京阪行美妝戰利品 | Osaka & Kyoto: Beauty Shopping and Souvenirs

I just returned from mu 11-Days Kansai (Kyoto and Osaka), Japan trip.

The composing of this article is more efficient than I thought as I am struggling to fall back to night owl routine and wake up hours earlier than I usually do.

Sightseeing's been fun but shopping was even more exciting. So many I've seen and so little I can carry, THESE are the most interesting things I spotted, mostly can only be found in Japan officially.

To keep this short, let's start counting!

Empties & Hit Pans

Long time no blog. And the tired mom Jacq's (her blog) about to kill me for this.
So I'm filling in a list of empties and hit pan makeup products I haven't talked about before (as I remember).
Photos taken by iPhone in the middle of the night coz I'm too lazy to reach for my camera nor wake up early to do the shots in daylight.

Makeup Haul | after a joyful lunch date

I was hanging around in the mall after a joyful lunch date back in December 2014, and spotted a special discount in Watsons.

Buy a makeup product to get Revlon lip crayons at $50 something! So I went nuts and purchased the above...

What my Mom got me from Osaka | 大阪帶回戰利品

My mom just came back from Osaka (yes, she visited there after my bro did earlier this year), and brought me back the list of makeup and skincare products I asked for! 

Can't comment the cosmetics yet, I need to test them out first. Will do separate post or swatch or whatever kind of description about them here or on my Instagram. 

(不斷更新)SOGO 21周年感謝周年慶各牌優惠集中文

I've been collecting information about Sogo Thankful Week. Below are the links, with only the brands I'm interested in. I got them from Brand's official facebook :P Enjoy!

Lipstick Haul | Burberry and Lancome

A day in September, just a day before Jacq gave birth to her lovely baby Roma (Read her story here), we went on a shopping trip in Langham Place, Mongkok. And this is what I got on that single day. Crazy ah?

Makeup List: To buy or not to buy | 買好唔買好化妝品清單

I am always attracted to too many newly released makeup products, so why not write a post listing them all out before decision! Let's start!

BOBBI BROWN Skin Weightless Powder Foundation (Compact HK$400, Case HK$100)
BOBBI BROWN 絲柔透薄粉餅/羽潤親膚粉餅（台）

去痘印法寶水楊酸 | Salicylic Acid Products for Acne Scars

I haven't written here for a few months, and got secret reader urging me to keep updating :P
So let me start with a short post (hopefully) about the two products I use to deal with my acne scars.

Vichy Haul | Kinda disappointed

I don't have much love for all products pictured in this post. So this would only be a short post, with only 1 single picture because I don't bother to take more. 
這篇文章裡提到的產品我都沒有很愛。所以這只是篇短文，只拍了一張照片，因為我懶。

For the first three items mentioned below, I cannot apply more than one of them in my day or night skincare routine because of the heavy fragrance.
由於下面介紹的頭三項產品香料都太重，我不能一早/晚同時塗多於一種。

Empties May 2014 | Challenge Accepted!

This month I agreed to enter an Empties Competition with my cousin Jacq, one I'm destined to lose from the moment I joined because throughout the month, I was too busy packing and unpacking stuff to bring in new furniture for my room. My goal for entering is only to force myself use more beauty products up before they expire or I lose interest in them, or simply to get rid of old stuff to bring in more new ones.

Jacq's already posted her CAUSION: VERY LONG post and you can check it out HERE.

I have a bad habit of loving a product when using the first half of it, then becomes bored and open another product to try... so many products are opened at the same moment. And this month I struggle to use the second halves up!

3 mandelic acid products from Dr.Hsieh

How lazy am I to not blog for so long? I have been busy for about a month and finally got time to mow the lawn now :P 

The brand Dr. Hsieh's mandelic acid line has been in my night skincare routine for more than a year now. I like using m acid more than facial scrub, as it can not only remove dead cells but also treat acne and adjust my combination skin to a less oily more neutral level. After using m acid for such a long time, I can say this easy acid peeling skincare method fits me very much. 

這麼久不寫文到底是多懶啊？過去一個月太忙了，現在終於有時間來這邊清掃蜘蛛網，把存檔的照片翻出來寫文啦 :P

這篇要寫的是持續愛用中的Dr. Hsieh杏仁酸！晚間護膚程序中，使用杏仁酸應該有一年多時間了，比起臉部磨砂產品我更愛用杏仁酸，除了去角質還能治療痘痘和調理膚質，這種家居輕果酸煥膚的方式很適合我。

What my Bro got me from Osaka | 大阪帶回戰利品

My brother just came back from his trip to Osaka, Japan. Here's the beauty products I made him hunt for me (evil smile).

Shiseido Haul | Good Service keeps me BUYing

Kung Hei Fat Choi! Happy New Year of the Horse!

On the first day of Year of the Horse, I'm writing my first beauty blog post in both ENGLISH and CHINESE to celebrate! YAY!

恭喜發財！馬年快樂！

大年初一，來寫我第一篇中英雙語美容文章慶祝吧！

豐儉由人三款保濕舒緩蘆薈面膜

這篇是策劃很久但也拖很久未寫完的蘆薈片狀面膜文！

（拖了好半年終於寫完要PO了）

換季/過敏就應該敷蘆薈面膜，鎮定肌膚又補水啊！

懶得弄凝膠面膜(要敷很久敷到都睏了)，或者太怕冷，

紙面膜是個省時快速的好選擇！

最近試了三款蘆薈成分面膜來寫個集合文！

2013/11月小日記 | 購物慾旺盛

11月小日記大遲到......
每月小日記開始比較像是每月敗家物紀錄？
先記錄下來吧，還沒拍照的品項慢慢後補～

本月大事：Jacq’s Wedding 

參加Jacq 婚禮的穿搭～ 拍得我腿很長，男友值得讚賞！

髮型化妝細節圖（！？）
實際唇色比圖片深一點，更偏玫瑰色一點。相機把臉上的色彩都吃掉大半了Orz

想看新娘子的點這邊---> Jacq's Wedding Post
新娘子和我好像才拍了一兩張單獨的合照？
改天叫我哥從他手機挖挖看好像有幾張在他那邊～

SOGO 20周年崇光感謝周年慶資訊

Sogo 11月的THANKFUL WEEK特惠資訊發布了！

但是官網http://bit.ly/1fvOH9I用電腦看的話HANG到進不去，
我發現用手機在官網下載Pdf更快，
所以下載來這邊整理成一篇文章比較方便看！
誰叫實體版本的LEAFLEＴ還沒寄到我家啊啊啊～

2013年末的週年慶時間是11月15日至24日，要注意想買的組合可能是期間某天開賣啊！

趕快來看看有沒有喜歡的東西！（點圖可放大，或者按右鍵在新分頁開啟連結放大看）

照例只PO銅鑼灣店的消息，有化妝護膚品消息的都在下邊！
香氛那頁Pdf 官網的連結掛掉了，所以沒有在下邊！

每個品牌其實不只這些優惠套裝的，詳細版還是要留意品牌的官方Facebook！
我會在這篇不斷更新我有在Facebook Follow的品牌更新的優惠組消息，
所以文章記得要看完啊～

2013/10月小日記

Oct 23, 2013

天氣冷了點，開始穿深色點的秋裝，發現妝太裸、臉上顏色太淡看起來氣色不好......

所以問Jacq 借了深色點的眼影盤來試試畫，換個風格。
>>>是說要我自己買野沒頭緒應該買哪種，不知道適合哪種啊！

2013/9月小日記/內容好虛啊=.="

Sept 18, 2013

結果九月只寫了首爾敗家文！連結在這：Seoul 2013首爾行戰利品/美妝好買到破產
開學以後忙得要命，沒什麼閒暇時間寫文，又懶！
應該要勤力點寫的啊！好多題目和美容美妝品想分享的！

Instagram倒是有在碎屑般的空閒時間更新！
每週大概都會有幾次隨心更新的小紀錄。

十月要寫完開了頭的文章！
有三種蘆薈片狀面膜的文章，還有Shiseido的泥膜，都適合這個換季的時候使用！

Sept 8, 2013

八月初去了首爾玩五天，買到第三天就破產......
戰利品終於算是全都拍好了照片（大合照分好多張啊我的媽啊）
期待我的戰利品文吧！！！

給張韓服照看著先～

Seoul 2013首爾行戰利品/美妝好買到破產

首爾行買到我快破產！
我本來沒在迷韓國美妝品的，但到了韓國想著機票錢都花下去了，
那麼抵買又新奇，當然是得把店搬回家啊！
上圖是男友拍我在明洞Lotte Young Plaza 的3CE認真地試用，
看我手上還拿著筆要修改清單就知道了！（握拳）
可惜還是漏買了一顆眼影（殘念），只好在回香港以後跟黑咪的團補買 :P


事不宜遲，主要是美妝的超長戰利品POST開始！
P.S. 拜託如果發現哪樣我買貴了的話不要告訴我（掩住耳朵）

Dr.Douxi火晶靈極粹美白火山泥/吸走粉刺亮白膚色

Dr.Douxi 新出的兩款泥膜有職業部落客、也有不接案子的美妝部落客Goris寫過，

之前在做特價任選兩款泥膜NT498，我覺得價格合適就購入了。
台牌常常都特價，看到價格覺得OK就買吧 :P
加在七月尾的台灣代購包裹裡
