Kinohimitsu J'pan Bust drink up - The New Fab?

Back to Boobs.... hahahahhahahha



Update 26th January 2010
  • Just realized there are quite a few comments on this post ... I know - I know... I haven't been updating this post in ages. But no matter how busy (yeah... work kinda sucks at a very depressing stressful point right now)... regardless, I'm gonna post a real short update here for this post readers! :p
  • After 5 boxes of this... I'm gonna say... come on girls... don't waste your money unless you plan to take this drink for-e-ver. You know every month we women go through ovulation... and our hormones sorta bounces around... and thats when your boobs reaches its peak size too. Same goes for the theory in this drink - puereria mirifica. Yeah... after14 days the boob drink claims to make a difference. After 28 days... claims to show results. Uh-huh... I'll just have to say this... I've seen bigger days with the monthly cycle... lol....
  • BUT.... this drink also contains 500mg collagen per bottle. So I guess its a kill 2 birds with a stone thingi. Yeah.. your body can only absorb so much collagen in a day. So yeah.. boobs will definitely feel firmer and more tender within consumption period. Nice.
  • In conclusion: If 5 boxes isn't wow-ing me... I don't think it'll wow any of you readers too... :p And the boob adventure goes on.... :p

Update 8th December 2009
  • Geez... so much for succumbing to temptation after much research on how safe it is to consume this... muahahaha... Lets see some blog on this soon.... sigh... going on the crazy boob adventure again....

You're probably wondering if I'd ever blog on this. Its new stuff in KL baby... but... pueraria mirifica has long been known to be used by native Thai women as a herb to increase bust size (I googled okay?) So emm... what's this thing with F-Cup cookies and boob drinks? lol.... And you're probably wondering why is sugar-cupcakes not crazy over these stuff? I mean duh..... getting C cup is LIKE a perfect dream-come-true!! Hahahhahaha.... Okay-okay... I'll continue this when I'm free... (--)" Now I've gotta get back to work... lol....

Butt issues for sports?? - Nike Perfect Fit -

A fit for all bums....

See the vid on the link below by Nike...
My-my... do they understand women... Go watch it... hahahhahahhaaa...

Yeah... so, working out has kind of been a part of life since yoga...
But you know... its really a hassle to look great WHILE working out. Since you're going down the sweaty tortures route... (Yeah, I'm not exactly a fan of exercise lol) If you do it in the privacy of your own home... yeah... wearing your PJs is going to be OK. But... getting tortured and all sweaty strutting about in awkward poses in a public gym, is no-go.

Okay, I think its always no probs to look normal in a gym. No, I don't think its necessary to wear make up while working out. Geez, plain looking is fine. But walking around with a tight-fitting pants on your kookier than normal butt.... uh-huh.... think of fleshy folds of buns or the never-been-there ass?

I guess if you have a nice firm-toned ass like umm... Jessica Alba, you shouldn't be reading this post now... go away... hahahhahahahha....

Okay... the trick is to look for the perfect (there's no prefect... trust me... hahahaha) pants that gives the illusion of a passable butt.... So umm... what's this post about?

No, I'm not really promoting Nike Perfect Fit Workout Capris... I think they are bloody-hell overpriced for just sweating out actually. But hey, that didn't stop me from getting one... hahhahaha... But, also, this just shows how fitness brands are well aware of little trivial stuff women are so conscious of. I think, this does camouflage your less-than-perfect butt to at least looking plain normal. If you can actually get a pants that do this... cooooooool..........

  • low wider waist
  • thicker material at the butt area
  • comfortable fit
  • classic cut designs (no fancy dodgy cuts)
  • pricey

Looking good while working out = Motivation to actually get our bum off the couch

Beauty on a BUDGET

.... seriously... is that possible?


Sometimes I think... we tend to splurge too much on ourselves (I know-I know... guilty as said)... But what happens if the sky decides to come crashing down and.... $$$$ would be the last thing on our mind let alone in or pocket...


Fuuuuuuu... that'd be the start of nightmare days for lengluis in the world..... no? Hey.... not every lenglui you see has that much cash to splurge. You know... life goes on with or without the extra cash.... And not everyone can afford to be a little princess each time paycheck comes... Living a happy life isn't just about superficial beauty... But... heck... I'm getting off topic here.... so now.... how would we budget ourselves and still remain a lenglui..? How do we get through life without that must-have skincare set??


  • Petroleum Jelly (Eg; Vaseline)

They are a really CHEAP super all-in-one! To soften rough skin areas, lib balm, and even wrinkly parts

  • Ultralight Therapy Oil (Eg; Skinlabs Therapy Oil)
You don't need super-expensive moisturisers... Get a simple therapy oil that works on sensitive skin and voila... you may now skip the moisturisers. Works on scars and flaky skin too!

  • Lotsa veggies and fruits (you know... fresh fruits and veggie diet costs way less than meaty and greasy junks)

Yeah... that super expensive meal at the restaurant could have costs way less if you ate super healthy... I don't mean being on a diet... but... fresh fruits and veggies do costs way less and since you're on a budget, I think its a good time to get some antioxidants in and a natural detox for your body

  • Water-water-water
Each time you order a drink, its gonna cost you on every meal. Ever seen the lady with a water bottle in her handbag everywhere she goes? Or the lenglui who just asks for plain warm water rather than ordering a drink? Yeah... you can start calculating how much you're gonna save by just ordering plain water or carrying a bottle of water around with you... Besides, plain water is hydrating, thirst quenching and.... GOOD FOR YOU!

  • Any simple face wash (plain glycerin with virgin coconut oil will do just fine as well)
Face wash needn't be super high quality. As long as you get a good make-up remover, all you need is a simple face wash. But.... always check the ingredients... Some super cheap face wash dumps in a whole load of chemicals in just to sound good. Remember, the key is simplicity. The less chemical compound... the better it is. Au nature l as they say.

  • Only buy clothes/shoes when they are ON SALE
Duh.... you may think... so when the SALE is on... you end up with the same clothes as everyone else? Besides... its hard to get the right sizes that fit in a SALE... Wrong! You'll look good in whatever if your skin, hair and body already looks HOT!
  • Get one single nice classy bag and STICK WITH IT
The problem with us ladies is that... Our bags tend to wear-off fast. And.... everything else on the shelves is gonna look better than your bag... lol.... So we'll end up with a load of bags that emmm... doesn't justify the means of the person owning them. Heck... you're only gonna carry one bag at a time... Du-uuh..... SO, get a good one (yeah... it might cos a little more... or maybe way----more...) Make sure it matches everything else... and will last you through the years. And, STICK WITH IT. Don't be unfaithful............ Be nostalgic! Hahahhahahha...

  • Blackhead Tool
Okay... so you've decided to save money by skipping facial. Hmmm.... thats fine since I haven't been to any facial in years! And... my face is coping just fine. Have your own facial. They don't have to cost a bomb. Besides... all that gunk that goes on your face? They're gonna stay on the outside anyways. You may swear that they actually do something, but... heck... its just cos they FEEL GOOD! And it feels good to have someone do your face for you... Come on... all you need is a simple blackhead tool... and hygiene!

  • Tweezers

pic credit to http://www.adiscountbeauty.com/


I almost missed this out! Sheesh... these are one of the most important tool you'll need and they are really cheap so yeah... cheap and mighty useful. Though be warned... never ever over-pluck. Under-plucking is fine. But over-plucking, is gonna make you look far older than you really are. Whether its used for tweezing your eyebrows (see my post on eyebrow perfection), your teeny weeny barely there side mustache or that sudden single hair growth on inconvenient places.... pain factor? 100% OUCH!! lol....

  • Toothpaste
So now... what about zits? You do need to get a proper anti-ZIT gel or cream right? Think about it... has any of those special pimple gel made your zits vanish overnight? None of mine does... The zit just crinkled and dried out a little... But thats about it. Try applying some toothpaste on your zit. See that its gonna work the same as Clearasil or OXY... lol... Google up for more info... Though emmm... if you've got really bad skin... see below:


REMINDER NOTE:

If you've got ultra-horribly sensitive skin... please. You can try budgeting on any other stuff but do STICK TO YOUR REGULAR SKINCARE that helps (whatever brand that may be, don't budget on it). Nothing beats trying to budget and switching skincare on your already sensitive skin. If you've got your skin in check... don't worry... you'll look good in anything... yes... even the super-cheap-o blouse or bag you're carrying. Know what...? When you look good, you look good in anything.

Panasonic EH-2473 - Nano Tech Steamer

Revitalizes and improves resilience of skin


Conclusion:
  • Its like having a mini facial at home (definitely a keeper!)
  • Feels good every time I use it
  • Don't see any improvement on acne (THIS IS NOT FOR CURING ACNE)
  • Skin feels supple (Remember to apply milk lotion to lock in the moisture after use of steamer)
  • Oh yeah, in case you're wondering where the hell can you find distilled water for use with the facial steamer... You can get bottled distilled water at any local supermarket (probably costing less than RM1 for a 1 liter bottle)
  • Worthwhile investment for women with dry or aging skin! Huhuhuh...

Update 03rd Dec 2009:
I've been insanely-INSANELY busy with work. Crazy project's taking up all my blogging time and I've been working late for the past week now.... Would really like to update this soon... FYI I LOVE the steamer! lol.... but note that this does not cure acne skin (maybe helps a little by regulating facial oil).... But if you're reaching your thirties or already pass there, this is definitely a good investment. Young readers.... don't go splurge on this... save your cash for something else k?


Update 19th Oct 2009:

I know - I know.... I AM GUILTY! But-but for the sake of our blog readers.... (lol okay, maybe not only that...) >>>>> I just splurged on this (but after loads of google research)... kekeke...

Will be reviewing this very soon... Get ready all the for critics and raves baby!

Ohhh noooooooooooooooooooooooo........ Remember my blog on a wishlist item Panasonic EH-2424...? So now... they decided to come up with the improved version of that.... And this... is soooooo very very tempting...........................

The features:
  • World's first platinum hot/cold steamer with platinum components
  • Hot Steam/ Cool micro mist to revitalize skin
  • Revitalizes and improves resilience of skin
  • 3 Hot/Cold Automatic Beauty Program
    • Clear Skin Course: Reduces dark cirlcles and dullness of skin
    • Tension/ Elasticity Course: Increase elasticity of skin
    • Sebum Care Course: Restores sebum balance of skin
  • AC Power

Okay... CALM DOWN... For a silly steamer, this costs a bomb!! So maybe if I Googled hard enough... I'd get a better bargain for this... But still.... a steamer??

You would probably react just the same if you've read these bloggers comment on the steamer... Okay-okay... they are in Jap and Chinese... But hey... there's Google translate remember??? hahahhahahhaa........
Know what I think.....? I think we need to stay away from adverts!!! Crazy.... crazy... women!

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)



http://snuggbaby.com/2009/02/19/snexy-is-here/


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!


Sea Salt Facial Wash - good for for overly sensitive skin?

Allison's All Natural Sea Salt Therapy - Facial Wash



I wasn't planning on blogging on this cos its just a facial wash and knowing me, I'll try plentiful brandnames that looks safe or convincing but won't necessarily blog on them 'cos I'm emm... busy with work. lol... But... after 2 good days.. I think... this is actually worth a review.

When I was going nuts over Culpepper's aromatherapy range, the young Culpepper's promoter persuaded me to try out a facial wash which was quite a bargain. She wasn't that concern if I wanted to get the essential oils (fyi, they costs way more than the facial wash...), instead, she seemed genuinely interested with trying to get rid of my emm Thai Food (which was really seafood in the exquisite Thai dishes) allergy acne on my skin.

She mentioned a fellow promoter with terrible breakout skin who was practically given no option by their manager to try out the facial wash. Apparently... it worked wonders for her fellow promoter friend's skin. Big reduction in acne.. and.. no more dilated pores... So I thought... what the heck... its not like the facial wash costs a bomb even though it sounds too good to be true. I know - I know... I'm so easily convinced!! hahahahhahaaaa...

But heck... think about it... the girl wasn't even bothered if I wanted to buy al the real pricey aromatheraphy stuff even though she was earning on commission.(trying to justify buying yet another facial wash.. lol) So yeah.. I added it to my shopping cart... No harm trying out something au-naturel.. Scanned the ingredients...

Ingredients:
organic virgin coconut oil, vitamin e oil, lavender (the promoter added this in), sea salt, vegetable glycerin

Looks pretty safe... And... the promoter let me try it out there and then... muahahaha

  • Its not your usual foamy lathery facial wash
  • I Googled and could not find anything on this.... dodgy...
  • After washing your skin may still feel a little slippery but that's okay
  • No taut feeling on skin, but doesn't feel special
  • After 2 days of use, I conclude that... my acne sorta calmed down... No kidding.. this seemingly lousy (lousy cos the packaging kinda sucks) facial wash calms down my acne... okay, so its not lousy anymore
  • Get this: Salt is actually a natural antiseptic for skin... but over using it my dry-out and irritate your skin. I guess thats why the acne kinda calmed down, and, the nice ingredients in the wash probably contributed to soothing the skin
  • Conclusion: weird... I like it better than the Dermalogica medibac cleanser, cos... it feels natural (with no minty fresh feel) and costs way less with the current promo. lol

Skin Labs Therapy Oil - for scarring, stretch marks, uneven pigmented skin and dehydrated skin

A made-in-india oil with pretty nice quality and totally worth the price

http://www.bigsale.com.my/images/user/7/Adv/2159/skins-lab-sale.jpg

Its actually pretty easy to catch a women's eye in a shopping outlet. Just put a huge promo sign with something impressively simple like a free-to-try sample with an advert of a beautiful lady 's face to top it off.

Now thats how I came about to purchase this: SkinLabs Therapy Oil (RM39.90 at all Guardian Pharmacy Outlets in KL)

Being used to seeing all sorta saloon brands and huge brand names like Clarins promoting their lotus oil and other skin stuff alike... I thought hey! There's the new rage in therapy oil for the skin... lol... Besides... I was getting kind of bored using lotions... The thought of my dehydrated skin from being lazy of slapping on gunks onto my skin.... uggh... I need retail therapy... lol

Okay... I didn't just purchase this for the sake of purchasing. The thing is.. I actually sampled the oil on my hands first.
  • nice refined oil
  • hardly greasy
  • hypoallergenic
  • very light naturally fragranced from lavender oil
  • easily absorbs into the skin
So hey... this is pretty nice.
Now I'm already half bottle away. I use this on my legs, elbows, knees, hands and face! Yes, my very breakout prone face! And guess what... I didn't breakout... (given the fact that my skin has now reached a minimally satisfying condition... If you have breakout-prone face... don't risk this!!)

I didn't see any radical changes to my skin... But... it does feel good to use as a replacement for body lotion. And besides, a few drops goes a long way.... If you still like your body lotion, by all means, stick to it. I just got a little adventurous... lol...

Verdict:
  • Scarring? Emm.. I'm not sure... I haven't tried it on any major scars
  • Stretch marks? Emm... I don't see any stretch marks on my body apart from the butt yet... Maybe I'll go try it on the butt... lol
  • Worth to try? Yes if you've ran out of body lotion and decided that you need the adventure

Korean Sunseeds Natural Grain Powder - Where all pretty Korean Complexion comes from...

Claims to do good to your hair, skin.. body, mind and soul?



Can't believe its been almost 3 months since I've updated this blog... Oh noooo... I'm so sorry... Been crazy busy with the new job and stuff... You know how it gets... (--)"

From the telie... you see tonnes of beautiful korean chicks strutting around in dramas and movies. But really... if you've met a korean, you'd know... those pretty faces are just korean celebs... Common korean chicks are just like us... Normal plain looking women... However, most korean ladies I've met had one thing in common. Beautiful skin! So here goes... my quest for a clearer complexion...

Okay... I finished up 2 jar of this in about 2 months. Can't say for sure that it helped cleared up my skin or made my hair pretty... But yeah... I had acne on my neck for like 2 months and they weren't going anywhere no matter what I consumed or did. But 2 months later... they sorta cleared up... Probably its my own body immune kicking in... lol... So I'm not sure if Sunseeds actually helped with the acne thingi. But damn... it sure tastes good... lol... (btw.. individual preference on the taste...)

So yeah... the reason I'm updating this today is cos' I just bought another 2 jar from Jusco... its on promotion now... and it tastes and feel good (^^)" I'm such a sucker for this sorta stuff... lol...

Verdict:
  • Feels healthy cos then I wouldn't skip breakfast
  • Hey... its fiber that we need to help clear our intestines and thats where all your allergy and bad skin stems from
  • Tastes good... like some nice cereal drink... Don't know if its worth the price for a cereal drink... lol... but hey... I like it... so... why not?
  • This will not give you immediate result so don't get your hopes up high..
  • Claims to work wonders on skin and hair... Checkout their before-after pics (at the promo booth)... I'm not going to directly agree on that but... heck... if you've got at least 2 months and some money to spare... why not...? Fiber is always a good thing... (of course... don't overindulge in anything... too much of a good stuff is gonna be bad for you)
