Bioglo ClearPore Deep Cleansing Mask

Posted on By sweet surrender 30 Comments on Bioglo ClearPore Deep Cleansing Mask

What do you learn today? The simplest advise in life is always the hardest to follow.

Warning: This post might make you lost your appetite ;p View at your own risk!

Bought Bioglo ClearPore Deep Cleansing Mask two months back from Cosway.


Apply it after washing your face. Wait till it dries and peel it off. OMG! SO PAINFUL! It’s really painful! While peeling it, you can feel that every single thing from your pores were pulled out. If you have many facial hair, it’s advisable not to use it ;p I had to dampen it a bit with my toner to ease the peeling.

How effective? Quite effective I should say.

GROSS! DISGUSTING!

I saw this and I just couldn’t believe it. These are not from my nose but my cheeks! In fact I have lots of blackheads on my cheeks near to the nose and I have no idea how to get rid of them. I don’t go to do facial too. After using it, the blackhead did reduce dramatically but not much came out now. I guess they are all too deep inside and the mask couldn’t reach it anymore, all those that it could reach had been pull out already.

I took this photo with my camera’s macro mode, it’s not very clear due to the lighting and I didn’t do any setting to my camera, just point and shoot. This is the best I could get. In fact those blur parts actually got lots of them as well. GROSS eh?

Lip Ice Fruity

Posted on By sweet surrender 4 Comments on Lip Ice Fruity

First of all, this is not paid! How nice if I’m paid for it ;P

I’ve been an avid user of Lip Ice ever since I’m in form one. It’s a must-have for me. There are many other lip balms/lip products by Mentholathum and this is the best. I had used severals (Water, Color Gloss, Sheer Color) before and they were all really not doing any good for my lips. I have to take extra care of my lips because this is the best asset on my face! Hahahaha…


I only use Lip Ice Fruity. This is the only one that can keep my lip soft and supple all day long even after I “ate” it and none left on my lips. Despite that, my lips can still stay supple for hours. It’s also great for chapped lips. Good thing it has SPF15 too. Usually one tube like this can last me for half year plus. I used it everyday, few times a day. The least is 3 times a day, the most would be 5-6 times a day when I’m out and about. I used it before I go to bed, before I go out, after my shower, after I brush my teeth and it’s also serve as base for lipgloss, lipstick or other coloured lip balm application. I seldom use lipstick, hate the cosmetic smell, only use them like maybe once or twice a year.

It has been proven that I cannot live without it few weeks back when I ran out of it and was waiting for my sis to buy it from Sasa in KL because it’s cheaper there, cheaper by RM1 to 2 if I’m not mistaken. I know I can get it easily in Kuching but since my sis was going there, might as well ask her to get it. Just one week plus of no Lip Ice Fruity I won’t die one *LOL* Whenever I go to KL I will surely buy one from Sasa because of the price else it will be at any Watson or Guardian in Kuching. I’m not the kind that stock up thing. I only buy enough for use.

For that one week plus, I was trying to survive with her lipbalm from UK, my Lip Ice Sheer Color(been using this for more than 10 years to add colour to my Lip Ice Fruity), and her Revlon Lipgloss, all of them got no SPF, it’s really taking a tool on my lips. It was really torturing. They only dried up my lips and started to peel few hours after I used them even though I didn’t “eat” them.

In conclusion, Lip Ice Fruity is the best so far.

Shoes Shopping @ VISS

Posted on By sweet surrender 5 Comments on Shoes Shopping @ VISS

Because some people never do their jobs, we are the one that got the blame when something’s wrong! When it’s going fine, they even dared to claim the credits! It’s not that we never delegate or put in any trust but we were let down again and again and at the end we had to do it ourselves! DAMN IT! You call that team work?!?!?

Few weeks back when the whole of Malaysia was having mega sales, I went to tHe Spring to shop for shoes with my sister. We went into every single shops that sell shoes including Parkson(found some there but no size -.-) and at the end we ended up buying at VISS. I wanted to buy something for my Penang trip because I don’t have a proper footware for travelling after my sandals gave up on me in the last trip to KL.

I was looking for something not so flat, not so high that can let me walk, walk, walk without much problem when travelling, and practical enough for everyday used. Sport shoes is out because I hate bringing socks along when travelling, I hate wearing socks and also I don’t like my feet to be fully wrapped inside for more than 12 hours without much ventilation. Since I’m not going anywhere with cold weather so I won’t bother getting a sport shoes. Summore I only wear my sport shoes like once in a blue moon, why waste such money right? I would rather invest in something I will wear everyday.

I was thinking of getting something that covers the toes this time such as ballerina pump instead of the usual toes peeping sandals. I tried many and they were too hard or too flat for my liking, I need a bit of height, I’m short! I am extremely afraid of blisters therefore I never buy pumps or heels that are fully wrapped. I’ve been a strappy stiletto heels and sandals wearer for more than 10 years! ;p

It took me ages to look for one since months back all over Kuching *LOL* Like I said before, I am very particular when buying footwares ;p I don’t want to spend more than RM40 for a footware anymore especially something like sandals. All my expensive footwares gave up on me earlier than the cheap ones either because of inferior quality(branded ones summore!) or accident. Sigh… As if I’m jinxed that I cannot own any expensive shoes.

Finally at VISS, I found one ballerina pumps. It’s not hard like all those I had tried before and it’s quite cute though it’s plain and simple. Also it didn’t feel like I’m not wearing anything and suddenly I feel so flat and short hahaha… With 10% discount, it’s below RM40! Fit my budget and something that my feet like.

Here you go after yakking so much…

We bought two shoes! My sis bought a pair of strappy stiletto heel with 50% discount and only cost her about RM30+.


Left: My sis’ purchase. Fits me very well ;p

Right: My first ever ballerina pump that is less than 2 and half inches high. I’m wearing it and *HORROR* my vains were showing like no body business and I had to edit this photo *LOL* I didn’t see them when I tried it at the shop due to the lighting and because I’m wearing long pants -.- That’s another reason why I don’t want to wear something too flat, the flatter it is, the worst it will look. So how? I managed to find a way to reduce the vains from showing by inserting Party Feet inside!

I haven’t officially wear it yet, I still very much prefer slip and go sandals *LOL* It’s not easy to wear with the two straps there as I’m always in a rush to go out 😉

I just found out that there’s new magic mug available in Heartbeat now. It’s much better than the previous one because it’s printed with various patterns instead of just plain black. If you look carefully at the plain black magic mug, you can see the hidden messages/pictures on the mug but with patterns printed ones, it’s not that noticeable because people would just think that the cup is just printed with patterns. It will be a very good surprise gift for your loved ones.
