Loccitane Singapore's Latest Promotion

colorful & fun Loccitane Singapore website

I been stalking Loccitane websites around the globe for a couple of months now, enough to know that Loccitane Malaysia's GWP system and discount/sales is boring compare to neighboring Singapore or Canada (who had a mega online sales with latest products being slashed until you scream like a girl). The latest promotion by Loccitane Singapore is another girl-screamer. Well at least for me... I still can't believe whether it's really that good or they have a typo error on their poster.

Spend $160 & you get this complimentary gift set
Shea Butter fresh face water 100ml
Shea & Organic Cotton Ultra Comforting Serum 3ml
Shea Butter Ultra Rich Body Cream 50ml
and Shea Hand Cream Pouch
(can you believe their gwp? is there a typo?)

I was thinking maybe they added extra 0 to the 10ml making it 100ml? and that 50ml body cream is probably 5ml? all typo? perhaps. NO ITS TRUE THERE IS NOT TYPO! my brother just called me from SINGAPORE confirming this is all real. I was like oooooommmmmggggg... why Malaysia's Loccitane GWP is so [fill in the blanks]. Business must be so good! Well I know Malaysia Loccitane member can get 5% discount but gwp really is sux man, they always give small items, even sachets consider as gift (Isetan member day Loccitane).

click on poster to read
(also don't miss out the fine print)

Anyway this is the GWP poster from Loccitane Singapore. Tell me you can't believe it too. I hope Loccitane Malaysia improves their GWP system soon. My brother who was not a Loccitane member can even diffrentiate which promotion is better. He will be bringing back my Loccitane haul (which Loccitane Malaysia has been out of stock for 2 months! I am already feed up of waiting for it to be re-stock) & gifts tomorrow from Singapore. Can't wait to see to see my haul & the gifts. I am now a Loccitane Singapore VIP member too.

Loccitane's Delicious Almond Christmas Sets

Christmas at MidValley with boyfriend

Last Christmas, I hinted to my bf that it's time to give me a present. He's not a present kinda person and he don't believe in giving as well. He prefers to feed people during special occasions. It's kinda like a family tradition. Then suddenly my bf took me to MidValley (his most hated place) without complaining. I knew I was going to get some present!!!

My bf asked me to pick a stuff toy from here sob sob

We passed by a toy stall and he asked me to pick something out from it. I told him NO NO NO!!! Quickly pull him away from there. I have been hinting him on that Loccitane's Christmas Almond Set promotion for a few days. I told him here, see this Almond set it has 3 products in it that is very good. See the shower gel? it's a 500ml bottle and it's limited edition, not for sale unless u buy this set. Then the milk concentrate? it's their best selling item for body care & it firms too. HUH and this bust gel? well this [the conversation is being censored to protect the public]. My bf asked how much is this? Oh it's very expensive. How much is it he asked again? I showed him the flyer n he freaked out.

Delicious Almond Set is RM490

Yeap u guess it, it's RM490 and my bf was screaming away. SO I calmed him down & say that's why I think the other Delicious Almond set RM280 (scrub & Shaping Lift) which is much cheaper and good (ngek ngek since u want me to lose weight) is the best set you can give me hehehehe!!! OK back to MidValley story, when we finally reach Loccitane shop, my bf pointed out to me that he's giving me rm25 to buy something. My face went blank. Then I was like sob sob alright and look around for something to buy. After trying to figure out what I can buy for rm25, my bf suddenly told the SA to get me the RM490 set and the RM280 set and whatever Almond item that I am missing out on. The SA's jaw almost dropped on the floor. I was grinning away sheepishly whole night.

the Delicious Amond RM280 set

Delightful Shape 200ml

Delicious Paste (Scrub) 200ml

Delicious Almond Christmas Set RM490

Almond Shower Oil 500ml
Almond Milk Concentrate 200ml

Almond Bust Gel 50ml

Free Gift with RM450 purchase Verbana Set

My bf carrying my Christmas presents

I now have the whole range of Loccitane's Amond body products on my dresser, thanks to my darling boyfriend who surprise me and the Loccitane SA. Every time I look and use my Almond bodycare, I think of this funny story and how my bf acted so naturally and still manage to surprise me in his very own way. I love you Baby! muaks.

Clarins Starter Kits

Clarin's Isetan KLCC

SORRY! I wanted to post this up sooner but my modem is still hibernating waiting for streamyx peps to come wake him up. I went to Isetan, KLCC's member day and stop-by Clarins to pick up my Birthday Gift (yes Clarins Member has a birthday gift! whopeee). While I was there, these lil' red boxes attracted me! When I inquire, boy was I in for a shock.

Younger Longer Kit RM78

GOSH I literally fainted when the SA told me how much this cost! It's RM78!!! I love love love Clarins Starter/Trial kits because they have so many goodies for us to try! (without spending a bomb on a big bottle only just to try you know). This RM78 Kit, let's call it the YOUNGER LONGER Kit has:

Younger Longer Balm 12ml (that's worth RM115!)

Clarin's Holy Grail "HydraQuench" serum 15ml

UV Travel 10ml

WHY it's so amazing? let me tell you this. Younger Longer Balm is the ultimate youth fountain cream from Clarins. It's so potent you can't use it everyday and just by using it you don't need any other products for that day! (or so at least that's what the SA told me). For an actual size of 50ml it cost RM480!!! Besides this, the Holy Grail item @ HydraQuench bi-phase serum is 15ml which is HALF! I say HALF the size of the actual which cost over RM200!!! so what we're having here? a kit that is worth your bloody time & money I say. Get THIS while it's STILL HOT!

Shaping Facial Kit RM68

Next kit has a Shaping Facial Lift (travel), HydraQuench Cream mask (travel) and a Renew Plus Body Serum (travel). The only thing I had tried is the shaping facial lift n hydraquench. Both are awesome products alright! The Shaping Facial Lift really works! in a matter of few mins after applying (using the Clarin's touch) you'll see your face being lifted! next time I shall DEMO to u girls OK! Don't get me started on the HydraQuench Mask. It's the thirst-quenching mask that you can apply all over your face including your lips. Your skin will drink the mask up! see believe it (the more dehydrated your face, the more the mask disappears).

HD Body Lift Kit RM58

OK the cheapest kit of all is this one at RM58. It has HD Body Lift, Gentle Foaming Cleanser & Pure & Radiant Mask (all travel size). For those itching to try the HD Body Lift, this set is your baby! ALL the kits come with a Christmas decor & a heart bracelet too! (talk about being worth your money).

I bought the Younger Longer Kit RM78

comes with heart bracelet & xmas deco

*these kits were previously Purchase-With-Purchase items in Christmas. Now it's available without PWP but you're not entitle to any GWP/Vouchers when you buy this.

Lush Review: Ickle Baby Devil

Ickle Baby Devil

I was ecstatic when I received a Lush present from Candy for Christmas. She bought this limited edition Lush bath ballistic "Ickle Baby Devil" from her trip to Japan for me. On first look this item looks really horrible/scary to me especially with the grin and horns on it. It seems to be crumbling so I had to use it asap. The description says it's a children bath bomb and that would be great for sensitive skin too since it's made to be delicate for children to use. The scent is chamomile/lavender-ish and is pink in color.

the sodium bicarbonate makes this devil very fizzy

Under running bath water in my bathtub, I dropped the Ickle Baby Devil in and it fizzes away like a devil being splash with holy water. Very good "distraction" for parents trying to make their kids go to bath! The bath water turns slight pink and there's a slight smell of what's left of the bath bomb. I wish the scent was stronger. I didn't feel that it lives up to its description (soothing sleepy bath). Probably it's really meant for children to have the effect? I need something more aromatic to make me go into a dreamy state. Till my next bath ballistic!

Description:

Ickle Baby Baff And now there are two! They smell the same as our previous wonder bath to get children to sleep, but now one is blue and one is pink. The Ickle Baby Devil Bath is pink; it's for kinds who are devilishly difficult to get to sleep. Sooth their tantrums with a fizzy, mood calming Bath Ballistic. The Ickle Baby Angel Bath is blue; its for kids who deserve a treat for behaving well. Make sure they stay calm all the way to bed with a fizzing, soothing sleepy-time bath. Your kids can choose the colour they prefer; we wouldn't be so assumptive as to assign them to boys or girls. It's bigger too, so it lasts longer and wafts out more mind-calming essential oils to prepare the little 'uns for a good night's sleep. One thing we won't change is its magical powers!

IDI-Italy 1858 Super Fan Campaign

anyone heard of IDI-Italy 1858?
(Italian Dermatology Institute)

I have been keeping a secret. The secret is, I have been chosen to participate in the IDI-Italy 1858 Super Fan Campaign! which started in January 2010 and will go on until March, 2010 (for 3 months). I first heard about IDI-Italy 1895 at their launching in One Utama last year. All I knew was that this is a SLS free product (that bad cancer causing chemical) and that it came from a dermatological hospital specialized in treating skin problems (burns, problem skin, etc). This sounded like the "creme de la mer" that I could afford.

the picture that got me in (though i still look good haha)

So when IDI-Italy 1858 came up with their Super Fan Campaign, I quickly applied to join. They're looking for 3 participants for 3 skin types only (acne, dry & sensitive). I belong to the sensitive type category for now & I wish to treat this before I can use any skincare product sob sob. My first picture, IDI said my face has no problem *lol* and asked me to send another picture! so it was a good time to show my face coz the weathers been BAD! bad bad. This second picture got me an interview. Note the circle areas are my problems which causes - redness, itchiness and burning/tingling sensations.

I am going to use all this for 3 months believe it!

I met Juliana the IDI skin nutritionist at their office in Plaza Vads, TTDI. She was friendly and informative. The interview started with Juliana assessing my skin and my concerns. After, that she introduce the skincare products to me & told me about how IDI came about. Ching a guy, helped Juliana to gather the products that my skin need. I was quite shocked when they showed me 9 items. Surely my face don't need 9 items?! read on!

cleanse correct care & treat

The products that was given to me is for cleansing, correcting, caring & treating my face. I particularly love the treating part coz IDI has a professional series called lab[md/pro] series that target specific skin needs of each individual (and they're also much pricier). Juciy Info, IDI skincare range is divided into 4 series with unique codings:

• 1.0 for oily/acne prone,
• 2.0 for normal/combi,
• 3.0 dry skin , and
• 6.0 for sensitive skin.

the order in which my skincare range should be use

Believe it or not, I had 3 different moisturizers to use to treat/correct my face. Also I'm told that I should not wash my face with pipe water (Msia pipe water is not actually clean!) it might be the reason for my skin sensitivity. I been complaining that my condo water is rusty and has some kind of smell. SO the cleansing milk given to me actually can be use for my face without needing to use water to wash! muahahahaha. ALSO I love love love the toner which is something like SK2's miracle water! muahahaha (will tell more juicy next review).

slurp... luxury treatments

Pro Lab series which cost like nearly RM200 and more. I was given 4 out of 5 of the pro series to use as my daily treating regime. They include the Tri Action Age Defender Cream (my BB cream! ngek ngek), MultiAction Mask (super mask), ClariAction Lightening Cream (for my pigmentation) and lastly UltrAction Protection Cream which I will use when I go about KL doing my work under the BBQ-Sun. I was actually hoping to get the moisture treatment but I was presented with all this (and bcoz the moisture treatment is not in the market yet).

This is the starting of my IDI-Italy 1858 Super Fan Campaign review. I hope you stay tune and enjoy my skincare challenge for the next 3 months! Signing off, Miu.

P.S: My blog links will be up at IDI's FaceBook too as part of the campaign. If you like my post/review please click "Like" on my link (when it's up). The more likes I get, I could win a year's supply of IDI skincare! meow!
