A Review on Kji & Co's Pink Injection

One word. Eeeeuuuwwww!

Retails at MYR 68, SaSa

What is it?

Pink Injection 72 Hours Semi Permanent Lip Butter

Claims? (from their website)

Smear Proof, Water Proof, 50% - 80% longer lasting that conventional lipsticks (up to 72 hours), 100% natural ingredients, Made in Japan

How to use it? (from their website)

Keep on layering for color intensity. To build up the staying power apply 3 to 5 times a day for the first 2 days, after which the colour should remain on your lips for up to 3 days after.

Things to note?

On the packaging it states to "Store in a cool dry place to prevent from denaturalization".

My Review: It's a twist pen and I had to turn a fair bit before anything came out. The applicator is not a brush-type but its a fabric covered top and light pink cream is dispensed through it. Upon my first few applications I didnt notice any difference but to be honest my lips are pinkish so maybe its not visible. I tried it on the back of my hand and it shows pretty well- after a few seconds the light pink cream starts to skin into your skin and turn pink. There is a faint chemical-ish smell and a slight lipsticky taste but nothing unpleasant.

Fast forward 1 month later, it now smells kinda gross.. like it is turning sour and it even TASTES sour. I tried it on the back of my hand again and it did NOT turn colour even after multiple applications. Perhaps what they meant by 'denaturalization' is 'turning foul and stinky'. Definitely wont be repurchasing. That said, Kji & Co's Lip Spa is actually pretty good in terms of giving colour. Not sure if it turns stinky and sour after a while tho.

No love here!

Karma.

What goes around, comes around eventually..

Tick Tock

How many of you wear a watch and actually use it to tell the time?

I havent worn a watch for almost 8 years. I do own a few- but its solely for fashion purposes and even then, I rarely wear them out.

Why I don't:
1. I have to remember to take it off when I shower/sleep
2. It gets in the way when I write
3. It always gets brushed against the wall/table/door/whatever
4. If its not an expensive one you'll end up replacing it within a year or so cause of (3)
5. I can use my phone to tell the time
6. I dont really like keeping track of time cause it just means time is running out or even worse, moving too slowly (i.e: being stuck in traffic/a meeting..)

Why I should:
1. A watch is an item which polishes off your look
2. Its nice to be able to tell the time without fumbling in the bag for a good 2 minutes
3. It would make my gestures more lady like and refined cause I wont fling my arms wildly anymore and will actually watch where I place them (yea right.. haha)
4. Responsible, punctual and presentable people wear watches

Been on the hunt for something expensive which will last me forever- but they just seem too pricey atm. Read: Tag Heuer, Omega, Chopard.

So I saw this Moschino Cheap & Chic watch, and it seems okay.. leather strap(durable!!), a scarf which can be used as a strap(or as a scarf!!) and the price is affordable too(my wallet says yayy!!). Not available in stores yet but I know someone who can put it on hold for me when they do ;D

Kinda leaning towards the Special Edition- black face with gold hands..

The white face with silver hands and red scarf looks pretty too..

Here they are with the leather straps..

So, should I or shouldn't I?
