STREET MOTION | Street Style Outfit








This was the first outfit I wore outside ever since returning to the UK. Yes, I was feeling chilled after a while and my friends were wondering if I was insane. Definitely need to start transitioning my summer outfits to make them more suitable for the UK weather. Ah, missing the 35 degrees heat of Hong Kong.

I wore this top a lot in Hong Kong; can't get enough of graphic tops! My favourite colour pallet to reach for. Black and white makes a classic edgy statement, where as the red makes the outfit bold and eye catching. I wore these awesome "LOVE LOVE LOVE" braces I got from Mong Kok, as it adds more edgy detailing to the outfit. Finished this outfit off with a classic red lipstick to complement this bold look. I would layer a leather jacket on top and wear black tights to transition this outfit for autumn. It would look even more edgy too. ^.^

Outfit Details:

Glasses: Dresslink
Top: Cici Cat
Shorts: River Island
Braces: Mong Kok
Shoes: Topshop 

Have you guys been on holiday recently? ^^ (and hopefully dressing accordingly to your country's weather xD)

我的美麗日記 My Beauty Diary Ultra Facial Cleanser Review



You've most likely heard of My Beauty Diary sheet masks, but what about their cleansers? My first time too~ My Beauty Diary has a series called Ultra Cleansing; there are currently two products, the Ultra Facial Cleanser and Micellar Cleansing Water. MBD Micellar Cleansing Water is very hyped on the Taiwan program - Beauty Queen (女人我最大). Today i'll be reviewing the Ultra Facial Cleanser~ it needs some appreciation too! ^.<


Product Description

"My Beauty Diary's Ultra Facial Cleanser penetrates your pores and gently dissolves away makeup, grime and sebum. Along with its water-locking and moisturizing elements HYALO-OLIGO, NA-PCA and Trehalose, experience refreshed and hydrated skin after cleansing!"

The cleanser doesn't contain oil, parabans, mineral oils or pigment, so it would be great for those with sensitive skin. The foam has a gel-like texture, that bubbles up when you lather it. Doesn't really have a scent - very neutral. Cleanses gently, feels moisturising and not drying when cleansing. Huge plus to those with dehydrated skin, as it moisturises whilst removing all the dirt. It leaves your face feeling clean and smooth, not tight or dry. (YASSS can't stand cleansers that make my skin feel like sandpaper! ;__;)


It didn't break me out and helped my skin clear up the more I used it. I love how moisturising it is, yet is still able to cleanse my makeup off and all traces of dirt. Not a super impressive product but it does job the really well and what it claims, so I would recommend this to those that are looking for a cleanser that doesn't strip moisture from your skin and hydrates it. ^^

Pros:

  • Does not contain oil, parabans, mineral oils or pigment
  • Super affordable
  • Does the job - cleanses gently and moisturises
  • Skin does not fell tight or dry after usage
  • Suitable for all skin types

Cons:

  • People living outside of Asian countries will need to purchase it online~

Rating: 8/10

If you want to try the cleanser out for yourself~

In Singapore it retails for $7.95 (exclusive at Watsons)
In Hong Kong, $55 (exclusive at Manning's)
You can also purchase it online ^^ 

Have you tried out a new cleanser recently? :')

Hair Update #2 | Hair Q - Tai Po, Hong Kong Hair Salon Review


Getting your hair cut can be quite daunting huh? Especially when you're getting it cut in another country! >//< I always get my hair cut whenever i'm in Hong Kong, i've had some wonderful experiences and some welllll... a fricking waste of money. :) So having hair salon reviews are definitely very helpful. Today i'll be reviewing Hair Q~

I chose to go Hair Q, as my auntie recommended it and I remember BubzBeauty used to get her hair done here too. (anddddd because majority of hair salons recommended on the first page of Google were expensive af, don't want to waste HK$1700 again. I'm a broke student yo!)

Hair Q is located at Uptown Plaza Shopping Centre, Tai Po. I spontaneously went in without an appointment as I didn't plan to get my hair cut that day. As a last minute person, do I ever plan anything lol. Even without an appointment, the wait wasn't particularly long. I waited probably 20-30 minutes before a lady took me to get my hair washed. 

Waiting area~


After washing and conditioning my hair~
My hair smelt like apples; they also massage your head when rinishing, it was soooo nice. :') I found it interesting that Hong Kong salons usually wash their client's hair before cutting. In the UK it's the other way round.


The person that cut my hair was called Kay. I didn't have a hairstyle I was after, so I just asked him to trim 2 to 3 inches and cut what he thinks is best. He was very friendly and answered all my questions, as well as giving me useful hair advice.

*Apologies for the lack of photos, as there were other customers. ><

Hair before cutting~


Hair after cutting~


LOVE LOVE LOVEEEEEEE the results! All my dead ends are gone, my hair looks much healthier and fuller too. I feel like an anime character~ What makes me even happier about the hair cut, is that Kay actually only cut 2 to 3 inches and not a good proportion off like my previous hair stylists have. Finally, someone that understands the definition of a trim! Overall I am super pleased, the service and skill was pretty good. I had my hair washed, cut and blow-dried for $168 which is suchhhhhh a good price for such a pretty hair cut. Would definitely visit them again when I next visit HK. :') 

If you ever plan on visiting them, details:
Location: Uptown Plaza Shopping Centre, Tai Po (ground floor)
Tel: 2651 7765

Have you had your hair cut recently too? If so what was your experience like? ^^

MEOW | FIVEPOUNDTEE




Meow meow~ bet you wasn't expecting the mother fxcker at the end? xD This graphic is tee quite a statement I must say; the swaggy cat grabs attention to basically say "hai bxtch~". I kept the quote low key in this outfit by tucking it under a skater skirt. Makes it more appropriate for casual wear (and to reduce the amount of profanity on my blog xD). The shirt will pair lovely with any colour skirt, I chose maroon simply because it matches my hair. :') On days where I feel more expressive, I simply pair this tee with black skinnys and let the tee do talking.

Also thank you to everyone that entered the Circle Lens Giveaway! The lucky winner is Sora Kim - congratulations! ^_^ I'm planning to do more giveaways in the future, so there's many more opportunities to come if you didn't win this time~ ^.^

Outfit Details:

Shirt: fivespondtee (sponsored by fivepoundtee)
Skirt: River Island

Do you have any "expressive" shirts? ^^

SHOWER SHELFie - Shower Confidential | What's in my bathroom.


Shower SHELFie - get the pun? ^.< Photo of the current products I use during and after my showers~

I always talk about my bath experiences in my Lush bath bomb reviews, so I may as well share my shower confidential with you guys. :') This shower routine is a basic one, so that I can quickly refresh myself ready to seize the day ahead. I don't really switch it up apart from shower gels and hair masks. On mornings where I have more time or desire a bit of pampering, I switch over to high end products. Which I shall write about some other time, so this post won't be too long hopefully~ ^^


Starting off from left to right~

• Imperial Leather Enchanting Romance Body Wash 

I only go for two scents - fruity or seductive florals. Not a huge fan of calming/ocean scents (apart when I'm stressed). Currently loving this shower gel! The key notes to the fragrance are plum blossom and violet, which creates this beautifully seductive scent. Although the plum does reminds me of Christmas, giving me a festive vibe rather than sensual. Along with the lovely scent, it also does a pretty good job at moisturising, so kudos to Imperial Leather!

• femfresh Daily Intimate Wash 

I was sent this item by femfresh but I actually ended up adoring the product more than I expected. It's so refreshing and soothing, it is now one of my favourite shower essentials! Getting a bit intimate like the wash, femfresh's Daily Intimate Wash is great for taking care of sensitive skin (down below). Just like the rest of your body, it's essential to give some love to even the most sensitive areas of your bodies, which is why femfresh works great since has a fantastic low pH formula to meet the needs of intimate, delicate and sensitive skin easily bothered by perfumes and harsh soap-based cleansers. You can also use this as a body wash or face wash because the formula is that gentle, making it very versatile. ^.<

• Herbal Essences Hello Hydration Shampoo 

My go to drugstore shampoo. I've had my whole head bleached 4 or 5 times in total; how my hair is still in pretty good condition with my constant dying on top, I don't know. But I believe this shampoo plays a little role in helping my hair, the hydration it offers is bliss. It also smells amazing like all Herbal Essences product do. 

• Kao Essential Ultra Honey & Shea Butter Hair Mask - Rich Premium 

You may have seen this mask in My Top Hair Mask For Damaged Hair. I don't use conditioner because wellllll this mask plays the main role in keeping my hair alive! My hair feels straw-like when I use conditioner so I like to stick to hair masks. I do use other hair masks too but I always end up running back to this baby. 

• Soap & Co Body Scrub Large Passion Fruit 

Scrubs and exfoliators are essential to me as I have keratosis pilaris, which is a skin condition where too much keratins builds up, causing the surface of the skin to thicken. Exfoliating dead skins cells and moisturising is a must. On the pricy side, I am yet to find an cheaper alternative body scrub that works as well as Soap & Co's one. Packed with sea salt, minerals and natural moisturising oils, it honestly blesses my skin. I use this before my shower gel, it leaves my skin baby smooth and so hydrated! Loveeeee it~


• Superdrug Cocoa Butter Body Lotion 

I'm not really fussed with body lotions as long as they smell nice. I prefer Superdrug's cocoa over Palmers as it's more light. It moisturises and smells great, but not one of my favourites as I mentioned before I prefer fruity or seductive floral scents. 

• femfresh Everyday Care Freshening and Soothing Cloths 

Of course sensitive skin also requires care after cleansing too. ^.< To keep fresh throughout the day (especially when mother nature strikes) these are very useful. Also formulated with a gentle and low, pH formula , they do a brilliant job at cleansing, refreshing and soothing. These are almost like baby wipes but it's focused on making your intimate skin happy clean.

• The Body Shop Mango Body Butter 

Surely everyone knows of the body shop body butters. :') The mango one is formulated for very dry skin, it's very thick, melts, moisturises and nourishes intensely. I love the sharpness of the fresh mango fragrance, can't get enough of it! I don't recommend this during summer though, as it does feel quite heavy.

What are some of your shower/bath essentials? ^^ Show me your SHOWER SHELFie, let's get it trending hue~

Nature Republic Fresh Green Tea 70 Emulsion Review





This is actually my first Nature Republic product~ I would be lying if I said I didn't purchase it because of SM. With Girls' Generation's Taeyeon using the Snail Solution line and EXO promotional cardboard cut-outs placed outside of every Nature Republic store, I was intrigued to give it a try! Who doesn't want their skin looking like KPop idols? *^*

Green tea products are great for blemish, oily, combination and sensitive skin. It provides moisture and is not oily. The emulsion's main ingredients are green tea leaves and blue lagoon water. Boseong fresh green tea leaves are concentrated with catechins and vitamin C, which help make your skin clear and healthy. Polynesia Blue Lagoon MD Water is loaded with minerals to provide excellent moisture, the water also helps to strengthen the skin's moisture retention capability.

You get 180ml of product. It has a sharp fresh lemon scent rather than a calming green tea one. The texture is light and feathery~ It absorbs into the skin quickly, leaving your skin feeling moist and refreshed. For my sensitive skin friends~ this emulsion is very veryyyyy gentle, so hopefully you shouldn't experience any problems with it.


I've been using it for a good few months now (day and night) and I really like it! There's this lovely fresh cooling sensation when you apply it. It feels like the emulsion is feeding my skin loads of moisture and my skin is drinking it up, since it absorbs so quickly. It makes my skin appear healthier and clearer, as well as soothing my redness. ^.^ Definitely recommend this! It moisturises and soothes very well. You get a lot of product that will last agesss. The only downside is that the bottle doesn't have a pump, you have to tap/shake the bottle in order to get the product out. Which can get a little messy sometimes, as it's hard to control. >.< But overall an amazing product and I wouldn't mind repurchasing it again. :')

Pros:

  • Loads of product!
  • Suitable for all skin type
  • Refreshing and moisturises skin
  • Smells good~ not overwhelming 

Cons:

  • No pump - need to shake bottle to get product out

Rating: 9/10

Have you tried any Nature Republic products? ^.^ If so, which ones?
I want to try out the Snail Solution line next :D

Schwarzkopf Live Color XXL Hair Dye - Mystic-Violet V87 (On Bleached Hair) Review

Superdrug 


It's been agessss since i've last wrote about my hair! >.< As a few people requested me to do so again, I shall with my most recent hair colour (which I will be getting rid of this week lululul and no my hair will not fall off!). I died a little inside before I dyed my hair this colour because I didn't want to get rid of my pastel hair! I needed to dye it darker to get my Identity Card done. Never do I want to dye my hair back black and brown is toooo boring, so opting out for a dark purple seemed like a good choice. Dark enough for my ID, yet still gives me a pop of colour. I didn't take a photo of the box contents this time, as it's your typical usuals - developer, colour cream, after treatment, instruction leaflet and gloves.

Hair Dying Process:

I first mixed the developer and colour cream together to form the dye and then applied it to my hair in sections. The dye is dark so it will stain your hands, be sure to wear the gloves provided or your own! The gloves provided are the really big, it won't cling onto your hands, so it may provide difficulties to people with small hands (actuallyyyyy including my average sized hands too) during application. One box was enough to cover my long, my hair has been thinned out so you may require another hair if you have thick hair. After 30 minutes, I rinsed out the hair dye and applied the after treatment. The after treatment is average, it wasn't bad but it didn't leave my hair noticeably soft either. 

Results:

My hair colour before dying it - lilac and pastel pink ombre~ I MISS THIS COLOUR! T___T


After 30 minutes of dying. The colour matches the box perfectly!


The second my hair was dried I loveeeedddd it and couldn't stop staring at it for a few minutes. Got to appreciate the beautiful vivid colour you know! It makes me look more approachable now lolol - some people were intimidated by my pastel pink hair before .___. (sorrryyyyy - trust me i'm actually nice and don't bite! Maybe ^.<) I found Mystic Violet lasted longer than the other colours i've tried from the Live Colour XXL range. The dye made my hair look healthier and shinier so kudos to this dye!

Pros:

  • Beautiful vibrant colour
  • Make hair appear shinier and healthier
  • Easy to use
  • Even coverage
  • Easily accessible from any UK drugstore

Cons:

  • Contains ammonia
  • Gloves are too big

Rating: 9/10

What hair colour are you currently rocking? Tell me in the comments below~ :')
Thanks for reading, have a great day! ^__^

ETUDE HOUSE Korean Beauty Haul #1


Whilst exploring Causeway Bay, my friend wanted to check out Etude House's nail polishes. I ended up walking out the store with a few impulsive purchases but neither of us had any nail polishes~ xD So here is a small haul! :') I luckily managed to pick up something from the Dreaming Swan limited edition collection that features fashion illustrator - Kerri Hess.

x Criss Cross x / Hong Kong Street Style Outfit



Super super quick outfit post before I take my flight back to the UK and so that I don't neglect my blog~ Apologies for the lack of proper outfit photos. Ooo, first post with my new temporary hair colour. :') This is was the outfit I wore for my first time clubbing in Lan Kwai Fong, a really famous district for clubs, bars, restaurants etc in Hong Kong. The view is utterly gorgeous and the nightlife is so alive! UK nightlife does not even compare. 


I went for casual look rather than a sexy club one as I was shopping the whole day before hand. So to be frank, it's not really a club outfit xD. Plus in Lan Kwai Fong there are quite a lot of people that club in casual wear i.e tank top and shorts. Advised by my friends; I wore flats instead of heals as Lan Kwai Fong is full of hella steep hills, not a good idea to walk around in heals when you're tipsy/drunk. The crop top im wearing is DIYed, it originally was part of a dress that I did not like and decided to cut it up. You can never go wrong with a monochrome pairing, so I paired it with a black high waisted tuutuu skirt. This skirt is a great choice as the high waisted style helps to cover up and not expose much skin. The tuu tuu gives a feminine princess touch too.

Outfit Details:

Top: DIYed
Skirt: Double Step
Shoes: Gabour 

Once I get back, loads more (hopefully) fun and interesting content is on the way~ I shall try feature these items in future outfits so that you get a better view of them~ ^^ For now see you guys until i reach the other side of the world ^.^

Have you guys been aboard or traveled somewhere new this summer? ^^

The Body Shop Vitamin E Sink In Moisture Mask Review



My skin has been getting random dry patches due to sensitivity to weather changes and pulling constant all-nighters, so I decided to try out the Body Shop moisture sink in mask to hydrate and help repair my skin. The mask contains Vitamin E to nourish and protect the skin, cotton seed oil and rice bran to provide intense moisture and organic soya oil to moisturise and heal. The perfect benefits i'm looking for!

To use this mask, you simply apply a thin layer onto your skin and leave it on for 10 to 15 minutes and then tissue off the excess as recommended. However, I like to leave it on overnight for an intensive treatment and like a sleeping pack. A small amount is enough to cover your entire face. It also has a cooling sensation when you apply it.

The mask has a gel like texture due to the glycerin - great for dehydrated skin. It sinks/melts into the skin well, absorbing in all the good stuff within seconds and does not leave any residue behind. It also has a light rose scent.


I used this mask multiple times a week and found that it didn't really do much for me. It leaves my face feeling refreshed and soft after usage; delivers moisture to my skin but not particularly well. The hydration is temporary and does not last. There are better products that would be able to offer more moisture. Not a bad product, just quite average in my opinion. I am unlikely to repurchase it. I have read some other reviews where users experienced stinging, I believe this is because the mask is more suited towards dehydrated skin rather than dry or sensitive skin. I have not experienced any stinging myself thankfully.

Pros:

  • Absorbs in quickly
  • Leaves the face feeling refreshed and cool
  • Non greasy - does not leave residue behind
  • A little goes a long way
  • Delivers a little moisture

Cons:

  • Contains parabens (preservatives)
  • Hydration does not last
  • NOT actually suitable for all skin types

Rating: 6/10


Have you tried out any of the Body Shop Vitamin E products? ^^
