[Beauty Review] F Cup Rich Cookie in Strawberry Flavour

Originated from Japan, F Cup Cookie becomes the best-selling slimming and breast enhancement product in Japan, Taiwan and Singapore. In Japan particularly, over 4.5 million boxes were sold. What's more, it is highly recommended by celebrities in various Taiwanese TV shows such as "Nu Ren Wo Zui Da", "Wo De Mei Ran Ji" and UK BBC Radio.

F Cup Cookie is a beauty supplement that simultaneously delivers various benefits, including slimming and breast enhancing. It not only provides you with 8 essential amino acids, but also boosts the growth of mammary gland. Being low-calorie and appetite-satisfying, it helps maintain healthy and balanced diet. The new F Cup Rich cookies made with 2x more Peuraria Mirifica than the ordinary F Cup cookies, giving you double the breast enhancement power!

Benefits derived from Peuraria Minifica:

• Breast enlargement - It enables plump and resilient breasts by accelerating blood circulation and stimulating the growth of mammary gland.
• Skin enhancement - Like estrogen naturally produced in human body, it maintains velvety smooth skin.
• Anti-age - It leaves skin radiant and elastic as it vitalizes skin cell and promotes better protein synthesis.

Nutrition information and ingredients were printed on the box for your reference. You must also take note of the packaging where you only buy with the Gold Label Sticker to avoid imitations.

There are 15 sticks per box and are in strawberry flavours. As you can see, there are some dried berries in the cookie which make it taste even better. Consume 1 piece of cookie a day with plenty of water.

I've heard of this F Cup cookie since long ago but I was hesitated to try it out due to its price and rumours of the side effects caused by this supplement (eg. hormone imbalance and acne breakouts). However, I've decided to accept the challenge because it's well recognized in overseas and there are many successful testimonials too. After one month of consumption, I'm so sad to say that I did not feel or see any improvement of my breasts. As stated, every individual reacts differently to supplements and it is advisable to consume for at least more than 2 months to see results. Besides, it does not cause any allergy, irritation or even acne breakouts like what people claimed to be. I've attached some frequently asked questions below for your reference.

Q&A:
1. How soon can I get the results?
Every individual reacts differently to supplements. Some may see immediate results in 3 weeks while others may take longer.

2. Do I have to continue taking for long period? How to maintain the perfect body figure?
It is not a dependent medication, once you have achieved the body figure, it is not necessary to continue F Cup cookies. But it is advisable to consume for at least more than 2 months.

3. Does F Cup cookies have any side effects?
No, unless taking incorrectly. Japan's Ministry of Health and KKM has approved and proven the ingredients as a Non-hazardous Health Food.

4. Any people are not suitable to take the product?
People who are having allergy to any ingredients of the products, cancer patients of any form, pregnant woman, breast feeding women, those who have high blood pressure and heart disease.

5. Where can I purchase F Cup Rich Cookie?
F Cup Rich Cookie is now available at Tokyoninki (product link) and various Sasa outlets. Tokyoninki is having promotion currently where you can purchase 2 boxes for only RM148 with free bra organizer.

[Beauty Review] Ginvera Marvel White Skincare

Here's the full review of Ginvera Marvel White Skincare range as I've promised in previous blog post (here). Post its launch in 2002, Ginvera Green Tea Skincare range has been well accepted by the consumers due to its efficacy and unique product offerings especially Zero Blackheads Marvel Gel which has been proven to be effective with its numerous consumer challenges, it has now revamped to Ginvera Marvel White series with the added benefits of Shiso to offer not only fair but also blemish free skin.

The 3 main ingredients in Ginvera Marvel White which help to achieve fair and flawless skin:

• Green Tea Extract - offers excellent antioxidant properties that help in fighting free radicals, shield the skin from UVB radiation and deliver soothing relief for sensitive and irritated skin, hence resulting in a fairer and more radiant skin tone.
• Swiss Cress Sprout & Soy Bean Extract - the exceptional whitening benefits help to lighten dark spots and pigmentations, reduce effects of daytime stressors, brighten and even out skin tone, hence Marvel Gel delivers visible whitening results while keeping the skin perfectly moisturized.
• Japanese Shiso Extract - A natural active ingredient with excellent anti-inflmmatory benefits that offers soothing relief from redness and itchiness, and helps to prevent formation of blackheads, whiteheads and pimples by inhibiting the growth of bacteria. 

Step 1: Exfoliate
Being the star product of this skincare range, Ginvera Marvel White Zero Blackheads Marvel Gel (RM25.90 @ 40g) helps to gently yet effectively get rid of blackheads without pain. Its effectiveness has been recognized by many consumers as well as bloggers.

Unlike other ordinary facial scrub, Marvel Gel can be used daily by both female and male, guaranteed results in 1 application. My favourite face scrub currently because it does remove dead skin cells (as shown in the picture above) effectively and my skin feel so smooth afterwards! Just squeeze and ample amount and apply onto dry face with dry fingers focusing on the T-zone area, gently massage until small flakes appear then rinse off with water/facial cleanser.

Step 2: Cleanse
I'm using this Ginvera Marvel White Complete Cleansing Foam (RM15.90 for 100g) for months even before I attended the event and bring this whole series back for review. I love how it foams up very easily and its creamy lather gently and thoroughly cleanses away trapped impurities and excess oil that can clog pores and lead to blackheads and breakouts. It does brighten my skin after using it however, I do feel very slightly (!) dryness too.

Step 3: Clarify
Tone, refine and purify with this Ginvera Marvel White Refining Toner (RM18.90 @ 150ml) in just 1 spray! Personally I love this spraying bottle because it's so convenient (perfect for lazy people like me :P) and it does refines and tightens pores, nourishes and softens skin. It also brightens and evens skin tone for an instant naturally flawless and luminous fair complexion.

Hold the bottle approximately 20cm from your face, close eyes, spray evenly on your face and gently tab for full absorption. It's easily absorbed into the skin however I can feel stickiness upon application.

Step 4: Moisture
The final step with Ginvera Marvel White Whitening Face Lotion (Rm25.90 @ 50ml) to achieve fair and flawless skin! It claimed to be whiten and rejuvenate skin regimen with effective natural whitening active ingredients. It's also rich in natural anti-inflammatory ingredients that relieve and soothe skin, keeps skin blemish-free with a healthy radiant glow.

Followed by Marvel Gel, it's my favourite product after all due to its non-sticky and non-greasy formula, it absorbed quickly into my skin and leaving my skin comfortably moisturized all day long!

One of the most affordable skincare range I've come across and it works perfectly fine on my skin too. I've been using Ginvera products since young because the formula is very mild and gentle on my skin (I'm combination skin type). It does not cause any irritation or breakouts to me, hence I've repurchased their products for few times already especially the Marvel Gel, my life savior for blackheads and whiteheads!

Ginvera Marvel White Skincare series is now available at various distribution outlets like Watsons, Guardian, Caring, Aeon, Tesco, The Store, Parkson, Chinese medical halls and other leading pharmacies.

[Gadget Review] Carry Small, Capture All with Samsung NX Mini

I always have great passion towards photography but I'm just too poor to take up photography lessons or invest in a DSLR currently, so I will just browse through the camera website and magazines to update myself with the latest information or various photography tips. Thanks goodness, now I've found a cheaper alternative rather than DSLR and easier to use too, the Samsung NX Mini! It's the slimmest and lightest interchangeable-lens camera to-date developed by Samsung, weighing 158g (body only) and sporting an ultra slim (22.5mm) design, which enable the NX mini can easily slip into almost any pocket or bag yet looking stylish.

Unboxing NX Mini:

• Camera
• NX-M 9mm F3.5 ED Lens
• Rechargeable Battery
• 16GB Micro SD-Card
• Hand Strap
• Charger & USB Cable
• Warranty
• Quick Reference Guide
• Quick Start Guide
• Software CD-ROM
• Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5

As I've mentioned, it's an interchangeable-lens camera and Samsung has actually introduced two NX mini lenses (NX-M) which are optimised for use with the NX mini body, providing a variety of options to meet individual shooting preferences: NX-M 9mm F3.5 ED lens and NX-M 9-27mm F3.5-5.6 ED OIS lens. Read my previous review focuses on its interchangeable lenses here.

Its slim appearance is definitely one of its competitive advantage but what makes it even better is the 75.2mm (3.0-inch) flip-up and touch display that rotates 180-degrees, perfect for selfie! I gotta admit it's also one of my top criteria when buying camera :P

Samsung NX mini just bring selfie to the next level with three selfie mood: normal, smile shot and wink shot. With the normal mode, you will have to press the shutter to capture or activate a 3-seconds timer; smile shot will detect your wide smile and capture automatically, which same goes to the wink shot that will capture automatically when it detects a wink too. I always fail at wink shot due to my typical Asian small eyes. T_T

Look at our cheesy pose featuring Angeline and you will know how much we enjoyed selfie with the NX mini!

Now let's talk about my favourite feature of all in the NX mini, Tag & Go! It features advanced WiFi and NFC integration that makes it seamless to share images with NFC-enabled devices, such as smartphones or tablets, simply by touching the two together.

• Mobile Link: Select and transfer multiple images to the paired mobile devices.
• Remote ViewFinder: Control the NX mini via a smartphone, perfect for a large group picture and long exposure shots.
• Group Share: Send images to up to four devices at the same time, eliminating the time-consuming and repetitive process of sending pictures to multiple friends.
• Baby Monitor: When noise is detected, the paired smartphone is activated via an app, allowing parents to see if they need to attend to their child.

No worries if you do not own a Samsung smartphone because it's compatible with iPhone and other non-Android devices too. To transfer images, you will first need to download Samsung SMART CAMERA App from Google Play Store or App Store, connect your mobile devices to the NX mini via WiFi and there you go!

I just can't stop admiring how tiny this NX mini could be and guess what, it's even smaller than my Samsung Galaxy S5, which could fit into my pocket perfectly and my smartphone doesn't.

Similar to what other cameras offered, the NX mini also has various 'Smart' mode such as beauty face, landscape, food, waterfall, rich tones, fireworks and night etc. Its impressively fast 6fps continuous shot mode allows you to take continuous shots, so every detail can be captured and no moments are missed. The fast 1/16000 second shutter speed freezes fast moving scenes, allowing for the dramatic capture of motion in crisp detail, without blurring, especially when people love to take jump shot nowadays. If you're wondering, the NX mini has 20.5MP BSI CMOS sensor producing high quality and vivid colour pictures.

'Smart - Food'

'Smart - Best Face'

'Smart - Panaroma'

'Smart - Landscape'

'Aperture Priority and Manual'

The NX mini features a solid premium metal body with a luxurious leatherette finish, making the camera the natural choice for style-conscious shooters looking to make a statement. After months playing with the NX mini, it's not only a gadget to me but also an accessory to complete my #ootd, don't you agree? :) You can choose from the five available colours (white, pink, mint green, brown and black) which best suits your style and add some 'colour' to your life.

From the perspective of a blogger, Samsung NX mini can be a good investment due to its slim appearance and good quality of pictures produced especially for beginners. When you're out to attend event, it's very common to take a selfie with the other blogger friends and that's how you get closer with them. By then you will see many of them are also holding a camera with 180-degrees flip-up screen and believe me, it does help to take better (slimmer) selfie. :P

Besides, WiFi and NFC integration could be an important factor where you can upload pictures straight from your camera to various social media like Facebook and Instagram and some blog campaigns would require live posting too. By the way, if you're wondering, my NX mini doesn't turn yellowish (but my hand strap does) despite heavy usage for these four months and dirt can be easily wipe using tissue.

On the other hand, things that I dislike about the NX mini would be its basic 9mm pancake lens which is not zoomable and does not contain optical image stabilization. I rely heavily on zoom lens as a viewfinder and so I hesitated to bring along my NX mini to events at the first place. Based on my personal experience, I would recommend you to purchase the zoom lens as well especially for concerts and events where you can't go up close and capture their faces.

After my four months experience of using this NX mini, I realize that the pictures taken with NX mini seems to be a bit darker based on my personal preference and therefore I would use 'Aperture Priority' or 'Manual' mode most of the time. No worries that this camera also comes with build-in flash and fill-in flash for night shots. Last but not least, it doesn't come with a lens cap so you will have to be extra careful especially when putting it inside your bag unless you have a pouch for it.

Samsung NX mini comes in 5 colours: white, pink, mint green, brown and black. It retails at RM1,399 only (with 9mm F3.5 lens) and is available at various Samsung stores.

MTV World Stage 2014 with Sailor Jerry

Thanks to Sailor Jerry, I had a great party night at MTV World Stage 2014 last Saturday alongside with Thaitanium, Boys Republic, Yuna and B.O.B while having my Sailor Jerry Spiced at the VIP tent. Sailor Jerry is making its debut in Malaysia via MTV World Stage hence we're the very first few who get to try it out! Sailor Jerry Spiced is actually a Caribbean Rum blended with 100% natural spices and flavours inspired by the American tattoo legend Norman "Sailor Jerry" Collins.

The exclusive Sailor Jerry tent in the VIP zone full of activities like photobooth, photo printing services and
airbrush tattoo.

You may stand a chance to win limited edition merchandise with various challenges.

Free flows of crafted beverages by Sailor Jerry! I've tried their cocktail mixed with lemon juice, oolong tea and sprite, one really refreshing drink :)

Finally, the real party of the night kick start with Thai-American hip hop group, Thaitanium!

The K-Pop trend is growing swiftly here in Malaysia and we're so lucky to have Boys Republic here, the only Korean artist of the night. Their good-looking appearance alone just made the fangirls' heart melts awww.

Followed by Yuna, our Malaysian singer and songwriter! She has really large fandom here as most of the people purposely came here to see her and can sing along with her.

*Drumrolls* and here comes the main appearance of the day, B.O.B! His energetic performance and close interaction with fans just made the crowd went crazy and unwilling to leave the place even after the concert has ended.

Such an enjoyable night and definitely the best way to release stress with my girls! Time to get back to study while trying out the Sailor Jerry Spiced (yes, I have one whole bottle with me at home! :P). Cheerios!
