So I guess it's about time for me to fix that and write about things that makes me happy for a change. I'm obsess with anything related to beauty; cosmetic, skincare and yes, beauty tools too! My collection may not be as big these days, I've learned the hard way to be a minimalist in this pandemic and keep only things that I can't live without.</div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Speaking of beauty tools, I normally stay away from natural hair bristles. Not because I'm a pets advocate, it's actually due to the lack of information about the origins of each brushes. Brands like Morphe, Sigma or Zoeva rarely disclose the type of animal hair they used for their range. I don't want to wake up one day and realize the brushes that I used religiously were made from boars! So I kind of stick with synthetic brushes and beauty blenders instead.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Another reason why I never really purchase natural hair brushes is because they're quite expensive and delicate. You need to properly use, store and clean each of them to make sure they will last for years. I do feel tempted everytime I watch Alicia @ Kinkysweat talk about her makeup brush collection but it always dies down whenever I take a look at the price... Unbeknown to me, my sister already bought me the Koyudo Kakishibuzome makeup brush set for my birthday last year and to say I'm excited is definitely understatement, I finally get my first taste of Fude!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimr7cxkD355XNSc_0HFdFWod9nqr18d1bzimgFTbEruN8lue963_FvyVcZ8WNRIYEpsZ8foHORddJ9d5zAtHrilJvTR_YTt64xtSw0IH6EOeDAcL5nd-zvQ60rPKCkaFwXgdut/s2048/image1.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEimr7cxkD355XNSc_0HFdFWod9nqr18d1bzimgFTbEruN8lue963_FvyVcZ8WNRIYEpsZ8foHORddJ9d5zAtHrilJvTR_YTt64xtSw0IH6EOeDAcL5nd-zvQ60rPKCkaFwXgdut/w640-h480/image1.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you're not familiar with Fude, it's a term used by makeup enthusiast for Japanese makeup brushes; the home to traditionally handmade, high quality brushes. Based in Kumano, the city produces highly sought after brushes in the world with over 1000 artisans who used techniques refined over centuries. Everything from how to make ergonomic handles, leaving bristles uncut for a natural application, tightly applied ferrules for the perfectly formed unit to the brush practicality and appearance were created with great precision in 30 steps, mostly by hands.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">There are 3 main elements of Fude; the bristles, handle and ferrule. Makeup brushes produced in Kumano normally used goat, squirrel or horse hair because of their ability to hold powder and color pigment for a more natural application. Besides that, it's also very soft and blending out beautifully compared to synthetic brushes. Natural hair bristles can be divided in 2 different categories; dyed and undyed hair. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">It's all comes down to your preference and the type of products you regularly used; dyed hair for example suits powder products better meanwhile undyed hair work nicely with liquid, cream, satin and shimmer products. Moving on to the handle, it's typically made from Japanese wood and finally the ferrule; the part that attached the bristles and handle were usually made from metals such as brass, copper or aluminum.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqBHenIx7QTU4L356J76ZRSJHwf5QjWVBIedzynWRfd0eGiJbikaFQtxi_k8sLRRwU_hJenBKxhNPphHhZyV4ZOxjtWVYkq9ZCcl9_kuuzq5RLZWQeRMM6EyWEhHmvxemQIAO9/s2048/image2.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqBHenIx7QTU4L356J76ZRSJHwf5QjWVBIedzynWRfd0eGiJbikaFQtxi_k8sLRRwU_hJenBKxhNPphHhZyV4ZOxjtWVYkq9ZCcl9_kuuzq5RLZWQeRMM6EyWEhHmvxemQIAO9/w640-h480/image2.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Koyudo Kakishibuzome Makeup Brush Set - 6 pieces</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>[USD304.00]</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>★★★</b><b>★</b><b>☆</b></div></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Let's talk about the star of the show, shall we? According to Fude Beauty website; the Koyudo Kakishibuzome series are made with high quality Saikoho goat hair bristles. The tips are dyed with persimmon, a traditional dyeing technique in Japan passed down since the Heian period (794 – 1185). Known as Kakishibu, this method of dyeing imbues the bristles with a dusky hue as well as antibacterial properties. The handles are made from Mizume Zakura (cherry blossom wood), revered for its natural elegance and warmth. This set consists of 3 face brushes, 3 eyeshadow brushes, a pouch and a box to keep your brushes in good condition.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Since I'm practically a virgin when it comes to Fude, I'm not going to go in-depth in terms of the brush performance or quality but focusing more into the presentation and experience instead. First thing first, the packaging. The Paulownia box certainly gives this set a luxurious, vintage mood that matched the brushes perfectly. You can tell how beautiful the craftmanship of the brushes going to be from the moment you unbox this set. It's definitely consistent with the Koyudo Kakishibuzome marketing narrative; classic, intricate and exquisite. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The brush itself on the other hand is truly a work of art. The Kakishibu dying technique on the bristles really elevate the whole look and with the handcrafted wooden handle that compliments it, I have nothing but love for the makeup brush set. Not only aesthetically pleasing, the Saikoho goat hair bristles is also very soft on the skin and a delight to use. The only downside of this Koyudo Kakishibuzome set that I could think of is probably the price but if you take into account the quality and workmanship that you're getting, I would say it's worth every penny!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_lgdNiZvETU3UY3D2xL2tCF-Ta1USk_KwjGtEarH8XiUfi2h65l9ATIhESTp_MKo9bM3IPgTLsYsyUuSahSvCZqqI3Z9ItzDonFrSuW7yDNbEsqerVoNbMeLluD2oLNEI90F0/s2048/image3.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi_lgdNiZvETU3UY3D2xL2tCF-Ta1USk_KwjGtEarH8XiUfi2h65l9ATIhESTp_MKo9bM3IPgTLsYsyUuSahSvCZqqI3Z9ItzDonFrSuW7yDNbEsqerVoNbMeLluD2oLNEI90F0/w640-h480/image3.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Koyudo Kakishibuzome Powder Brush 01 (Round-Flat)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>[USD86.00]</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>★★★</b><b>★</b><b>★</b></div></div></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">This is obviously the largest brush in this collection and quickly becomes my favorite. I love using it to apply loose powder to set my makeup and adding finishing touches to my look with Hourglass Ambient Lighting Powder. The hair is extremely soft and fluffy, very airy and feathery; perfect to softly buff the powder all over your face without moving the foundation underneath. I won't recommend this brush for bronzer and blusher application though due to it's size but if you prefer a more disperse approach, this could work for that as well.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA2SWQmuq-NVSlsDgGhxzpuFHaSDaURgAV92tgFRKn-JvyFJO6xG5xF0GeoxUGmoWsBprlgKItFa5kRc0kgBihSZccanS-8JXC9_3HqS6XCiX2oCIDD5zR8_2ypKGJS-Ox4YrX/s2048/image4.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiA2SWQmuq-NVSlsDgGhxzpuFHaSDaURgAV92tgFRKn-JvyFJO6xG5xF0GeoxUGmoWsBprlgKItFa5kRc0kgBihSZccanS-8JXC9_3HqS6XCiX2oCIDD5zR8_2ypKGJS-Ox4YrX/w640-h480/image4.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Koyudo Kakishibuzome Powder Brush 02 (Round)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>[USD86.00]</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>★★★</b><b>★</b><b>★</b></div></div></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">The Powder Brush 02 on the other hand is slightly smaller, a little bit denser and easier to maneuvered compared to Powder Brush 01. I usually pick this brush to use with my bronzer or blusher because it gives a beautiful smooth and diffuse look. It's pretty versatile too, you can use it to work with powder foundation, translucent powder or even highlighter. If directional movement application is what you're aiming for, you'll definitely fall for this brush. In fact, if I have to choose a brush in this range, I'll go for this one in a heartbeat!</div></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvjsGQPZYaaKK737tH5BY96N_QwQZB3duXjI8ra_ATIqXh9b313BynKntv_4JinNn3AsPuJzsLn8N1FYFJfBJklWiB4b3BxGdhLmNXti3ywheAXCvrZ1Z9RpSAt0kkfmo6JWyi/s2048/image5.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvjsGQPZYaaKK737tH5BY96N_QwQZB3duXjI8ra_ATIqXh9b313BynKntv_4JinNn3AsPuJzsLn8N1FYFJfBJklWiB4b3BxGdhLmNXti3ywheAXCvrZ1Z9RpSAt0kkfmo6JWyi/w640-h480/image5.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Koyudo Kakishibuzome Cheek Brush 03</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>[USD50.00]</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>★★★</b><b>★</b><b>★</b></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Unlike those two earlier brushes, the Cheek Brush 03 is significantly compact and travel friendly. This brush can fit comfortably in any regular makeup pouch and will work wonderfully for targeted and precise powder application. The bristles size fit the apple of my cheeks perfectly, making it so much effortless to apply blushers and highlighters. It's small enough to set your under eyes with and of course, you can even using it for contouring. What can I say; all the face brushes in this collection are flexible, you can always find new ways to play with it!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7XD7XuoVUREVyubhItU_GgbAX5jwbQsNjVI8PEYlOpD3l71at34I20s-5GkGX19xl58_OWrEu-hDxzXVP31JK-KZr01Fbp_-L_52JhAlnCkhbJ-V927cVTIDkfSLiucFYKshC/w640-h480/image6.jpeg" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Koyudo Kakishibuzome Eyeshadow Brush 04 (Large)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>[USD24.00]</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>★★★</b><b>☆</b><b>☆</b></div></div><div><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Moving on to the Eyeshadow Brush 04 which is the biggest eye brush in this line. It's slightly stiffer but still a versatile brush nevertheless. It works best for one and done kind of eye look; you can use packing motion and softly blend the shade afterward. You can also use it for applying concealer or primer all over your lids and even use it for nose shading. The end result might not be as seamless as blending brush but with time and practice, you can achieve your desired eye look with this eyeshadow brush.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1oUhDMmrQt7HTfojyWzlOd9Qg79d2f3vxsdkIP07PVBsszL4FluCrljsIYf4GfF3YamEmveBeJE2grO5hMpzDhz8gi3X5ebiYxS98eJFM8biSWVs_r6OtqZ8fa_pXdT7LoyLB/s2048/image7.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1oUhDMmrQt7HTfojyWzlOd9Qg79d2f3vxsdkIP07PVBsszL4FluCrljsIYf4GfF3YamEmveBeJE2grO5hMpzDhz8gi3X5ebiYxS98eJFM8biSWVs_r6OtqZ8fa_pXdT7LoyLB/w640-h480/image7.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Koyudo Kakishibuzome Eyeshadow Brush 05 (Small)</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>[USD20.00]</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>★★★</b><b>☆</b><b>☆</b></div></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Just like the Eyeshadow Brush 04, this brush is a little difficult to maneuver. The hair is quite rigid and didn't have much give so it took me multiple attempt to get the color look diffused. Despite all that, one of the great thing about this brush, it's really good at picking up shimmer shades and applying it on the lids. You can use patting motion to pack the color and get maximum payoff. The smaller size also allowed it to be a nice brush for browbone application. In another word, if you're looking for a classic eye brush, this one is definitely made for you. </div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOQJ2bgoeO-mk3_ie66hnJECARQNbVtzZxsU5euu37gshwSnQ22rSzgPMck3gFyr_dpx9PkFH6h5PPe9YklP0JNUpghVp5UEwPi5lVEX8UNhdfroalalSRE8L4GhdGaRG3mXMu/s2048/image8.jpeg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1536" data-original-width="2048" height="480" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiOQJ2bgoeO-mk3_ie66hnJECARQNbVtzZxsU5euu37gshwSnQ22rSzgPMck3gFyr_dpx9PkFH6h5PPe9YklP0JNUpghVp5UEwPi5lVEX8UNhdfroalalSRE8L4GhdGaRG3mXMu/w640-h480/image8.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Koyudo Kakishibuzome Eyeliner Brush 06</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>[USD18.00]</b></div><div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>★★★</b><b>★</b><b>★</b></div></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><br /></b></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Last but not the least is the Eyeliner Brush 06. It's pretty unique in my opinion. Not thin enough to be an eyeliner brush but work wonders to smoke out or smudge the upper and bottom lashline area. I also use it to intensify the shade on my outer V, highlighting the inner V and when I need a precise application on the lids. Small yet mighty, this brush really delivered in terms of giving my delicate eyes the attention it needs in a soft and smooth way. This might sounds weird though, I think this brush can be re-purpose as a lip brush too since it's quite firm and sturdy.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Before I forget, the caring instruction leaflet provided in this set strongly suggest you to clean the brushes every two months to maintain the integrity of the natural hair bristles. For someone who enjoy playing with colors, I religiously wash my brush every week so I can keep changing my looks every time the mood hits me. In order to do that with Fude, I'm using a microfiber towel to spot cleaning my brush. I find that it's gentle enough, extremely fast and highly effective to exchange shade in between usage rather than washing it.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">If you're thinking of indulging yourself with Fude, Koyudo Kakishibuzome series is a great way to start. Since the brushes are multifaceted and can be purchase separately, you have the option to only get the brushes that you can fully utilize instead of the whole set. I heard that Koyudo will increase their price very soon so if you're still debating whether to buy it or not before, now is the perfect time to do so!

<div style="text-align: justify;">It's hard to believe that we'll be leaving 2020 in less than 24 hours... We bid farewell to 2019 with so much hopes and dreams but 2020 definitely teach us to be more thankful and learn to appreciate all the things that we used to take for granted before. I see people around me deeply affected from this health crisis and there's nothing more I wish than a safe and healthy environment for all of us to live in. </div><span><a name='more'></a></span><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Despite everything, I guess I hit more milestone in this year alone than I ever did before! I managed to keep my little family in one piece (no hospital trips to date, thank god), picked up some cooking skills (my husband can certainly vouch for that, lol), homeschool Ammaar and now he can finally read all his Malay books (so proud of my boy) and of course, consistently working out throughout the year (thanks to the Chloe Ting's youtube channel!).</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;"><div>Back to the topic at hand, ever since the MCO/CMCO, we tried to avoid crowded places as much as we could. I'm a little worried that Ammaar might be restless with the new norm but he seems to be adjusting pretty well, better than me in fact! So we have to be a little bit creative to make sure he can still have fun and yet adhere to the MKN's standard operating procedure. Family photoshoot seems like a good idea because it's been a while since our last session and we desperately need an update version as soon as possible!</div><div><br /></div><div>Back then, Ammaar was not very cooperative and cried most of the time (you can read all about it <a href="http://www.mizzayna.com/2016/06/keep-this-love-in-photographs-iq-studio.html">here</a>) so basically yes, it's the perfect time to get a brand new family portrait. We really love how our photos turn out before and choose IQ Studio again to capture the moment. They have moved to a new location in Semenyih by the way; it's more spacious, disabled-friendly and easily access from multiple highways. Do check them out if you're nearby, they have lots of interesting packages to choose from.</div></div><div>

There are some props in the studio for you to choose from or you can also bring yours too to fit in with your desired outcome. I always love effortless and natural kind of photos with simple, minimize background and I'm so happy that it turns out just like the way I envisioned. Unlike our previous photoshoot, Ammaar doesn't really need much direction this time around and happily posed for the camera.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;">Everything went smooth and easily, no drama in between and I can see that Ammaar is so much better at this than both of us ever will be... I'm a little out of touch to be honest, I almost forgot how to strike my signature pose (no I'm not pregnant by the way, it's my food belly, lol). In case you're wondering, you're in a very safe hand here in IQ Studio. There are only 1-2 staff at every moment and they regularly disinfect their premise after every usage.

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Hello again lovelies, I'm here with a beauty review to make up for the lost time. It's one of my favorite skincare find; the Herbivore Botanicals Lapis Facial Oil. As some of you might recall, I have a combination oily skin that has the tendency to be unpredictable. I desperately need something that can balance it out to make it more manageable. I came across the Lapis Facial Oil when I did my research on skin balancing and the dreamy shade of blue definitely caught my attention. I decided to give it a try despite my reservation towards anything oily and I'm so glad I did!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
According to their website, Lapis Facial Oil is named for the precious blue oil it contains, Blue Tansy. This oil holds a components called Azulene which aids in soothing dry irritated skin, reducing the appearance of redness and balancing skin. It's also infuse with Kukut Nut Oil to help nourishment at a deep level, Jojoba Oil which is an incredible natural moisturizer and Squalane that act as a light protective barrier to lock moisture into the skin and protect the skin against the appearance of hyperpigmentation and premature aging. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's specifically formulated for combination, oily and blemish prone skin with concentrated oil to provide your skin with long-lasting and effective hydration. Often times when we over-wash our skin and do not moisturize thoroughly, it overcompensates by producing more oil and sebum leading to oilier skin and clogged pores. Lapis Facial Oil is made with truly natural plant oils that will thoroughly hydrate your skin without clogging pores so that it can stop producing excess oil and find the balance it needs. In short, yes, oily skin needs moisture too and is often dehydrated, leading to dry patches and the overcompensation of oil and sebum.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To use, simply apply 4-6 drops of Lapis Blue Tansy Face Oil to cleansed and toned skin morning and night. Massage in and allow to absorb for 1-3 minutes before applying makeup. It's recommended by Herbviore to use it with Blue Tansy Invisible Pores Resurfacing Clarity Mask and layer on top of Pink Cloud for added moisture. Since Herbivore products contain no synthetic ingredients (no dyes, no fragrances, and no synthetic preservatives), it needs to be store upright in a cool, dry place and out of direct sunlight.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moving on to my personal thoughts on Herbivore Botanicals Lapis Facial Oil, first thing first is the packaging. It feels sturdy, luxurious and display the beautiful shade of blue perfectly. Can't help but loving how fancy it looks on my vanity! You can easily disperse the right amount of oil too with the dropper it comes with which is another plus for me. However, it's not suitable for travelling due to its size but you can always get the travel size instead if you're keen. The texture on the other hand is very lightweight and absorbs into my skin easily. I kind of like the fact that it make my skin feels completely moisturize throughout the day even in our hot and smoky weather.<br />
<br />
I've been loving it so far and on my third bottle at the moment. Unfortunately, there are few things I wish they could have done differently. The Lapis Facial Oil scent for example is quite intense and take me a while to get used to. It have a strong herbal fragrance which I believe might not be for everybody. Another thing to be considered is obviously the price. It's quite expensive compared to other facial oil in the market probably because of the truly natural ingredients but I still hope it could be slightly lower though. Luckily one bottle could last me around 4 months so I have the option to restock during Sephora's Beauty Pass Sale...<br />
<br />
Other than that, I'm quite happy with my Herbivore Botanicals Lapis Facial Oil. I still get break out every now and then but it's more manageable and heals faster than before. I do have some doubt about facial oil initially but Lapis Facial Oil definitely change my mind. If you're interested to learn more about the product, head over to their official site listed below. Until then, have a wonderful long weekend lovelies and Salam Merdeka, adieu~<br />

One of the things that MCO taught me; it's never too late to learn how to cook and I guess, I'm not as bad as I thought either... It's hard to believe that it takes a lockdown to make me finally realized how fun and exciting cooking can be! Everything from choosing the ingredients, preparing the meals to enjoy it with your whole family is definitely an experience I wish to relive over and over again. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
When it comes to ingredients, I obviously want nothing but the best for my loved one. A healthier and innovative alternative like plant-based meat is something that I really look forward to indulge myself with. In the United States for example, plant-based meat by companies like Beyond Meat made waves when it was first offered in restaurant and cafes. It was packaged and sold in US supermarkets since 2016 and popularly consumed not just among vegans but meat eaters too. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
In case you're wondering, plant-based meat is not actually meat regardless of it's name. It's actually made from the mixture of plant proteins, carbohydrates, healthy fats, natural colouring and natural flavouring to mimic the texture and taste of meat. Due to it's similar texture, taste, smell and colour to meat, it can be used as a substitute for items in your menu which were originally meant for meat. Isn't that music to every animal lover ears out there?</div>

Hello lovelies, I guess it's not too late to wish all of you a very Happy New Year! How is your 2020 so far? Mine is pretty calm surprisingly but hey, it's too early to say, who knows what the future might hold! A little recap for those of you who might be wondering, my baby boy Ammaar is not so little anymore, he will be turning 5 this May and already in preschool this year. He's such a great kid, I'm beyond grateful, Alhamdulillah. Always so gentle and kind, funny and independent too. Can't believe how fast he is growing up, I can barely keep up! </div>
<a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Back to the topic at hand, I usually avoid crowded places at all cost but seeing how happy and excited he was during our trip to Legoland last year (I promised I'll blog about it when I'm done compiling the photos) made me forgo all that and let my sisters treat him with a visit to Kidzania, KL. It's been ages since their last hang out session together and I completely trust them when it comes to Ammaar's safety and health. So they went during weekdays (obviously without me) and thankfully keeps me up to date via phone throughout the journey.</div>

Here's a little information about Kidzania, KL that I've gathered so far. It's a 2 floor indoor family themed learning centre that offers interactive learning and role play experiences for kids located at the The Curve, Mutiara Damansara. It's open on Sunday to Friday (except Monday) from 10pm to 5pm meanwhile on Saturday, Public Holiday and School Holiday the opening hours is from 10pm to 7pm. The entrance fee varies depending on your child age; it's free for children under 2 years old, RM44 for 2 - 3 years old and RM89 for 4 - 17 years old. You can get 10% discounts when you purchased your tickets online and yes, they charged chaperoning adults as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Some of the things that parents might have overlooked, there are waiting lines and specific hiring times for popular jobs such as pilot, firefighter, doctor so come early to avoid disappointment. Since there are almost 60 establishment to explore, you can plan your time efficiently by moving from the first floor downward to steer away from the massive crowd. Only your kids are allowed to queue unfortunately, just make sure you brief them beforehand and prepare them with books or toys to occupy their time while waiting.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
<span style="text-align: justify;">Another thing you should be aware of, there are limited food choices in here and the price is quite expensive. Due to their no outside food policy, I highly suggest you feed your kids first before entering so they can enjoy the whole experience without unnecessary drama. They have prayer room, changing room and parents lounge too should you choose to sneak away from the huzz and buzz for a while. Afraid not, every kids will be given their own RFID bracelets which is uniquely installed with identity chip to keep track of their whereabouts. </span></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I do feel worried initially, Ammaar is kind of small compared to the other kids here and I'm afraid he can't fully understand the whole concept of earning money yet. Again, he surprised us with his resilience and adaptability. He knew he have to work hard before he can enjoy the fruit of his labor. He tried his hands at being a firefighter, a surgeon and can't stop telling me about his favourite job, a pump attendant! I'm so freaking proud of him, patiently waited for his turns, listening to the staff instruction attentively and even brings some money home for mommy.</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
While most of the establishment at the Kidzania give the kids opportunity to earn money (the currency name is kidZos by the way), they can also spend it here for items and services. Ammaar used his hard earn money for a visit to the Vitagen laboratory and Faber Castell coloring activity. He managed to catch the magic show and had his face painted as well. This kid really know how to indulge himself, lol They can also opted to save their kidZos in saving account or apply for debit card to use within the Kidzania nation. Isn't that awesome?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
We're quite lucky that Ammaar seems to love his time at Kidzania but there's some minor details that we kind of missed like the minimum height required for some of the job and of course, most of the career here were tailored for school kids who can actually read. Sadly for a 4.5 years old boy like Ammaar who is still in the midst of learning the alphabets, there are very limited profession to choose from. Hopefully we'll get the chances to come again later in future when Ammaar is slightly bigger and a lot more wiser to enjoy the rest of the establishment. Until then, have a wonderful week ahead lovelies and I'll try my best to keep on posting, adieu~<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I love shopping but it doesn’t always love me back… I still remember the fashion mistakes that I’ve made over the years.

<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Sure, the options seem overwhelming, but you can also easily customize and filter your searches according to your preferences. You can narrow your searches down by color, label, retailers, price range, on-sale items, special offers or even by payment method (such as looking at retailers that offer Afterpay). It’s pretty much a search engine that helps you find the perfect piece without all the unnecessary tabs and distractions. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>

It never cease to amaze me how much effort and thoughts the Japanese really put into everyday things that we always took for granted. Folding paper; <i>Origami</i> for example can beautifully turns into delightful art creation in their hands and of course the highly rave <i>Konmari</i> method for organizing is making doing laundry a fun thing again, all thanks to Netflix and Marie Kondo. There's another thing however that I always noticed from years of binge watching Japanese drama; the <i>Meishi Koukan </i>tradition or in another words; the business card exchange.</div>

To the rest of the world, business card is just a card, nothing really significant and nothing personal. I guess it's about time we try to see it from the Japanese people perspective. Exchanging business card is so important to them that they even have a proper etiquette for it. It's symbolize the beginning of a relationship and serve an important networking function in Japan. It's more than just a way to break the ice, business card is an indication of one's social and business standings hence the level of respect you command.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
So basically yes, just like the Japanese I took my business card matters seriously too. I want it to be an extension of myself and represent all that I had to offer. Which is why I picked an abstract pink water color artwork as the background and a clean, geometric font to highlight the details. I want it to speak for me, I might look all girly and feminine but I can be tough and firm especially when it comes to business and everything I believe in. Business card doesn't have to be plain anymore, you can personalize it to fit your narrative or just go with what you like best.<br />

I've developed a new addiction recently and if you're still not getting where I'm going, here's a little clue... It have something to do with peach and makeup. Yes, you got it right, I'm all about the Too Faced Peaches & Cream collection these days! I'm perfectly aware that the peach rage is not exactly new. It's all started with the success of Too Faced Sweet Peach palette couple of years ago and now, the line up is getting bigger and bigger with new additions to give you the delicious taste of peach and sweet fig cream without the extra calories.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
There are a lot in this collection to choose from; highlighter, eyeshadow palette, lipstick, blusher, bronzer and even a makeup spray! You name it, they got it all covered but I already had my eyes on the foundation and primer after reading all about it online. The setting powder on the other hand is an impulse buy, I tricked my mind into buying it just because I'm running out of my favourite loose powder. What can I say, a trio is always better than a duo, right? So what are you waiting for lovelies, keep on reading to find out my full thoughts of this collection!</div>

<b>Too Faced Primed & Peachy Cooling Matte Perfecting Primer</b></div>

According to their official site, Too Faced Primed & Peachy Cooling Matte Perfecting Primer is a cooling, mattifying primer that blurs, smooths and brightens the complexion. It's infused with exclusive Comfort Matte Technology to delivers a soft focus finish with lightweight, comfortable wear that offers up to 12 hours of shine control. It's formulated without Parabens, Sulfates and Phthalates and enhanced with peaches and sweet fig milk to help keeping the skin moisturized, comfortable and beautifully matte. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
First thing first, let start with what I think about the packaging. It's identical to the foundation; cute, travel friendly, functional and comes with a pump, just the way I like it. The texture is quite thick and takes time to properly absorbs into my skin but it did feels refreshing whenever I applied it. It kind of have a subtle peachy scent if you're wondering and comes in a pretty shade of peach. It's not as drying as I though it'll be and definitely help in blurring my imperfections. Unfortunately, it didn't do much to extend the wear of my foundation like it's claim...</div>

Based on the website information, the Too Faced Peach Perfect Comfort Matte Foundation is a transfer resistant, medium coverage foundation that creates a smooth canvas for flawless, comfortable, matte wear that is never cakey or mask-like. It's photo-friendly, smooth, flawless and comfortable with soft-focus, velvety finish. Infused with peach and sweet fig cream, this oil controlling formula delivers up to 14 hours of wear and features exclusive Comfort Matte Technology to suit normal, dry, combination or oily skin. It's also vegan, cruelty-free and gluten-free.<br />
<br />
What can I say, I really love this foundation! Packaging wise, it's easy to disperse the product and looks cute enough for my vanity. I picked the same shade like my other Too Faced foundation, Born This Way which is a good call because it matched me perfectly. The texture is slightly watery with light to medium coverage. It didn't settle into my fine lines and looks or feels drying on the skin. The best thing about it is, it really delivers in giving me a long lasting matte finish. The only thing I wish I can change is perhaps the coverage, other than it's perfect for me!</div>

<b>Too Faced Peach Perfect Mattifying Loose Setting Powder</b></div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Last but not least is the Too Faced Peach Perfect Mattifying Loose Setting Powder. It basically claimed to be a lightweight, transfer-resistant, peach tinted mattifying loose powder that works to visibly brighten skin while creating a silky smooth, matte finish that lasts up to 14 hours. The universal peach tint powder is also formulated without harmful ingredients and enhanced with anti-oxidant benefits to comfort and moisturized your skin. Not only that, besides setting your makeup, it's also great for under-eye baking.<br />
<br />
I didn't plan to purchase this powder initially but I'm so glad I did. I truly like that it comes with a cover so I can safely prevent it from spilled all over the lid. Another thing that deserve a mention is the finely milled powder itself. It's really lived up to its hype in terms of providing me with a setting powder that's didn't give flashback, cling to dry patches or crease. It smells and feels wonderful on the skin but sadly, it's not as translucent as its names suggested. I can probably get away with wearing it, deeper skintone women however might feel differently.<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
To sum it all up, I can pretty much say that I'm very happy with my purchase. Some of them might not work as great as I want it to be but again, there are always hits and misses when it comes to cosmetics. Nobody's perfect, right? Besides the primer, they almost nailed it with the foundation and setting powder. If you're into peaches, sweet fig scent and have similar skin like mine (combination oily skin) you'll definitely love it. For more details, head over to their official sites listed below. Until then, I'm wishing you a peachy weekend ahead lovelies, adieu~</div>

Okay I lied, I'm not ready to say goodbye to all the photo filters that I'm obsessed with just yet but all the hype about Huda Beauty #FauxFilter definitely pique my interest! I know I'm a bit late to join the craze, I just want to wait until Huda Beauty available here at Sephora Malaysia to match the shade myself because I'm not really sure which one suits me better. According to #FauxFilter shade comparison guide, I'm matched to Toasted Coconut (deep light skin tones with neutral and golden undertones) but I kind of like the sound of Macaroon more, mmmmm~</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Back to #FauxFilter foundation, it comes in 30 shades ranging from fair, light, medium, tan and rich. 10 shades less than Rihanna's, not bad at all! I get why it's easy for beauty lovers out there to compare these two. Both brands really make it their mission to embrace diversity and have a deep understanding on how the beauty industry works. Everything is about setting a trend, blast it all over the internet and get advantage of it as much as you can. That's pretty much how Huda Kattan build her empire; starting from only liquid lipstick now she have almost everything!</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to their website, the #FauxFilter foundation blends seamlessly with skin and dries to a radiant matte powder finish that looks flawless and luminous. Enriched with ingredients like Argan Oil and Centella Asiatica (both known for their hydrating properties) this fade proof formula will give you a full coverage, long lasting look in just one application. Hiding blemishes, concealing imperfection and camouflaging dark circles, this foundation is packed with ultra-refined pigments that simultaneously improve the skin texture and make uneven skin a thing of the past. </div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moving on to my personal thoughts about the Huda Beauty #FauxFilter foundation, I'm really a big fan of the packaging. The plastic frosted bottle might not feel luxurious but it definitely looks like one. It's travel friendly and comes with a pump that dispense just the right amount of product for every usage. Another thing that I like about it is the scent. The soft, subtle floral scent reminds me of a designer perfume, one of the thing that I look forward everytime I'm wearing this foundation. The consistency however is a little thick and leaning more towards the heavier side. I'm okay with it though since it's easy to apply and blends pretty well into the skin.<br />
<br />
In terms of coverage, this foundation delivers in giving me the full coverage it promise. I can hide my blemishes and dark circle easily but it didn't help much with the texture and pores. It dries down to a semi matte finish and lasted for more than 8 hours on me if I set it properly with my favorite loose powder and setting spray. It do have the tendency to separate and crease after that if I skip the primer so I guess it's all depends on your skin type. The foundation is not exactly moisturizing but not drying as well which is kind of great for those who have combination skin like mine. It's not transfer-proof and doesn't give you flashback too in case you wondering.<br />

After testing out Toasted Coconut at the store, I'm finally convinced that it's the right shade for me. Macaroon appears so much lighter on me that even after it's oxidize, I still looks like a ghost, sigh~ All that aside, I can't help but loving the #FauxFilter foundation. It truly gives you the impression of using photo filters and flawless skin. It might be a little pricey but don't worry, you can always wait for the Sephora Private Sale to get it!

It can be hard to keep up with a full face makeup especially when you have a clingy little one but I try my best to at least wear an eyeliner to work everyday. Honestly, I kind of feel naked without one... I'm running out of it quite fast too so another one or two more certainly won't hurt. I received the latest Gel Eyeliner Pencil from Esqido recently (they shipped to Malaysia by the way) and available in two color selection; Black and Brown. I never really use gel eyeliner before, I usually go for kohl or the regular pencil liner so yes, I'm very excited to take it for a spin!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Based on the information from their official site, the Esqido eyeliner is specially formulated for all day wear to deliver a continuous flow with smooth even lines. It's highly pigmented, covers in one perfect coat and dries to beautifully matte finish. Comes with a twist, retractable dispenser and built-in precision sharpener, this eyeliner is 5-free, latex free and fragrance free too. Not only that, it's also formulated without formaldehyde, parabens, sulfates or phthalates making it the perfect eyeliner for those who have sensitive eyes like mine. </div>

<b>Esqido Gel Eyeliner Pencil in Black / Brown</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<b>0.5g [USD16.00]</b></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
★★★★☆</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
As usual, I will talk about the pro first. I like the sleek and chic packaging, the twist dispenser mechanism and of course the built-in sharpener concept. The texture on the other hand, feels more like crayon than gel to me but it's okay as long as the color intensity remains the same. The consistency is smooth and soft like its claim and didn't irritate my eyes at all. It's waterproof too in case you're wondering and easily removed with cleansing oil or any other makeup remover. It didn't smudge or smear after it's set and lasted for about 6 to 8 hours on my oily lids. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moving on to the cons, as much as I love the idea of having a built-in sharpener, this one can be very messy to work with. It takes me a little while to figure it out since the product itself is very soft and smooth which not really helping but the good thing is you can customize the thickness of the liner according to your preference. The liner however tends to break whenever I try sharpening it and cleaning the clogged sharpener is not as easy as it looks. I hope they can improve the quality of the built-in sharpener because the rest of the eyeliner is already perfect as it is! </div>

Besides the sharpener, I have nothing but love for this eyeliner. Both shades look lovely and glides smoothly, affordably priced and safe from any harmful ingredients. If you have to choose, I would say go for the brown one, it'll enhance any of your eye look effortlessly. It's currently mark down to only USD12.00 for a limited time so get yours now if you haven't got any! For more information and details, make your way to the their official site links below. Until then, I'm wishing you a wonderful and great month ahead lovelies, adieu~</div>

If you're a fan of natural botanical extracts in your cosmetics and skincare, this one is definitely for you. Say hello to the brand new makeup from Elianto! Meet the Deep Sea Water Lip & Eye Makeup Remover that's formulated with the deep sea water, the Pro Matte Lip Crayon which is enriched with natural oil and of course the Stay On Mascara that is specially created to enhance your beautiful eyes.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"></div><a name='more'></a><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">If you're not familiar with Elianto, here's a little fun facts for you. The name Elianto is actually derived from the Italian word "sunflower", inspired by the unique combination of striking beauty and utility symbolized by the flower. The brand is known for their gentle skincare products that's enriched with nourishing and soothing botanical extracts and vibrant range of color cosmetics with the finest quality natural ingredients at an affordable price. So yes, I'm pretty excited to check out what's the new addition is all about. Let's check it out together, shall we?</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisot5gJsbBZQzmpyvT4dSUO6EM9FXUMpVOI70u5miOd-vKMqjGZjQPlI5H-iLKyKOtFaoqjZPzmIp5gQ9aCgLna9L0L8SUWxCr9VJP6geHlnsijPBc30oCj2ERYNoNs74l81Xg/s1600/image2.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEisot5gJsbBZQzmpyvT4dSUO6EM9FXUMpVOI70u5miOd-vKMqjGZjQPlI5H-iLKyKOtFaoqjZPzmIp5gQ9aCgLna9L0L8SUWxCr9VJP6geHlnsijPBc30oCj2ERYNoNs74l81Xg/s640/image2.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Elianto Deep Sea Water Lip & Eye Makeup Remover</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>150ml [RM27.90]</b></div><div style="text-align: center;">★★★★☆</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">According to Elianto website, their Deep Sea Water Lip & Eye Makeup Remover gently but effectively removes waterproof eye and lip makeup by drawing out oil and impurities while infusing your skin with hydrating minerals to leave it clean, clear and supple. It's formulated with deep sea water to help you eliminate heavy makeup around your thin and sensitive areas like your eyes and lips without irritating it. To use the product, simply shake the bottle and apply a small amount of the makeup remover to cotton pad and gently wipe off the makeup.</div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">I have nothing bad to say about the product. I like the watery consistency, the hint of blue shade which really gives you a fresh and clean vibes and the bottle itself which is small and easy to travel with. I also like the fact that it didn't sting my eyes and removes my eye makeup smoothly and easily, just like my favorite cleansing oil always do for only a fraction of the price. I'm however isn't fond of the scent, which is pretty similar to baby oil. It playing trick on my mind too, am I using cleansing water or cleansing oil here? Mmmmm~</div><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6Dq-rhwqiIY9DAtmrfbbjvlfMmiM7Y7fCziTJriIhWymxPCartM7Hf23T2ZTcmpDQYAUy1f8wjiLC0L0hPtpw8wyVttMOP0B-qxD8tERtZvK3xdR2SVx1aUhjej5rf5blEJGH/s1600/image3.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj6Dq-rhwqiIY9DAtmrfbbjvlfMmiM7Y7fCziTJriIhWymxPCartM7Hf23T2ZTcmpDQYAUy1f8wjiLC0L0hPtpw8wyVttMOP0B-qxD8tERtZvK3xdR2SVx1aUhjej5rf5blEJGH/s640/image3.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Elianto Stay On Mascara</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>8g [RM39.90]</b></div><div style="text-align: center;">★★★☆☆</div><div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">The next one is the Stay On Mascara which Elianto claims to be a lengthening and volumizing mascara that gives you full and fluffy long lashes by separating fine hair with its refines brush that helps you coat your lashes from the root to create plush, black lashes that is long lasting but easily remove by the Elianto Deep Sea Water Lip and Eye Makeup Remover. To use the Elianto Stay On Mascara, position wand horizontally and wiggle brush from side to side, base to tip to achieve maximum volume, length and lifting effect.</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">Let's talk about the things that I like about this mascara first. I really like the wand, it's small but compliment the thick formula nicely. It definitely delivers in giving me the length and lifting effect to my straight and short eyelashes. The staying power is quite impressive too, I can get up to 8 hours before everything starts to melt. Besides that, it's easy to remove and water resistant as well. The only downside of it unfortunately, it didn't exactly give my lashes the maximum volume like Elianto's promise which is why I'm only giving it the 3 stars rating. </div><br />
</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdWi3zSgYB6X6y8fyE4bpPHTT00lGWq8Q_tUMvXcf3uWAD6moxfhjxzKgXwxEP4HfP73j7U2eF3lIB_QORWM7nTDQo7tdG2hJw1HU3tnii5pzg7sULS_jHG45l-kjxfdSTzn61/s1600/image4.jpeg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1067" data-original-width="1600" height="426" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdWi3zSgYB6X6y8fyE4bpPHTT00lGWq8Q_tUMvXcf3uWAD6moxfhjxzKgXwxEP4HfP73j7U2eF3lIB_QORWM7nTDQo7tdG2hJw1HU3tnii5pzg7sULS_jHG45l-kjxfdSTzn61/s640/image4.jpeg" width="640" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>Elianto Pro Matte Lip Crayon - Perfect Plum 04</b></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b>1.7g [RM36.90]</b><br />
<div>★★★★★</div><div><br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">Based on the info from Elianto official site, Elianto Pro Matte Lip Crayon creamy matte and ultra intense colour provides a moisture rich wear and applies with velvety matte powdery finishing and crease free smooth texture. It's enriched with natural oil like rose canina, avocado and apricot to promote skin conditioning and available in 5 beautiful full coverage shades (nude beige, peach perfect, signature pink, perfect plum, red rouge). Not only that, it's also comes with no sharpening, retractable tip twist that's very easy to apply and blend. </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">I like the whole concept, crayon like texture, the soft matte finish and the lovely shade selection. The shade doesn't last as long as I normally go for but it feels very comfortable on my lips and didn't accentuate any of imperfection so I find myself keep coming back for more. The only thing that I would probably change about the lip crayon is perhaps adding more shades to the collection, I could use more colors myself! Other than that, I think it's definitely a keeper, it's affordably price and gives your lips all the attention it deserved!</div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />
</div><div style="text-align: justify;">To sum it all up, the latest addition from Elianto really looks promising. I like the makeup remover and mascara but my favourite goes without saying to the Elianto Pro Matte Lip Crayon range, it's my go to lip product these days! If you haven't purchased it yet, you really should give it a try. To find out more about Elianto and the rest of their products, feel free to check out their official sites below. Until we meet again, I'm wishing you and your loved one a wonderful day ahead! Enjoy the long weekend lovelies, adieu~ </div><div style="text-align: justify;"><br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Technically, Ammaar Zahran is already 3 last May but as usual, I like to take my time writing about the object of my affection. If you knew me well, you probably noticed how reserved I can be when it comes to everyone I loved and hold dear. Surface stuff like OOTD and beauty review, I don't really mind sharing that for the whole world to see but intimate moment with my loved one, I like to keep it private and confidential. I do however make an exception for my son's birthday every year as a tradition that I intend to keep for as long as I lived =P<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
Back to the birthday boy, we had a small celebration this time around at our favorite restaurant. Nothing fancy but Ammaar really had fun being the center of everyone attention and having 2 cakes for himself. Since he's still and very much in his Batman phase, most of his birthday pressies this year were in Batman theme, all thanks to his aunties! Me and my husband on the other hand, decided to give him something else instead. No, it's not another sibling, just a better health care and education plan for his future =)<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I still remember my never ending worry about Ammaar's limited vocabulary last year but Alhamdulillah, he improved drastically since January and can finally communicate well with his friends and teachers. We didn't do much to be honest, we just try to talk to him as much as we could and encourage him to use his own words to express his feeling. Now, he can't stop talking and asking questions, I can barely keep up. He even know how to tease and being sarcastic! Sometimes I wonder whose side he takes after, mmmmmm~</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;">
Talking about his health, yes he did get sick a lot last year. It's his first year in school so I guess it's kind of expected. What I didn't anticipate was his back to back HFMD and chicken pox attack. He's too young to understand and it's really heartbreaking to see your little one suffering knowing that you can't do much to lessen the pain. Thankfully it's all behind us now and Ammaar's body is stronger and healthier this year. He didn't get sick as frequent as he used to but we still take all the precautions and always put his safety and health before anything else.</div>

Another thing that's worth mentioning is his independence and confidence level which shines brightly lately. He still love being fuss over when nobody is around but he will set the boundaries in front of others and prefer to do things like eating, cleaning or paying for his toys himself. We're still in the middle of potty train him and trust me, it's so much harder than it looks! If you have any tips and tricks to handle it like a pro, feel free to share it with me lovelies. I'm going to need all the help that I can get... Hopefully he will be diaper-free soon, Insyallah.</div>

Aside from all that Ammaar is still pretty much himself; cheeky, sweet, funny and a little bit bossy! I love hanging out with him, we can talk for hours about cars and we amuse (read : annoy) each other on daily basis! He's my bff for sure, always there to cheer me up whenever I'm having a bad day. I learn a lot about love and patience because of him, he truly inspired me to be a better version of myself. To my dearest Ammaar, I wish you'll always be the kind, loving and gentle soul I knew you are, mommy and daddy love you so very much sweetie. And to all the mothers out there, hold your head high, we run the world, baby! Until then, have a fastastic week ahead lovelies, adieu~<br />

<div style="text-align: justify;">
It's been a while since my last beauty review and to be honest, I don't really have high expectation when it comes to hair care products. I switched shampoo all the time but nothing really impressed me to just stick to one. I have an oily scalp with dry and dull hair. Let's add dandruff to the equation too so basically my quest for the perfect hair products that address all this issue is kind of on-going battle that will never end. Sounds pretty dramatic, right? Not really actually because trust me, I can easily find 10 other women who going through the same problems...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
When I received the Hijabista hair care range for review couple of weeks ago, the same question comes to my mind. What's the different between Hijabista and the other hair care line that targeting <i>hijabis</i> out there? According to C.Michael; the founder and the expert behind the brand; Hijabista hair products is specially formulated for those who wear headscarf and infused with their signature Swiss inspired Apple Stem Cell technology to let you experience sensational freshness that smells wonderful all day long.<br />
<br />
As someone who wears <i>hijab</i> religiously, scalp itchiness is definitely something that bothers me. Most of the time, I'll just ignore it altogether but it can be pretty disturbing especially when I need to look and feel my best. I've tried other hair care line that focus on <i>hijabis</i> before unfortunately it didn't help much either. So I decided to give Hijabista a shot and test out the Hijabista Dandruff Control Shampoo, Hijabista Hair Conditioner and Hijabista Scalp Refresher myself. I gave the rest of the shampoo to my sisters to review on my behalf and here's our verdict.</div>

Based on what my sister Atiqah told me, Hijabista Normal Hair Shampoo cleanse her hair very well with refreshing scent that's mild enough to use daily and didn't left her scalp and hair feeling dry or itchy. Frequent usage didn't show much difference in terms of giving her hair added lustre and healthier shine she aiming for but it certainly moisturizing probably due to the combination of shea butter, Vitamin B5 and Vitamin B3 in the formulation. She's more than happy to continue using it and looking forward to try out the other hair care product from this range. </div>

My sister Izzah tested out the Hijabista Hair Fall Control Shampoo recently and according to her, it's good when it comes to cleanse and refresh her scalp. Unfortunately, it didn't do much to help with her hair fall issue. She loves the scent and how the shampoo makes her hair stronger though. Perhaps she haven't used it long enough for it to work it's magic. Someone told me before that stronger hair will promotes high resistance from breakage and will make hair fall become less pronounce in the long run so we'll just have to wait and see...</div>

As promised, the Hijabista Dandruff Control Shampoo do live up to its claim and helps me with my itchy and flaky scalp, thanks to it's special ingredients, Zinc Pyrithione (ZPT) and Vitamin E. I feel so much more comfortable in my hijab and yes, it really keeping the dandruff at bay! Of course it didn't disappeared overnight but with continuous usage, I do see a remarkable difference in terms of the dandruff presence and the comfort level it gave. One thing though, it's not exactly drying but it's not moisturizing either, perhaps to make room for the conditioner? </div>

According to my sister Zura, Hijabista Damage Repair Shampoo definitely makes her hair feel so much more alive and energized. She used to do lots of chemical treatment to her hair before so it's quite dry and dull. It contains Hydrolyzed Vegetable Protein PG-Propyl Silanetriol and Apple Stem Cell that penetrates into the hair cortex which build strength from within to protect the surface of the hair in order to make your hair healthy and filled with vitality. Besides that, it can also fight colour fade, nourishing and moisturizing it as well too.</div>

I basically have nothing bad to say about Hijabista Scalp Refresher. It's truly a game changer for me! I don't really wash my hair in the morning except on weekend so I just spray it onto my scalp and massage a little before wearing my hijab and it makes my scalp feel fresh and cool throughout the day. I don't have to worry about sweaty and sticky scalp anymore thanks to the high antioxidant Camellia Sinensis leaf extract added in this scalp purifier which help to clear off the excess dead cells built in the follicles that hinders the healthy hair growth.</div>

When you first start dating your partner, you're two single people getting together and having a good time. You probably enjoy holidays and romantic meals together, and you can spend the evenings curled up on the couch watching TV doing absolutely nothing. However, when the kids come along, this scenario can dramatically change. You might not have the time to go out together anymore and when you do, it's probably somewhere fun for the kids instead. So, how can you keep the magic alive once you become a parent? </div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
One way that you can still keep the love alive is to send each other <a href="https://youqueen.com/love/relationships/10-romantic-texts-to-send-your-boyfriend/">secret love messages</a>. For example, leave your partner a little note on the fridge telling them how much you love them. Leave a little message in their lunch box, so they discover it at lunchtime when you aren’t there. You can also send them messages on their phone or just send some cute emojis or perhaps using their <a href="https://funattic.com/cute-names-girlfriend/">cute nicknames</a>. Doing this sweet little gesture definitely counts and shows that you are still thinking of each other even if you cannot always be together. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Although everyone loves to receive a gift from a loved one, you can make it extra special by sending it to them unexpectedly. For example, you can send a bunch of flowers to your partner's office or perhaps meet them for an impromptu lunch at work. These kind of surprises will never get boring and it's a lovely way to remind your special one how much you really care. When special occasions arise, you can make things even better by <a href="http://werethejoneses.com/5-tips-surprise-your-loved-one-valentines-day/">arranging for a surprise gift</a> too. I'm sure your other half will appreciate your effort to rekindle the romance.</div>

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Even though you have kids, it doesn’t mean that you can’t have the occasional weekend away. If you have friends or family that can look after the kids for couple of days, use the opportunity to spend some time together for a weekend getaway. It doesn’t have to be far, in fact it could be in the very same town, as long as it's only involve the two of you. If you normally have a hectic life, you can choose to spend the weekend relaxing and unwind together. You can also revisit the places you used to meet each other and create new memories together.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If your children keep a good sleeping routine, you can always use the time after they've gone to bed to spend time together. All you need to do is make sure everything is settled before bedtime and you're all set to binge watch your favorite series or perhaps took the time to talk and share your dreams with each other. Becoming a parent doesn’t necessarily means you can't have a romantic relationship. In fact, it become even more important once the children arrive.

Raya is just around the corner and I know all of you lovelies must be feeling excited to reunite with your loved one. To help your family stay protected during this festive season, Dettol Malaysia is running a hand hygiene initiative at selected Rest & Relaxation stations (R&R) throughout Peninsula Malaysia. Just like a mother who want to provide unconditional love protection to her children, Dettol is committed to safeguard your family hygiene during the joyful celebrations so that you can love more and share more with each other without worries. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Travelling back to hometown for Raya is a long journey and travelers always stop at R&R stations for a short break to refresh. Some of the families might need to spend 6 to 12 hours in the car in order to reach their hometown in East Coast from Kuala Lumpur. Thus, the few minutes we spend washing our hands go a long way to safeguard ourselves and our loved ones from germs. Dettol hopes to bring this message to encourage them to practice good hygiene habits in order to have a worry-free Raya and share more special moments together.</div>

It's been a while since the last time I'm wearing false lashes and I still remember clearly how unpleasant the experience was to me. It felt so heavy and irritates my eyes to no end, sigh~ Yes lovelies, I'm talking about my wedding day, probably the only day you ever see me with falsies. To be perfectly honest, I wasn't bless with naturally long or curly lashes and rely heavily on mascara and eyelash curler. I know, sooner or later I'm going to need a lot more help to elevate it instead of hiding behind my good old glasses. </div>

Thank god it's all history. I'm so glad when Esqido approached me couple of months ago. If you never heard of Esqido, it's actually a luxury mink strip eyelash specialist that garnered crazy interest from A-list celebrities like Gigi Hadid, Rihanna, Adrianna Lima and so many more! Obviously I'm super excited to get a little taste of the rich and famous with this fancy lashes and purposely chosen their mink lashes in Starlet for that. Will it live up to it's glory or just another overly hype beauty accessories? Let's figure it out together, shall we?<br />
<br />
According to Esqido website, their luxurious mink lashes were meticulously handcrafted with premium mink hairs and a soft cotton band to create sophisticated looking false lashes with unparalleled comfort. Because of their fineness and similar properties to human lashes, mink hair are an ideal material to use for making a natural looking lashes that accentuate your eyes exquisitely and effortlessly. Not only that, mink lashes are very easy to apply, durable and quite resilient as well. With proper care, this mink lashes could last for up to 30 times wear!<br />

All doubts that I had <a href="http://esqido.com/">Esqido Mink Lashes</a> quickly disappeared the moment I saw the gorgeous white and rose gold packaging. It's beautifully presented with instruction care leaflet inside, a thoughtful gesture that I truly appreciate since I have no experience handling mink lashes before. The lashes texture may looks delicate but it undeniably delivers in giving my eyes the lush curl and voluminous effect I'm aiming for. The style that I picked; Starlet comes with a medium volume lashes and shorter length, perfect for additional touch of glam to my everyday look.<br />
<br />
I struggle a little when I'm wearing the lashes for the first time but it gets better once I finally get the hang of it. In terms of comfort, I love that it didn't aggravate my eyes and yes, it's doesn't feels as heavy as the other false lashes. Besides Starlet, they send over their <a href="https://esqido.com/products/companion-eyelash-glue">Companion Eyelash Glue</a> to test out too. It's specially formulated for strong all day hold and latex free which is great for my sensitive eyes. It's also equipped with precision bristle tip for easier application. The only downside of it, it takes quite some time for the glue to settle and get tacky though.<br />

To sum it all up, Esqido definitely change my perception about false lashes. I never thought I can happily wear one without compromising the comfort before! Price-wise, it might be on the higher side but imagine how much time and money you'll save instead of going for eyelash extensions. If you're feeling overwhelmed with the endless options they have and wondering which style suits you best, you can take the Esqido Lash Quiz <a href="https://esqido.com/pages/find-the-perfect-false-lashes/#/home">here</a>.

<div style="text-align: justify;">
I've been let down over and over again by overrated, high-end foundation so I guess why not I change direction and set my sight on a cheaper alternative instead. That's basically how I end up with not one but two highly rave and cult favourite foundation from The Ordinary. Since it's so affordably priced, I decided to purchase both version; coverage and serum right away. All the review I read looks promising, the website information is very thorough and the shade selection is quite easy to figure out with, who am I to say no to all that, right?</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<a name='more'></a><br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
If you're not familiar with The Ordinary, they actually begin as a beauty brand that offers a wide range of skincare treatment for only a fraction of the market price. Not only that, they're expanding more into cosmetics recently and of course, I'm intrigued to find out what's the fuss is all about! According to The Ordinary, both foundation are vegan, alcohol-free, oil-free, nut-free, gluten-free, soy-free and also cruelty-free. It's also comes with SPF15 and available in 21 shades that were divided into 3 skin tone categories; light (1), medium (2) and deep (3).</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
They also added that The Ordinary Coverage Foundation is made from full coverage formulation which contains higher pigment level to create a rich, highly-saturated effect. These pigment are suspended in their proprietary spread-ability system that allows pigments to look natural on the skin, resist collecting within fine lines and stay on for longer meanwhile The Ordinary Serum Foundation promised a moderate coverage that looks natural with a very lightweight serum feel. Low in viscosity, it's also treated for a rich, highly saturated effect too.</div>

Moving on to my thoughts, first thing first is the packaging. I really like how minimalist the design is. Travel friendly plastic bottle with a black pump that dispense the product efficiently, nothing lush and unnecessary. Texture-wise; it feels a lot like lotion, lightweight and comfortable on the skin. The scent on the other hand is very mild and in terms of the coverage, it's pretty similar to Too Faced Born This Way foundation that I previously blog about <a href="http://www.mizzayna.com/2017/01/on-right-track-with-too-faced-born-this-way.html">here</a>. Buildable medium to full coverage with natural, semi matte finish. </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
To be honest, I don't really have high hopes with this foundation but it keeps on surprising me. It's not cakey or oxidize much like I was expecting and the staying power is quite impressing too. It's stays for more than 8 hours, surpassing some of the high end foundation that I've tried before! The only thing I dislike about it, it's only works well when I'm using it with The Ordinary High-Adherence Silicon Primer. I've tried using it with my other primer, Hourglass Veil Mineral and Benefit Porefessional unfortunately it doesn't last as long, sigh~</div>

I don't really wear light coverage foundation so this one is quite new to me. If you're wondering why they're using the word "serum", no it's not because of it comes with any skincare benefit. It's actually referring to the the foundation watery, weightless serum-like texture. The packaging and scent is identical to The Ordinary Coverage Foundation so I won't delve into the details here. Just like it's claim, the coverage is leaning more towards sheer. It's not good enough to cover my skin imperfections sadly but feels so hydrating on the skin.</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Again, I didn't expect much with this foundation. It lasted for about 4 hours on me and didn't looks cakey even after I applied the second layer. Another plus point is, it doesn't really oxidize and turn one shade darker which I love. This foundation might not be something that I'll pick for special occasion but for everyday looks, it certainly have the potential to be my new favorite! I wish it comes with higher SPF though so I don't have to worry about putting on sunscreen ever morning, god knows how much I hate doing that!</div>

All in all, I can say that The Ordinary foundation is definitely nothing less than ordinary. I finally understand what's all the craze is all about. It's so affordably price and delivers most of it's claim, you really have to try it to believe it. I'm so freaking excited to get my hands on their skincare next, let's hope it'll live up to it's promise just like this one too. For more information and details about The Ordinary, you can refer to their official sites listed below. Until we meet again, I'm wishing you a peaceful and happy Ramadhan lovelies, adieu~<br />

Hello again May, you know you'll always be my favorite month. It's so much more special this year, we welcome Ramadhan this time around and of course, Tun M is making a spectacular comeback for Malaysian as well! Political aside, it's also my son and I birthday month and mother's day too so we're a little busy preparing for everything. Thank god the long weekend came just in the right time, I finally have more time to spend with family and close friends. I just wish it will never end, we could use more days like this, right?</div>

Moving on to the outfit, it's from last year Rizman Ruzaini's RTW raya collection. You probably noticed my tendency to buy last season items. The price is usually way cheaper, sometimes even up to 70% discount. It's not without a risk obviously, the size and the color you want might be sold out but as my husband used to say, good things come to those who wait! The rest of the accessories were history. I wear them in numerous occasions before and keep going back for more. Remember, always opted for classic and timeless fashion pieces, lovelies~</div>

It's like love at first sight, I really love everything about the outfit. The cutting and the combination of lace and ribbons were nicely done, nothing over the top but still giving you the right kind of attention. Small details that make a different, just the way it should be. Never thought I'm going to fall for the sweet mixture of black and pink so much. I guess you're going to see me in a lot of these shades in future. Before ending this post, I would like to wish Ramadhan Kareem to all muslims out there and till then, have a wonderful weekend lovelies, adieu~<br />

You don't get to call yourself Malaysian if you have no idea what "Musang King" is. It's the most sought after durian and treated like a national treasure here, thanks to it's thick, creamy texture and not so cheap price. I'm not really into exotic food to be honest but Elianto Musang King makeup collection definitely piqued my interest. I'm really excited to test and see what it's all about! I've heard about durian inspired coffee, cake and even cookies. Beauty products however seems to be too good to be true, is it going to capture the king of all fruits in all it's glory? </div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">

<div style="text-align: justify;">
According to Elianto, their Musang King collection allows you to have a taste of durian throughout the day in its lipsticks and eye colors that will make you pop in a fresh, playful and daring way. It comprises rich yellow shades for its lip care, lip colour, highlighter and eyeshadow just like the famous Musang King's deep yellow flesh. It's also infused with durian scent to make the whole experience even more authentic and special. Will it be a hit or a miss? Keep on reading to find out my thoughts on this one-of-a-kind cosmetic collection.</div>

Let's kickstart with Elianto Musang King Moist Lip Care first. It comes in two different version; subtle shades of yellow and pink and enhanced with SPF 18 to protect the lips from harmful UV rays and external aggression. It's also made from combination of natural ingredients such as cocoa butter, olive oil and vitamin E too. It's really moisturizing and comfortable to wear. You can either apply it on it's own or you can used it to prep the lips as well. I hardly noticed any durian scent when I'm wearing this lip balm. If durian is not really your cup of tea but still feel curious nevertheless, you probably want to start experimenting with this one instead.</div>

The Elianto Musang King Lip Colour on the other hand is my least favourite in this collection. The shade is quite hard to pull off unless you have a very adventurous streak but it's not all bad though. The opacity level is leaning more towards sheer so you can choose to wear it by layering it with other lipstick. It's dries down to a matte finish and surprisingly, lasted a lot longer than I expected. The texture is a little bit creamy but feels light and moisturizing on the lips. Unlike the lipblam, this lip colour is heavily scented with durian, perfect for a durian lover out there! I truly wish I can like this more but I can't really see myself getting away with yellow lip colour, sigh~</div>

Of course I didn't expect anything less than a golden highlighter when I've heard about Elianto Musang King Highlighter. The swatch I have here didn't really do justice to the highlighter, it's so much more vibrant and beautiful in real life. The texture is very smooth and velvety, the color payoff is extremely pigmented, what can I say, they absolutely nailed it! The durian scent is quite mild in this one and since the shades is quite intense, you might want to use a lighter hand when applying the highlighter. I personally think that it will compliment deeper skintone better though, the rest of us going to need a lot more than luck to make it work unfortunately.</div>

Last but not least is the Elianto Musang King Eyeshadow. I have nothing but love for this duo, both of the shades (cocoa and yellow) are so wearable and versatile. The texture is very soft and smooth on the lids with a faint durian scent. The pigmentation is quite good, easy to blend and leaves you with a lovely matte finish. I like to use cocoa as a transition shade for my natural day look and yellow work best as a highlight shade especially for my brow bone area. If you've oily eyelids like me, don't forget to use an eye primer beforehand. And yes, I'm so glad they didn't go for green eyeshadow for this collection, I don't think green eye-do will looks good on me...</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
<br /></div>
<div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">
Overall verdict, I think this collection is just like the durian itself, you're either going to love it or hate it. Some of the shades like the lip colour and highlighter are quite bold and vivid. It's clearly not for everyday look and might take a while to get used to meanwhile the rest of the collection falls into the natural category which I do appreciate more. For more information and details, kindly visit their official site listed below. Until then, spice up your day with a sprinkle of yellow and never forget to a have a little bit of fun in between lovelies, adieu~</div>

Before you start asking, no I'm still not over my liquid lipsticks obsession... Colourpop Lux Lipstick is pretty much a spur of the moment kind of purchase. The truth is, I don't have much experience with Colourpop. I know they're affordable and on par with other well known beauty brands in terms of quality but I never really tempted to purchase before due to my bad experience with their Lippie Stix. The Colourpop Lux Lipstick finally had me at hello all thanks to the irresistible packaging. It looks a lot like Charlotte Tilbury luxurious lipstick line, isn't it?<br />
<a name='more'></a><br />
According to Colourpop, the Lux Lipstick is made from nourishing blend of liquid and waxes, enriched with acai, jojoba and pomegranate seed butter to give long wearing creamy matte finish that doesn't feather or bleed with intense pigmentation in colours that made for every skin tone. Comes in 33 shade selection; from the lightest nude hue to unconventional black, this full coverage lipstick is vegan, cruelty free and infused with natural antioxidant to keep lips hydrated and fresh besides protecting it from environmental stressors and premature aging.</div>
<br />
<div style="text-align: justify;">
I decided to get my hands on 5 Colourpop Lux Lipsticks this time around and my picks were Money Side Up (bublegum pink), Still Crazy (mauve pink), Ghosted (medium rose), What If (cool toned fuschia) and Sitting Pretty (muted fuschia). I have a thing with pink and fuschia, always end up getting the similar shade over and over again and since the formula is different, I guess another 5 more wouldn't hurt, right? I know I should stop buying lipsticks but the colours are so beautiful, I just can't help myself from falling for the lippies!</div>

<div style="text-align: justify;">
Moving on to my personal thought, let's discuss the packaging first, shall we? The lipstick comes in a glamorous rose gold star studded tube with the shade label underneath, a little touch that I always appreciate. Everything screams luxury, from the box to the lipstick itself, they definitely exceed my expectation. Just like what Colourpop claims, the Lux Lipstick texture feels smooth and buttery on the lips. Speaking of the hydration level, it's not as drying as liquid lipstick but not exactly moisturizing either. Perhaps my lips is way too dry to begin with...<br />
<br />
The finishing on the other hand is leaning more towards satin. It doesn't bleed or settled into lines but not very long wearing just like most lipsticks out there. It's not transfer-proof unfortunately and lasted about 5 hours on me as long as I didn't eat or drink anything. The thing that I love the most about these lipstick is of course, the color payoff. It's highly pigmented, one swipe and you're good to go! In terms of patchiness, I didn't experience any so far and scent-wise; it's mild, barely there, you probably won't noticed it unless you have extremely sensitive sense of smell.<br />

Honestly, I can't think of any bad things to say about these lipsticks. I love all the shades I bought especially Still Crazy and Ghosted. I'm planning to add a few more but international delivery takes a lifetime to arrive here, sigh~ Back to Colourpop Lux Lipstick, I highly recommend it if you're a fan of satin finish lipstick and everything rose gold. It's inexpensive and comes with extensive shade selection, what's not to love about it, right? For more details, check out their official site below and until then, take a good care of yourself lovelies, adieu~</div>
