Etude House Moistfull Aloe for a Soothing and Refreshing Skin Pampering

Slightly more than 2 years when I subscribed the Bag of Love (a monthly beauty bag subscription that comes with at least 5 deluxe size beauty products for you to explore with), I got this Etude House Moistfull Aloe Skincare Kit in the July 2013 bag. Needless to say, I was very delighted to be able to get touch with my very first Etude House products (^-^)

And recently, I got hold of this set again, yeahhhh ヽ(^◇^*)/ So I decided to write a review for this wonderful product to share with you all o(^∀^*)o

Etude House Moistfull Aloe is one of my favourite skincare products. The products in this range contain two common main active ingredients; Baobab Tree and Aloe.

As some of you may have known, baobab trees live in the deserts in Africa, and is capable of storing multi-thousands liters of water to survive the scorching heat. Thus it's no wonder that this plant is very hydrating and rich in nutrients.

Aloe, needless to say, is famous for its soothing property, and also contains abundant of moisture. The gel in its leaves is claimed to have medicinal effects, being able to heal sunburns, soothe coarse skin etc.

Welcoming March 2014 with Awesome Magazines Gift with Purchase

Time flies!!! Tomorrow is already March, wow!!

As usual, I would visit the bookstores at month end to check out the new magazines release for the following month, and boy...almost all local beauty magazines for March come with GWP that I was having hard time to decide which to buy!! At the end, I walked out from the Times Bookstore at Citta Mall with empty hand lol...After few days though, I went to Borders at The Gardens and finally purchased one (yes, only one lol)...

Ok let's quickly run through what's in store for you this March :) Do note that the GWP is based on the distribution in Klang Valley yeh (cause I heard that sometimes the GWP is not available in other places) and is in no particular order ^_^

1) Eh (WM RM7)

GWP: Dove Intense Repair Conditioner trial size, and a Clarins redemption card perhaps? Not sure what's in the Clarins card, but I guess it could be a redemption card of the recently revamped White Plus Intensive Brightening Serum...the flower looks like Spergularia too lol...

The Malaysian Women's Weekly and Lisa - Awesome Gift with Purchase

Christmas is just around the corner! Everyone is busy shopping for gifting, and there’s a lot promotions, discounts, gift with purchase everywhere. And some local magazines enliven the gifting spirit too with some awesome GWP!!

Last week, I got to know from FB that The Malaysian Women's Weekly (MWW) for the month December comes with body butter from The Body Shop….I was like…WOW!!! I must get this mag!! The last GWP (that I got) from MWW was in April (Neutrogena Ageless skincare set), and then I missed the October edition (or is it November?) (some hand cream)….so I must not miss the December edition this time :D

So I went to the newsstand at Pavilion, after the pampering treat at Aupres Parkson Pavilion. To my dismay however, the magazine was left…well, just the magazine. Without the body butter. Without the extra booklets that supposed to come with MWW December. Ouch…so I left and didn’t grab a copy.

Hours later, I went to the MPH at AEON Maluri with Dad and Mom. To my delight, the MWW copies were still available!! Left four or five copies only, lucky me!! I heard that MWW Dec was selling really fast everywhere. So I grabbed one copy and made my way to the cashier counter, when another magazine caught my eyes. It was Lisa, a very affordable beauty Bahasa Melayu magazine (RM3.90 only!!). There’s a Etude House trial kit and Sunsilk sample enclosed together. Given the price at only RM3.90 per copy, it’s an awesome deal too, isn’t it? And it was the last copy, real lucky me!!


The Malaysian Women's Weekly December 2013 - RM6 per copy

So, what is so awesome with the MWW December?

The most awesome is definitely the body butter!! That's the main reason I bought MWW December hehe....there are 2 variants offered; olive and shea. The one I got is olive body butter, which is one of the best seller. The body butter is of 50ml worth RM25. (￣ー￣)

Bag of Love July Edition: Asia's Beloved Gems

I almost didn't subscribe Bag of Love July edition....but I'm really glad that I did, because the Bag of Love July edition is a COMPLETELY STEAL !!!!

I didn't subscribe the June's edition, and I did not plan to subscribe July edition either...'till Mi Mi announced I was one of the winners for Bag of Love mini contests for May edition...in order to claim the prize, I have to subscribe the next next month's edition...(curious what I won? Check this out ^_^)

So, this is the complete set of the Bag of Love July edition...yes, it's 1 Bag + 2 Boxes, rather than the usual 1 Bag...actually, winning the mini contest was not the sole reason that made me to subscribe...it's really when Mi Mi announced that there would be 2 kit sets outside the bag, that I knew I have to get this...and I have no regrets...  “ヽ(´▽｀)ノ”

For July edition, the theme is Asia's Beloved Gems...so you can expect that all the products are fromAsian countries...think of Japan and Korea....arhh, flawless white, snowy skin... (ღ˘⌣˘ღ)  

Let's talk about the bag...I mean the bag itself...When I first saw the bag picture in Bag of Love FB page, I was immediately in love with the bag...The bag is wayyyyyyyyyyyy too cute and it's in PINK!!! There's even a fluffy fur ball at the zip...cute, girlish, pinky...SWEET!!!!
