Mixing things up is hardly a foreign concept in Malaysia; this is after all a country of diverse ethnicity where Malay, Chinese and Indian live in a melting pot that is endlessly fascinating, something that L’OCCITANE, the leading French beauty company from Provence, is able to relate to quite easily with its varied and nature orientated take on how its beauty products are derived. Founded in 1976, L’OCCITANE is now a well-established and renowned international brand with presence in over 80 countries and with 1,899 stores worldwide.

Ever think of not spending a fortune for gel manicure at professional salon? Feeling extremely fussy to remove gel nail polishes?

There's nothing strange anymore where's beauty meets fashion. In fact, they've created sparkles and flames in both fashion and beauty industry globally.

For example, L'Wren Scott was teaming with French renowned skincare brand Caudalie and US make-up Bobbi Brown lately, Estee Lauder x Derek Lam Collection, MAC x Proenza Schouler collection (I'm not sure whether it'll launch in Malaysia); and even Marc Jacobs comes out with his own beauty line. NARS Cosmetics has just announced their upcoming collaboration with 3.1 Phillip Lim to produce nail polishes. 

Yup, I know you guys have been noticed about numerous yellow ads in public and also some great BigBang (international ambassador) and Yuna (Malaysia) ambassador pictures. KakaoTalk, the world’s first mobile social platform makes its official entry in Malaysia, promising users an experience of epic proportions. Having cemented its position as ‘the smart connecter’ in native South Korea, KakaoTalk is leading a revolution to transform the way Malaysians communicate across multiple platforms within the mobile social ecosystem.

I'm not sure whether I'm kind of insensitive or is it the amount of mosquitoes flying around for "food" is increasing rapidly? Heard of many people around me were detected dengue fever and I saw lotsa FB posts complaining about "mosquitoes". Well, do they come in "seasonal" or people are actually lack of anti-mosquitoes breeding precautions?

As I know, mosquitoes love to breed and highly active in humid areas, especially tropical countries like Malaysia. Mostly female mosquitoes need bloods for their eggs; and they're able to survive from 2 weeks until up to 8 months depends on different species and environment. I was kind of shock after found out that some mosquitoes can actually live that long... yikes.

Probably you may not noticed much mosquitoes flying around in cool weathers or rainy days. Hot, sunny day can actually triggers mosquitoes to hunt for food and perfect for breeding. If you hate them sucking your blood, please make sure that you do your part to avoid them - keep humid area dry and pour unused waters on the pots.

Lastly, be cool and stay healthy.
