I attended Laneige Perfect Renew Challenge Workshop this afternoon and was given a 4-week $156 trial kit at the end of the session consisting:

Perfect Renew Skin Refiner
Gel-based toner that penetrates into skin giving moisture and tension.

Perfect Renew Emulsion
Lotion that fits into your skin tightly by absorbing moisture.

Perfect Renew Essence
Treats signs of aging and gives elastic finish

Perfect Renew Cream
Low viscose cream that cares first signs of aging.

Perfect Renew Dual Touch Eyes

Dual anti-aging eye care treating all signs of aging in eye area allowing bright and smooth eye area.  This cute tub comes with both Day & Night creams, cool right?

This anti-aging range of products is an exclusive technology which uses the theory of drug delivery system through adhesive skin patches.
They all contain Ceramide Repair Water that reduces dehydration, the cause of aging, and Skin Renewal Peptide that penetrates anti-aging nutrients deep into the skinfor the greatest positive effect.



I then stopped by ToriQ for my breakfast-lunch-dinner meal (lol)
Teriyaki Chicken is divine, I tell you!



After that I stopped by the supermaket to doing some shopping.
You know, it's the first time I'm using a trolley by myself.
It's hard to maneuver and I got loads of stares at my pathetic attempts to avoid accidents (lol)



Another side shot taken before I left home. I'm so relieved that my skin's slowly clearing up~. (*^ー^*)

PS
Dee
, I will have to send out your mail on Tuesday. The parcel wasn't filled up so I had to bring it home and fill up the extra spaces...

This is the first time I've found shopping to be so tiring. The muscles in my arms are aching, having to carry Dee's package to & fro, and also the goodies I bought... My leg muscles are also protesting, having walked the entire day.
It's times like these when a boyfriend can come in handy... *Sigh*

8 weeks without Supernatural... When God is gone and the Devil takes hold, who will have mercy on my soul!! By the way, who else thinks that Mark Sheppard was severely underused in yesterday's episode *Sulk*

今天参与了LaneigePerfect Renew Challenge讲座.收益良多的说~
离开之前还获得了试用4周,价值$156的产品哦!
每个人都会渐渐老化,不过防止能够把这人人都会经历的过程,放慢.

之后就到ToriQ吃我的早、午、晚餐 (笑)
我最爱吃Teriyaki鸡咯!!

回家前到了超市,我还第一次自己用手推车哟!
真的好难控制耶,害得我好狼狈...

出门前又拍了侧面照! (*^ー^*)

逛一整天,超级累呀! 腰酸背痛的...在这个时候最需要一位猛男帮我拿购物袋了...

Great discoveries at Muji!!!

1) Loose Power in Lucent Pearl Natural
This is available in matte & pearl shimmer. I'm unable to get a clear swatch because the texture is really light. The shimmer doesn't make you look like a disco ball, instead it gives you that radiant, natural glow!

Available in 6g and 18g but I opted to get the refill(18g) instead.
I thought it was smart of me, because it contains the same amount minus the larger jar☆ Besides, it's cheaper to get an empty jar, and I saved $6 in the process!

2) Powder Puff
I was stoked, trying on the loose powder and found the puff is so velvety~ It felt so smooth that I ended up getting more excited than with the powder! Available in 3 sizes (I got the largest)

3) Gold Nail Polish
I got really high, high, high when I saw this shade.
It looks exactly like Lancome's Golden Audacity, which I've been lusting after ever since I got back from their Declaring Indigo Preview in July!

It's a pity that the cosmetics here aren't as well-stocked as in Taiwan...



Milo's starting to get close to me, even insisting on sleeping on my lap! I tried to put him back in his cage, but he ended up whining...
I tried it 3 times but he always wins!! ( ̄‥ ̄)

Here he is, being carried him like a baby~.

I've been using Elizabeth Arden's Prevage for close to a week now, so stay tuned for a review. However, it doesn't seem to 'get along' with Laneige...well, I'll tell you another time (lol)

我在《无印良品》有大发现!!!

1) 蜜粉(珍珠亮粉)
Muji的蜜粉有2款,另一个是珍珠自然. 非常轻,搽在脸上一点感觉也没有,而且亮粉让我看起来有一种很自然的光泽哦!

售卖有6g以及18g,而我选择买refill (笑)
很聪明吧? 一样是18g,但只是少了罐子哟☆
反正买个空罐很便宜,我省下了6块钱呢~!!

2) 蜜粉用粉撲
刚在店里试蜜粉的时候,令我很兴奋的竟然是它的powder puff! 超级柔滑的耶~~
售卖有大、中、小 () 我买大的)

3) 金色指甲油
当我看到的时候,我整个人已经达到high、high、high哇呀呀!
颜色跟Lancome的《Golden Audacity》简直一个样!
自从7月份在Declaring Indigo Preview的function看到后,我就一直想要!

不过还是稍微失望,因为台湾的分店里售卖的化妆品更多...

Milo越来越亲近我了,甚至连睡觉也要在我脚腿上睡!
我尝试在它睡着后放进它的小窝里,不过还是会呱呱叫...
事了3次,最后还是它赢了!! ( ̄‥ ̄)

照片里,它被抱德像宝宝~.

试用了Elizabeth Arden's Prevage已经快一周了,请期待我的评价. 不幸的是,该产品似乎跟Laneige“合不来.” 唔...下次再告诉你 (笑)

I headed down to the Elizabeth Arden head office today to meet the friendly PR, Liz.
It was supposed to be a short 30min introduction to their launch of the Prevage Anti-Aging Moisturizer, but our chat over-ran for an hour (lol)

PREVAGE Day Ultra Protection Anti-aging Moisturizer SPF 30 PA++
With a broad spectrum SPF protect, this product aim at moisturizing and improving the appearance of dry skin, evening out your skin tone to create a brighter, more radiant look.

Idebenon: The power of PREVAGE®
PREVAGE® Day includes the revolutionary Idebenone, a clinically proven antioxidant that addresses the affects of oxidation on the skin, which is a leading cause of visible signs of aging. PREVAGE® Day also contians Thiotaine, another antioxidant that complements Idebenone in protecting the skin from free radical damage caused by environmental assaults.

So be sure to check out the launch of PREVAGE® Day at the local EA counters this coming Friday!

I was given a 7-day trial of both Day and Night cream; the full-sized products will given later due to a delay in shipment. On top of that, Liz was kind enough to give me Fortifying Capsules from the White Glove range! σ(^。^;

This White Glove skincare range is specially created for Asian women.

Each capsule contains a pure form of Vitamin C:

  • Encapsulation technology offers time-released brightening benefits
  • Minimizes the look of freckles, dark spots & discoloration
  • Promotes skin a radiant, even-toned, translucent complexion
  • Sustains natural collagen levels for a smoother, firmer skin
  • Vitamin C content helps repair skin to reduce appearance of lines & wrinkles
  • Suitable for even sensitive skin


PS
My skin condition has gone berserk with the arrival of Milo. Bacteria, his poo & pee have been drivin' me nuts! Nowadays I put on my Japanese Kimono silk robe (nothing else underneath besides lingerie) to bed to avoid sleeping with his smell & germs...

Went to collect my Laneige hamper today.
The $200 worth of prizes consist of make-up products, enough to make me happy for a while~.

Every Asian women would kill to have her flawless complexion.

Eye Color Pencil Dual Shadow - #1 Luminant Beige & Choco Brown. Eyeshadow crayon which comes with its own sharpener.
Professional Selection - Shadow (Essence) - shimmery in skin beige
Snow Crystal Melting Glossy Lipstick - secret brown

On top of that, I was given an exquisite Laneige organizer & samples from their basic care range.

I went on another mask spree today (lol)
It wasn't intentional, I swear. It was so cheap that it's simply irresistible♥♥♥
Most importantly, they don't flake as I put on moisturizer afterwards.
The Scheming Beauty series are lousy! I used the last one last night and made me go nuts~!!

今早6点就起身,一部分的原因是因为被狗吵醒...
领了价值$200的Laneige产品,超豪华的耶~~

宋慧乔 - 相信是每个亚洲女性心目中最羡慕的一位了.
她的美丽、完美的肌肤...是我们要求的目标,不是吗?

我刚刚也买了很多面膜...呵呵!!
因为很便宜,买了这么多也不会觉得很心痛啦!

So I didn't manage to get Chuck Palahniuk's "Lullaby."
Instead I settled for John Ajvide Lindqvist's "Handling The Undead."

You might recall that I'd bought his bestselling novel last year,
and was utterly disappointed with the movie version...

FYI, Hollywood's doing a remake. Bleh!

I love vampire mythology, but Stephenie Meyer had ruined the fun! 凸(`з´)
Vampires don't freakin' sparkle, for God's sake!

Anyway, "Handling The Undead" is about zombies! Grieving families in Stockholm find themselves able to see their loved-ones waking... (A movie is in the works)

(Cue: Michael Jackson - "Thriller")


My hair smells like raspberries, thanks to Liese Juicy Shower. It's very moisturizing, and works better than the hair cocktail I bought sometime ago.

Our skin produces new skin cells to replace aging & dead skin cells everyday. If they are not removed, they will build up and lead to clogged pores & acne. I like to rotate skincare products hence a new exfoliator, which contains green tea & whitening properties☆

I like using Rohto eye drops to refresh my eyes.
It's so compact that it doesn't take up too much room in my bag~.

Lastly, Formula 10.0.6 Acne Blemish Treatment. I have high raves for the detox mask, which left my skin smooth & clear. Plus, the citrus smell is so soothing~. Unfortunately, you can't see instant results so stay tuned to my review to this zit-zapping product.
