I'd been very busy for past few weeks. My fil was ill. I was busy handling the kids while my husband was doing his best to take care of his father.

My fil passed away last week on tuesday while I was at home with kids. Al Fatihah to my late fil. Can u Imagine rushing from the mainlad to the island before everyone rushing for work that day. Pffft. Nasib baik cepat 10 minutes. Kalau tak memang stuck in the jem la..kena cari roti sapu jem pulak.

It was one of the reason why I've been hiatus for past few weeks. Pardon for my absence during all this while.

My small family also supposed to perform umrah this month but due to my fil health condition, the doc advice us not to. Indeed Allah is a great planner. He know the best. Hopefully there will be another chance for us to perform our Umrah soon.



So .....Now I'm back to share more n more here. Macam tak percaya...february soon will leave us. May we have a greater day by day soon.

Hai...agak ketinggalan kannnn baru nak review Maybelline Fit Me gitewwww. Alaaa better late than nevaa rite? (Brit'ish slangggg plisss)



Selalu duk tengok dekat youtube banyak la minah2 salleh duk review best kan... alaaa kita pun sebab nampak macam best ja so apa lagi moh la kita serang Watson untuk beli.

Bila tengok banyak review kata helokkk untuk muka kilats kilats lip lap kat Tzone macam mak ni...harus aku terjah untuk mencoba ya. Mai sini makjem nak tengok lepas piawaian muka kilats makjem ni ke tak haaa.

Bila sampai Watson nah tudia raplahhhh wei sebab ehhhh walawehhh banyaknya shades dia. Ewah ewah ewah. Bisa mengubati kekecewaan aku terhadap Fenty Beauty di mana code aku 180 sudah SOLD OUT!!!

Oh noooo....Mana satu harus ku pilih ini haaaa. Dah la cahaya kat Watson Gurney Plaza tu lampu dia kuning-kuning. Ehhh rimas aku kalau nak mekap ni lampu kuning kuning tauuuu. Ehhh. Aku pun tenyeh la dua tiga shades beige yang seakan-akan nak warna kulit aku.
Setelah aku try n error dan buntu..maka aku masuk ja lah fasa redhooo. Ahhh try je lah code 222 bersamaan True Beige..bukan true bitch ya.



Tapi hampa kalau nak try cari shades hampa dengan lebih mudah aku syorkan hampa pi kat website Maybelline ni kat SINI. Ha kat sini hampa jawab la skit soklan dia pastu nanti adalah dia bagi code apa yang sesuai dengan hampa nanti. Tapi sebeluk hampa nak tau code apa yang sesuai untuk hampa, hampa terlebih dahulu kena tau UNDERTONE hampa dulu. Kalau tak tau boleh refer post kami pasal UNDERTONE ni ya.

Dan mengikut website Maybelline aku sesuai la code 220. Tapi macam pungkoq jugak lah bila aku try 220 dan 222 tak banyak pun beza kalernya. Dan mengikut skema jawapan kat Maybelline pun aku jadi macam ermmm sebenarnya dalam jawapan dia takda pun code 222. Kahkahkah.

Hai nak cerita pasal sambungan dari entry Travelog / Roadtrip Phuket yang lepas.

Boleh baca di sini.

Travelog / Roadtrip Phuket : Day 3

Hari ke 4 kami pun beransur la nak balik dari Phuket sebab nak singgah ke Hatyai. Yelah, selalunya orang-orang jauh selalu pit stop kat Hatyai la kalau ke Phuket kan.



Untuk kali tu kami brunch di pekan kecil Patthalung. Nasib baik la ada kedai makan muslim kat situ. Kecik ja kedainya tak sempat pun nak ambil gambar dek sebab perut dah mendidih kelaparan kan.

Perjalanan ke Hatyai dari Phuket mengambil masa lebih kurang 8 jam. Total perjalanan campur rest makan and Ecah cirit birit 3x ada la 10jam jugak. Huahua. lebammmmm


Sampai Hatyai pun da nak dekat Maghrib. Fuhhhh. Siap check in memang elok2 dinnerrrrr time. Oh ya kami check in di Centara Hotel atas ja Centara Plaza. Memang betul-betul depan Lee Garden Plaza tu.






Selesai ja check in and solat. Kami pun meneruskan agenda jalan-jalan cari pasal ehh makan. Destinasi kami malam tu adalah di Kai Tod Daicha. Ni antara port fames di kalangan pelancong Malaysia. Wajib mai makan kat sini tau kalau mai Hatyai.

Jom la jamu-jamu mata ya.



Selesai ja makan di Kai Tod Daicha kami pun balik ke area hotel dengan tuk-tuk. Sampai ja dekat area hotel tu, jalan-jalan la dulu kan. Of course la..lepas tu boleh pulak keluar cerita hantu dekat hotel-hotel sekitar situ. Dah la laki i nak lepak-lepak mengopi kat bawah tu. And dia takmau naik atas lagi.

Aku dengan anak-anak ja naik ke bilik. Dalam fikiran tu macam-macam dah. Jangan la ada hantu siam yang keluaq weiiiiii.

Ntah bila masa ntah aku tertidur. Esoknya bangun terus siap-siap barang. Jalan-jalan dulu sekitar Lee Garden tu and cuci mata dekat Centara Plaza tu.

Hai holaaaa...
setelah berkurun lama tak blog berhabuk kan.
kali ni nak kongsikan pasal pemilihan warna / shade foundation yang betul berdasarkan warna undertone kulit kita. Seperti yang sedia maklumkan kita ni dilahirkan dengan berbagai warna kulit. Ada yang cerah, ada yang sederhana cerah..ada yang tanned. Yang cerah pun ada macam-macam warna cerah, yang neutral pun macam-macam tona pun ada sama jugak yang tanned skin.



Sebab tu lah aku tersangat-sangat lah kagum bila tau Rihanna @ Riri mengeluarkan foundation dia sendiri yang bernama Fenty Beauty dengan 40 shades yang berbeza. Makaihhhh banyak gila kan shades yang ada. Yalah, untuk fair shades pun dah ada banyak gila...tapi yang paling sadis kan kalau pi ke Sephora shades yang sesuai untuk aku da OOS.



And mengikut sales girl dekat Sephora, dia kata orang Melayu kita ni kulit gelap pun sanggup amik kod/ shades yang cerah nak mampuih...sampai tara tu obses nak putih noks. Ni sahih depa tak kenai kembaq aku Beyonce ni. Bahahah.




Right before we go thru the color shades, it's also important for us to know our own skin type; oily, dry or combination. So if we have know what type of foundation can suit our skin type; the next thing to do is finding the right color / shades that match our skin. Yeah yeah supaya kejadian Melayu lupa kulitnya tidak berlaku lagi di masa akan datang. And adalah penting umtuk kita tau kita ni jatuh category which undertone. Oklah pening ya Under Tone la Surface Tone la apa la. Ok macam ni ya, warna surface kulit kita adalah terdiri dari macam-macam warna, contohnya; ivory, beige, light, medium, olive, tan, dark , etc. Yes this is generally shades of our surface skin tone. And hell yeah, what the heck is undertone?? Undertone adalah warna di bawah surface skin kita.

Ada tiga jenis undertones;
Cool ( pink, red, bluish undertones)
Warm(yellow, peachy, golden undertones)
Neutral ( a mix of warm and cool undertones)

Konsep terpaling salah adalah, orang yang berkulit cerah mempunyai cool undertones. Contoh paling terdekat aku, kalau tengok kulit jatuh kategori cerah tapi tak lah cerah putih serlah tu ya, but my undertoned is warm (yellowish)..sebab tu aku kena pakai Nars kod Fiji ( yellowish tone)..Fiji ni fall for under light shades ya kalau dekat Nars tu. Itupun shades light yang ke 5. Kalau yang local memang aku suka Rosetyara Rose code. Ni pun memang my ultimate favourite.
And kalau celebrity pulak, Nicole Kidman adalah contoh yang mempunyai kulit cerah serlah tetapi ber undertoned warm gitu. And untuk yang berkulit gelap tetapi mempunyai cool undertones adalah supermodel seperti  Alek Wek.



Jom check macam mana nak tau undertone kita

Urat Nadi

Check di bawah cahaya matahari pergelangan tangan korang, and check urat nadi hampa warna apa.

 Emas atau Silver

Ni antara trick paling old school depa kata. Hampa look cantik dengan Silver/Platinum atau Gold/ Rose Gold? Bukan apa yang hampa suka tau. If hampa look good in both silver and gold, hampa jatuh kategori neutral undertoned. Kami rasa kami cantik dengan Gold+ Rose Gold bila mai tua2 ni.ehhhhh. But i still love my pandora bracelet cuma aku tak rasa aku cun dengan pandora tu. So i guess it makes me a total warm undertoned person.

Pertama, kita lihat pada grafik untuk memahami perbedaan antara tone warna rambut cool, neutral dan warm. Hal ini penting ketika memilih warna yang tepat untuk Anda!

Ahhhh...woman n jewellery is like a best friend. Finding the right one is quite hard, yeah same goes when it comes finding this jewellery that suits us. I've been thru "Pandora" sensational season, but now I'd loss interest in their collections. Hahaha. Too many people wearing it; so I'm done. That's it. Hahahaha

But have you heard about Trollbeads? I've been eyeing this brand for quite sometimes. So lemme tell you the story of Trollbeads...



The History

"The story about the original and unique Trollbeads all started in Denmark in 1976. The first bead, which later gave name to the Trollbeads collection, was a small bead decorated with no less than 6 faces. It was designed by Søren Silversmith and sold from his father Svend's jewellery shop in central Copenhagen. The beads were created at a time where it was fashionable to have a silver bead hanging on a leather thong around the neck. But instead of letting the bead hang in an eyelet, Søren wanted to let the leather cord go through the bead. Later on, Søren's sister, Lise, began to put the beads on silver bracelets, one on each bracelet. 

Lise opened another jewellery store and one day a customer asked to have an extra bead put on her bracelet. The storekeeper was surprised but followed the customer's wish. From then on, the adventure and Trollbeads movement started. In cooperation with the customers and according to their wishes, the collection grew. This was the invention and the beginning of an original jewellery concept that today is enjoyed worldwide."

-History of Trollbeads






Here comes the most frequently ask by everybody...Which is better? Trollbeads? Pandora?Or Thomas Sabo?

Frankly speaking it depends on your taste. So let's see what is the difference between these three jewellery.



Since:

Trollbeads- 1976
Pandora -1982
Thomas Sabo- 1984

Design:

Trollbeads: keeping the originality look, rustic look(that both women and men can wear).
Pandora : Simple, clean cut and modern with emotional value. Yeah u can choose ur charms and beads depending on your mood as well.
Thomas Sabo: Trendy, exclusive and classy feminine.

Price:

Trollbeads: I find the price is quite reasonable.
Pandora : Still reasonable ( I normally bought from PS in Aus and I do shopped it during my visit to Perth..the price is cheaper compare to Malaysia..lols)
Thomas Sabo: Damn pricey. ( I can't afford this one!)







Trollbeads have been in the market for over than 40 years, with more over 50 countries in the world. Good news, Trollbeads Malaysia is now available at Mid Valley , Sunway Pyramid, Vivacity Megamall, Kuching. I hope they will open one in Penang (pleaseee).  For more information, don't forget to visit www.trollbeads.com or Trollbeads Malaysia Fb.
