Stage Makeover

Stage @ Mid Valley

Sunday afternoon went to Mid Valley for Stage Makeover which I had won from Jess's 1st blog contest!

My make up artist of the day Ameer, a young malay guy, he did a good job, cuz I love the makeover a lot! Even my hubby told me it's nice! Ameer told me he had 3 years experience in this field! He blend and matched the color very well on my skin tone!

I told him I prefer a natural look as I will be going for shopping later! So he chose the purple color as eye shadow! I never thought purple color can turn out so good on me! *wink*

Here's the photo of the day! After I had the makeover session, I went to meet my sister at Dior @ The Garden!


I love the makeover!!

Rene Furterer

Today went to KLCC for Bookfest to grab few magazines I had missed the last time I went!

Anyway, today's top story is not about Bookfest instead! It's about the Rene Furterer promotion for Isetan member! Wow... it's so good luck to be Isetan member as we get so many freebies & promotion from time to time!!

Actually after I done my shopping at bookfest, I was supposed headed straight to Ferragamo @ the Gallery, Isetan KLCC to meet up with my bro & sister. But when I walked in from the Apartment entrance, the Rene Furterer was at my left hand side and I saw the advertisement about the promo. Of course, without delay, I headed straight to the SA and asked her about the free hair scalp analysis & consultation. I signed up for both myself & my hubby for the analysis, as I heard very good comments from Sasa & Jess on last Saturday gathering.

I let my hubby do the analysis first, then I told the SA I will be back to do mine, cuz my bro & sis was calling me to meet them upstairs. But after my sis paid for the bills @ the Gallery, we head back to Rene for the hair analysis. This time, all of us had enrolled to get the analysis, my bro & wife, my sis & myself (hubby done before this).

The SA - Ms. Serene, she is really helpful and provide us with handful info. She said I had a dry scalp with some dead skin where I will need to scrub my hair scalp to clean off my scalp. Basically everything is healthy, except for the oily pores & dry scalp. So she recommended few products for me... She intro their STAR product which is Complex 5 @ RM 126 (U.P: RM 140 - 10% discount0(Jess is luring for it!!) and few other products which suitable for me & my hubby.

After that, she told me that if I want to do treatment, I should go directly to Pavillion where they have their own boutique or treatment spa available. They are having Isetan card member promo now until 31 Aug where they give 10% discount counter wide. Whereas, if you can't make it to go now, no prob, as Isetan will have another promo where you can buy Fioravanti No Rinse (Detangling Spray) for only RM 68 (U.P: RM 85) - start 1 Sept 09 for 1 week only (limited to 50 sets only)

Beside, I also bought a starter pack for color hair set which comprised of 1 shampoo, 2 hair masks & 1 hair spray for color hair @ RM 70.

GWP: 1 travel bag + 4 travel size sample

Total damage at Rene Furterer is RM 196. Here's my haul:-

Complex 5, Colored Hair Starter Pack, GWP & Samples after analysis & Consultation

My haul - Complex 5 & Starter pack

GWP

They had few treatments available at their Spa Boutique in Pavillion:-

Basic treatment - RM 60
Special Spa Treatment - RM 240 (buy 1 free 1 - until 31 Aug)

My Haul from Beautilicous Warehouse Sale

Another warehouse sale in town! The Beautilicious Warehouse sale....

I am quite new to this brand, as I browsed through Janice's blog on last Friday and found out about this warehouse sale. Straight away I checked with my sister in law - Cammy, she told me that I can only find Beautilicious products in Watson and I went to Watson on Saturday with Cammy. I found some make up kits which really lovely and most importantly their Brushes set! Something that I eye-ing for so long and I love their texture as well! Very soft!

After the survey at Watson, we started to plan and budget for the warehouse sale!

I met Cammy at MV after work, but it was raining so heavily and I guess nothing can stop gals from going to "Retail Therapy" (term used by Vonvon for shopping). Haha... I arrived at their office at Kuchai around 6.30pm and I could not get any parking space around... I had to park my car at the back lane of the building and run over to the building, as raining really heavy and it's so windy!

When we arrived, there are few staffs around in the office, I guess I will be their last customer! I asked permission from the staff whether I can take photos of the cosmetics on the table to blog about it later? She said okay and walked out from that little room. But came in back with her CEO - Ms. Julie, pretty & charming lady! Guess what? I will rate it 5 star *wink wink* as all their staffs are really friendly and kind.

In fact, Ms. Julie had introduced few of their star products to me, such as:-

a) The Magic Wand - Liquid Eye Liner (easy to use, even for amateur like me)
b) Puff Up Souffle - 2 way cake with SPF 15 (double function - Sunblock & protect our silky skin)
c) Eye Majic Wonder Eyes (Instant eye applicator, easy to use - apply, slide & blend it, all can be done within 10 seconds)
d) Arch it Right Eyebrow Kit (help to fix or trim eyebrow with 4 eyebrow stencil)
e) Dream Holiday Kit (Travel must-have ~ All in 1 kits)
f) Jelly Beans Lip Pallette (bring this 8-in-1 pallette and u will be able to change lips colors as u like)

Well, of course I am very happy with my haul and probably will go back again tomorrow to get other stuffs which I really likes. Let me do a small price report and show you gals my haul!

THE BEST WAY OF STAYING OUT OF H1N1 TROUBLE

RECENTLY, I saw photos in newspapers showing people wearing "surgical masks" at shopping malls, schools, mamak stalls and other public areas. I have even noticed people wearing them out in the open with no one around.

Because of this, I would like to explain why the mask may do more harm than good.

The H1N1 virus is not airborne. To be considered an airborne virus, the microorganism would have to survive or remain in the air for long periods of time. The H1N1 virus does not stay airborne.

I have noticed many people wearing masks in crowded places. However, places like airports, shopping malls and schools are full of germs and bacteria. If a small amount of bacteria gets into a hole in the mask, you will provide a breeding ground for the bacteria, which may lead to an illness or infection. The moisture you produce in your mask is perfect for bacteria and viruses, and may be a recipe for disaster.

The way to prevent exposure to H1N1 virus is to avoid physical contact with people who may be sick or infected. Also avoid commonly touched surfaces like escalator railings, poles and public toilet doorknobs.

The H1N1 virus usually spreads when someone touches surfaces with the virus and then touches his own nose, eyes or mouth.

Washing your hands frequently is the best defense against exposure.

And yes, the virus may travel from point A to point B in the air. But it will drop, not stay airborne.

Wearing a mask is only good at helping you not to spread your illness to others if you are infected.

Kiehl's Party

Before the party start! Ice Man is welcoming all the guest!

On 8th August 09, Vonvon invited almost 30 of her loyal blog followers & readers to the blasting Kiehl's Party at Pavillion!

Well, that was a very busy Saturday but it was the most enjoyable 1! Why make me said that? Simply because I am also an invited guest of vonvon's Kiehl's party!!! Haha... that was my first time stepping into Kiehl's, had always stared at the shop whenever I went to 1U, cuz the display of the shop is so welcoming, but somehow the SA looks so LC lo... But I had changed my impression after attending to Vonvon's Kiehl's Party! The KCRs in Pavillion are so friendly! Nadia - the presenter did a very good job on giving us a lesson on how and where Kiehl's from!

After the presentation, Vonvon had requested all her readers to intro themselves, no one can actually escape from it! T.T... At least not me... probably too big to hide!! Hahaha.... moment after the introduction session, the most excited parts of the party, to try on the products!!

I tried so many things... but keep resist myself to buy from the shop, yet I had failed! I bought a dandruff shampoo and of course, I also got some free samples for trial purpose! I didn't know that Kiehl's can be so generous! Salute Kiehl's! As far as I know, there is no such company in the market being so generous in giving out samples for customer to try!

What's more on that day? For every RM 100 you spent, you will entitled RM 10 discount immediately from your purchase!!

After I bought the shampoo for dandruff home, I can't wait til try it out immediately to see how it works! Come to my surprise, after 3 days of usage of the shampoo, my dandruff problems seem to be better! I don't see dandruff peeling off from my skin! After 7 days of usage, I do not have major dandruff problems anymore! Now, I am using it everyday to make sure it is all cure!

Nevertheless, every invited guests are entitled to bring home a freebie goodie bag! It consists of Ultra Facial Moisturizer 30ml & Hair Conditioner & Grooming Aid 65ml (both are deluxe size). On top of the designed door gift, they also giving out the sachets of the products we are interested for us to try before purchasing the full size! I am happy to bring home freebies + 1 bottle of Dandruff shampoo!

Here's some highlight of the Kiehl's Party!

Freebies/Door gift (2 bottles of deluxe size samples)

After I saw the significant changed on the dandruff problems, I called my sister immediately as she had serious dandruff problems where she tried out many types of shampoo and still cannot help to solve her problems. I told her what Kiehl's did magic on my dandruff problems, she immediately show interest to try on. I took her to Kiehl's in Isetan KLCC to buy the same shampoo I recommended! And guess what, we brought home with 3 sachets each of Ultimate White Surface Brightening Exfoliator!!!

I think Kiehl's products are really natural and it really makes wonders!!

As per von's blog, they are having Merdeka promo where every RM 100 purchase, you will be entitled RM 10 discount immediately on the purchase! My sis just told me that she had just spent about RM 450 (after discount) from Kiehl's Mid Valley! But she said the KCR is lack of products knowledge, as she asked her about the products and skin type problem, the KRC unable to answer her question! Anyway, I am sure she is happy with her haul today! I will try to blog about what she bought on this weekend when I go back to my parent's house! Well, as for me, I think I will not missed this opportunity to grab something I want from the Merdeka sale!!

Boy & gals, Kiehl's products are really good, please don't hesitate to try it, as you can try it before you purchase the full size! So, don't wait, go grab your favorite from Kiehl's today!!!
