QTTO MAKE ME SKINNY PLS

Dr Scholl's QTTO Socks

These have been on the market in Hong Kong for a while now

It's suppose to release fatique and pressures in your legs and also reliefs of water retention problems, which is actually a pretty common problem for girls and causes their legs to look/feel/be bigger than they really are!

I've finally read about a few user's comments and decided to try them out

They retail for about $249HKD (a little bit on the pricey side I think)

I've only tried them for one night but here's what I think:

• they don't feel tight or too snug for sleeping, even for my abnormally massive calves, which is good, because who wants to be uncomfortable when they're sleeping?
• i forgot to measure my legs before and after wearing them to sleep (maybe I'll do that tonight) but my legs felt less tense than usual when I woke up
• i've always had really tense legs (since i was quite young actually), and after one night, i felt that my legs didn't feel as tight and tense after my walk from the train station to work. 

Overall I think they were pretty good for the first night and I'm definitely going to keep using them. I'll keep posting if anything DRAMATIC happens (I doubt it) 

cheap alternative

i thought it over and over

i couldn't justify $2499 for a wallet at the moment

even if it's so beautiful and metallic and pink and mercibeaucoup,

i jus couldn't

so here is the cheap alternative

for a mere $280

my beloved skurvy (that makes 3, a full set!)

mak loves mac

i'm a HUGE sucker for mac cosmetics

i'll buy anything from any of their collections

usually i'll buy mostly eye shadows (i've built up quite a collection of their eye shadows....)

lately i've been buying more nail polishes 

there's a new collection coming out in March (I believe)
RIVETING collection

3 matte nail polishes in a silver, black and brownish tan shade

how to choose? 




P.S. the PENULTIMATE eyeliner that's with this collection is also really good 
i bought it with the previous release and loved it!

to buy or not to buy?

mercibeaucoup

wash or not to wash

do you wash new purchases before wearing them?

i know some people are really keen about washing before wearing but how do you stand the wait?! don't you just want to wear new purchases right the way?

i know i do!

the link between art, people & nature

Went to visit the two new shopping malls in TST today, iSquare & K11. A bit disappointed with the shops and the overall feel inside. Truthfully, all the white walls inside iSquare were hurting my eyes. K11 had a warmer feeling but there were a few boys at the information desk & handing out brochures that looked funny and I couldn't really make sense of what they were suppose to be or resemble. I did see the "art" element of K11 but it wasn't that obvious. I walked past 2 paintings/photographs thinking they were part of the fascade of the shop between them.

Had dinner @ a ramen restaurant on the 6/F of iSquare. Their set dinners are quite delicious, very filling and quite reasonably price. I'd definitely recommend it.

Looking forward to going back to K11 again to visit the art again and to the upcoming exhibits too. In terms of iSquare, I think I'd only go back to try out the rest of the restaurants which all looked quite good!
