Mr Postman dropped by for a visit today and I received 2 packages. One was from lovely Kimoko and the other was from Gingerdip. I won Kimoko’s #9 Giveaway last week. She was really nice and gave me some additional skincare and cosmetics goodies as well. As some of you know, I’m such a skincare & make-up junkie so I’m overjoyed to have so many new products to try out.

I love receiving packages in the mail!
Kimoko has included some very generous samples for me to try such as ELF Shimmering Facial Whip, milk masks, some samples from Benefit etc on top of Hylexin Serious Dark Circle Treatment from the giveaway itself. Thanks so much Kimoko!

Look at all the goodies Kimoko has included for me

Stuff I ordered from Gingerdip. She gave me 2 additional samples.
Wei Liang came by to drop me a belated birthday gift as well. I’m so touched! He actually remembered my birthday.
I love the Sheaffer pen. It’s beautiful. I’ll definitely be dropping by the store to have it engraved. =D

Beautiful gift box

Gorgeous pen in rose pink from Sheaffer
Do you know that there’s a new magazine in Singapore? I happened to know it from Kimoko’s blog. My TLB (My The Luxury Booklet) is a new magazine whichi s similar to CLEO and they are having a roadshow at Bugis this week. I purposely drop by to get a copy. =p One thing I really like about TLB is that it doesn’t just show the product advertisements there but tell us why the products are good.

My The Luxury Booklet
It comes with a bunch of goodies. There’s a packet of green tea as well but Chewy drank it on the spot before I even have the chance to take a photograph of it.
There’s the new BodyShop lip stick, Complete contact lens solution, Lioele mask, Hankook product’s samples etc. It’s quite worth it for SGD 6.

Thank you! It’s a bit like yours and how yours reflects you. Yours is a lot better than mine though. :P
I always have problems with PNGs and file size. when I make icons or something small, I save them as PNG because it’s not as bad as having a large PNG. I prefer optimised JPEGs although some screens don’t really display JPEGs properly.
Wow, you must have been so excited to get all that in the mail! I love getting any kind of mail, even if it’s just a letter.
That pen is too cute. @_@
I remember reading a few CLEO magazines. Not really my thing, but they’re interesting to read every once in a while. Too bad Chewy had all the tea! XD Gotta love samples though.

I haven’t encountered any problems with displaying JPG files so far. PNG might have a transparency issue on older browsers. I now using a Photoshop trick so that my GIF looks like a PNG on my layout. It’s difficult to get individual images with shadows to display nicely on layouts unless we are using PNG.
I love receiving mails too as long as there are not bills.

Aww I love post, you got such great items! I am so jealous!
6 September, 2009 at 3:07 pm
I just realised that we got the same set of smilies; noktahhitam sure does make wonderful ones
Congrats! You know what if I get packages in my mail I’d get really excited and tear the paper in bits (cos I don’t have the patience when it comes to packages lol)
I saw Benefit! <333 I love Benefit not only cos their packaging designs are awesome, also cos their products are wonderful
6 September, 2009 at 3:31 pm
Quite a number of bloggers are using this set of smilies. It’s just too adorable.
Me too, I’m really excited when receiving packages in the mail. But I always take a photo of it before ripping the packaging off, some of them are wrapped up too nicely. :P
I haven’t tried any of Benefit’s products before. This is a good time for me to try. Seems like it’s really good huh?
6 September, 2009 at 5:01 pm
I agree, this set of smilies = adorable
My mother uses Benefit products too so I can leech off from her most of the time haha. I really like the lip buffer, I think the product is called Dr Feel Good? I think
If you have dry lips like mine (
) it smooth-ens your lip surface, much like a nail buffer except you’re buffing your lips

Hey Dayna, remember me? I was browsing around looking for Liese reviews and I saw your blog! Wow it’s been a long time and I’ve been searching your blog around but you disappeared =D Glad to see you again!
6 September, 2009 at 12:53 pm
Your name sounds really familiar. I disappeared for a year plus in 2007/2008 but I’m back now.
I’m so glad to see familiar faces from back then. I’m off to check out your blog.

6 September, 2009 at 7:54 am
I love getting things in the mail!
I wish I had friends who would send me things. Lovely items! They’re all so happy-looking.
6 September, 2009 at 3:18 am
Oh wow. I absolutely love getting packages and stuff in the mail. I’m going to have to check those sites out. I’ve been entering and entering different things trying to win something, haha.
The magazine is cool. I’m a little lost though? Did you go pick it up somewhere or you order it and get that stuff or..? Haha.
Congrats on winning though! And the pen is cute!
Btw, do you accept affiliates
6 September, 2009 at 12:37 pm
I bought the magazine at the road show and it came with the free goodies bag.
I accept link exchanges, drop me an e-mail if you are interested.

Aw, he-he. Actually, you can do anything with the bear template: Pixel, vector, scribble or just doodle away. Anything that involves opening some sort of graphic editing program.
I just downloaded a quite pretty pixel font yesterday, which I ended up using on the 1st place winner’s nametag.
6 September, 2009 at 1:33 am
Oh wow, look at all those wonderful goodies! How cool.
The pen your friend gave you is so lovely. And the wrapping was gorgeous! lol
I love getting packages from people, especially friends. I am going to start sending postcards to people because I know the happy feeling I get when I get a card in. I figured I’d share the joy! :P

Look at those goodies from TLB magazine. That TLB magazine sure knows how to get readers’ attention.
and if I convert the price to IDR, I guess it’s not too expensive. =D
6 September, 2009 at 12:15 am
I agree. They sure have good marketing techniques. Without the goodies, it’s kind of expensive. The magazine isn’t that thick even though it has some substantial content.
5 September, 2009 at 11:49 pm
That is indeed a lot of things. You’re not the only one that loves receiving packages in the mail!
I have to congratulate you for winning that give-away. I’d be over the moon if I ever won such an amount of products!
(Whoa, the pen is gorgeous! As well as the case. Talk about luxury.
)
5 September, 2009 at 11:38 pm
Wow congratulations! The prizes that she offered are really good! I actually want to be a skin care junkie I’m just well lazy. And all these products! I love them! I’ve never heard of that magazine, it sounds cool, wow Singapore has some great stuff XD
WEll, have fun with your new ski care and magazine goodies :P
