Kose Q10 Eye Masks
Its just 2 days ago for my last entry ! haa.. well.. probably because i have many things i want to blog about.. keke.. as my gal pal(u know who u are ! own up !) puts it me.. the "ti ta" one wants to yak.. haha.. basically i think i got very chatty after i got to know her ! muahhahha.. all thanks to her i can yak on and on about almost anything ! (err.. i know you must pity my Lao Gong)
Frankly speaking, i pity him too.. wahahha.. but he is a nice guy.. keke very sweet n patient type.. so he never and has not complained yet... (note i use the word "yet") keke... Anyway, the main purpose of this entry is to review tried & tested Kose Q10 Eyemasks.

Kose Q10 Eyemasks
Highly raved in the Taiwan variety show 女人我最大 hosted by Lan Xing Mei, i found out about this product and decide to sell on my online store it since its highly recommended, and naturally my customers/ potential customers want to know the effectiveness of it and the the actual feel of these masks. Erm.. me having panda eyes made me a perfect candidate too lah ! wahaha..
Firstly, this eye mask is the most convenient type of mask i have used so far ! Its like a pack of wet tissue with a re-sealable flap. To use it, just open up the flap, take out 2 pcs and place it under your eyes. Extremely convenient (no more excuses not to use it) Initially, i was rather skeptical about the masks and started to wonder, hmmm.. am i pasting normal wet tissues onto my face ?? (those you get at Zhi Cha stall= Chinese style coffee shop type !) Nonetheless, having 18pairs of it, Yep, 18 pairs ! i better use it ! So there you go ... After few minutes, the under eye area has a tight feeling (seems to be firming up). After about 15-20minutes, when i feel that the eye mask starts to dry up, i removed it and guess what ! To my pleasant surprise, the dark ring (panda) area appeared a little whiter ! Wow.. it works ! Yay.. Finally i thought its about time..Bye bye Panda !!... After removing the masks, tap lightly on the undereye area for the essence to be absorbed into the eyes & Do not wash off !... After some time, the whiteness seem to blend into the skin and disappears into it and under eye area feels firm, Of course my dark eye rings did not disappear over night, they are still around but looks like not getting any blacker for sure !! >^_^<
I don't think my dark eye rings can be removed 100% through this eye masks cos its no miracle eye masks but i feel its a good eyemask to hydrate our delicate undereye area, prevent the black/panda eyes from getting any darker and slightly lighten the dark rings ; possibility of dark rings get lightened more as i have feedbacks from customers that it lightens their dark rings quite significantly ! REALLY ! Think mine are gone case panda thus see slight improvement. Thus, in my humble opinion is much better than many cream products ( at least 3 !! err.. better not name it la huh.. keke ) which i have used previously and have seen ZERO effects !

Tokyo Disneyland

hi boys & gals, its been such a long time since i posted anything and looking at the date of last entry, time has really flies, it been more than a year since my last entry !!! Unbelieavable, its not that i sat there rotting away, in fact it has been an eventful year so much so that a single post today would not be justifiable.

Well, i would just summarise it short and sweet and from now onwards, add vibrant colours and pictures to my almost forgotton blog.(now that i am getting a hang of blogger...though not good at it, experts pls teach me how to beautify my blog, pretty please, anything at all)

Firstly, for those whom are not aware/i did not inform (thousands of apologies) , i AM in Japan to accompany my hubby for his overseas posting. Ahem. sorry but i am not a "tai tai" here, i wished i was though. (i am working here full-time... sigh) Just a Japanese wannabe tai tai.. keke

Well.. as to how i "remembered" (pun intended) my almost forgotton blog is since 2 months ago i have started/opened an online store ! Yippee, its a dream come true ! i always & i mean always wanted a store of my own ! n now i have my own virtual store ! I want to advertise my store(erm.. not that i have many readers here lah ) In addition, i want to review products featured on my store as i often have queries on the effectiveness of products and suddenly i remembered i have this blog ! I would also blog about our lives away from the sunny island city and here in the land of peanuts.


Well, to start the ball rolling, *drum roll* presenting everyone's favourite Tokyo Disneyland ! Just 2 weeks ago we visited Tokyo Disneyland n here's a peep of what we did !




The set
The Cast - United Asians, u have the hospitable Japanese, the friendly Koreans n the Sillyporeans... wahaha


The Star - Misaki chan みさきちゃん, our Japanese colleague little daughter, dressed as Minnie.
It was 3rd March (which is also the Doll's festival) .

The supporting "star"... haha.. me n a Disney character ! Who/What is it ??? Is it Bren the rabbit ? Who cares, just grab it n snap first lah (Sillyporean style) oops



My Lao Gong - Don't want to lose out to me also, grabbed a bear (errr.. i also duno this character name !) Where are all the popular characters ! I want to take photo with pooh san... hehe , suddenly i remembered i am less than month short of being 29 ! eEEKs..
The all-famous Cinderella Castle.. what is a fairy tale without a castle


Its lunch time and we are gobbling on Mickey's burgers and nuggets ! I can't bear to eat it !
Mickey's burger kawaii ne !(ミキのバーがーかわいいね)


Before splash mountain ride. Trying to be funny


After being splashed ! Not funny anymore !

Queen of Hearts theme restaurant >> Where is the camera ? 2 Sillyporeans and 2 Japanese kids posing lei !





Menu is fixed >> Choose ur main




Choose a dessert if desired.. oishii desu ne (おいしいですね)



A Heart bun ... so sweet

After a hard day's work and hole in pocket, its goodbye Disneyland ! (バイ バイ、またね!) 

Some tips if you are making your way to Tokyo Disneyland

(0) If u are not on a tour, it pays to be early ! It is usually very crowded at all times of the year, everyday of the week ! (It ok to be Kiasu now !) Arrive at the entrance at 8am, if possible !

(1) Bring enough/lots of cash (as in Japanese Yen) and don't forget ur plastics ! The Disney goodies are so irresitably cute, u can't go home without something. For the budget conscious, stay away from all the stores at ALL times !

(2)If you have a popcorn bucket from previous visits, bring it ! Its cheaper to top up your popcorn than to buy a new one again. If i remember correctly, 260yen for a refill and 1100yen for a bucket with strap.

(3)Make use of Fast-pass wisely, decide on die-die must take rides and secure fast pass with it first. Fast pass >> is a pre-acquired pass at a designated time to take the ride with minimum queue-ing time.

(4)Relax & enjoy at least a parade, relive your childhood.(Especially if you are not too fond of Q-ing for the rides and did not manage too get any fast-pass.)

(5) Wear a comfortable pair of shoes ! Lots of walking, running to be done.. keke

(6) Food at Disneyland are relatively delicable (not sure about fussies though) but Q-ing is inevitable especially during meal times ! Bring some snacks if u cannot "tahan" hunger.

(7)No glass bottles or alcohol is allowed in Disneyland, Disneysea sells alcohol though.

(8) Caramel popcorn is yummie(if this is a tip) haha

(9) Enjoy great Japanese service at Disneyland !

(10) Have a jolly good time !

*PS-> i forgot to advertise my online shops !!
