p/s: Will be doing a review on the mascara when I got time!

Anytime shopping with Doorstep!

Nowadays online shopping is so common for beauty stuffs, electronics, clothing and etc BUT what about Grocery ??

I believe most of us either has no time to go to the market or hate to go to the market.

Most of the time, the wet market (i.e pasar) is always wet, smelly and dirty..!

Honestly, I love cooking but no time to go market to buy fresh ingredients! ,

Even if I got time to go on weekends, always have trouble looking for parking and the need to wake up very early to get the freshest ingredients.

So sometimes I go to the supermarket, but then again parking and long queue in paying are still a big problem!!!

So recently someone recommended me Doorstep, quite unbelievable how simple is it !

I was told Doorstep gives you the luxury of doing your grocery shopping anytime, anywhere without the agony of being stuck in traffic, throwing away precious time waiting in queues, going through the endless battle of looking for parking and the torment of lugging those heavy grocery bags.

Everything your ordered (whether big or small, heavy or light) will be at your doorstep after a few clicks on your computer's mouse!

So easy like 1, 2 and 3!

Some more same day delivery service wooo!!

Currently they offering FREE delivery !!

Let me see how convenient is it ...

The items that are available in this website are divided in different categories for easy searching.

Got fresh fruits to be ordered...



And also got vegetables to ordered !

Doorstep has its very own refrigerating facility to keep everything fresh.



Not only that !! Got fresh cut vegetables available too, save time and effort!!!

Ready to be used anytime !



There are wide selection of meat, from poultry to seafood ...



And what is best is, if you are vegetarian... Worry not, they have mock meat!!



They also makes personal care products available at Doorstep!



Beauty care products ~



Just toothbrush, they already have wide selection to cater to different people need



Not just that, they have varieties of items under Household products... From prayer items to insecticide!


p/s: Need to buy laundry detergent urgently as was running low..



And since I made the purchase just before Chinese New year, they have the CNY hampers




And I ordered some goods for CNY to bring back home :)

Got my favourite mini tangerine ... yum !

I would say everything under one roof!!!


So after I clicked on what I wanted, I proceed to sign up as member and get my login name and password..



After that, I am allowed to choose which slots of time for my item to be delivered to me ! I choose 4 to 6pm and put a note that item to be delivered by 5pm.



Actually at the time I make this purchase it was 2.30am , so I was wondering if the goods would be delivered on the next day ...

And now got Free Delivery Promotion .. !


I am doing final checking before I confirmed ordered!

Okay method of paying - either cash on delivery or secured payment method by credit/debit card or internet banking.

I chose cash on delivery ....

The very next morning I received a call from Doorstep to confirm my order , address and delivery time !! Very efficient !!

At 4.30pm , 2 man rang my doorbell ! One of the man who hand carried my stuffs to me and looked so delighted!

Wah they are here already !

I checked, paid the cash and signed the bill!

DONE!

Yes everything I wanted are on my doorstep , so easy !

Honestly, the fruits are very fresh and the mini tangerine that I bought to bring home for CNY are so sweet ! My friends who came to my house for CNY even asked me where I bought it!!! And I of course recommended them Doorstep!

I will definitely continue using this service as it is convenient and now I can shop online and pay for my sister grocery and send to her doorstep and she need not walk or take taxi to go already ! And I can buy some household items for my parents too , just pay and send to their doorstep, save them the troubles too!!

I can say BYE BYE to traffic jam, car park problems and long queue now with DOORSTEP!

Max Factor Make-up Demonstration by Winnie Loo & Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara review

Max Factor was officially launched in Malaysia in October last year and been around our market for a few months.. And when I was invited to go to Max Factor Make-up Demonstration by Winnie Loo, am excited to see the how the products are being used to transform one's look.

Did I mentioned Winnie Loo, the Chief Creative Director of Acutabove was selected to be the official make-up artist for Max Factor. I guess many of us heard about her magic hands, how she transforms someone's hair. So let's see how Winnie is going to do magic on someone's face with cosmetics instead of a pair of scissors !

Winnie selected a normal looking lady that has the Asian feature for this makeover demonstration

And of course she used the Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara which is one of the star product of Max Factor!

Within 10 minutes, she is done with the makeover!

Winnie has beautifully enhanced the model's look by focusing more on her single eyelid

And the model's eyes now appear to be more awake and bigger!

And I of course joined the fun to have my makeover too !

I like how my eyes looked here, very simple but beautifully done.


And since I got a tube of Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara in black my goodie bag and I decided to do a mini review here :)



Look at how fat is this tube of Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara compared to my finger!



A super huge brush with small bristles

A compulsory before pic - I curled my eyelashes here

With one layer of Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara - very easy to apply for my top eyelashes.. just with one swipe...

I waited around 10 seconds before I could apply 2nd layer of mascara. Must say the mascara is a bit difficult to dry up. However it does gives me more length after 2nd coating of mascara

The eyelashes starting to clump together at the 3rd application. Must be me, did not wait the mascara to totally dry up before the 3rd layer of coating.

Note : Because the brush is huge, it is quite difficult to apply the lower lash without staining my face.

The side view , I think the mascara gives quite a good result in term of length and not much volume

Pros : Lengthening effect, managed to keep my curled eyelashes for the whole day, have very good Waterproof & Smudge-proof effect once its dried.

Cons : Difficult to remove it even with makeup remover, the formula is not quick dry. Difficult to apply on lower eyelashes, the tube is not travel friendly

Max Factor False Lash Effect Mascara is selling at RM66 for 13.1ml at Max Factor's counter in Isetan, Parksons and Metrojaya .

I am back in action!

I just came back yesterday from Seoul, Korea and it was shivering cold there!!!

However still love the weather there, compare to the hot & humid weather we have it here!

I made some beauty purchase and will be posting up here soon!

Stay tune!

Beauty News : Kanebo Face-Up Powder- Milano Collection 2011

This is Kanebo limited edition Face-Up Powder from Milano Collection 2011 which has a very luxury packaging and promises to give moisturizing silky finish on top of our foundation.

Compact type velvet-smooth face powder for adding finishing touches to makeup, creates fine delicate texture and translucent skin. The bright beige powder leaves a clear and natural finish over any type of foundation. The formulation also includes UV block (SPH14.PA++) to enable use throughout the year.

Year 2011- motifs - " Angel of Unity" & "Daisy"

Every year, Kanebo comes out with new Milano collection using different motifs as the packaging design which has different meanings. The main motif for Year 2011 is " Angel of Unity". An angel flying high toward a new era, signify a future full of hope. The second motif is "Daisy", the national flower of Italy, symbolizing "Peace" and "Hope". These two motifs are created to symbolize our wish to advance toward a future full of hope with a new mindset and through mutual help.

Further improvements in moisturizing ingredients

The moisturizing ingredients in FACE-UP POWDER have been further improved. Besides Royal Jelly Extract, a moisturizer used in earlier editions, the new powder also includes the Daisy Extract, which is also used as a part of design motif for the case and powder's pressed design. The moisture-retention effects of these ingredients give skin prone to dryness with a non-cakey, velvety finish.

History of Kanebo FACE-UP POWDER

The steady popularity of the MILANO COLLECTION over the years can be credited to the outstanding designs. Since the origin release in 1991, the annual editions have been fashioned in new variations of the lofty goddess and angels motif. MILANO COLLECTION still claims the spotlight with high added value and changing designs every year.

Kanebo Limited Edition Face-Up powder from the Milano Collection 2011 (24g) is selling at counter now for RM248 at Kanebo counter in Isetan KLCC. Limited quantities available

p/s: When I posted a picture of this collection earlier this month, my friend Jacinta a beauty kaki, told me that she bought their previous collection said that this Face Powder gives a 3D final touch and in her own words this will turn to us into goddess of beauty... So I am kinda convince and cant wait to get my hands to this when I am back to KL next week :) Hehe.. anyway I reserved one for myself , the packaging is too beautiful to resist :D
