AWKWARD ATTRACTIONS

Hello Readers, have you watched that movie titled Warm Bodies? It is a really great movie, you should really watch it if you haven't, well at least in my opinion. I tricked my bf into watching this movie, I said it is about zombie, which is kinda true except I didn't warn him about the genre of the movie. He thought it was like resident evil kind of movie. So there he was, sleepy and bored to death almost the whole film. But not me. I was captivated by Nicholas Hoult who played the lover-zombie in the movie.

I watched this film 2 times, and I still want to but the dvd once they're out. Another great movie played by Nicholas Hoult is Jack the Giant Slayer, which is also playing now on cinemas.

I don't usually obsesse about actors, and mostly my favorites are actresses, such as Meg Ryan (oh I love her so much!) and Anne Hattaway. It's always the female character who attracts me more. The first actor ever who made me stalk him and watched every video on Youtube about him is, Andrew Garfield. And the second is, Nicholas Hoult. Among those millions of movies I've ever watched, only these two actors who could make feel head over heels for them, I guess. The silver lining is, they both are tall, funny and awkward. They remind me of my bf.  I just don't know what's that between me and tall awkward guys. If most of girls like their bf to be muscular, or cool, or hot, I like my guy to be quite nerdy and awkward. I know, strange taste isn't it? But I just can't help it. Maybe that's why I fell for V, he's not really nerdy but he's awkward alright. This awkwardness really is one of his charms for me, beside of his (dubious) sense of humor :)

I'm sorry if you don't get what I'm rambling about. I just feel like writing down my thoughts. So I'll just end this non-sense and watch another video of Nicholas Hoult on youtube then.

Anyway, these are my photos wearing Cottoncandy's new items, which are some of my favorite pieces of the March Collection. Enjoy!

BETTER THAN MILK

Women obsess about smooth and healthy skin from time to time. I do too obviously, but I’m not the type of woman who spends time taking care of her skin. I’m just too ignorant or lazy maybe. On my defence, I spend most of my time working, managing Cottoncandy even on weekends. To spend some time to spoil and beautify my skin is a luxury I can’t afford right now. Blame it on my crazy schedule. The stress, lacks of sleep and being overexposed to the sun really affects my skin’s moisture. I feel it getting drier and drier everyday. The only help I could get is by choosing the perfect body wash which contains enough moisturizer to maintain my skin stays healthy.

The key to healthy skin starts from taking a decent bath, removing all the dirts sticking to your skin. But sadly, carelessly choosing body wash products can lead to destroyed natural skin moisture. Each great products should contain enough amount of moisturizer and surfactant, which are important soft cleansing agents. Moisturizer contents which are not compatible with skin’s natural lipid could be washed away and not being absorbed. So the whole point of taking a bath is such a waste. Leaving your skin unhealthy, dry, and surely not appealing. 

The daily use of regular bath soap could destroy the Stratum Corneum of your skin, which could  cause the loss of essential layer of the skin, reduces skin moisture, reflecting dry and irritated appereance to the skin. 

But no worries, here comes the savior! DOVE just released some new variants to their amazing body wash, BETTER THAN MILK, consisting of Deeply Nourishing, Revive with Pomegranate and Lemon Verbena Scent, and last but not least, Fresh Touch with Cucumber and Green Tea Scent.
All of those new tempting products are enriched by Natrium Moisture, a unique technology which mixed up moisturizer and nutrition agents all into one. Nourishes, hydrates and refreshes you skin in a long term!

Also enriched with Streatic Acid, DOVE BETTER THAN MILK replaces the loss of skin’s natural lipid when taking a bath.

I have personally been using these new variants for a while now. My boyfriend said I smell good all day and my skin gets healthier everyday! Not to mention the silky sensation whenever I’m taking a bath, ensuring myself I’ve taken an amazing decent bath everyday. Who is the most beautiful person I know? They’re women who take care of their skin. Because with healthy skin, they feel prettier and reflect happiness, making them look even more pretty!

FASHIONABLY LATE

Hello my dear readers, I'm currently sitting at a cafe alone for a meeting, but too bad he's running late. Fortunately, I have my laptop here with me. Why not making a post while I got the time, so I thought. Talking about being late, I think it has become so much of a culture now a days. People got late everyday on every occasion, even on important meeting. Maybe that's why the quotation of "fashionably late" is existed. I'm not used to being late though, I prefer being on time or before time because I don't like to feel the hurry and panic. Sometimes I got late too of course, I will not lie about that, but afterward I would feel guilty or something like that. The scary thing is a lot of people now don't even feel a thing if they're late. I find it really disappointing because in my opinion, being late affects your credibility and surely you would waste other people's valuable time by doing so :(
