Update On Review Of The Face Shop Quick And Clean BB Cream
4 Comments Posted by Tine on Oct 24, 2008 at 11:19 AM.
I've updated the review on The Face Shop's Quick and Clean BB cream with more pictures of swatches and of it on my face. I hope this answers some of the questions y'all might have. I'll be doing a review on the BB creams by Skin Food and Missha very soon.
And yes, I have a lot of freckles :p
Do check it out.

My apologies for the sudden absence on the blogfront. There had been a family emergency which required my husband and I to fly back to KL on Friday.
Tim's maternal grandmother had passed away. She was 88.
It was a very sudden and short trip for the both of us. We just returned to Melbourne this evening. All his brothers flew back as well, from Sydney and Glasgow, UK. It was a good reunion, albeit a solemn one. In the rush of everything, I wasn't able to go back to Penang to visit my family, which really was too bad.
Regular blogging will resume very shortly. Thanks.

Hello ladies,
Just thought I'd let you know that I have a lot of overdue reviews which are coming up this month. First of all, I'd like to apologise for taking so long with them; I've been swamped with other things, but rest assured that I am on it, and will get them up here as soon as I can.
Secondly, with the reviews, there will be a giveaway coming up too, which I'm very excited about, so do keep a look out for that.
Have a good Thursday!

Yep, I'm finally back from my honeymoon in the US. So much to tell, so many photos to show (I've got about a thousand photographs in my external hard disk still waiting for me to go through), and not to mention, the crazy-ass shopping I did!
My apologies for not dropping by your blogs the past couple of weeks. I've got over a thousand RSS feeds to read, so it's going to take me a while before I finally comment on your blogs and also to answer your questions on mine.
I'll be right back with photos. Trust me, you'll most definitely want to knock me on the head when you see the amount of stuff I bought. It's crazy, I tell you :p
Stay tuned!

I'm finally off for my honeymoon! As such, I'll be on a hiatus for about three weeks. I've arranged for some scheduled blog posts throughout the period that I'll be away (gotta love the ability to be able to create scheduled posts). However, I won't be able to reply comments or emails quickly during that time, so don't be too alarmed, eh?
I should be able to update my Twitter every now and then, so do check it out.
I'll be back with LOTS of pictures from the holiday, and, I'm sure you'd be more interested in, my shopping haul! :)

Boy oh boy oh boy, my US shopping list is getting longer and longer as time draws near.
Just for fun, I thought I'd show you a page of my shopping list. There you go. Page one of ... let's say it hasn't reached the end of the notebook yet :p
Hmm ... I wonder if there's anything else I've missed. Any ideas on stuff I should try out?
PS: And no, that's not my actual handwriting. If only I write that neatly. Sigh.

I've decided to break the rules of what you should and should not put on your blog (really, who's to decide and judge what's best for your blog if not yourself? It is your blog after all, no?) and put in a chatbox!
I've been going back and forth, thinking hard on whether to implement a chatbox in my blog for a very long time now. For one thing, it does increase the length of my sidebar, which I've been trying hard to keep short. I finally threw caution to the wind when I realised something very simple.
I'd love to chat with you. So long sidebar be damned :p
Whenever you drop by my site, do say hi. It's on my sidebar, right below the Search button. Also, if you have any questions related to health, beauty, or just about anything under the sun, just write in the chatbox, and I'll get back to you on it. Better still, other readers might be able to help too!
Let's chat, people! Don't keep the lil' chatbox empty and lonely, will ya? :)
PS: Oh, and please keep it clean, yeah? I will delete any abusive and spammy comments. Thanks!

I've been keeping this under wraps for quite some time now, but now that I've finally gotten it, I can finally let the cat out of the bag. See this?
It's my visa to the US. Tim and I are going to the US for our honeymoon in September! Initially we wanted to go to Europe, but with the strengthening of the Australian dollar, we decided that the US would be a more feasible destination.
We'll be visiting my aunt and her family in California. It'll just be two weeks though, as Tim can't get too many days off.
Before the US, we'll be heading back to Malaysia for a dear friend's wedding. I'll be leaving for Malaysia earlier at the end of this month to spend more time with my family and friends before Tim joins me.
This is so exciting! You can't even imagine how long my shopping list is. We're so looking forward to checking out the factory outlets. Hello Levis jeans for USD10! :p

When Nikki of Askmewhats blogged about her favourite magazines, I knew I had to do the same because like her, I'm also a real magazine junkie.
I started reading girly magazines at the age of 12, when my dad brought home my very first Teen and Teenage magazines from Singapore. It was such a refreshing change from educational magazines like Kuntum and Dewan Pelajar, that I read those magazines over and over. Everytime my parents travel to Singapore on business, I'd beg them to bring home new issues of the magazines. After a while, the frequency of those business trips decreased significantly, and I lost my fix. So imagine my utter delight, when CLEO Malaysia was launched in 1996. I bought every single issue then, up to the time I left for the UK to further my studies.
The addiction did not stop there. Given that the UK stocked a lot more magazines than Malaysia, especially the international ones, I got so crazy with them, that I spent so much money on magazines alone. It's enough money for at least one return trip to Europe. Yep, it was that bad. I had to give a lot of them away to charity shops when I had to leave the UK. How my heart broke then.
Thank God for beauty blogs, due to which I drastically reduced my magazine purchases. I got to read the latest news on fashion and beauty way before it comes out on print.
The darn glossy pages still attract me like a moth to a flame though. Here are some of the magazines which I read regularly, here in Australia.
1. InStyle
I started reading InStyle regularly when I was in Malaysia. This international magazine (I read the ones from the US and the UK) is ridiculously expensive in Malaysia; it ranges from RM18 to RM27 per issue. I know, I know, that would be equivalent to the price of a paperback. I love this magazine because it caters to a more mature audience. Not old aunties, mind you, but at least it's not full of teenybopping fashion and articles.
I subscribe to InStyle here in Australia. I managed to snag a good deal in the subscription package, which saves me 40% off the newstand price. I enter the Grab Bag competition every month, but I never win. Oh well. I'm still hopeful :)
2. Cosmopolitan
You don't get much beauty and fashion tips here compared to relationship and sex issues. What can I say? Lots to learn about sex here *nudge nudge*. Plus, there's a sealed erotica section in the magazine, which is always fun to read *wink wink* :p
3. Shop Till You Drop
This is another magazine that I subscribe to. I enjoy the fashion articles in the magazine, and the clothes are fantastic. Their "Buys Under $50" pages are always an inspiration to a cheapo like me :p
Another reason I enjoy reading this is because I really like the layout design in the magazine. The concept is interesting pictures and articles on one big idea notice board if you will. It's something which I've secretly always wanted to have, an idea board.
4. Foodie Magazines
Okay, these aren't fashion and beauty magazines, but I thought they were worth a mention, because I've made many delicious meals from the recipes found in these magazines. I'm not a good cook; at least, I'm not a creative one, and am still a greenhorn when it comes to seasonal produce and what to do with them. Plus, the mouth-watering pictures of yummy morsels are more than enough to hook me in, line and sinker.
Ironically, a magazine which I hardly read nowadays is CLEO. I guess I've outgrown the magazine, which is now more and more catered to those in their late teens or early twenties. Oh CLEO, you and I, we'll always have good times.
So, is there anyone out there who shares my love for the glossy pages? What are your favourite magazines? Do share ;)

Social Networking and Web Tracking for Beauty Bloggers
12 Comments Posted by Tine on Jul 7, 2008 at 7:43 PM.
I'm going to do a bit of a non-beauty related post today. Sorry ladies, no makeup talk today :p
If you're a beauty blogger and/or reader, and are interested in reaching out to other beauty bloggers and readers, a great way to do so is by social networking. I discovered lots of great beauty sites and blogs through beauty networks and communities such as Beauty Heaven (for Australian readers), Bella Sugar, Splendicity and Total Beauty. If you're a beauty blogger who isn't part of a beauty community yet, do check those communities out. Give 'em a shout if you'd like to be a part of the communities.
A good way to gain readership to your site is to actively participate in beauty networks and blogs. You get to meet people who loves makeup just as much as you do, if not more. Participate in their blogs by comments, and you'll see a good return in comments and readership as well. There is no shortcut in quick page rank increase though. All these take time. But trust me, at the end of the day, it's a worthy wait.
Have a web statistics meter running on your blog to know who visited your site, if you haven't already. You'd be surprised at the actual number of silent readers you have. It's a great way in keeping in touch with your readers when you know who they are (especially the silent ones who visit your site regularly but do not comment - haha, I know who you are! :p)
Anyways, on my part to network, network and network with all you beauty bloggers and readers out there, do check me out on Twitter and Myspace. I've also added the links to my sidebar.
The Myspace page is mainly set up for my beauty blog, but I tweet personal stuff. I'm quite a Twitter-holic :p
Let's see ... what else is there?
Oh oh, have you heard of Woopra?
It's a website tracker and analyser, which, I think, is absolutely fantastic. I've been wanting to talk about this for a while now. It features real-time web-tracking and analysis. You get to view exactly how many people visited your website, where they were from, which of your pages are more popular and other important information. It's like Statcounter, but on a whole new level. I'm really excited about this one, and I highly recommend this site for web tracking.
Unfortunately, this isn't readily available to all. After signing up for an account, your website will be checked before approval. I got mine approved after a couple of weeks. I don't think it's going to be a problem though. Doesn't hurt to sign up for one, so do give it a go. I can tell you're going to like it once you get it set up. I had such a blast finding out who my readers were and all that. Call it healthy voyeurism :p
This is a blogging community service by Beautyholics Anonymous. We shall now return to our regularly scheduled program.
PS: By the way, this is not a sponsored post. Just some information which I thought you might be interested in.

Hiya ladies,
My apologies for going MIA on y'all. I'm taking a bit of a break from the blogging scene, just as gift to myself on my *ahem* birthday :p I'm so absorbed in this, it's not funny.
The Nintendo Wii and Wii Fit, both birthday presents from the husband. Do I or do I not have the best man in the world? Hehehe! It's great exercise and I so desperately need it for the winter months when it's too cold for me to go running outside.
I'll be back real soon, I promise. More reviews, coming right up!
Love,
Tine

Oh my goodness, I just realised, I missed the first anniversary of Beautyholics Anonymous by 4 days!
Has it really been a year already? Where did the time go?
Oh what a journey it has been. I've made new friends, met up with new friends, and had quite a number of *ahem* freebies coming my way which I was very grateful for. I've learnt AND spent more money on makeup than I ever did ever since I starting using makeup :p
It's good. It's all good. And it's all down to y'all, my lovely readers. Without you, there will be no Beautyholics Anonymous. So kudos to all of you.
Here's to another great year ahead, all you beautyholics!

I'm so in love with mineral makeup right now. I bought Everyday Minerals a month ago, and am absolutely hooked. I'll do a review on what I used very soon.
Just an hour ago, I placed an order for a sample kit from Silk Naturals. It should arrive in 3 weeks, I think. Oh, and also makeup brushes from Lumiere.
Damn you, online shopping!!

Behold the new look for Beautyholics Anonymous!
I thought it was time to change the template for this blog. The previous template served me well for almost a year, and I really love the pink and black colour combination, but I reckoned it was time for some changes.
I took a ready-made template from Geckoandfly and modified it to suit my taste. All the images used in the template is actually taken from Microsoft's Clipart and modified them using Photoshop. I actually came up with three headers before deciding on this one. Fickle, thy name is also woman :p
The sidebar remains the same. I've added a few tabs at the top of the posts for easy access (also tidied up the blogroll which used to be on my sidebar). It was also time to update the About Me page, so do check it out. And more importantly, I've added my favourite colour - PURPLE! I think it looks neater than before. I think. Hmm ...
Anyhoos, what do YOU think? :p

Dear readers,
My sincere apologies for the absence. The wedding's finally over, and I've just moved to Melbourne, thus I was really busy the past couple of months.
But now that all of those are over, I can finally concentrate on giving you lovely ladies more reviews and beauty-related information! You can bet I'm dying to try out the new products here in Australia. I can't wait to try out brands like Becca, Napolean Perdis, and even stuff we do not get back home like Cover Girl. Oooooh, I'm so excited!
So do stay tuned, and I shall be right back with more stuff.
Stay beautiful!
Love,
Tine

Happy New Year, ladies!
Here's to a fantabulous new year. My new year plans for this blog:
- A new template (currently working on one from scratch, thus taking a longer time to kick off)
- Giveaways (everyone loves a freebie, no? :p)
- More beauty reviews (I resolve to be more consistent with my postings)
Stay tuned, and stay beautiful!

Gee, 2008 is just around the corner. How time flies when you're having fun, eh?
I started this baby (blog) in May 2007, and sadly, I've been neglecting it due to my wedding preparations, work, and all that. I had big plans for this blog, and it started out great. It still is, albeit a little slower than I'd imagine. My bad for not following it closely. But there'll be changes once everything is settled, I promise.
So, beauty-wise, what did I learn in 2007?
- I went for a makeup course at Stella-In. It wasn't cheap (RM380 for two classes), but it was so much fun as I went with a group of friends from work, and we had such a blast learning how to properly put on makeup. I would definitely encourage those of you who enjoy makeup to go for one, if not to learn more about skincare and makeup, then for a laugh, because it really is a whole lot of fun.
- Ever since I started the beauty blog, I began buying more beauty products! I used to be massive bag junkie (well, still am, albeit toning down a little), but now I hoard beauty products like there is no tomorrow. Everytime I see something new, I'd go "hey, I want this. Can blog about it" :p I was unstoppable. And now, I have a lot of barely used stuff which I'll be giving away to some of my girlfriends before I leave for Melbourne.
- I became my friends' unofficial beauty consultant. Free one at that (tsk tsk!). I don't claim to know a lot, but I really hope I did help y'all out a bit by dishing out a bit of advice here and there. Remember ladies, WE are our asset :)
- I became addicted to blusher (not as much as Paris, tee hee, but I'm so getting there). I love how it lights up my face on a dull and dreary day.
- I discovered loads of cheap and chic makeup and skincare products like Elianto and Clinelle. See, this is what happens when thoughts of "blogging about it" can't leave your mind.
- I finally found my holy grail of body lotions. Whee!
So yeah, that was what 2007 was for me. My pockets became lighter from the massive products I amassed, but I sure found a lot of goodies along the way. Let's hope that 2008 will bring us more new things to try out (ouch says my purse), especially when I'm in Melbourne. Can't wait to try out the Australian brands. Oh, and I'll also send some goodies back to some of you ;)
Cheers to 2007, and may 2008 bring you lovely ladies good finds and great bargains.
Stay beautiful!

Dahlink readers,
My apologies for not posting for a while (I apologise despite what other people may think I shouldn't even bother because it's my blog, yadda yadda yadda, I do have a responsibility towards my readers, and my advertisers). It's been a hectic couple of weeks, what with work and wedding preparations.
Many a time I find that I lack the energy to keep up with so many blogs of mine, but as this is my baby, I'm definitely not about to give it up. So please bear with me, for I do have more reviews (and *ahem* bitching about) on beauty stuff. For even though I'm tired from it all, I am still full of energy when it comes to shopping :p
I shall be back real soon, do stay tuned :)
Love,
Tine

We interrupt our program with some breaking (and beauty-unrelated) news.
After reading Problogger Darren Rowse's article on Widgetbucks to stop monetising non North-American traffic, I've decided to remove the Widgetbucks widget. Not going to waste precious sidebar space if it isn't going to earn me anything.
Oh, and geotargeting ads? What an idiotic idea. I'd sooner move on to something else which isn't that discriminating. I'm hardly getting anything out of it anyway.
So out you go.
We now return to our regularly scheduled program.

Dear ladies,
My apologies for the absence last week. I was in KL for my Australian visa application at the Australian High Commision, and also to attend to some wedding details.
BUT, being the shopaholic that I am, I bought something which I'm itching to show, all from my shopping at The Gardens, Mid Valley. Bloody expensive place to shop, I'd say, but still, I managed to snag something I've been wanting for ages.
Stay tuned!
Love,
Tine
