blemish balm cream

Okay so I guess this craze bout bb cream started in 2007. It was meant for patiens who just undergo laser treatments n stuff in Korea. But because of the benefits, skincare company started launching their own bb cream. Some tat I remember as e pioneers are Hanskin, Skin79, dr.G...

As usual, I first found out bout this fantastic cream from cozycot forum, a singapore based beauty website. I live in indonesia, but my beauty sources are all from spore ;p at that time I wasn't interested. A year passed by n I did read to find out which are e best bb cream..I still prefer a liquid foundation n a separate sunblock..

until a few days ago my frined asked another friend at BIP bout e bb cream from L'egere tat she tried. Since I got nothing to do at tat moment, I googled bout L'egere, one thing lead to another n at e end I asked my fren who is going to spore to get one for me..

My friend did told me tat I can get it in surabaya but it costs 380 thousands rupiahn, while in spore it cost me sgd39, which is around 120 thousands rupiah cheaper than buyinh in surabaya..I refuse to pay tat much money if I know e real price is not even half e price she's selling..eniwei, my fren is going end of may, so I'll only get e bb cream june..hope tat it's as good as e reviews are :)

SABON body scrub

i got this from gio as a souvenirs when he went to Europe 3years ago..actually he bought it for my mum, but she's not into this kind of stuff so she passed it to me...e jar is made from glass n it is very heavy..when i first opened it, i told him e smell is weird, to manly i said..he said it is their bestseller, juz try..so i followed his order n try e scrub..and boy, i fell in love the moment i use it...e scrub is like a salt with very pleasant aroma...my skin is so soft n smell so nice...i really like it back then n use it once a week...

now it's been three years since i first got it n i still have it in my bathroom..i had been lazy taking care of my body so i never use this scrub anymore until 2 weeks ago...i had sum free time during e easter holiday n since e jar almost empty, i thought better finiz it up so i can throw it..e moment i started to use it again, i fell in love, again!!!! how could i forget about this scrub??? this is e most amazing scrub i've use..it's a luxury, told gio tat this scrub is like Hermes, haha...when i got out of the bathroom, my bathroom smells so nice...even after i use bodylotion, i could still smell e scrub...n after a long day outside e house, when i got home, i could still smell e scrub on my hands, which i have washed like 5times before!!

so i decided, i have to have this scrub...i search n search n i found out tat it is a Hit in NYC...hiksss i want to go to NY!!! i could find it in Netherlands too, of course coz it is originated from there...but when i checked out e price i almost faint, it is around euro27, hiks hiks....so expensive...i juz blew my paycheck on SK2, dun think i could afford this luxury =(  even if i could, who's going to help me get it? it is heavy u know, 500ml in a glass jar...

me wants to go to europe!!!! hehehe.....

Beauty is Pain

i juz bought a blackberry last week n i freaking love it =D bought e Onyx bcoz it has everything i need, good camera n a 3G phone, in case i get to go to japan again, hehe... eniwei i really like the blackberrymessenger n e group features =) Ninta n I used to talked bout making an account at fb for channeling e gossip girls madness, place where we can discuss bout gossip n other girly stuff, ie: skincare, makeup...so we decided to make a group at e BBM for it...but still we dunno wat would we call e group, until i read an article tat being beautiful is expensive..so i turned it a little bit, n here comes Beauty is PAIN...

n it's true...beauty is pain...not only physical pain during facial, peeling, but also pain in our wallets, not to mention if e product doesnt suit us, it'll be a pain in e heart when we saw it lying around unused in our dresser ;P

we have 17members rite now..n there's an active chat everyday...glad if this group could help its members to decide wat to buy or not, share our experiences...juz hope there would be more active members ;)
