Review : Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence SPF 50+ / PA+++


Remember I posted a picture of myself and Bebe a while ago and I was telling you how I love the sunblock I was using (click here to read) it is fresh, cooling and moisturizing besides it protects my skin against harmful sun rays! Well now I am going to reveal and review here!



It’s the new Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence SPF 50+ / PA+++ for face and body which recently launched in Malaysia.



Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence comes in a blue plastic tube. And I read that this sunblock consists of Biore’s pioneering technology i.e Aqua Micro Capsules where UV absorbing ingredients are locked in to provide strong, long lasting protection against UV rays yet with a surprisingly light and cool ‘Water-like’ fresh feeling. It is also formulated with hyaluronic acid and mix citrus essence (lemon, grapefruit & orange) as moisturising ingredients to leave skin looking healthy and hydrated.



Colour & Texture : Pale yellowish colour liquid with small yellow beads. These yellow beads are the Aqua Micro Capsules which has UV absorbing ingredients to give long lasting protection yet with cool ‘Water-like’ fresh feeling that is non sticky and non oily.

Scent : Fruity



Review : I always love Biore sunblock and this Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence SPF 50+ / PA+++ did not fail me either. Being water based, I absolutely love how the texture is really “watery” like how it is named and absorbs really fast on my skin. There is a slight cooling sensation when I applied it on my skin and the little yellow beads disappeared as I swipe the sunblock on my skin. Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence really works well protecting me from the sunrays with its SPF 50+ / PA+++ and in my recent trip to Cambodia I use this solely to try out the effectiveness. I am happy to report that I applied this sunblock under my makeup and I have no sunburn at all and my skin tone colour remains the same despite being under the sun for the whole day! I love how this sunblock did not make me feel greasy or sticky at all even though I was sweating heavily in Cambodia! And if you remembered my previous review on Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Mousse and Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Jelly where I do really like them, now with the Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence, I absolutely love them because it has the fresh citrus scent, nice watery texture, no greasy feeling and protects well against damaging UVA and UVB!


Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence SPF 50+ PA+++ (50g) is priced at RM32.90 and available now at all leading pharmacies, cosmetics and beauty retailers, supermarkets and hypermarkets.

Review : Maybelline New York Color Sensational Are You Red-dy



I am not really a red lipstick person until very recently I try the Maybelline New York Color Sensational lipsticks in Are You Red-dy and since then I am addicted with red lipstick! I felt that the right red makes a woman feel powerful & sexy!



Maybelline New York Color Sensational lipsticks has the most advanced formulations with on-trend expertise to create its most audacious and comprehensive lip color yet. It has a range of 16 shades that will give you the crispest, creamiest lip color yet!

With its Color Control System, Color Sensational contains a patented polymer that seals these crystal-pure pigments onto lips to create a flexible film that controls the movement of color on your lips. It promises no-feathering zone all day long so lip color stays strong and bold from AM to PM.



This lipstick is made in USA!!

Color Sensational’s Pigment Highlighting Technology – a blend of ultra-shiny oils – brings out the color brilliance of its pigments too, creating a color effect so striking, multi-dimensional and shiny! No more dull and flat color for your lips; instead embrace a lip color that gives you full coverage so intense and so brilliant.

Combine this with Color Sensational’s nourishing ingredients, and lips get the creamiest and softest treatment. Color Sensational contains honey nectar, emollient waxes and Vitamin E, all three natural ingredients known for their moisturising properties. Honey nectar, a good source of anti-oxidants and minerals, smoothens lip surface with its rich and luxurious texture. Emollient waxes melt on contact to provide lips with a protective barrier against tightness and dryness. Meanwhile, Vitamin E, the most popular anti-oxidant ingredient, is beneficial towards protecting lip’s lipid layer, preventing moisture loss.



I was given this colour Are You Red-dy to try No 625 to try.



Love this sensational , sexy and stunning RED !



It is opaque bright red, with a hint of a little bit of orange with soft shine.

The lipstick is very pigmented that it makes almost no difference whether it is one or two swipe.




Review
: It was easy to apply smoothly on my lips. I think this is a classic red that works on every skin tone colour. The colour is really rich and it lasts for a few good hours. I love how it is slighty shine and not overly too much. It is slightly drying and I usually apply a layer of lipbalm before applying this and it was great for the whole day. This is my favourite red lipstick for now and the name of the lipstick really matched with the colour itself!


Are You Red-dy to see how this lipstick brighten up my whole look?


Maybelline New York Color Sensational lipstick is sold at RM29.90 at all leading pharmacy.

Do you have any favourite red lipstick, do share with me if you have one!

Review : Freshkon Dezigner in Green & Pink Solitaire



Eyes often are said to be the window to our soul. So I believe different eye colours gives different feeling to people who see it. And wearing colour lenses nowadays is not only a trend but also allowing us to create our own signature style. I would say colour lenses allow us to Impress and Express ourselves freely, the way we wanted.




When I was given Freshkon Dezigner Cosmetic Colour Lenses to try out, I did not put on high expectation honestly… you know beauty often comes with a price! However I am glad to say that Freshkon Dezigner not only looked pretty in my eyes but it feels comfortable.




Freshkon Dezigner lenses have a hydrophilic surface and high water content level at 55 percent, allowing the eyes to “breathe” and ensuring optimum comfort for the wearer. For me, I can wear it up to 12 hours or more.

I wore this to my recent trip to Cambodia from morning 4am (to see sunrise) to night 11pm (after my night market shopping) and it feel comfortable on my eyes whole day with a few eye drop to clear the dusk from the road in Cambodia.




Base Curve of lenses – Median (i.e 8.6mm)

Diameter of lenses : 14.2mm ( which will gives a bit of the enlarging effect)




This Freshkon Dezigner range which features a multi-faceted diamond cut design that frame the iris and gives my eyes a sassy and goegeous look.





I have been wearing all my life (oh well since I am 12 years old). And sometimes I got bored with own eye colour (i.e brown) so I opted for colour lenses to express myself. I like to match my makeup and dress with the colour lenses I wear.


Here I am wearing Freshkon Dezigner in Green Solitaire. It looked stunning, the cut is beautiful and unique and does not looked too fake. It complement perfectly with my green eyes makeup.


Look into my eyes~

GREEN one of my favourite colours often said to give people a sense of sultry and sexy look. Here I am wearing Freshkon Dezigner in Green Solitaire. It looked stunning, the cut is beautiful and unique and does not looked too fake. It complement perfectly with my green eyes makeup.

Note : Featured in this look is Freshkon Dezigner in Green Solitaire. And makeup used are -Lunasol #03 Gentle Variation eye palette from Lunasol Auroral Purification 2010 Collection , Majolica Majorca King Lash Mascara, Empro's Diamond Black Eyeliner and Kate eyebrow pencil.




The Freshkon Dezigner lenses looked so natural on my eyes, as if my own eyes colour.




Freshkon Dezigner comes in 4 stunning shade – Pink, Aqua, Orange and Green. Pink Solitaire gives the “angelic princess” look, Aqua Solitaire gives a cool and freshness look, Orange Solitaire gives a warm and approachable look and Green a sultry and sexy look.




I cannot resist pink contact lenses so I went to buy Pink Solitaire as well, very beautiful makes my eyes looked dolly and bright! Looked so princess! I would next buy other colours to try too because it is so fun to match around!



Freskon Dezigner lenses are available at all major optical retailers at RM65 per box/pair that can last for a month. Currently Freshkon Dezigner having nationwide promotion of Buy 2 Free 1 box.

I love my first piece of accessory from Whitesoot! Versatile and affordable

Whitesoot (http://whitesoot.blogspot.com/) is an online fashion store (female apparel) based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Whitesoot brings in high-street clothing at a fraction of the price. They have new arrivals every Tuesday, Thursday and Sunday at 8PM and they mail all their shoppers' parcels the very next working day :) Thanks to Whitesoot’s recent initiative – Whitesoot Bloggers Circle, allows bloggers like me to receive complimentary clothing/accessories from Whitesoot every month ;) We don't have to be very famous as they just need to have consistent updates and a certain amount of readership. So if you are interested to be apart of Whitesoot Bloggrs Circle, just email them at shopwhitesoot@gmail.com for more information.



So last month, I redeemed a piece of accessory from Whitesoot which I have been eye-ing for a while which is the Twisted Multi Strand Beaded Necklace.



And I am glad to report the item I received looked the same like in the website, which is very, very, very important when comes to online shopping. I hate when the item don't come as display/description in the website.



This necklace comes in twisted beaded chains in gold plate, light silver and dark silver.



It also comes with adjustable lenght and lobster clasp fastening. And suprisingly it is quite light despite it looked like one, so yay I could wear this all day long!


And guess what this Twisted Multi Strand Beaded Necklace is priced at RM39 only. And I like how they are open for feedback and comment, we could email them anytime!

Note : At the moment, this necklace is sold out,not sure if there is a restock.



Each girl definitely will own a little black dress and this is my favourite little black dress in lace from LaLu (a Singaporean brand). And I really like how this necklace stands out so well because of the beautiful colour combination :)


Although it's not an expensive piece of accessory but it does looked classy ! And don't you think it looked perfectly with my red lipstick?

p/s: I was wearing Maybeline Liptick Are You Red-Dy in 625



It is hard to find accessory that will match my leopard print dress from Dorothy Perkins and I was glad this necklace complement this dress very well. Whitesoot Twisted Multi Strand Beaded Necklace is really versatile and affordable to own!


Whitesoot giving Fashion round the clock !

Apart from accessories, there are of course a lot of pretty dress, blouse, pants and shorts to choose from however at this moment they do not carry any plus size clothing. However the good news is that I was told that they are looking to manufacture larger sizes towards the year end, so horray for me!
