Up until today I still laugh at a statement from a random friend one year ago when I started living healthier by eating clean and adopted running into my everyday lifestyle. In the mind of this friend, I take care of myself because of a guy. NO. I take care of myself for myself, not for anyone. You see, when you start to realize how much bad food you have been stuffing down your body and your health deteriorating, you will wake up one day and put up a determination to turn things around before it is too late. You look good for yourself, not for anyone else. Always remember that 😉 . Just as the saying…girls put on makeup for themselves not for a guy. So please, do not lose weight for someone else but do it FOR YOU. Still don’t agree with me? Come, I smack you and give you a long empowering talk on how to love yourself more 😛
I love it when beauty brand involves more and more into Breast Cancer Awareness month and even repackage some of their products in pink to coincide with the theme. As you know, I am a full supporter of Breast Cancer Awareness month, having to lost a close aunt to this disease. After she was gone, my involvement and support to this awareness has gone up to a whole new level.
Kicking off this year’s Breast Cancer Awareness products and merchandize is ELEMIS. I am stoked that ELEMIS is so fast!

Once again, I am lost in the Korean star news on who is who lol. For you hardcore Korean star fans, rejoice! Because Mamonde Malaysia brand ambassador Park Shin Hye will be visiting Malaysia this October. Whether you know Park Shin Hye or not (like me), let’s get to know her first while we wait for her arrival to Malaysia, aight!
8 Facts About Park Shin Hye
#1 – Park is 26 years old this year. Her birthday falls on 18th February 1990.
#2 – Her first acting debut started in 2003, in a drama called Stairway to Heaven, which earned her the Best Young Actress Award by SBS Drama Awards. Park’s career rose when she starred in the K-drama ‘The Heirs’ alongside Lee Min Ho, where she played Cha Eun-Sang. ‘The Heirs’ was a huge success in China with one billion views on Youku.com (a popular video viewing site in China) while Park had more than 11 million followers Weibo, the highest number followers for a Korean female actress.
#3 – She was awarded the ‘Popular Foreign Actress Award’ at the Chinese Anhui Drama Awards. Park’s popularity continues to soar with her role as Choi In-ha in the drama Pinocchio which earned her Forbes Korea’s Top 40 Most Popular Celebrities. In the drama ‘Doctors’ that is currently airing on SBS, Park plays the female lead which makes her more popular than before. SBS expects to reach a 20 per cent viewership rating nationwide in the coming weeks with this drama gaining popularity.
#4 – Park has won more than 23 drama and TV awards which also include the Prime Minister’s Award at the 6th Korean Popular Culture & Arts Awards and the Most Popular Actress (Film) at the 51st Baeksang Arts Awards in 2015.
#5 – Park has been the face of Mamonde since 2014. She was selected because of her pure beauty and her multiple talents that fit the brand’s image and also the brand message, ‘Inspired by Flowers’. The very same year, Mamonde’s Creamy Tint Color Balm which was used by Park in the drama ‘Pinocchio’, saw a sales surge which earned the phenomena, the ‘Park Shin Hye Lipstick Effect.’ Similarly this year, Mamonde’s new Highlight Lip Tint #6 (Pin Spot) which happens to be Park’s favourite, which she also uses in the drama ‘Doctors’, was seen flying off the shelves.
#6 – Mamonde hopes for the same phnomena for its new Cover Powder Cushion with the release of two new TV commercials in June, starring Park Shin Hye and K-pop boy group BTOB’s Sungjae. In the TV commercial, Sungjae was featured as being mesmerised by Park’s beauty which was complemented by the Cover Powder Cushion. The shades of the Cover Powder Cushion are light and bright just like the petals of the Peach flower which gave Park’s face the soft glow.
#7 – Park recently engaged with 100 lucky fans at a Mamonde fan signing event at Aritaum, Korea. At the session, she wrote and handed out autographed postcards to each of her fans.
#8 – When asked what is her favourite Mamonde products, Park revealed that she love the Highlight Lip Tint #6, Cover Powder Cushion and the Mamonde Flower Essence Masks on her Instagram.
Fans, be on the look out for more information on Park Shin Hye’s visit this October on Mamonde Malaysia’s Facebook page. I will share more when I know more about her visit 🙂
With everything sort of digitalized these days, you will be surprised that there are a majority of us who do not fully utilize the convenience. And I am talking about online shopping. I realized this when I constantly received emails or comments left in my blog that they do not know how to shop online. That got me thinking. Online shopping is as easy as (1) pick the item you want, (2) add into ‘shopping cart’, (3) make payment, (4) wait for the parcel to arrive. Yes it may seems as simple as what I just mentioned for people who have done online shopping before but not to those who have yet to try it.
My current everyday foundation and concealer for the past few months has been nothing but the Bourjois City Radiance Skin Protecting Foundation and Radiance Reveal Concealer. I have been using them so much that I am going to run out soon because the product testing turned from a month to two months and now three months! Oppss! I hope I can sleep better now that this review is up 😀
