Holika Holika in Bahrain !!





*Throws confetti everywhere* 

So 2 nights ago when I was out with my family, and I while I was looking out the car window I saw this:


and I freaked out !!

I had to make my dad turn around so I can check it out :)


about:
Holika Holika is a No.1 South Korean Beauty Product Brand that serves like a beauty magician. It has a "magic-like" secret on it's product ingredients that results into an enchanting being of beauty :)




products :
MAKE UP (Starters, Primers, BB creams, CC creams, Foundations, Blushers, Highlighters, Eyebrow tint, Eyebrows, Eyeliners, Mascara, Eyeshadow, Lip balm, Lipstick, Lip tint)
FACIAL SKIN CARE (Cleansing cream, Cleansing foams, Cleansing Oil, Facial soaps, Peeling massage creams, Face packs for acne/pore care/brightening, Sleeping packs, Toners, Emulsion, Essence, Moisturizers, Mask sheets, Mask packs, Tightening mask pack)
BODY CARE (Body Cleansers, Body Scrubs, Body Lotions, Body fat burning, starter, cream, mist)
HANDS AND FEET (One shot peeling, Hand mask treatment, Foot mask treatment, Hand creams, Foot creams)
HAIR CARE (Hair treatment, Hair essence, Hair glossy/shiny, Hair wax, Hair mist)

this is what they said in their facebook pageBut they still don't have a lot of products yet, because they opened like a month ago, but owner said that 2 shipments are on the way :) she also said that You can always ask her if you wanted something specific and she'll try to order it for you.


Price:
the products are a bit overpriced, but I think it is okay since the rent is expensive, and honestly I wouldn't mind spending that extra money to get my stuff immediately (because shipping normally takes a month or so).


Costumer service: 
the owner and the lady working there are very sweet and really friendly, as I said before, if you are looking for a product and they weren't carrying it she'll order it for you, she also translates, the instructions and other text on the package and puts it on the website, which is very helpful.
she also got my contact number and she'll text me when the new shipment arrive.

and the best thing about the store is that they write the price on the products and on the website -which most stores don't do- and I find that very convenient, because there is nothing I hate more than going to the cashier and realize I don't have enough money.


Final note: I guess I'll be a regular customer there (well.. not THAT regular because with korean products a little bit goes a long way -I've been using the 3 seconds Starter Vita Complex twice a day since august 2013 and the bottle still half full!!)

also being able to test the product before I buy it is a plus

Memories Memory: Family outing

Umm.. Hi ~

I am really sorry I haven't been posting lately, But if you read my post about University & nightmares, you probably know that I've been so stressed lately (even though everything is going well for, which is weird).. also I've been so busy lately Because my BFF from when I was 5 started talking to me, and I kind of spent my whole time talking o him, until he said he have a crush on me since we were kids, I don't know what I am supposed to do now (any advice/tips would be appreciated)

So, to relax a little bit and forget about all this stuff, my sister suggested we go on a picnic :) 
we wend to Dohat 'Arad, which is park and a natural reserve, and it have the longest walkway in Bahrain (3km), and I proud to say that I walked the whole distance in an hour ^___^   (I stopped halfway to take a toilet/water break)

 this is the beginning of the walkway :)


as I mentioned above, this is a natural reserve, a lot of migrating birds land here to rest, there was also a huge flamingo flock there, but because I was taking pictures with my phone I couldn't capture it (there is no zoom function X(



I was pretending to be a pirate while walking there (for some reason, wooden bridges always remind me of pirates).


even though it is fall now, the sun was still hot (34C/93F), but thanks god there was some cool breeze every now and then.




After successfully finishing the walk, we were heading home..

the sunset was nice today :)


 but instead of going home, we were wandering in the streets.


 then we went to duraz beach, it is a fishing area so swimming is not allowed there.



 the sunset was beautiful there.



 my brother acting like a hero just because he was able to keep his balance on the rock X)


my dad started skipping stones, it is his favourite thing to do on the beach.



I wasn't able to snatch a photo of it, but there was a group of fishes (mullet) jumping around.



 my brother photobombing, and my parents.



 He really likes standing on rocks ^___^
he was pointing to a single star on the sky, asking me what it was, and according to my science teacher in forth grade, this is not a start it is a planet (Jupiter) she said we can be able to see it with naked eye around sunset because it have more than 50 moons, and she said you can tell it is not a start because starts twinkle.
I wonder if it is obvious on other countries, would you like to check and tell me ?

then it got late, and we came back home.


TBH, I do feel better after going out and having fun, and I do feel proud of myself for doing some exercise ^___^
and this time, I am not going to neglect my blog, I pinky promise :3


P.S: please excuse the crappy pictures, Because I used my phone camera.
