A Saturday Post

Ok, so maybe that's not a very interesting title for a post. Oh well, just ranting here about what I did today. I realise i don't 'talk' much in my blog anymore, it's always with pictures nowadays.

My morning started out at 9am, when me and the bf went for breakfast at a shop nearby. Ate a 'char siew pau' while watching the replay of the Spain and Chile match. Only managed to catch Spain's first goal.

After breakfast we went back home to chill out for a while. I played 'Flower' on the PS3. It's this interesting game where you are the wind and you're blowing flower petals around. Your mission is to blow the wind close to other flowers and gather more and more petals. Sometimes after blowing around a cluster of flowers you will cause effects like bring colour to previously dull fields or starting windmills. It's quite fun. Had to stop my game when the bf's friend came over and they started playing Red Dead Redemption. It's sort of like a cowboy kind of GTA (Grand Theft Auto). Sorry if you don't know what I've been talking about so far, please Google. (Reminds me of a scene in Hot Tub Time Machine, funny show btw, where Google was named Lougle instead).

Noon came along and I went out with friends for lunch and then a movie at Tropicana City Mall. It proved to be a free-gifts day there. We had lunch at Otak-Otak Place and after we paid for the meal they gave us free coffee sachets. A brand called Cafe Up, which is coffee with Tongkat Ali (I just realised why it's named Up!), Gano? and Ginseng Extract. Hmmm...wonder what it would taste like. After lunch, we had a spot of shopping......well, I did a spot of shopping. We then went to catch our movie. When collecting the tickets, we were given Loreal Hair Mask! Another free gift! Watched Sex And The City 2. I thought the storyline was kinda draggy. Too much unnecessary stuff. It was still as vulgar and hilarious, though I think I prefer the first movie.

It was back to home after the movie. Surf net a lil and then had my dinner. Made my own tortilla pizza. I watched 'Enchanted' again while eating my dinner. Enchanted is one of the movies that really turned out better than expected. Really enjoyed the movie when I first watched it few years back. My favourite scene was when Giselle and Robert was at Central Park and Giselle started singing That's How You Know. Loved just how Giselle started the whole musical thing with everyone in the park.

So now that the movie's over, I'm here blogging about my day. I hear shouts of 'Gooooallll!!' from football fans below. Their watching the Uruguay and Korea match and the score is 1-1 now.

So I'll leave you all with the clip from Enchanted. Enjoy!

Over the weekend i visited Tropicana City Mall, PJ. For those who didn't know, it opened it's doors to all on the 18th Dec. Though many shops like Carrefour, GSC, Borders, etc. are not opened yet, quite a few other shops have started operations.

A somewhat tacky Christmas tree. Ok laaaa...for a mall that just opened.

A row of shops

I dropped by a shop called Body Bar which sells all natural skincare products which are certified organic. That's where i got my skincare products. The prices are considered affordable for premium products.

Christmas came early

*Note that this is NOT a paid advertorial

I went over to Tropicana City Mall today (yes, it's opened) and visited a shop called Body Bar (will blog about the shop in my next post). The products in the shop are from Australia and New Zealand. I got myself a Mukti starter pack (for moisturizing my face) and a rejuvenating eye balm. Mukti is derived from Sanskrit and it means freedom and liberation. This brand is sold exclusively in Body Bar only.

Starter pack + eye balm

What's great about this shop is that it has naturally organic skincare products. The items are all certified organic unlike many other products out there who just claim they are 'organic'.

Labels

It's has Organic Certification by OFC, which guarantees that the products has no synthetic chemicals, produced in a responsible ecological and harmonius ways. It's also cruelty free and assures that no animal has been harmed nor were used for testing. And lastly, it has Australian Made status which signifies that all the manufaturing and production takes place in Australia.

Rejuvenating eye balm

I've been looking for a suitable eye cream for a while now. So i decided to get this Mukti rejuvenating eye balm. It promotes cell regeneration, hydration and protection for the eye area.

Foaming cleanser + Facial cream + Mist toner

First off, the foaming cleanser removes dirt, makeup and other impurities on your skin. The mist toner is used after cleansing for extra hydration and to balance the skin's pH. Lastly, the cream is required to re-hydrate and deeply nourish the skin. I bought this pack because it's suitable for my skin and there are other products for different skin types. Each of the items can be bought separately, but i chose to buy the whole pack as it's more value for money and most of all ,works well with one another.

I think this product is pretty good and most importantly it's certified organic. It will definitely be good for me as my skin is pretty sensitive. So do drop by Body Bar at Tropicana City Mall, PJ to check out their range of products.
