GUIDE ON SHOPPING FOR ASIAN BEAUTY PRODUCTS IN MALAYSIA

Hi Asian beauty products,

Here is a shopping guide for Asian Beauty products in Malaysia.

If you are coming to Malaysia or having overlay in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia you might be interested to shop for Asian cosmetics or skincare products in Malaysia because like many people said, it is a shopping paradise because everything is cheap here.

shopping guide for Asian Beauty products in Malaysia


It isn't the same thing for us who doesn't earn much but well...

I actually put up this guide as a request so I hope that you will find this helpful.  Since I cannot afford to travel to Kuala Lumpur often because of reasons(money problem&the distance of 8 hours away),  I hope for your understanding.

If you are in Kuala Lumpur, you can actually find most of the popular drugstore places for Asian brands.  Most of shopping places are in popular shopping malls such as the Midvalley Megamall, One Utama, Paradigm, Pavilion, Suria KLCC, Sunway Pyramid.  Another shopping place are Queensbay in Penang and Suria Sabah Mall which is in Sabah.

There are information counters in all those shopping malls where one can ask for the direction for the shop. Those shopping malls opened from 10am to 10pm so shop all you want. It is just most malls are really very crowded during weekends XD so becareful with your things.



In Every shopping Malls

Daiso-Best Japanese place to shop for RM5.90(price increased).  I have been to the one in Pavillion, Midvalley(2 floor) and Sungai Wang are really big.  Konjac sponge, silicon mask, decant spray bottles, snacks are some of the stuff worth buying.


Watsons- This is Asian drugstore where you can find many varieties of Taiwanese brands, Korean and Japanese brands.  Each Watsons has different kind of brands depending on the size of that outlets.  Some of the brands are in the lowest shelves so look everywhere for them XD. They have house brand as well.  Do check the link for the list of full brands available in Watsons since there are too many of them for me to list them all down here.

However, there are some brands that are only available online such as Cosrx(only saw two of the products in there) because of the limited amount of products. There are also some brands(Canmake, Peripera, Marjolica Marjoca) that are not available online but they available in Watsons outlets.

Hada Labo, Naruko, My Beauty Diary, My scheming, Himalaya neem products, Mediheal Line friend, Dr.Check Hydrocolloid, Miacare hydrocolloid acne patches, Ellips for hair, Mandom Bifesta cleansing water, Coni beauty jelly mask, Leaders sheet mask, Sexy look sheet mask, Lovemore sheet masks, Kinohitmisu health products, Liese hair products, Moist Diane Japanese hair product, Mediheal sheet masks, Freshel are some of the products that you can check it out. As for makeup,  Koji Dolly Wink, Kiss Me, Canmake, Ma Cherie, Senka, Tsubaki, Peripera lip ink and Clio are some of the brands.


Guardian-This is another popular drugstore that has a lot of brands that are exclusive to them.  So, always do go into Guardian to check and compare the prices with Watsons for that extra saving XD.
They also have their own house brands.

List of all their exclusive brands HERE

Kailijumei jelly lipstick, Choonee, Mentholatum(lip balm), Paladio and etc.

Himalaya Herbal Healthcare- this is a quiet shop which feels really healthy and so mostly people are afraid to walk in.  However, I said to walk in and find that Neem capsules and some of the Aryuvedic herbs which are available in their outlets and not in Watsons outlets or Guardian outlets.  However, one might have to ask a few outlets as it is always sold out.  I like their Neem mask pack and their Neem cleanser.

Sasa Malaysia- one of the biggest Sasa is in Midvalley so here you can find a lot of products as well.  Mediheal, Dr.Young, Dr. Wu, Haruhada, Shills, Kikumasamune, Oozoo, Pupa, Koji, JayJun, Canmake, Kiss Me, Koji Dolly Wink, Kose, Dejavu, B'Liv, Darkness, Son&Park etc

* You could click on the main words to go into the website of the malls. Then, click on the beauty and wellness to look into the shops that you would like to check out.


The Saem Malaysia outlets are in only in Kuching and Miri Sarawak. You can find it in famous online shopping Hermo.MY
Always21-an affordable Korean brand for students. Here is for list of outlets if interested. Also not transport friendly.




I think this is all for the guide.  Enjoy your shopping in Malaysia and let me know if there are any questions.  There are some other shopping malls within walking distance near Pavillion such as Lot10, Sungai Wang and Times Square which you can check them out as well. The structure in Sungai Wang is confusing and there isn't much to shop in there so not mentioning it here. Many of the shops in Times Square are available in Pavillion so I guess it is pointless to make you walk 20 minutes over to that malls XD.


I am not paid for this guide and not affiliated with them.  As of today, there are some companies that did not reply to my request for list of brands in their shop so I couldn't accurately list out everything.

The opinions expressed here are my own and honest as always.

REVIEW ON FIRST COSMETIC MULBIT MEDIST (Vitamin Mist)

Hi beautifuls,

This month, I received First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) from BNT News.

Do you feel the same as I am? I fell for gimmicky products that promises to do something amazing for the skin  but at the same questioned if it will do something. I am a skeptical person but at the same time just do not want to miss something to make my skin..better?  Who don't right?

So here is the First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) review.

 Here is the ingredient lists.

 The box containing the products are really pretty and beautiful.  Inside, there are two bottles. One is the princess looking plastic bottle containing the capsule which look like medicine pills to me.
Another, bottle is a glass bottle to use as mist.

There are four colours that represent different purposes so think of as vitamin water for the face.

Green: Anti-wrinkle
Blue: Skin reproduction
Yellow: Whitening
Pink: Skin condition management


*CAUTION*
Don’t forget to re-open the cap 1-2 hour after closing it to release carbonated gas (if you close it before the tablets are melted, the spray will get ruined due to pressure

The ingredients sure do interesting with ingredients such as trehalose, niacinamide, biotin, hydrolyzed collagen, adenosine, strawberry, lemon, lavender, camellia sinenis , aloe vera, rosemary and citric acid.

I do like the glass bottle since I do like mist which is easy to use.  I use it as mist or with compressed sheet mask depending on my skin condition of the day.  It does stain if the water landed on things with whitish stuff so be careful.  Also make sure to wash the hands if you have any contact with the mist as I do feel like I have layer of soda powder on my hands.

Put warm water into the glass about 2/3 and two capsules and wait for the capsules to just melt.  I do like the satisfaction of seeing the capsules melted colouring the water.  There is some sort of fragrance-the kind of fragrance you get with perfume.  I think artificial smell especially in a skincare products is no longer a popular factor since it does not have any effect in making the products more effective.  Besides, many people find artificial fragrant irritating.  There are some sort of colouring in the capsules.(No idea if the colouring is natural coloring)

The Yellow (Whitening) does provide immediate brightening effect on the skin which lasted a few hours.  I think it does work best before using makeup on the face or as mist to set up the makeup.

The Green: (Anti-wrinkle) is just normal hydration to me since I don't get to use it long enough to see much effect.

The Blue: (Skin reproduction): It hydrates my skin and slight brightening.

I use the Pink: (Skin condition management) I use this capsule the most to see if it helps my acne prone skin.  It helps to calm my skin but not sure if it does anything in clearing my breakouts.

I also tried using them with compressed mask to test the effect and I think it is mostly hydration to me. I can't finish the bottle of the mist alone in a day and keeping it next day does decrease the effect compare to using it immediately after the capsules melted off.

I am not sure if there are much effect at all since I am not used to the strong artificial fragrance and the skin on my face tends to get really irritated from prolong use of fragrance so I guess that is the reason that I am not seeing much effect from using the First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist).

Overall, First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) is a fun Princess looking mist which has interesting concept. It think the product will have better effect on someone that doesn't have problem with fragrance.  Also normal skin type will find the vitamin mist capsules easy to use and cute at that.

Dr. Althea Power Whitening Glutathione Mask 

Dr. Althea Power Whitening Glutathione Mask is a Korea KFDA certification whitening anti-aging dual functional mask, which is researched by Gangnam Theme Dermatology Clinic, Korea. Its efficacies are whitening, moisturizing, calming and detoxification. The main ingredient is Glutathione, which is recognized as the world efficient whitening ingredients. It also has anti-aging and detoxification properties, to help whiten and firm skin. Glutathione whitening effect is 8.5-fold than the Arbutin and anti-aging effect is hundredfold than the vitamin.

The Bio-fiber mask contains no fragrance, no hormones and no heavy metals.

Dr.Althea Power Whitening Glutathione Mask is a hydrogel type mask which is separated into two pieces which makes the hydrogel sheet mask fits my face well and doesn't slide off. The material is like other hydrogel .

The sheet mask is sandwiched between a plastic and pearl paper.

I can't remember if there any scent to it.

The hyrogel sheet mask feels cooling and it does get thinner as time goes by and so it must remove once it is reaches the point of 1 hour or maybe 1hour 30minutes . 1 hour is quite long and the sheet mask probably will be as thin as snake skin by then 😂.

The ingredients inside are mostly brightening ingredients and hydrating the skin at the same time.  It does contain plant extract such as rose, licorice, grape, coconut oil, green tea extract, Artemisia Princeps Leaf Extract, Houttuynia Cordata Extract, jojoba oil, castor oil and yuzu extract.  There are also propolis, Lactobacillus Ferment,Niacinamide, Titanium Dioxide, Glutathione(100ppm),Pearl Powder and Hydrolyzed Collagen which are for brightening the skin😊.

Search on the CosDNA shows all the ingredients are mostly in green and acne causing ingredients are very low in list .  Still check the ingredients for potential allergen since I don't typical react to sheet mask.  You might not be the same as me so do have a look at the ingredient list😶.

I don't really respond much to whitening products especially sheet mask so I guess other than hydration and temporary brightening,  you won't see me rave about the of 'instant magical' effect some people rave about in their reviews about sheet mask.

Overall, Dr.Althea Power Whitening Glutathione Mask is a hydrogel sheet mask if you are willing to splurge on a brightening mask for a special occasion. It does give a better effect in terms of hydration and longer wear duration compared to the usual paper sheet masks.

Dr.Althea Power Whitening Glutathione Mask (35gX5pieces).

BEAUTY NEWS:DASHING ELITE MEN SHAMPOO WAX OUT in JUST 1 WASH For GREAT HEALTHY HAIR

Hi manly people,

Having a great hairstyle is important for guys as a way to show off their personality and the first thing girls notice about a guy! Most guys will use hair styling products which are difficult to wash off.

For a cleaner wash, many will increase the amount of shampoo used, wash their hair a few times just to remove all the hair styling products on their hair which will weaken the hair and could cause hair and scalp problems such as hair loss, itchy scalp, damaged and dull hair.  Daily usage of hair styling products can cause build-up too.

UNBOXING AND SHOP ONLINE FOR ASIAN BEAUTY PRODUCTS AT MOCHI BEAUTE

Hi gorgeous people =) ,

Today I am going to introduce a US based website to shop for your Korean skincare and Asian latest products.  I do know that most readers are from US and complain that shopping from Korea takes forever to reach or it got lost on the way.  Besides, cost of shipping from other country can be saved and allows you to get another product.

So, here is Mochi Beauté which is a new website that I really like.


UNBOXING AND SHOP ONLINE FOR ASIAN BEAUTY PRODUCTS AT MOCHI BEAUTE

So here is some details about Mochi Beauté.

Mochi Beauté is an online asian beauty boutique with a focus on affordable, yet high quality skincare. In the past five years there has been an enormous increase in Western world’s interest in Asian skincare and culture. Mochi Beauté strives to meet the demand and interest by curating the newest products on the asian markets and making them available to consumers in North America. Mochi Beauté gives you the opportunity to shop for the latest hit products in South Korea, Taiwan, and Japan but delivered to your home from a US based retailer, reducing the risk of international commerce and reducing door to door shipping times.

Mochi Beauté care a lot about their customer so you can just send them an email (info@mochibeaute.com) or tag Mochi Beauté on Instagram (@mochibeaute) to let them know if there are products that you want to see them carry.


Fist of all let's discuss about the website, I think the website is friendly user and finding products are just a walk in the park.  There are enough information along with ingredients to make sure that you do know what you are getting.  It is also very colourful and beautiful =) .

As for their customer service, it is top notch.  They take their customer service seriously and you can discuss with Mochi Beauté if you have questions at all. You will feel welcomed in the shop and treated like a customer. How I wish such level of service exist in my country.

Price for the products are affordable in my opinion and not marked up ridiculously like some places.  Their products are really authentic and source from the country of origin.  There are varieties of products that are really nice and not just limited to Korean products.  Many of the brands such as Maskingdom, Klavuu, SkinRx Lab and Beauty Diary are really popular for its quality and effect on the skin.

Mochi Beauté samples


As for the best part of all, Mochi Beauté gives samples to all their customers.  How great is that?  I took the liberty and asked about the samples because I am sure that is something on every customer mind but am shy to ask about it XD .  If not, I am so sorry for sounding like a greedy one trying to make the best out of your shopping.hahahaha.

Let's go into the juicy now.  All orders come with 3-5 Klavuu samples, Japanese flake stickers, at least one small Maskingdom sample mask and a sample bag that contains about 5 mixed samples. All these doesn’t depend on the amount you order.  Here is how it look =)

REVIEW ON DEMETER FRAGRANCE LIBRARY NY MOOMIN PERFUME GEL CUSHION IN ICELANDIC AURORA

😊 How are you? I heard that some places have begin to snow. I hope that it is not too cold?

As for me in Malaysia, it is the end of the year with lots of rains only if it isn't flooded 💓. The temperature is just nice when staying indoors.

Also, it is also beginning to feel like Christmas with year end sales going on😃.  If you do follow Korean beauty trends, BB cushion is not something new.  With many Top western beauty brands jumping into the Korean cushion bandwagon, I find that one unique cushion product is this Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume. 

I was lucky to win the Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume in Icelandic Aurora which is so cute from 0.8L . It is a website which social editor's write their honest reviews on social media about their experience. As long you have a Facebook account or Instagram account, you can be their social editor😀

I don't get any special privilege even when I am a blogger 😅.  So let's jump into review about this Demeter Fragrance library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume in Icelandic Aurora.

First of all,  Demeter is a perfume company from US. Their perfume are really nice and unique.
So combined with the popularity of cushion makeup products, Demeter decided to come up with cushion gel perfume gel.  So here is the Moomin cute character on it.  There are two seasons.  This one I have here is the Moomin character in Icelandic Aurora 😍.  Moomin is stamp on the outside of the case so it doesn't comes off easily.

The Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume is like a mini cushion the size not bigger than my palm making it easy to carry it around.  The case is made from strong plastic and it is really light to carry for easy touch up of perfume😍. No one likes to carry the whole bottle of perfume right?

The perfume is in form of gel inside the cushion.  The Icelandic Aurora scent comes in light blue cushion.  Inside the cushion, there is a mini puff the width of my two fingers😊.  It doesn't have a mirror and in its place, there is a sticker of the Moomin family members.


Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume in Icelandic Aurora smells of fresh wash linen but I guess everyone will have different views on scent since scent is very personal.  The smells isn't strong and it does have few notes.  I find it does last about 2 hours on me.  The smell disappeared once it reaches 3 hours of exposure.  The hours of wear can also depends on your skin and the weather.

Make sure to not leave the perfume in hot places as it will change the smell.  I think it is cool concept since no one will notice that I am actually applying perfume.  People will notice if I am carry atomiser, trying to spray perfume and the sprayed perfume gets everywhere 😖.

The sachets I have here are the refills in different type of scent.

The one notes scents are
👶baby powder
🍞white musk
🍊fizzy navel
🌸sweet baby
👕clean soap.
These are available in form of bottled perfume.

The other three scents are perfume or par fum which last longer.  These are only available in the cushion case.
💙Moomin character (Icelandic Aurora )
💓Moomin papax moomin mama (spicy floral)
💥Snokmaiden (sweet citrus) 

Overall,  Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume is sure an interesting concept, suitable for those on the go and if you don't like carrying a heavy perfume bottle for touch up.  Just make sure not to confuse this cutie pie with the cushion for face😍

Demeter Fragrance Library NY Gel Perfume Moomin gel cushion perfume 2.5g USD12.2 (testerkorea request item)
