    Gucci Guilty: Unleashing The Hidden Guilt

    9.27.2012


    The Fragrance: Gucci Guilty 50ml EDT

    I've been hiding this guilty *gulp* feeling for a long time and now I'm out to confess that I have a bottle of Gucci Guilty but I still love Gucci Envy! but but... somehow Gucci Guilty looks so seductive and dangerous that I'm attracted to it's power.  Maybe it's the gold, even if it's not real gold nobody knows right?

    going for a wedding dinner smelling & looking
    like a thousand bucks

    Many reviews says it's a soft scent of oriental floral that don't last. Somehow my review would be totally different *guilty again*.  I feel that it's strong even with 1 spray on my clothes and it lasts over 6 hours. I only wear this during red carpet events which is something I seldom would do because I'm *guilty* not your average glam chic but more of a hippy chic who loves comfort. Maybe it's just my size? If I have a body like Angelina Jolie, to hell with glam clothes, I'll go naked on the catwalk (don't sue me please). Call me daring when I put this on, it'll be not the usual me but the me who wants to be glamorous, daring and sexy. }

    The Scent?
    • oriental floral
    • top notes of pink pepper
    • heart note of lilac
    • base notes of patchouli and amber


    gold liquid, gold body


    ready to party and be guilty *not*

    Sleek gold packaging with the words Gucci Guilty just screams I'm glamorous (expensively) naughty. Just watch this video and you'll know in a nutshell the message in this bottle of gold liquid, reflection your inner naughtiness.

    Gucci Guilty EDT RM217/30ml, RM272/50ml, RM355/75ml.

    Have You Met Yadah? by Jynn Looi

    9.25.2012

    introducing Jynn Looi

    Thanks to plusizekitten, I was once again privileged to attend the Yadah event by Stage Cosmetics held in Itallianies, Paradigm Mall as a guest blogger for one of the top beauty blogger plusizekitten.

    Question is, who is Yadah?
    Yadah is a well-known comic strip character in Korea and has an entire cast. But for this launch, Stage Asia brought in Yadah and her alien pet into our market to offer that unique brand proposition that may relate to a young audience. I’m talking about youngsters, teens, young adults yadah yadah.. Mothers/parents should admit the worries of using certain products that doesn’t contain too much chemicals for their baby girl’s skin.
    Not to worry, Yadah is a range of botanical skincare products for teens and young adults formulated with natural plant extracts like essential oils, floral water, barks and traditional herbs etc. that works in perfect harmony with the skin. The gentle yet effective formulas are 100% free from artificial colouring, preservatives, mineral oil, and sulphate and do not contain animal extracts of any kind. They are most suitable for young skin as this particular age range have more tender skin that is more vulnerable to harsh chemicals.
    The unique key ingredient found in all Yadah products is the native Opuntia Ficus extract, a unique cactus species organically grown and cultivated in Korea.

    Opuntia Ficus is known for its strong anti-inflammatory and high potent antioxidant properties which help neutralise free radicals harmful to the skin. Cactus is one of the few rare plants that can survive extreme weather conditions from the scorching hot barren sands to the freezing harsh winters in the deserts because of its unique ability to reduce water loss and it is for this very reason that it is able to prevent water evaporation from the epidermis and acts as a natural moisturiser to keep skin soft and hydrated both indoors and outdoors.

    Made by natural ingredient of,So Halal! Yadah is the solution for your kids my friend.
    Introducing this season, Yadah Skincare in collaboration with Stage Cosmetics.

    How to use: Wet hair, apply shampoo, lather and rinse off with warm water.
    Having Oily Scalp as one of the most common concerns, it is almost impossible to find the right YET affordable shampoo that would help prevent oily scalp for a day. I couldn’t believe the result of how this shampoo miraculously works for my oily scalp.  It however left my hair this way for 2 days.

    Although I find their products ridiculously good and affordable with such generous size, but just in case you aren’t certain on how your skin would react, NOT TO WORRY!
