Sunday Beauty - Nivea Extra White Makeup Clear

by Cynthia Lee


It's Sunday and yoga class was cancelled. The best time to stay at home and do a lil' pharmacy haul at the nearest mall :)
This product below caught my eye when I was roaming and checking out what's cheap and on sales in Guardian.
For someone who never fail to leave home with makeup on face, it's essential to ensure that all last traces of makeups are cleansed off at the end of the day (though many times, I come home tired and doze off with makeup still intact!)
You know all those saying that of you don't take extra care of your face when you are young, you most probably will not be enjoying any extra years having good skin when age catch up.
I am seriously lazy when it comes to taking care of my skin. I love makeup very much though and I do take a lot of extra effort to put on make up.

Removing makeup takes time. And effort. There's specific products created solely for the purpose of removing makeup before the normal face cleansing. In total, we makeup wearer takes double the time to get a clean and clear skin everyday.

Now here's something you should really have!

For those of you on the move, here's your must-have - Nivea Extra White Make Up Clear  3 in 1 series.

I purchased this set of the Nivea Extra White Make Up Clear 3 in 1 set for a mere RM12. That's a 100g of facial foam and comes with an extra tube of  50g 'mud'. The mud is actually mask!

I am just going to do lil' review on the facial foam this time round since beauty review just isn't my forte. So, just what can it remove? Here's what they claim ; 

Let's do a test on it =D

Here's a dollop of Missha BB cream, which I slather and later powder-puffed it to set the skin for some eyeshadow and stuff.

Here's a combo of eyeshadow, eyeliner and lipstick which I will try erase off with the facial cream.

Tada! A few rub later and a wipe of wet tissue over it, all traces are gone!

As I only did it on the right side of my hand, can you see the difference?

I am not sure if the Extra White formulation works immediately, but for sure it does clean the makeup off in a single wash. This is definitely good news for lazy makeup addict like me - loves to put on makeup, but lazy to remove it!

Verdict :

Price : Affordable!

Would I buy it again : Yes!

Does it clean well : I would say it does it work well, though not 100%. For areas like your eyes and creases around the nose, it's always best to make sure you double cleanse it with other form of cleanser like your cleansing oil or those makeup removing tissue. 

The Nivea Extra White Make Up Clear is available in major pharmacies and hypermarts :)

Happy Shopping!!

Cashback with ShopBack

by Cynthia Lee

This is going to be a great news for you girls out there who have been cutting short on your shopping expenses due to the weaker Ringgit.

Have you heard of ShopBack?
It is an online Cashback platform  that connects  merchants and shoppers (like us!). Originated form Singagore, it has landed in Malaysia for a couple of months back. I got to know about them a few months back from a blogger friend who have introduced me to it. Since then I have started to religiously using it whenever I shop online!

Merchants aplenty!
With over 300 merchants and growing, there's a myriad of choice to select from. Already have a online shop in mind that you intend to browse?
Wait! Log on to your ShopBack account to do your browsing instead. There's both local and international sites to choose from. From international sites likeDaniel Wellington, Asos, Steve Madden, there's also our daily must-visit local sites like Zalora and Groupon to choose.

How Does It Work?
Basically, it's like your usual shopping spree online, but this time, you actually get to save more by having cashback value based on your purchase.
Here's a simple guide through, using my favourite shop, Asos! =D

Notice the caption '5% Cashback'? It simply means that Asos will be offering a 5% cashback discount if you shop via ShopBack. With no additional terms and conditons yo!
Simply click on the Asos link via Shopback to do your browsing and make your purchase (non-sales or sales item is included).
This literally means you get additional 5% discount in the form of cahsback on top of whatever discount you are already enjoying from the site itself. Of course you don't get yoiur cash back immediately. You can see it being registered in your ShopBack Account. If you notive the above image for Asos, there is a mention that Cashback is tracked within 3 hours. So yeah, please do not immediately ring up the people in Shopback when you do not see the transaction registered in your accounts 5 minutes after your purchase :)

You can redeem your cashback amount based on the days indicated on every vendors' terms and conditions. It may range from 30 to 60 days depending on the vendors, but why hurry? I love seeing that I have cashback available for cashout from time to time without me realising it. It's like a hiddne piggy bank when you are in a semi-broke day! =D

As I already have an account, let me show you the real thing ;)
There are 5 tabs for you to monitor : Pending, Redeemable, Bonus (money you get when you refer friends), Paid Out and Total Earnings.

All your clicks via Shopback to any of the vendors in their list is tracked regardless of whether you have made a purchas eor not. But when you do make a purchase, then your transaction will be captured and any amount that you can redeem for the purchase will go under the Pending tab until it's due for payment.

If you would like to skip my lengthy explanation, I suggest you go create an account for yourself now and start saving as you shop!

Shop in USA from Malaysia!

Hi shopping kaki readers! Have you ever wanted to buy something from a U.S. store that doesn’t ship to Malaysia? Or they do ship to you, but for 20 times the price of what you wanted to buy in the first place? Have you ever wanted to buy a Tory Burch bag, Levis jeans, Ralph Lauren Polo shirt or Swarovski earrings for the kind of prices they retail for in USA?

Today we're excited to introduce YSK's own USA-shopping solution: Neferosa!

Website | Facebook | Instagram
To shop: Whatsapp/SMS 012-2080-705 | Email neferosaMY@gmail.com

What's Neferosa?

Neferosa Malaysia is founded by a team of Malaysian women determined to help you shop from U.S. stores and designer outlets. Like many of you, we’re tired of paying inflated shipping rates and exorbitant middle-man fees to buy clothes, bags, shoes, toys, jewelry and cosmetics from USA. 

Why should shoppers choose Neferosa? 

We formed a strategic partnership with the founder of YourShoppingKaki.com so that you have a personal shopper in USA — and who better to do the job than your original Shopping Kaki herself? ;) Yes, that's right, you have a trusted personal shopper who will: 

• Ensure that you're buying an authentic product, whether it's cosmetics, skincare or designer products. 

• Inspect the quality of the items before shipping them out from USA. 

• Try our best to find the most affordable option for you. 

• Uphold high standards of customer service.

• Most importantly, you can trust us: YSK has been a prominent fixture in the Malaysian online shopping scene since 2008. Even though Neferosa only launched in July, we believe we have a good reputation in the community!

What can you buy from Neferosa?

The answer is: anything from USA! You can pre-order whatever you want from us, or shop from our ready-stock selections. We have dozens of handpicked, ready-stock items we've already shipped to Malaysia including designer goods, cosmetics and clothing. We ship new items every month so do follow us on Facebook and Instagram to stay updated!

How to shop with Neferosa?

The fastest way is through Whatsapp or SMS to our Malaysian team at 012-2080-705. You can also email us at neferosaMY@gmail.com or message us on our Facebook store page.

Our pre-order posters usually guide shoppers on how to buy the products. For example, here is our poster for Funko Pop vinyl collectible toys! With prices starting at RM50, these are some of our bestsellers. :D

What kinda things have our customers been buying?

Our bestsellers have been designer bags and wallets, plus size clothes, cosmetics & skincare products, shapewear (Spanx & leggings) and collectible toys. However, you are more than welcome to enquire about any products you like -- the only items we don't ship are weapons or illegal substances. You can also check out our blog to see products that we've been offering: http://neferosa.wordpress.com/blog. 

How are pre-order prices calculated?

Price of your item + 8.25% sales tax + shipping costs + service fee = What you pay.

Like with all international shipping services, the shipping cost depends on the size and weight of your item. However, we are able to offer relatively affordable prices because we ship in bulk once a month from USA to Malaysia using secure shipping methods. Your purchases are then quality-checked again by our Malaysian team (in case of damage during shipment) before being sent to you via Pos Laju or COD in KL/Klang Valley.

How do you pay?

Bank in your payment into our Malaysian bank accounts: Maybank, Public Bank, Citibank. You don't have to worry about credit cards, PayPal or international conversion rates. You shop in Ringgit! 

What are you waiting for?

Start shopping with Neferosa today! And of course, here's a little something special for YSK readers. 

• Just say "I'm a YSK reader!" to get an RM5 discount off your first purchase. 
• For each friend that you refer to Neferosa, get an RM5 voucher after their first purchase! Make sure your friend tells us they were referred by you with the secret code "Referred by YSK reader (your name)". ;)

And don't worry, we always try to give regular customers our best possible prices! 80% of our business is with returning customers, which hopefully says something about our service! :D
