passion swells up!

Due to harsh exposure of sun's UVA and UVB, our skin surface could be suffering from dryness, sunburn, pigmentations, spots, freckles, uneven skin colour tone, premature aging (wrinkled) and too much worst, increase the risk of skin cancer. Suncreens would be essential to be use on daily basis to keep your skin protected, to avoid the mentioned problems as well as to maintain healthy looking face without or less flaws. The key is to always wear sunscreen.

I start using sunscreen diligently 4 years ago, because I can't stand the hot sun exposure burning through my cheeks! I have tan skin tone and casually have minor breakouts too. If I go on unprotected, most probably it could worsen my skin condition. But before I bought my first purchase, I've heard rumors saying that applying sunscreen especially on problematic skin, it could make your face problems worst. I was not sure how much of it were true? So ignoring the rumors, I gambled my way to see if I'm lucky.


Even VS Angel Candice Swanepoel said, "Sun protection is really important for me. My face really burns and it's not cute! My facialist gives me a really strong sunscreen, and I wear that every day, whether it's sunny or not. (Source: Vouge,UK via ONTD). There are wide range of sunscreen products in the market, I go for Biore's Perfect Face Milk SPF50 PA+++ because it's Japan product. (I love everything comes from Japan!).

( Actually this is my nth purchase. )

Happy birthday Ninomiya Kazunari! ♥

The affectionate looks in his eyes that I can't resist! ♥
Congratulations and happy 31st birthday! You are 31, for real? xD
I LOVE YOU. Although I love you, somehow you fall into 2nd place now.
But as you said in TVGP, "LOVE doesn't just mean romance, it can be interpreted to mean many different things."

In the past few months, I've grown interest in make up. I watch make up tutorial on Youtubes for various make up events and techniques. However, the make up brush set they use are sort 'out-of-range-price-from-my-own-pocket' so I've been checking several sites searching for 'likely-match-my-pocket' set.

Then, I found Natta Cosme (a link from my junior's FB) and check them out. There are several make up brush set for starter namely CERRO QREEN which sold at different varieties of prices and colours to choose from - pink, yellow, blue, purple, black.


I personally chose this one! YELLOW!
For beginner like me, 6 pieces basic brushes at affordable price just like this one is totally OK. This was my first purchased from NattaCosme but they gave good service as they responded to my request pretty quick, my order was processed the next working day and shipped the next day with tracking number. When it first arrived, I opened the box and saw the make up case with the make up brush set inside was nicely packed with bubble wrap. The downfall, just that I don't like Skynet service :/

( What I like about it? )

I was really surprised when I got an email from HiShop yesterday! I received my very first invitation (and they addressed me, "Dear Beauty Ambassador" and I love the sound of it!) to attend an exclusive beauty product launch early next month. As usual for any new product launching, there will be introduction and demonstration of the products. Lucky thing for each attendees, they will be given the products for free for review.

( Sounds attractive? Yes. )

This is my first time doing brief product review. Totally a different path/ genre than my expertise :P

Anyway, here is the mystery gift-box I received from HiShop! Thanks once again to the beauty/hosting blogger, archereverdeen and HiShop ♥ I get 3 different Korea brand masks and 3 discount vouchers (Haven't used it. Its expired anyway, by now). Actually, it was my first time entering beauty-bloggers-giveaway-thing and luckily I won on my very first attempt!

This would be my first time to try other than products that I usually buy at beauty/drugstore. Let make a simple review of the product, shall we?


Dr. Post NXT Eye Patch and Bidanpo Mediental Masks

List of Free-gift Masks.
[Light Blue: Dr. Post NXT Bio Gel Total Eye Patch]
'All-In-One Eye Total Solution' to control eye area troubles. It will improves wrinkles and frown, provide firming, vitalizing, soothing, cooling and moisturizing effects.

[Green: Bidanpo Mediental Hwa-Chim TCA Mediental Clinic Mask]
It's for trouble care / pore care. It has TCA (Trouble Care A-peeling). This mask will prevents skin troubles and strengthens skin immunity.

[Orange: Bidanpo Mediental Taeban-Yakchim Mediental Clinic Mask]
It's for moisturizing and rejuvenating the skin. This mask will help the skin recover from old-damaged skin, to provide the skin with nutrition as well as to promote skin renewal.

Among these 3 products, for eye patch it works as eye patch. However, what I found interesting is
[Orange] and [Green] masks. They are totally different in term of benefits, but both will give additional bonus to the skin which it will promote whitening of the skin and lessen the wrinkles appearance. The second thing is, mature-bamboo as used in these masks will give effect of smooth and supple skin. Lastly, it has 'Mask Base Ampule' or 'Mask Booster' which to be applied before you use the mask, so your skin can absorb the goodness of the masks at maximum!

I would say, it totally worth the money and your skin!
