結婚第2週年東京之旅- Happy 2 years wedding anniversary

19/10~24/10: 六天日本為你準備，我們今年的結婚週年紀念10月20日就是跟老公在日本東京慶祝， 19號早上出發到了日本後，一心只想輕鬆素顏的準備最佳狀態拍照留下今年美好的回憶，及準備誤打誤撞而有驚喜的心情

We've spent 6 days in Tokyo to celerate our wedding anniversary.

The actual date of our wedding anniversary is 20 Oct, we've started our trip the day before, and make the best preparation I could to settle down first and hope to take lots of good photos, just to make sure every moment is beautifully memorable and also the upcoming surprises.

20/10- 第二週年快樂！ 我們去的地方有東京駅，銀座，築地

Happy 2 years at Chiyoda, Ginza and Tsukiji

我們找到的驚喜有從東京駅去銀座的路途找到了老公英文名字的酒吧，

還有是從銀座一路的走去築地路途中休息的下午茶地方： 浜離宮恩賜庭園

On our way from Chiyoda to Tsukiji, we've found Nelson's Bar which really made my husband happy.  Then as we set off from Ginza and walking to Tsukiji, we had a traditional japnaese afternoon tea at Hama Rikyu Garden.

21/10- 淺草，秋葉原

我期待了很久的是人生第一次著上和服的一天， 每天還在想像自己第一次穿的和服會是甚麽樣子，我這個再貪靚的女漢子除了擁有的口紅及內衣可以接受粉紅色，幾乎真的沒有喜歡的粉紅色，竟然老公在場之下就為我選了粉紅色的和服

21/10- Asakusa, Akihabra

I've been waiting for the moment of my first time kimono experience for so long that I imagine everyday of what my first kimono would look like all the time.

I'm quite a boyish girl, so my acceptance to pink was limited for lipsticks and lingerie items only.  But Nelson picked me a kimono in pink, oh my god!

在淺草雷門寺，我也被當是明星的一樣被捉住一起合照

At the temple, people took photos of me like I were a celebrity.

老公也替了一個穿了和服的台灣美女拍照，我看得出她真的很喜歡老公為她拍照， 如果美女早一點告訴我，我當然樂意給您們合照一幅好看的照片，還要影得好看才能放美女走吧（在香港的我，一定會吃醋到跟老公吵架到地震了，哈哈）
Nelson helped a beautiful stranger to take photos of her in kimono and it was an obvious instinct I have was she liked Nelson to take pictures for her, in fact probably more. If she asked, I'm really most happy to take photos of them both for her and it has to look good before she leaves (Normally in HK, I would've been so mad at Nelson and argue until the ground shakes)

交還了和服後，我和老公就一起到了秋葉原，從那一刻開始，我要shopping的精神病開始發作了，老公就在這一天很有效率的買好了給同事們的手信，我會在下一篇分享我為自己買了甚麽，希望亦能給大家分享我買了給同事，閨蜜們的生日禮物，手信吧

After returning the kimono, Nelson & I headed off to Ahkibara. From then, my shopping disorders are coming up.  Nelsin also managed to make his souvenir shopping very efficient for his coworkers. Well, for me, I will share shoppings in my upcoming blog entries.

22/10- 澀谷，原宿，新宿

第4天，到我大出血了！ 不停不停買買買，但全部都是給同事 & 閨蜜們的手信，老公亦當然找到能滿足自己的地方，包括是他最愛的Under Amour (澀谷）同Nike store （原宿）,拍照了店中display 的23號 (我不知代表甚麽的）

22/10： Shibuya, Harajuku and Shijuku

On the 4th day, I couldn't stop shopping, but it was all for coworkers and bffs.  Luckily, Nelson has found his favourite shops Under Armour (Shibuya) and Nike (Harajuku) where he took the no.23 (Got no idea what no.23 stands for though).

而我就在澀谷與原宿之間的公園中的市集找到了我自己的滿足感： 市集找到的禮物為手信

For me, I've found a flea market in a park betwwen Shibuya and Harajuku for my own satisfaction, bought 2 necklaces as souvenirs (one for Jen and one for my mother in law).

在新宿的夜景下，我影了一段小片是我們22～23/10 去過的地方， 片在instagram 可觀看到，enjoy!

This photo is of Nelson and I in Shijuku.

Got most of the highlights in the video I've uploaded in instagram, so enjoy!

24/10： 臨回香港的最後一刻前，我和老公就爭取了最後在日本的一刻參觀在我們酒店對面的晴空塔，我們還去了晴空塔裡的水族館，真的很近距離的跟企鵝合照，很可愛呀！！我會努力完成晴空塔的影片給大家分享吧！

24/10- Just before leaving vack to Hong Kong, Nelson and I spent the very last moment to look around the Sky Tree Tower as this attraction is just opposite side of our hotel.  In the Sky Tree tower, we've also took a tour in the aquarium of where I find very cute penguins.

A video of our visit in the Sky Tree is in progress, will work hard on it.

Coup D'eclat Ampoules 妝前補濕精華

There are some facts about why I need this product to secure long lasting makeup daily.  I highly recommend those who may have dehydrated skin or having issues with foundation getting oxidized.

- In real life, I am a front line staff in a luxury department store.  Therefore, the first impression from customers come from grooming standards.

- I am a combined skin person, dehydrated at worse.  My skin condition is pretty much affected by the atmosphere and pressure, my makeup fades off by the end of the day and I tend to look awfully tired by day end.  

- In Summer, my skin becomes oily.  In Winter, my skin becomes coarse/dry.  So basically, when my skin is under pressure, super ugly acnes will pop out and bother me!

大家好, 這次給大家介紹的是一個自己每天個人必用的妝前精華, 我亦用我最大的誠意推薦此用品給缺水皮膚的女生或本身對粉底氧化後的問題不滿做一個了結吧!

我的職業是一個在名貴高級的百貨公司的禮賓部 (前線人員之一), 所以客人對我的第一印象都會是跟儀容會有直接密切關係的

本身我是混合性皮膚, 最壞的情況就是缺水的皮膚.... 我的皮膚好與壞真的是在乎環境及壓力的高低.  工作時, 差不多下班時就會看見我的妝是疲累中的淡退....

夏天時, 我的皮膚是油性. 冬天時, 我的皮膚會變得乾旱了.... 所以, 只要在天氣及工作的壓力, 醜惡的暗瘡就一定會出沒!!

Each package contains 12 capsules, each capsule are for 1-2 days usage before applying foundation.  I use 1 capsule 1 day... but I'm trying to leave at least 4 for my trip in Tokyo.

每盒有12支capsule, 最多可以每兩日一支，但我是一日一支，但來著去日本東京之旅用途，所以會留下4支旅行時用

After using this product 3 times, I felt satisfied with the result of longer lasting makeup, and my foundation doesn'nt get cakey by the end of day either

用了此產品的感想是，我很滿意是更持久的妝容， 下班時亦沒有浮粉的問題

I don't always have enough time to update my blog frequently, so I can only save time for product recommendation on products that I find effective.

我真的不是常常有時間打博文的，所以我的時間只能推薦我覺得對我來說有效的產品

Review on Taiwanese masks (台灣牌子面膜)

這些都是Sylvia 送給我的面膜, 全部都是來自台灣的!

這裡有兩個不同的牌子- 我的美麗日記&Timeless Truth masks

Timeless Truth 就是Sylvia 所說在台灣最受歡迎的

These are all the beauty masks Sylvia has bought me from Taiwan!

There are 2 different brands- My Beauty Diary and Timeless Truth masks, 

Sylvia told me that the Timeless Truth is the most popular nowadays.

Timeless Truth- 青萍果面膜

有抗衰老, 緊緻的功效

我真的喜歡這面膜的 gel 狀紙面膜, 這面膜的味道我也蠻喜歡,因為我本身就是喜歡青萍果的香味, 還很滿意用的過程感受皮膚能與面膜緊貼的感覺

我很喜歡臨床用這面膜,第二天看見很飽滿光澤的皮膚, 我真的很滿意!

Timeless Truth- Apple Stem Cell & Collagen mask

Characteristics: Antioxidant, Firming

What I love most about this mask are the gel-textured sheet and the scent since I love the smell of green apple as always!  The mask gave me the comfortable feeling I love as I love the tightening reaction between my skin and the mask.

I tend to have the habbit of pampering my skin with masks before I sleep, especially this one since I am very impressed with the result I see the next morning- Radiance!!!

Timeless Truth-魚子精華純芙棉面膜

對抗老化， 幫助疲憊肌膚補充所需能量

對我來說， 這面膜是能日或夜用

但我覺得有最佳效果的用家不是我，反而是老公呢 (老公是中性皮膚）！

為了10月1號叔仔婚禮做主人家的重要角色以最佳狀態喝新人倒的茶，我迫了老公前一晚及早上一起床都要敷一次，因為他說他的要求就是抗皺，給肌膚活力的效果

給他婚禮前的晚上及新郎新娘敬酒前敷了面膜，結果是看見了他肌膚很有光澤，充滿能量的！

Timeless truth: Caviar Rejuvenating Pure Cotton mask

Characteristics: Anti-aging, skin energizer

To me, this mask is applicable both day & night

But from experience, I might not be have the best results after using but Nelson has the instant results after using it.

I've forced Nelson to use this mask just the night before his brother's wedding, Nelson's request was on anti-wrinkle and energizing skin.  Just before the new wed couple reached for us, there was an instant result of the glow on Nelson's skin that I think he was really looking ready to go!!

我的美麗日記- 1 盒16枚面模, 每味道4枚

- 珍珠粉

- 黑珍珠

- 角鯊烯修護保濕面膜

-紅酒多酚煥采面膜

唯一曾未試過的就是角鯊烯修保濕面膜了, 亦是這種之中最喜歡,因為我就是喜歡上班前能保持皮膚有濕潤光澤的妝容,而且做微駐粉底前,充份的保濕功夫都是必須的

My Beauty Dairy masks- 1 carton, 16 pcs (in 4 different flavours)

- Pearl mask

- Black pearl mask

- Squalene restorative mask

- Red wine mask

The only one I haven't tried in my life was the Squalene restorative mask, this one eventually became my favourite in the My Beauty Mask collections.

I love picking up the habit of using this mask before I go to work just for the result of suppleness with long lasting makeup for the day.  Besides, I think it is necessary to keep your skin moisturized as a preparation before taking the Mesowhite injection treatment.

9月小禮物篇/朗朗與美女們的故事- Gifts in September 2016/My stories with my Instragram beauties

這一個月所收的禮物全部都是值得一提的, 這一次的網誌包括了很多不同的精彩的故事, 大至上全部都是跟我instagram 最有關係的...其實我跟Jen 和Sylvia 都是在Instagram 認識的, 中間應該是沒有任何共通認識的朋友, 這一次網誌故事都是關於我跟其他的用戶怎樣成為了好朋友...

I totally felt that every little gift I received this month totally worth blogging, I believe there will be a lot of interesting stories in this blog entry.  Most of the stories are actually closely related to my Instagram in general as it was through Instagram that I've started knowng Jen and Sylvia without any mutual friends between any of us.  Well here's the story of how we all became good friends...

在她們三位美女之中, 我是認識Sylvia 在先, 剛好亦認識了一年了... 第一次是隨機看到她的帳戶就覺得她很漂亮, 亦沒想到她還會追蹤我的新照片, 沒想到一個那麼漂亮的陌生人會不停的找我聊天, 還有用讚美,欣賞的態度來鼓勵我每一件事情呢

Out of Alice, Sylvia  and Jen, the first lady I've started to talk to was Sylvia on Instragram.  It's a year that we've known each other.  I remember it was a very random moment that I found her account and thought that she was beautiful!  I actually never thought of her following back and liking my new updates, in the end, I couldn't even imagine that she would chat with me more than my expectations... and always encourage me with her compliments!

最快樂的事情就是認識了一年後我們終於第一次見面, 還要是剛好我要跟老公慶祝他成功戒煙一週年了, 因為是中秋節,我覺得最快樂的是, 來自台灣的Sylvia 來找我是為了給我們兩夫妻很多快樂的回憶在我們人生, 很多事情真的很值得感激

The happiest thing ever is that we finally met for the first time after knowing 1 year.  In a co-incidence, it's also the first anniversary Nelson has successfully quit smoking.  I just felt that Sylvia has came to celebrate and share this happiness during this Mid-Autumn festival.  Therefore I've got more than I can say to express my appreciation!!

還有還要謝謝老公的同事們為了給老公請Sylvia 下午茶的機會而給他破例為他爭取比平時的時間早了下班, 所以我也有把Sylvia 送我的糖果給他們分享
I should never forget to thank Nelson's coworkers on the special exception they fought for him to finish off work earlier just to treat Sylvia and I the afternoon tea!  So I would share the candies Sylvia gave me to his coworkers, just to show some appreciation in return.

Sylvia 的禮物: 有她親手造的花盤和她說台灣很著名的美肌面膜 (Timeless Truth Mask)... 會捨不得用呢...
Gifts from Sylvia: Preserved flowers and best selling masks in Taiwan (Timesless Truth Mask and My Beauty Diary)... but the Timeless Truth Masks are available in Hong Kong that I don't wanna use them so soon!

我與Alice & Jennifer 的故事: 上一年,我在 My Happy Bird Workshop 看中了一個月亮頸鏈而開始認識Alice 的, 第一次見面時就是因為為了找生日禮物送給Sylvia而到了Alice 參與的市集而見面的, 因為我這個小小粉絲真的很喜歡她造的手作品, 買了禮物之後亦因為星期六日要上班就一直沒有機會交給她的....

Story of Alice, Jennifer and I: Last year, I've found a necklace I liked and started speaking to the admin of My Happy Bird Workshop (Alice).  Tt wasn't long before our first met as I became eager looking for Sylvia's birthday present at the time and looked for the events that My Happy Bird workshop participated- That's how I met Alice.  

Because I've always liked the accessories Alice has made, so I bought her a gift for the next time I visit her.... But as I do need to work on weekends, so I've never got the chance to give her gift...

但同樣今年的3月開始,我在Instagram看見老公帶了我到一個Jennifer 去過high tea 的地方一起吃brunch 而開始在Instagram 聊天... 一路想了很久哪時,亦想表示心意而買了見面禮物而約了Alice 一起收我送她的禮物之後而成為今天的好朋友

In March 2016, Nelson took me to a place for brunch in which Jennifer went for high tea previously, so we've started talking on Instagram.  For those months, we've always been talking about when we could meet.  With my courtesy meeting someone as my first time, I've also prepared my first met present for Jennifer and thought of Alice at the same time, so I've invited Alice to come and have a good time while I give her the present too... After that, we've been good friends from then....

巧合的是我們每次見面都是... 關於一些節日才見面, 第一次見是慶祝回歸, 之後是7夕... 還有這一次是我們的中秋節聚餐及提早慶祝Jennifer 生日.... Alice 送的是貝殼形的鏡,及Jennifer 亦在沖繩買了很可愛的小錢包, 沙瓶,杯墊給我和Alice...
而我, 第一次獻醜送了上次完成了的手作品給她們, 還有是每人都有一朵手造的布玫瑰花給她們

Every time the 3 of us meet are always for some festive reasons.  Our first met was on 1 July Handover, then it was the Chinese Valentine's Day.  This time is for Mid-Autumn Festival.
Gift from Alice: The shell mirror she made
Gift from Jennifer: Cute gifts from Okinawa- Unicorn coin bag, a cup pad and sand bottle

My gifts for them are the accessories I've made and roses in fabric.

朗朗手作品9月篇- (My handcraft accessories Sep 2016)

我的網誌不只會談論關於美容, 時裝, 還有我的手作, 大多數都是送給朋友
My blog wouldn't be just all about beauty, fashion alone as I will also include the DIY accessories I made for my friends.

這一次我想為大家介紹就是為了9月之星們做了的生日禮物吧, 背後的主題就是中秋節下午茶 亦有一部份是送給一直在 Instagram 支持我的一部份朋友, 希望您們會喜歡
This time, the DIY accessories are made for September babies as their birthday presents, with the theme as Mid Autumn Festival x Afternoon Tea together.
However, not all are just for September babies, but I will never forget some of you who have been supporting me through Instagram.  Hope the receipents like what I made.

下一次再做手作品, 我該會做砌圖形首飾和匙子就是送給我部門裡的四位男同事Dennis, Eric, Luis and Jeremy, 至少我可以準備送給我team 的同事們的聖誕禮物,
Wait until next time, I think I will make more puzzles and spoons ready for my coworkers, Dennis, Eric, Luis and Jeremy.  I think maybe as a preparation on Christmas present for our Concierge team.

之前我送給暑期工的temp 們的禮物不是不想給您們, 而是他們在我們公司時間很短, 我也沒有怎麼的付出比你們多, 所以只能做些一小禮物, 讓他們過的暑假更美好
Previously, I've made these little accessories for our Summer temp staff, and not ready for you guys, but the thought of how you guys looked after them in a short period of time made me felt I didn't make enough efforts.  So, the least I could do was to make them these accessories, just to make sure they will enjoy the rest of their Summer holiday.

同事們, 請期待一下我會為你們做好的手作,希望我完成後可把您們的小禮物刻您們的名字, 表視我對每一位同事的心不會有比誰多與少

My beloved Concierge team, you may anticipate what I will make for you all next time.  

Hope I can engrave your names on my little gifts for you guys to make it all special for you all.

I'm doing all I can to show all of you are specially to me, equally!

為了強調紫色的魅力, 我一定會選擇代表我的口紅 Christian Louboutin Velvet Sheer #310 Ronron, 跟我的名字一樣的口紅

9月8號- 補慶祝了我們的相識拍拖第三週年, 吃了韓國菜, 又吃了Brunch 的晚餐
雖然我們拍了拖只有一年就結婚, 結了婚都差不多兩年, 但誰都說夜蒲找到真愛與及一見鍾情走到終老的是不可能都不必擔心，是因為我們誠實謙厚上進去做人，一起學會同苦同甘去讓對方生活變得好
8 Sep: Belated celebration to our 3rd year anniversary for the day we met and the day we got together- Had Korean cuisine for lunch and a Brunch dinner.
We got married after we've only dated 1 year, now nearly 2 years we've married.   Anybody would say it's impossible to find true love inside the night club with in love at first sight that can lead to a lifetime commitment...But we don't feel wary as our life will eventually get better when 2 people are staying humble sincerely to walk through the worse or the better together.  

新髮型- 9月篇- New haircut Sep 2016

上一次剪髮已經是6月了, 劉海也長到有點不好看,不舒服呢,
I had my last haircut since June, but right now, the fringe is getting too long.  I don't feel it looks good nor comfortable.

這一次我會修剪我的髮像去年的那樣子, 暫時這都是我最喜歡的髮型呢.
This time, I will have my haircut like the one last year.  It's my best haircut and my favourite haircut!

這一次我都是一樣找我多年的髮型師Tim, 我最喜歡的髮型都是他替我修的, 而且我覺得他都是我的好朋友之一了, 所以我也介紹了我的老公找他修髮

Again, I looked for Tim (my hairdresser for many years) to cut my favourite hairstyle.  Besides, Tim became one of my good friends, so, I also referred my hubby Nelson for haircuts.

希望親愛的讀者們會喜歡Tim為我修的新髮型

Hope my dearest readers will like my haircut
