Comic Fiesta 2011 @ KLCC: My Cosplay & Beauty Haul (pic intensive!)

This post is somewhat the continuation of my previous X'mas-New Year post. ^^ (Read HERE for the previous post)

Last year Dec 16-19, I and a few friends went to Malaysia, Kuala Lumpur for a Cosplay event, Comic Fiesta 2011. The CF 2011 was held at Kuala Lumpur Convention Centre (KLCC) and we stayed only a walking distance away, which is the Impiana Hotel.

The Petronas Twin Towers taken at night with Iphone. I posted this pic on that day in Instagram.

This is not my first time going to KL as previous was a work trip at some ulu KL industrial area, but I totally never been in KL town area before so most of the shopping places were recommended by my friends. Our first stop was at Nandos @ Sungei Wang. Heard that Nandos in Malaysia is 100% yummier than Singapore + cheap + no service charge! So yah, I tried one of their set meal. It was OK for me. My friends mentioned that the chicken thigh has shrunk and the taste wasn't that yummy like last time. They were rather disappointed.
The MILD flag is actually the spiciness level. I love adding the Garlic sauce from the bottle, my food taste nicer with the garlic ^^

Then we proceed to Sungei Wang for shopping, cos my friends said Sungei Wang is the best shopping place in KL, its like Far East Plaza, there are many levels and many shops in there and all their stuffs are CHEAAPPPppp~.
And what did I do? I went to a SALON to BLEACH my hair. (Not cheap though, cost me RM400!) Lolx~ I wanted to do it because I'm need my hair to be yellow for my cosplay on the CF Day 2. Below is a magazine which I was reading while I'm doing my hair. Fashion bloggers magazine! When will Singapore have their own Fashion/Beauty Bloggers magazine? o_O The contents inside the mag was very interesting! ^^

We then had Korean BBQ for dinner! Funny thing for this restaurant is that the staff in there said "SA WA DI KA!" to welcome customers. Isn't that THAI????!!! Lolx!~ Anyways, I LOVEEEEEEE The meat!!!! Its tender, thickness was just nice, so I don't find it hard to chew but yet, its thick enough to spill juices inside my mouth. *mouth watering meat~* I was still craving for more after we finished cos th BBQ set was shared among 5 of us. =p

And my small Haul @ Sungei Wang... Nothing much eh? I was in need of face mist (forgot to bring to KL) so dropped by Etude house to get 1 ^^ and look at the pretty paper bag they gave me~ BTW, it was a man who served me at Etude house.. Shouldn't singapore start recruiting male BAs now? We are like WAYYYYY behind! Hong Kong, Korea, Malaysia they all employ handsome male BAs! SG should have too! >,<

After half a day of shopping & eating, we all PENGS cos we din have any sleep at all on the previous day!!!!!~ (The long couch was REALLY COMFY!~ <^o^<)

The next day was Comic Fiesta Day 1. I wasn't cosplaying as I only intend to do for CF Day 2. And here shows me in my newly bleached hair. (Its SUPA DRY I TELL YOU! >_< I think I could die if I don't mask it.)

Most cosplayers were all standing in the holding area walking around taking pics, including us. hahax~ I didn't really took alot of the cosplayer photos as I'm about 80% handicap myself..^^" Cos I need to carry my long skirt tail when I walk, otherwise people will step on it!

Finally, we on our way walking back to hotel via the overhead bridge. The bridge was always empty, so we jumped on the chance, had a few shots of our own before going back hotel. ^^

Photos by Data~

Yuanie, Hoshi, Data, mi!

Data took some pics for me at the lobby. One of them is this which I'm sitting down! This pic enhances my blue eyes really well! Uh i mean blue lens~ While the blur pic on the right is taken using Iphone with help from Yuanie @ the corridor outside our room. ^^"

On the 4th day, which is our last day in KL, Hoshi and I went shopping. YEAH, at last! (Yuanie was at a photoshoot)
We walked from our hotel to Pavilion. There were tons of BEARS displayed outside the Pavilion, featuring each country's paintings & designs on the bear. Some of the designs are pretty obvious where its from, I compiled a few bears to show to all as seen below.
Anyone can guess the replica version of winnie the pooh is from_____???? And guess which is Singapore's???

We then walk to Sungei Wang, and on the way went in other malls to take a look.
I also went in Sephora and found out that their stuffs are sold slightly cheaper than Singapore! I din buy anything though, cos the lighting in there was Orange, I can't see the swatches whether they are beige/yellow/orange or wat! I hate their lightings <∆<"

And so.. that's about much for my first overseas trip to a cosplay event ^_^ Perhaps, the next time would be Japan! Looking forward to it!

Product Review: Bioré Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash


Graphics credits to Biore & TheSampleStore (some graphics amended by me)

░░░░░ DO YOU KNOW? ░░░░░

Japanese ladies always try to reduce the stress at every skin care steps!
Japanese girls’ habits:
- Foaming Net to create quality foam to cushion stress
- Limits actual cleansing to 1min.

Foam is the secret behind effective, gentle cleansing.
Japanese ladies puts a lot of effort (2-3x the time of cleansing) to generate consistent smooth fluffy foam (with foaming net) to:
1. Clean better with finer bubbles
2. Cushion the cleansing stress from hand on face

Ideal Foam is……
1.Consistent
2.Dense and don’t drip even when flipped upside down
3.Smooth and bouncy
4.Very small bubbles
* Lather by hand is flat, inconsistent with large bubbles that drip

▒▒▒▒▒ Biore Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash (write-up) ▒▒▒▒▒
Baby smooth yet clean after feel!
Collagen – Moisturising
Ultra fine foam – Better cleansing abilities (Ultra fine foam is made up of bubbles that are smaller than pores -200 micron)
Gentle, effective and fun cleansing experience:
- Dense, soft foam so gentle on skin is dispensed with just a pump
- Spread well, rinse well

More enjoyable cleansing:
1. Dense, soft foam with just a pump
2. Cushiony foam that is gentle and prevent cleansing stress on face (High density and Bounciness of foam cushions the hand pressure on skin and acts as a massager)
3.Spread well, rinse well

Recently, TheSampleStore sent me the Biore Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash for review.
Its the NEW range of facial wash by Kao Biore! You might have seen it at Watson shelves lately, their packaging is so cute and pinkish, it draws almost every passer-by's attention! =D

The facial wash is made in JAPAN, hence the japanese words on the front of the packaging. The back part was sticked over so we can understand.. If you peel off this sticker, you'll see the japanese wordings printed on the bottle itself.
On the sticker, prints the Manufacturing date (Mine shows 16062011). Note there's soluble collagen in the ingredient list. I assume that is the collagen that they are talking about? ^^

Here shows how the fine bubbles dispensed out from the bottle looks like... After spreading it out with my fingers, the bubbles are gone, leaving a sticky feeling on my hand.

Following 2 pics shows:
- 1 full pumpof the Biore facial wash foam
- 2 full pumps of the Biore facial wash foam

2 full pumps of foam on my palm and when I tilt it downwards, they still stay on my palm!

My usual facial cleansing routine:
- After removing makeup, slightly damp my face
- Dispense facial foam on palm
- Adds a little water to both hands and starts to lather
- After lathering, bubbles are formed and I start to cleanse my face with the foam
- After awhile, the foam gets lesser, I will add alittle more water on hand and lather somemore
- Then cleanse again with the foam, concentrating at corners, edges, jawline and areas that have bigger pores so as to fully remove all dirt and makeup from face.
- Lastly, rinse face

And now, with Biore Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash, my New facial cleansing routine is:
- After removing makeup, slightly damp my face
- Dispense 2 pumps of Biore facial wash foam on palm
- Start cleansing my face with the foam
- After awhile, the bubbles gets lesser, I will either choose to add alittle more water on hand and lather, or to use another 1 pump of Biore facial wash
- Then cleanse again with the foam, concentrating at corners, edges, jawline and areas that have bigger pores so as to fully remove all dirt and makeup from face.
- Lastly, rinse face

Review of Biore Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash:
- Lovely light floral smell, very much reminds me of other Biore products which have similar scent! ^^
- Hassle free, as it minus alot of steps from my usual face cleansing routine. Saves me lots of time on lathering!
- Bouncy ultra fine foam that spreads easily to my whole face and neck, smooth and light on my skin
- The collagen enriched foam makes my skin feel silky smooth after cleansing
- When foam rinsed off from my face, it doesn't at all make my skin feels tight and dry, it almost makes me think that I have put on moisturiser ^◊^
- Usually after my face is towel-dried, the corners of eyes feel the tightest (skin around my eyes are the most dry) but after using Biore Facial wash, I no longer feel so. It only has a slight tight feeling but not like as tight as the last time I often have. ^_^
**Even though I feel that Biore Facial wash is really as great as they advertised, but I still feel that once awhile I need to swap to other facial foam because I am rather used to that old squeaky clean and tight after feel. Yes, the thought might sound alittle crazy but its just how I feel, for now. ^^ Biore Facial wash can cleanse as good & clean as my other cleansers just that it doesn't give me that squeaky feeling anymore, thus I kinda miss that squeaky dry feeling on my face. Lolx~

For you readers!
You can now play Biore Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash Spot & Win game on Facebook and WIN $300 H&M vouchers! There are also 10 consolation prizes worth $80 of Kao products to be won.

So, get ready to HIT YOUR MOUSE BUTTON! ^_^ *CLICK the below pic, it'll bring you to the game page*

Bioré Marshmallow Whip Facial Wash retailing at S$13.90
It has refill pack price at $10.90 (however I'm not sure if its still available at the stores ^^")
Available at major supermaket and medical stores.

Thank you for reading~ ^_^

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)

Product Review: Kao Biore Makeup Remover ~ Hottie Pinky Sweet LOTD & OOTD

Clicky the pics to enlarge!

During November, I was contacted by Huimin from Kao (Singapore) to review Biore products. As I had some rashes happening on my face and neck for the past month, hence I delayed my review for Kao Biore products. ^.^"

Kao (Singapore) sent me a parcel that includes:
1. Kao Bioré Cleansing Oil Cotton Sheets (Regular Pack)
2. Kao Bioré Makeup Remover for Eye & Lip (130ml) (I call it Point Remover)
3. A DIY First Aid Box (Cute isn't it??!!! 》▽《)


When I open up the First Aid box... I saw...
See how cute all the products were packaged and they even sticked on a mini advert tag on the products~ (what do you call that thingy?)

 

Kao Biore Cleansing Oil Cotton Facial Sheets & Makeup Remover

The Packaging

I like their simple and sweet packaging design plus the colours used are very lady-like.
One thing I find that the Cleasing wipes is overly wrapped up. I had to unwrapped 3 times inorder to get to the actual product.

Later, I found out there were cute illustrations drawn at the back of the cardboard wrapping but they were all written in japanese, how I wish I could read them as it seems that they are providing a very useful tip of using the wipes! Anyways, i think by looking at the illustrations, we all should know what they meant... ^.^"

Kao Biore Cleansing Oil Cotton Facial Sheets (Pack)

The pack within the Cleansing Wipes container was fully sealed up nicely. There were again, many instructions all written in Japanese on the packaging which I had no idea what they were writing about.. LOLx..
To see 48 sheets refill pack, clicky here: http://www.kao.com/sg/biore/bio_clensing_cotton_oilin_01.html
Kao Biore Makeup Remover for Eye & Lip

I loving the simple bottle design, it reminds me of mineral water bottles (though I don't really drink lot of mineral water..^,^" but I always like the design of a crystal clear bottle with very interesting content within it)
Only for this point Makeup Remover, we need to shake it well before using it.
Face Makeup Remover like THIS, do not need shaking. (See my review on Biore Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover HERE & HERE)

 

BEFORE and AFTER USE - Biore Makeup Remover for Eye & Lip
Steps:
-I drenched my cotton pad with lots of Remover, and I pressed the cotton pad onto my eyelid, covering the whole eye and eyebrow.
-With a little pressure, I hold it there for about 10 secs and longer.
-Then I do a swiping side move, and WHAM!! My false lash along with all the makeup came off!
-Below shows before and after use. The remover wiped off all my eyeshadows, eyeliner, mascara, eyebrow mascara, false eyelash, concealer and foundation.
My thoughts:
I love how quickly and how thoroughly it cleanse off all the makeup. However, I still find my eyes a little tingling and vision becomes alittle blur when the content gets into my eyes. The tingling feeling is bearable though.
Overall, I love it. :) It is probably gonna be standing side by side with my current Holy Grail makeup point remover from now on. \^o^/*~
First time showing my Bare Bare droopy eye.... *shys*

 

BEFORE and AFTER USE - Biore Cleansing Oil Cotton Facial Sheets
Below shows my very basic everyday LOTD with a little eyeliner (usually I don't put on eyeliner when I go work)

Steps:
-Open the container lid, using 2 fingers, I gave tissue wipes a hard press until I see the 'oil' content flowing towards the point that I pressed.
(This is to show that the sheets are not too dried up if I were to leave the wipes unused for a certain period of time, and I find that by doing so, the most top tissue wipe will absorb alot of the 'oil' from below, which would be good as I need as much 'oil' as possible to remove my makeup. ^_^)
-Pull off a sheet and start wiping off the makeup from face with down and out stroke motions.
-For my eyes & lips, I will fold the tissue to half, and use the folded corner and lightly brush along corners and edges. So that the liners will be able to be removed thoroughly.
-Below shows the total number of sheets I used to fully cleanse my makeup face. - 4 sheets!
-After which, I used a cottonpad filled with point remover and cleanse my face once again. I found some traces of foundation on it (See most bottom pic), meaning that the wipes weren't very efficient in thoroughly removing the makeup.

My thoughts:
I find that the sheets are rather dry . When I used it on my face, the wipes felt rough and after using 2-3 sheets, i felt my skin started to burn alittle. Not physically, more like its my own thoughts. ^_^" Too much rubbing of the wipes makes certain part of my face (such as my jaw/ below cheek areas) dry.
As an overall, I would much prefer to use these wipes as a corrector for my ruined makeup.
And for a quick makeup remover during my after-cosplay, that is, to remove my thick wayang cosplay makeup and retouch with a little powder after that so people would not keep looking at my overly makeup face. hahahx~ ^o^

Sorry, Imma not going to show any Bare Bare face! *shys*

 

 

Lastly, some cute scene.. My very KPO paper-eating Mimi!
Not for sale

That's all for my review! Any questions do comment under this entry!~

 

And now for some LOTD & OOTD~~~
Very overdue LOTD, taken way back during Nov.. ^.^"
I name it Hottie Pinky Sweet! (Sorry if I dun really look that hottie nor that sweet... but Pinky, Yes I AM!)

Woo~ My eyes are so blue! Thanks so much to Rohto!!

Pink pink Eyeshadow! If I remember correctly, I'm using Loreal HIP Adventurous (Light Beige & Pink)
Eyeliner - K-Palette 1 Day Tattoo Real Lasting Eyeliner WP #Super Black
Foundation - Gemstone Aqua-base Pudding Foundation SPF20 PA++
Others... I don't quite remember. ^.^"

I was looking at my pair of hot pink ankle length stockings which I bought not long ago @ GMarket.. Then I suddenly came out with this look.. LOLx..
But ended up never wearing that stockings cos I think it will attract too much attention to my feet! ^___^""

 

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)

Fashion, Cosplay & Beauty Collective Hauls: SKINC, Fasio, Redken, Laneige...

YEAH!! Halloween is coming soon!
And so here you see Miss Angry Hole-ly High Waist Skirt making some comments....

Miss Angry Hole-ly High Waist Skirt $69: Chinatown Market 3rd level (I got discount and bought its at $58)
Outer layer is stretchable cotton, inner is jersey fabric. Now, i think this skirt can only be hand wash... hmm..
The 'eyes' and 'mouth' you see are fully made of chains. They are rather heavy.. and they are stitched to the outer layer.. I find it very punk lookin' and interesting so i got it! (even though its uber ex...) Its one and only piece or so the salesgirl said..

Elastic suspenders with rubber backing $6: Chinatown Market 3rd level
One of my long ago cosplay plan before I cut my yellow hair and now.. =\
Character: Lele ; Manga: THE ONE

SKINC Pure Revival Peel: $30~40 (discounted)
I forgotten the original price as the BA was very kind enough to pay for me using her credit card first so i could enjoy the discount.
I had been using ot for sometime now, I find this is unlike any other ordinary peeling gel.
When gel is spread onto face, it immediately turned watery. Waits for 5-10secs, some parts already start showed residues which are actually the dead skin cells without even touching the gel yet. When starts to do circular motions, more dead skin cells (residues) formed.
After the gel fully turned to dry residues, wash off and you get a very squeaky clean skin! I like it! =D
However, daily use makes my skin rather dry..(Not the very dry dry, more to combi-dry skin. Note that I have combi-oily skin last time) So I need to control myself from using it too often (because i like the result too much~), although BA advised that it could be used every 1-2 days. I probably seeing myself using it every once a week unless my skin turns rough too quickly.

<-- Clicky to read!

Watsons Hauls and Gifts!

miwitch's Video Style Product Review: Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover

Few days ago I already posted my review for Biore remover, this time round, I'm going VIDEO STYLE!

I got excited when I receive a request from BeautyMap to do a video of it. SOOOooo excited that I actually told them my palms are sweating! I don't do videos at all so I almost freak out upon getting that request.

BUT, in another way I think its fun too. Probably once i get used to videos, I will keep on posting vids instead of pics.. =p (lazy ah... and when I get darn lazy than this, I'll start to talk in the vid.. ^_^")

So... this is my FIRST EVER VIDEO (self shoot, self made), a totally new idea of how to review a remover! SOoOoo wacky that you guys probably would laugh at me, but DON'T LAUGH! hahahax....~ (right, i'm laughing at myself)
This video is super long... 6mins+! (its more like a tutorial than a review! =_=" *sweats*) And took me 2 hours to shoot cos my cam ran out of battery, SD card ran out of space... I kept running back to my comp to upload the vids so I can take more. What an experience for my first time huh? =_="

 

 

 

FRANKLY.... speaking, The review vid is NOT really my first vid.. THIS IS!
I made this vid as I was trying out the new DLed Windows Movie Maker. This vid definitely is nicer!
You got handsome cat and pretty dog to see, what else do you want more? o_O

Something funny happened @ 00:30.. SPOT IT! ^.^

ENJOY!!

Product Review: Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover

Thanks to BeautyMap, I was given a chance to review the Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover. Last week, I collected it and was given about 5 days to try out before I review it.

I know this product had been out long ago, few people had already reviewed and said that its was good. I'm glad that I'm given this chance to try it! ^_^

Here is the packaging:
I like the product design and packaging at first sight. Clear lookin' and slick. The advert is pretty nice too, and it always kept me wonder how effective this makeup remover is, able to remove all traces of makeup just like the pic... Hmmm...

It clearly shows the manufacturing date at the back. I assume its storage life is about 6-12 months if stored in cool dry place. I usually place cleansers in my toilet, so their storage life are shorten by half as the toilet is a place too moist to store anything. But I do not have to worry about storage life at current as I usually finish the cleansers within 3 months. ^.^

Before I continue more on the review, I shall show my LOTD that I wore on the day I collected my Biore MU remover. This is to test how effective the remover will be.
Here are the products I use on mi face:
- Shiseido AquaLabel White Protect Milk UV
- SANA Pore Putty Makeup Base Clear
- Estee Lauder Double Wear Light Liquid Foundation in Intensity 2.0
- MAC Studio Finish Concealer
- SANA PorePutty Moist Face Powder
- I nuovi Facescape in Malibu Barbie (Bronze)
On mi eyes:
- Majolica Majorca Eyebrow Pencil
- (Kanebo)KATE Gel eye shadow GD-1
- Majolica Majorca Eyeshadows WT963 & BK922
- MAC Powerpoint Eye Pencil Engraved
- Make Up For Ever Crayon Waterproof Eyeliner Pencil
- K-Palette 1 Day Tattoo Real Lasting Eyeliner WP #Super Black
- KissMe Heorine Make long & curl mascara
On mi lips:
- Shiseido Perfect Roughe BE109
- Kiss Me Heavy Rotation Sexy Enamel Gloss in Cool Beige

These are whole lot of stuffs that the remover is gonna remove!

As seen in the above pics, I have LARGE pores @ cheeks and nose. So the cleanser will have to go deep enough into my pores to bring out all the makeup-s and dirt-s. XD~

Using Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover
-As like how I normally would use a oil cleanser, I pour the content onto dry palm. Although the packaging wrote 1 teaspoon (so little?), I would prefer to use more as I have quite alot of makeup and waterproof eyeliner to remove. So I got about 2-3 tablespoon amount.
-I spread the remover all over my dry face and work in small circular motions to dissolve all the makeup. Immediately I can smell the floral scent, really smells nice! Love it~ ^_^
-Next, i put a little water onto my hands and spread it to my face to emulsify the remover, but when I open my eyes, to my surprise the remover didn't emulsify! It just turned watery but the colour of the content is still transparent clear. It was unlike the usual oil cleansers that I use which will turned milky white in contact with water. And the remover sting my eyes alittle..
-With the watery content now, I concentrate to work around the eyes, nose and lips areas.
-Then I wash off and pat dry. I felt my skin clean, refresh, non-oily! but.... an itsy bitsy dry on my cheeks.
-With just 1 round of makeup remover, it was not able to remove my waterproof eyeliner. I understand most girls would prefer a All in 1 remover so that they could use lesser time to remove stubborn/waterproof makeups at 1 go. But Biore had came out with a eye and lip remover , so there would be no reason why we shouldn't use the point remover to get rid of stubborn MUs. hahahx~
-Once again, I tried cleansing off with about 1 teaspoon of remover targetting to point areas. It was still not able to fully remove my eyeliner.
-Then, I use a cotton pad filled with my own eye MU remover and go through the whole face again. This is done to see if Biore remover had indeed removed all the makeup on my face. And the cotton pad only gave me specks of eyeliner remainings, no foundation or watsoever on the pad! Woot!
-I wash off with water again and check that my face is clear with all traces of makeup. Happy! ^_^

Notes
-I feel that this water-base formula MU remover's 'thickness' is equivalent to that of an oil cleanser. I had used several brands' oil cleansers, some are very thick and some are watery. Bioré's seem to fall just right inbetween this 2 categories.
-I read some reviews that the remover actually 'clings' to the face so alot of water is needed to wash it off. I didn't experience that mainly because I SPLASH water onto my face with alittle more force than a normal person would. (hahahx~ ^∇^") The force might have been the reason why I didn't feel that I need a longer time to wash off the remover.

Bioré Hydra-Clear Makeup Remover retails at $22.90 in Watsons. For a 200ml remover at this price, it is quite reasonable and affordable.

There isn't a reason why I shouldn't get this remover again in future. Basically it removes makeup well except for super waterproof MU like eyeliners/ mascaras.
For waterproof MU, a eye and lip remover should be used. My usual practice is always to remove eye and lip makeup seperately from the face. So I might also consider to try out Bioré Eye & Lip remover. =D (The pink packaging & content is SSooohh pretty!)

And lastly, BEAUTYMAP wanted the selected bloggers to take a picture of themselves with the product (or should I say, pic of the product with the user...). I am artistically inclined (BLAH~) so I be taking pictures of myself singing with the bottle!

Come to think of it, I always like to 'sing' with a bottle.... Here's another one of my goofy singing gif from long ago. Heh.
Bunny muffs as like Kim Heechul's! 
Ok, alright, I shall stop my nonsense now. Yes, and I mean NOW. (⌐⌂⌐")

Thank you girls for reading my review!

Till then! Cheers! (●♡●)
