Quick Update


So I'm fully aware that I've kinda abandoned this blog. Just updating a little here cause I don't have much to write anyways.I finally bought my very first sunglass. Though I wish to buy those trendy big glasses but I end buying this cause it fits me better. I did one with power. So not going to wear contact lenses.



I'm also patiently awaiting for my much needed mandate leave- going away on a holiday which I'll write more once I got back. Started a fanfic in AFF then got stuck midway. Maybe if I'm not lazy today, I'll start drafting again. The problem is I got so much plot in my head but when I start to type, there goes nothing. My story always runs away from the original draft.

Watched the finale of Harry Potter. Can't believe that it actually ended. I grew up watching it. No more Harry Potter to look forward to moving onwards.Lots and lots of Kpop songs nowadays - kinda fancy B2ST and Rainbow and some 2NE1 songs. Current playlist- Fiction and Hate U.I 've also pre-ordered SJ 5th album. Their new teaser gave me a full heart attack until Leeteuk's. Honestly, I really like Kyuhyun's- not that I'm not biased- but his is really good. I don't mind the colorful teaser at all and the leopard print, the armpit and the bulge (=p pervy me)!




Super Junior fanmade chibis are too cute I can resist to post them. Too keopta.





Oh..and I found back my most trusted salesperson for Clinique. I started using their Blemish set. My skin is still that bad. Hopefully will get better after I get my much needed rest and using Clinique back.

Skin Nightmare

So I had posted previously how I'm excited to try my new Laneige products. Unfortunately, it doesn't turn out to be a good experience at all. In fact, it's a terrible nightmare! I'll just have myself to blame for having the greed to try new fancy (and most importantly Korean) products. I'm like brainwashed to accept that everything Korean = Daebak!! Haha...thanks to my Kpop addiction!
But 1 lesson learnt- never ever try it on your face!!!
I used to be pimple and acne free, the envy of all my friends and colleagues. Although I'm dark skinned, my skin is soft and clear. Until I cross path with Laneige and the nightmare begins. It started with a few pinkish dot believe to be pimples then on both sides of my end cheek. I stopped using rightaway but the worse is yet to come. I couldn't remember clearly what I did after that living in agony for the past months for having terrible acne all over my face. By that, it means a very reddish covered with acne face- not a spot to be missed- all over my face right below my eyes.
It got so ugly that my boss even told me to seek specialist help. That was nearly 3 months ago.
So I finally went to a specialist one day, took some medication and cream and I can safely and gladly say that my condition had recovered. My face is still a little bit reddish with some pimple dots but it's not entirely pimples covered like before though I secretly hope that one day, my acne and pimple free day will come back to me.
I still do not know what is the main cause of this so called "Eczema"- as what the specialist say it is. My GP says it's allergies. Whatever it is, I only remembered using Laneige and it turned out like this. If I stay true to Clinique...will this happen too?

Another Clinique splurge

Everything comes with a story and for me, it's so hard to say no to any Clinique products because I'm just so in love with them.

I've been trying to find a suitable perfume since I finished using my Happy Clinique one. I tried Versace Versense - it's seductive but comes with a pricier tag. So, when I head down to my fave Clinique counter last weekend, gosh here's the products that I spent on.

Get Happy set -RM120
(Happy Clinique perfume and lotion)

I thought why not use the same perfume again since I like the scent a lot and come with cheaper tag. The lotion is equally nice smelling.


Total Moisture set -RM170
(Moisture Surge Extended Thirst Relief, Moisture Surge Face Spray & Gloss in Grapefruit)

Moisture surge is my definite must have for my everyday skincare. One moisture surge costs me RM160 alone so by paying more RM10, I get the face spray and the lip gloss- why not? It's so worth it!

Then, there's there 1-2-3 steps which has now broaden itself -the more I purchased, the more steps I need to squeeze into. Cleanser, toner, concentrate, moist, moist again and sunblock and when the skin's dry again- re-moist!

So, in a bunch , it looks like this!


Or this much in a better structured view.
By the way, total spend is RM290- another hole in my purse.....

Dehydration

A recommendation to all of you who, unfortunately, like me have dry skin. This moisturizer really works to dehydrate your skin. I am wishing that Clinique will also come out with a solution for the body. Perhaps, a moisture surge body lotion? The best thing is it does not leave a sticky or oily feeling to your face. It is instead quite cooling and after a while, you would not even notice that you had applied anything onto your face. The thing is, I have always love Clinique products and with this, I'll even adore it more!
