Anyhow, I’m finally doing the review today, as a blog post, because I figured that maybe Youtube just doesn’t like Vitacreme B12. haha!

Okay, for those who don’t know what these products do, they are basically a multi-functional cream, much like Nivea, but whats so special about it, is that it is currently the only cream on the market, that contains Vitamin B12. Both are made from Switzerland.

Vitacreme B12 Anti-aging serum and Regenerative Cream

First of all, I want to clear that I love the both of the products. They are definitely great for any age or skin type.

It was first recognised because Japanese actress Norika Fujiwara had raved about it and said it was the reason behind her beautiful skin. At 40, she still looks so young and her skin is definitely glowing.

“About VITACREME B12

VITACREME B12 is the first cosmetic cream containing Vitamin B12. CHECK your cosmetic creams. You will not find another cosmetic cream
containing Vitamin B12 or cyanocobalamin. With its deep penetration capability,it helps regenerate, nourish and moisturize your skins tissues. Although VITACREME B12 is recommended as a night cream, it may be applied as an essence, a day cream or a make-up base.

VITACREME B12 is manufactured by the cutting edge cosmetic technology of a Swiss laboratory in Lausanne. The result of more than 15 years of pharmacological and clinical tests, benefiting from references from well known neutral experts on the European plan.VITACREME B12 is tested and under permanent control of the Swiss Vitamin Institute.

Reseach & development have been concentrated on the formula for a cosmetic cream containing Vitamin B12 to meet our endless desire to preserve healthy and younger looking skin. In 1998, after 25 years of continuous study and effort, the research team was able to successfully and economically combined Vitamin B12 with naturally derived ingredients in a safe and stable formula without destroying its extraordinary properties.”

The first one I’m going to review is the Anti-aging serum.

The texture of this serum is very watery. It smells abit like “Old Lady”, but isn’t very strong. I like to use this serum in the day time just before I apply my make up. It serves as a fantastic make up base and seems to even out my skin tone as well. The watery texture helps to moisturise my skin. This product is fantastic because it actually sinks into my skin immediately, and I’m not even exaggerating.

I usually hate waiting for facial creams to sink into my skin, especially in the mornings cause I’m always in a rush. I like to apply this serum on my forehead and smile lines as it states that it is made for “Anti-Ageing”.

I can’t comment much on how the “Anti-Ageing” aspect of the serum works, as I only had a sample size tube and with any face product, it normally takes at least 8 weeks to see a difference on your skin. However, I did really enjoy using this product as a make up base. I mentioned that I didn’t like the smell, but the smell doesn’t overpower the fragrance in your make up.

The highly recommended Vitacreme B12 Regenerative Cream

They have been so many raves about this product that I was almost not going to believe the hype… but I must say, it really does live up to it. Its a fantastic day and night cream. I like it because it’s so light yet so thick.

Now this cream claims to:

• Fix skin fatigue, drying, aging, dull
• Enhance skin elasticity and firming skin
• Prevention of premature fine lines and wrinkles appear
• Dodge and smooth wrinkles
• Pores
• To improve dry, deeply moisturizes
• Dilution and repair old and new scars, acne prints, signs of insect bites
• Calm skin after sun damage, burst, swelling, and peeling and other issues
• Can be used for children miliaria (prickly heat), or diaper rash
• Men use of effective relief after shaving irritation

And as you can see, it really is quite a lot to claim for a tube of cream. And although its a fabulous product, I think I can only say I only see half of the claims, which is still reasonable though, as I was only using it for a little over a month, and I only have the sample sizes.

I think it was a bit of a plus for me as well, because I am testing it in the Winter of Sydney, and it did get really dry. As a side note, I do have combination skin – more on the dry side, especially in Winter. Using this cream, I felt that it was extremely moisturising. Like the Anti-Ageing Serum, the cream sank into my skin almost immediately after applying. However, I do prefer to use this cream in the night, and the serum in the day.

I actually noticed a huge improvement in my pores as well. Prior to using this cream, I had extremely large pores, and I have noticed a huge improvement, but that could also be because I’ve paired this cream up with my Bliv Cellnique skincare products.

The texture of this cream is very thick as I pointed out earlier. It comes out as a milky pink colour and really seems to make my face a glow after applying (the “fix dull” skin claim is definitely true!)

I can see how most of the points can work, but I won’t be able to “state” them at this point.

I definitely did not notice a huge difference to “wrinkle reduction” though, but that could also be because it takes quite some time for those differences to appear. I would not recommend to only use this cream in the winter, especially if you have extremely dry skin.

I think the downfall to this regenerative cream is that because it sinks into the skin so quickly, I found that I had to continuously reapply to get continue feeling moisturised. I loved the effect for about an hour, but then my skin would feel dry again after a short period of time.

The packaging of this product is actually, like the sample, a tube. I think it would be very handy because it is about 50ml and the size of a toothpaste. The tube is also very much like a toothpaste, in the sense that you can actually squeeze the product out. I think the packaging of the Vitacreme B12 is definitely a selling point.

As much as I loved this product, I think the only reason I wouldn’t purchase it is because of its price and the fact that it isn’t easily accessible. However, Akisa from AkisaShop.com has actually started to stock these creams. They are selling for AU$45 for a tube.

BUY IT HERE

I know its a hefty price, for a cream that serves for so many purposes, I really think its a fantastic product. I’ve even heard from many other reviews that this cream has helped them get rid of their old stubborn acne scars.

Although these samples were given to me by Akisa, I am in no way being dishonest in this review. I do not receive commission, nor did I receive any money from her to do this review. You can also check out the reviews on MUA.

I hope you guys enjoyed this review, and I’ll be back real soon for more posts! If you guys have tried this cream, 0r serum, I’d love to hear what you have to say as well!

Love ya all, as always.

Here are the products I use and a little review on each one of them. I hope you guys find the video useful and helps clear up some questions on hair care. I’ll also be making more videos as I’m going to NZ on Tuesday and I don’t think I’ll be able to make any videos there…

I’m using my new camera so quality is 100000000% better haha! And I’ve finally given up on taking the easy way out and using webcams instead of cameras. I’m using my new SLR for this video… which I’m still yet to introduce.

Oh, and if you haven’t subscribed to my channel, please do so ^__^” <3

Thanks! I love you guys!!

I am so so so sorry for abandoning my blog as of late. It’s just been a huge two weeks for me, and finding time to blog has been almost impossible! So I’ve only been blogging little updates lately. Here comes a huge one :P

As the title suggests, I  received my pink contact lens today from Mukuchu!!!!!!

! I received a pair of the EOS pink ones, so I was so so so excited!!!! These are my first pair of pink contact lens! I read alot of your comments and alot of you said you wanted me to do a look with the pink lenses.

I personally do not think pink lenses are too crazy or animated.. but that’s maybe because I love doin’ up my eyes anyways! I love these pink lenses and I really do think they stand out from all the other lenses I’ve worn!

Comfort level is about the same as all the other colours! I honestly do not think the lens colour is related to the comfort of the lenses! I love EOS lenses, so these were just as great as all the others.

And I did highlight my hair, just incase you notice something a little different! LOL

The shots above were all taken in the car and used natural lighting.

I’m wearing the Shiseido Maquillage quad in BE7683 (gold shimmery colour) in the inner corners of my eyes and my favourite Maybelleine Stylish Smokes in Natural Smokes quad for my outer corner. Can’t get enough of that palette! Been wearing it almost every day since I got it!  For the blush/bronzer, I’m wearing Prestige’s mineral bronzer in Sunbaked and Etude House blush in 01.

On my lips I have NYX’s Strawberry Milk. :)

These shots are taken inside so I used flash for these photos.

I think with flash, it looks a little more crazier, but people IRL really don’t see this until you are in a super lit-up room and you’ve got lights shining on your eyes to emphasise the pink!

Mr.CG’s thought: “your pink lenses are as pink as your lips”
“but they look brown indoors”

Awesome, right?

Love them? Enter my contest to win a pair!! OR buy them from Mukuchu today! :)

Mine is the Candy Color Pink (G-208 Pink)

But along with the awesome pink lenses sent to me by Mukuchu, she also included… this pretty little thang.

A pink leopard storage thing…

what is it?

OMGGGGGGGGG??????????

Prettiest freaking contact lenses case I own!!!!

I now proudly take out this contact lenses case when I just need to use a mirror! No one knows what I’m doing! They just think I have a little coin purse or somethin’ out! And now no one’s going to stare at you and think “wtf, that girl is staring at herself in the mirror”. What a luvo!

It’s a disguise!

I loves it!

They also have a HUGE selection of more contact lense cases available!

BUY IT HERE

And because I promised this blog post is going to be an awesome one, to make up for the short posts I’ve been uploading in the past few weeks, here is a little more on food and fashion!

Food court food does not always have to be crappy. It isn’t always dirrrrrrty. Sometimes, it can be mouthwatering and delicious. How I miss eating at a food court…

I went burwood shopping today and ate Indian and Mexican food! *nom nom nommmmmmmm…

Garlic Naan

Butter chicken and mango chicken w/ indian rice.
I love Indian rice!

Taco box I think it’s called? And Mexican chips(?) They are freaking delicious!

Lastly, I wore these cute sheer polkadot stockings and that black floral dress. I’m lovin’ detailed leggings and stockings these days, especially because it’s cold!

Cannot wait to update more! :)

So here it is! <3

Swatches from the video

As some of you may know, I won a giveaway from Nicola not too long ago. She opened this new japanese make up online store and was giving away products from her store. I won 1st Runner Up prize and I was so freaking happy because I’ve never really won a giveaway before. Seriously, one chance out of like 300 people!

I got the prizes today and ofcourse, they were sent from Japan! I don’t normally do advertorials for free, hahahaha, but this is very close to an advertorial. Go visit her shop now!

See the cute hello kitty bag she put them in? So so so cute! She even gave me a free hello kitty blotting sheets. Wwwwttfff? So damn cute!

My theory is that anything cute or pretty deserves camwhoring! <3 Including these pink hello kitty blotting sheets! haha

First thing that caught my eye is the Canmake powder blush. I loves Canmake and plus, it was baby pink and bling bling!

 See the two little diamonte/crystals on there? Ah, my loves.

Then, ofcourse the Maquillage eyeshadow palette. I don’t even own any items from this brand, can you believe it? How asian aren’t I! :(

*screams with excitement. Do you SEEEEEE THAT???? It’s so freaking prettty!!!! There’s a “beach/sea” feeling to it. The colours are pastel and so wearable. I love this, love it. Did I mention I love it? Will be doing a look on this soon! <3

 I just love the seashell and starfish detailing on the palettes… I don’t even want to use it :(

Okay, next item is my favourite out of them all. And trust me, it wasn’t easy to choose a “favourite”, but this is definitely…… definitely… my favourite. I squealed when I opened the lid of this lipstick. No joke. If I knew just how excited I would be, I would have video-cammed it. I was crazy excited.

 
Okay, you’re seeing nothing exciting yet……….. ;)

Shade 34. The fine glitters literally look like crystals on your lipstick. You don’t even want to touch it to ruin it. At least I didn’t. Damn, if I didn’t get this thing, I don’t think I would have found the love of my life (sorry honey!) hahah!!

Seriously girls, GET THIS and give yourself a chance to release your inner LOVE for lipsticks and bling!

  Swatches. I  used this thing for you guys!!!!

 Last, but not least! Is this Kose Visee Jewel Crush Eyeliner. This baby is freaking smudgeproof, I swear! After I swatched it, I rubbed it off my hand a minute later and it wouldn’t budge! Crazy, not? Shade is BK001.

 It looks more of a grey. Not sure what BK001 is meant to be, but usually BK001 is black in japanese cosmetics. This must be a grey! Nonetheless, its very very pretty! It has fine shimmers in it, comes out super shiny and is super easy to use!!! <3 

That’s all I got. I had such a fun time taking photos of these and editting them. I haven’t been so excited about a package for so long! Actually……. nah, I’m excited about every package.. but this is definitely one of my favourite packages of the month!!

I have so many little adverts and posts to do, but I popped this to the top of my list and did it straight away! :P

Go visit her shop and support her girls! It is one aaamazing place!! No joke!

This is what they looked like in the pictures and I’ve also made a mini review on the lashes in a video.

I tried to summarise everthing I could in this video as much as possible. I just figured it’d be better for me to make a video on it, rather than blog about it, as it’d probably take forever to blog about and take photos of.

So here it is, you can see all the eyelashes on the camera there and I make a review on each and every one of them. Please note that I haven’t actually worn any of them yet, so this is only an “initial” review of the eyelashes.

Next video here is actually the next day, I wore the #9 eyelashes today, and I absolutely adore them. After the whole day of wearing them., I do feel as if they were abit stiff and hurt my eyelid slightly, but I’m sure that the longer you wear them, the more flexible they will be.

For $11~, I don’t expect 60 pairs of eyelashes to be any better quality! I’m glad I got them, and would definitely be repurchasing – if needed.

I also took photos of me wearing the #9 eyelashes…. no, not just photos… I camwhored… hard. LOLOL!! Don’t scroll down… if you hate camwhorers* if that’s even a word :P

I’m not even joking

Alright, thats all, I shrank the photos so it doesn’t seem as “ooompf” in your face. HAHAHAHAAH!!! Okay, whatever, more of me later :P

I’m off to bed. Goodnight loves!

Here’s a video of the haul if you want to see the swatches.

First I bought two Revlon Colorburst lipsticks. Shades Soft Nude and Carnation. They are gorgeous colours and both caught my eye at first sight. I didn’t even have to consider which shades to purchase, these two were the only two I truly wanted.

I think the swatch on the lipstick lid is very true to colour. From below, you can see the colours of the swatches compared to the colour on the lids. It is very similar – especially in comparison to most drugstore lipstick swatches on their casing. It’s usually horrible.

Max Factor False Lash Effect. I accidently bought the brown/black for this and because my eyelashes are naturally pure black, its a little weird. I kind of do like this mascara though (first impression, only tried it for one day) so I think I’m going to keep testing it out and if it’s good, I’ll go back and get the black.

Bourjois Clubbing Liquid Eyeliner in Absolute Black. Tested it out in the video and it doesn’t seem as “dark” as my favourite Prestige liquid eyeliner. Also tested the “smuding” resistance that it claims and it seemed to fail in comparison to my Prestige eyeliner. Defintely not loving this as much as my Prestige one, but it is sooo thin that its incredibly easy to draw the finest lines. I think I might grow to love using this!

Drawing lines with this eyeliner is crazy addictive! :D

That’s about it for now. I’ve been making videos almost everyday this week so I’m really achieving what was mentioned in my New Years Resolution for this year. Blog more and more videos!! :D

I really hope I keep up with this, but most importantly, I hope you guys keep up with me!

I also want to take the moment to say “Thanks” to all of my subscribers and followers on this blog. You guys give me the motivation to continue on blogging, even if it’s just over something so little!

I reached #2 most viewed gurus in Australia on Youtube yesterday and it was definitely an unforgettable moment. <3 <3

I love you guys for your support! Muah! XOXO.

So here’s love package she sent me. For those who don’t know or remember who Cheesie is, I talked about her when she came from to Sydney for a holiday. She’s a Malaysian blogger :)

This is the package she got meee ^__^”

She knows I love my Dolly Wink and so does she! haha! So she sent me the brown pencil eyeliner. I haven’t tried this one yet, so I haven’t got a review on it..

I love these Hello Kitty cutlery! Sooo freaking cute!!!! But I don’t think I’ll ever use them. Probably leave it for my future daughter. HAHAHA!!

My favourite favourite things she got me is the Laura Mercier Powder Foundation <3

I’ve used this for two days in a row and it is unbelievable how much I’m loving this. Cheesie had already told me how great it was prior to sending it to me, but I never really fell for any products like I have for this one. This powder foundation really have the “WOW” the first time I used it. I thought maybe it was just a “good face day” but then I used it again the next day and it was absolutely flawless once again!

I wore my Etude House BB Cream underneath (which doesn’t have crazy heavy coverage, quite light coverage as a matter of fact) and then I sweeped the Laura Mercier powder foundation on top with a powder brush (brush for less coverage, sponge for more) and woah-la!!! my face… it was… absolutely flawless. Did I say FLAWLESS???

I’ve NEVER EVER seen my face this flawless before and I’m not even joking. I didn’t even use a primer prior to the BB Cream!!

So I’m definitely LOVING this product and I’m going to give it a rating of 5/5.

The pack does come with two sponges, but I’m not planning to use either with the powder foundation because I’m assuming it’s going to give me a waaay too heavy application as sweeping this product with a brush is already giving me an absolute flawless effect.

I’m not too sure that I’m going to be using this product too much though, even though I do love it! I don’t think I can stand being so perfect every day! LOL! Having a flawless face makes me feel as if I’ve thrown too much on my face even though this powder is very light-weight!

My shade is Medium, I got it tested at the Laura Mercier counter and for reference, I’m an NC20-25.

The last thing she got me is the Laura Mercier Foundation Stick in Medium also. I can’t say much about this foundation because I’m not a big fan of foundation sticks to begin with. I don’t usually wear anything other than liquid foundations and wearing this foundation stick was just very strange. I felt like I was just putting concealer on my face! The texture was very creamy and it just glided onto my face easily. The coverage was medium. Although the application was extremely “convenient”, in my opinion I find that its quite dirty to use a foundation stick directly onto your face, so I chose to use a foundation brush to apply this foundation – which made the application less convenient and hence I would rather use a liquid foundation :P

Hope you guys liked this review on the products Cheesie got for me and if you’ve tried any of the products I mentioned, let me know what you thought of it? :)

Here is the video on the hair extensions, where I got it, what I got in the package, etc.

Perfect purple and blinged up packaging! Loves! This company sure knows what a girl wants, what a girl needs *hums along ;)

I purchased these two. One is a full weft for half a head (mainly for girls who just need lengthing) and the other one is a full head of clip extensions – consisting of 8 two-clip wefts and 4 three-clip wefts! :)
Both are the same length, though it may not look it in the photo, haha! They are 50-55cm..

BUY IT HERE

Note: Both hair extensions are made of synthetic hair but can handle heat to 140 degrees.

This is the single-weft-half-head hair extension. Very pretty curls.

These are the two-clip wefts. Very similar in texture and colour. Loves both! *inserts a zillion hearts.

And for the tutorial on how to place clip-on hair extensions, incase you already have your own clip-on extensions and duno how to put them on! :D This is just how I do it, I’m not a professional and do not have a zillion years experience like some gurus on youtube, but I thought I’d share how I transform my short hair to long.

I put less clips on when I was taking the photos (cause I was excited to try them on and take photos) so you can still see some of my shorter hairs in these photos, but if you follow my tutorial, you should be able to cover all the short pieces of hair.

This is where I only put on the “single-weft” clip! Do not recommend girls with short hair to just throw on the 1 single-weft clip!

I think I look taller in long hair LOLOLOL!

I put in a few more clips here but its still not complete! I was way too excited! I promise to post a picture of a full-head of hair extensions next time!

By the way, to those who don’t follow me on twitter, I did lighten my hair a little, it’s more of a reddish-medium brown now :)

I lightened my hair mainly because everyone was bugging me to go back to blonde! hahahaha!!! Maybe one day soooooon… or not…….

If I had my curling iron and curled my own hair, the effect would definitely be alot better, but since I didn’t have my curling iron with me, it doesn’t look at great. Please bare with me. I will do a better job at it next time ^__^”

Scandal is a korean cosmetic brand not very well known in comparison to Etude House and Laneige. But I don’t believe the quality of their products differ just because of the popularity.

I don’t own many Scandal products, but there is a store in Campsie which stocks a lot of their skincare and cosmetic line. The first BB cream I ever owned was also from their line, and although  it was a fabulous product, the shade was a tad too grey in my opinion – though it may suit others.

Recently, I came across two other products which instantaneously caught my eye. And this is their Crystal Soul Blushers. The packaging is sleek, very elegant and features a gorgeous chandelier imprint. From a choice of 6 shades, I struggled to choose 2. These were only AU$20 each! - although it does say $18 on the website, wtf, but anyway, moving on to show you guys how amazing the colours are!

IMG_3636

The two shades I chose are 4. Lovely Pink Brown and 2. Pink and Peach. Surprise surprise, they are exactly as the description saids.

4. Lovely Pink Brown
Great as a highlight colour when applied lightly or a warm summer blush when applied heavily.

4. Pink and Peach
Great as a blush applied to the apples of the cheeks.

I love the two blush shades equally and could not choose between one or the other. Although both are very shimmery, I think it provides the base of your foundation with a bit of a glow and actually lightens up your face without the over-glitter-effect.

You can see from the below comparison that one is a little more pink, and the other a little more peachy.

Overall, I think these blushes are well worth purchasing! And if you guys wanted to purchase it, it’s available at Charmzone, inside the Campsie shopping centre. I’m not too sure where else it is available, but I believe you may also purchase them online at their website.
