vivo Malaysia Teased to Launch X50 Series in 3 Dazzling Colour Variants

vivo Malaysia has recently confirmed to launch its upcoming flagship – vivo X50 series with three gorgeous colours. Throughout the years, vivo saw infinite possibilities in combining both technology and aesthetic design in creating hype and unique differences for the audience; in a true sense, it was a representation of cutting-edge technology meeting high fashion.

With that, vivo X50 series come in 3 elegant tinctures, which include Frost Blue, Glaze Black and Alpha Grey. vivo has also utilised the Anti-Glare frosting process that are able to change the device’s colour depending on different viewing angles.

Among the 3 colours that are known to be released in Malaysia, the Frost Blue version carries medium-light shade of cyan-blue, where its smooth surface reflects the beam of light like opal; Glaze Black brings futuristic blend of onyx hues and metallic shades that shimmer like a mirror; while the Alpha Grey is a work of illusory futurism that creates the best mix of both advance technology and high fashion.

HEXINFASHION - Your Functional Body Shapewear Supplier and more...

Hi lovelies! It's time for online shopping again, since I have not been visiting the malls for some time now. And guess what I found this time around? It is some intimate wear by a site called HEXINFASHION which has claimed that they supply the best full body shapewear. Apart from that, the online shopping site also features a wide variety of latex waist trainers, neoprene sauna vest, 3D-print butt lift sportswear, swimwear, lingerie and more.

 

Skin Color Full Body Shapewear

(Direct link: HERE)

One of the functional body shapewear which has caught my attention is this skin-colored full body shapewear which can help shape the upper body, waistline, butt and thigh areas. Most importantly, the skin color shapewear blends well with our natural skin color and does not look very obvious for a day-to-day use. By wearing this, you would probably eat lesser and have a better posture. Time to enjoy the slimming effect too! :P 

For those in plus sizes, you are on an advantageous side because you can get cheap plus size lingerie from HEXINFASHION too. Again, the types of designs, styles, types of materials and colors are abundant to choose from, as they have a professional team to design and discover new products for all ranges of sizes. 

For those businesses who are interested, they also offer wholesale / bulk purchases, dropshipping and OEM/ODM services as they have warehouses in Xiamen, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, Yiwu and LA USA. Feel free to contact them to enquire further.  

Black Sheer Mesh Bodysuit

(Direct link: HERE)

Personally, what also attracts me is the cheap bodysuits range which are available in beautiful colors such as pink, white and black. This piece of bodysuit with cute sheer mesh sleeves is extra easy to match with any bottoms such as high-waisted skinny jeans, short skirts etc. Super lovely right?

Anyway, wish you happy shopping with HEXINFASHION!

[BEAUTY] Summer Sale @ THE FACE SHOP (with promo code!)

SUMMER is here! ❤

Are you ready for summer? Although this year we can't really enjoy the summer vibes by the beach or sea, there is no reason not to embrace the summer heat and enjoy some summer shopping spree :P

BUY 2 @ 25% OFF

for Sun Care, Soothing Gel and Face Mist range

....and how can I miss it? I am excited to share with you

some of my summer favourites to combat the heat!

Jeju Aloe 99% Fresh Soothing Gel (300ml)

This world-famous Aloe Gel is no stranger to us. This huge jar of fresh soothing gel sold at exceptionally affordable price is my personal favourite over all these years because it functions well as a quick moisturizer, soothing gel, facial mask, sunburn reliever, and after-sun care. 

Perfect to hydrate and cool down the skin anytime anywhere you want.

Remember to stock up a few jars and store them in the fridge for even better cooling effect.

Power Long Lasting Pink Tone Up Sun Cream SPF 50+ PA++++ (50ml)

We can go out without makeup, but never without sunscreen! Always remember that it is a must everyday regardless of shine or rain although we usually wear mask when going out.

I personally prefer sunscreen with powerful UV protection level, but what's better is this tone-up sunscreen with light pink color as it creates brighter and more naturally toned up, even skin texture. Good to go as a 2-in-1 sunscreen and makeup base.

CNP Propolis Ampule Mist (100ml)

Finally, let this intensively nourishing face mist help set your makeup and moisturise your skin after wearing the face mask all day long. I enjoy the lovely scent coming from the extracts of Amazon bee's propolis, and the mist spray is much finer than the usual face mist.

Great as a quick fix to perk up the tired-looking skin, anytime anywhere I like.

[BEAUTY] Review: Mamonde Blue Chamomile Soothing Repair Cream

Say Hello to the latest floral-inspired cream with

3-in-1 calming, soothing and moisturising effects!

Following my previous review on one of Mamonde's bestsellers, the Red Energy Recovery Serum, here comes the "new sister of the family" - Blue Chamomile Cream, my emergency relief daily moisturiser! 

Mamonde Blue Chamomile Soothing Repair Cream (50ml) @ RM125

Mamonde has always been famous for creating new "skin recipes" using a wide variety of flowers such as honeysuckle, hibiscus, rose, lotus etc. And now it is using blue chamomile flower to create a rich soothing cream to relieve sensitive skin. 

How does the Blue Chamomile Cream work?

1) Lock moisture for 72 hours

2) Cool down the skin by -5.7°C

3) Reduce redness by 13.2%

From ultra-fine to 3D, it contains 5 types of hyaluronic acid sizes to relieve internal dryness and fully hydrate the skin. Meanwhile, the blue essential oil extracted from the blue chamomile flower called Azulene helps soothe the skin, reduce redness and strengthen skin barrier.

 

How To Use:

Step 1: Micro Deep Cleansing Foam

Step 2: Chamomile Pure Toner

Step 3: Red Energy Recovery Serum

Step 4: Blue Chamomile Cream

Step 5: Sun Protection

4 simple steps every day and night, and I'm done! The refreshing, gel cream texture soothes the skin almost instantly upon application. I love how it melts so quickly into the skin without leaving any stickiness or discomfort. Since the cream feels so light, it can be applied multiple layers for that extra soothing effect.  

As Mamonde products (which is why I always love them so much!) is famed for its mild floral formula and free from 7 harmful ingredients, it is suitable for troubled (acne-prone) skin or delicate and sensitive skin. 

 VERDICT

Mamonde Blue Chamomile Cream works wonder as an instantaneous soothing and moisturising remedy. Highly recommended for those with dry skin, redness or sensitivity. It can be used on skin with recent sunburn or small blemishes due to heat too. 

Retailing at RM125 (50ml), the Mamonde Blue Chamomile Cream is available at major Watsons store, Watsons Online and other  platforms via Hermo.my and Lazada.com.my.

3rd Anniversary Desserts @ Upperhouse Kitchen & Dessert Bar, Bangsar

It's been a while since I last explored new dessert creations, but I must admit that the recent dessert experience at Upperhouse Kitchen and Dessert Bar is an eye opener to me. I'm sure Upperhouse is no stranger for those who often go for cafe hopping in the popular Bangsar area.

Conveniently tucked along Jalan Telawi, Upperhouse has its own repertoire of a’la carte offerings which range from the well-loved Western dishes to specialty plated desserts and chocolates.

Upperhouse 3rd Year Anniversary Event

Date: 29 June - 12 July 2020

Event Details:

1. 50% OFF all items during the anniversary period.

2. Pre-order with payment for Anniversary Desserts (Childhood and Angry Chef’s Plate)

to enjoy 50% off this treat

Anniversary Desserts

Childhood @ RM65 

Haw Flakes, Ribena Puff, Cotton Candy, Kaya Cream Puff,

Orange Sugar Marshmellow, Vitagen Panna Cotta

First to impress us is the platter of "deconstructed" dessert which is beautifully composed layer by layer (from red to yellow and green) using our childhood favourite ingredients to tell a tale of the good ol' times. 

Served on a marble platter, this enormous serving of dessert can easily feed 3-4 pax (or more!). I personally love the tangy flavours from the raspberry sorbet (red) and passion fruit sorbet (yellow), and they go well with the sweet strawberries, savoury cheese cake cubes and childhood cookies.

Angry Chef’s Plate @ RM45

Flex Chocolate Ganache, Praline, Meringue, Raspberry Basil Ice Cream, Gold Leaf, Yogurt Boba

I am not sure how is the second Signature Anniversary Dessert named after an "angry chef", but to me it looks like a romantic creation of love handled with much care.

Taking the centrestage is a "chocolate nest" filled with heart-shaped chocolates which are adorned with gold leaf, and it is surrounded by swirls of raspberry ice cream to give a pop of red in the platter. Perfectly great for lovebirds, especially on a date night! (Well, that's just my personal interpretation of art)

Choco Cigar @ RM10

Dark Chocolate, Popping Candy, Hazelnut Feuillantine, Chocolate Cake, Hay Ice Cream, Coffee Cream

Other desserts on Upperhouse's menu are equally noteworthy, for instance the thick chocolate stick which looks exactly like a real cigar! Don't be deceived by how it looks; it is a huge surprise once you sink the teeth into this choco cigar. The hidden ingredients in the cigar yield a wonderful synchronicity of taste and texture. Enjoy! 

Hot Food

Salmon Chips @ RM15

Salmon, Truffle Aioli, Cucumber

Of course, Upperhouse is not just a dessert haven but also offers all-day hot food items. We start with a serving of crisp salmon chips dipped with truffle aioli for communal sharing before we indulge in more savoury offerings in the cafe.

Honey Chicken Kale Salad – RM 25 

Kale Salad, Honey Glazed Salad, Cucumber, Capsicum, Garlic Roasted Cherry Tomatoes, 

Toasted Walnut, Cranberry, Roasted Sesame Dressing

The salad comes in the nick of time when we need a refreshing kick. Drenched in roasted sesame dressing, the kale salad features a delicious, juicy slab of honey chicken chop which yields perfect sweet-savoury enjoyment on the palate. Every bite is so satisfying and I must say the portion is generous too.

Grilled Chicken Burger @ RM31

Grilled Paprika Chicken, Hash Brown, Onion Jam, Jalapeno, Cheddar, Brioche

What entices all of us with an aromatic whiff from far is the huge grilled chicken burger - I mean, look at the layers of grilled paprika chicken with crisp hash brown, creamy sweet onion jam and cheese, all stacked between the fluffy brioche bun. Definitely a good choice for big eaters. 

Garlic Chilli Aglio Olio @ RM18

Red Chilli, Garlic, Parmesan, Cherry Tomato, Capsicum, Rocket Leaves, Sesame Oil

If you prefer something less meaty, the garlic chilli aglio olio would probably suit your palate as it contains crisp greens delights with an added hint of garlicky spiciness. Simple yet extravagantly flavoured, it is an epitome of soul food. 

Kombucha Float @ RM15

Passionfruit and Mint Kombucha, Yogurt Mousse, Mango Passionfruit Sorbet

As a finale, the kombucha float appears - a zesty scoop of mango passionfruit sorbet sitting pristinely atop the creamy concoction of yogurt mousse and kombucha. I take a sip of this fermented drink and it tastes perfectly smooth and easy to drink like a smoothie. 

If that is not your cup of tea, you can choose from their extensive coffee and juice list where you can pick whatever that suits food (and dessert!) pairing and individual taste.

Verdict:

Upperhouse is a perfect spot for creative desserts and Western-style comfort food. Ideal for small gatherings and parties too.
