SUPER SHOW 5 BABY! PART 2!

Yes I'm back with part 2! Finally! Haha. I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas and New Year with your loved ones!

Anyway, back to the topic...

I so regret following the rules on the Wembley Arena's site! I should have just taken my big camera with my zoom lens like all the other fans! Grrrrrr. Oh and can I just mention how I didn't like some of the staff working there! They're quite aggressive! And I did not appreciate the way my precious handbag was treated at security! 

So gutted that I couldn't get any closer! Regardless of getting up extra early to buy tickets! All in all, it was worth it!

We were just about to head back to our hotel and then we heard a million ELFs screaming outside the arena/hilton hotel! SJ were staying there! Arghhhh! I even considered the Hilton hotel when booking for London! ABSOLUTELY GUTTED. Super Junior, why would you stay so close to the arena? :P The location was just...too obvious. 

This was how close I was to Kangin! He was literally under a metre away from me! In a car. Haha.
We waited for an extra hour or so in the cold/rain for Siwon to turn up...but he must have sneaked his way in as he was nowhere to be seen! I was so disappointed though as I saw everyone else but Siwon! Next time maybe!

So who does this remind you of? ;)

THANK GOD we had a KFC right next to the hotel which was opened until 2am! O

A memorable night...just sad it ended so fast.

My make up had been on my face for more than 12 hours so excuse me if I look like a scruffbag in this picture! Haha!

Someone needs to brush up on their photography skills...:P

The So's.

We resisted. Yes we did. However, I shall get one someday.

Excuse me if I look really rough in this picture. The last thing I wanted to do after like 5 hours sleep is to apply make-up. Just focus on my buddies!

Group pic finalement!

Trying to take a good picture in front of the London Eye took at least 20 attempts! It was too busy!

The toilets at this Pizza Express in Knightsbridge smelled soooo bad! And the customer service was terrible! We waited for at least 40 minutes and no one came to serve us so in the end we walked out! The waiter didn't even seem bothered that we were leaving! I was looking forward to trying Pizza Express for the very first time...never mind.

Doing what tourists do best.

It felt good to be back in my own bed! ;) Even though the hotel beds weren't too bad either! 

I had a wonderful time with my beautiful friends! I thoroughly enjoyed watching Super Junior perform! It was like a dream come true to see Siwon up close! And the other members of course! The weekend away was worth the time...and money! I must have lost like 5kg from walking around the whole of London in 2 days. Okay, that was a slight exaggeration. Sally and I however did regret not staying for longer! If only we knew earlier that Super Junior were spending a few extra days down in London after their concert...we all thought that they would have left the day after the concert...obviously not! Anyway I am looking forward to Super Show 6! I really hope they come back to England for it! It'll give me an excuse to visit London again! Haha.

Anyway, that is it for now. Hope you all enjoyed my late blog post and the huge amount of pictures!
Good night!

Elemis Balancing Lavender Toner!

OH MY OH MY! It's been quite a long time since I last updated my blog! I've been so busy with uni and work that I just simply don't have the time. It's going to be one hectic year for me at uni...but hopefully things will turn out right...

Anyway, getting back to the topic...

This was kind of an impulse buy! I needed a toner at the time and I stumbled across this one! I remember going to a spa with my friend and we saw many Elemis products, so I thought I'd give their brand a try. According to the saleswoman, this is one of their best-selling products.

This toner has lasted me for a good few months. I was so surprised at how long it lasted because I usually go through toners really quick! It has a nozzle on the bottle so maybe that's the reason... When I first started using the toner I was really unsure about it. To be honest, I disliked the scent. Normally, I don't mind lavender but for some reason, this product doesn't smell like lavender to me. It has a really strong herbal scent, which I dislike. My skin seems to be quite picky when it comes to toners and doesn't seem to react well with many. I was told by the sales assistant that this toner is suitable for individuals with combination skin, like myself. I do think that Elemis' balancing lavender toner is a decent product as it helped balance the oiliness of my skin to some extent. I would consider purchasing it again but the smell was a little off-putting. However, the scent is something you could get used to.

Rating: 4 out of 5.

August Favourites 2013!

Another month has been and gone...just like that!
August has always been my favourite month...and that's because my birthday is in August obviously! Haha.
Anyway, here are my August 2013 favourites!

1. Favourite scent: Hollister Malaia.

I love love love the smell of this perfume! It's simply...gorgeous! Don't you all just love the smell of Hollister shops? I wished my room smelled like their shops 24/7!

2. Favourite Drama: Triumph in the Skies 2 衝上雲霄II .

I'm so sad that this drama is coming to an end! I really like it! I feel so sorry for Jayden (Chi Lam) though! I really wanted Jayden and Holiday to be together...but it doesn't seem like it's going to happen! This drama is probably one of the best TVB dramas I've seen in a while! I love how there's quite a few big celebrities in this one!

3. Favourite Song: "I know" by Bii 畢書盡.

It is a sad song but I love it! It's on the soundtrack of "Love Around" which is a Taiwanese drama. Anyone else been watching it?
I must say Bii has a great voice. It's just so soothing!

4. Favourite Make-Up Item: Clinique Bottom Lash Mascara.

This was kind of an impulse buy! I had my eyes on it a very long time ago but I never thought that it was worth the price. After using it, I kind of do think that it's worth the price. It really does make applying mascara onto the bottom lashes so much easier. I have very short eyelashes like most Chinese girls and trust me, applying mascara using an ordinary brush/wand to your bottom lashes can be quite a mission. Also, it seems to be quite long lasting!

5. Favourite Skincare Product: RMK Firming Essence.

Okay, you're probably wondering why is she using a firming essence at her age...Well initially, I wanted to buy the brightening essence but the RMK counter in my area didn't have any in stock and I desperately wanted to try one out so the sales assistant suggested that I tried this one. I certainly don't regret buying it! It smells divine! It isn't often I find pleasant smelling skincare products.

6: Favourite Hair Product: Aussie 3 Minute Miracle Reconstructor. 

I love this stuff! I always feel like pampering my hair but I can never be bothered with those 10-15 minute hair masks. I'm just too impatient, hence why I think this product is great! It's affordable which is a bonus too!

7: Favourite Food: Strawberry Split.

I'm addicted to these! One of my all time favourites! For anyone living outside the UK who don't know what these are...these are strawberry ice-lollies which have vanilla ice-cream in them! So good!

8. Favourite Celebrity: George Hu 胡宇威 .

Obviously LeeHom Wang is my all time favourite but I thought I'd spice things up on here! George Hu is just so adorable...and hot of course! I love his acting! And I love his dimples! Haha. I can't wait for Sunday's episode of Love Around!

September's here already...Wow, just wow. Hope it's a pleasant month for all of you! MWAH! XOXO

Fun times.

Beautiful!

Supermodel! 

Can't believe it's been 3 years already!

May we spend many 3 years together!

Jim, who are you checking out? Haha.

Dressed for summer? I'm obviously not. 

PAPPED.

Peaceeeee!

Princess and I.

HAHAHAHA! This picture makes me laugh!

Remember to come back to visit us Jim!

GROUP PIC! Yay!

It's always nice to meet people from different backgrounds. It's interesting to see how similar/different we are. I wish all of you a wonderful future and may we all meet again someday.

Alpha-H Liquid Gold!

After seeing Youtubers rave about this particular product, I thought it was time to get my hands on one! It was my first time using an Alpha-H product, and I was kind of worried seeing as it has "glycolic acid" in it. I must admit, the word "acid" freaked me out at first. However I did a bit of research online and discovered that it actually comes from sugar cane. Also, many say that it makes your skin look better from the very first use so I was extremely tempted to give it a try. Does it live up to the hype? I would say so. This is a skin treatment that you would use on alternate nights. Whenever I used it, I would be extremely excited to see what my skin would like in the morning. It does make your skin look good in the morning, however, I wasn't exactly...WOW-ed. Whilst using this, I realised that I wasn't breaking out as much too. I'm not actually sure whether it was this particular product that was keeping the spots at bay or whether it was other stuff. It is more on the pricey side but personally I would say that it is worth it and it does last for a bit. All in all, a good product.

First Aid Beauty (FAB) Facial Radiance Pads!

I've just finished my second tub of FAB's facial radiance pads. Although I find the smell a little weird, I personally think that the product is quite good. It pretty much does what it says on the label. I did feel that these pads exfoliated and toned my skin. I wouldn't say that it reduced my visible pores much but I guess it did improve the clarity of my skin. However, I still had my "spotty" days, but I assume that is normal for people my age. It was my first time using a First Aid Beauty product and I was pleased overall. My skin can be quite picky when it comes to toners and it seemed to like this one, to some extent. One feature that encouraged me to get this product was that it's alcohol-free. I would definitely say that it's safe for those with sensitive skin. Also, I love how the pads are already soaked. It saves me from having to pour a toner onto a cotton pad which saves me time in the morning, and is simply great for lazy people like myself.

June FAVOURITES!

I've been busy working lately so I haven't been blogging as much as I would have liked to. Anyhow, I've decided to stay up and do this blog post about my June favourites!

1. Favourite Drama: A Change Of Heart (好心作怪).

I'm currently watching this! I just finished watching episode 20! I'm a huge drama addict so as soon as this was out I was like "OH YEAH, I'm watching this!" How could one not when Bosco Wong and Niki Chow are the main leads?! And may I just say that Niki Chow is really pretty! I would say that she's one of the best looking actresses in Hong Kong! I really hope that this drama has a good ending and that the two, Bosco and Niki, end up together. On the other hand, so far, so good.

2. Favourite Iphone Application: WeChat.

May I just say whoever came up with this application is a genius! It makes talking so much fun...and convenient! However, I find it hilarious how everyone speaks like a robot when using this application.

3. Favourite Skincare Product: RMK cotton pads.

I've never really been into using "expensive" cotton pads as I never saw the point in wasting money on something that you'd throw away instantly. I'd usually go for the double faced cotton pads from Boots. However, I decided to go all out and buy a box of the RMK cotton pads after trying out a sample which I was given with previous purchases. I must say that they're actually pretty good and in a way, I actually do think that they're worth it.

4. Favourite Make-up Item: Benefit's Benetint. 

I'm in love with this product yet again. It's amazing for summer as I don't tend to wear as much make-up during the summer due to hayfever, which sucks. I love how this tint can be used both on the cheeks and lips which is a win win for me. I just love products which can do more than just one thing. I also love how it's natural looking and buildable too.

5. Favourite Scent: Hollister Malaia. 

This has become one of my favourite perfumes. I could smell this all day long. It's amazing. Even my mother likes it!

6. Favourite Hair Product: Head and Shoulders Apple Fresh Shampoo. 

This shampoo smells lovely! I really like how Head and Shoulders are being more creative these days and coming out with all sorts of shampoos to satisfy various needs.

7. Favourite song: 我的歌声里 (You Exist In My Song) by Wanting (曲婉婷).

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w0dMz8RBG7g&feature=share&list=FLy89Do8JCErrZiSJLyNMUlA

My friends and I have fallen in love with this song. I've probably listened to it around a hundred times within the past two months. It's so addictive. Love her voice.

8. Favourite Food/Fruit: Watermelon.

It's watermelon season! Yay! I love love love watermelons! I do miss being in Asia and being able to drink watermelon juice on a daily basis!

What are/were your June favourites?
