from Korea now in Malaysia
I went to Bangsar for breakfast today and while cruising around like "jaws" looking for a car park, my heart stopped beating when I passed by what seems to be a shop with a odd looking banner that says Too Cool For School. Girls, you might not know what's "too cool for school" so let me tell you something. This has got to be one of the awesome Korean skincare and beauty products in Korea that's making waves when it was first launched in 2009. Korean beauty products are already quite a hit, couple that with a rebellious streak and a dash of kwerky artsy fartsy dust and you'll have what we call "tool cool for school". Already I'm sensing their marketing strategy to look for students to be their ambassador as something so godammit cool that I wish I was a student so I can take part prancing around in school uniform acting all cool but still having that godammit flawless and pretty young thing look.
is this for real? it's here?
At first, I thought this was one of those overnight sale organized by women who went to Korea and hauled back lots of stocks to sell here. HOW WRONG! it was a real shop! the banner is just temporary. I was so happy that I might get heart attack and die when I step inside and saw so many of the products that I thought I wouldn't see! (without going to Korea). The staff said I could snap photos so I whipped out my Samsung Galaxy Camera and snap away! Hope you enjoy the photos I took!

my first too cool for school haul in Msia
Credit card system is not up yet so if you need the ATM you can go over to Affin Bank which is just across the shop. I couldn't stay long to try everything but I can tell you the price range is from RM8.90 to RM100 over from make up tools to skincare & cosmetics. Average price RM60 (more or less) for products. It's more expensive in M'sia (tax etc) but I'm still happy they're here now! Can you guess what I bought?
- pink girl jelly base (mini) rm21.40
- pink Mini Pack Set rm17.90
- milky tint (pink)
I just couldn't resist getting something from here (even though I have tons of products at home). I love the pink girl jelly base, it's pink cream that gives you a nice glow. The texture is light and blends well onto my skin! it works like Benefit's That Gal. The mini pack set in pink is going to useful for my Senka Perfect Whip foam "making" since I'm still failing at making foam balls using my hands. The milky tint is a lip tint in barbie pink, which gives you a nice natural rosy lip color. Smells like yogurt strawberry medicine haha.
