Do you use facial wipes?

I have just started the habit of using facial wipes.

Reason #1 : I used them because I AM LAZY.
Sometimes I come back from work at 11pm or party until 2am. So these wipes are god sent to speed up the cleansing process. Having said that, in my opinion, it is never sufficient to remove your make up with only facial wipes. On lazy days I will replace my oil/milk cleanser with facial wipes and i will still wash my face with a foaming cleanser after that.

Reason #2 : I used them because the LAVATORY in the PLANE is the most INCONVENIENT place to wash my face.
When I travel on long haul flights, I do not put any make up I will only apply my skin care. When I am almost reaching, I will clean and refresh my skin with the facial wipes and eliminate the need to wash my face in the lavatory.

Reason #3 : To WIPE OFF your SUNSCREEN before re-applying
It is a very convenient item to have when you are on a beach where you need to constantly re-apply sun block on your face. I wipe off before reapplying to remove all the sand and dirt, because it is kind of gross to have sand and dirt on your face and mix them with the subsequent application of sunblock!

I know some people use them to clean off their make up before re-applying them. I don't do that because i hardly re-apply my make up in the day.
These is how and when i use my facial wipes :)
What about you? How and When do you use your facial wipes?

Daiso Haul

It was one of those days when I was broke but I still feel like shopping. I figured I can buy something inexpensive. So I decided to pop by DAISO. I bought 4 items last week and here they are.

The much raved about Detergent for puffs and sponge. I will be doing a separate review on this later.

Disposable Powder puffs. 1 pack comes with 13 triangle puffs. This is very useful for foundation and BB cream. I used this for some of my BB cream. I read the instruction at the back and there is a caution line that says that this sponge may turn yellow when it’s exposed to light and air but if that happens it is still safe to use them. So far it hasn’t turn yellow on me.
Sandwich bag. The reason I bought this was because I wanted to make cucumber pads and store the pads in the bag and put it in the freezer. It is really affordable and sometimes I reuse them.
Hair pin. This cute little silver box that comes with 20 hair pins. I have to admit that I was attracted to the packaging rather than the pins. It look like a little mint box that you can slide open. It is very useful to carry around.
I am very happy with all these products and most of all it answers my cravings for shopping and more importantly it did not burn a hole in my pocket J
Verdict : NIL
Price : Super Affordable RM5 for each of the item
Where : Daiso IOI Mall and other Daiso

My Grown Up Christmas List


Do you remember me?
I sat up on your knee
I wrote to you with childhood fantasy

Well I’m all grown up now
Can you still help somehow?
I’m not a child but my heart still can dream

So here’s my lifelong wish
My grown up Christmas list
Not for myself but for a world in need

No more lives torn apart
That war will never start
And time will heal our hearts
Every man would have a friend
That right will always win
And love would never end

This is my grown up Christmas list.

A Beautiful Sunday

It is a beautiful Sunday and I am at MidValley. Sitting alone at Delicious waiting for my friend :)

It had been a while since I hang out this early on a Sunday morning with my coffee and breakfast alone at a café/restaurant. It is a really nice feeling, lazing and not thinking of what to do next. I am here just gazing at people who walked by. As usual there is a lot of young family hanging around, with their baby strollers and young kids or some older kids who is helping their parents pushing the strollers, some with their maid. Also older adult in their late 40s, hanging out with their friends and or with their spouse . Not too many young people at this time on a Sunday which I can understand, especially after the world cup match at 2.30 am this morning.

Here’s my laptop and my coffee

Makes me realize that life is beautiful if you know how to enjoy it :)

Lost...

Once upon a time, in a far far away land there live a funny prince and a chatty princess. They were living happily and lovingly for the longest time. Then one fine day, something mean happened. And the next thing they knew, a war has begun between the prince and princess.

They started saying and doing more hurtful things to each other. The princess turned green, mean and ugly and a lot of nasty and hurtful words came out of her once nice and sweet mouth. The prince who used to be so kind and devoted to the little princess on the other hand choose to ignore the little princess and the poor princess got more frustrated and say even nastier thing to get his attention. Everything blew out of proportion and there was silence for a while and it all repeated itself again and again.

Then one day after a long silence, they both decided to meet and talk at the prince palace. They sat at the prince's garden. It was a peaceful night with thousand of stars shinning upon the two souls. They both sat down quietly. The princess refuse to look at the prince. They asked each other 1 question at a time and get a 1 word answer in return.

Then the princess decides to look at the prince. Her heart sank at first glance. The prince looks horrible. He looked so tired and lost. And then again there was silence. They continued their conversation and the both of them got more comfortable. It was getting late and it was time to go home.

The both of them felt like staying but neither of them say anything. They kept asking each other to leave the garden first. The both of them stood, getting ready to leave.

They turned away from each other.

Started walking away from each other.

Then they stopped.

They turned around, the last thing they knew, they were hugging each other and tears started streaming down their cheeks.

Silence follows...

Very heavy heartedly, they walked away from each other that night when the stars were shinning bright.

Tsuya Tsuya

I was wandering at Watson yesterday and i notice that they have a new brand in store. It is called Tsuya Tsuya and it originated from Korea. They have some mascaras and also some manicure and pedicure stuff. There is one particular interesting item i saw. It is a hairband which you are supposed to wear under your hair to give an illusion that your hair is thicker. Sounds cool but that thing costs RM 79. Very expensive la...

I intend to try their mascara but it is also quite pricy about RM 79 and i think the base also cost RM 79. I will consider this brand once i finish all my mascara. I currently have 4 tubes of mascara that is opened and i seriously do not know when will i finish them. I just bought the Maybeline 5X volume mascara 2 weeks ago. Will write a review on that sometime this week.

Kiss Me Mascara - Has been discontinued

Kiss Me Mascara has been DISCONTINUED!!!!

I felt so sad. I was at Plaza Damas for lunch with a friend and she commented that she likes the mascara i was wearing. Then i brought her to Sasa. I tried looking for the mascara but can't find. So i thought maybe because the Sasa in Plaza Damas is a small outlet therefore they do not carry. Then i decided to ask the sales assistant and she told me that it has been discontinued.

I started texting my friends and all of them were really upset. Haihhhhhh...

My Beauty routine when I am in a diligent mood

I normally do this during the weekend OR when i have some party to attend the next day :)

Step 1: Cleansing Milk to remove make up

Step 2: Cleansing gel to clean my face

Step 3: Hop into the shower, shampoo & body shampoo

Step 4: Hair mask (leave for 10 minutes)

Step 5: Body scrub while waiting for hair mask to work its magic

Step 6: Out of the shower, splash moisturizing lotion all over my body

Step 7: Mask 1 – to remove dead skin (acts like a scrub)

Step 8: Cream to massage my face to help blood circulation

Step 9: Hydrating mask (when I am using a tissue mask, I will skip the normal toner/serum and moisturizer)

Step 10: LAST but not least, moisturizing lotion for feet. After that wear a pair of socks and ZZZzzzzzz

Pheeewwww….. There are 10steps!!! And it takes between 75 minutes to 90 minutes to complete the routine! Well, the most important thing is that I feel clean and moisturize after that. I try to do it once a week.

Time Off - Will it make or break you?

Why do couples need a break in their relationship? These are a few reasons that i think is valid to call for a time off.

1. Because of 3rd party. Then you should review your relationship and see if it is worth forgiving him/her to continue or end the relationship.
2. Beginning of a relationship (less than 1 year). To evaluate if you are right for each other or else, let's not waste each other's time in nurturing the relationship.
3. Commitment level of both parties. When either party feels it is time to settle, but cannot reach a common understanding.

My question is, do you think time off will make or break a relationship?

Miss la-la land here definitely do not have an answer to that therefore this is meant as a point to ponder on.
