Intimate Waxing Party @ Honeypot Wax Boutique, One Utama

Hair hair hair! Which girl doesn't wish to be a sexy fuzz free glamour kitty?

I had the privilege to attend an intimate waxing party at Honeypot Wax Boutique, One Utama and had my FIRST waxing experience. Yes, it's my FIRST TIME waxing but many times of shaving! Well, I have never try any waxing treatment before mainly because of I have low no pain tolerance at all! So, I only had few times of shaving but due to laziness, I stop doing the shave! Thus, I have hairs like a monkey! With such low pain tolerance, I wonder if I can go through this because I can scream out loud with just a tiny needle poke into my skin, what's more about ripping fuzz off my skin!

I actually hesitated when I got the invitation, but I asked myself deep in heart :" Why not give it a try? Never try never know. After all, it's just a minimal pain and voila I'm a fuzz free kitty! So, just go for it!"

Went over to One Utama after work and greeted by the lovely ambiance and friendly staff! Mingled around and have some light refreshment while waiting for my turn to have my fuzz ripped off! *So nervous and afraid of the pain*!
Rose Wine and Cup Cakes for the guests!

The award winning wax salon Honeypot Wax Boutique was first established in Singapore and having 2 outlets in Klang Valley. First outlet was in Bangsar Shopping Center which catered for female only. Whereas the One Utama outlet is located in the midst of a thriving corporate enclave, providing busy executives be it male or female as well as exhausted ladies after a day of retail therapy to be pampered and buffed to perfection!

The chic looking interior at the waiting area!  Now who doesn't like such vintage-girly salon?!
Everything about Honeypot oozes attitude, seduction and glamour as you rip off the fuzz in style. Honeypot has the dramatic crystal chandeliers, funky signature motif walls, private pink treatment rooms, hip music right down to the fabulous hot pink products!

Smooth and silky skin is not only for the ladies. Let the metrosexual men in you be groomed and preened into a sexy hunk as One Utama outlet offers unisex treatments! Guys, this is strictly by appointment only!
The Black Room in One Utama outlet specially cater for the male . Yes, guys can enjoy wax treatment too! 
The interior of Honeypot is stylish, funky with bold pink unleashing a cozy ambiance. Everything was so girly with all the pinks around.
The Pink Room for the ladies!
 Honeypot Wax Boutique treatments include full waxing services with the salon's signature "Brazilian". Both salons provide friendly, efficient, professional and approachable service from its highly trained wax kitty staff and are committed to high standard of hygiene. No double dipping of spatulas as they uses disposable spatulas, gloves and cotton bedspreads.

The products and tools in each treatment room. The black square thingy is a hard wax  for the sexy Brazilian.  Far right is the hot wax for the less sensitive area like legs and arms. 
Line up of waxing products.
Cherry Pie: The Brazilian wax!It's a hot wax where it will be immediately harden on the skin and the skilled therapist will slowly remove it. Heard it's not that pain, so anyone up for a Brazilian?  

Finally, it's my turn to have my FIRST waxing treatment. The friendly therapist name Karine was very professional and efficient. She explained everything from A-Z throughout the treatment and make sure I enjoyed it. The first step is to apply a layer of baby powder on both my legs. Yes, I am doing a Strip Wax on my legs instead of Brazilian because......you know. 
Pre-Waxing: Right after applying a layer of baby powder, Karine used the "Oh So Clean" product to cleanse off the skin. Just like the basic skincare step, there's always cleanser, toner and moisturizer. 
Pre & Post Waxing: Oh So Clean
Then, here we go with the waxing session. Honeypot uses Strawberry Kitty Wax and it is put into a machine (see pic below) to warm it up. The wax maintain at a warm temperature so it is easier to rip off the fuzz with a piece of strip. 
Strawberry Kitty Wax!
The therapist will roll over the Kitty Wax on the skin and rip it off with a strip. On the wax strip (see pic above) is the pink gel wax. Omg! I ouch-ed! Therapist told me the pain is normal as this is my first time doing it, moreover with menstrual along, pain will be extreme due to hormone change. It is better to do your waxing after period, you will get less or no pain (provided you have better pain tolerance). 

The after-strip of my right leg compared with left leg. I felt my skin more soft and smooth compared with left leg (with hairs on). Look at the amount of hair on the strip sheet! *shocked*

Clean, smooth and soft like baby skin. 
Due to the fact of I used to shave when I was a teenager, therapist told me that my leg's skin pores become larger thus I saw red dots appearing and starts itching. When I saw redness on my leg, I was nervous wondering what will happen to my skin as I have sensitive skin. Therapist calmed me down and applied a magical potion! Poof-ed! The redness are all gone and I don't feel any itch instantly! 
The magical potion which I love the most-> Pain Free Potion!
To moisten the skin, Karine applied Hydrate! on both my leg. This is the moisturizer to keep the skin hydrate. 
Here's a short clip I manage to capture when Karine enjoy torturing waxing my legs: 





Karine shared some tips and advice what NOT to do after waxing treatment:
~Do not scratch even it is itchy, it will cause pigmentation on the skin!
~Do not apply any lotion for 24hours.
~Not to shower with hot water for 24hours.
~Do not scrub, sauna, swim and steam-bath for 24hours. 

Overall, the treatment only takes about 15-20minutes and here you go with the fuzz free skin! Karine was so caring knowing me still having the itch after some time, she applied an aftercare product, a soothing gel on my legs. Now, I feel better.
Minty Aloe Jellow : Known for its antibacterial, caring and soothing properties. Aloe Vera gel gently calms, soften and moisturizers the skin while mint provides a natural clarifying and cooling effect.

Beautiful Winged Eyeliner by Kiss Me


Winged eyeliner or cat-eye liner gives a classic look with a touch of sexiness. I believe most of the females know the how-to on creating gorgeous looking cat-eye *MEOW*! But, selecting a good eyeliner product plays a crucial part in creating a smudge-free sexy eyes. 

Every one certainly has their very own pretty features but there are still flaws that need to be emphasize where makeup comes into the picture. A person does not need a heavy makeup to look good but a minimal makeup which looks natural will help in enhancing natural beauty.

I am not a heavy makeup person and usually goes out with a thin layer of eye liner and makeup base only. Sounds lazy? Well, undeniably yes! I've tried many different brands of eye liner (pencil, liquid & gel), and I am only good with gel type eye liner. I've been using X brand eye liner before I try on a surprisingly wow-ed me eyeliner! My X brand eyeliner has been good to me but not when I sweat or cry! I'll ended up having panda eye which gives me a dirty look. Since then, I've been looking for a good gel eyeliner but have not get any yet. Oh well, I'm lucky enough to have the chance to try out a Japan product-> KISS ME! So, I picked their gel eyeliner. Heard they are one of the best!



So, what has makes me WOW-ed?
Kiss Me : Heavy Rotation Gel Eyeliner

Courtesy of Mandom Malaysia, I'm given this opportunity to try out their water-proof gel eyeliner. Kiss Me "Heavy Rotation" Gel Eyeliner brings the concept of girly, dolly and sexy look. Do you know what is the meaning of "Heavy Rotation"? In fashion magazines, it means using the same item frequently because it is convenient and easy to use thus become every one's favorite.


It is an all-purpose gel eyeliner which creates "Deco Eyes" instantly. You can easily draw upward slanting wings with the jet-black eyeliner. The deep jet-black color of eyeliner clings tightly to the skin creating powerful impressive eyes. For those who are not so good in drawing/creating winged eyeliner, the gel eyeliner comes with a flat brush. It is easy to master the skill of applying winged eyeliner as the elastic flat brush conforms comfortably to your eye lids and you can draw clear lines from the corner of your eyes to upward slanting wings. I love the flat brush as it has thin and wide surface where I can draw either a thin clear line or creating an impressive "Deco Eyes"!

Naked Face!
Sexy & Classic Winged Eyeliner Look!
It is easy to use and gives you an elegant yet stylish look. Eyeliner enhances beauty without heavy makeup and gives you casual as well as chic look anytime, anywhere. Now I can enjoy smudge-free eyeliner and no more worries of getting dirty panda eye look!

Thanks to Mandom Malaysia for the wonderful items!



Enjoy a flawless winged eyeliner with Kiss Me: Heavy Rotation Gel Eyeliner (RRP: RM54.90) today!


*Kiss Me products are available at Sasa and Watson.

Blink-ish iPhone Casing Reviewed!

Blink-ish iPhone casing? You can tell that is a very common accessory available everywhere, but I can tell you this is solely handmade where each stone/crystal is place onto the surface of casing one by one. You can say, oh well, I can get it at any phone accessories stall/shop. Yes you can, but what about the price? So, if you are looking for affordable and fine quality of blinky-like phone case, continue reading!

"Lovely Blingz", an online mobile beauty shop selling D.I.Y handmade mobile phone casing. Well, this trend has been a big hit in China, Taiwan and Hong Kong but not Malaysia. Although there are other people doing this and selling them in Malaysia, but it is too pricey and not of good quality! I admit I'm a person who always seek for perfection outcome only! That's why I always turn my head off from those blinky accessories on shelf. 
There is only one person doing all the tasks from A-Z, she is a friend of mine. Her passion on beautifying gadgets, accessories and machines drives her to strive hard in expanding the business. Congratz to her as her business is doing well and expanding, getting orders from overseas such as Hong Kong! 
The mobile beauty trend is invading Malaysia!

I adore her artwork and therefore asked her to do me 2 of my favorite casing. She was busy handling countless numbers of orders but she still manage to deliver them to me on time! Well, she was on a short trip and promised to make it on time in 2 weeks time but to my surprise, she made it in 1 week time! I shall say this is very efficient! Although they are not using the high-end Swarovski stones (bcz it is too pricey), the outcome never disappoint me. But, you can demand for Swarovski stones as long as you don't complain on the price! 
My all time favorite print! Leopard in Champagne! The outcome deliver a touch of wild but elegant, classy style of Leopard print. What an unexpected ones!

Closed up!

Classic Chanel with Pearls!

Closed up!

If you wish to beautify your laptop, cameras, mobile phone, thumb drive, car, or anything else that you would like to add some "ohm" on them, never hesitate to contact Stefany at bling_steffy@hotmail.com or add her on FB.
