Silkygirl New Products Unboxing

Hello, hope everyone is doing fine. It's been only a few days since the Taal volcano erupted. It is really surprising that it actually did after all the years that it has been inactive. I was told there is currently no water and electricity and I know many places are affected, so I pray that they recover soon.

Review: Vivid and Vogue Automatic Hair Curling Iron

Hair can always make or break a look. It doesn't matter how good the makeup is if the hair is not styled. To glam-up every look I really like a curly hairstyle. With that being said, I have been obsessed with hair curling irons. I really don't intend to add more but due to a repetitive ad I got myself a Vivid and Vogue Automatic Hair Curling Iron. 


What is it? 
Vivid and Vogue Automatic Hair Curling Iron from the name itself makes instant automatic curls. This brand is said to be from Taiwan. 


Packaging

It comes in a thick pink box. First thing lasts, it looks expensive as the box looks like an expensive product for me. The curling iron comes with an instruction manual (in chinese), 2 pink hair clips and a rat tail comb.

Experience
I seriously already have a functioning automatic hair curler already but I still bought Vivid and Vogue. This is because the other one I have is meant for short hair and I can't use it. I gave Vivid and Vogue hair curler a chance as the long iron seems like it will work wonders on my hair.

So I love the ease of using this curling iron and there is no need to do the manual twirling myself. There is some hair curling iron they call Kiss Instawave which they said to be similar to this one but it is expensive so it's great to gave an alternative. At first I had some difficulty in curling but after a few tries I got the hang of it. It was the easiest and fastest curling I have done ever! I was done in practically 20 minutes, whereas I will usually take 1 hour to finish as I have pretty thick hair.


How I use it?
1. Just gather an inch or so of your hair.
2. Insert the lower portion of your hair along the plastic stakes of the curler base.
3. Press one of the rotator, either clockwise or counter- clockwise and it will automatically gather and curl your hair towards the iron.
4. Hold for a couple of seconds (I leave mine for 20 seconds as my hair is chemically treated but you can use it longer based on your own best judgement.)
5. Slowly pull the curler downwards. 
6. Easiest curls, DONE!


How much and where to buy?

P300 from shopee


What I love

I can use it on my long hair
Automatic curls with just a click of a button
Affordable
Fastest and easiest curl I have done
Long lasting curls


What I don't

No temperature indicator. This is important as my hair is sometimes more sensitive than normal to heat when it's newly colored and I like adjusting the heat.

Overall~ 
I honestly love and recommend Vivid and Vogue Automatic Hair Curling Iron right now and I don't see myself using my other irons for a while. The ease of use is really something for me and I like how it heats fast too despite not having the temperature indicator. Hope it can last long on me!

What I've watched from Netflix so far

Rainy days is usually the time when I indulge with Netflix. I have been given this account on a whim as I keep on asking boyfie to download random series before. Anyhow what have I been watching in Netflix lately you say?

My watch later list is getting longer and longer eh? However the naive me keeps on watching my favorite dramas on repeat!!

A love so beautiful
A Love so Beautiful
My ultimate favorite drama is this chinese drama. I think I have watched this like 5-6 times already and I still want to watch. I have related to the little girl's persevere love to her crush. I really love everything about this drama even the supporting cast are great and they have done a good job in adding color to the story.

I find this good read about the relationship of the 2 protagonist. I still love Jiang Chen nonetheless.


Love Alarm
Love Alarm
This drama will have it's 2nd season soon and and the story is based on a webtoon. I have fallen in love with Song Kang. He is just drop dead good looking. The plot takes place in an advanced time wherein you can use a phone app to know if someone is in love with you within a 10m radius.


My ID is Gangnam Beauty

I watched the first episode of this then stopped before watching it again to finish the whole series. I wasn't fond of the protagonist but the story line is cool. I like how the guy has chased the girl on this drama unlike the usual wherein the girl gives more attention. Cha Eun Woo of Astro looks so gorgeous AF too. 


He is Psychometric
He is Psychometric
This is an idol laden kdrama. The start had me by surprise as there was some murder going on and a very hideous one. The story revolved around Jinyoung who tries to find the hidden

King's Avatar
King's Avatar

Another intriguing chinese drama, and it includes Yangyang! I watched his earlier hit, Love 020 and this one didn't disappoint too. I like the whole story of how he recruited the best team mates and how he got back from playing after retiring out of his own will. And yes, Yangyang too looks so hot in this drama, as always.

Overall~ 
Okay! I know, I know. It is all in korean and chinese but hey! My list has Sponge bob Squarepants too and I also included american series like Once upon a time but I haven't gotten the chance to start watching it yet. The number of episodes puts me off. But Im'ma try this 2020! I got a lot of time for it too.

What I got from Lazada and Shopee 11.11 Sale

Hey guys and gals! I just want to drop by and say hello. I am not marked safe from the Lazada and Shopee 11.11 Sale sadly. Lol, but kidding aside I want to share what I got from the recent sale. There were so much discount vouchers and cashback that I cannot really spend the day without buying anything. Oh yes I am such an easy target for the big sales. The thing is, I am not even qualified for COD for the Shopee deliveries due to 2 returned parcels I had this month. **Sorry sellers!** I wasn't at home during the deliveries or I was sleeping.

I think I had a post about this before but before any online shopping I make sure to not just use a voucher or promo code but to also use Shopback. It's great because I get up to 30% cashback from shopping in Lazada, Shopee, Foodpanda and Booking.com which are sites that I frequently use. They even offer P100 sign-up bonus. Yay.



My Bottle Water Cup with pouch
An impulse buy, plastic is not so thick but for P50, I can't complain. IT has a free pouch which I find cute too.



Mini Led Light Air Humidifier

This is for an exchange gift. I hope the recipient will love using this! I included an essential oil in jasmine too.

Vivid and Vogue Automatic Curling Iron

Curiosity has caught the best of me again. Despite having a lot of hair irons I still got my own Vivid and Vogue curler. Video Review coming up soon.


Stainless Steel Thermos/Vacuum Bottle
More of an impulse buy too, but this seems pretty decent for the price. The gold color adds to the flair.


Egg Sitter Gel Flexible Support
I saw this being recommended in a freelancer group. I thought of giving this a try because it says it can ease back pain due to long sitting. It is very affordable and somehow I think it works. I don't get the body aches I often complain anymore. Cool. I also gave this out as a gift because I know it'll be something that they can really make use of.

Cuties Catz Cat Food

I got a kilo of my cat's favorite food for only P90 per kilo. My friend says this is already cheap, so me and my cats are thankful. The seller even allowed me to choose flavors. They have seafood, tuna and tuna/shrimp flavor.


Creamsilk Triple Keratin Rescue Conditioner
You know how much I love this hair conditioner. Now I can't literally live without it! My hair is so stiff when I don't use this baby. I availed them again in bulk both in gold and pink for scent variety. 



Realme XT
This was not part of my plan, but my boyfriend was eager for me to get a new unit. Yikes. This guy is bad for my budgeting endeavors. at first I want to purchase the Realme 5 Pro 8gb variant but they did not included it in the sale so I got this instead. It was the maximum sale price I can ever get because I used 2 vouchers! Lucky. 

Overall~ 
 I really have a lot of  stuff in my cart right now. This is bad as there is an upcoming 12.12 sale next. Shoot. Anyways, thank you or visiting my humble space in the world wide web. I really hope to update my Instagram often too. Do follow me at: @kvchien

What are you planning to buy on the next Lazada and Shopee sale? Share it with me in the comments!

Review: Pax Moly Dr Whitening Perfect Cream 2

Hello November! It's my birthday month, I haven't posted much and I'm struggling with a lot of things especially Youtube. I have filmed a few videos and I only need to edit it out. Now for today, I will be sharing my favorite whitening cream at the moment. It's Pax Moly Dr Whitening Perfect Cream 2. 

Pax Moly says:

Packaging

The product comes with a box. Inside is a plastic white tube with floral design and a golden cap. Ain't it lovely?! I love the blend of colors. 

Experience
Pax Moly Dr Whitening Perfect Cream 2 smells like a lightly scented cream. It looks like whipped cream. It is a not runny and the magic comes when you blend it in. It releases water droplets making the blending and cream absorption so much easier. It is like moisturizing and prepping the face all at once with the addition of sunblock properties, It also has pore blurring properties which is why I love it under make-up, I can also use it alone for no make-up days.

Dr. Whitening Perfect Cream 2 doesn't drip into the eyes like literally! I swam and it didn't hurt my eyes at all. I like how  it also turns into a watery texture which feels light and moisturizing for light not-so-cold days.

How much and where to buy?

P320 for 70g from their authorized distributors and resellers.


What I love

Very light-weight
Highly moisturizing
Water droplets that pops out while blending
Affordable
Doesn't sting when I used it on the pool
Absorbs easily

What I don't
Nothing I can mention

Will I repurchase? 
YES. I alternate this with the original Pax Moly Dr. Whitening.

Overall~ 
Pax Moly Dr Whitening Perfect Cream 2 is a good multi-purpose product that does a long way. I bet I can use this not just this Ber-months but also this coming summer! Check-out my video below for the product in action.
