The Balm: Frat Boy

I was shopping yesterday and I came across a Sasa Store here in KL. I saw the Balm stand. Originally, I was looking for the Bahama Mama Bronzer but it was out of stock. Luckily, I found the blusher that I was looking for.


I bought the Balm Frat Boy blusher. I heard a lot of great reviews for this product. 


That is the front cover. The Balm products are cute. Their packaging gives that vintage feel. 


The back cover.


The packaging is magnetic. Which I like. It also comes with a mirror inside.


The blusher in pink peach tone.


The swatch of the blush on my hand.


The mirror which is reminiscent of a football field.

I like the pigmentation of this product. I think this will be included in my April favorites.

Haul from Sephora

I just got home from shopping and I have a haul from Sephora. I will post about the products in my coming entries. For now, this is a preview of what I bought.


Nando's Food Trip with Husband

We were finally able to eat at Nando's today. We've always wondered about the long lines at Nando's. Nothing fancy actually. Hahaha :D 

Food portions are good. I love the fact that it uses a lot of herbs and spices. Good price for the food.



Pita bread with Potato Wedges and Coleslaw 


I wasn't adventurous. I just chose the Lemon and Herb. 


Breast Filler with garlic bread and potatoes. I think 2 people can eat this dish. It has big servings. My husband chose the mild sauce.

Sephora CC Care + Color

 I'm really not a fan of BB creams but as what I said before, I use the product as a primer for my face. I think it makes my foundations last longer. A couple of weeks ago, sephora sent me an email about this CC cream. I actually thought this was the airbrush foundation because packaging looks similar. My husband bought this as a gift for our wedding. 


It says in the package that it is a CC Care + Color SPF 20 sunscreen more beautiful than ever. The scent of this product reminds me of the color collection BB cream. I don't know if all BB creams have the same scent but it actually smells the same. 


That is the back part of the box.


This is the CC cream. It contains 1 fl. oz. It also says in the packaging that it even skin tone, it smooths the skin and it gives radiant glow.


It comes with a built-in pump which is good. 


My hand with no product 


The consistency of the CC cream is rich. It does not drip on my hand which I think is good.


That's an unblended CC cream.


End result of blending the CC cream.

Overall, my first impression of this product is good. It has a good coverage. Consistency of the product is good. It has a nice scent. I think I like this product.

I will play with this more in the future and I will give an in-depth review of this in the coming entries.

Food Trip: Black Olive Cerveceria

It was Ladies Night last Saturday and ate Cacar messaged me if I can go out that night. I said yes of course! Who would resist going out? I'm making the most out of my single life. Anyway, I only have 5 days left before I get married so I'm expecting this week to be very hectic. 


We were supposed to go to Shangri-la Mall and eat fancy food at the new wing but we got lazy to move to Shangri-La. We decided to hop to Capitol Commons instead. It's just walking distance from our houses. Our first choice was Tipsy Pig. We were already inside but the place was already packed with people at 8 pm. 

Good thing we decided to leave and went to Black Olive Cerveceria. We were accommodated immediately. We had a nice table on the second floor. Ambiance was good. The service was good. Thumbs up to Black Olive. 



The food for me was delicious. We ordered Pizza, appetizers and pasta. Price is on the higher end but overall it was a nice experience. 


The attendant gave us a complimentary dish. It's bread with fancy oil dip. I don't know the name. Hahaha :D sorry. But anyways, it was okay.


Then they served the calamari. The calamari was also okay. The dip was okay too.


Then they served this. I think this is in the hot plate. It's called Chorizo something....but this I have to say is one of the best dish. It's really delicious. I love this plate.


And then this is the Proscioutto de Parma. Yummy for the price. It was worth it. I think this is P390 or something.


This one is the pasta. I also forgot the name but this is a good dish. I love the fact that they have quality food. It was rich in flavor. 


My lovely neighbors. Ate Cacar and Ate Sheena :)


We would definitely go back here if time permits. I love the place. I love the food. I love the service.
