How to be a natural Lenglui when umm... you're not born with it....

Hohohohoho... lets take a peak into an honest life of lengluis who were not born with lenglui hair, skin, body and features, but are still the everyday beautiful hot chicks we see today. I figured, most of us lengluis have discovered the aid to beauty with the help of the unnatural's of hair re-bonding, permanent hair removal, body shaping undergarments ... and a whole lot more. So if you're the sort-a blur-cased lenglui, this post will describe all of them fake-it pro....

Introducing the top 5 procedures/items that lets us go hiking in the jungle and swimming in the sea with NO make-up and still look super BEAUTIFUL! (disclaimer - I don't suppose the points below are considered make-up... hahahahah....)

• Hair Re-bonding
• Almost every Asian lenglui knows that frizzy hair is a no-go
• Hair re-bonding apparently wreaks the hair structure but hey.... you're gonna look like you have a hair worth a million bucks minus the blow drying, hair spray and hair mousse
• Even when you're miles away from a conditioner, hair dryer or straightening iron, your hair will still  look glossy and smooth flowing... huhuhuhu...
• Requires minimal effort of maintenance
• Tip: Go to a pro stylist so you needn't worry about ending up with a flat top.. LOL

• Permanent Hair Removal
• If you're hairy that is...
• Waxing is a traumatic experience
• Hair epilation leaves us ingrown hair and red bums all over (and don't forget the pain)
• Ever felt the pokey-itchy feel after a few days of missing your shave period? Eeeeeek...
• Permanent hair removal - to a smooth nice skin even after a few days out camping in the mountains

• Semi-permanent eye-liner and lip gloss tattoo
• Now, I have no right to comment on this because I haven't been through one (If your features look great with no make up, skip this then baby)
• Remember, go to a reputable pro... these days beauty tattoos have advanced loads so you needn't worry about ending up with greenish looking eyelids when you're 50
• After accompanying a really close friend to these procedures... whoaaaaa... the result is really pretty
• She complains of course of the painful PAIN.... (duh... no pain no gain)
• But the aftermath... uh-huh... its like you have naturally dark defined eyes and glossy kissable lips
• After 6 hours of road trip? you still have great fresh looking eyes and its like the all natural lip gloss never left your lips

• Lasik Eye laser treatment
• Okay, this one's a point you could debate on...
• This is a costly procedure and IT'S scary!!! No matter what lenglui's who has been through them say.... Never believe anyone who says there is NO PAIN.... spoken from a true lenglui friend
• Lol.... But I havent been through one so, ummm..... I'd opt for Iris Enlarging Contact lenses.... Hey, if I had Lasik... then it defeats the purpose of having pretty anime eyes from a beauty contact lenses no?
• BUT.... imagine having clear vision all the time and skip having to look dorky in front of the hot guy in a football night party

• Body Shaping Undergarments
• Okay, so it'd be mighty uncomfortable to go jungle trekking and skydiving in this
• But, if you've been a good girl and wear them on a regular basis, your body is bound to conform a little to the shape of the garments
• So even when you're on a field trip without them... your body will play nice and stay that way... until of course the next time you decide that exercise is a better body shaper... lol...

One thing I figured all lengluis know by now.... Nice skin is the mother of all natural beauty... Nothing can help you get a great skin but yourself. A good diet of lots of fresh fruits, veggie and fish, good skincare products and lots of rest... that's the best effort a lenglui can do for better looking skin...

Grosses time of the month to Happier Month??

Cloth Pads to a happier Lenglui?

(for the sake of our readers, I'm adding this note - stay away from this post if you find topics on women's menstruation is just emm... not your cup of tea)

Okieee.... I feel weird blogging this... but.... wth.... Several months ago... I decided that wearing disposable sanitary pads were too much of a hassle (even though... they are err... disposables and are suppose to make your life easier). But-but... it feels gross every time I throw away a used pad... I feel.... emm... yuck... and it really feels like I'm contributing loads to the amount of one of the grossest rubbish on planet earth - used sanitary pads.

The problem:

• sudden enlightenment to go green for the sake of our beloved planet
• feeling errr... gross every time I throw away a used pad
• sudden retail urge for online stuff... hahahahaaaa...
  
• I know this is trivial to some of you but.... don't you feel a little conscious when you go to the loo to change and you can't help making those rustling plastic noises when removing the adhesive tape off the disposable pad? Its like you're trying to be as quiet as possible in the toilet cubicle so the other person in the toilet won't know that its your time of the month... this is especially obvious when you're using your office toilet and everybody knows everybody in a company... hahahahhahahaa...
• you go in a toilet to change and you realise... shit** there are no sanitary disposal bins... now what are you gonna do?? wrap the pad in lotsa tissue and walk out casually throwing that into the closest waste basket?
• feel that disposable pads are mighty uncomfortable and reminds you of your period most of the time?
• emm... moon cups and tampons are not really your thing?

So say "hello baby" to cloth pads!

Okay... now here's the thing about cloth pads.. Its really hard to find a nice classy yet cute looking one. Why bother>>? Hey... if you're going to be washing them and drying them out on your cloths line in the open... I think you WILL BOTHER. lol.... I'm not going to do a complete review on the cloth pad of my choice - snexy cloth pads (after a whole week of research, the japanese and korean cloth pads are way-too-cute too but they come with a nice price tag)

So here's to cloth pads:

• the first thing you will notice when you do the switch - whoaaaaa... this is actually comfortable.... lol
  
• apparently women who wears cloth pads as compared to disposable pads are happier women during that time of the month... geez... google sure have lotsa interesting info
• no more rustling plastic sound from the toilet cubicle, just snap off and snap on
• used pads can be folded into a cute pouch-like-hankie with a snap of the button, then just keep it in a waterproof cute baggie till you get home to wash it
• downside of this is that.... you wouldn't want to go travel with them... heck... no way, I'm hanging cloth pads in hotel room toilets to dry... the cleaners will be wondering what the hell are those
• another downside of this... like disposables, you will not be able to go swimming or do water sports in this. Opt for tampons instead when you got no option... hahahhahaa....
  
• Snexy Pads - They come in really nice colours and are not too kiddie-looking so when you hang them out to dry... they look kinda cute
• Snexy Pads - The founder of Snexy is really nice. And, I think (from their site) you get a full refund if you're not satisfied with her products. No... I'm not advertising for Snexy... there are tonnes of nicer quality cloth pads out there... but for the price with shipping, this is the best online alternative I've got... hehehehee....
  
• Snexy Pads - if you've got a heavy flow... I suggest you ask Liz (the founder and creator of Snexy to make you better leak proof pads... the pads are not really leak proof for heavy flows)
• try Googling for cloth pads from Australia, Japan and Korea... they are really pretty....
  
• you may feel a little queezy washing your used pads at the start (cos you'll see lotsa red-flowing blood), but, trust me... after that... its cool...
  
• blood stains are really difficult to get rid off unless you have a good/suitable detergent. (I struggled when I first made the switch to cloth pads) Try looking for a special women's blood stain removal detergent like one from Daiso (RM5 Japanese shop) Makes it so much easier to remove stains from the pads after use... After that... removal of blood stains? Piece of cake! lol...
  

Hmm... a happier time of the month? YEAH... feels pretty much like it!

How to con me into buying a beauty product! (lol)

Come on... we're not that difficult to con right?

Okay... Female shoppers... they are an easy bunch to con! Seriously... I mean... Is this a sexist remark or... am I just wrong to label... most shopaholics... as WOMEN? Duh.....

Now... after years of being naughty and deciding that every little thing that looks good, feels good and makes one look good owning it should indeed be mine.. I think I've grown to understand that... a little research before doing that purchase goes a long.... long.... long.... way.

Now, what is it about that product that make us itch to try it out?

• PACKAGING AND VISUAL BROCHURES! Now, I'll say it once and over and over again! A really good, pretty, classy, convincing packaging spells disaster for us women.. That pretty little thing looks like its just so worth the buy! (Even... if it might not work) But-but... how do you know it won't work till you've tried it?! Maybe it WILL work!
• ADVERTS! Yeah... Adverts are a sign that tells us... this product is actually well-known. People has actually tried it. At least its a genuine sign that this may be safe to use and it's not some maybe-cancer-causing-long-term-effect of a lousy product that we're going to put on our faces or bodies
• VERY CONVINCING LAB TESTS AND TESTIMONIALS - why.... not everyone's a risk taker. I mean... what are the chances that you'll be splurging on something that no one else you know have ever tried it before? So yeah... testimonials and clinical proves are a boost to all the cons in the world.
• VERY VISUAL ADVERTS! hahahahha... okay... maybe this only applies to me.. Have you watched the links to adverts from my blogs on SlimFit Spa and the Lavaya Chest Enhancing Underwear? Yeah... go watch those... You'll see what I mean... lol...
• SALES REP WHO ARE TOO PRETTY TO BE REAL WHO SAYS THEY OWE THEIR BEAUTY TO THE PRODUCT THEY ARE TRYING TO SELL YOU - Yeah... this occasionally works. As long as the sales rep is a really down-to-earth non-snob ultra-convincing person.. you're so gonna fall to her hypnotic persuasion. Hell.. maybe she's too pretty thanks to the product and... she just wants to share her ever gratitude to a product that gave her that beauty. Maybe I could be that pretty to if I tried it. LOL...
• FEEL GOOD STUFF - Products that are easy to buy are products that feels good when you use it. I mean... if you're going to have to use it as part of your beauty regime, should they at least feel good on you?
• PRODUCTS THAT SHOWS RESULTS - INSTANTLY! See? We're all impatient people. No one wants to wait for years to see the effect of a product. If it shows good stuff the minute you lay it on your body, that should be good right??? right...........

Sigh... its never easy to part with money... but... when there's good stuff there... I mean.... who could resist a trade with printed paper $$$ and a chunk of pretty bottled stuff. After all... $$$ is really just made of paper huh? LOL...

How not to get conned buying some beauty device!!

**patience** I'll be getting to this
