This post is not a review or anything to do with shopping stories. Just wanted to share something funny…well I don’t know if you will find it funny or scary!
The other day I was browsing some products on Watsons’ shelves and came across this Japanese brand of hand and heel cream. Curious, I picked it [...]

Since I permed my hair about 4 months back, I find that the hair ends are especially dry. I’ve been using Shiseido’s Crystallizing Aquafix but then I stopped when I found that maybe the hair moisturiser is meant more for straight hair. So off I went to search for a hair moisturiser and that’s when [...]

Have you heard of F-Cup Cookie?

by Penny on June 17, 2010

I only recently heard of F-Cup Cookie from a local magazine. Have you? For those who have not heard, F-Cup Cookie is a breast enhancement product from Japan. They are cookies that are made with special ingredients to enhance the size of breasts.

Hats off to the Japanese for even thinking up such a product. But [...]

Would you buy skin care products online?

by Penny on June 6, 2010

Lately the internet is key to many people. Not only is it a vast pool of knowledge and resources, it has also become a business medium for thousands of people. Before, to be able to sell something, you will most likely think it a hindrance in terms of setting up shop. But now with the [...]

Keeping the wrinkles at bay

by Penny on June 3, 2010

I’ve not seriously shopped for wrinkle creams (yet!) but I may need to start soon. Every woman needs to go down that path, huh? Anyway, I remember being approached by sales assistants from various brands on their beauty products and of course I remember being approached for wrinkle creams too. Sometimes not very flattering but [...]

In the world of beauty, it is not only make up and skin care that does it. That’s why these days even the cosmetic brands get into slimming products. I’m sure without naming names we can already think of a few that offers slimming creams and oils to help burn fats.
The reason I’m bringing up [...]

Blackhead solution, anyone?

by Penny on May 15, 2010

One of the hardest thing to solve with regards to skin care is blackhead problems. At least that’s my problem. I’m quite fortunate that I don’t have other skin issues, but this one is a pretty hard one to solve. I just find that blackheads are something that just keep coming back and there’s no [...]

Anyone can recommend some body acne wash?

by Penny on April 28, 2010

Does anyone know of an effective back acne treatment or at the very least a body wash that can help clear or reduce acne on the body? I’m helping someone to look for it but have so far not come across such niche products from our local pharmacies like Guardian and Watson.
Some friends have suggested [...]

Heard of the Herbal Life juice program?

by Penny on March 25, 2010

I’ve heard quite a lot about Herbal Life as a weight loss program as well as a multi-level marketing business. At one point, I used to see people walking about the streets in the heart of KL, adorning a badge that read “Lose weight now, ask me how”. I have to say it’s a pretty [...]

Since the hair care brand Asience came to our shores quite a while back, I’ve never tried using it. It didn’t really appeal to me then. Recently I was looking for a different brand and I thought of giving Asience a try since I’ve tried most of the brands on the shelves. And I love [...]

Anyone likes Hada-Labo skincare products?

by Penny on February 21, 2010

I was recently going to replenish my Vichy Aqualia Thermal Fortifying & Soothing Hydrating Concentrate (read the review of the facial essence here) when I suddenly had the itch to try out some other brand called Hada-Labo. I’ve never used it before but what attracted me to it is that it’s a Japanese product. I [...]

Review of Botani Olive Hand Cream

by Penny on January 21, 2010

This is a long overdue review of the Botani range of products. I’ve written some before (reviews of cleanser and a repair cream) and this last installment of the Botani products I’m going to touch on the Olive Hand Cream. I must say that I don’t usually use hand creams. I normally would just use general moisturisers or lotions [...]

Yesterday was the start of the Vichy Friends & Family Christmas Sale at Uptown, PJ. The sale continues this Friday to Sunday, but in Klang. So I took the opportunity to go for yesterday’s sale since I don’t know my way around Klang area at all. Here’s how it went.
I reached there just before 10am which [...]

Of all the face moisturisers I’ve used for years, I’ve finally found one that I truly love using and it is none other than the Vichy Aqualia Thermal Mat Hydrating Gel. It is quite a mouthful, but bear with me.

Previously I wrote a review on the essence from this same range, which is Vichy’s Aqualia Thermal [...]

Recently I was introduced to a new range of organic skincare and didn’t say no to trying out the cleanser called Botani Olive Soothing Cleanser. This organic skincare product is a product of Australia but can be easily purchased here in Malaysia via Nature In A Box.
 
This organic cleanser does not contain sulphate and is suitable for [...]

Tempted by Aster Spring’s facial promotion

by Penny on October 15, 2009

Aster Spring, previously known as Leonard Drake is currently having a promotion at KLCC. I have never used the products before nor have I been to any of their beauty treatments, but the facial promotion they’re running caught my attention.
A normal facial session which costs RM198 is now going for RM68. If you sign up [...]
