Shiseido Tsubaki Hair Products

To start things off, Happy Lunar New Year. Hope everyone had a great New Year (I know I did. 3 dinners in one night. Who doesn't love that T__T )
Long time no beauty post (This time won't be about food, I promise)
I discovered this product first when I went to Hong Kong in the winter of 2010. I wanted to try out a higher end of shampoo considering the fact I've never used anything other than Herbal Essences bought in bulk from Costco lol
Words cannot describe how much I love this shampoo. I actually bought both white and red when I did my shopping but the red one was the first one that I used.
I guess I should elaborate on how I feel about the product since people probably come here for reviews on it
I do have quite oily hair. Ergo I wash it every day. The shampoo and conditioner leaves my hair very soft and I don't even know how to describe it. The feeling is just very clean haha. I would totally recommend this to anyone.
This one is Tsubaki Shining. It is meant for normal to oily hair. The white one is meant for damaged hair (which would be me ehehehe ) Normally, you know that super soft feeling in your hair that you get when you rinse out conditioner? Yeah, I felt that with just the shampoo (conditioner didn't make it extra extra soft or anything though *sadface)

Unfortunately for me, I use up shampoo and conditioner (conditioner especially) super fast. I've already been through like 5 bottles of shampoo and 5 bottles of conditioner already since 2 years ago. They DO sell this set at supermarkets around where I live but it's just ridiculously expensive. I mean, who pays $15.99 for a bottle of shampoo that won't even last that long? That's just insane so that's why I normally get relatives to buy it for me when they decide to come over to visit. But recently I ran out of conditioner (like completely out even of the Herbal Essences that I buy in bulk ahaha) I thought that I can't go on for the next little while not using conditioner. My hair is damaged enough as it is so I went to the supermarket today and bought another Shiseido conditioner that I saw on sale for 12.99 (still expensive but I really really need one)

It's this one. Not too sure how many of you guys have heard of it. "Shiseido Moist Hair Pack" I'm hoping that this product could save my hair just a little bit (or at least my ends). If anyone's curious I'll do a short post on it if you'd like (or a comment). I'll be using this product tomorrow morning anyway.

Dedication to Food

So I think this post is completely dedicated to food (mindyou, MOST all happened today. Just imagine how many pounds I gained from today)

 I think yesterday afternoon was the first time I lined up an hour to buy food. Normally, I wouldn't waste my time with something like this but there was a grand opening of this store at the food court that I really really wanted to try.

So this is the place that I wanted to try, "Saboten".  Basically, their specialty is deep fried pork cutlet and shrimp. (They only had 10 items on the menu and all of them include either pork or shrimp ahaha)
And this is the set that I ordered. I think that this pork was the best pork I've ever had in my life. No joke. It was amazing. I'm definitely going to eat there again.

Anyway, it is now 2:32am and I just got home from intense food shopping day. After work this morning, I went out with a friend to the mall and bought a Red Velvet cupcake (yes, I am aware that is probably the most fattening cupcake out there too ._. ) Not going to upload the picture though because the lighting was pretty bad.

Here's the cupcake display though. I guess you can kind of see the cupcake I bought (in the bottom left of the picture)

I also bought these Japanese chocolates from "La Chocolaterie" (website right..... here)

I normally go for their matcha chocolate but I decided to give this one a try. It's just a pack of 6 with 6 different flavours (none of which I can remember other than blueberry, mango, and earl grey)

So afterwards, I went out to dinner with family, then went out again with other friends for fondue at a place called Capstone.













The food was so adorable, I couldn't resist taking pictures nonstop. Then somehow somewhere, my friends and I somehow decided to do some late-night karaoke, bringing my night to an end at 2:30 ahaha. Before I pass out on my keyboard I am going to go to bed (as I still have work tomorrow morning. Let's see how functional I am) I hope everyone has a great weekend and I'll post again soon (hopefully something beauty-related this time eh?)
