Thanks Burt's Bees for having us in such a classy and comfortable cafe.
their foods are very nice! Especially BlueBerry pudding! 
I think I had 3 or 4 :P 
girls oh girls , who doesn't like dessert ! 

every table with beautiful setup , fresh flowers and all their lip products for us to try. 


Today's topic

Introducing six creamy, full-coverage shades of matte lip color in a modern crayon for truly beautiful lip color. Lightweight moisture for a comfortable, everyday wear formula infused with Shea Butter, Kendi Oil, and Jojoba Oil. It's color that truly cares for your lips!

• Creamy matte color and moisture-rich wear
• For everyday wear either alone or layered under a Lip Gloss or Lip Shine
• Precise application in a playful form without the hassle and mess of sharpening
• No added flavor or fragrance
• Hydrates and moisturizes lips, leaving them feeling soft and smooth

Featured Ingredient
Shea Butter — Shea Butter helps to hydrate and moisturize dry lips leaving them feeling soft and smooch-worthy smooth.

Enriched with conditioning Jojoba Oil and Kendi Oil, which are chock full of Omega 3 to hydrate and moisturize lips. And don't forget the Shea Butter for an extra dose of moisture.

How to use it 
Remove cap, twist bottom of the barrel to expose product and apply to lips for your desired level of "wow." Use the rounded tip to outline lips and fill in the rest by layering on the color. Then pucker up because you are ready to go.

Product weight : 3.11g

Price
RM81.50

Total 6 shades 
Niagara Overlook - A nude colour that suitable for nude lips look
Sedona Sands - A nude color as well but with a hint of pink 
Hawaiian Smolder - A sweet pink colour 
Caroline Coast - A coral peach orange colour 
Redwood Forest - A red with a hint of brown undertone , this colour look matured on me
Napa Vineyard- A strong chilli red colour that makes you stand out from the crowd 

due to the indoor lighting in the cafe is slightly worm so the colour not so accurate no matter how I adjust the lighting in photoshop. 
strongly suggest to try out their lip colours at their counter and beauty adviser will recommend what colours you should take :D


Hawaiian Smolder is my favourite shades among all, 
it looks good & sweet on fair skin. 
for me it last around 3-4 hours , easy to remove by make up remover. 




One of the star products from Burt's Bees! 
Burt's Bees Squeezable Beeswax lip balm with Vitamin E & Peppermint! 

It’s the original Beeswax Lip Balm you love—just squeezable. This version of our classic balm is softer and smoother, with a slanted tip for precise application. Our 100% natural formula contains moisturizing Beeswax and Vitamin E to keep lips soft and replenished—and, of course, a splash of Peppermint for that signature tingle.

• Inspired by an original! Introducing Burt’s Bees 100% Natural Lip Balm, now in a tube for consumers who prefer a smooth, softer, moisture-rich feel.
• This new lip balm delivers all the benefits and experience of our classic beeswax, just made squeezable
• This squeezable tube, with slant tip applicator, contains a formula with the same natural ingredients as our classic - beeswax to help protect lips, Vitamin E to moisturize, and Peppermint Oil to provide our signature, soothing tingle!

Product weight : 7g


Price: 
RM48.80

It's a very thick and oily beeswax for lips that needed special care , especially sensitive lip like me , I would recommend to apply a thick layer every night before you sleep for deep moisturise and hydrate effect just like a lip mask . 
if you wear it on day time I'm afraid it's a bit over oily :) but all depends on individual .

Number76 Premium UltraSonic Treatment and sparkling hair scalp wash REVIEW

Hi everyone! 

How's your day!  
I'm so happy today because I've received an invitation from my favourite saloon. 

Number76 

A-G-1, North Point No.1, Medan Syed Putra Utara, Mid Valley City, 
58000 Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
+60 3-2287 0661


Number76 saloon is well known in KL area, 
most of their customers is celebrities and famous bloggers . 
Why? 
Because they provided the best services and awesome skills just like Japan saloon 
yet the price is affordable too . 
What amazed me a lot is their styling skills and colour skills. 
you can logon to Number76 instagram or Facebook page, 
all you can see is beautiful rainbow colours hair and beautiful styling ! 

I really really wish I can try crazy beautiful colour someday :D 
that's always one of my dream. 


after renovated the saloon looks much bigger, simpler, clearer and the best thing is natural light from the big wide clear window. Because most of the saloon using indoor yellowish light, some customers couldn't really see the actual colour of their hair . 

big and simple interior design ! 

a cup of tea, a biscuit & thanks for the Deesse's hair treatment too . 
Such caring saloon <3 

The first treatment I'm going to do is Sparkling Scalp ~! 
they use CO2 water that contain soda gas to spray on scalp & hair. 
the whole process was fast and relax, just like a massage on my scalp. 

after rinse my hair , 
This is what's inside my scalp & hair, full of oil & dust . Yuck!  

This is ultrasonic iron 
*power on* 

when they turn on the ultrasonic iron the colour of the light changed to blue. 
I can actually see the water drops is dancing within the iron! 


There is no heat involved in this signature treatment by Number76 Hair Salon. SinYee asked me to put my fingers on the iron and yes it is cold. I can also see how the water drops vibrate as the straightener vibrates at 37,000 beats per second, separates particle of protein, water and oil in hair treatment. For the UltraSonic Premium Iron Hair Treament, this process is repeated twice compared to the normal UltraSonic Hair Treatment.


The Ultraonic Iron an enhanced effect on all chemicals such as hair color, perm lotion and hair treatment that are applied to your hair. 
It also vibrates the cells of my hair and helps to penetrate the treatment cream deep into my hair. I can hear and feel the mild vibrating sound during the ironing process and I do not feel any discomfort at all.

My before & after. 
can you see the HUGEEEEEEE difference ? 
Taken on the same day, couldn't believe the result is so obvious! 
Because I've been to many different saloon for treatment,
 but none of them gave me such amazing result. 

after Director Steve style my hair , so gorgeous isn't it! 
Every time he gave my so many surprised !   


with friendly Sinyee, she's sooooo friendly and talkative! 
we both chat like no body business lol ! 
the whole saloon is full of our voice XD
I like her hair very much too! waiting my hair become longer so that I can do that big curls too ~ 

Can you see how shining is my hair now? it's super soft , bouncy and smooth! 
SinYee recommended us who with damaged hair should do this treatment once a month to 
get an healthy hair . Whole progress is only 60minutes including hair mask, sparkling hair wash, ultra sonic and hairdo. It wouldn't take too long :) 

Details 
here's a price list of Number76 service 
Premium Ultrasonic RM370
