Clarins Info LeSportsac Snidel Tsumori Chisato

Passport Holder / Multicase Everyday Use

Ever since I got to know about passport holder or multicase freebies from japanese magazine, I’m hooked. It is such a useful pouch to bring along in the handbag or for a short trip to the grocery store or even a drink at the mamak stall. To me this is like a easy-to-grab second wallet as I store all the junk i.e. receipts, cards, small notes and even coins in the case.

Passport holder / multicases that I own at the moment.

As requested by Fennie (Clarins Jusco 1U Counter Manager) this post will be a simple example on how to use passport holder in everyday life. Reason on why she requested me to blog about it is because she said most of Clarins Club Beauté member gave a sigh when they received this year’s birthday gift which is the passport holder which is also the same that I received in September (read here) whereas I’m happily using it and showing it to her last week.

In my collection there’s 3 types of multicase. First type is the all-round zip multicase like below. I own 2 of these. One is Tsumori Chisato and another is Snidel. Snidel is much more softer and thinner material than Tsumori Chisato one. Both has a pen slot, passport slot and card slots. However Snidel is without coin compartment.

The second type is wallet-like multicase. This can also be used as a wallet. But I have a good Marc by Marc Jacob wallet now so this shall remain as multicase for me. I only own 1 of this type which is LeSportsac.

Third type is the book-like multicase which doesn’t have any zip. In my collection I have one with a rubber band and the other one is without anything. One is of course from Clarins and the other one is from BMW which is much more smaller.

There is no law written on how to use a passport holder besides holding your passport. You can freely use it any other way that you want. Just ignore the word “passport holder”. I don’t travel much with passport so this is practically useless for me if I hold on to the word “passport holder” right?

In today’s post I’m going to use Clarins passport holder / multicase as an example. This is also a case which I’m currently carrying in my handbag 🙂

Clarins passport holder / multicase comes in a cute print on a white background front and back. The material is thick canvas with some padding and the edges is lined with striking red piping. I called this type of case as “book-like” simply because it opens like a book and it doesn’t have any zip around. No zip? I heard some of you ask. Fret not. Your things will not falls out as it came with a rubber band. Simply pull the band to the back and voilà! I’m a lazy person and normally I want to be able to quickly stuck my hand in my bag and pull out a card from this multicase therefore I chose not to use the rubber band and leave it as it is.

Inside of the passport holder is a striking red and white checkered cloth lining with striking red piping. This is the simplest passport holder I own. The slot where you insert your passport is not netted material like those given out in japanese magazine. It comes in a transparent material. On the right side is card slots. Clarins kept it simple with this too whereas it’s only 3 card slots available and there’s a piece of transparent plastic covering the card slots. At the bottom is another transparent slot which you could put your coins. Alright. This is WHEN you travel. What if you don’t travel with passport much like me? Will this case ended up in the junk box? Well, the answer is no. Read on.

Not many know passport holder / multicase is very useful in our everyday life or even in our handbag. Previously I kept all my credit card receipts in my wallet together with all my credit cards, business cards and so much more making my wallet a huge, fat, heavy like a whale! Now I store unnecessary cards such as membership cards, credit card receipt and business cards in this multicase. I utilize the slot which was meant for passport to store my credit card receipts and the coin slots to store my business cards. The card slots is used to store my membership cards and shopping cards. Sometimes I even put two to three cards in a slot. Isn’t this wonderful? Now my wallet is a happy wallet 🙂

Lastly, an example of a multicase usage which is with a pen slot.

I hope Clarins Club Beauté member can get some idea from this post. If you still sigh for getting such a cute passport holder for 2011 birthday gift, you can give it to me! Ehehehe. Have fun exploring on what you can do with your passport holder / multicase.

Clarins Tea Party

Clarins Isetan KLCC Tea Party

I attended Clarins Isetan KLCC Tea Party upon receiving their invitation card last week. Read here. I went there for just a brief while as I needed to rush to Shah Alam for 2 meetings. Beside special promotion just for this tea party, I saw some Christmas sets selling at the counter. I didn’t buy anything as you know I still have loads of unopened product yet to be used.

Before I leave, Connie (Isetan KLCC Counter Manager) passed me some refreshment and door gift to take away. Delicious Dome food & drink!

Picture time! Yes, the door gift which I love every single thing. I always wanted to try their Wonder Perfect Mascara and Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch and now my wish came true. I’ve tried Instant Light Complexion Perfector before and I like it very much. I didn’t buy it as I’m using my points to redeemed one! Yeyyhhh!

This “leafy” paper bag never failed to make me excited.

Door gift that were given to RSVP guests wrapped nicely in a clear plastic bag.

Vanity Case, Wonder Perfect Mascara, Instant Light Complexion Perfector & Instant Smooth Perfecting Touch. 

My new found love…

The Vanity Case is well-made. Perhaps I should store my Clarins stock here? 🙂

Looking at the crowd at the tea party I would say it’s a successful event! I didn’t bring my camera that day as I really have to rush for magazine deadline and I knew I can’t stay long. Thank you Clarins for inviting me 🙂

Clarins We Care 2011: Clarins Gives The Underprivileged Children Hope For Future



Children are precious gifts and each of them deserve the best in parental care. However, not all children have this privilege. With no exception, these underprivileged children need adequate love and care. They are also the building blocks of a society and we must help them achieve their dreams for a meaningful tomorrow. Clarins always believes that education is the key fundamental element that will guarantee a brighter future for these underprivileged children.

A yearly affair, Clarins We Care aims to promote and provide these impoverished children a better upbringing in which they can attain their full potential to lead a meaningful life in the future. We believe this is through education. Every year, Clarins raise funds though by providing educational tools to the homes which in need.

Clarins is committed to being a responsible corporate citizen and remains loyal to its founding value of its founder, Jacques Courtin- Clarins. From the very beginning, the Clarins Group has based its long term development on respect for Mankind and Nature. Clarins often emphasize on the importance of preserving the environment for our future generation. We believes by educating children on the importance on 3Rs (reuse, reduce, recycle), this will further enable the children to practice an environmental lifestyle starting at a young age.

Environmental education among children is very important. It plays a role in shaping lifelong attitudes, values, and patterns of behaviour toward natural environments. It enables children to develop a sense of respect and caring for the natural environment. Though positive interactions with the natural environment play an important part of healthy child development, and these interactions enhance learning and the quality of life over their lifetime.

“Educating the children is the best investment we can make for the future. By lending a helping hand to these children go a long way to improving the lives and giving them the necessary education to grow and prosper in our society”, said Mr. Tan Seong Teck, General Manager of Clarins Malaysia.




This year, Clarins We Care Charity has selected on the theme “Friends of the earth” whereby Clarins has created a pencil pouch which made from recycling materials and imprinted with adorable animals motifs, aims to encourage children on importance of recycling and saving the environment which includes saving electricity and water, reducing the usage of consumable materials.

The eco message reflecting the 3 pillars imprinted on the pencil case set as a reminder for them on practicing the 3Rs lifestyle on a daily basis. Each animal representing one of the topical pillars:

Tiger:                       Electricity,
Orang utan:               Consumable materials,
Elephant:                   Water.

Everything in the world is interdependent. The endangered animals in Malaysia featured on the pencil pouch set as a reminder for the children on the importance of protecting the environment whereby their small actions indirectly help to save the habitats of these endangered animals. Children can start practicing the 3Rs by learning to save electricity when it’s not in use, reduce the consumption of water by turning off the tap when not in use and reduce the usage of consumable materials for instance, reduce the usage of plastic bags. These are the small actions that should be taken into consideration and in the long run will save the environment.
Let us come together and make a difference in the lives of these underprivileged children by supporting this charitable campaign. The recyclable pencil pouch will be sold at RM 15 and available at all Clarins counters from 1 November to 31 December 2011. Proceeds received from the sale of the pencil case will be used to purchase educational tools such as computer, laptop, reference book, storybook, which will help in building these children to enhance their learning abilities.

Some info About Clarins We Care Project
Incepted 10 years ago, Clarins spearheads efforts to improve lives of less fortunate children through its yearly Clarins We Care Charity. As of today, Clarins has raised more than RM550,000 benefiting thousands of children from various deserving charitable organizations to gain a brighter and more beautiful futures.

What I’m doing to be a part of this meaningful project?
To help out Clarins Malaysia to make this project a success this year, I am going to volunteer to be your personal shopper! Everyone is getting busier day by day and most of us did our shopping online (especially myself!) and you are too busy to run over to shopping complex to make a purchase. A small group of people would either shy or reluctant to approach the counter and enquire about it. As you might not aware, Clarins does not offer online shopping nor shipping. Therefore I will be purchasing in bulk with my own money in advance in normal price and I will courier it to you (postage paid by buyer). Yeap. I do not buy in wholesale price nor do I profit any cent so please don’t ask for discount for the sake of charity! As mentioned above postage will be paid by buyer as I am just helping you to purchase it. 


Disclaimer: Please bear in mind I am doing this to spread awareness and as a favor to those that prefer online shopping. Clarins does not paid me anything and I am not obligate to do charity for anyone else other than We Care 2011 project. It’s not necessary to purchase from me. You can always go to Clarins counter nationwide to make your purchase.

For those who are interested or if you have any enquiry on We Care 2011, please do not hesitate to contact me at feeyona.loh[at]gmail[dot]com.

2nd Clarins Haul for October 2011

In conjunction with Deepavali today, I dropped by Clarins at Jusco One Utama with mummy to purchase a few more items before I redeem my points this Friday at Isetan KLCC. It’s a nervous day for me as I’m bringing my mummy along since she have no idea that I spent a lot on Clarins and clueless that Clarins products are that pricey.

This is what I came home with (besides my RM100 new pillow and Daiso haul). There’s RM10 voucher with every RM100 spent. So I redeemed 4 vouchers as I spent RM465.

The main purchase consists of Multi-Active Night Youth Recovery Cream 50ml RM218, Eye Contour Balm 20ml RM149 and Instant Eye Make-Up Remover 125ml RM98. If you recognized the first 2 items from somewhere, that’s because of this best buy set purchase back in 30th Sep. I thought the night cream and the eye cream is good so I purchased a full size product.

Multi-Active Night Youth Recovery Cream 50ml – RM218
Eye Contour Balm 20ml – RM149
