The Balm & Prestige Cosmetics

Hoho..Xmas is coming to town in a month's time, marking the end of the year! Wow, this year time flies so fast! I wonder what I've been doing throughout the year :P To mark the end of the year's celebration, I would like to share some information especially for the beauty junkie like me who prefer cheap, pigmented, different, unique casings and works like miracle!

I present to you The Balm and Prestige Skin Loving Minerals, now available in Malaysia! I've mentioned about Prestige previously in one of my post here. Prestige is one of the leading mineral makeup lines company which are popular around UK and USA. For those who are not sure, mineral makeup are suitable for those who have sensitive skins or acne-prone skins.

The ingredients of these mineral cosmetics which are mostly natural and do not contain chemical preservatives help to make your skin beautiful without any danger. Mineral cosmetics line ranges from foundation, eye shadows, blushers and also lipsticks - just like any normal makeup lines are. Most of them are in loose powder form as there are no chemical used to bind the powder. You can control the coverage of your makeup according to your preferences - from sheer to medium.

The Balm in the other hand is another brand of cosmetic line which originated from the USA. I've been seeing this brand at various websites but never had the opportunity to buy them. The outlook of the products very much resemble Benefit but at half its price! The name used for their products are (ahem!) yummy-licious too, such as Get Down Boy as reviewed by So Loverly. Most of their products seems to be available in Malaysia.

Take another wife, and you'll be awarded!

Currently having my final exam for this semester thus a longer hiatus from talking about beauty reviews. However, before any of you thinking that I've abandon this blog (touchwood!), I would like to share a relatively interesting story that I read on The Star Online a few minutes ago. It was updated at 4.02 pm at the time I last read the news.

What makes it interesting to be shared is due to the content of the news,

Awards for reps who take single mums as 2nd wives!

This suggestion was made in Kelantan by the Kelantan Women, Family and Health committee chairman Wan Ubaidah Omar suggested that .."awards be given to assemblymen for marrying single mothers should they decide to take another wife."

What's your say? Is it advisable to give awards to these men for doing such a good "deed"? Or is it just a trick they play for themselves to be able to get another wife by stating to the first wife "Honey, if I marry another one, I can get an award from the state!Aren't you proud of me?" Or maybe it could really be as what they thought it will be?

Tulang Rusuk, Lelaki & Wanita

WANITA : Siapa yang paling kamu cintai di dunia ini?
LELAKI : Kamu!!!
WANITA : Menurut kamu, saya ini siapa?
LELAKI : (Berfikir sejenak, lalu menatap WANITA dengan pasti).

Kamu, tulang rusukku!

Kerana Allah melihat bahawa Adam kesepian. Saat Adam sedang lena
tidur, Allah mengambil rusuk Adam dan menciptakan Hawa. Semua LELAKI
mencari tulang rusuknya yang hilang dan saat menemukan wanita
untuknya, tidak lagi merasakan sakit di hatinya...

Setelah berkahwin, pasangan itu mengalami masa yang indah dan manis
untuk sementara. Setelah itu, pasangan muda ini mulai tenggelam dalam
kesibukan masing-masing dan kelelahan hidup yang ada. Hidup mereka
menjadi membosankan.

Kenyataan hidup yang kejam membuat mereka mulai menyisihkan impian
dan cinta satu sama lain. Mereka mulai bertengkar dan pertengkaran itu
mulai menjadi semakin panas. Pada suatu hari pada akhir sebuah
pertengkaran WANITA lari keluar rumah.

Saat tiba di seberang jalan, dia berteriak "Kamu tidak cintakan saya
lagi!!!". LELAKI sangat membenci ketidakdewasaan WANITA dan secara
spontan juga berteriak "Saya menyesali perkahwinan ini! Kamu ternyata
bukan tulang rusukku!!!"

Tiba-tiba WANITA terdiam, dan berdiri kaku untuk beberapa saat. LELAKI
menyesali akan apa yang sudah dia lafazkan, tetapi seperti air yang
telah tertumpah tidak mungkin untuk diceduk kembali. Dengan berlinang
air mata, WANITA kembali ke rumah dan mengambil barang-barangnya,
bertekad untuk berpisah.

"Kalau saya bukan tulang rusukmu, biarkan saya pergi. Biarkan kita
berpisah dan mencari pasangan sejati masing-masing" .

Lima tahun berlalu. LELAKI masih belum lagi berkahwin, tetapi berusaha
mencari khabar akan kehidupan WANITA. WANITA pernah ke luar negeri
tetapi sudah kembali. Dia pernah berkahwin dengan seorang asing dan
bercerai. LELAKI agak kecewa bila mengetahui WANITA tidak menunggu,
sepertinya.

Dan di tengah malam yang sunyi, dia meminum kopinya dan merasakan
sakit di hatinya. Tetapi LELAKI tidak sanggup mengakui bahawa dia
merindukan WANITA.

Suatu hari, mereka akhirnya bertemu kembali. Di airport, tempat di
mana banyak terjadi pertemuan dan perpisahan, mereka dipisahkan hanya
oleh sebuah dinding pembatas.

LELAKI : Apa khabar?
WANITA : Baik... kamu sudah menemui tulang rusukmu yang hilang?
LELAKI : Belum.
WANITA : Saya akan terbang ke New York dengan penerbangan berikut.
Saya akan kembali 2 minggu lagi. Telefon saya kalau kamu berkesempatan.

Kamu tahu nombor telepon saya kan ? Tidak ada yang berubah.

WANITA tersenyum manis, berlalu di hujung lafaz "Selamat tinggal..."

Satu minggu kemudian, LELAKI menerima khabar WANITA adalah salah
seorang korban Menara WTC. Malam itu, sekali lagi, LELAKI meneguk
kopinya dan kembali merasakan sakit dihatinya. Akhirnya dia sedar
bahwa sakit itu adalah kerana WANITA, tulang rusuknya sendiri yang
telah dengan bodohnya dia patahkan.

Kita menempiaskan 99% kemarahan walau kepada orang yang paling kita
cintai. Dan akibatnya adalah penyesalan. Seringkali penyesalan itu
datang di kemudiannya, akibatnya setelah kita menyedari kesalahan
kita, semua sudah terlambat... .

Kerana itu, jagalah dan sayangilah orang yang dicintai dengan sepenuh
hati... Sebelum mengucapkan sesuatu berfikirlah dahulu, apakah kata
kata yang kamu ucapkan akan menyakiti orang yang dicintai? Kira
merasakan akan menyakitinya, sebaiknya jangan pernah dilafazkan.
Kerana semakin besar risiko untuk kehilangan orang yang dicintai.

Jadi berfikirlah, apakah kata-kata yang akan dilafazkan sebanding
dengan akibat yang akan diterima??


"Allah sayang orang muda yang berbuat amal
Allah benci orang tua yang berbuat maksiat"
Waallahu aalam.

Prestige Skin Loving Minerals in Malaysia!

Went for a karaoke session with fellow friends last Thursday night at Jusco Bukit Tinggi Klang. But before we went to the karaoke place, I made a stop at their SASA outlet. Guess what I found?

Prestige Skin Loving Minerals Cosmetic line!!

I did not know for sure that we have them here before. Are they new in Malaysia?Can someone help me clarify this? Because I know that this product line is sold at UK, USA and Australia. There's no reason for us to try these products through sprees and asking friends for purchasing now, do we? XD

Anyhow, the products displayed were rather limited. I'm sure it will add up through time (but don't take my words for this!Just some assumption). I did not see the prices either because was in a jiffy! But the eyeshadows were pretty and silky smooth, while the black eye liners were intense black! Definitely going to check them out again soon!!
