KOSE

I have only known one brand for pore pack, Biore...well I do know guardian made them as well but everyone knows that it doesn't work at all, thats why its so cheap...anyway growing up I've always know and used Biore pore pack for removing my blackheads...


I remember during high school, I never bought the whole pack...I don't think I could afford the RM12 on top of all the other essentials...so I always buy it from a senior who sells it for rm1 for 1 strip everytime I needed it...so it works well, I didn't need to cough up 12 buck but I still was able to use it whenever I needed it...you know like where the mamak restaurant who sells loose cigarette...

ok i know its not the best example but thats the only one i can come up with at the moment....anyway i'm digressing again...


I've always like using the pore pack...just because it gives you instant results and its very satisfying just to see all the blackheads on the strip...you feel soo squeaky clean...and I thought Biore pore pack was amazing until....





I found this from Kose...




It works a lot better than the Biore one, and I mean a LOT...

I was browsing through SASA website and I was wanting to buy the Biore pack online (I'm so lazy to go out this days) and I found a review saying that the Kose one was better, so I thought why not give it a try...

When I first received it, the writing was all in Japanese, but everyone knows to apply a pore strip, so who cares?...but I do get annoyed when I can read the instruction (I read every single manual instructions, I know a pain)...


Anyway I tried the Kose one and definitely removes a lot more blackheads than the Biore one... I've manage to restrain myself from posting a pic here...you can thank me now :)

I also have heaps of blackheads on my forehead and I usually used on on my forehead as well...I used with the Kose one and after removing it, you can actually see a fine line where the strip was apply at...



So now I have a clean-clear-of-blackheads PATCH on my forehead...great!

My Skin Care Regime

Kan dah kate, xle tido lg...tertido jup td lepas balik Queensgate (2 hours je ye kawan2)...so skang terkebil2 x tau nk wat...jadi marila dgr saye wat review brg2 Clinique...Oh tadi x beli pape kat Queensgate, penat tunggu optometrists dan eye exam yg sangat lame (die check mate saye 40 minit+kene kutuk cheapskate pakai contact lense monthly, bak kate die nz x perscribe monthly, hanye fortnightly and Acuvue 2 tu dh lapuk, cis! *mumbling, bukannye aku nk beli contact lense pun, nk wat spec jer, sbb kedai ko jual murah jer aku ader kat sini, cepatla check!*) dan lapar dan hujan dan menyesal balik waktu hujan+5.00pm = traffic jam giler teruk dan malas masak = makan lauk leftovers...hmmm cam takde continuity jer ayat tu, ok nampak sgt dh mereps...so here goes..


Earlier (awal tahun lepas kire earlier ker?, haha) someone ask about my skin care...so I'll just do an entry on it...I've been using Clinique for more than 2 years now...been wanting to use it since high school lagi, but manela mampu waktu tu...I don't have a huge range of its product, I only have the essentials...I used the 3 steps (facial wash+toner+lotion) twice a day and I love this 3 steps product...pagi-pagi lepas basuh muke with the liquid facial soap mesti rase cam 'terbangun' (haha if there's such word)...I also like the pump feature because senang nak amik and everytime I squirt the same amount of soap yg keluar (just enough for my face, takdela terlebih ker terkurang)

Next step is exfoliating with its Clarifying Lotion/toner...yang nie I like sebab everytime wipe with cotton wool mesti ader dirt, rase cam 'wah! sumer kekotoran hilang' *exxagerating, i know*...but you do get my point, no?



Next is moisturizing with the Dramatically Different Lotion...yang nie pulak I like because of it does not make your face rase oily and once again the pump feature...


Ok basically those 3 products are the only thing I used in the morning, skin care wise...Usually pi skola I don't use make up that much, just loose powder, mascara and lip gloss...and compact powder for touching up during the day (which is so not often sebab malas)


At night, after wiping off the what's left makeup on my face I'll repeat the 3 steps mentioned above...Then after the 3rd step, I'll use another lotion, total turnaround visible skin renewer...Owh I soo love this product because after several usage I really can feel my skin smoother...



Then I use the Intensive Eye Cream...This cream works wonder!...I remember when we went to Europe, we had like 36 hours of travelling from Wellington to Barcelona and for sure I was not up-to my skin care regime...so sampai Barcelona, eye bag giler horror...after 2 appliances of the cream, terus hilang...hebat sungguh! And I prefer cream than gel because I hate using gel due to it leaving skin feeling sticky...rimas!


Other than that I use its Turnaround 15-Minute Facial for face mask once a week...
I just recently bought its Thermal-active pore minimizer to help reduce the pore hence the blackheads...


So thats basically it...xdela muke giler licin berseri2 but bolela, haha *abaikan, kepala weng x tido* Sekian Titik noktah


p/s: semalam main dota, berjaye bunuh 17 heroes, terase diri semakin mantap haha, kene teruskan berlatih supaya bleh berlawan dgn budak lelaki aka fiance kerana fiance sangat cocky mengatakan ' hmm klu lawan awak, saye bunuh awak jerla, xyah bunuh heroes lain', dan saye balas 'ey jahat' sambil menumbuk manje di lengan nyer (sile muntah if mahu) dan menarik muke masam sambil mengcross tangan, lalu balas fiance 'takkan nk dtg kat awak, ahhh, bunuhla' dengan suara, ala2 soft (sile jgn mengimagine ba'am begitu)...lalu kami ketawa berdekah2 <- conversation yg berlaku tatkala traffic jam teruk td, nampak sgt dh abis topik...

Oh Insomnia!

Yes, I have problem sleeping! I've always had such a problem but its getting worse. For the pass 72hrs, i've only slept 7 hours in total! 2 jam tido and tetibe terjage...everytime without fail...sampai nangis la sakit pale yg xleh tido tu...Fiance makes chamomile tea to help and it works a little...So i have more not-sleeping time, hence the more blogging post...I look like crap but at least eye bag not so visible, thanx to my Clinique Intensive Eye Cream...this cream works wonder!

On a happier note, we're going home end of this year with several *cough* travel plans which I'm not gonna revealed yet...I guess you just have to wait anxiously+excitedly like I am (ceh cam ader jer yg nk anxious and excited, haha)...So I'm glad to have something to look forward to and so excited doing all the planning, YEAY! Saye mmg suke planning. It won't be an extravagant euro trip in 2007 but saye still SUKE!

Ok, if I still am not sleeping tonight, I'll blog more...for now, I need to go to Westfield Queesgate to do a new spectacle...powerku naik lagi!...



p/s: Saye still sedih tak dapat beli Dior Addict 2 (sebab dh abis) kat Kirkaldies and Stains haritu, 100dollar jer with lotion and a cute Dior bag! *hint baby hint* ;)

A 'kinda' very long entry...

*WARNING: A Very Long Entry (hey I've been AWOL for months, what do you expect)*

So its been months since i last blog...well actually I've been missing for months, ie no communication at all with other human beings...haha except certain people la kan (those who GENUINELY care)...I just don't feel like talking or seeing anyone...well not that anyone noticepun *self-pitying*...haha nolah of course some notice...

konon trying to disconnect with everyone including bestie...and it turn out to be a big mistake...straight away i receive a screaming phone call (oh yes, she screamed and very LOUDLY i must add) and another 20 minutes of nagging from bestie because i didnt reply her frenster msg and phone txt (but she claims heaps of email, msgs and txts)...Sayang, thank you for screaming and yelling k, it does feel like you were there beside me like the old good times eventhough you are miles away in Padang...and D i know u care as well but you are really2 busy with the new job + *wink* and knows that Naza will report back to you about everything...haha...and yes i can't go back for you *wink* and i'm still kicking my self for that...demmit!


So what have I been doing this past months......i did think of going home (cause dad always pay everything kan, ahaks) but somehow didn't feel like it...i felt like just lazying around at home and not go anywhere but come to think about it I think it has been a quite productive 'lazying around'...

Let see,

• Shopping is a mustla kan but i didn't do much i think...just one sass and bide jean and a scarf from kirkaldie and stein, clinique 3 steps, Esprit work belt and coin purse.... for 3 months that is a little of shopping plus with all the sales going on...proud of myself..*self-pat on the back* ;)

• Spring cleaning of the house and did some re arranging of the furniture...bought a drawer/dressing table (finally!) and did some home craft a little bit...well more of storage boxes...i did some gardening as well (sampai melecet2 jari i)...haha...

• Polishing my baking skills...owh fiancela yg paling happy with this...everyday ader new dessert: chocolate cake, cheesecake, cream puff, banana cake, cookies, apricot danish, tuna puff etc...(owh saye tak kuase nak tangkap pic for every dish)
  

• Reading novels again (its been ages since i last read a novel)...so i was reading the whole shopaholic series again (just in time before the movie premier) and also all the other Sophie kinsella's book...and currently thinking of buying the twilight set...

• Renting dvd every week from Video ezy terchenta plus re-watching SATC, gilmore girls and the O.C for the who-knows-how-many-times-already...Finally was able to download the whole 4 seasons of The Hills (telah mengupgrade ke 40gb, so super downloading all cerite under the sun)...haha

• Addicted to Dota..haha blame the fiance! But I'm getting really good, I mean really good...Killing up to 12 heroes without mati...*Perasan hebat sedangkan satu hero jer reti gune*

Ok I think thats pretty much it...ceh ingat cam banyak nk tulis, poyo jer...Anyway I'm too lazy to upload pictures...So till then, toodles!

Oncall weekend

So i was supposed to be oncall for both Saturday and Sunday but yesterday the SHO have signed me off, so i couldn't be bothered to turn up today (hope i don't get into trouble for that). Yesterday, fiance send me to Hutt hospital (which is about 20 minutes drive) at 8.30pm, sian I yg oncall but he has to wake up early as well). Not that i didn't want to drive myself, its just that he wan t to use the car yesterday to buy groceries (yes he does groceries when i'm too bz) and since final is just around the corner, he didnt want anything bad happen to his precious...hahaha...anyway by noon I was done with ward round and the SHO let us go and fiance who baru jer tido balik had to come and pick me up....we did groceries a bit, takeway fried chicken and chips and went home..

Today since i malas to go out to Hutt, bangun quite early, mandi and waiting patiently for fiance to wake up...it was so damn difficult to resist from txting him or walk to his place to wake him up....hahah saye mmg kejam, suke kejut die...its just that i was so hungry...hehehe...anyway he finally woke up around 11.30 and we went out for brunch at Cinta...singgah The Body Shop and bought body scrub, eye gel and home fragance oil...


Now I have to start studying...maybe after I mandi again with my new Mango Scrubs...hahahha
