My Royal Treatment by L'oreal Professionnel at Shawn Cutler

 A while ago, I was invited by the kind people in L'oreal to enjoy the Royal Treatment by L'oreal Professionnel at Shawn Cutler. And I make an appointment to do it in the afternoon just before the Nuffnang Asia Pacific Blog Awards 2011 night , so that I walked out from the salon like a QUEEN for the night!

I went there around noon on and seems like their business is doing quite well.

I was in love with their interior design and decoration.
So classy !


Speaking of the Royal Treatment, it consists of the new L'Oreal Professionel Serie Nature Macadamia range (which was released in Oct 2011) and Mythic Oil

L'Oreal Professionel Serie Nature Macadamia range is a hydrating & reconstructing range for dry hair made from the rare Hawaii Macadamia Nut Oil.

I also love the fact that L'oreal Serie Nature because it is 100% natural
FREE FROM
Sulfate
Paraben
Silicon
Colourants
Fragrance

Generally sulfate are the cleansing agents used in shampoos were said to pose a threat in increasing female cancers such as breast cancer and so if I have a choice I will not use stuffs that have sulfate. And here in the Riche Macadamia shampoo, the sulfates were replaced by gentler cleansing agents of plant origin: sodium methyl cocoyl taurate and sodium lauroyl glutamate. These cleaning agent also can create a rich foam and gently cleanse the hair while respecting the hair’s lipidic film. This goes the same for paraben & silicon.

Solomon my hair stylist who was pampering me that day started shampooing my hair with L'Oreal Professionel Serie Nature Macadamia shampoo. He then shared tips that for best result of doing home treatment at home with L'Oreal Professionel Serie Nature Macadamia mask would be wrapping the hair with hot towel after applying the mask. So it allows better absorption of the nutriens.

My thought on L'Oreal Professionel Serie Nature Macadamia shampoo and mask

I like how my hair feel light after shampooing and smell so goof from the macadamia goodness. And I was quite surprise that even after applying L'Oreal Professionel Serie Nature Macadamia mask, my hair still feel light eventhough I can feel that my hair smoother and easy to comb through.

After the mask, Solomon applied a pump of L'oreal Professional Mythic Oil on towel drying hair for 2 minutes before blow dry to protect hair cuticle from the heat.

Ways how to do it

Solomon decided to curl my hair and doll me up a bit for the grand night. After he was done, he applied another drop of Mythic Oil for finishing, to give a shine and enhance layering of the hair.

The final result of my royal treatment after 2 hours! Love the sexy curls and my hair was actually bouncy and light even after applying 2 pumps of Mystic Oil. I was really impressed!

My Thoughts on Mythic Oil

Suprisingly this hair oil is really light and absorb really well. I felt as if my hair does not have anything on, as it is not oily at all! Made from the extract of Avacado & Grape seed oil it deeply nourish my hair, provide me the shine and give anti-frizz protection all day long!

Me & Solomon

Me & Shawn aka the Boss of the salon :)

It was great that I gotta to bring home all the 3 products to use at home and now I can confirm that I could also achieve salon result by using this affordable products at home! Super loving it especially the Mythic Oil !

L'Oreal Professionel Serie Nature Macadamia shampoo 250ml - RM57

Review : Cres Wellness Body Regenerist Fruitti Spa treatment and 1st trial promo!

How often you give yourself a good treat to your body?

I know going for facial treatment is common and important to most woman BUT what about body treatment ?

I do know that our faces are more important but so do our body !

DEFINTELY we do not want to receive unfavorable comments when skimpy dresses, short pants, bikini or even elegant bare-back and high-split gowns are cladded on right ?

These exclamations in aghast are usually due to these unsightly views:

1． Blackhead and acne covered back body
2． Dark and uneven skin tone of the arm pits, inner thighs and lower buttock lines
3． New and old scars of insect bites and tears
4． Thick and dull dead skin cells clamouring all over the feets, heels, knees and elbows
5． Dry, flaky, wrinkled and cracked skin especially on the limbs

Cres Wellness introduced Body Regenerist Fruitti Spa specially for women who clamour for perfection, top to toe, inside out. It is designed for those courageous women who refuse to hide anymore, who resolve to face it, repair it and change it! It is meant for those sophisticated women who want to flaunt proudly and confidently.

And I was glad to be invited to try out this latest Body Regenerist Fruitti Spa!

Formulated using botanical ingredients such as fruits and flowers, coupled with natural sea salt and yoghurt. The Body Regenerist Fruitti Spa serves to provide both a relaxing pampering session and result showing body skin regeneration therapy at the same time. The dead skin cells are scrubbed off using fruits and flower enriched natural marine sea salt. The aromatic fruit extract and flower scents are de-stressing in nature and nourish the skin with vitamins and nutrients. The luxurious fruitti body masque and the lavish fruitti bubble bath ensure an effective infiltration of essence to the inner skin.

Promise Immediate result:
1. Skin is visibly whiter
2. Flaws and bites mark are lighter
3. Dark skin tone is fairer
4. Skin is new , young and elastic
5. Skin is incredibly smooth and radiant

Let's see what happened!



I was visited Cres Wellness last month at their Gardens outlet to try out this treatment. I love the location of this place, it's quiet and exclusive!

After I filled up the necessary forms , I was lead to my room.



Love the beautiful painting on the walls while walking to my room.

This is the room where I will be having my Body Regenerist Fruitti Spa treatment.



On the bed, I was given a set of stuff to use. I gotta change and put on disposable panties and shower cap before wrapping myself in towel. FYI this is a body treatment, one is expected to take off all their clothes and jewellery so that the theraphist could perform her job.



I am lying on the bed, waiting for my theraphist.

My theraphist walked in and explained what she is going to do and then start to work her way.

Then I was awaked by the smell of the fruity scrub. The scrub contains natural marine sea salt, luscious rose petals and pineapple puree... (no wonder smell so good!). I was told this scrub will remove dead skin cells of my body & leaving my body baby-smooth.

Review : Laneige Styling Romantic Eye Palette from Laneige’s Styling Romantic Fall/Winter Makeup Collection

Laneige Styling Romantic collection was created in conjuction with the holiday season 2011. Hence do expect the eyeshadows colour to be glittery as it's usually party party party time during year end!

It comes with 2 applicators. And I do notice one of the applicator has a bigger "head" and I thought will be great to use to apply on all over the eyelid but the sponge applicator don't really seems to pick up the powder that well.. And I'm always happy to use my fingers to apply & blend because I find it faster and the blending looks better!

The 3 colours in this Laneige Styling Romantic Eye Palette are Pearly Beige, Shimmer Cocoa and Deep Brown.

Instruction to use from Laneige's website

1. Essence Type : Creamy type shadow that can be spread over the entire eye lid to enhance the shadow colors, and reapplied on the upper eye for highlighting final pearl-touch.

2. Shimmer Type : Base color & indistinctive pearlescent shadow that allows natural color gradation.

3. Powder Type : Can draw an eye line and naturally connect to the underline.

The colours are quite sheer and need a few layers to application to build up the colours. As you can see all the colours are very glittery.

As the colours are not super pigmented, I use it to create natural makeup. Took me a little bit more time to apply because colours dont really show up.

My complete looked with the Laneige Styling Romantic Eye Palette , Laneige Styling Romatic Lip Duo in Coral Beige and Laneige Styling Romantic Blusher #2!

I guess this eyeshadow will be great for people who would wanted light & natural makeup to go for work. And to make it a night look, I guess mascara and thick eyeliner would do the trick.

Laneige Styling Romantic Eye Palette are selling at Laneige's counter for RM80

Review : Laneige Styling Romantic Blusher in #2

Laneige Styling Romantic Blusher is something I been looking forward to try in Laneige’s Styling Romantic Fall/Winter Makeup Collection after I fell in love with their Laneige Lip Styling Duo in Coral Beige .

Let me recap about this collection. This Laneige's Fall/Winter Makeup collection boasts on pastel romantic colour and has uniquely designed packaging that combines modern art and the Baroque art.

The packaging - I like how the blusher brush is hidden nicely in the lower compartment.

I'm happy that it's a wide brush compare to the usual small blusher brush which makes it practical to carry them around and use it. The brush is so soft enough that it dont feel pokey on my face and I think I can live with this if I gotta bring this for travelling.

This is Laneige Styling Romantic Blusher #2. As you can see the top 2 colours are softer colour without shimmer and the bottom two are the shimmers. So basically can control how much shimmer you want when you pick up the powder. Also this blusher #2 can be used to accentuate my cheekbones too!

The print on the blusher is insipred by Baroque art, very beautifully done but after a few more swipe it will be gone >.<

Swatch. One swipe on my the back of my hand.

You can see the powder is very fine and it's very shimmering .

Just with one or two swipes, it can gives the even peach healthy glow that I needed. And makes it looked like my cheeks has just been sun-kissed ! Perfect to match it with my Laneige Lip Styling Duo in Coral Beige .

Laneige Styling Romantic Blusher comes in 2 colours, one is in peach (as featured above) another in pink/purple. This is selling at RM90 at all Laneige counter nationwide.

I miss Lake Toba, Medan!

Well I just came back from Medan a while ago, I really miss the beautiful lake view and how breezy the weather is!

One of my favourite group photo, creatively pose with friends at Palace of Simalungun King in Medan, where the 12th king stayed with his 10 wives together in this palace!

Counting down ...another 15 days or so, I will be going to Bali :D
