Hey merry goers!

Do you know what is the secret to a kissable lips? Definitely plump and moisturized lips! So many girls dream of having Angelina Jolie's plump sexy lips but now it is no longer a dream thanks to LipAddict.


Founded by iSkin New York, LipAddict is the secret to get Angelina Jolie's signature lips without invasive procedures like lip fillers and botox which can cost a bomb plus all the side effects. Highlighting 4 key benefits:
  • Anti Aging
  • Instant Healing
  • Instant Moisture
  • Instant Plump
LipAddict is a lip treatment that works as a lipgloss too. Using only natural ingredients like Vitamin C, Vitamin E, Hyaluronic Acid, Marine Collagen and Organic Plant Extracts, LipAddict transforms dry chappy lips to younger, healthier and fuller lips. I still remember the days where lipgloss were all the rage to get plump and kissable lips. With LipAddict, a natural juicy pout is achievable when you use it on it's own or even on top of your favourite lip color to make your lips pop!


Choose from 12 different shades which leave your lips looking flushed and healthy. To create your own shades, you can opt to mix two or more colors together resulting in a much more pigmented finish. It has a glossy finish and a sweet minty feeling on your lips which reminded me of chewing gum or toothpaste. I didn't really mind it but it depends on your preference. 


Thanks to Butterfly Project, they collaborated with LipAddict for a mini workshop at Happ Cafe to educate us about LipAddict and how to get healthy and fuller lips. We also had Fibiee as the invited makeup artist for the day to demonstrate to us how to transform from a Day to Night look using LipAddict. She showed us how to create our own colors and also to use it as a lip topper which will make you shine at night. 

Here are some of the claims using LipAddict and my thoughts after using it:



  • A lip treatment designed to help you achieve younger, fuller, sexier pout without the cost and pain of lip injections
From my after photo, you can clearly see that my lip looks much healthier compared to the before. Since it also works as a treatment, using it every day actually helps your lips improve over time. The initial first few days, you might start to get slightly drier as your dead skin cells are exfoliating leaving behind healthier lips. LipAddict #213 is a clear lipgloss which you can use at night as a lip treatment before you sleep too.

  • Reduces appearance of fine lines hydrates, plumps and improves definition of lip contour
I do see my lips getting healthier over time although I have not been using it regularly. If you apply #213 Jewel above your lip line, it can help to reduce those fine lines and improve your lip contour. 

Tip: Exfoliate your lips regularly and apply LipAddict Night Treatment (#213 Jewel) before bed and wake up to smoother and healthier lips.

  • LipAddict lightweight molecular formula guarantees your lips won't be left with that annoying sticky sensation 
On the lips, it doesn't feel sticky but don't expect your hair not to get caught on your lips because it is still a lip gloss. Reapplication is needed especially for the pigmentation as it does fade off quickly. So after drinking or eating you'll definitely need to reapply. The end result actually looks natural and since it is a gloss you don't really have to worry about it going out of your lip line. 


In conclusion, I think that LipAddict does help to give you a fuller and healthier lip and works well as a high-end lip gloss due to the price. But since it is not just a regular lip gloss and actually helps to improve your lip overtime, for those of you who have dry chappy lips you can opt to try this out. This is definitely a better and safer option compared to cosmetic surgery.

Once again, thank you Butterfly Project and LipAddict for having me. I'm on my way to getting that perfect Angelina Jolie pout ;)

ASUS finally announced the groundbreaking NEW ZenBook Pro 15, a high-performance Windows 10 laptop for professionals which features a futuristic new ScreenPad. Perfect for multi-taskers like myself, the ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 revolutionizes the way users work and interact with their laptop.


The launch of the ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 was definitely memorable with the gigantic, larger than life ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 modal on stage. It clearly demonstrated how powerful the ZenBook Pro 15 with their ScreenPad and up to 8th Gen Intel Core i9 processors.


ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 Key Points:

  • ScreenPad with high-resolution auxiliary touchscreen with touchpad providing an exciting new way of working with a laptop
  • Up to 8th Gen Intel Core i9 processors, 16GB RAM, GeForce® GTX 1050 Ti and 1TB

Featuring a 15-inch 4K UHD PANTONE® Validated display, up to an Intel Core i9 processor and NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1050 Ti graphics the ZenBook Pro is designed for professional artists, designers, programmers, or any kind of creator who's excited by new technology.


The key highlight of the ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 is the ScreenPad which is the first to integrate Touchpad, Touch Screen and Extended Screen. The ScreenPad cleverly combines a touchpad with high-resolution, full-color touchscreen which offers novelty ways of interacting intelligently with both Windows app and dedicated programs called Screen Pad Apps. A simple press of the F6 function key toggles ScreenPad between touchscreen mode and touchpad mode.

ScreenPad specification:
–5.5" FHD (1920 x 1080) Super IPS+ display
–178 ̊ wide-view technology
–Glass-covered for fingerprint and smudge resistance

Special dedicated ScreenPad Apps run within the ScreenPad itself, with a variety of useful tools such as the Calculator, Music Player, NumKey and Launcher.

  6. ScreenPad Music Player
  7. ScreenPad Online Video Player
  8. ScreenPad Calculator 
  9. ScreenPad for Spotify
  10. ScreenPad Handwriting 


You know that feeling where you need to key in numbers and your laptop doesn't have a NumKey pad? For those laptops with NumKey pads, they are usually bulkier but now with the ZenBook Pro 15, you can actually use the ScreenPad to launch the NumKey pad instead making it a handy numerical keypad for data entry. You are also able to be more productive with the ScreenPad as selected desktop apps - at present limited to Microsoft Word, Excel and PowerPoint offer closer integration with ScreenPad and editing controls that change according to the app and task performed. 


Not only that, the Screen Extender mode allows ScreenPad to be used as an extension to the main display! You can use it as a second screen which does not affect your main screen. Via the browser extension, you can even use the ScreenPad YouTube Player for Chrome which actually puts the video playback controls for YouTube videos on the ScreenPad instead of taking up space on your main video.


Other than the ScreenPad, you can be amazed with the 4k Panel with 100% Adobe RGB (132% SRGB) screen. The ZenBook Pro 15 also boast of being Pantone Validated meaning the the built-in ASUS Calibration Technology on ZenBook Pro 15 provides color-accuracy tuning and uniformity compensation. This means, you can be sure the colors you’re seeing are accurate. With the wide color gamut, this makes even the creative professionals satisfied with the images produced on the ZenBook Pro 15.



Lastly, the ZenBook Pro 15 is built in with Harmon Kardom speaker which means you can clearly anticipate how the sound system will be when you play audio on the ZenBook Pro 15. I can just imagine blasting my beats on Spotify with the ZenBook Pro 15 or even enjoying some movie time.

In conclusion, I personally was attracted with the features of the ASUS ZenBook Pro 15 because I am a super multi-tasker and I would really benefit from the additional ScreenPad. Not only that, the design is sleek and I also like the 4K display with Pantone Validated because I can't think of how many times I have issues of my images in the laptop not being the same as in real life.
