Mama Foo and Korean Cosmetics

Hello my darlings! Eeyer, sound so bimbo.

Before I start off my post, just wanna wish my mama HAPPY BIRTHDAY! Even if your birthday is already over in Malaysia :( It hasn't ended here! 3 more hours heh :)



Papi, mama and I back in 2012 at St Annes Church, Penang. Our yearly family trip! Love you and miss you so much mama, may you always be so young and beautiful :)




Lately I've discovered this really awesome online shop that sells Korean cosmetics, from makeup to moisturisers to masks, they have it! This site carries a lot of popular Korean brands that you get from Malaysia as well, Laneige, Etude House, Nature Republic, Skin Food just to name a few :) 


Back home, I never really appreciated/tried out any of these products (except Laneige) and I always took them for granted till I realised how hard it was to get ANY asian products here! I mean it's easier in the states because they have skin food and japanese makeup stores and stuff but not here :( Well there is one in London's Chinatown, but they're a total rip-off I swear. Too pricey. Compared to the brands they have here in UK, I would prefer Asian products and lets just say I trust Korean products a lot, but I wasn't willing to pay the prices up in London

OKAY! So back to this website. Few months ago was the first time I ordered from them.  I only got this aloe vera gel because it was getting such good reviews and I love the smell of aloe. So I gave it a try! (Plus it was very cheap heh)


The only downside of this is that most the instructions are in Korean. 
When I first got this package in the mail, I was so surprised to find that the "shipping address" was no where in the UK. They deliver directly from their headquarters in South Korea!  Which I think is super amazing.  The BEST PART IS..


FREE DELIVERY!

Which I find is super amazing because the aloe was only £5. PLUS! They gave me free samples too!



Which was craaaazy generous of them!

And today I received 2 more packages from them! (heh, there was a sale and I couldn't resist) Oh! And did I mention, that they have sales/offers from time to time for certain brands and when they do, sometimes its even cheaper than Malaysia! (even after conversion)

SEE! Shipped from Koreaaa :)

Blade it open like how you would blade open the heart of your enemies


Bubble wrap yay!

I swear by Laneige Water Bank range. The smell is heavenly and its so gentle to your skin.  And it is really really moisturising to the skin! It really feels like snow, la neige is French for snow :)


These were the other 2 that I bought! And it was seriously cheaper than if I got it back home. So.. my mama let me buy it here :3 double yay!

The water sleeping pack is seriously amazing. It really does what it says "brightening and moisturising".  My mum initially got me this because it was some award winning Asian product and my mum cannot say no to a good promoter who compliments her, but I never really paid attention to it.  Only used it when I wanted to pamper myself after a stressful day.  But yesterday! I closely examined(lol) my face before I put the mask on, and this morning after I washed it off, my face looked much much fairer and brighter! :3 But my dark circles were really dark because I'm still sick :( So it really stood out.




I also got this as a free sample! (it actually is very small, look how big my thumb looks)
I have no idea how to use this tomato.



YAY FREE CLAY! So cute wei the packaging! :3 

And I got another 2 more samples of BB cream :) So yeah! Very "dai" as we Malaysians would say :3

If there are any boys out there reading this, no we do not simply take tomato, mud and snow to rub all over our faces.  If you guys want to try, go ahead.  I strongly recommend using durians



ALSO! I GAINED A LOT OF BUBBLE WRAP IN THE PROCESS HEHEHE

I love the sound of bubble wrap, the sweet sound of fracture on my enemies spine.

Goodnight x

Yellow yellow dirty fellow




Yellow my fellow bloggers and bloggettes! 

Random post because nothing interesting has been happening lately.  Well except me catching a cold but it doesn't seem very interesting to post about my bin loads of tissues and germs.  Wait, to clarify things : 

Cold(to the people in UK) : sore throat, runny nose and maybe sometimes a slight fever
Cold(taught to me by my family) : runny/stuffy nose = flu (apparently it's very inaccurate) 


MY LIFE IS A LIE.

I've got the UK version of the cold by the way.

Because of this annoying son of a Mumford cold, I've restricted myself to a very limited diet.

Basically all I've eaten for the past few days are porridge (the Malaysian rice porridge, not the "UK" oats porridge), cereal, jam sandwiches and a couple of fruits.


Bleh, I actually have no idea where this was going.  I just wanted to make a post of yellow things :3

Here it goes!




Curse asymmetric sandwiches! Was so annoyed when I was eating this, I'm not OCD, just weird.


Jam sandwiches :)

I'm yellow too!


Okay that's all I've got ._. Yea, that was a fail u_u I swear, I could do with a little bit more artistic talent/creativity. I had this whole yellow-item-collage in my head that I could have done but meh.


Oh well.

Till next time my pretty pumpkin people! Keep fighting!
