Where am I going next????

I am very happy to announce my next trip, which is in 3 weeks time: to.........


(from google images)

If you know this sightseeing place, you will know where I am going.

Yes! This is Brandenburger Tor! Where is it?
It's in Berlin~ Berlin the Capital~~

It is a place where I wanted to go for ages, a place where there so remarks of the WWII, the separation of the country and the reunit of the country.

I would really want to see the difference between the Old Berlin and the New Berlin as well as the difference between the West and the East!

I was a bit upset because I booked a day later on Easyjet and the price of the ticket rose from £110 per head to £145 per head. This story teaches me that I have to book online instantly to avoid disappointment!

Which hotel am I stay?
As you know, I always look for cheap deals with reasonable quality. This time I have found a deal as well on Expedia.


Eurostars Hotel Berlin.
I have read some reviews on Tripadvisor and chose this hotel because it is a walkable distance to the other sightseeing places.

This time, our plan is different from the normal self-touring, we are going to join local tours operated by New Berlin Tours. We are still looking into the tours and decide which ones we are going to join. Will keep you all updated with the trip and write reviews..

More reviews on Munich will be updated soon as I am busy with exams at the moment.

Where should I go next?

I am trying very hard on writing my journey in Munich.. I am planning another trip in late June. Where should I go next?????

Donisl - Worth having dinner there?

Click the picture above to the official page
Donisl was a former wine celler "Kornmesserhaus" which has been making wine since 1315. It has been a traditional restaurant for more than 200 years.


This is the Menu



We ordered Pork Knuckle, beer, apple juice and a meat loaf


Donisl White beer

This is the Meat loaf

This is the pork knuckle with gravy. We love it so much. The two potato dumplings taste so yummy. They are sticky and bouncy, and a little bit sweet as well. I really miss the taste of the potato dumpling and I should start investigating how to make them!
Hope you enjoy this little tour of what we ate in Donisl. I highly recommend you to try this restaurant because it's not expensive (compared to others) and the food is very nice. It is a traditional restaurant and there is Bayern music from 6pm each night at the restaurant. You can really have the experience what the traditional German in the area used to have for years.

Review: A battle of Purederm masks =]

I am happy to join the review club of Natural Radiance and they have kindly sent me two Purederm masks to review.
I love Korean masks because they are cheap and thinner sheets of masks compared to Taiwanese one and Japanese ones. I hauled a lot of Dermal mask when I went to Korea last year ;)

I was sent two Aloe masks by Purederm. I have heard about this brand before. It is supposed to be similar to Dermal ones.
Both of them are collagen masks but the packageing is completely different. The one on the right has a similar packaging as the Dermal one.
I have used the left one first

When I cut opened the mask, I can see the mask has absorbed all the essence. The mask is so smooth and easy to apply.

Me with the mask on, and also there's an 'eye cap' for eye area as well.

After applying for 15 minutes, the mask is dried and left with a very thin sheet of mask on my skin. I really like it. and all the essence is absorbed into the skin. I am not sure whether you can see the actual mask on my skin in the next photo.


After applying the mask, I feel my face is smoother, more hydrating and it's bouncier. I really like this mask and highly recommend to you all to try it!
Then I tried the other mask the other day.


As you can see, the masks doesn't fit as good as the first one and this one is thicker than the first one.

After 15 minutes, I compared the result of my face and I found that it is not as moisturising and smooth compared to the first one. It does an OK job to moisture my skin but I would prefer the first one.
Hope this little battle can help you with more information about Korean masks and in this battle, the first mask I used won. :) I look forward to do more reviews about masks and share with you all soon :)

Glossybox anniversary box: Attractive?

My belated Glossybox has arrived this afternoon.
I don't really like Glossybox to change the carrier. Hermes is appalling around my area

This is their 1st Anniversary box. The lining is similar to the one in US


Have you spot any other differences?
Yes,,, the sticker has switched from the normal glossybox logo to a One


we each get a balloon to celebrate the birthday
First I noticed that I have two perfume samples

They are from Lolita

Then I notice a pair of false lashes. These are too dramatic and I would not wear it. I really hate beauty boxes with lashes because I don't normally wear false lashes and I hated them.
The third item is a hair product

Yes another hair product... I am going to give it to someone because I cannot use it.
This is a leave-on mask for all hair treatment by Uniqone.
The forth product is yet a more disappointing one:
Another shower gel.. I have so many shower gels from glossybox that I cannot finish them in half a year!

This is from Noble Isle. I have to say this smells very summery but I still have my Molten Brown from the March box unused =.=
Then I noticed another Weleda product..

I have received several Welda ones and I would really want to have something else.
Of coz there's a mirror where everybody gets,
and this is the overall picture of the box

Overall thoughts
I saw boxes with apivita and HD brows. I would really want to get it. It's life, isn't it when you get boxes with variations that not everybody gets what they want. To be honest, I am very disappointed with this box because most of the products I wouldn't use. I am going to unsubscribe Glossybox now because I think I have had enough of the bad moments with her.
I am going to sell this I think, please leave me messages if you are interested in this box.

SaSa Buddah Fest Special Offer

It was supposed to be a happy haul for all of us who lived abroad. Unfortunately, it wasn't a happy one after all.. I make this haul with my beloved friends and thought we could share the free shipping.
On Monday, I got 2 cards from Royal Mail that I have to clear the custom of £45, not very impressed when you received these cards.... I cleared the custom yesterday and got my parcels today. So if you happen to haul from sasa.com and don't want to pay for the custom, remember to buy something which is less than £15. They charged me 2 boxes of handling charge of £16 + 20% VAT for all the items I purchased.

I am going to go ahead to show you what I hauled

Kraice masks, Kose lifting mask, Hadalady masks

More Kanebo, sana, Hasamitsu masks (recommended by Giadabeauty)

Hello Kity and a Japanese branded one. Tried the old packageing.. would like to try this one too


Pressed powder in natural color. seems a bit dark for my skin colour, might do for summer :)
And the most exciting part is left to the last -
The latest invention of Korean Mask by Mask House - It's supposed to lift and slim your face


There is a mask, a V-shape tape and a measuring tape for you to experiment how much your skin has lifted after using the mask. I have read a lot of reviews from it and I am excited to try it out!

After the big haul, I must buy something for hubby.. This is what I got for him... I think this will last him for quite a while :)
hope you like the haul and tell me if you have tried any of the masks before.
