June: skincare


The last time i used Origins was like 3 yrs ago, i had used their foundation and lip gloss. Not so impressive, so i didnt purchase any more until today. Heard some of the comment that the spot remover is not bad to use. And i just passed by their counter in log-on. The spot remover is really small in size ,10ml only.


After trying some of their products , mostly are those face cream. But no one is really impressive. Until i had found their mask, i am quite interested in their mask actually. So i had picked this Out of trouble. ( for deep cleaning acne skin ). Don't really know it helps. And the the sales lady come asking me what i am try to find and see if she can help me out of not.
Then i just said i am looking for some moisturizer which need to be light and hydrating. So she had search some to let me try. Until this Matte Scientist , it's lotion like texture and ofcourse for oil controlling. And then i need something for nite, so I picked this Night-A-Mins Moisture lotion for nite but claiming mineral- enriched. So i had finsihed of shopping at Origins.


And this Peace of mind , is gumballs actually, just bought it for one more stamps. I am not really collecting stamps but as the saleslady picked the mint candy and this one for me to choose. Then i chose this.


She asked me what sample i wanna try. Then i just said maybe eye cream. So she had given me this Mega-Mushroom eye serum. And also sample of Drink ups ( hydrating mask) and Clear Improvement (deep cleansing mask).


I quite like their name of each product! Like Have a nice day ( mositurizer with spf), A perfect world ( antioxidant), Make a different ( for repair)




June: shoe




This pair of open toe highteels was bought with no plan. Just seeing they are on sale and walk in to look look only. And the sales asked me to try this saying the color is special and there's no stocks in their other chain store. She insists to take a pair for me to try, then i just try. I felt it looks not bad on me. So bought it with 40% off. :)




Also, bought this creamy cleaner when i was paying. The sales lady said it helps u to clean the dirty on leather goods easily. Dunno, but i don't bother to hv a try.

June: skirt


Sometimes just feel so bored to wear black or white all the time. So i had found this color quite nice as a skirt for work. It's a really OL type skirt i would say. But i just like the color much. It's more a purple color in real but not this blue.


And i am just thinking what color of top to match? most likely will be grey or white. or a light purple top.


June: shoes



Just can't resist to shop when they are on sale. So I had picked these 3 pairs. I had wore the black and white sandel highheels already. The black one is wedge, felt quite comfortable when just try on, but after u had walked a bit, felt not so good. I like the white sandel but it's not easy to wear, cannot walk fast with it on. and the white highheels, in fact it's not that high and the heels is not too thin. I guess will be quite confortable, haven't wore. and the leather seems very soft. Hope it will be comfortable la.




I fact i dont really want to buy that black wedge, but was convinced by the saleslady. I just found most of their shoes is not as confortable as before. Maybe it's because they had expand quite quickly these two years and open so many shops now. Lower price with a cheaper material to use and looser quality control? You can always find their shops in most shopping mall now.

June: pressed powder


My pressed powder seems disappear in my cosmetic bag and i really don't know where it has gone. So i get to buy a new one to use. Again, I buy this pressed powder from Bourgois. My color is the lightest 64 Rose. Haven't tried it on face yet. Dunno if the texture is good or not. But actually i don't really need to use pressed powder, just being lazy to re-apply make up on face when go out. You know it's almost a ladies 's must do actions when they were going to restroom.

June: Cheap Skirts and Dress











Sometimes you can really find some nice items with a cheap cheap price. Surely the quality and cutting is not too good. But they just looks pretty with an very attractive price.

I have one or two piece of clothes which i bought for like 69hkd only. I just like to wear them all the time because they really looks good on me.

And i had bought these 3 cheap dresses and a top from the kwai chung plaza, where is famous for shopping cheap and bargain clothing. This is my first time to shop there, things there is not as pretty as i expected. But finally i had found these. I esp like the yellow one-piece, but again the cutting is not really good.

June: Personal care


I had used up my body powder and lotion, so i get to buy a new one from Marks & Spenser. I cannot live without my body powder. I get to use it everyday after taking bath no matter winter or summer. And M&S body powder is my only choice. I buy this Magnolia scent today. I think i had tried all their scents from rose, china blue...the last one is lavender. And now this Magnolia. Don't remember i had used it before or not. I just know i had used up many bottle M&S body powder.

June: suit


I didnt buy any suit since last summer, because i rarely wear suit in summer. But i really like this white suit has this kind of collar, it looks not too formal as a suit. I just don't like to dress too formal when i need to be in suit. And more important is that i can get 40% off with two items purchase. :)


I am just thinking should i match it with black color high heel or white color? or Even silver? and what color of vest to match with the top?

June: Skincare


I had some breakout on my face since last week, this is really a headach problem to me. Don't really know what's going on. Maybe I was too stressful or i had drunk more coffee ? Or just because i had changed my face wash, and my skin just irritate to it? So i get to change another face wash.


I had choosen this new brand, called Clinelle ,which i had never used before. It claims they are professional care and even suitable for sensitive and acne skin. 100% natural without irritative chemicals. So i get to try this Deep Cleansing Gel.


And also this Eye & Lip Make-up remover, I was a bit hesitated to buy this, because i don't like make -up remover to be gel like. I am more comfortable with liquid if there's something i need to rinse off with cotton pad


Wish these two things work on me.

June: wrap dress


Some of the boutiques start on sale now actually, so i had just gone to walk walk around and take a look. Don't really get something that i really want to shop. But as sale just starts, maybe i can find some nice budget buys. I found this wrap dress from Mango, they are not yet on sale. But I get discount on this item. Maybe this type of dress is not so welcomed by Hong Kong girls. So they need to make it discount item first. But i just like this type of wrap dress more than those dolly-like dress. I find that over 80% of one-piece dresses in the market are this type. Dolly-like i mean. Some of them are just look like for pregnant ladies.


June: parfume


I just walked in Agnis b to have a look only, and i found they have parfume. As a parfume lover, ofcourse try try la. And a salesman came to me to help me to spray it on the testing paper. The smell is not too bad, but not really that impressive. However , the glass bottle looks so pretty. ( esp the heart shape) They have 2 sizes, 50ml and 30ml. The 50ml is the spray bottle, square shape. The smaller one is heart shape!! :) But without the spray. And if i purchase them for any size, i can get the tiny spray bottle for free.

June: Personal care


I am a frequent shopper of Watsons and Mannings, I just think it's so convenient to shop there, and i can always find something i need. And i do really like some of their cosmetic products. Price is much lower and the quality is not bad. I especially like to shop there when they are on sale.


From the pic, you can find the ZA cleansing oil, this is what i always used for removing make up, i had used up for N bottles. It's much better than DHC, i hate the bad smell of DHC, and i just dont understand why DHC cleansing oil is that famous and popular.


And the LipIce kids - strawberry, I am a really big fan of Lipice, and i just love this kids version strawberry. The texture is softer than the adult version.


This is my first time to try Bourjois lipstick, don't know if it will be good or not. But i quite like their products. Their blush is very famous and nice, and I like it so much. Had tried their foundation. Not the best, but good.


As for the masks, i had used the Chamomile anti- allergy masks before, dont really have a significant effect after use, but i like the smell of chamomile. Haven't try the Hydrating & Tightening stretch masks, i get to try it tonite.






June: Parfume




Didnt buy new parfume for long, just becuase I think there's too many bottles of parfume at home, and dont want to waste money. But I suddenly miss the scent of Flower by Kenzo, i had actually used up a few bottles. Recently, I seem dont have a scent for everyday but keep changing. Becasue I too miss the Kenzo flower scent. So i had just bought this, this is a limited edition 2007, the scent is similar to the original flower by kenzo, it has actually add an extra scent of citrus, make it smell a bit fruity. But the original scent which is so special i would say, it recalls some memories in summer time of my childhood. I just love it so much. But till now, i still cannot find a frangance that i am going to use it forever and keep not changing.




June: slipper


I bought this pair of slipper from Mark & Spencer, because the wealther is not that good, likely to have heavy rain. And i was wearing my leather pump today, it cannot be drenched. So i had bought this slipper to wear immediately. It looks summer!

June: Nail color


Had bought this today when I passed by IFC mall today, I was just pass by, a small boutique called Beau Nail, and I found there’re some nail colors displayed, and I was just trying to take a look only. But I found they have all collection of OPI nail color. Including the latest collection India. And I keep searching my Pink, I was wet today by the heavy rain. My skirt, hair and foot were all wet even I was sheltered by my umbrella. So get to buy something to make myself feeling better.


May: Cosmetics


Long long time didn’t bought any make up and skincare. And I just found this interesting product from Manning. BB cream seems to be very popular now, as the magazine already claimed it helps to improve your skin at the same time acting as a foundation. I wonder if that really works, but I do really want to get a try of the BB cream. BB stands for Blemish Balm, so I think it should have the concealer function.
And this BB cream I bought cost at hkd 112.5 only! The standard price is hkd 150, and Manning have 75% off now. So even I don’t used another time after bought, I don’t really waste too much money.

I was so eager to try that actually, so I had applied it on my face this morning without using any base but only moisturizer. The effect is not as good as it claimed on the magazine. But I did find it has a bit coverage. However, not enough at all, unless your skin is so perfect. But I just think if your skin is so perfect , u don’t even need to use any foundation, right? After applied the BB cream on my face, I still used my looser power as usual, cos I found it’s a bit sticky and not enough coverage for me! The texture of the cream is mousse like , it just like those hair mousse. I feel a bit interesting to use this on my face. If I am going to use that every day, guess will used up a month later. I think I still prefer foundation more, or maybe I shall tried other Brand of BB cream next time.

I Had also bought this eyeline gel from Kate. Since I had heard many good comment of using eyeline gel. They said it’s easy to apply on your eyelid no matter it’s a thin or a thick eyeline. I had almost wanted to buy that from Bobbi Brown, their eyeline gel is quite famous. But I found that I need to buy a brush also. If two things together, guess need around hkd 350+ , it’s expensive if I don’t use them everyday! Finally I didn’t bought that! And this Kate eyeline gel is a cheap version, because it costs hkd 95 only with the brush. After try on my right eye, I decide not to use it anymore, because it’s very difficult to handle! Luckily I didn’t buy the Bobbi Brown before. I still prefer to use dark eye shadow to draw my eyeline, it’s quick and easy to apply.

And I also bought a trial pad of Bioderma. I had used that product before, it’s not bad actually. The small size of this trial pad is perfect for my trip.

May: Dress




Some girls really like go to shopping at Zara or H&M, me too! Will just walk in to take a look whenever i pass by. But i never can find something suitable for me. With an affordable price , now i think i will go to Promod in the Festival Walk. It's from France, with many outlets global just like Zara and H&M. The festival walk one is their 1st outlet in HK just lauched in April. I guess they will have more outlet lauched soon in other shopping mall. I like their dress. It's more fun and colorful than those in Zara or H&M, and i think the cutting fits me more. So i had bought this. I think I will visit there sometimes later and try to find other items which may suit me.







And this pic is their model on the dress.


May: skincare


After using up for few bottle of Clinique Mositure Surge ( the peach color cream), I decided to use another brand because it's really boring to use the same one for long time. Clinique just work fine on me , not particular good. So why dont try something new. Last year, i had used Vichy for a short period and then stop, because my face was so sensitive at that time with many acne. But i quite like Vichy, it seems very scientific. And i had found this new product, the pump design of the bottle is nice to use. And the texture is better than i expected. Feel so refresh after applying on face. I guess i will use up this soon, as i apply it whenever after i wash my face.

May: Nail color


Suddenly i dont want to change my nail color all the time, so i decided to choose a color which i would always use. And it has to be a more natural color. So Pink will be the one i go for. One of my favourite Pink nail color is the 007 Revlon ,but they dont produce this color anymore. So I have to search for another similar. OPI seems would be a good choice. But the bad things is that i cannot find OPI everywhere, and they dont have their counter in HK, there're only some nail beauty salon has OPI avaliable. And i dont really like to go to those nail salon to purchase their product. I always think if their product is expired or not.


Finally , i had found this in Joyce beauty, but they only have the classic collection available. And i cannot pick my desired pink, so i had decided to give a try on this. It's a dark pink or rose. Maybe it looks good on my fingertip.


The outcome is that, the color is too solid i would say. To me , OPI and Revlon are quite similar in the texture and the brush is the same too. Too Small! Some people may prefer a smaller brush because they can hv a more detailed painting. But not for me. I think small brush is hard to handle.


And now, i have to keep searching for my Pink. This bottle would be used occasionally. Maybe it's a good color for toe. Let me try try later..
