Healthy Drinks by GreenMax

Hi Lovelies,

I'm back to share with you something other than beauty... something on the healthy side! I've been pretty addicted with these drinks lately. I must say, the first time my mom purchased them I was quite skeptical about the taste, because the drink didn't look too appealing. Once I got use to the "appearance", I really like the taste of it. The drink I'm talking about is by GreenMax and I got them from chinese grocery stores. Here are the 4 flavors that I like and tried:

Black Sesame Cereal

Yam & Mixed Cereal

I like to drink these two, the Black Sesame Cereal and the Yam & Mixed Cereal, in the morning when I'm in a rush. I would take it as my breakfast. Or at night time when I'm hungry and it's too late to grab something to eat. 

Almond Tea with Hazelnut

Black Beans with Matche

The last two, Almond Tea with Hazelnut and Black Beans with Matcha I usually drink it anytime of the day! From the 4 that I've tried, the ones I like most is the Almond Tea with Hazelnut and Black Beans with Matcha.

Has anyone tried any of them? How do you like them?

50% off at The Body Shop this weekend only!

Hi Ladies,
I went to the mall today and discovered that The Body Shop was having 50% off on everything when you purchase a reusable bag for $5! By purchasing this bag, you also stop sex trafficking of children & young people. Great deal isn't it? The sale doesn't apply to gift set though. So here are a few things I picked up while I was there...

This is the reusable bag

And here are the products I got

• Vitamin E Face Mist - On-call moisture and vitamin E protection
• Vitamin E Skin Essentials - Moisture cream, night cream, cream cleanser and toner
• Radian Highlighter
• Facial Massager - Boosts radiance, helps skin better absorb moisturizer
• Organic Cotton Rounds - made from 100% organic cotton, soft and gentle on the skin

Most of these products I heard were very good from Youtubers and Bloggers!

At the end, the cashier gave me two small samples:

• Body Butter in Lavender and Coconut ^^

I love these small sample containers, they don't look cheap. I will surely reuse them once I'm done with the Body Butters.

Did anyone take advantage of this sale to get a few things to try out?

Review: Physicians Formula Eye Booster 2-in-1 Day & Night Lash Boosting Serum

Hey Ladies,
Here's my last review on my recent Physicians Formula purchase, the Eye Booster 2-in-1 Day & Night Lash Boosting Serum. It comes with a very thin felt tip applicator and I got it in clear.

What it claims:

• Visibly enhances natural lash growth while nourishing & conditioning lashes
• Lash boosting complex targets the root of lashes where it is most effective in providing nutrients associated with growing long, thick lashes

What I think about the product:

• When you first apply this product on the base of your eyelash, it does sting a little for a few seconds or so
• After some research on the product (comment from PinkOrchids made me worry), I found some interesting information on New York Times. 
• Not sufficient research has been made to prove the safety of these products
• Some side effects of Latisse: itching, irritation, redness and increased brown pigmentation of the iris.
• I'm not about to take chances with some product that might be unsafe.

I hope everyone out there who's using some kind of eyelash enhancer be careful and just listen to the reactions that your skin tells you! I've already stopped using it, no chances are taken!

Did anyone get any reactions using any kind of eyelash enhancer?

Review: Physicians Formula Organic Wear Jumbo Lash Mascara

Hey Beauties,
I'm back with the review of the Organic Wear Jumbo Lash Mascara. Firstly, I just want to mention that this mascara does not come in waterproof! I was disappointed, but still got it just because it had a Full Price Mail-In-Rebate!

Here's how the mascara look like. It comes with a very unique packaging, shaped like a leaf. The brush is very similar to the CoverGirl Lashblast brushes and I love it! 

This mascara contains:

• 100% Free of Synthetic Solvents (can cause dry brittle lashes), Organic Orange Water (to hydrate and moisturize) and Organic Aloe & Cucumber Extracts (soothing and moisturizing)
• 100% Natural Origin Biopolymers (for clump-free lashes)
• 100% Natural Origin Preservatives (reduces the risk of irritation)
• 100% Natural Origin Rice Protein & Organic Tapioca Starch (naturally boost volume) and Organic Beeswax (for a buildable formula)
• 100% Natural Origin Color Pigments
• 100% Free of Petroleum By Products

What it claims:

• 100% of the total ingredients are from natural origin
• 47% of the total ingredients are from Organic Farming

What I think about the product:

• I love the fact that this mascara feels very lightweight on my lashes
• It holds my curls
• It gives a very natural look that I love
• Love this product for everyday use
• When I have it on, my lashes still feels very soft and moisturized
• Don't need to think about the harm that it might cause, because it's 100% from natural origin
• Can easily be taken off with normal makeup remover

Without mascara:

With mascara

This is one mascara that I will repurchase for everyday usage. I wouldn't wear this on a night out, but for everyday, I think it's the best one!

Have you tried this mascara? What are your opinions on it?

Review: Physicians Formula Mineral Glow Pearls Blush

Hi Ladies,
so I'm finally back with one of the product review talked about in the earlier post. I've been using this blush for a week now and I'm loving it. I got this blush in Natural Pearl, it's a very pretty peachy rose with pearl like reflects.

What it claims:

• Unique palette of multi-colored pearls blend together to create an instant, healthy-looking glow for cheeks.
• Mineral pearl extract delivers a luxurious skin-perfecting effect
• Radiant finish blurs imperfections, revealing a flawless and youthful glow.
• Protects and conditions skin with antioxidant properties.

When you flip the blush over, you have a brush and a mirror. The blush I never touched because it's not soft at all!

What I think about it:

• I do love the pearl effect it has giving my cheeks a very pretty glow.
• Love the multi-colored blend so I can play around, going from a light to darker blush

Here's a swatch

I do like this blush a lot more than the Happy Booster Glow & Mood Boosting Blush because the other one has this very strong rose smell to it. I do have a very sensitive nose so the smell really does bother me!

Has anyone tried this blush? How do you like it?

Hope you enjoyed the review!
