The Coolest Eye Drops in Town

Before this week, one of the amazing item that you can find in Japan but not Malaysia is their eye drops called Rohto. Since I start reading Japanese fashion magazine, I found that the models recommended Rohto eye drops so frequently that almost everyone of them carry a bottle of Rohto eye drops with them where ever they go. 

After all these years of waiting, Rohto has finally arrived in Malaysia with the 1st cooling eye drops in Malaysia market. Finally I felt relate to all those Japanese models already!

Rohto Cool

Founded in year 1909, Rohto is world's largest eye care brand as well as number 1 brand of eye drops both in Japan and worldwide. This time with the unique cooling sensation, Rohto has launch a series of sensational eye drops in Malaysia market for the first time.

There are 3 variants of eye drops that are being launch in Malaysia which cater to different needs when it comes to eye care. There are:

• Rohto Cool (Tired Eye Relief - Cool & Refreshing): Moisturizes your eyes immediately, its cooling effect will stimulate natural tear in your eyes to soothe and clear your eyes in just seconds. 
• Rohto Aqua (Tired Eye Relief - Gentle & Moisturizing): Dryness and discomfort whether it's due to long exposure of technology devices or contact lens, this eye drop can moisture your eyes and clear up your blurry vision.
• Rohto Dry Aid ( Advanced Dry Eye Relief - Restores Moisture): With 3 different layers of tear film being restore, this Dry Aid effectively relieves dry eye symptoms and its advanced formula only suitable for non-contact lens user.

I bet there are some people like me who thought eye drops are for people who wear contact lenses or with eye irritations, little did I know that people who strained their eyes due to long hours of digital-devices exposure and environmental irritants such as smoke, dust, haze will make our eyes weary and needed eye drops for caring our weary eyes.



Rohto eye drops are manufactured under strict and super hygienic condition that all ingredients in making a bottle of eye drops are filter-sterilized whereas bottle, cap and nozzle are gamma sterilization or electron beam sterilization. Its transparent and slim bottle design is another plus point of Rohto Eye Drops as users are allowed to see if the content has changed colour or become cloudy, unlike other eye drops brands that have opaque bottle design which users cannot see the condition of contents, and probably did not noticed the changes in colour or cloudiness.




Since Rohto Cool eye drops is the first in Malaysia market which has cooling sensation, we were asked to try it out during the launch and my heartbeat goes super fast as I'm not a frequent user of eye drops and I'm afraid that the cooling sensation of Rohto Cool is going to sting my eyes badly. The fear of unknown can be quite intimidating but when I see fellow bloggers around me tried it out and claiming the cooling sensation soothes and relaxes eyes immediately, it boost my confidence to try it without fear.

Nowadays, I carry this bottle of Rohto Cool around with me everywhere I go! I even urge my friends to give it a try by handling them my bottle of eye drops (A bit unhygienic to share eye drops I think but good things are meant to be shared among friends! Just make sure you clean the nozzle with clean tissue wipes) and it's so fun to see their facial expression when the cooling eye drops got into their eyes, and they loved it! Especially my mum, she asked a bottle of eye drops from me immediately! Lol. 

I instilled 1 drops to each of my eyes, sometimes midday noon, and most of the time is during night time when my eyes are tired and sore due to long hours of staring my phones and usage of laptop. It is the way to care my for eyes and I'm glad that now I have Rohto eye drops with me!

Jean

Went to a 2 days 1 night Staycation trip with my girl Jean over the weekend. It was a relaxed and fun-filled mini getaway. Our schedule consist of eat-checkin-massage-eat-sightseeing-eat-sightseeing-sleep-eat-eat-checkout! LOL! Look at how many times we've ate in less than 24 hours. Crazy girls.




Well anyway while I was waiting for this girl to do her makeup early in the morning, the sunlight that came in from the windows, the white bedsheets and pillows, her good-looking face, literally everything in that fresh crisp morning creates a picture-perfect view and I was like "why not snap some of her photos while she's doing her makeup, it could be fun" and voilà, I snapped these. Probably the only thing missing in these photos is that I wish I could have a better camera on hand that moment. 

Captured by iPhone5S with VSCO post editing, mainly using F2 filters with slight exposure/contrast adjustment.

I used to ask Peiyue to be my model, do her makeup by myself and take tons of photos of her! We would laugh at the photos but it was fun. I guess one of my hidden hobby is taking photos of my pretty friends. This sounded less weird in my head. lol. 

Tokyo Kitchen, Berjaya Times Square, KL

"Your startup disk is almost full." Received this notification on my MacBook Pro so I decided to force myself look into my iPhoto and delete those unwanted shots/ multiple shots/ selfies to clear up some space for my laptop, and then I discovered these photos which marks me and Peiyue's visit to Tokyo Kitchen located inside Berjaya Times Square. 

Although I'm not even sure whether the restaurant still exist today because I haven't been to Times Square for quite some time, but these photos are the remnants of fun loving memories and I think of sharing my happiness on my blog. All happening on one lovely day in November, 2013.

I remembered by then Tokyo Kitchen just opened at Berjaya Times Square, hence we decided to pay a visit before our shopping spree. lol.

Pretty missy

The cool corner of Tokyo Kitchen - Ema (Wooden wishing plaques) that you normally seen inside the shrines of Japan. 

These are the food that we had that day, which I have no memory of how they taste like. Most probably average taste because if they were tasty, I could've remember, right? lol.

Chuka Kurage, one my favourite Japanese appetiser.

garlic fried rice

Ala Carte Sushis

Then I eyed at this super long sashimi dish and thought it would be fun to take photo with! Although my parents always advice "Don't play with your food" since young but no harm do it once in awhile right? Hahaha.

Super long can!

And then I became the legendary long tongue woman!
And yes, I still had long hair back then!
Hahahahaha

Matcha ice cream and brownies for dessert

OOTD shots, 3 years back!

Since there's this Ema wall corner inside the restaurant, I guess no harm writing my wishes on it. Although my wish didn't came true. lol. 

It is always fun trying out new places with my girls and I'm glad that we're still who we were back then today! You don't need a big bunch of friends in life, all you need is just a few that wouldn't turn their back on you, and I'm glad I found them in my life.

From Blueberry to Strawberry

Literally from blue hair to pink hair. Thank you Jolleen and the help of SC I managed to have this dreamy colour of pink for Chinese New Year! To be honest I always think pink colour is too sweet for me I can't imagine myself in pink apparels at all it is just too sweet and not me. Ewww! lol.

Then here I am, roaming around the streets of KL and events with pink hair. lol. Life's unpredictable eh. Wanna try more colours before I go back to the norm. 

As usual, bleach is such a bitch. 

It has been months since I last touch up my hair roots so it required bleaching to get an even colour of pink. As time goes by my scalp was weaken by the bleaching process, hence it is harder to let the bleach stay on my hair for a longer period... Hence the slightly uneven hint of orange of the end result this round. 

Using EVO's Fabuloso Pro for this round too!
I find that these two colour combination nice too? Next colour perhaps?

Fall in love with the colour immediately!

Life-size anime character lololol. Thank you so much for my hair colour! Now my life is complete hahahaha. Well I guess this will be the last few drastic colours on my hair since I'm planning of growing my hair and bleaching isn't helping at all. lol. Many of my friends look down on me when I tell them I'm planning of growing my hair so I have to prove them wrong lolololol. 

Here's a vid of the hair changing process: 

I'm a fucking unicorn babeh! lol.

I'm patiently waiting the right time for my next hair colour change! What colour shall it be?
