Häagen-Dazs Ice Cream Fondue Party x Tammy's Birthday

Is it ashamed to say that it's my first time trying Häagen-Dazs ice-cream? =/ I'm such caveman LOL. A big hug and thanks to Tammy for inviting me and so that I have this first try in my 20s. *Sob sob*

So, we were all having a lunch date at Häagen-Dazs, SoHo KL. The top floor was fully owned by us.

Haha, actually nothing much about this post, I just wanna share my experience on the ice cream fondue and some of the captured moments with all the bloggers!

The party kick started with some games. So coincident that me, Angel and Chocky came under the same family teehee =D

After that, we have drawing session which allowed us to draw portrait of own self and deliver some of the wishes to Tammy.  Everyone was so focus and it made me think of kindergarten LOL

Then, Tammy gave a thank you speech to us for attending and helping out at her birthday party =D

Zoooom in version of the ice cream cake. Look so delicate right? =0

After all, it's the peak moment, the ice cream ceremony LOL.
Häagen-Dazs Ice Cream Fondue is served with fruits, cookies, cakes, different flavors of ice cream and of course some toppling like almond bits and chocolate chips.

Haha, ours table shared two fondues as there were about 8 of us. We finished the whole fondue within 30 minutes, damn kua jiong LOL. Like we have been in hunger for years.

What can I say? It's heavenly delicious and tempting!!!! The ice cream and chocolate unlike what I have at Hometown. The chocolate is thick and just fine with it's sweetness. The chocolate will freeze and fully coat around the ice cream ball, like a chocolate bomb. It's crispy and cool.

After finished two fondues, we have one more fondue again LOL. Well, kinda ridiculous though. Girls can eat a lot!!!

 All of us were given a chocolate bar as a gift of appreciation from Tammy before leaving!
Of course, I wouldn't miss out any selfie with my friends!

 Sabby with her big eyes again. Freaking contra with my eyes LOL, mine like peas.

 This is Inna, she's so cute right =D

 Guess it's the first selfie taking with the hot blondie, Sarah and Kifli!

 
All the girls!

Tadaaa, selfie with Tammy! I met Tammy in The Butterfly Project, I'm so thankful, because of her I got to join the butterfly community, meeting all the awesome bloggers and attend events! Thank you Mamasan, We love you!!!

 ------------------- Overall Rating ------------------
Baked Eye Trio (.07 oz)
The particles are very fine and smooth which make it easy to attach on our skin. The shades are blendable effortlessly and easily create extreme vibrant effects. For the application parts,it's easier to apply with bare fingers instead of brushes. The color can't stand out and need to apply times if using brushes.Yet, I love how the shades bringing shimmery effects that lasts and it won't smudge or fade off easily. It's great to own either one palette as it make our life easier when doing mix and match in colors. It's much fun to create different look with either one, two or three shades.
 *Suggested retail price at RM40/18SGD

Just For Eyes (.05 oz each)
This is my favorite palette of all. The shades of gold and black gold are usable in any occasions as it comes in earthy colors. The glitter effects are brilliant and the colors pay off, making our eyes look impressive!

Just For Lips (.05 oz each)
The texture is light compare to jelly lip gloss. It's quite alike with lip balm which comes in colors. Yet the colors are way more radiant and solid compare to lip balm. It can be used as a base before applying lip gloss to create more vibrancy lips and to make the colors last longer.

Jelly Lip Gloss (.32 fl.oz)
The texture is quite sticky and concentrated. It provides instant moisture effects with ultra glossy finish. The colors are really gorgeous especially Hot Tamale and Berry Me. Teddy Bare which closely to nude color, perfectly balance up our heavy eye make up. You will definitely need this to create juicy lips!

Mega Alpha HER Hygiene Cleanser

Hey guys, it has been awhile for me to blog. I have been stuck in the University, having class everyday from 8am till 6pm, it's like working full time LOL

Well, I have received this product two weeks ago, guess it's time to review it haha!
This is Mega Alpha HER Hygiene Cleanser (@200ml), formulated in England. It's an intimate cleanser that suits all skin type which used to keep our vagina clean and away from bacterias or odor. Using this cleanser, it can promote the vagina's natural acidic pH balance (pH3.8 to pH4.2) due to its natural antiseptic plant based properties. 

Texture and Scent
The texture is in clear liquid form. The scent is kinda alike with Dettol and herbs. Yet, it is light and refreshing. 

What are the main ingredients?
Eucalyptus Oil with anti-fungal, antioxidant and anti-bacterial properties.
Aloe Vera Extract with soothing and moisturizing effect, yet anti-itch and anti-inflammatory. Meanwhile, Aloe Vera can promote healing effect as well.
 
It's free from paraben and alcohol
Why are we so concern about paraben-free products? It's actually a kind of preservative mostly found in personal care products like cosmetics, skin care and even toothpaste which can cause allergic or more serious, it causes the development of cancer.
Moreover, it's soap-less. It cause no corrosion on skin, unlike true soap products.

How to use?
Pour small amount on your palm and apply it on wet area. Then, rinse it off thoroughly.

Who else can use?
Both Women and MEN!

Rating
It's safe to use it daily as it's paraben-free. After rinsing off, I can feel the instant cooling effect. I like the cooling after-effects as it shows some sort of refreshing feeling LOL

Party Nails with Bloop #2

In the previous post, I have reviewed on Bloop Nail Strips and this time I am going to review on Toe Strips! I felt quite sad to expose my toes actually, I am petite and so do my toes. They are freaking round and tiny, look like grapes wtf.




L
O
L


Back to Bloop toes strips. *the backdrop behind*

For toe strips, it consists of  22 strips and 1 nail file.

The direction of use is no difference with nail strips, but it's slightly tougher while cutting out the actual size of the strips to fit our toes and filing. 
1st step: Apply a top coat before applying toe strips and measure the size of your toes with the sticker.
2nd step: Cut the measured size of sticker to fit your toes.
3rd step: Pull off the stickers and stick it evenly on your toes.
4th step: File off the extra edges in vertical direction and downward motion.

 Taadaaaa~ The final result.

The close up shot for my cute toes. Kinda ugly though, it's tough to cut the sticker in shape and it took quite a lot of time around 30 minutes compare to applying nail strips =/ Yet, we need not to wait them to dry off, much convenient than doing pedicure out there.

I am quite in love with the design! You can choose your own favorite design by the way.
