    Levi's Jeans

    Does anyone know if Levis Malaysia has a Exchange your old jeans for a discount coupon going on at the moment.Like the promo they are having in Levis Singapore. The thing about buying from Singapore is that the prices are already more expensive then here to begin with.

    BB Cream

    My humble review on Skinfood's Multi Mushroom: Texture:Medium Coverage:Sheer to medium Oil control:Good Verdict: One of my favorite bb creams.I love the scent.It smells the nicest among all the bb creams I've used.Application was smooth and oil control is good. Really suit my skin.Didn't oxidise much on me.Not too drying for my skin.Though it is recommended for those with dry or matured skin.which I think this really suit my dry combination skin.It also didn't turn greyish on me and the colour match is just right for me.Though,no radiance seen.Keen to try Jasmine water or Lioele's water drop after this. Btw,does anyone know where I can find Ianti bb cream in JB?Thanks

    BB Cream

    Its been awhile since I last used BB cream.Finally the Skinfood Multi Mushroom has landed on our shores..yea..I was so excited I got one in Shade 2 yesterday. Am yet to try it out but I really love the smell that comes with it.I tried it on my hand and it didn't feel bad at all.Shall use it tomorrow and see if it really is as good. I've swapped off some of my bb creams because I have just too many at home and can't possibly finish all of them.On top of it,I use Liquid foundations as well ( i rotate btw liquid foundation & bb cream),I have this theory to prevent my skin from becoming too immune to a certain product. Below is my review for Etude House's Magic BB pact & their Precious Mineral BB cream (launching in July). Etude House Magic BB pact (RM69.90) Texture:Dry mousse kind of bb cream.A little thick & dry.Comes with a foundation brush (quality is quite good). Coverage:Medium to full coverage.Managed to even cover dark circles. Fragrance: No fragrance.The smell is a bit off.Don't like it. Oil Control:Good Verdict: I use MAC's prep & prime underneath it,the texture felt really dry.Later on I tried it by mixing it with a liquid illuminizer and the texture was just nice.More sheer and blendable.It is difficult to use at first because it becomes dry the moment u apply onto your face,thus must be fast in blending it in.I applied it with my fingers as the brush couldn't contour as well.Managed to cover light acne scars and pores.The amazing thing is,I expect to see my face all dry & cakey,but it didn't cake at all.And even with it on for 8 hrs in an air con work place,it didn't crack or dry.Comes with spf 30 so I can skip sunblock.I applied powder on my nose and it also didn't cake. It did brigten my face upon application.Though not much.Reccommended for those with oilier skin while for those with dry skin can consider their liquid one. Etude House Precious Mineral BB cream (available in July) Texture:in between (not thick nor too runny) Coverage: sheer Fragrance:none Oil control:Good Verdict: Was given a small tube as a sample and tried it on two occassions.No brightening effect at all.I expect it to have a brigtening effect b'cos most mineral make up do give that kinda effect.I was given the one in the white tube,suitable for oily skin.As my skin is combi-more towards the dry side,this didn't work for me.It did cover up a little of my acne scars not as good as the pact though.My skin felt dry after that.No powder was applied cos it was so matte.(I didn't use any primer prior to this). Keen to try the other version but when I went to Etude House to purchase some items and I spent above RM30 the sales girl didn't give me any sample.It was just a week after I purchased the pact.sob..I would reccommend this for babes with combi/oily skin. Etude House Magic Cream (RM 59.90??) Texture:in between Coverage:Sheer to medium Fragrance:none Oil control:Good Verdict:Not really blown away by this bb cream.Felt very ordinary to me.Not worth the buy. So far all the Etude House bb creams colour matches mine perfectly.Because most bb creams I've tried all end up looking a little too light on me or turn greyish after some time.These don't. I'm expecting Lioele's water drop bb cream in my mail soon.Shall review it once I've tried it. Any other babes have any interesting bb creams to review?I'm starting to be come addicted to bb creams all over again.

    BB Cream

    I've seriously not been active for such a long time.Been using Dr G Brightening balm recently.Though I alternate this with 2-way cake and The Make Up store's sport foundation.I find tat Dr G somehow turns grey on me.So seldom use it nowadays. btw,does anyone know how much Etude's bb cream (the purple one) and thier bb balm pact retailing for?TIA

    BB Cream

    I succumbed to temptation and went to buy Dr G's Brightening Balm.Oh my..its now my HG for bb cream.The coverage is good.oil control is good too.The colour suits me too.Was thinking of getting BRTC Jasmin initially but then read reviews that it made some gers look too fair in photos.So decided to give it a miss.I'm still addicted to bb creams.I haf a Missha Perfect Cover coming my way soon..now I've got to find new homes for my 'neglected' bb creams..lol..

    BB Cream

    Some bb creams do clog pores.Those high in silicone contents.I used Skinfood Aloe and at one time I had a lot of clogged pores.Now after intensive deep cleansing mask and proper removal of bb cream,the clogged pores are better.Occassional pimples though.Not all bb creams clog pores.Read in another forum that BRTC's Jasmin water and Multiplex clogs pores. So far Dr Jart Black detox does not.I wanted to get BRTC's Jasmin water,now I tink I'll gif it a miss and get Dr G instead. Bt Indah is really far..had a hard time finding the place.but its quite big the place.Like Tebrau City.Etude House is on the 2nd floor if I remember correctly The face shop is 2 shops away followed by Skinfood all in the same row.Finally,more Korean brands in JB.Just dun like the crammed parking.I even read that Ianti is opened in city sq.

    Seishu: Its the newly opened AEON Jusco in Taman Bukit Indah.I saw Etude House,the Skinfood,The Face Shop & Sasa there. Yes bb creams are addictive!! I laid my hands on Dr G's Brigtening Balm sample..finally..can try it out.already itching to buy Dr G or BRTC for quite some time. Tried Dr G's Hydraintensive before and found it to be good..too bad they dun sell it at Sasa here.Now itching to try thier brightening balm since a lot say the oil control is good. Do u gals put on powder after bb cream?cos now its end of the year and my skin is wierd,it changes according to weather.So now my nose is dry at times.putting on powder makes it worse.hai...if without powder,jus feels wierd..lol..Any reccommandations on what i shud do?spray those evian water thingy?

    BB Cream

    bb cream is actually a make up base and foundation.If it has sunblock in it,it is also a sun base.U can use it as a moisturiser.Though I still use my basic skincare steps before putting on bb cream. Tried BRTC Glossy Shining the other day. Coverage: Sheer Oil control: Fair Radiance: yes Overall verdict:I don't think i'll get this bb cream.It reminds me of Missha Shiny.I prefer something with better oil control. Used Skinfood's Aloe today again,and this time it actually worked quite well on my skin.coverage is fair.Oil control is good. Any other good bb cream to reccommand tat has good oil control?Thinking of trying out Revlon's new foundation and Maybelline's mineral foundation.My lemmings nv end.

    BB Cream

    Nope.I dun find the bb cream sticky.Its harder to blend though.As the liquid isn't as fluid as the silver.I have difficulty blending it in sometimes.I feel that the black one is alrite for me.Not my fave bb cream.As I dun see any glow after applying.Some users of Dr Jart black commented that it looked ashy on them.The silver one makes me too fair(I'm already ZA 21).I have combination skin drier on my cheeks.So I usually layer on a bit of powder on my t-zone.The colour match is good.I think u shud try to get a sample of it to try out and see if it suits u. Shall be trying out BRTC's Multiplex sample later.shall review it next time.

    BB Cream

    Watsons Singapore only sells BRTC whitening & Wrinkle repair. Guardian Singapore sells Jasmine water,Multiplex,Glossy Shining. I always try out samples before I buy.To see if it is suitable for me first before investing in a full tube.After all BB creams are not cheap. I received both Skin79 crystal pact and Hot pink pact.Tried the crystal pact.Here's my humble review: Skin79 Crystal Pact Colour: One shade only.Matches all skin tone (according to skin79).I'm ZA 21,MAC NW20.So,I'm rather fair and it matches my skin well Oil Control: Not really good.My t-zone turned shiny after 3 hours. Radiance: yes.there is definitely a bit of radiance.You can see the powder contain some small shiny shimmers.Didn't make me look like a disco ball at all. Staying powder: I used it alone without any bb cream so the staying power is pretty good.Lasted 8 hrs. Coverage: Sheer when used alone.If paired with bb cream coverage should be better Verdict: When I first opened it,I was wondering where the sponge was,it turns out they store the sponge in another compartment above the powder.A little hassle to get the sponge out.The sponge they provided is alright.I might replace it after some use.Doubt it can withstand my cleaning. Overall,this pact is quite good.Gave me a nice glow with minimal coverage.I use this alone or with my bb cream.Was advised by my facialist not to use 2-way cake as it clogs my pores and made my skin look patchy.Though it isn't as good as my HG Covermark but comparing the price and how light and sheer it is.Its a great bargain.
