The Secret Box

Enigma - What is the first feeling you felt when something mysterious happened? For me, I got my adrenaline rush! Fully aroused by the excitement, I will have my full attentions paid to that particular happening. Eagerness creeps in too! Well that is what I felt when I got my Secret Box  other than running into my prince charming.

Secret Box - The mysterious box which I am describing about is actually a box which is filled with product samplings sent by fabulousfinds [http://www.fabulousfinds.com.my]. Monthly, this box will be sent out to me with different contents in it. The sampling products may come in original sizes or in mini sampling packages. And each samplings have its' descriptions; for usage instructions. However, payment must be made, monthly, at only RM35.

Samplings - The products provided are mostly well established brands; shu uemura - benefit - Lunasol - skinz - Wella - Crabtree & Evelyn - My Beauty Diary - narciso rodriguez - essence - Lanvin Paris - SP - Burt's Bees - Elizabeth Arden - Jurlique - Clairol - empro - Olive Tebe - Beaubelle. 

Package - You will not believe how nice and lovely the package is. I was a little bit in shocked when I received my box. The upper box was covered with the delivery receipt while the sides was filled with marker writings. I thought it was a disappointment BUT when I opened the indented box, there is another perfect box in it! Wow! Hence, do not worried on how the delivery would damaged the packages.



My Box - I got my first package 4 days ago, am happy and satisfied. The contents was Elizabeth Arden Gold Ultra Restorative Capsules & Gold Ultra Lift and Strengthening Eye Capsules - Essence Duo Eyeshadow - Essence Stay With Me Long Lasting Lipgloss - Clairol Professional Colour Radiance Shampoo - Clairol Radiance Intensive Mask - Narciso Rodriguez for her EDT.

Dryness to Cure

Iciness - The weather here is hitting the toughest once again. It has been exceedingly colder than usual. The floor, the walls, the pillars, the counters, the doors, everything are icy! Even my nicely done hair turns cold with moist. Every steps taken had been cautiously walked by as I am afraid of slipping and hurt myself. Furthermore I am prone to accidents! Well, I was pushed slightly by the aggressive wind today while walking to work in the morning. It is unbelievable, but true. When will the weather stop being a bitch?

Dryness - What more could be worst than having damp hair at work after nicely done in the room or having the invisible push that causes the leg to go unstable? The answer is CHAPPED LIPS and DRY OUT SKIN!!! Since a month ago, I had been fighting against dryness. The weather here had roughened my skin which leads to itchiness plus terrible cracked lips. Of course there are plenty of cosmetics and facial products used to overcome these issues.

Facial - One of my bestie recommended Laleli Olive Oil which she bought from Penang. It is good, as the matter of fact. It soften and moistened the skin instantly but there is sure need to reapply again and again. Another recommendation goes to Laneige Water Sleeping Pack and YES! it is good! Recommending to those who need a refreshing look in the morning~

Lips - Facial skincare, checked but what about lip care? When the lips surface are dry, it can caused a stinging sensation on both lips. And sometimes being left unhealed will induce tiny bleeding. Hence, it is wonderful to have lip balm, lip gloss, or anything that moistened the surface. I have my miracle Kose Vague Lip Balm & Kose Esprique Aqua Drape Rouge in my bag!

Apparel of the Month.....in Genting!

Atmospheric Condition - The weather had been a bitch for quite some time, since last month. It is freezing cold almost every hour and the foggy wind is scary. Hmmmm... It can be very annoying during the sleeping hours and even more frustrating when I am required to decide what to wear for work. Too little or too think will get me frozen while too thick or too much gets me sweaty. Dang! I hate the cold, wet weather!!!

Apparel - I have friends whom often mentioned how much they like the winter weather in 4 seasoned countries and how much they wanted to experience it; the weather, the snow, the freezing atmosphere, the dressing and so on. But they did not know how troublesome the hassle and fuss could be. Hate, I am admitting towards the freezing weather here BUT this does not stop me from wearing what I enjoyed wearing; lace, linen, semi-transparent silk, sleeveless shirts + dresses, and more to list. Of course, there is a need to put on my double-breasted winter coat which I bought from F.O.S. However, the only concerned I had is to keep my skirt from being hoisted by the aggressive wind!

Mine is slightly different from the above image, purple in colour with the brand of American Eagle Outfitters. {Image courtesy from http://www.porhomme.com/tag/coat/}

Shopping - Since it is a bitch out there, I am required to invest more wearable clothing right? Okay, I am talking silly. LOL. Anyhoo, my source normally came from blogshops as I do not have the conveniences to travel through and fro from Genting to KL. And I thank whoever that lead off the blogshop shopping trend! Else, I will be left severely emotionally effected due to the stay-uphill-no-shopping-life effect. LOL. Below are the few which I bought:
