[Giveaway] Timeless Truth Swallow's Nest Flawless Whitening Mask

Have you ever imagined you will be putting bird's saliva on your face? Nope, me neither lol The things girls do for beauty..

Actually the reason I bought this mask is because apparently these girls cleared all the stock at the booth in Taylor's wtf So I requested Suanne of TT Mask to bring more and reserve for me. In case those crazy girls come again.. =x But this mask in particular was sponsored by TT Mask & The Butterfly Project, along with the Instantaneous Brightening Cooling Mask. Thanks!

Haha! Check out that cute symbol at the bottom.

This is a lifting mask with hooks. Basically you just place the mask on your face, attach side hooks to ears then the bottom ones go on your ears too. It should feel slightly tight to pull your face upwards but if it's too tight, TT Mask's sheet is soft enough to stretch. Just give it a gentle tug.

Here's how it should look like! Notice the holes for eyes, nose and mouth are placed perfectly.

Overall, my face looks less tired and slightly brightened. The lines on my face also seem to soften (probably from the hydration). I've been feeling my skin sag for the past few weeks and this mask works great to counter the effects of gravity! I don't feel the weight on my cheeks that badly after.

The Orchid Extract Replenishing Mask is another lifting mask that you can try.

Samsung - Always Giving Us Great Surprises

Was lepak-ing inside the Samsung outlet at Low Yat Plaza (checking out the Red Note II!) when suddenly I heard this loud music coming towards us.

A band appeared right outside the outlet!

And that guy right there is kinda cute.. =x

Woot! The whole place had a carnival feel and the crowd went craaazy.

These are the smiley smiley clowns, not the scary ones..

Had to grab a photo cos I love the costume!

For those of you who didn't get to see it, you can see my sucky video below =/

And the Galaxy S4 is launched!

Went back inside to check out the Galaxy S4 and it is such a beauty.. I just find it to be so aesthetically pleasing - fair, smooth skin, slim body and curves at the right places *melts* Although it has curves, it's still more squarish than the S3 and appeals more to me.

5 inch Full HD Super AMOLED display and octa-core processor (switches between 1.2 Quad-Core for normal usage and 1.6 Quad-Core for heavy usage). The Galaxy S4 is available in White Frost & Black Mist.

It even has a sexy back~ 13 MP camera!

My fav function? The Dual Camera! It uses both front and rear cameras together so you get to be in shots as well. Never be the photographer who gets left out of photos again! Also curious to see how 2 people camwhoring will turn out LOL

Secondly, there's this Sound & Shot function that snaps a picture then records an audio to be attached to it. Now you can really say that a picture says a thousand words xD Well.. Only if you can say 1000 words in 9 seconds.

The 3rd function I found to be super interesting is the Smart Pause. It detects the user and stops the video when you are not looking at the screen. When you turn back, it continues playing. Le bf is here to demonstrate for you xD

Then there are also other things like Air Gesture (OMG control your phone without even touching it), WatchON (infrared remote for TV etc), Adapt Display (to customise the display colour balance/brightness for each application) and more.

Thought the fun was over but as I headed out, I encountered a flashmob dancing to Psy's Gentleman!

I heard all the Galaxy S4s at Low Yat Plaza have already sold out! You can grab one for as low as RM 1,199 with a certain telco company (Whhaaattt??!!)

Check out more details about the Galaxy S4 HERE.

Do You Dare to Go RED?

Tell me, do you dare to wear red?

Red is Sexy..

Red is Daring..

Red is Stylish..

Red is Samsung Galaxy Note 2

It's the same phone with the same awesomeness but packed in a brand new seductive colour, Ruby Wine.

A close up - just look at that..

Matching S-Pen.

It oozes a sense of sexiness and dark mystery.

Compared to many black & white phones nowadays, the Ruby Wine colour is unique and will suit people who want to stand out. I imagine this will go great against a tight black dress to the latest hangout places. A sexy phone for a sexy owner.

If you love being different, the Samsung Galaxy Note II in Ruby Wine is your partner.

Timeless Truth Instantaneous Brightening Cooling Mask

On weekdays, I literally walk 10 minutes from college to my car and once I enter, it's like an oven. My skin immediately feels like it's shriveling up and becoming so dry.. Like Rango here.

Hace mucho calor! That's saying it's very hot in Spanish..

Jeng jeng! TT Mask to the rescueee~ Not only does it cool down your hot skin but also brightens it to reverse the effects of the sun! Pop it into the fridge before using to enhance the cooling effect.

It even has snowflakes on it kay..

Good fit as always =) It smells and feels like Mentos on my face. So cooling and minty!

It's a really thin pulp sheet which I love. Pulp sheets always adhere much better and feel so comfy.

The protective plastic sheet is full of holes to enhance absorption of serum in the sachet! This way, you won't be disappointed with a dry mask.

After 20 minutes, remove and pat remaining essence into face until absorbed. After that, your skin should not feel sticky or wet. In fact, it's smoother and moisturized.

Honestly, brightening effect is not as good compared to the Functionality Masks but the cooling effect is nice!

Waiting 4 It..

It was a quiet sunny afternoon at Jaya One..

Suddenly je these bunch of people popped out with their violins and cello and started playing music in front of me. OMG is this le bf proposing? Is it really happening?!?!

But then he's somewhere in the middle of the sea fishing so nope.. lolz But we still have acapella singers to serenade us.

Then they went all Glee style and more people started crowding around, taking out their cameras and phones to snap snap snap.

Galaxy S4!

Yes, this mini concert was organised by Samsung for their new Samsung Galaxy S4 which is coming really really soon! They even composed a song specially for the S4 and it had quite a catchy tune!

~~Santa Claus~~ Galaxy S4 is coming to town..!

Can't wait for the launch of the Galaxy S4!

Meanwhile, you can check out the features HERE.

Kate Eye Shadow BR-3

When I got this in my Vanity Trove, I was super excited cos it looks so pretty! I can never have enough brown eyeshadows xD

If you can read Japanese..

Love the design on the 'window'! I realize all of the Kate cosmetics have this expensive look and I love it.

Comes with 2 colours - light and deep, which are meant to overlap and be blended on your lids (as shown on the back of the packaging earlier). You can also blend both colours together in the pan for a 3rd shade!

Can you believe this swatch is without a primer???! The eyeshadow is SO pigmented and applies silky smooth. I'm really impressed.

Apply light colour all over lid and deep either near your lash line or on the outer half. Brown is really easy to use and it shapes your eyes effortlessly. Pair with brown eyeliner for a natural look!

Love how it's not just a dull matte brown but a shimmery one! I can see myself using this often, especially on days when I'm in a rush. I've also tested it out and the colour stays all day long..
