She's back!

Welcome back pinkberry! I miss using you.

Along telah menjalankan sedekah amal jariahnya dengan menghantar repair BlackBerry aku ni. I'm excited nak guna BlackBerry balik. Though my friends and families banyak yang dah tak guna BlackBerry dah. Haha.

Ok, till then! So many updates to update on this pinkberry.

Toodles!

Oh, hai!

Aku tau, ada je kawan-kawan (apa entah lagi kawan-kawan yang sedang membenci aku) dan saudara mara kutuk aku belakang-belakang sebab aku tak kerja bagus, takde gaji tetap yang tinggi, takde aset, tinggal dengan parents. Aku tau.

Maklum la, aku ni kerjanya cuma menconteng (bukan arang) muka-muka orang saja. Job pun cipuuuut aje kan?

Rezeki aku mungkin lambat. Ataupun aku mati dengan hidup yang sia-sia. Tapi, buat sementara waktu, korang yang kutuk-kutuk ni, terima kasih la bagi pahala free kat aku. :)

Poligami.

Nak tau kenapa orang anti-polygamy macam aku wujud? 
Satu, sebab dah pernah merasa peritnya rumahtangga berantakan akibat poligami. Dua, sebab lelaki macam kau, kau dan kau kebanyakkanna mencipta alasan maha bodoh untuk berkahwin kali kedua. Tiga, sebab lelaki berpoligami selalu 'salahkan' takdir. Dah takdir kahwin dua. 
Bodoh. Dah kenapa nak salahkan takdir? Bukan tuhan kata nasib takkan berubah kalau kita tak berusaha ke? Sebab kau gunakan konsep takdir takkan berubah kalau kita tak berusaha tu semata-mata kat rezeki je. Bukan  kat seluruh hidup kau.
So?
Judge me away. I don't care! Oh, aku main-mainkan hukum Allah? Since when polygamy is His order? Tuhan memang membenarkan poligami, tapi semua ada guideline. Bukannya pakai alasan 3, 4 tahun kahwin tapi takde anak terus nak kahwin lagi satu. 3, 4 tahun weh. Baru 3, 4 tahun. Mana pegi kesabaran kau?
Ok fine, kau mampu. Kalau kau mampu sekalipun, kau tak fikir ke betapa hancur, remuk, redam hati orang yang pernah jadi permaisuri hati kau sendiri? Mana pegi "Abang janji ayang sorang la dalam hidup abang." "Bie akan setia dengan baby sampai bie mati." Okay, boleh muntah sekarang.
Kau kahwin la lain. Kalau semua guideline berpoligami mengikut Islam semua dah kena dengan kau. Kau kahwin la lain. Kalau perangai isteri kau buruk sangat. 
Bila dah kahwin dengan isteri number 2, kalau perangai dia buruk jugak, kau kahwin la lagi 1. Perangai isteri number 3 kau buruk jugak, kahwin la kali ke-4. Buruk jugak perangai isteri number 4 kau? Cerai isteri pertama, kahwin lagi. Begitu la seterusnya sampai kau rasa puas hati.
Aah, memang. Keyword dia PUAS HATI je. Antara tak dan iya. Senang.

Vanilla Twilight.

"The stars lean down to kiss you and i lie awake and miss you. Pour me a heavy dose of atmosphere because i'll doze off safe and soundly. But i miss your arms around me. I'd send a postcard to you dear, because i wish you were here. I'll watch the night turn light-blue, but it's not the same without you. Because it takes two to whisper quietly..." --Vanilla Twilight by Owl City.

[Review] Benefit 'that gal" Brightening Face Primer.

2 reviews in a day! Phewww. Tapi takpe la review cepat-cepat sebab nanti takut i forgot all the points while wearing the products kan? 2nd last to be reviewed from my precious Benefit Do The Bright Thing box is "that gal" brightening face primer.
Yes, it does brighten up my skin! If you don't like a glittery primer like MAC prep+prime, you definitely will love this primer because the end result will be the same as MAC prep+prime which is a very beautiful glow. This primer gave me a little extra oil on my face which i obviously don't like because i have a combination skin type. Me no like shine on my face yo!
It hold my foundation for a quite long time but less that 4 hours. After that it'll start to break and i have to touch up. I guess. it's not suitable to wear under a hot sunny day. Lagi-lagi kalau yang jenis kuat berpeluh. The texture is pink creamy and a little bit oily.
The smell, ahhhhhh, i don't like the smell. Seriously.

 

[Review] Benefit High Beam.

This has been in my wishlist for a long time. And lucky me, this thing was included in the Benefit Do The Bright Thing box that Fatin gave for my birthday. This is a highlighter actually. Nothing much to review about this product. It's a very good highlighter!
You'll get a healthy glow once you apply it. What's important when you apply a highlighter is to have a natural after-glow and this highlighter certainly give you that. It has a very soft pink creamy texture. It's not too oily so you'll get a dewy finished look after the application.
I love it. I love it and i love it. Enough said.

The packaging.

Swatch.

[Recipe] Custard pudding with sauce.

Terjadinya custard pudding ni adalah sebab Mak nak makan. Hari tu, aku pegi bazar Ramadhan GM, aku beli custard pudding. Tapi aku balun sampai habis, tak sempat Mak nak merasa. 2 potong, RM4. Sebenarnya okay la harga RM4 tu, orang menjual kan. Tapi, Mak macam cakap mahal letak harga macam tu, sebab barang nak guna pun takde la mahal mana. But then again, dah orang menjual kan. Huhu.

Ni bukan recipe campak-campak tau. Ikut sukatan betul-betul. Karang terlembek ke, terkeras ke pudding kome aku tak tau la. Heheheh.

Untuk custard pudding.
1. 2 cawan custard flour.
2. 6 cawan air.
3. 1/2 tsp garam.
4. 10 tbs gula.
5. 2 tbs susu pekat.

Bancuhkan custard flour dengan air tu. Bagi panas sikit baru masukkan garam, gula dan susu pekat. Kacau sampai pekat. JANGAN TINGGAL! Sebab nanti custard akan jadi berketul-ketul so end result akan jadi tak cantik.

Untuk sauce.
1. 2 tin susu cair.
2. 6 senduk gula.
3. 1 biji kuning telur.
4. 1 tsp vanilla essence.
5. 2 tbs corn flour. (Bancuh dengan air sikit)
6. 2 tin air. (Ikut tin susu cair tu)
7. Canned mixed fruits.
8. Kismis.

Panaskan susu cair. Masukkan gula, kuning telur, vanilla essence dan corn flour yg dah dibancuh dulu. Masukkan air. Dah didih sikit baru masukkan canned mixed fruits, masukkan sekali airnya. Letak kismis kalau nak. JANGAN TINGGAL jugak! Keep on kacau. Nanti meruap. Dah tutup api pun kacau jugak sampai asap hampir hilang.

Best served chill. Slurpppp.

#BFF

Everyone knows you can't choose your family. But you certainly can choose your friend and who you wanna be with. In the world ruled by bloodlines and bank accounts, it pays to have a pal. As much as BFF can make you go WTF, there is no denying that we'd be a little less rich without them.

My BFFs and i? We do besties better than anyone else. Now i know. It took me long enough to realize the true meaning of BFF. I'm so very sorry for that.

I know we gonna stick forever. Thank you for being there for me, always, all of you.

[Review] Benefit BADgal Liner Waterproof.

Next to review from my Benefit Do The Bright Thing box is, BADgal Liner Waterproof. Honestly, i am very excited to try everything from this box. Aku anggap, barang yang mahal dan branded adalah barang yang bagus. Well, aku terpaksa bunuh anggapan tu mulai sekarang sebab there are several things i don't like about this eyeliner.

Kalau kamu adalah seorang yang tak boleh keluar rumah without wearing an eyeliner like me, kamu akan cuba sedaya upaya untuk cari dan beli beli eyeliner yang bagus. Sebabnya, you'll be wearing your eyeliner for all day long. So, you don't want your eyeliner to creasing, bleading and smudging.

This eyeliner will slightly bleading after wearing it more than 6 hours plus. As you can see the picture below, the eyeliner is transfering a little bit on my lower lashline. Kalau jenis yang suka pakai eyeliner tebal-tebal, memang sah akan transfer to upper lid. If i can make a comparison between this eyeliner and Maybelline's Master Liner, this eyeliner is way lefted behind in the bleading aspect. I expect more from a pricey and branded eyeliner.

However, this eyeliner is very pigmented on the first apply, which is, obviously, very good la kan? So, akan jadi jimat la sebab tak payah apply banyak-banyak kali. Lagi, easy and fast application. Texture eyeliner ni macam creamy. Rasanya sebab tu la kot senang bleading. Desebabkan texture eyeliner ni macam creamy jugak la bila apply akan jadi senang. Sebab, dia macam glide on and slide on je. Huhu.

 Out of 5, i give this eyeliner 3 stars.

Finally!

Careless me.

Ya Allah, i'm so careless! Boleh pulak aku terlupa padam api lepas goreng telur tadi. Api naik tinggi kot! Sumpah terlupa. Aku tengah makan kat hall, tiba-tiba bau macam hangit. Aku pergi dapur, api dah menyala-nyala.

Dalam kepala aku dah ingat, kalau nak padam api jangan guna air sebab nanti api jadi lagi marak. Tapi, aku dah cuba tiup, taknak padam pulak. So, aku pun simbah la segelas air. Puffff, api menyambar. I can feel the heat on my forehead.

Kelam-kabut aku panggil Along. Tapi, tak sempat Along nak buat apa, api tu dah terpadam sendiri. Lucky me.

Pheww. I nearly burn my house! Astaghrafirullah. Bergetor satu badan aku ni. Daripada lapar, terus hilang selera nak makan. Aku punya la bising jerit-jerit kat dapur tu, Mak dengan Abah tak sedar la pulak. Pelik la jugak. Haha.

Alhamdulillah, nothing bad happened. I couldn't imagine if anything bad happen just now. I have to be extra careful with fire after this.

[Review] Loreal Lucent Magique BB Cream.

Dah dapat sample from Loreal couple weeks ago. So, dah boleh review. This is their new product. Namanya Lucent Magique BB Cream. Apa yang special pasal BB cream from Loreal ni ialah it has this magic capsule that self-adjust to any skintone. Tapi, BB cream ni color putih. That's why la 'magique' kot. 
Loreal claimed, this BB cream has 10 benefits. Lets see.
1. Minimises pores. (True, at least on my face.) 2. Smoothens skin texture. (Not quite but it's fine for me because this is not a foundation.) 3. Covers spots. (Not as good as foundation.) 4. Reduces the appearence of fine lines. 5. Evens skintone. (Works wonders!) 6. Luminous finish. (True.) 7. 24 hours hydration.  8. All-day comfort. (True, because of the very light texture) 9. Light-feel texture. (True.) 10. SPF 20 PA+++
I don't expect much on the covers spots and reduces the appearence of fine lines sebab this is just a BB cream, not a foundation. But, i can say it did quite a good job on those 2 points.
Macam BB cream yang lain jugak la, this BB cream brightens up my face. Disebabkan jenis kulit muka aku adalah combination, makanya BB cream ni sangat sesuai untuk aku sebabnya it's not oily so the end result will be matte finish. 
Hari tu masa hantar Danial masuk KPTM, aku pakai BB cream ni. Quite long wearing jugak la. But, hebat mana pun sesuatu BB creams or foundations, tetap jugak kena touch up because our face didn't stop to produce oils. Sigghh.
Here comes the cons. I found this BB cream dries faster, makes it a little bit hard to blend. This BB cream is quite pricey, RM49.90. What to do, Loreal in Malaysia is not a drugstore product, so we have to deal with the pricey price. Double sigh. Padahal, Loreal products are not imported pun, they have factory in Malaysia some more. Triple sigh.
I recommend this product if you have money. I give this BB cream 7.5 out of 10.

The 6ml sample. Thank you Loreal!

White creamy color.

1st blend; still white creamy color.

After a few blending process, it starts to matches your skintone.

Kalau perasan kat my middle finger tu, the BB cream has completely blend ed into my skin color.

[Recipe] Ayam percik.

Resepi ayam percik yang paling senang aku jumpa kat internet. Senang nak mampos la bagi aku. Tapi, aku tak tau la pulak resepi ayam percik yang original macam mana. Bagi aku, ni dah sedap dah. Again, ni resepi campak-campak dan ikut sesedap rasa je.

1. Ayam.
2. Bawang merah, bawang putih, sedikit serai. (Blend)
3. Cili boh/cili kisar.
4. Santan.

Tumis bawang merah, bawang putih dan serai sampai naik minyak. Lepas tu, masukkan santan, masak sekejap. Masukkan ayam, masak sampai empuk sikit, sampai kuah jadi pekat. Then, bakor dalam oven/microwave sampai masak. Ikut suka la nak biar sampai kuahnya completely kering ke atau tak. Aku biar ada kuah sikit, sedap gaul dengan nasik panas-panas. Dah, siap!

Nasehat.

Susah ye nak terima nasihat? Apa jenis nasihat pun la, susah sangat nak terima kan? Kenapa pun tak tahu la.

Tapi aku selalu dengar, orang tak nak terima nasihat sebab yang memberi nasihat tu tak layak. Tak cukup alim, tak cukup pandai, tak cukup hebat. Takde degree, takde master, takde phD.

I mean, seriously? Kamu tak pernah dengar ke yang kita WAJIB terima nasihat yang baik walaupun nasihat tu datangnya daripada seorang pelacur?

Hmmm.

Mempergunakan title 'blacksheep of the family'.

Before you make any assumptions, let me clarify everything. I love my parents, to the bits. Without them, i certainly can't be here. My heaven lies under their feet. But they are humans. Humans are not perfect and so are they. They make mistakes, even if they're your parents.

Tujuan aku menulis ni bukanlah untuk bukak kelemahan Mak dan Abah aku. Tapi, lebih kepada mempergunakan title 'the blacksheep of the family'. There are some advantages being the blacksheep of the family. That's what i'm gonna write.

Aku rasa, ramai je yang tak puas hati dengan parents dia. I mean, come on, we are not saints, they are not saints. Tinggal cuma, macam mana cara kamu luahkan ketidakpuasan hati kamu saja.

So, take a chill pill. Jangan panggil aku anak derhaka just yet.

I'm the blacksheep of the family. Walaupun aku anak bongsu. Well, Mak dan Abah cuma ada sepasang anak. Lelaki dan perempuan. Lelaki tu adalah Along aku, 29 tahun. Unmarried.

Being the blacksheep, well, i gotta tell you, not cool at all. Masa kecik-kecik, aku selalu terasa hati. Terasa hati sampai tahap nak lari rumah tak nak balik-balik lagi dah. Tapi, walaupun masa tu kecik lagi, entah macam mana aku boleh fikir and aku rilek-rilek je. End up, aku tak lari pun rumah.

Bila terasa hati, aku selalu cakap Mak mengamalkan favoritism antara aku dengan Along. Mak cakap dia tak pernah bezakan anak-anak dia yang cuma 2 orang ni. Bila aku sambung hujah dengan memberi contoh-contoh sikap favoritism Mak ke atas Along, Mak jadi mati perkataan. Lepas drama ni, selalunya aku sambung menangis la. Haha. I'm quite a drama queen back then.

Satu. Bila kamu rasa kamu adalah the blacksheep, kamu akan rasa nak buat semua benda sendiri. Iya la, dah tak dihiraukan. Indirectly, you'll become an independent person. Memang susah, tapi satu hari kamu akan rasa bangga bila kenang balik semua benda yang kamu buat sendiri.

I'm proud to call myself an independent lady. Dari kecik, almost everything aku buat sendiri. Masa aku masuk Teknik, segala jadah baldi, gayung, shampoo, sabun basuh baju, berus and bla bla bla SEMUA aku beli sendiri. I was just 16 at that time. Berdikari sangat. Masa daftar PUO, aku pegi sendiri. Orang lain datang dengan parents. Abah kerja, aku tak kesah.

Sampai punyalah berdikarinya aku ni, masa kat PSIS (i used to study at PSIS before PUO), aku angkut barang lari balik Ipoh pun sendiri-sendiri je. Tau-tau dah terpacak depan rumah. Mak dengan Abah terkejut gila. I was so drastic, sampai Mak dan Abah nak marah pun tak tau macam mana.

Dua. Jadi blacksheep ni selalunya parents akan jadi tak kesah bila kamu keluar for long hours pun. So, gunakan la kelebihan tu. Guna elok-elok laaa, kalau boleh. Haha. Masa zaman 'gelap', aku mempergunakan habis-habisan kelebihan ni. 

Kalau Along aku, walaupun dia lelaki dan dah berumur 29 tahun, Mak akan risau kalau Along tak balik rumah lebih dari pukul 1am. Pernah Mak call Along depan aku tanya kenapa tak balik lagi, aku tanya Mak kenapa tak call dan cari aku bila aku balik lambat? Mak kata, "Dah tau engko keluar dengan siapa, buat apa nak call?" Can you believe it?

Setakat ni, dua je la kelebihan yang aku boleh kongsikan. This is my experience. Memang, being the blacksheep in the family is hard sometimes. Tapi, positifkan diri la. Buat apa nak sesakkan kepala dengan fikir benda yang negatif?

Being the blacksheep of the family is not the end of your world. Create your own world and live happily in that world.

I believe, parents has their own ways to show us their love. Mungkin cara Mak aku tak meletakkan aku sebagai anak kesayangan dia but i know, she love me with all that she have in the world. I know. My Abah is neutral.

Nasib aku baik la sebab aku ni jenis blacksheep yang bukan kena cemuh-cemuh, kena hina-hina anak sial anak, anak tak guna la, apa jadah tu semua.

Tapi just in case kamu adalah blacksheep yang di-anak sial-kan, di-anak haram-kan, di-anak tak guna-kan, dicemuh, diherdik, dipukul, diterajang TANPA SEBAB, cari jalan ke dapur, bukak laci, ambik pisau dan bunuh mereka. Pastikan kamu dah khatam segala cerita CSI. ;)

[Review] Benefit They're Real! Mascara.

First thing to review from my Benefit Do The Bright Thing box is They're Real! mascara. You know, Benefit always came up with unique name for their products. Sometimes, it's hilarious!

Apa yang best pasal mascara ni ialah, they are real, just like the name. Maybe this is not the best mascara in the market, but this is by far, the best mascara for me. Wore it for the whole day, it doesn't broke, at least on my lashes la. Lain orang, lain hasilnya right?

The brush, it was designed to use vertically and horizontally. Apply 2 or 3 coat untuk hasil yang memuaskan. My tip, tunggu every coat kering dulu, baru apply another coat. This to prevent the lashes to clump. Unik la, tak pernah lagi tengok brush macam tu. The end of the brush, it reminds me of a torture device. Hahah.

I give this product 4 stars out of 5. I highly recommend you to buy this mascara if you have thin lashes, who wish to have a full volumized lashes without wearing any falsies!

#OOTD 30062013.

I'm working today. While orang lain tengah seronok duduk rumah or jalan-jalan dengan family kannn. Takpe lah, bukan selalu kena kerja on weekend. But June has been a great month for me and i'm so grateful for that. Alhamdulillah, rezeki.

Tapi kan, tapiii, ermmm, kat mana lagi nak luahkan kalau bukan kat sini kan? Huhu. Here's the thing. Today's client was the fussiest client i've ever had. No, not the client actually, her mother. Too much complaining. Too red lah, too bright lah, too dull lah. Haihhh.

Selalunya kalau make-up kat rumah aku akan suruh everybody out except for the photographers, kalau ada. Tadi, reception buat kat Royal Golf Perak (that is why i bersiap so beriya, hahah), so pengantin and some of her family members pun bersiap kat sana. So, i can't avoid la.

But, it's ok. This is experience. :)

Ok, till then! Toodles. Nak bersahur.
