Eyeko Mascara

Here's the price if you'd like me to order it for you. It will take about 2 weeks to arrive.

BND18 + BND2 (custom tax & service charge)

Special for my regular customers: If you have bought from me before for e.g. you have bought Lipocils/Ojon from me - I wont charge you the BND2. :)

AN Product Review #2

Hi ladies! In this post I'll be talking about the Eyeko Mascara and Urban Decay Primer Potion.

First up the Eyeko mascara. I love the tube!! I find it so unique that you can actually squeeze ur mascara and actually know how much you have left. The mascara wand however gets some getting used to for me because it is different. But boy does it lengthen! It's crazy how long my lashes are when I use this and it really is VERY black which I love. I love my Loreal Voluminous for giving me volume and Im loving this for length. One thing I dont like is taking it off. You really have to get into your lashes to make sure every last bit of it comes out but it's like that for my Voluminous too. Small price to pay for the effect it gives. You can check out Gemma and Selby's videos on the mascara as well to see how it looks when they use it.

Urban Decay Primer Potion also known as UDPP. Some of you may already know about this but I only found out about this early this year. I have trouble getting my eyeshadow to stay on throughout the day so when I saw on youTube that there was this product, I ordered it straight away. What it does is help your eyeshadow stay on longer and also for me I notice that the colour of the eyeshadow is nicer when I put in on top the UDPP. How do you use it? Just put a small amount on your lids and rub it in and let it dry. Then put on your eye make up. And wa-la! Longer lasting eyeshadow and check out the difference in the colour as well. I think it looks just that much better with the UDPP.

Skin Products - Oily Skin

I was requested to do a recommendation on skin products for oily skin. Unfortunately because I have dry skin, this is not based on my personal use but more on a general 'what Ive heard' kinda of thing. Try it out and let me know if it works for you and for those of you who have recommendations please share with us as well. :) These products are both drug store products.

Skin cleanser/mask - Neutrogena Visibly Clear 2 in 1

This is one Ive heard about on youTube a lot. It's 2 in 1 meaning you can use it for a cleanser and if you leave it on for a bit longer before rinsing it off, it works as a face mask. Its good for oily skin and those prone to breakouts. Unfortunately this isn't available in Brunei. If you wanna give this a try let me know and I can try and get it for you. Actually Ive heard a lot about Neutrogena Deep Clean Cleanser as well which is oil free so that's worth checking out as well.

St Ives Apricot Scrub

This is a great scrub that is available in Brunei both in Guardian and Winmark and they have many types for different skin types. I do recommend exfoliating at least once to twice a week to get rid of any dead skin cells and to help maintain clean pores. This will help with all types of skin.

Apart from these it does depend on yourself individually most of all. Like for some people brands like the Body Shop work for them however for me my skin has an allergic reation so not everything that works for other people is going to work for you.

Most importantly, you really need to know what skin type you have. To know what type of skin you really do have, this is a good test. Wash your face with your facial wash, dry it and then leave it like that for about 5 minutes. Does your skin feel tight? Then you have dry skin like me. If you dont moisturise your face properly, your face will produce oil to compensate for the dehydration so that's one thing to keep in mind.

If you have oily skin make sure to use oil-free products only for your face as well.

For higher end brands I do recommend Dermalogica! Its a great brand and if you go for face mapping they can help you find the best products for your face. It is a bit pricey but I do believe in the long run it is worth it. I believe there are a few places in Brunei that do have Dermalogica products, there's one in Kiulap (not too sure where) and there's one in Gadong (same row with Pizza Hut).

Sorry guys that's all I can share, hope that helps! :)

Make Up Palettes

I thought Id share this with you ladies as well. Last month I bought a palette and 2 gel liners and I was amazed at the quality for the price. Because Im still experimenting with eye shadows and what colours suit me and my eye colour, I decided to get the palette to play around with before I invest in MAC or Nars eyeshadows. I was pleasantly surprised that all the reviews I saw on youTube were actually true! Eventhough the palette is relatively cheap considering how many colours you get, the quality is still very good. The colours are very pigmented and easy to blend and work with and because I bought this particular palette I was able to play with colours as well. I used colours for Raya to match my outfits and it turned out pretty nice. :)

Let me know if you ladies would like me to order a palette for you. They have it in a few ranges so let me know which ones you're interested in. These are exactly the same like Coastal Scents palettes except that it's from a different store and it's slightly cheaper. So do a search on youTube and you can see swatches and tutorials as well! You can even go to the Coastal Scents websites to have a look. :)

(88 piece eyeshadow set)

This is the palette and the gel liners I got (in turquoise and brown). The palette I got was the matte one but some of the colours do have a little bit of shimmer in them.

- 88 piece ultra shimmer - BND43

AN Product Review #1

I love reading these and I thought Id start doing it as well. In this review, I'll be talking about the Loreal Voluminous Mascara and Revlon's Colorstay Foundation.

This is the BEST mascara Ive ever tried and personally for me it puts all the other mascaras (drugstore) to shame! It truly does give your lashes volume. My eyelashes are already long from the Lipocils so I wasnt looking for length but when I use this mascara it does make me able to show off my lashes even more. Only downside is getting it off. Im using the waterproof one because from what Ive heard waterproof mascaras help your lashes keep their curl but then at the end of the night I have to suffer the consequences of removal. :p Unfortunately this is not available in Brunei so I did have to get it in from the US and I so dont regret it.

Now this is available in Brunei at our very own Guardian. I use the color Sand Beige. I used to use the Nude cause in my head Im VERY fair when Im actually not. Only when I was looking at my pictures did I see how it didnt suit me. :p

This is the best drugstore foundation you will ever find. Take my word for it. I was talking to a colleague of mine about it and she bought it and loves it too. I love how it goes on so smoothly and dries so quick and the coverage is amazing. It really makes you look like you have flawless skin! But I was a bit skeptical on how long it would last knowing liquid foundation isnt such a great idea in such a hot country as Brunei. The true test was when I wore this foundation and went to watch netball at the indoor stadium. For those of you who have been there you know just how hot it is. Within 5 minutes I was sweating already and I was worrying about my foundation streaking and lo and behold, guess what? It stayed on! And so Ive found my holy grail foundation. It doesnt break me out either. I use my Sonia Kashuk blender sponge to put it on and on I use my MAC Mineralised Skin Finish to set it. I love the Mac MSF's as well. I was in UK at the MAC counter and she recommended it and she said I was a Medium PLUS. Can you believe it? I seriously need to get over the fact that Im not as pale as I thought I was. :p

Well that's my review. Let me know what you guys think and what products you love and if you'd like me to do more.

xoxo,
nisaa

xoxo!

Another satisfied customer :)

HS - "Just want to let you know, your Lipocils actually made some eyelashes grow on my 'empty' areas.. It did lengthen them a bit too. My lashes have always been quite sparse so I was quite happy to see some new baby eyelash hair hehe.. pretty good stuff this. Affordable."

Update on my use of Lipocils

Hello!

Just an update on the orders. The 3rd batch of Lipocils should be arriving soon and the shipment of Ojon should be arriving by this week or early next week. So the 4th batch for Lipocils is open (6 more available) and the 2nd batch of Ojon is open (10 more available).

As for the Enjoy lines, because they will only accept orders of 10, I do have to wait till 10 are ordered before I can place the order so it might be a while. Thank you for your patience. Currently 7 more orders for the Hydrating line and 8 more orders for the Luxury Line.

Thanks for all your orders and support especially to those ladies (you know who you are) who are starting to be my regular customers. :)

I also have some feedback from my 1st batch of Lipocils customers:

Hello ladies,

Just an update, only 4 more available for booking for the 3rd shipment..

Btw I still have one more Ojon available for the 1st shipment and also Enjoy prices coming soon!

2nd shipment Lipocils

It's here. Please text me on collection details at 8 211 156. :)

Update

Only 2 more available for the 1st shipment of Ojon. Will be placing the order soon. Lipocils 2nd batch all booked. Orders for 3rd batch open now. (7 more available for booking out of the 10)

Lipocils and 2 side notes

For those skeptics out there here are more reviews and an article on Alicia Keys using Talika Lipocils.

And if you check out the Alicia Keys article, you can see the BeautyBlender that Gwen Stefani uses. I use the cheap alternative by Sonia Kashuk and I love it for putting on my Revlon ColorStay foundation (you can get it at Guardian - its the best foundation ever! Im recommending it to everyone and one of my colleagues tried it and loves it too). Here's are 2 videos - video1 video2 -on the sponges if you want to check that out.

Btw I just received these crystals. Im selling them at 80cents per pc (8x11mm). You can see the real thing at Khazanah if you want, I just dropped off a sample to Nelson.

Business for the beads and gemstones is pretty good, I have a few colours which have run out already but most of them I still have so do check out the catalogue if you're looking for beads and gemstones or just drop by Khazanah cause they have samples of everything Im selling.

Another Ojon review

This is actually an ex-classmate of mine who actually lives in America now, thought Id share it. :)

Tasha ~ I just want to add that this product is my holy grail. I use the Ultra Hydrating Shampoo, Ultra Hydrating Conditioner and Restorative Hair Treatment. These are definitely a good product. I've been looking for hair products for so long and I finally found it. And the "Restorative Hair Treatment" is great coz it's made of 100% ojon palm nut oil!

I have only 6 4 more available for the 1st shipment of the Restorative Hair Treatment so contact me soon to book/order. Only when I get 12 orders can I place the order with my supplier. So 6 8 down 6 4 to go. :)

xoxo

Pureology

I have the prices ladies. Do keep in mind that Pureology is a high end salon brand in America so do not compare to other brands that we have in Brunei.

Pureology Purify Shampoo 10 oz - BND65 (including shipping from America)

I need 10 orders before I place the order so let me know if you're interested at laislabonita156@hotmail.com or 8 211 156.

Ojon Update & Lipocils Update & General Update

I have 6 orders for the Ojon Restorative Treatment, need 6 more to be able to put in the order.

For the 2nd shipment batch of Lipocils I have 9 confirmed orders already so 1 more available. It should arrive end of this month.

Thanks to everyone who has been supporting the store and also those have linked me and told your friends/family about the store.

I've just received a custom order for some caps online that my customer couldnt purchase on his own because shipping was not available to Brunei. Because I know a few people overseas, I shipped it to UK and so am able to bring it in. My first custom order, just want to say thanks for the business - you know who you are. Cheers.

Enjoy & Pureology - Still waiting for the prices, I do apologise for the delay.

Ojon Restorative Treatment 5 oz (the largest size)

Finally I have a price, it's BND95 per jar (It's like going for a salon treatment for BND7 per month for a year.) It sells in the US for USD$55 which is more or less the same. It should last you a year or more depending on how much hair you have and how often you want to do the treatments.

I'm not bringing in the smaller jars because price wise it's not worth it to import from America, sorry. :(

I'll be bringing in the 1st shipment as soon as I have 12 orders because that's the minimum order. Email me or text me if you're interested.

Selby's review (her hair is amazing, I am so jealous and she is the reason why I started Enjoy & Ojon)

The Official Website -

What is it: A versatile hair rejuvenator that instantly hydrates, strengthens, and restores dry, damaged hair. Made with natural antioxidants and 100% pure Ojon palm nut oil--the same rare oil used by Central America's Tawira Indians, known as "the people of beautiful hair," for over 500 years. This treatment fortifies, rebuilds, and nourishes, leaving hair extraordinarily soft, silky, shiny, and manageable.

Who is it for: Ideal for dry, damaged, or chemically treated hair types.

How is it different: The treatment is 99% natural, and free of preservatives, color, and silicone. Ojon oil contains omega-3, -6, and -9 essential fatty acids. Omega-3 fatty acids are essential components for normal human growth and development, and omega-6 fatty acids are essential components of cell membrane structure. A deficiency of these essential acids are common and can cause dry, itchy skin, brittle nails and hair, and can also lead to hair loss. Clinical testing proves that one application of Ojon Restorative Hair Treatment increases hair strength by 16%.

How do I use it: Use once a month or as needed. Scoop 1/2 teaspoon into the palm of your hand and rub it between your hands until it becomes an oil. Distribute evenly from scalp to hair ends and repeat until hair is fully saturated. Treat your scalp to a one to two minute massage to stimulate the hair follicles and scalp while allowing the oil to penetrate. Comb through to ensure all strands are saturated and leave for 20 minutes or more. For very dry or damaged hair, leave in overnight by placing a towel over your pillowcase or wearing a shower cap over your hair. Rinse with warm water.

Feel free to Google it and check out the reviews, there are actually a lot and I don't know why I've never heard of it until now.

Personal Experience Time - I've used it twice so far and the first thing you will notice is the smell. I personally don't mind it but some might, it smells like coffee beans but after shampoo-ing the smell does go away so I can deal with that. Even if I hated the smell though, the results make it so worth it. I can tell you that I have very frizzy and dry hair which I have to straighten with a straightening iron to look nice so I have tried every hair treatment you can think of from Kerastase to Japanese Milk Treatments and I've never had my hair respond this way before. Hands down the best treatment I've ever tried but you just have to try it yourself to see. It makes my hair so much more easy to manage and after 2 treaments I can see a difference in my hair that it's less dry and less frizzy and it's starting to be shinier and healthier looking as well (keep in mind this is after only 2 treaments so my hair doesn't look like Selby's yet :p).

Ojon

Thanks Syeedah for the comment. Just wanted to share with everyone.

"Hey, Ive been using Ojon for the past 4 years and it's really good. Highly recommended! The ojon hair treatment is tres amazing followed by their shampoo. Opinion, best when used overnight! Totally get your hands on it :)"
