Prego Branzo at The Westin KL

Here is the reason for you to skip breakfast and lunch during Sundays. Have the brunch of your life at Prego like I did during my birthday week! Boy, I couldn't move when the cheese platter came but I still went on. Talk about pigging out.

I would really recommend this if you're a foodie at heart. There's no where in KL you'll be able to find such a wide selection of brunch, made fresh, served fresh and most of all you can eat as much as you like without ever getting off your chair! Oh, and a glass of champagne to accompany your brunch, fantastic!

Here all all the dishes that I've tried that weekend and my most favorite dish was the Aglio Oglio and for dessert was Prego's Signature Tiramisu. Even if you're not going for the brunch, gather your girlfriends and have a plate of their Tiramisu. Absolutely-To-Die-For.

Minty White Stuff from TruCare!!

This post will go down as a truly special day in my whole entire life...
It is the first time I will be talking about a tub of toothpaste. And that's what I meant when I said "white stuff" in the title obviously... pffft.

TruCare Nano Silver, that's what it's called, and it arrived in my hands about a week ago. You probably have not heard of TruCare until you read this post, and frankly speaking, I didn't know about it until I received it myself. But I was curious about how this toothpaste could be better than any of those I've ever bought off the shelf. Blame the shiny silver packaging!

Honestly, I think it's going to be quite difficult to rate toothpaste, but I have some slight dental problems that I could use as a test subject. My teeth have always had a problem with drinks that are too cold, so personally, I was hoping that this TruCare Nano Silver tub of white stuff (Don't think dirty again) would help. Doug doesn't really care about what toothpaste he uses, he probably wouldn't know the difference between Darlie and Komodo Lion, but for the purpose of this test, I forced him to give TruCare a try. He has weak gums that bleed mildly even with softer toothbrushes and his teeth has even chipped a bit before while eating. Eww.

From a sensation point of view, I will describe TruCare Nano Silver as super minty... in a good way! I'm not sure how it works, but the strong minty effect kind of feels like it is really killing bacteria. Apparently, the Nano Silver content helps with this. Oh and you also get a nice, fresh scent that is refreshing in the morning but kind of relaxing at night.

I haven't had a long enough time to properly see the results, but the early signs are interesting. So far, Doug has had less bleeding gums and I haven't suffered any "cold drink" pain yet. Must test it by eating ice cream one day.

I will post more updates on any significant benefits when I do feel them. For now, the cooling sensation and strong mint taste is enough for me to suggest that you try it yourself!

For more info, do visit TruCare's Facebook Page and TruCare Website.

The Body Shop Sale!

These were at 50% off. Tell me how to resist them?! I wanted to buy the whole shop that night. Oh, The Body Shop sale is on until 7th Nov. You're welcome. :D

PINK GRAPEFRUIT BODY SCRUB | LOVE the scent, texture and how it felt so good on my skin. Mini size so that I can bring it with me while I travel abroad :P

SAKURA PUREE BODY LOTION | I'm quite a sucker for light floral scent. So, this was my favorite of the lot and I love it. Although I won't be using it so soon, I am looking forward to smelling like Sakura flowers. :D

HEAVENLY SHOWER GEL | I've been looking for Lavender scented shower gel or body lotion for such a longgggggggggg time and I finally got it! Body products with lemongrass or lavender scent aren't cheap and that was the main reason I was holding back. RM7 for this bottle, I grabbed two without even pondering if I should do so. Love love love using it. I just love anything that smells like a spa would. :)

CAD Cafe | Haji Lane

CAD Cafe is all about Coffee, Art & Design. A cozy corner in the middle of Haji Lane serves as a rest stop for us during our visit to this renowned artsy place. Here, backpackers and tourists were seen taking in shade from the heat, sipping a cup of cappuccino and having a bite from their home baked sandwiches - which they are quite famous for.

{ADV} K-Palette Zero Tema BB Cream

I think I've finally found the PERFECT, lightest, and smoothest BB Cream/Foundation ever to bring over to Europe!

I've recently gotten my hands on K-Palette Zero Tema BB Cream in Natural Color. Like anything new, I decided to give it a try during the weekend before I headed out and I was simply amazed that it was really smooth and light during application. If you're one of those who are continuously seeking for a foundation that is so light, yet has the right amount of coverage, seek no more. This one is the one. Trust me. I love it!

Anyway, I did a little research on the net of what BB Cream is all about and this was what I found.

"BB Cream stands for blemish balm, blemish base, beblesh balm (apparently because of a trademark in Korea on the word "blemish"), and in Western markets, beauty balm. BB cream is promoted as an all-in-one facial cosmetic product to replace serum, moisturizer, primer, foundation and sunblock. It can be worn alone as a tinted moisturizer, over serum and moisturizer as a regular foundation, and under powder, depending on the desired amount of coverage." - wikipedia.org

I've always had trouble finding the right tone for my skin and amazingly, K-Palette Zero Tema BB Cream in Natural (02) goes extremely well with mine. Perhaps it's the perk of it being made in Japan. Asians understand Asians :D

It comes in this ridiculously sweet pink shade that I adore so much. Starting to love the color pink this month because Clothes For Fun is running Pink October in conjunction with Breast Cancer Awareness month. So, I'm also going to tie this with Breast Cancer Awareness, since it is pink, right. Remember to go for your yearly screening. LOVE YOUR BOOBIES!

It acts as a foundation, moisturizer (this is my no.1 priority in beauty products! no more flaky skin), make up base, beauty essence, sunscreen SPF30 PA++ (also super important in a beauty product) and it gives your face a radiantly glowing effect. Everything in one small tube which you can conveniently place in your handbag or clutch (think tea parties or club nights for touch ups).

Also, always make sure that products applied onto your face is EASILY washable. If it takes loads and loads of make up remover, it only means one thing. The product clogs your pores.

Good thing is, K-Palette Zero Tema BB Cream can be easily removed with any face cleanser. And this means, it DOESN'T CLOG YOUR PORES which is SUPERB!

Everything that was used to produce this cream was carefully thought of. K-Palette Zero Tema BB Cream is also fragrance-free, parabens-free, mineral oil-free and synthetic dye-free which means they only use NATURAL INGREDIENTS so that it works gently on your skin.

I know, most of you would have gone "What is Paraben?". I also did some research on that and here's what I found.

"Parabens are a class of chemicals widely used as preservatives by cosmetic and pharmaceutical industries. Parabens can, however, cause skin irritation and contact dermatitis and rosacea in individuals with paraben allergies. Studies indicate that methylparaben applied on the skin may react with UVB leading to increased skin aging and DNA damage." - wikipedia.org

SO, any product with parabens-free written all over it is GOOD FOR YOU.

What I actually love most about the K-Palette Zero Tema BB Cream is the PEARLY INGREDIENT. Being Asian, we typically have really beige or light skin tone which comes off as dull during bad-skin days and this is where the awesome Pearly ingredient thing comes to good use. It miraculously brightens up your skin! NO MORE BAD-SKIN DAYS!

K-Palette Zero Tema BB Cream in Light & Natural Color are available at selected SASA outlets at RM59.90/each. Try it out now!

To know more about this product, you'll have to visit K-Palette Malaysia on Facebook because I've literally told you everything I know and love about it. :)

Clothes For Fun October 2013 Collection #1

Woke up really early on Wednesday to shoot Clothes For Fun's October 2013 collection #1. Oh, I own the blogshop actually. Not doing it as a side job or anything like that. I got asked a few times by other people LOL. One really funny thing that happened was that I actually got a comment on one of the photos asking me to "Kembalilah kepada Islam" with a crying emoticon attached. Not really sure how I should react to that because I AM CHINESE, YO!

Anyway, I began Clothes For Fun back in 2007 by shooting the clothes with a half bodied mannequin, then it went to me modeling with face but without make up, then it went to me modeling without my face and then it went to mannequin BUT now I've decided to just model it in full length because it looks so much more professional and I actually love doing it.

Anyway, if you didn't already know, below are some of this month's collection #1.

Visit WWW.CLOTHESFORFUN.BLOGSPOT.COM, yeah! :D
