Holika Holika Aqua Fantasy Review!

Brand new Holika Holika Aqua Fantasy Review! Photos will be up soon! 

One of my favourite products to date! IT is refreshing and the scent is amazing! and a bonus is that if you put it in the fridge it is simply awesome! It has a cooling feel to it when applied to your skin with no irritation leaving your skin supple and well moisturized. Never sticky!  Highly recommended!

July 28th 2013: Tsim Sha Tsui

Tsim Sha Tsui! 

Today spent most of my time wandering around the malls of Tsim Sha Tsui! I haven't been to Tsim Sha Tsui before so thought it was worth a go before I leave to the UK. But as it seems for a Teenager this is not the right place to go to unless you have a high budget ($$$$$). The range of clothing stores are endless with American Eagle, 6ixty8ight, H&M which are the most affordable to Chanel, Fendel, Dolce and Gabbana in the higher price range. Although it was a new experience it isn't one that I would go back, especially on a Sunday.  

Tsim Sha Tsui feels different from the usual Hong Kong. It almost seems like you are in New York with  so many plazas and the layout is a little different. Tsim Sha Tsui is good if you are looking to get our of the usual! Its fresh,  modern and international. 

If you are looking to buy more affordable clothing you may try Causeway bay and Mongkok who have loads of street shops that offer cheap clothing sometimes from $100 for 3 or you can bargain at the price. But be warned some of these stores do not have airconditioning!! You could also go to Maple which is growing day by day spreading to almost all areas of HK! Very affordable and good quality clothing. They even sell makeup now!

Room for Thoughts:

The Turn of the 20th Century seems to be the death of our creativity and in some ways our humanity. Have our ability of though, imagination and data collecting been damage by our own creation of technology? Think of the pyramids and rosenquist and even the famous old (curved) buildings of Hong Kong. These beauties were created years before technology was invented however till this day they still remain to be the most sophisticated architecture in the world. We still cannot build buildings like that. Have be become dependent on technology? The Egyptians adapted to their environment  and built buildings completely ot of sand and it still stands today. We are evolutionising the world and we are burning fuels that are destroying our environment , have be become so blind that we have become selfish?

Room for Thoughts: 

The Average Human, whether it be a he or she, cant help him/herself from being nosy. Whether it is someone texting on their phones of if your casually observing the other party, their pupils slowly move, they are constantly at battle with themselves. Yet it becomes an obsession to look... to sneak a peak.

Korean Beauty Haul~

I haven't always been a fan of Korean Beauty products but for the past year or so I have fallen in love with so many brands! Being in Hong Kong they are easily accessible and lucky for me so many new stores have opened such as Innisfree, Etude House, Tony Moly etc. It has truly been fun and interesting. If you want to check my reviews of some popular products check my Beauty Review page above! Products from Korea have been a hot topic lately and there has been a buzz of new customers queuing up for them! As well as this almost all shops give free testers and samples for you to use!
 I have found that most of the products have been successful so if there is a product that you wish for me to review email me or comment!
Before I leave to the UK on my uni adventure I will be posting the best products to bring and for what weather conditions they are best for (and skin troubles)!
