  • Sealed with A CiUM

    Sponsored Post

    Warning: This post is dedicated to those who are married or in a relationship.

    What do you do first thing in the morning when open your eyes? Check your phone? Turn off the alarm? Or you kiss your other half and greet him/her good morning? Jo and I always greet each other in the morning or night with a kiss #truestory because kissing is the simplest and easiest way to show him/her they are being loved or appreciated. If you don’t, you should totally start today hahaha.

    Nope, don’t get me wrong my post is not teaching you how to kiss your other half but to let you know how to make kissing more sweet and flavorful.

    1

    Let me introduce to you, CiUM! A lip balm that helps to draw couples closer by enhancing couples’ kissing experiences.

    2

    CiUM comes in a pack of two different flavors, S’Berry & Meeko or Sambal & Ais! All you need to do is to let your partner choose a flavor then apply them on both of your lips, kiss and enjoy!

    3

    You must be wondering how CiUM helps to enhance your kissing experience! Well, it’s actually quite simple, when the couples apply CiUM lip balm and kiss, CiUM unique flavors will combine and you will get a burst of sweet flavor that make the kissing experience more unique and full of sweet surprises.

    4

    I have pretty much tried all flavors but I have narrowed down my super favorite which is CiUM Ais because it gives my lips a icy cool feeling, and in hot weather like Malaysia, it’s perfect. I have been carrying CiUM with me because it not only helps to enhance my kissing experiences, it also helps to keep my lips moisturized!

    If you’re interested into making your kissing moment more memorable and fun, you can easily get them at www.nomonkey.org or you can also buy them onboard on all Air Asia flights.

    5

    Remember to kiss your other half good night or good morning everyday!

  • Panasonic Beauty Cafe

    Sponsored Post

    So, last week while everyone was busying attending #KLFWRTW2015, I was busy getting ready to attend Panasonic Beauty Café. I’m sure if you have been following me you should remember I attended a similar event last year together with Audrey and Nana! Im so glad that I received another invitation from Panasonic again this year, it’s always fun to check out new beauty technologies that Panasonic has brought to the market. The event was held at Betjeman & Barton in One Utama Shopping Mall, perfect for ladies and of cox taitais =)

    I was there slightly early so I get to take pictures in the photobooth without having to queue! The benefit of arriving early to an event =)

    DSC08179

    Then I was lead to a table with lots of Panasonic beauty products. I love how they allow us to feel and touch the products so that we can understand them better by playing with it! I will let you guys know which is my favorite hehe.

    DSC08182

    Say Hi to Nana, my soon to be neighbor! I told her she can come visit anytime so I can cook her dinner. OMG I sound like a mother now T_________________T

    DSC08183

    I still remember I was using Panasonic Warming Facial & Body Roller EH-SP32 the whole time at last year’s event lol. It’s super comfortable because it’s heated, you get to choose between two temperature settings  44c or 48c!

    DSC08199

    Say Hi to Cheesie, it has been a while since I last attended event with this hot mama!

    DSC08185 DSC08190

    Event started with a welcome speech from Panasonic representative then we have Yves Chong from Number 76 to show us how to style and take good care of our hair by using Panasonic EH-NA65 Nanoe hair dryer! It helps to dry our hair and yet still keep it moisturized at the same time, so you get shinny and smooth hair everyday!

    DSC08198

    After that Yves also demo how to curl our hair by using EH-HW18 Easy Straightening and curling iron! Panasonic EH-HW18 also helps to moisturize your hair while using it!

    DSC08202

    Trying out the Panasonic  EH-HE94 Head spa! It has 4-disc rotation massage brush head to be used in wet or dry condition! You can enjoy your little head spa in the shower or while watching tv. I have tried it and it’s so comfortable and relaxing!

    DSC08203 DSC08205

    Now, it’s time to introduce my favorite Panasonic beauty product of the day, the Facial Cool Putter EH-SQ10! It helps to instantly cool down our skin and shrink our pores! The Facial Cool Putter reaches about 10c (when room temp is 25c). It’s perfect for us because the weather in Malaysia is crazy hot and we are always exposed under the sun! When you’re hot would crave for icy cool water, so imagine the same thing applies to your skin! When it’s hot it will expand and with Panasonic cool putter, it helps to shrink your pores and tighten your skin! I can imagine lying in bed using it and applying a mask on my face!

    DSC08207

    Last but not least we have Aishah Sinclair, Panasonic Beauty Personality, to share her experiences and  her beauty secrets using Panasonic!

    DSC08208

  • In Your Face

    Sponsored Post

    You know how the older generation will tell you why you shouldn’t do anything to you face, because it represents your fortune? If you make changes to it, it might bring you bad luck or misfortune but if you do it accordingly it will help to enhance your life. In the past, I don’t really believe in this, and I thought it was just a myth created by some old folks just like many other Chinese myths.

    Well, I think my point of view on this matter has definitely changed after I attended The Sloane Clinic workshop a few weeks ago, which I attended with hot mamas Michiekin and Kimberlycun, and Teycindy in Pavilion Beauty Hall. A little introduction on the clinic before I start sharing what I have learned from the workshop, and I have say, it’s pretty interesting!

    1

    The Sloane Clinic is a chain of aesthetic clinic for the skin, face and body and they are also one of the leading aesthetic clinics in Singapore and Malaysia. Whether it is a subtle enhancement or a dazzling makeover, The Sloane Clinic can provide them with their comprehensive armamentarium of beauty innovations, dedicated medical aesthetic team, fully-trained plastic surgery team and wide range of skincare by SLOANE INC. They have newly opened at The Beauty Hall in Pavilion.

    2 3

    I was slightly late because I kept thinking the event was at 12pm, only to find out it was at 11am. So I rushed like a mad girl and skipped my breakfast, thank god The Sloane Clinic was sweet enough to prepare breakfast and lunch for us =) I stuffed my face with 5 plates of salads, literally. I don’t know why but the ceaser salad that day was super good!

    Thank god I didn’t miss anything because the workshop was pretty interesting! It’s quite rare that I will share information that I learned from workshops to family or friends because most of the time I forget most of them. Surprisngly, for this workshop I remember 70% of them! The reason is pretty simple because I’m old enough to worry about my own fortune and you know when you’re getting older, you tend to worry more than when you’re young! You worry about your life, your career, your kids, your husband and your financial standing. I have to admit I do worry about all sorts of things, so learning about ways to overcome these issues or problems are pretty interesting. Who doesn’t want a better life? That’s when workshops like this comes to the rescue!

    4The workshop started with Ms Cindy Chew, a professional face reading consultant from Soleil Trinity, teaching us how your face can affect your fortune! As mentioned earlier, our facial features can predict our life’s successes, so small changes in our face can reap big rewards in our personal life, career, marriage, and so on. She also showed us some good examples using well known idols suchs as Amber Chia, Siti Nurhaliza and also Michelle Reis.

    5After the facial reading, we have Dr Low Chai Ling, founder of The Sloane Clinic sharing tips on how to enhance our beauty with aesthetic treatments!

    6She also showed us some examples on how some small touches could make you look prettier!

    7Last but not least, we have Dr Aster Low explaining how to enhance your skin quality by using science.

    Let me share some tips and tricks of what I have learned so make sure you have a mirror with you now so that you can check on your face after reading it =). Do you know that the facial features that denote the good fortune are the same one that adds to the face’s aesthetic appeal? Come let’s dissect them one by one.

    8

    Your forehead represents your career so the smoother and broader it is, the more smooth-sailing career you have. Flaws on this part may reflect problems in the form of bad health, distressful relationship or money troubles. Forehead lines (frown lines) means that person worries or thinks a lot.  Sunken temples on women mean a possible extramarital affair on your husband’s part T___T.

    How can we fix it?

    Fraxel Light helps to eliminate wrinkles, pigmentation and scars in exchange for a silky smooth skin for your face especially forehead! As for sunken temples you can try  Voluma High Definition Lift aka fillers to help lifting and restores sunken temples! Say halo to your happy marriage and smooth career!

    Broad brows and upper eyelids that open up to long, sparkling clear eyes bring luck to your real estate and material endeavors.

    How can we fix it?

    Thermage  using non-invasive radiofrequency treatment to smooth out crinkles and brighten your eyes area.

    Your nose represents how wealthy you are or you will get! A rounder and fleshier nose means more wealth. Moles on the tip of a nose are regarded as a major sign of misfortune, not just moles, dark spots or blackheads are included too.

    How can we fix it?

    Most of you should have already known fillers can do wonders on your nose hehehe so you can consider natural fillers on the nose bridge and tip to enhance the height and definition of the nose. If not you can try using cosmetic to highlight your nose bridge to create a brighter and clear look!

    Cheekbones that are prominent are an indication of power and authority. People who have prominent cheekbones are courageous, determined, adventurous, and independent. They have no problems in taking risks or trying something new.

    How can we fix it?

    Voluma High Defition Lift/ Restylane Hydrolift for the cheeks helps to restore lost volume your cheekbones and make your skin looks shinny too! You can also try undergoing a skin brightening procedure such as IPL to give your cheek area radiance and a healthy glow. Applying light pink blush can also help to create bright and rosy cheeks

    The “Popularity House” in your jaw (refer to the diagram below) rules your relationship with colleagues and the younger generations – a round and full chin speaks of your popularity amongst followers.

    On the other hand, people who have narrow mouths are ruled by their head, whereas people with wide mouths are ruled by their heart.

    Ok now check you face and refer haha

    9

    Round and even lips mean the person is caring.

    10

    A thin lipped people (pic A) are said to be very cautious, reserved, and not an adventure-lover.

    11

    If the upper lip is protruding (pic E) the person is understanding and kind.

    Pigmentation affects the smoothness of someone’s authority and power. This also means that he or she will experience a lot of threats and challenges.

    How can we fix it?

    For chin, implants can help augment a weak and receding chin but if you are not keen on surgery like me ==”, consider using natural fillers to give you a perfect chin! Whereas for lips and lips shapes, you can try using Revitalift Lips (filler for lips) to enchance your lips shape like what I did!

    Told you it’s really interesting, I wish I could record everything Ms Cindy said and play it for you all!

    12

    Once again, thanks to The Sloane Clinic for all the tips and useful information on my face! All in all, your facial features that denote the good fortune are the same one that adds to the face’s aesthetic appeal. I’m quite amazed that how a little touch of aesthetic can help to improve our fortune by so much but of course you still need to work hard on what you want. Nothing comes for free in this world OK! I hope you guys learned something from it like me.

  • CLEANSUI (Japan) Healthy Mineral Drinking Water

    I’m sure most of you are aware that Jo and I are currently in the middle of renovating our new place, and something important that we have decided very early on our project that was the water filtration and drinking water for our new home.

    At our current place, my MIL is using a famous name-brand Reverse Osmosis (RO) water drinking system that has hot and cold drinking water. I didn’t really learn what was RO water until after a few years of drinking it, but I always felt that the water was weirdly very tasteless and “clean”. RO is actually a process of water filtration that removes chemicals and substances from water, and along with all the naturally occurring minerals that you find in fresh water.  In nature, fresh water contains minerals like calcium, magnesium, and potassium, which our body needs.

    This is why, if you have every bought a bottle of mineral water vs drinking water at the convenience store, you will find the taste remarkably different!

    Not only that, for these types of drinking water system, it is built into their contract where you are required to pay annually for servicing and changing of filters.

    When it was our turn to choose a system for our home, I told Jo that we should consider a different system, which could provide clean, but yet healthy drinking water.

    About a year ago, I was reading Cheesie’s blog and she did a post on CLEANSUI. I was very interested and eventually I contacted CLEANSUI for our new home. CLEANSUI is one of the leading names in water filtration in Japan, and have recently expanded to many other countries.

    A CLEANSUI representative then invited us and Kampungboycitygal for a short demo and to view their range of products as we were both in the midst of planning our renovation and also very keen on their products.

  • Up And Above with P1

    1Back in college in the US many years ago, Jo once flew me in a small plane the day he got his pilot’s license. It was a memorable experience as I remember being super happy because not many people get to experience being flown by someone you love. Ever since then I always wondered if I would get the same thrill as flying on a helicopter and I still remember asking Jo to get a helicopter license so that he could teach me how to fly a helicopter too. He was like, “Nah, they’re two different things”. When he graduated as a pilot there were no companies that were hiring so he had no choice but to go into a different field. No doubt, we were both frustrated, Jo couldn’t pursue what he really loved and for me, my dream of flying on a helicopter just sort of ended there haha. We both graduated and entered the lives as working adults until today.

    Fast forward to today, while watching the infamous Fifty Shades of Grey (the scene where Christian takes Ana on a helicopter ride with Ellie Goulding’s Love Me Like You Do playing in the background) it just hit me ; Why didn’t I think of pursuing my dreams of flying a helicopter years ago? Why did I just let the gates of adulthood stand in the way of my teenage dreams?

    And do dreams only come true in movies?
