"Wear/use till worn out!"

Happy Monday everyone! How did you guys spend your weekend? Well, mine is normally nothing exceptional... The usual Lil Nat's daily routine.

Have you ever like something..well example clothings, bags, shoes or accessories and will wear/use them so often that you almost "wear/use them till worn out"? Today I'm going to dig out some of my favorite stuff and share with you guys these top 10 favorites that have me wearing/using them so often!

Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation

Hello lovelies! Hope the week has been good for you. 

I wanted to do a review post some time last week. But unfortunately :( I had an emergency appendicitis condition last Monday and had been admitted to the hospital for a surgery. I will talk about it in another post next time. All in conclusion, last week was awful with pain, swollen abdomen, anxiety of surgery (first time eh!), the recovery (which made me feel like I am in confinement!). Despite all that, I'm thankful I'm in good hands now with lots of care and concern from family and friends. I realized life is really about...you-don't-know-when-you'll-be-out-and-down.

Back to our post of the day, yeah, it is about Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation which has topped my Love List for foundation. I owned Revlon Colorstay liquid foundation before and it was an amazing love! Sadly Revlon discontinued it...how sad! That foundation was a hit among many people too. Since then I was trying out other brand foundations. When Revlon Colorstay Whipped Foundation was newly launched, I didn't take notice of it. My first impression is "oh well, this one looks thick".... I then read a couple of reviews of this baby and they are pleasantly good reviews! Curious as a cat, I went to try the testers. Wow, it didn't feel heavy on my hand upon  swatched. I know this baby has to go back with me ;)

Project Back in Shape

Hello everyone! How was your Sunday? I hope you had a fruitful weekend filled with lots of fun. Most importantly, hope you are fully recharged for the coming week!

In this post I just want to touch a little on weight issue. I don't know what's going on with my appetite lately. Arghh, it seems like my appetite is so enormous and I had so much sinful stuff over the months - lately especially! 

I was looking at some pictures I was tagged in FB during a wedding of our friend in March this year. I was just about 3 1/2 months post-delivery. I loved how I looked back then (you know, there are those times when u can proudly say yeah that's my best look!). I was able to flaunt my new orange toga dress and wear tight fitting tops without the need to suck in the tummy!

Just over 4 months after the wedding, I now feel that my waistline and bottom has expanded so much - the best "person" to tell you that you have put on weight is your clothes! In addition, I also feel my face is looking slightly rounder and puffy (blame it on the salt?). 

I must admit I have slacked...big time...lack of determination and discipline :( Boo hoo...!!!

There had been really too much junks, too much salt, too much sugar, too much MSG and overdose of carbo! Oh dear, where are all my inspirations to stay fit, healthy and feel-good-about-myself feeling that I got after my delivery??? I was very determined and staying so fit that I had people asked me how did I get my pre-delivery shape bck (in fact after delivery I was in better shape and weight than before I was preggy :") )

Starting Monday LBK wants to restart on "Project Back in Shape. So welcome healthier food, goodbye sinful food. Don't worry, I'm not going to stave myself to skeleton. Just going to watch out my diet, try to spend time on some exercises and be a little strict on the cravings!

Thanks for listening to my ramblings. Anyone experience this kind of yo-yo weight problem as well/before? Feel free to share your stories & your tips. 

There will be a review on a foundation soon so stay tuned! 

Lastly, let's stay fit, healthy and feel good about ourselves. Have a lovely day!

"A smile is a curve that sets everything right"

Hey Beatles!

What come across your mind when we mention pasar pagi/pasar malam (in English means morning/night market)? Vegetables, meat, poultry, fruits, seafood and snacks stuff? These markets have evolved! There are apparel, lingerie, kidswear and accessories stalls too. And don't be surprise we may dig some good buys from there! Buying stuff from pasar pagi/malam is no longer an auntish thing, seriously. Sometimes we can find nice stuff for younger people at a cheaper price compared to shops or boutiques.

Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo by Eyestudio Cream Eyeshadow

If someone asked me what are LBK best buys so far in 2013, I would happily say Maybelline 24 Hour Color Tattoo By Eyestudio cream eyeshadow is one of them! I'm impressed and I'll share with you why. When I read raving reviews about it plus 24 hour and tattoo on its name (double wow!!!), I told myself I got to try this baby!

Silkygirl Magic BB White Powder Foundation

I'm pretty excited!!! My first review...surprise, surprise it's Silkygirl...a drugstore brand. Don't get me wrong, overall this is a wallet-friendly brand with reasonably good items like their eye shadows (duo pallete which I used many many years back). It's just that I have "tons" of products (tons here is super mini collection in my definition compare to many makeup gurus & beauty bloggers out there but to my friends my collection is consider tons!) but I choose to start with Silkygirl Magic BB Powder Foundation :) This is my newest buy added to my makeup "collection". For that reason, I'm excited to share my thoughts on it!

Starting all over again

Hi lovelies! I started a blog some time back but it didn't get far. Blame it on my procrastination and my heavy workload last time. I have enjoyed so much reading blogs and reviews. And wanted to do the same. I feel updated and inspired (some bloggers from the blogs I regularly read are really awesome!). There are so much to learn from people out there!

So I'm starting all over again (YES for the motivation!!!)... To share my thoughts on things in life, good buys, product reviews, F&B and anything that caught my eyes & attention. And perhaps baby stuff too (oh yeah, LBK has upgraded to momma level).

Do enjoy your stay here. Stay connected!
