Japanese Magazine Ray Magazine Review: Magazine Ryza

Ray April 2011 X Ryza 2-Way Pouch/Bag

Picked up Ray April 2011 magazine that comes with a Ryza 2-way satin pouch which also could be a mini bag. Magazine is retailing at RM47.65

Ray April 2011 X Ryza 2-Way satin pouch / mini bag.

Blurp on magazine front cover.

Brand item packaging looks normal but the side is with flower patterns.

The back.

The pouch is securely stored in a clear plastic bag and in a brown box.

The bag is well made. The satin is very soft but sturdy when felt with fingers. The only downside is the bag is very very small. Just like a wristlet size. Even the employee at Kino said that this is small lol.

The gold chain could be detach out whenever you like. Everything is well made except for the gold zipper pull. Metal feels light.

I’m particularly liking the gold chain strap. However I couldn’t stop thinking if this would change colour in anytime soon.

I was shocked to see the pipping in the inner pouch! Look at this. No ending sewing done?? Or they forgot?

Every single angle I look at I saw this bad ending sewing of the pipping. Sigh.

Coming out in May 2011 issue. I really wanted the Jill Stuart multicase from Como March 2011 issue and I’ve waited and waited for weeks only to find out that it’s sold? Too bad Kino wouldn’t restock it. They only brought in 2 copies! Aiyo yoooo. So I placed my reservation for this instead. Not my first choice but what to do. . .

Japanese Magazine Review: Magazine Saita Magazine

Saita January 2011 X Indoor Ballet Slipper & Pouch

This magazine was launched in Japan on 7th December 2010 and I didn’t saw this until today. I thought Kinokuniya Malaysia didn’t bring this in. Spotting this magazine is just at the right time was I was looking for socks and indoor slipper.

Saita January 2011 X Indoor Ballet Slipper & Pouch. Magazine is retailing at RM35.35.

Lovely blurp on magazine front cover. Just to confirmed that the brand item is exactly the same as the picture on the cover.

This packaging is cute and different from others. Nice huh :). It looks like those baby clothes in a box thingy.

Back of the brand item packaging.

Plastic bag is removed and the shoe and pouch is nicely placed inside a box.

Closed-up view on the material and the ribbon bow.

View on the inner of the slipper. The insole is nicely sewn and sturdy looking 🙂

The slipper sole looks like rubber but I think it’s like half rubber?

Opps. I forgot to take picture of the pouch :(. The pouch material is the same with the slipper outer material. The slipper can be bend easily. To store this slipper in the pouch provided, just fold the slipper in half like this.

Gently put the slipper in the pouch.

It doesn’t matter if you fold both side together or 1 by 1 before putting in the pouch. In this case, I folded both together.

Pull the drawstring together and voilà!

I never take picture of the brand item from the magazine so here’s an exceptional case. I thought it looks nice.





Isn’t this cute to the max??

Japanese Magazine Liz Lisa Love Berry Magazine Review: Magazine

Love Berry January 2011 X Liz Lisa Socks & Satin Pouch

Saw this magazine weeks ago and I was tempted to get either this Liz Lisa “moco moco” socks or Gelato Pique one from More magazine January 2011 issue. I couldn’t make up my mind even after going to peep a few times so I gave myself a reason not to get it…which is “I don’t wear socks to sleep” haha. But with our current cold and windy weather nowadays, I decided to get it. Everyday I wake up to a very cold weather. My floor is cold, shower is too cold. Everything is cold. Mum told me to choose from Daiso last Saturday but I don’t want just any socks as I’d want to buy a “moco moco” socks IF I were to buy a pair of socks.

When I arrived Kinokuniya this morning, I still didn’t know which to get. I saw another magazine with a pair of indoor ballet slipper which I’ve been eyeing on since last month from other blog (I’ll blog about that after this post) which I bought too. I’m wearing the slipper as I type this hehehe. Finally after comparing both Liz Lisa and Gelato Pique socks, I decided to get Liz Lisa one.

Love Berry January 2011 X Liz Lisa Moco-Moco Socks & Satin Pouch. Magazine is retailing at RM32.45.

Blurp on magazine cover. Brand item is exactly the same with the one on the cover which is rare.

Brand item packaging.

After you removed the plastic cover, there’s a brown cardboard protecting the socks. The socks is covered by another clear plastic bag.

Liz Lisa moco-moco socks! I choose this also due to the fact that I love pink and blue combination. The colour combi is just nice.

Up-close view of the fluffy moco-moco material and on each outer side of the socks, there’s a bow with Liz Lisa all around.

A satin pouch is also included to store the socks or you can put anything you like in this pouch. In my case I’d be putting the pair of socks in.

To store the socks in the satin pouch, just fold the socks in half.

Gently and slowly put the socks in the pouch.

Like this.

And pull the drawstring to tighten the pouch!

Lemme share with you the pictures of the brand item from the magazine.


Here’s me wearing the super comfy pair of Liz Lisa moco-moco socks!

Who say you can’t get Liz Lisa stuff in Malaysia? =)

Chinese Magazine NewTide Magazine Review: Magazine

NewTide January 2011 with Exclusive Goodie Bag

Dropped by Kinokuniya KLCC today during lunch time for just 30 minutes. Nothing interesting but a highly anticipated NewTide January 2011 issue is available.


Didn’t plan to get this but why not. Magazine is only RM10!

With the purchase of this issue, we are given a gift box. Here’s the content of the gift box. Each gift box content is not the same and are randomly packed.

NewTide January 2011 issue comes with a gift box worth RM150?? Hmm??

It’s their 36th anniversary special issue.


The red box is nice though. I didn’t expect a gift box. I thought I’d be handed a plastic bag.

Spritzer Fiber drink.

Kinohimitsu J’pan Mind Relax drink.

Bioré Cleansing Oil in Cotton Wipes 10pcs. I’ve always wanted to try this!!

Asience Inner Rich Shampoo & Conditioner sample. I got this before and bought the whole set after trying till to date. This brand is good.

Lucidol Designing Pot. I’m not so sure what this is for but there’s a mirror and 2-compartments inside.

Kingston landyard.

Carlo Rino RM20 voucher and Slimming Sanctuary Activ7 gel sculptor worth RM98 redemption voucher.

I’ve read that some people are angry with the gift bag. But when you think of it…it’s just RM10. I don’t think we should expect too much right? There’s a sample display anyway. Why wanna buy if you think the gift bag is not worth it? We should be grateful at what we have, not complaining at what we should have.

Gelato Pique Japanese Magazine Review: Magazine Spring Magazine

Gelato Pique 3-Pc Set from Spring August 2010

2 weeks ago I bump into an online seller selling all sorts of japanese magazine freebies but without the magazine. I browsed thru her page and all the tote bag is kinda expensive. Towards the end of her page there’s all sorts of pouch which I’ve never seen before. Something caught my eye among all. 3-pc set of Gelato Pique brand item from Spring Magazine August 2010 issue! A set cost only RM15 with FOC Registered Post shipping and I bought 2 sets and upgraded my free shipping to Skynet courier. Even with that my overall spent for 2 sets is even cheaper than buying just a magazine at Kinokuniya. I don’t know why. I love to buy everything double recently. Another reason for me to get 2 sets of these is I want the scrunchie to set curls when I sleep haha.

Gelato Pique set from Spring August 2010 issue. This set of 3-pc comes with a pouch, a matching scrunchie and a matching handkerchief.

The pouch.

Matching scrunchie and handkerchief inside the pouch.

Happy family.

Gelato Pique brand logo on the front of the pouch.

Matching scrunchie. So cute, fluffy and soft. With the brand item logo sewn on it makes the scrunchie look different from normal scrunchie.

Brand item logo on the scrunchie close-up.

Matching handkerchief. It’s very small and feels thin though. Not so sure what I’m gonna do with this haha.

Brand item logo sewn at the corner of the handkerchief. You can actually hook this up using the logo tab.

One thing weird is that the overall yellowish beige colour makes the pouch look old and used. I’ve tried smelling everything *lol* for so long and everything smell new though.

Cosmetic Surgery & Beauty Magazine English Magazine iS CLINICAL Review: Magazine

Cosmetic Surgery & Beauty X iS CLINICAL Goodie Bag Worth RM269

I planned to check out Ikea today but canceled it as I was having a migrain. After some ointment on the back of my neck, I felt much better and I remembered I wanted to get a few extra copies of Cosmetic Surgery & Beauty magazine (read here) which I bought yesterday as the magazine comes with iS CLINICAL goodie bag. Today I managed to persuade mum to tag along! I wanted to show her Kinokuniya and all the goodies there hopefully I can poison her *lol*

I headed to the ATM machine first and I saw only 1 copy on the rack. Mum was more anxious and she said “go buy the mag first! later it’s gone” but I didn’t. After I returned, I grabbed the copy, walked pass the cashier counter and I saw a box of the goodie bag. Then I search around and found a stack of the magazine. I grabbed another copy and showed mum around Kino.

I found out that some of the magazine has a sticker on it indicating the free gift. I always knew the goodie bag is expensive but never knew it’s “this” expensive!

2 magazine so 2 goodie bag =)

With Compliments From tag on the paper bag. Small lil thing like this makes a person’s day.

My goodies for the day.

Gosh. I spent too much at Kinokuniya this week. Gotta slow down.
