Christmas Wish List from Hermo




Ho! Ho! Ho! It's that time of the year again where the air is filled with smell of Christmas which mean parties, joy and laughter. I'm sure everyone can't help feeling excited about Christmas and wish secretly for someone to get you a gift. Hehe, I do and my wish is granted. Hermo is becoming a Santa by a collaboration with The Butterfly Project Malaysia!! All we need to do is make a wishlist consisting of one or more items up to RM80. Gosh, what more can I ask for?? :)

Since it's about Christmas, I would like to share one video that I came across. It is about WestJet airline creating miracles for their passengers by giving them a surprise gift. So heartwarming! I almost got teary eyes watching it. This is similar to what Hermo is doing. You can watch it on YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zIEIvi2MuEk


Before moving on to my wishlist, let's see what Hermo is all about. Hermo is an online shopping mall in Malaysia that caters to different brands such as 3 Concept Eyes (3CE), Miss Hana, Laneige and many more ranging from skin care, body care and makeup. They offer these products at discounted prices and are guaranteed authentic. I shopped from them before and the order was delivered efficiently at a speed of lightning!! Definitely one of the recommended shopping sites. :)

When you log on to Hermo website, you can't help feeling excited. There are so many gift sets that is practically screaming at you asking to add them into the cart. Don't you just love December?? Haha, maybe I exaggerate a little.

Here are some of the set deals available. Do place an order soon as most of the sets are sold out. You would not want to miss this chance!




Hermo also has stocking stuffers that are up to 70% discount. You can just get one item if you think sets are not for you. :)


You can also shop without paying! Just order as usual, give the bills to those who love you the most and ask them to pay for it. I find this better as we wouldn't want something that we din't wish for right?? Hehe.


For this special month, Hermo will send the items in a special Christmas-themed box. This will act as a lovely gift idea and we don't have to waste anymore money/time finding the packaging for those gifts.



And another thing that excite me the most every day is this wheel of fortune!! You get one free spin each day and stand a chance to win Hermo credits and prizes until 26 December 2013. I tried it almost everyday and hopefully I can hit the jackpot of getting the Christmas mysterious gift worth RM50. >.<



Alright, moving on to my wishlist. Dear Santa, 2013 has been a meaningful year for me. I went through ups and downs but it will not make me fall. I will stand up high, look past those memories and become a better person in 2014. Receiving a gift from you will rush my adrenaline to work harder, so please grant my wish pretty please!! :)


I wish to get

3CE Cream Blusher in shade Coral Coral worth RM55

And lastly, thank you Santa for taking the time to read my wishlist. :)

Laneige CC Cream Review




Nowadays, more companies came out with CC Cream. CC stand for "colour correcting" which is packed with Vitamin C and E. It is a better version of BB Cream that focuses more on colour correction. When Laneige came out with their own CC cream, I was so excited!! I have always been a fan of Laneige. I used to have pimple prone skin but after using Laneige, my complexion improves gradually. *Touchwood* Please continue staying this way :) 

Laneige CC cream comes with SPF 36 PA++ that promises a natural look, whitening and also acts as a multi cream. The multi cream means that it act as sunblock, makeup base and primer. What attracted me is that this CC cream is water based. That means that it will be super lightweight and suitable for oily to combination skin. *clap hands"

There are 2 shades available and I got the sample size in peach pink. Peach pink is used to express a brighter skin and suit those with fairer skintone. Another shade is pure beige that is more suitable for darker skin that expresses warm and soft skin.


From the picture, it looks whitish but it is actually slightly more pinkish in tone.

How does it look on face:


After using it, I noticed that my face looked moist and glowing. It is not visible in the picture but it is in real life! It applies smoothly on the skin and is easily spreadable. If you are looking for coverage, I will not suggest this CC cream. It does not cover up my scars. However, if you are looking for "your skin but better", then get it! It instantly brighten up the skin without looking ghostly.

Price: 30000 KRW which is roughly RM90 in Malaysia

Availability: Sadly, it is not available in Malaysia yet. You can purchase it online at IBuyBeauti for USD34.99 with free shipping worldwide or search at q0010 Malaysia. I purchased the sample size from this seller in facebook that also sells various other cosmetics brand from Korea. Her price is reasonable and she does promotion all the time. 

Will I repurchase? Definitely. It is not too heavy for my skin and gives a natural nude look. Suitable for lazy people like me >.<

Thank you for reading my review. Till next time.
