Haul+Review: Beauty Care Edition I

Hey guys! So over the couple of months, I have garner quite a bit of haul that I thought it be way better to just split this post into three parts. With that said, we're gonna start of with some beauty care: ARCONA RASPBERRY CLARIFYING BAR  I ran out of a few stuff hence why I decided I be open to the market of something else I haven't tried. Aside from going as natural as possible in my routine, I like to go into stores with an aim and while I have fairly okay skin, I still had a bunch of tiny zits on my forehead that weren't bad or anything but they were always in the way for my dream of a smooth textured face as weird as that was worded. So with that in mind and yet again plunging into a discussion with one lady at Sephora, she recommended Arcona. A low key skincare brand that did things natural and with advance tech. This bar is cold-pressed so while using it, your skin is getting the goodies it offers as effectively as possible. Not going to lie though;...

Beauty Haul+Review

Fulfilling my promise to you guys about some haul I got yeah! I decided to kind of introduce some of the things I got from all my previous trips slowly since using them from several months to a couple years now, I can finally attest to their use and hence I will put in bit by bit so bear with me. With that said lets start with the beginning of my current skincare routine: Fresh Rose Cleansing Foam Starting with the cleansing of the face, I'm not going to lie but ever since Sephora open up here in KK, I have made quite a few splurges since I finished my cleanser and toner that I usually buy from my facialist/esthetician. However her stuff are uber expensive and not really in stores anywhere else. Hence determined to find a cheaper alternative, I was more than excited to venture into what the sales associates (Fun fact: they are actually called "cast members" and the sales floor are the "stage") would recommend. I always went for as natural as I could aff...

Tune Favourites

Hey guys. Just a quick correction from my previous post, its not mist, its a haze. Thanks to my ever loving brother for pointing it out. If there is something wrong with my post for me to check out, really feel free to comment on it! So as I said, lately its been a very laidback weather here and these are the songs that carried me through it. I might not be able to list all but just click here and you can find the rest on my SoundCloud. It's been awhile since the last Tune Favourite  and that means I've been listening a ton. 1. "Here" by Alessia Cara (Lucian Remix) This has been basically the soundtrack for my August and even now I can't but be so floored by this singer's voice. I discovered her from a youtuber I follow and never regretted the decision to subscribe to her Vevo channel. While the original is the stuff, I love how it was remix here and every decision made to create it is so spot on. Do check out her other singles like "I...

College Looks

In collaboration with my girl, Denise, from Down The Yellow Brick  , we're a college theme posts so look out for them. We are revving to blog and we hope you enjoy them despite being so off the radar due to life and school. But let's get started. To be specific, I take A-level Science here in Kota Kinabalu and we have to wear a school shirt as a uniform. Aside from that though their is very free rein on pants and clothes. Its not really college per say but its still considered Pre-University so I still understand what kind of clothes you needed to get through the semester. Though the outfits you see here aren't my daily wear to school but I got some approvals from friends who go to college and managed to style up some looks based on general dress codes you may face at your college or university. Hence it's all very doable. This would be my first outfit post so I'm a complete amateur at this and at being the model for once as I don't feel I am at all photogen...

TV Guilty: The Blacklist

Hello peeps! As you all know how I am a TV show lover, I'm just starting out this new section of reviewing my fav TV shows called "TV Guilty". While you can expect that I can't give professional critique, I will illustrate this part of the posting in such a way that I will dissect out all the good points of this series the way I learned to from my Lit teacher. So let's get to it. Story Summary and Concept The story starts off with Raymond Reddington, a notorious criminal aka "The Concierge of Crime" aka one of FBI's Top Ten Most Wanted Fugitives, surrenders to the FBI himself. He offers a deal with them to aid them to catch dangerous, cold and the most interesting criminals that even they aren't even aware exist. Of course in exchange for complete immunity from prosecution and that he only communicates with rookie profiler Elizabeth Keen. Raymond who was once a former government agent went off the grid one night 20 years ago and came...

On Beauty

  So to kick off with introducing you guys the major haul I got from the US and some other finds from home, I decided to start with the beauty bundle I manage to put together. I'm no professional so I'm simply writing this review from my own opinion and experience. Here goes: ARGANICARE Hair Serum   I've recently am into caring my hair as I never paid much attention to it but since I started playing around with it, I learned on the way that it needs some love if its gonna go through a couple heat hair wands. Despite my initial intent of treating it to some coconut oil, I find that I never have enough coconut oil for my hair and if I do, I most likely forgot. This serum that I got from Ross was price down to around $7 from its original $26. What really caught my attention was that it had certified Argan Oil for that much needed vitamin E and anti-oxidant and Shea butter. Its objective is to keep hair from looking dull and be that instant repair for roots to tips....
