Assalamualaikum and hello.

Nowadays I find myself reaching for skincare or makeup products that are easy to use, in other word 'hassle-free' products. I need to be ready in a jiffy and furthermore I don't want to have too much makeup on my face because I would be attending to my baby most of the times. Therefore tinted moisturizers, BB or CC cream are my best friends now. Recently I came across a product by B.liv called CC Pores Away and I immediately fell in love with it.

B.liv CC Pores Away is a complexion correcting CC cream that corrects and protect the skin complexion while tightening the pores. In a single pump you can now have natural radiant and glowing skin! The main ingredients in this CC cream includes Marula Oil, Brown Algae  and Red Algae. Marula Oil (Sclerocarya Birrea Oil) is rich in Vitamin C, anti-oxidants and Oleic Acid. This oil helps to rebuild skin's barrier, provides in-depth hydration and repair scar which aids in pores tightening. Brown Algae (Laminaria Ochroleuca Extract) is a natural plant-based UV absorbents that has the ability protect the skin from harmful UVA/UVB rays.  Brown Algae makes the product suitable for sensitive skin because of the anti-inflammatory properties. Red Algae (Gelidium Cartilagineum Extract) is rich in anti-oxidant properties due to the existence of Vitamin E & SPD (Superphyco-D, a marine free radical scavenger).

Assalamulaikum and hello.

Last weekend I was invited to a sharing session of the latest skin care in town, Rysya Skincare. I actually has seen the photos shared on the social medias with Rozita Che Wan as the ambassador of the products, but I don't really know anything about it. Curiosity kills the cat they said, well I'm not a cat. *hahaha* but I am curious to find out more about this range since it is a Malaysian product. Rysya Skincare is produced by Thames Skincare Sdn. Bhd, using only the best natural ingredients that wont harm the skin and it is suitable for all skin types. They do not contain SLS and paraben which are always the main ingredients in skincare products. These products are especially formulated for anti-ageing purposes and for those who wants flawless and glowing skin. The keyword is glowing, my dearies. These are not whitening products but they will help your skin to be more radiant and glowing. The founder, Puan Noorazlina decided to venture into skincare business because she wants to help put and share her products with her customers so they can solve their skin problems due to effects of other products that contains too much chemical. Let's find out what products are available in this range!

I love that this toner comes in a spray bottle. I am pretty lazy nowadays to use toner so this is a great way to spritz the product all over my face and I'm done. You can actually spray it on the cotton pad but why waste all the goodness? :D The toner feels refreshing, that's why I like it.

Apply it all over the face and massage gently into the skin. It makes my skin feels soft and supple. I do notice my skin feels moisturize for the whole day. No wonder this is the best seller!

 LY BIRD'S NEST BODY SCRUB

I was told that you can also use this for the face, a multi-task product I must say!

You can also purchase the Premium Set at RM390 which consists of all the 5 products instead buying them off one by one. But I think of all the products, maybe you should try their best seller's first, which is the 24K Gold Miracle Cream.

Assalamualaikum and hello.

When I first got these Maybelline Velvet Matte Lip Liquid Color, I was really excited to test them out because of my love towards matte lipstick. This latest addition in Maybelline's family is a lip product that turns from liquid to matte without compromising hydration for the lips. One look at it, it looks similar like the other version of the liquid lip color which is the Maybelline Lip Polish [READ FULL REVIEW]. The applicator is still the same, the only difference is the black matte cap. The two shades that I got are MAT 4 and MAT 6. MAT 4 is a coral with pink undertone while MAT 6 is a plum/berry. Let's find out my thoughts on these liquid lip color!  

The shade MAT 4 is certainly not my colour. I am not a fan of coral because I simply don't look good in coral. Furthermore the shade looks very patchy on my lips so yes this product will settle on your chapped and dry lips. MAT 6 is gorgeous! It does remind me of Maybelline Lip Polish in Glam 6 which I always go for if I want glossy berry lips. Speaking of pigmentation, I would say it gives wonderful pay off. The applicator is perfect because it is easy to use and I used both sides (one for top lips and another one for bottom lips application). Does it leaves my lips hydrated? Yes it does. It gives sort-of like a tingling sensation after the application. It took longer to dry and I actually timed it and it took about at least 10 minutes for my lips to be less glossy. I couldn't ignore the fact that it is still has this shiny effect! After 30 minutes, I finally get the velvet matte lips that I want. Phewwww that's a long wait! It transfers easily so yes it will stain your drinking glass but it leaves nice stain on the lips. It is lightweight on the lips so this is a plus point for me.  I really want to fall in love with this, but I just don't like the fact that I need to wait for it to dry. Seriously I need my lips to be matte, fast. The waiting is definitely a turn off. I like it for the colour pay off, easy application and the hydration it gives because we know that most matte lipsticks are very drying. So yeah, that's my thoughts on Maybelline Velvet Matte Lip Liquid Color.

Maybelline Velvet Matte Lip Liquid Color is retailed at RM32.90 and is available at participating pharmacies nation wide. Let me know in the comment box below if you have tried out this liquid lipstick. I am curious to find out your thoughts on them!

Assalamualaikum and hello.

My problematic skin condition due to my pregnancy hormone has worsen since I delivered my baby. I guess I am to blame because I was lazy, exhausted and I don't have the strength to even wash my face the first 5 days when I was in the hospital. So when I got home, I discovered that my face had become so dull, darker and super oily! It's weird because my skin has been so dry for the past 9 months. I was sent Malaika Facial Treatment Oil one week before my delivery, therefore I do not have the time to try it out. Why do I want to give it a go? Because personally I think facial oil is a great way to moisturize the skin without leaving the skin feel greasy and oily. I know this would be a great addition in my skin care routine because I need to have a 'ME' time in the morning and I need a good massage for my face to improve my blood circulation. Want to know more about Malaika Facial Treatment Oil? Keep on reading!

I am not sure whether you can tell the difference between these 2 photos, but from my experience of using it, it makes my skin soft and smooth. My skin has become less oily too. And I do notice that my skin has become slightly fairer. I would say my face looks more glowing and not dull-looking. You must know how a woman in 'pantang' look like right? *hahaha* but please don't mind my eyebag. My baby does not sleep from 1 am till 4 am for every single night. T_T As far for the blackhead and whitehead, I do not see any difference. Same goes with pore and acne scars reduction. I guess I need to continue using it to find out whether it works in that area. Oh I love it that the oil penetrates deeply into my skin and does not leave any greasy residue! Do I like this facial oil? YES! I only use Malaika Facial Treatment Oil, cleanser, moisturizer, eye cream and lip balm every single day since I started my confinement. These products have been a life saviour! 

I would suggest Malaika Facial Treatment Oil if you are interested to try out facial oil since this is very affordable. You can go a long way with 50ml since you only need a little at each application. If you want smoother and softer skin, maybe this facial oil is the answer. Let me know in the comment box below if you've already try it out!

There's a lot of wedding at this time of the year, especially in December. I have quite a number of invitations already and I am thinking about what to wear! One of the best choices back in those days were the traditional baju kurung. But now, baju kurung moden terkini is the latest trend that you can spot everywhere! 

What is baju kurung moden terkini? Well in my book, they are modernized baju kurung that is more stylish and fashionable and suitable for 'the now'. You can see a lot of lace, peplum and creative statement pieces which are in demand now and they are easily accessible via online. Online shopping is crucial especially during celebration such as Eid and wedding season. I think baju kurung moden really spiced up the traditional look but still in a modest way. 

Baju kurung moden can be easily styled with accessories and hijab. Not forgetting you can spice it up with a good pair of high heels and a statement handbag. Mix and match your accessories and you will look like a million bucks! I would always go for a baju kurung moden instead of any other style because they are simple and yet elegant.

Thanks to our talented Malaysian designers, they work very hard to come out with great designs to ensure that our baju kurung will always be a favourite style amongst us. These baju kurung moden  can be easily purchased online, there's a lot to choose from and trust me you will find something that will suit you!

Assalamualaikum and hello. :)

This is a story of the day before I admitted into the hospital for my labour. Yes, I was still going around here and there before the big day because this woman can not sit still! :P Anyway, The Butterfly Project and Clinique were kind enough to invite me to the blogger's introduction of Clinique's latest foundation which is the Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer SPF 19/PA++  Well this event was not just about the introductory of the foundation, but we also got the opportunity to experience a photoshoot, exciting time! :) The photoshoot was held at Metal Bees Production, somewhere in Sunway Damansara. I actually had been to another production house somewhere around the area for a casting so the place is quite familiar.

Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer SPF 19/PA++ is a 2-in-1 liquid foundation that is designed specifically for Asian skins, which also double up as concealer to give the skin the perfect flawless skin. Like seriously, if I can save time skipping my concealer by just using this foundation, why not? Use it as foundation all over the face or just spot apply to any imperfection you wish to diminish! It is a long-wearing foundation that can last up 12 hours and the best part of this foundation is because of the lightweight feel. The foundation has this magic wand applicator that can be used several ways. Use the angled tip to apply dots all over the face, use it sideways to spread out the foundation on the cheeks or use the tip to cover smaller blemishes. 

Titanium Dioxide in the foundation provides broad spectrum UA/UVB protection to prevent dark pigmentation without irritating the skin. The weightless feel of the foundation is the result of the combination of polymers : acrylates/dimethicone copolymer and gellants, such as dextrin palmitate in a volatile form that creates a unique whipped cream-like texture. Where as PEG-7 dimethicone is a film-forming polymer that creates a silky feel that allows long-wearing hours without drying up the skin.

Beyond Perfecting Foundation + Concealer SPF 19/PA++ is Allergy Tested and 100% Fragrance free. So anybody with sensitive skin, this is your calling. There are 6 shades available ; Ivory, Rose Beige, Fresh Beige, Cream Beige, Neutral and True Beige. It is retail at RM132/30ml and can be purchased at all Clinique counters nationwide.

I personally LOVE the foundation because of the lightweight feel. Nobody wants cakey face anymore and this foundation is perfect especially in our hot and humid weather. The fact that the foundation saves time (because it double up as concealer) makes it perfect if I need to get ready in a jiffy. And the foundation looks flawless in photos/video, perfect! :D Check out the video below to find out how to apply the foundation and more!

After the makeover, we did a photoshoot and oh boy it was fun! I've done quite a number of photoshoots before but I still get nervous. *hahaha* this momma is too heavy to move around! Being 38 weeks pregnant that time is definitely challenging! :D

I would like to say a big thanks to The Butterfly Project and Clinique Malaysia for having me at the event. I had fun, laughter and most of all, I found a new foundation that I adore. I highly recommend this foundation if you are looking for  a foundation that is lightweight.long-wearing and gives you natural but flawless finish. Do check it out okay? :)
