I previously highlighted Adambeauty.com as an online cosmetics retailer of mainly Japanese beauty products. At that time, I had not bought anything from the site so did not have first hand experience.

However, I recently purchased something from the site and I must say, the experience has been reasonably good.

I decided that waiting for Kanebo’s new Coffret D’or collection to hit our shores was going to take too long. So, I hopped over to Adambeauty.com and purchased a palette from them.

The problem with shopping on Adambeauty, as I have pointed out before, is the fact that the site is predominantly in Chinese. So, if you can read Chinese characters, it’ll be easy for you. For someone like me who cannot, I have to rely on whatever little English is available, and intuition. It might be useful for Adambeauty to get someone to write copy of their site in English, at least for the shipping and payment terms. The rest of it is quite easy to guess.

If you are English language based and are wondering how to shop on Adambeauty.com I have prepared a simple tutorial here:-

You are in Malaysia and you have heard of the wonderful skincare of Kanebo Impress. You want to know where you can find Kanebo Impress skin care in Malaysia.

Well, the answer is:

• Isetan Kanebo counters - The Gardens, KLCC and Lot 10
• Kanebo International Salons - Bangsar, Starhill Gallery, Gurney Plaza

At present, the Kanebo Impress Skincare is not yet found at all Kanebo counters but only at the places mentioned above. You can read my on going reviews of this excellent skin care brand at My Women Stuff.

Now you know where to find Kanebo Impress, maybe its time for you to give this a try! You won’t regret it I’m sure.

Still wondering what to get for Valentine’s Day? Well, if you are comfortable with the idea, try lingerie. I don’t care what anyone says - receiving a prettily wrapped box with comfortable and subtly sexy lingerie in it can do wonders for a woman’s self esteem. It tells her that she’s sexy enough to cavort around in slinky little nightgowns and shorts sets. Not everyone feels the same way, I have to admit.

Then again, I’m talking about the ones that look like these:-

and not the sexy barely these ones that look like these:

Though of course if the latter piques your fancy and you or your partner likes it, then by all means, go for it! You can do your lingerie shopping online at Chicwear.com.my if you are male and aren’t comfortable with the idea of stepping into a lingerie store. Just find out your partner’s size and with a click of a mouse, a lovely red box will be sent by courier to her! So, fired any imaginations yet?
