Transparent Gel Mascara

Have you girls ever heard of a Transparent mascara? Do you use it frequently?

I reckond that most have not heard of transparent mascara before.

Well, I happen to know of its existance while i was a college student and working at a giftshop in the evenings and on day-offs.
There was this lady who is a full-timer called stephanie. Stephanie was much more older than I was thus she never cease to amaze me with the stuffs she put on her face.

So one day, steph left the counter to me and told me that she needed to go buy something.
And she came back with this Mascara from TheBodyShop. And I was so intrigued that her mascara was.......transparent!! hmmm.....hey 10 yrs ago, the only colors available for mascara's are Black and Brown!!! So that was the first time i've seen or heard of a transparent mascara.

Seriously untill now, I havent the slightest idea what transparent gel mascara's are for!!
haha....but i did some googling and apparently, gel mascaras are for you to tame unruley lashes as well as eyebrows too. It sort of works like "hair gel". And apparently putting them before your colored mascaras is a standard best practice.

No doubt mascaras can do wonders to your eyes...but they are such a pain too. Especially towards the end of the day......therefore i really love the idea of a transparent one. So, i actually bought the only transparent mascara available in Sasa. Which is this one. The brand is Jordana (And No that is not my skin behind. It is my Estee lauder vanity case). I actually find it to be very usefull. No mess!! No Stress!! haha.....i just curl my lashes and then apply this transparent gel on....wait a little and curl again....
perfecto!!
I truely recommend transparent mascara for a quick make-up dash cos it is totally fuss free.




  • Product: Transparent Gel Mascara
  • Brand : Jordana
  • Make : USA
  • Bought from : Sasa
  • Price: RM 16.06

Priviledged to spend some time with the little children over at sunday school. I've concluded that kids really does say the darnest things.....

Kid1 and kid2 fighting over something. (both 4 year olds)
Kid1 runs to me....

Kid1 ask while tugging at my leg: " Teacher .....monster bigger or ghost bigger???"
Me: ".........."

Apparently both of them are argueing about which is bigger.....and i supposedly should have the answer to solve their arguement. kekekekee........
Seriously I dont know the answer lah. Anybody care to tell me??

The Body Shop Sales!

Was tipped off by prettybeautiful.net about the Body Shop sales and....

truth is i'm not very regular at TBS, but I do love their stuffs to have quie a decent amount of TBS products/toilettries....

I had wanted to get myself the Vitamin E lotion because I bought the 60ml to try out and I find that it works best for me now when my legs are feeling particularly dry these days.

So I was at KLCC (before going to see MyFairLady). Since I was early I stopped by TBS to take a look. Oh boy was the place crowded!!! I can't even get through to the cosmetics section!!!

But, try as i might to resist temptation to only get stuffs that I need turned out err........i shall say......unsuccessful. This short detour costs me RM103.90 at TBS.

Here is what I got:
1. Vitamin E Lotion 250ML = RM45 (-10%)
  • 2. Vitamin E wheategerm Oil suppliment = RM25 (-10%)
  • 3. Body Lotion Shimmer White Musk 250ML = RM 48 (-50%)
  • 4. Large Nail Clipper = RM26.90 (-50%)
  • 5. Emery Board = RM6.90 (-50%)

I think this time around, the sales is worth it. Even more if you are a TBS member where u get additional 10% off. Too Bad I am not a member.

My Fair Lady Musical!!! Lu-ve-ly!!!

Today is the day that I've been waiting for since more than a month ago!! My Fair Lady Musical!!!
OH-MY-LORD it is simply superb!!!!!! Wish I had pictures to show you guys but I promised Mr.Oli Sones, the london producer of MyFairLady musical (who happen to stumble upon my humble blog)that i wouldn't. So I kept my word.

I can't believe how wonderful the ensemble was....with minimal furnitures, minimal stage space, minimal manpower, with only about 22 stage performers.....they pull together the whole show for 3 hours!! There were never a dull moment!! I find myself giggling silly at thier dialog. I absolutely loveeeeee their dialog!! Very funny and so proper at the same time!! Haven't heard such pleasant english before in my entire life!!! It helped that I was such a MFL fan though....I guess I loved it even more coz I found myself singing along (silently) to all the songs.....I must have watched the movie a dozen times when i was a kid.......

And by george......did i mention that the entire show was accompanied by a live ochestra??!!!!ya with a proper conductor and all!!!!

When the show ended....i felt satisfied and that the money spent was well worth it. I bought the cheapest tickets at RM80 (RM100 with 20% discounts)!! and it wasnt really that far frm the stage and I can still see the performers at a decent size.....hehe........cheapskate me...

When we came out from the show, I had wanted to look for some MFL merchendize to purchase but I couldn't find any. But they were selling this booklettes for RM30 with some info about the act, the actors and actresses...producers...etc.. and i heard that they were selling the VCD's too though I didn't manage to see any....

Oh well......I'm happy!! Bravo to the team!! you are all great!!!

ps. Don't feel sad or offended if we(Malaysians) didn't give you a standing ovation. Trust me, we love you!!! Its just our custom or "habit" u may call it.....we're kinda conservative in expressing ourselves.....Cheers!!!!

Acuvue Define Daily Contact Lenses






























I
have been using Acuvue daily disposable for sometime now. I bought about 3 boxes so far from the shop i frequent at 1Utama called MOG. I never buy the Acuvue Define because the pricetag was rediculous. I can't remember exactly the price but its something like RM120/box with 15pairs (30 pieces)Retail price is RM140/box. Imagine how much I need to spend per month if i use them every day?? a Freaking RM240!! That alone can get me a new pair of glasses per month.

Well, The Acuvue (normal ones) is not exactly cheap either. I bought them at RM90/box (Retail price RM100/box). I only use them as and when I don't feel like wearing my glasses. Perhaps once or twice per week.
I really cant afford to wear them daily. Its like I'm spending RM6 per day!!! ouch to my wallet leh!!

Recently I bought another 2 boxes of Acuvue totalling up to 5 boxes of Acuvue that i've purchased, Johnsons&johnsons had this promotion that entitled me for a free box. And I can choose the Acuvue Define for FREE. Which was great.
(Too bad they discontinued the promotion already)

So whats the difference between the normal "Acuvue" and "Acuvue Define"??
Take a look at the second picture above. Acuvue Define have an additional black color "ring" to the lense. It works like colored lenses, but the purpose is to enlarge your kornea. The optical illusion makes your eyes seems larger. You know, good for girls who wants to look super kawaii a.k.a japanese/korean cutesy girly look. cue "act cute, open your eyes as wide as possible, suck in your cheeks, minimize your lips...look upwards....tilt head slightly....."ok u get the drift... :> hehe

Suprisingly the lenses is quite comfortable. The ring does not get in the way of your vision, unlike colored lenses that often does that.
However, i do find that the ring although not exactly "black" it is slightly "grey" still look too black for my eyes. I have dark brown eyes, thus the "ring" kinda look visible when i look closely. But not obvious at a distance.
I believe they come up with a newer version of "define" having the "ring" in brown instead of black. But I haven't tried that one.

Mothers Day This year - 13th May

Mother's day is around the corner.
I don't know if i've ever celebrated mother's day or if i've always celebrated mother's day!!
Sound confusing??
ya, because my mother's birthday always falls around mother's day (sometimes on the same day).
So, we've always celebrated moms birthday instead of mother's day, or perhaps celebrate 2-in-1 day.....

Anywayz, personally I never believed in all the marketing 'days' invented.
Valentines day, mothers day, fathers day, all souls day.....etc.....
You should REMEMBER your loved ones ALL YEAR ROUND damnit!!!not once a year!!
But then again, i'm not condemning the practice either because it is a good push for people who don't bother with their loved ones!! at least at those particular "day" they are obligated to do something.

For me now, being married means staying away from my parents. I've always been daddy's little girl n mummy's little girl. Of course that is because i am the ONLY girl lah!! We grew up closely knitted ......very fairy tale like family i'd say. Not that we live like royalties materially but fairy-tale-like as in we grew up HAPPY. I never once saw my parents in heated arguement. I treasure that very much as I realized there aren't many "happy families" in the real world.

I appreciate what memorable childhood my parents gave me and i vouch to give the same to my children too.
I absolutely believe that a happy childhood will mold a person into a cheerful person with positive outlook in life.

To all the mom's in the world. Happy mother's day!
Hopefully i'd getto celebrate it together with you guys next year!!!

Sasa Lipstick

With so many lipticks in my possession, most of them are either in the color Nude or Pink.
1 or 2 in peachy orange, 1 or 2 in maroon. and only 1 in purplish tone which is one of my favourite Revlon Moisturestay in "Violet".











I was looking for a lipstick with the similar purple tone and eventually settled on this lippy frm Sasa brand. It wasn't exactly cheap at about RM26 or so. But I like the packaging.

If you look closely, the top of the lippy cap is a reflector that can be used as a small mirror. The color is very nice too. Apart from lipsticks I bought myself some other stuffs too....I'd probably review them seperately.

Happy Labour Day people and enjoy the holidays!!!
