I first spotted the L’Oréal Lucent Magique Cushion Glow Blush at Guardian store almost three months ago, together with a few other L’Oréal new products. The idea of a cushion blush is really intriguing especially now that everything is ‘cushionized’ 😀 . Did I pick it up on the spot? Nope. The price of RM49.90 is the reason why. I have a whole box of new blushes at home and having to spend 50 bucks for a new blush is just not my priority at that time. I am glad I did not pick any up as L’Oréal gave me one at the L’Oréal Paris Makeup Designer new tagline and product launch.
Silkygirl Matte Junkie Lip Cream 02 Glamour: There’s No Need To Rush Out To Get It. No Reason At All
Matte liquid lip is in trend. It is so highly sought after that almost every brand came out with something. And that makes every girl run for their life to the nearest store to get it. Silkygirl, our very own local brand too jump onto the whole matte liquid lip bandwagon with the release of Matte Junkie Lip Cream. When I found out about this from Instagram, it took me a few weeks to remember to check on it. And when I do, I could not find it anywhere! Then the chase begun. Everyone I know was literally hunting for it. I was told that it was sold out everywhere. Why am I not even surprised? Everyone from every corner including their mother and grandmother bought it. Hence the limited stock available. I gave up searching for it until one day I went to One Utama for lunch with my friend Charmaine and we walked pass a secluded Guardian store. I walked in randomly without any high hope that I will find anything. Guardian is my favourite drugstore to visit as they carry Catrice, which is my favourite drugstore brand at the moment. But voila! All the tester seems new and untouched and every single shades are fully stocked up. I love secluded store LOL.
To be frank, I have never heard of AcroYoga before. I have only recently started a little bit of yoga as cross-training in between my runs but I sort of get the idea of what AcroYoga is based on the name. AcroYoga, as the name suggests is a combination of acrobatics and yoga. It sounds simple but once I saw photos on what it exactly is, I cannot breath.
ULTRON, one of the known sportswear brand here in Malaysia held a Facebook contest a few weeks ago for ULTRON YogaTron with Patrick and Ardiana Nolfo who are the latest ULTRON Athlete, who are also the Founders of The Acro Yoga Centre in Montreux, Switzerland. I was lucky enough to be invited personally by Joanne Kay, Founder & CEO of ULTRON to join the session. I nearly could not make it as none of my friends are into yoga whatmore AcroYoga. Just when I was about to turn down the offer, my friend Kelly from Sunshine Kelly said she is interested to go and be my partner!
If you are a regular at Mid Valley Megamall you will notice one very interesting beauty store at LG Floor. I said interesting because Skinsoul is a beauty store and LG floor is mainly occupied by F&B and lifestyle stores. Brilliant as LG floor is also the most crowded floor of all. Most beauty enthusiasts already know and aware who Skinsoul are. Yes it is a beauty brand BUT I learnt that Skinsoul is actually different from most beauty brands. Skinsoul refer their cosmetic products as “aesthetic cosmetics” as it has the same fast and efficacy results as aesthetic treatments. I will get on to that more later 😉
French model Joyce Musy, the Creator of VELD’S who used to model alongside other supermodels for major haute couture names such as Dior, YSL, Hermes, Chanel and many more created a cosmetic line as she came from a background and exposure where she understand that many women will do anything to achieve a youthful beautiful look. Very often the option is either plastic surgery or aesthetic treatments, which can go either very wrong or immensely gorgeous if you are lucky. Some aesthetic treatments results do not last. Hence VELD’S is created together with the collaboration with French plastic surgeons and dermatologists using botanical ingredients from the South African Veld. Besides working with top botanist, plastic surgeons and dermatologists around the world, Joyce also manages private plastic surgery hospitals in Paris alongside highly-reputed surgeons such as Dr Jacques Ohana.
