Samsung NX MINI Camera launch event

Hello! 

If you are following my instagram , facebook and twitter , you would probably know that I have attended a launching event held by Samsung and Manoah on last Saturday with few other amazing bloggers. I've been spamming plenty of photos taken using Samsung NX mini just to show you how amazing and pretty the photos are. 

Saturday Morning, 26 April 2014- Once registered, we were given a bag of goody contains a piece of shirt and a box of Samsung NX Mini. I jumped happily and was too excited to play with the camera. You need to know the fact that I just can't meet with camera because it is my bestfriend.

Samsung NX Mini is the most compact, lightest and slimmest interchangeable-camera in the market. It's weight is only 158g with 3.0 inch FLIP-UP display (which is very important for us especially to selfie queens) and has varies of modes to be used depending on the desire photography. Now we can take pretty photos wherever we are and at anytime as long we keep this small camera in handbag. 

Samsung Malaysia brings in 5 gorgeous and great choice of colors which is Black, White, Mint Green , Pink and also Brown (brown is in its way coming to Malaysia, coming soon!). I was in awe with mint green and pink. <3 Heart them two!

I just can't stop from taking selfie, lotsa selfies! like continuously taking like a boss, no body business! It's me, queen of selfie! <3 Okay, lets back to the original event story. 

Our task of the day is to take a lot photos in Kuala Lumpur city and to win the contest, the pictures must have message and values, in term of Malaysia cultural and historical photography.

Benefit POREfessional Review

Many of you were asking me , how to get a flawless skin? What kind of method , foundation brand or product that I used to get a smooth and flawless skin? How to cover the pores especially at the nose area? How to smooth out the skin without using heavy thick foundation?

Well, I am not saying that I am a professional doctor or makeup artist anyhow I am a consumer. I have trying out a lot of products in the market and this is one of the best products I've tried. So, there's no wrong to share the secret with you. Bear in your mind that this is not a sponsored post, therefore I would have my own words and opinions into the product mentioned.
I know there's a lot of techniques including Photoshop, 360 phone application and specialist skin care products that could help to shrink and minimize the pores, however, in this post I would introduce you one of the techniques and products that would help you to cover the appearance of the big pores. The answer is... 

POREfessional from BENEFIT. 

Where to get this product?
Frequent question: Why I never heard of it before? Well, this is one of high end makeup brands that is only available at SEPHORA, BENEFIT counters (pink theme counters at selected malls) and some are in PARKSON. You may find the store list here.

My Advise: 
Better go to the counter and try it yourself! Wear it in a day and experience the difference!

Benefit Porefessional claims;

“Quickly minimize the appearance of pores & fine lines for smoother-than-smooth skin! Apply this silky, lightweight balm alone, under or over makeup. Translucent, oil-free formula complements all skintones and helps makeup stay put. Contains a Vitamin E derivative, known to protect skin from free radicals.”

The function of POREfessional

This product can be used as a face primer , underneath foundation to hold and make your makeup last longer and stay all day long or to smooth-en out the appearance of pores and lines. Another bright side of it is, it makes the foundation blends easier and silkier. To be honest this product is great for oily and combination skin. This is because most of oily and combination skin face typed would have bigger pores appearance problem compared to dry skin. Moreover, I realized that it helps to matt-ify and smooth out the skin .  So, my advise is to get a well pampered moisturized skin before using this product to avoid flake-y skin.

Application

There's two way-application to use this product as pre-makeup (before) and touch up (after).

1)  Pre-makeup , Pat and blend it gently using your fingers before applying foundation, and it would acts as a primer. You may use it on all over your face or only focusing on T-zone area.

2) Touch up,  After you have done with the makeup, you may apply this primer on top of foundation and pat it on the area that you want to cover it up. It's kinda like "photoshop" method in real life. You may use this primer as  "touch up" at the middle of the day as it would helps you to matt-ify the skin. 

The texture 

It is a translucent balm product with a tinted brown color to it. It has silicone texture to it and makes the application glides smoothly and easier. There's no color for the balm and suits with all complexion.

Packaging

It comes in a tube with a small nozzle which is a good thing about it, no waste and over-squeezed product.
You would get the right amount needed for one time makeup application.

Yay or Nay?
All depends on your budget.

Have you tried it? What do you think?

My Fragrance collection- updated 2014

Hello ladies!

How are you doing?

Today I'm gonna reveal my latest perfume collection also known as my fragrance collection in the year of 2014. Along the year of 2013 to 2014, I've been collecting more and more and more and more perfumes and body mists til there's no space for me to add more fragrance into my collection unless If I find better organisation idea. Anyhow, I know the number of my fragrance collection is kind of ridiculous, but please, I'm not trying to brag about it but just wanna share my latest perfume collection as I know some of the people love to read this kind of post like I do :P 

If you've missed my last year's post , I would link it here .

Overview on my perfume collection. My preference for the perfume display base is the Ikea white metal tray plate (RM 19.90) .  I have seen a lot of perfume storage idea on youtube and most of them are displaying the perfumes on the table and put pretty tray or decorated DIY frame underneath the perfumes.

As you can see, there's no specific arrangement for my perfume collection and I just jumbo up them together! If I use the perfume more often , it would be at the front. I think you already get the rough idea which perfumes are my favorites :) 

  Viva La Juicy La Fleur ,  le originale and Taylor Swift Wonderstruck. 

If you are interested to buy the Guerlain perfume, you can visit this page for more information. 

My body mists and some of the matches perfume body lotions. In this post I would not include the body lotions as it would makes the post super long, therefore I might do another separate blog post about it  if only requested.

1) Anna Sui Fairy Dance Secret Wish

TOP: Tangerine, Mango, Pink Pepper
HEART: Fresh Rose, Peony, Bamboo
BASE: Sandalwood, Vetiver, Vanilla

I got this perfume from an event and it is absolutely my  personality "scent" which is sweet plus citrus. I don't know how exactly to express and describe the scent, but I would rate it as 6 /10 for my perfume preference. 

2) Anna Sui Forbidden Affair

Got it from a holiday  and till today, I feel disappointed for the rubbed off image on the bottle. 

"The design was inspired by traditional fairytales like Cinderella, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty. The rococo feeling comes directly from the style of the 18th century decorative arts." 

TOP: Lemon, red Current, Blackcurrant
HEART: Raspberry, Rose Petal Accord, Pomegranate
BASE: Violet, Musky Notes, Cedarwood

3. Britney Spears Fantasy Twist perfume ,  both perfumes have pleasant smell but I prefer the purple color perfume better than pink.  

4. Taylor Swift Wonderstruck, got it from a sale and of course this is one of my favorite "travelling" perfume because it is small and light. Don't ask me about the scent because I adore Taylor Swift and whatever hers is mine. 

5. Silkygirl Charming Charley perfume.

I liked this perfume because of the packaging , like seriously I found it looks so cute and adorable on my vanity. So, please don't be bias. I know it is not a high end perfume, but still I adore it til today. read more 

Heart it <3

6. Juicy Couture , Viva La Juicy La Fleur (EDT) . Thank God that I'm spelling it on this post instead of pronouncing it as I never ever passed the pronunciation for this brand. Haha. This is my signature and ultimate favorite perfume. <3

7. Juicy Coutue Viva La Juicy (le originale EDP), Okay, the smell is almost similar to the la Fleur( E.D.T) but I feel it has stronger scent than La Fleur maybe because  La Fleur is EDT and the original one is EDP. 

8.Coco Madamoiselle EDT, the one I bought back in Paris trip and the reason why I buy it because I don't afford to buy the handbag :P haha. At least I got the perfume all the way from Paris. Ahaks! 

9) Hugo Boss Femme. 

It delivers elegant and feminine scent to the user. A gift from my friend back in Diploma course. 

10) DKNY Cherry Blossom

My first perfume with sentimental values. I can't explain more because I don't know what to say. 

Part of my vials collection. Nothing much to describe. 

Now lets talk about my body mist collection.

I know I have huge number and ridiculous amount of body mists, but tell me, how could I  resist all this sweet temptations especially when they're in good deal and have bunch of attractive scents.  I just couldn't help myself! So I ended up having all these into my collection! Seriously, I'm wearing them all fairly everyday depending on my mood of the day.  :) 

Can you trust me?

Just believe me :) :P 

Now I just realised that I have tooooo many body mists!  the total is : I have 8 + 2 (2 are not in the picture: one is in my handbag , small size bottle of Victoria Secret in Vanilla scent and another one is on my bed side table, bath and bodywork in pink chiffon) . 

Okay, lets get started! 

1) Victoria Secret PINK collection  in wild & breeze scent which is absolutely has a fresh scent with a hint of citrus. For some reason I feel this scent gives special connection and freshen up my mind , boost up my mood and 

2) Secret Craving is my first body mist from Victoria Secret and I am still  using it till today.

3) Victoria Secret in Desire  I got it from US and it is still my favorite. 

4) Victoria Secret True Escape. well, as it states on the bottle,it has jasmine scent but believe I smell nothing similar to jasmine. Don't ask me why because I don't have the answer. Have you sniff this body mist? What do you think? Do you face the same problem ? 

Following are the 2 Victoria Secret body mists that I rarely reach at the moment. There are Love Spell (which is one of the best seller scents) and Passion Struck , I just don't have the right time to use this scent.

Bath and Body works body mist in sweet pea. I have another one in small size , "chiffon pink" scent given by my friend, FarahLiyana, thanks babe! 

*Sorry the body mist isn't in the picture because I put it somewhere on my bed side table. 

Last but not least is my Eau Des Alpes body mist all the way from Milan given by my friend, Layla. Thank you soooo much! I love how it looks like with sleek slim bottle and the scent is one of my unique perfume scents, I still don't owned any similar to this.

So, thank you for reading. sorry for my "informal language".

I would try to update more often and what I need from you is your "support".

Thank you and do follow me on twitter, instagram, facebook , youtube and goggle+ if you haven't already.

Stay Tuned!

"bed sheet, the comforter's sheet, makeup organizer, table organizer and curtains for my room decor". I don't know whether this is normal to all girls but my best friend, Ayu did asked me once , "Wiida, kau memang suka collect bed sheet ke?" (translate: Wiida, are you really love to collect bed sheet?) 

and ya, this is the right time for US, shopaholic, or weirdo (which has same syndrome with me) to buy new comforter , new cover quilt and bed sheet! heeeeee.  

See you at the sale venue!! Muahx!
