Sephora Supreme Cleansing Oil + Zalora experience!

i went to The Philippines last week for 10 days and was pretty dissapointed that i couldnt find ANY makeup remover there :( even Watsons dont have them! i even asked the saleslady too. i couldnt be sure if they even understand me (the one i asked couldnt speak english or understand it). was pretty bummed that all the malls i went, couldnt find a proper makeup remover. so i had to settled with Baby Johnson's oil -__- which is pretty unpleasant for removing makeup(so so oily). if any of you are from the Philippines, suggest me where can i find makeup remover! maybe brands like Biore(if you have them), etc.

But its okay now, i ordered a makeup remover online. Here in brunei we dont have Biore makeup remover (which is my go to product), so i usually settled with Skin79's bubble cleanser. But lately, i've been loving oil-based makeup remover because it cleanses your make up veryyyy well! so i've been shopping at Zalora and came accross Sephora Supreme Cleansing Oil and read their reviews online was pretty convinced it will do me well.



it comes in a 190ml bottle and here's an information from the site:

Supreme Cleansing Oil 19ml by Sephora
- Remove every trace of even the most resistant makeup with this soap-free formula. - There’s no need for cotton pads, simply pump into the hands and rub onto dry skin. - Effective yet gentle, this cleansing oil is suitable for sensitive skin and leaves the face soft and perfectly cleansed, without an oily  

Ingredients:Paraffinum Liquidum (Mineral Oil), PEG-6 Sostearate, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Crambe Abyssinica Seed Oil, Gossypium Herbaceum (Cotton) Seed Oil, Fragrance, Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Retinyl Palmitate, Tocopherol, BHT.

lets test how good it is at removing makeups!





application must be on dry hands and face. 



awesome!

as expected, i love this so much. of course, i always wash my face again with my regular facial wash for gurantee removal. i always do this, eventhough all makeups are off. i hope zalora has this instock in the near future so i can buy again. it cleanses out my makeup effectively and i love it for that. i think the key to good looking skin is definitely by using a good makeup remover. for me, a good makeup remover is a must cause i dont dare to sleep with makeup on (BB CREAMS ARE MAKEUP TOO, and i use them pretty much everyday).

you can get this at Zalora for BND17 or RM45. or get 15% off with ZBAP1PP checkout code!


btw, my Zalora experience has been GREAT so far. they have awesome customer service, very fast delivery(no more than a week!) and awesome free returns! i have yet to return anything. i've ordered countless times before. from shoes, clothes, shawls and i even bought my heated eyelash curler there! Zalora are pretty well known here in Brunei. for international readers, go here www.zalora.com

Skin79 CC Cream Review

LONG OVERDUE POST. i just noticed that i havent finished writing about this review. i bought this cream monthsss ago and i think it costs like BND46+ more or less. Skin79 have two version of this CC cream. one is pink and one is yellow. I bought the pink one. the yellow one is for control (assuming its for oily skin?) and this one is for color correction. since i have uneven skintone. i decided to get this. 



this is how it looks like and it is VERY light when you used it alone. if you have fair perfect skin, this alone will be perfect for you. but for me, i need more coverage so im only using this as a primer (the skin79 lady said that its a primer)



i paired it with my bb cream (i think i was using the purple skin79) and honestly it looked cakey on me if i pair it with bb creams(although not in pic). maybe i used too much, its my first time layering makeups lol. overall, i do not love the cc cream. i prefer bb cream. but my sister LOVEEE the cc cream. she's the one who uses it everyday for school -__- i've seen better review online.. but they look like they have perfect skin to begin with, so i wouldnt suggest it for those who have acne scars and whats not. unless if you pair with your bb cream then its fine :) i dont like layering with primer, it feels heavy on me. but i think i'll definitely give this a try again after writing about this xD

KL Trip (very late post)

hello! cant believe i never blog about my malaysia trip here. i will blog briefly since i still remember it and i want to cherish it haha. im too lazy to arrange the photo in order -__-

i went during February i think? my aunt bought me the tickets because she wants to bring Airis. so i had to skip school for 3 days ;) i begged Danial to tag along and he bought tickets too. 

We used AirAsia and it was okaaaay. the food was good too and no hassle at all. We arrived at the new KLIA2 airport and they have free Wi Fi! okay maybe its not that exciting, but it is for me cause our airports dont have one and i dont have a malaysia simcard so free WiFi is good! ;) when we were on our way to get Taxi, we found this stall selling simcard. the name is Tune something, cant remember it. i think its related with AirAsia. and all of us bought it because i think its a good buy because for only RM30, we can use unlimited internet data for 7 days. and when my time is up, there's still a lottttttt of credits left. 

We stayed at the Fahrenheit Apartment. The hotel room was okay but the bathroom is not. it smells so bad. srsly. it wont even go away. and the heater was idk... complicated? none of us know how to use it. its either too cold or too hot. which is really unfortunate cause airis couldnt take ice cold showers :( other than that, the room was fairly spacey and clean. we can see the swimming pool from our room but it looks dirty(it has this black thing on the edge) and i never seen anyone even go there.

we lived at Bukit Bintang area and pretty much all of the malls there are branded-ones. haha. i didnt do any shopping there at all because all of them are LV, CHANEL, MK, etc all designer brands! but it was sooooo fun to window-shop there hahaha. the food court was different than ours.. they are better looking. each food stall has character and it was well organized. they are cheaper too, it tastes just okaay. 

We also went to Kenanga Wholesale.. it was awesome. if only i had more money, i would srsly indulge more. so cheap!! we went to KLCC too! but only managed to go on the ground floor only because we were soooo tired just because we walked thereee and it took like an hourrrr. and the elevator is sooooo annoyingggg. its not a first come first serve basis. we've been trying to get on it for like 30 minutessss but ppl upstairs kept on pushing the buttons and we never got the chance, but even when it opens... it is alwayssss fullllll cause ppl didnt get the chance to get to where they want to cause the elavator neeedddss to improviseeeeee. sighh. we wouldnt take it if the escalator didnt allow strollers. 

overall, it was a fun experience and 3 days isnt enough. wanted to go to Masjid India but lack of time. will surely visit again though. 


this is when we were so tired and waited for taxi but no taxi wanted to stop. we were helpless. haha. and btw.... taxi there drives reallyyy fast and reallyyy close. andddd they horn people just cause they are crossing the zebra cross x__x ok lah, not saying every taxi drives like that. 








because i have an infant with me, i had to share seats haha. no space to even movee. 


we had sushi too. cant remember the name. it was at time square but it was awful sushi ;/



my family went crazy at Marks & Spencer. i think they spent an houurrr or moree there. 


we also ate at pizza hut! the service was awesome. even when we came in, they already approach us with hospitality (not the annoying kinda way!) and omg the menu is soo much cheaper than in brunei! but food was dissapointing T-T couldnt finish any.


on our way to times square. 


on our way to KLCC. btw H&M was awesome, i thought they costs so much but when i went there... it was so cheap! i wanted to buy everythingggggg. i would def go to KL again, maybe next year. andd i will go to MANILA next week! for 10 days! awesome. i just hope everything will be okay.

where in The Philippines should i go? i will only go to Manila and Cabanatuan(sp?).
