. No strong or foul smell from the colouring agent
4. No stains!!!!
5. The After treatment cream smells reallly nice - it reminds me of pink guava!!

What I don't like about it:
1. My scalp had a slight burning sensation after application that I was seriously considering washing it off since it might be allergies but then I thought I had a similar feeling when I had bleached my hair last time so I waited and it was gone. 
2. My hair was a bit dry even after using the After treatment cream.

Would I buy the product again? Yes - maybe try a different colour!!!!

P/S: There's actually instruction to conduct allergy test for the product. If you have really sensitive scalp then please go through the test before trying the product. Not every product suits everyone's skin.
