Part 1: Products review

Its been long since the last time i blogged about something. but well, i am blogging now with a freaking huge news!! I will be getting married... yes u read it right. 我要嫁人了!!!!!

anyway.. that's not my main point in this post. I felt like writing this is because i realize after my 24th birthday i am actually turning into another phase into my life already. I am planning for my own wedding. Actually saving money so i could contribute some into my wedding deco and also some of the petty little things like some house deco. Am also starting to take better care of myself.

U know what's my pre-bed routine now? I would get home and take a hot shower and sit down here in front of my laptop cum dressing cum study table and start my routine. so i thought i would write it down here and read back maybe in 5 years time (if i still remember my password la... ) whether all these that i had been doing works or not.

And also, i include some of my personal experience on certain products.

First and foremost when i sat down, i would start applying this.
Yes. The Original Nail Envy Nail Strengthener from OPI. This isn't cheap u know. It cost me RM 110 per bottle. Well, as some of u know, i teach piano and play the piano often. I also love to chew my nails... yea i know its dirty and full of germs and all. All of this above made my nails dry, brittle and soft. Since i wanted a pretty manicure with some pretty bridal nail art on it, my manicurist suggested that i use Nail Envy from now on so that it would strengthen my nails for the best result. I considered nail extensions initially but she said it would be too troublesome for me. So yea, I have been applying it every night on my finger and toe nails religiously for 3 weeks now. But the effect are still not that obvious. But one thing i do realise is that, the sides doesn't chip off layer by layer like last time.

2nd product after nail envy is this:


The Body Shop Spa Wisdom Honey & Beeswax Hand and Foot Butter. RM 69. I have damn dry feet and i just don't understand why. Its been years and its getting worst. Its like my feet are 50 years old!!! Damn it! I realize i need to beautify it to do justice to my beautiful wedding shoes la...
So i seek advice and someone asked me to apply some really good moisturizing lotion and baby oil and wear socks to sleep. So i thought, baby oil should go with baby lotion isn't it? So i went out to buy Johnson's baby lotion and use up almost half a bottle and guess what.. NO EFFECT leh... damn pissed off.

So went to The Body Shop to check the products out and the SA recommended this. After much consideration, Sean said, "Buy la buy la... u go drink starbucks one week also more than this price already... " So off i pay and went home happily.

The scent is like.. well, the famous body shop sweet scent la. i don't know how to describe it. Read from a blog that it smelled "warm, sweet and buttery"... SWEAT!
The texture.. its really like butter. Not watery, not creamy.. just buttery.
The results is... SUPERB! After one week, i can actually feel and see the difference! It softens my skin and also it doesn't give me the dry and crackey feeling on my feet anymore!

to be continued if i remember...
