I gotta slap myself awake for actually leaving my blog hanging for a year~ oh my god~~ I think I gotta put up a self reminder + Motivation on my wall to push myself & update often~
Will continue my blog back with my experience with Althea. Ever since Althea had launched, I've been always visiting their webpage, but during that time I see no purpose to get any of their products. After I've went to Australia(study purpose), I realized that Asian products in Aussie is very very expensive, I couldn't even get my hands on them because of the price. Once I knew I'm coming back, I went to the page to get some essential beauty products I can bring back to Aussie.
Products sold in Althea are 100% Authentic products from Korea so do not worry if you would get a fake product as it is 100% safe to use. Not only that, Their price are cheaper than retail price! so why pay more when you can save more & still get the same product.
Because i got it during the Ramadan season, their box is in Ramadan theme, which also makes a good present if you are getting for someone during the Festive season.
Their packaging is very neat ,all items are wrapped with bubble wrap to assure that the original packaging of the items are not smashed and of course to make sure the items wont move around during the shipment. They event included sample & some voucher to give out during Hari Raya~
These are the items i got from Althea and it only cost RM300 for ALL OF THESE! worth it! I will do a full review for each product soon.
I bet every girls out there wanna be fashionable. girly, be fabulous all the time. Have you ever thought of just wearing clothes that looks nice doesnt make it all? What if I tell you that you look absolutely AMAZING, but the moment you pull out your lipbalm from your bag, its a total turn down because it doesnt fit your look~ Here's the latest Trendy Fashionable cool looking lipbalm you can ever find! (ok i know the opening intro is like bullshitting, but i totally love this product ><!)
Ok.. the real reason i wanted this product so desperately is because of Mariko-sama ~><! i admit it~
well short info about her, she is the ambassador of Chulip & she was once an AKB48 member(now you shall just go google & search Shinoda Mariko)
Chulip Ambassador: Shinoda Mariko
Question:
1.Why is it called Chulip?
Chu means kiss in japanese, pretty much the sound it makes when you wanna kiss, and lip.. I do not need to explain lip right~
2. What make it different from other lipbalm
Of course the shell of the lipbalm shows everything~ tunlike other lipbalm that comes in a stick or tube form, this is a dome form, which you dont need to swirl up & down & easy application. Also this cute lil thing can be use as decorative items. You can decorate & give your friends & Family a Limited Edition Lipbalm of your own ^^.
3. How is the application?
Very moisturizing & fragrant. I've been using for 2 days now and Im pretty satisfy with it. Moisturizing ingrdients of Olive oil, Macadamia Nut Oil & Roseship Oil is added into the fomular which makes it super moisturizing & not greasy. The fragrant is abit strong that it feels like applying perfume on your lip. (P/S: I do not suggest you to apply it before eating~)
4.What flavor do they have?
Currently they only have 4 flavors sold in Malaysia
Pink : Paris Perfect Memories - Rasberry, Peach and Vanilla
Peach : NY, Brilliant my way - Apple Ginger and Rose Tea
Green : Nordic, Fancy Nostalgia - Orange, Lime & Mango
Purple : Arabian, Floral Shower - Rose Geranium and Clove

I believe it has been 2 years i did not blog... or at least did a proper blog. Must slap self to be more hardworking. Will try to update every 2 days to clear up back logs ><!!
I shall start 2015 blog with not the 1st shoot of the year, but the 3rd shoot instead lol~ Because it was my very 1st yolo shoot..like literally YOLO. So I saw my friend Mushroom was looking for a cosplayer for Valentine shoot, and so my curiosity made me dropped into the HUGE hole. Mush say she is looking for a Maki (a character from Lovelive) for the shoot, after asking some detail I agreed to them... WHY DID I EVEN AGREED?! HOW?! Lol~~I gotta rush out the costume in 1 week for the shoot, but i took 3days to finish it.. cause im lazy XD!!!! but I did a very very Fantastic job for the costume! (also I did 2 costume for the shoot), 1st time spending money on pretty laces & the effect was soo pretty XD! The Version for this costume requires lots of "Happy Valentine" painting.. & so I painted 2 huge logo & 4 times Happy valentine.. But I'm very very proud of the work i've done.
Costume 1
costume 2
p/s: I did 2 costume because 1 is for my friend
This is the 1st time I cosplay a character I've never tried before, I did not even have the wig to try on before I go for the shoot. I literally imagine the outlook with a very yolo makeup, went to the location, only get to try on with the wig. Thanks to my beautiful Vivien Onee-chan who kindly borrowed me her wig, I only manage to cos this character~ <3 I hope I did well for Maki, at least i think i did great for now ><!

Well....I'M SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING! ><!!!
Almost a year I did not do a proper update... OAO! Shall do a quick summary on half of my 2014~
ok~ so Cosplay 1st~
This year I did not cosplay much due to Time management with my college work. Because is my final year, I wanna focus on it more. I do still cosplay but mostly are done costumes (either I did it long ago/buy from taobao)
so my 1st cosplay is during January forVBG~ Kinda speed the costume out 1night before the event(last minit ppl ><!) Used 3 hrs to finish up so+- got imperfection somewhere...
Because the venue was kinda new & the event area is big with less ppl, me andthe photographers kinda did a mini shoot session. But during the whole event, my eyes got infection@@ so I didn't last long in my costume and I gotta take off my lenses

I know each people have different opinion, honestly, you can say it out or people wont understand. If you have grudge on me/dislike me being near you, tell me dude! ALSO!

Its been long since i touch my blog. Was once sooo active updating, but now.... haiz... so lazy XD!
Currently I've started my intern, working in Monica Quen Damansara.
kk~ short update until here..XD!
Last year I closed down one of my Blog: Hot Chocolate because I did not have time to manage two blogs,so I decided to close down Hot chocolate & maintain this blog for all uses of personal, Cosplay, Review etc~
Due to college Purpose, I'm reviving Hot chocolate. My lecturer wants us to open a blog for our Homework as it will be easy for them to check our work & also easy for us to arrange our portfolio in the future. I already have 3 blog, so I do not want to open another new one instead i revive my old one, also because this blog was used to put my fashion & homework stuff before so i'll just keep it update.
As for this Blog : Elyon Journey Of Life will still be used for all my personal stuff, cosplay, review etc~ It will not be closed down. I actually post more on this other blog but i will try to maintain balance on both sides so readers can check out both of my blogs from time to time.
Also, I've changed both of my blog layout for a new look.. Photo banner will temporary still remain until i got a better photo XD!
Please keep looking out for my blog as i'll be more active on blogging from today onwards. I'll not slck off like before
I was glad when i heard Koji is going to do a 2nd workshop for Dolly Wink. Last year When I know about the news, it was already to late to sign up also I had Cosplay Event During the same day. At 1st i thought it will be just a simple hang around and stuff, but i remember reading a post about the work shop last year, IT WAS SO GOOD. This year I finally got the chance to join this Workshop it was A sucess and i Would like to to say "お疲れ様" to allthe stuff and also Ogawa-san&Mikano-san that flew from japan for this workshop.
Actually i did not took many picturesof the workshop cause i met few of my cosplay friends and we started chatting (actually more of gossiping) XD!! The event started a lil boring cause I personally dislike slideshows, but I do learn more about the history &products of Koji and makes me wanna support their product more.
My 1st eyelashes was from Koji Spring heart series. I Love it somuch! it looks natural! But because ,its my 1st lashes, i did not know how to take care of it so it spoiled. Then I tried Using Dolly wink Products (Review from previous blog post). at 1st the price were shocking~so i always wait for it to be on discount ><!! Most important lesson~ All Koji's Fake eyelashes are Handmade~
Back to today's workshop, When we walk in, We saw the table line up wif baskets of make up products. (p/s: See the eyelash Curler there? It Is Extremely GOOD! Hosnestly! It does curl our lashes up to the max)
During the slideshow, we were introduced to their old& new products
This is one of Koji's New Product, Lash Concierge. This line of product is focusing on female that wanted to put fake lashes to look pretty but also not too dramatic at the same time. As we all know, Dolly wink eyelashes is more fora dramatic ,kawaii look. For this, they tone it down and also called it the Natural Fake eyelashes. For each number,they got a percentage written at the side. It is use to indicate how natural the lashes will be~
So I always say Japanese are genius! because some ppl may not suit a certain design of fake lashes, Koji actually did a tester for ppl to test it on before they buy it. This is very very considerating~ Also this is handmade too XD!
After The slideshow, We finally had our hands on the product for testing. They were kind for us to test their new Lash Concierge. I choose number 8 for a natural but slightly dramatic look. But to me, it still looks natural. LOVE IT TO MAX! KOJI! PLS PUT IT ON SELL ASAP!
Because I used to put fake lashes, I did it before they started teaching the tutorial~ Oops~ They also teach on how to put on the bottom fake lashes,how to clean them,store them and how to draw eyebrow, I appreciate those tips and lesson.
Last but not least, Thank you for all the Door Gift. I Really love it!
