Is up is up... my review for Baviphat Water Up Range is up @ Junipers Journal

A little brief intro on the brand itself - an entry level - medium range top to toe care brand.

Consist of body care, skincare & makeup.

Famous for its cute vege & fruit looking packaging.

The one I got from JunipersJournal was the water up range to replenish moisture for dehydrated skin. It come in cute little paprika looking bottles and because the brand emphasize on using natural ingredient - it smells like vege & fruit too.
For the price of RM 49.90 to Rm 79.90 is definitely something that is good for starter.

How much in Korea? about 30% less O_O .. well taxes, logistic, rental, pretty girls by the counter. Is reasonable right..

It's up !! My guest review is out.. ^_^

Still remember couple of months ago, Isetan was having this "Lucky Bag" thing?

There were couple of Lancome skincare inside the bag..


So I finally make use of my Complimentary Facial Treatment voucher and made a booking yesterday @ Isetan Lancome counter.

This is like my first time going for facial session by a counter brand. What's more, I never really try their product before.

I was lead to an area call beauty zone where each of these counter brand's facial room located. The room is very spacious, well equip and nicely decorated.


Minimal yet elegant design, and of coz you get to try all those products on display ^_^...

Not exactly all but those which is suitable for my skin.

She (sorry I forgot to ask for her name) started off with the cleansing milk to remove the dirt and makeup on my face.

Follow by a double cleansing with the CLARIFYING CLEANSER PEARLY FOAM, then gentle scrub away the dead skin cell with FRESH EXFOLIATING CLARIFYING GEL followed by the steam steam to prep for extraction.

She then applied a serum to my whole face (the only product not available in retail) followed by HYDRATING GEL MASK WITH NATURAL WATER CAPTORS, a hydrating mask for the next 15 mins. Because my skin is so dehydrated, there was some tingling sensation at the inner cheek near the nose area.

After cleaning off the mask, she gently wipe my face with the HYDRATING LOTION and applied the GÉNIFIQUE YOUTH ACTIVATING CONCENTRATE (me requested to try) before moisturizing my skin with the EXTRÊME SOOTHING MOISTURIZING CREAM-GEL.

The session ends with the relaxing shoulder massage - that I really think it shouldn't have ended..^_^

See my face after the facial, much brighter and more radiance.. O_O


I never thought that a facial by a counter brand can be this good. Definitely will re-visit. (Actually have already booked my next session ^_^)

Guess what, all these for only RM 120 for one session. If you purchase 3 times, you will get the 4th session for FREE... which makes it RM 90 per session ONLY..

Interested? Tempting? Quickly get to your nearest Lancome counter and book your session now !!

Yeah is steamboat time !!

Since i took half day off on Thursday to replace my driving license, I head over to this steamboat shop for lunch.

Yes - lunch!!

Few weeks back, Everyday.com.my was having this super 60% deal for Tian Xiang Hui Wei Steamboat.

What's so special about this steamboat?

You don't know unless you try it. We always go for this clear soup & tomyam broth when it comes to steamboat.

But here they have the most traditional broth from the high land of inner Mongolia that contains 60 types of herbs - I tried asking what are those ingredient - she smile and say "secret".


From the picture, we can see there's lots of garlic (really a lot), leek, red dates, sesame, bay leaves, "dong gui" & wolfberries.

Both spicy and clear broth are the same, they added in dried chillies to make it spicy.

Each set of utensils are sterilizes and wrap individually - very clean ^_^. You see there is only a pair of chopsticks and one ladle (because the waitress will be the one serving the food for you).

We ordered one serving of "Sakura pork" (fully imported from Japan) & also one serving of 1st grade beef (fully imported from New Zealand).

We also ordered a hand made "prawn glue", half a portion of cheesecake, mongolian ball, tian xiang ball, taiwanese soup dumpling (like xiao long bao).

We were also served with unlimited refill of their signature tea - tian xiang tea which compliments the soup served. Because the soup is boiled with herbs and tends to be heaty, the tea on the other hand help to reduce the heatiness.

The bill total up to RM 154 minus the RM 130 value of coupon purchase from everyday.com.my, we paid an additional RM 24 for the meal.

We were also given a RM 50 voucher for our next visit - applicable Mon - Fri 1pm -4pm (lunch hour)


* They also have private rooms that can accomodate 70 pax - ideal for family reunion, private functions and company dinner.

OMG!!! - Tell a girl from Ipoh What's good food about...^_^

"Tons of glorious food. *mops drool up* If the thought of Amazing Race-style challenges while savouring the best of Malaysian cuisine doesn’t get you excited yet...."
