THE ALLEY BATU PAHAT | REVIEW

June 19, 2019

Assalamualaikum and hello!

Well, everyone's talking about milk tea lah kan? And then there's a lot of newly opened, unheard of milk tea brands in market too!

I personally love, lovvveee bubble milk tea. I used to drink lots of it, and I only bought this cretain brand because it's super cheap hahah! But that was before. I figured out that the franchise has increased their milk tea price (and the only thing that changed was the cup....), i stopped buying boba milk tea 🤣

Brown Sugar Deerioca Milk

Okay now let's talk about The Alley!

||     THE ALLEY BATU PAHAT          

The franchise in Batu Pahat is located in Taman Desa Botani (full address at the end of post, as usual 😉). This cafe is quite huge and offers outdoor seats too. So kalau nak udara segar bugar & taknak air cond boleh dok luaq okeh!


The ambience of this Taman Desa Botani is damn nice. It's actually a newly developed business place but the main target market is Chinese. There's also travel shop, Mentai Sushi, Dance academy, RM 1.90 shop, and I just figured out The Alley opened their branch here!



The café is honestly really nice, but we stayed outside since its was super full inside. The queue was quite long. I wish they put more English in their menu as the pamphlets we get from the counter was all written in Chinese 😅 Besides that, there's nothing to complain hahahah


||     THE MILK TEA          

Personally, even the menu are written in Chinese, it's pretty easy to order since the drink is not customised.


My husband wanted to order their Brown Sugar Deerioca Creme Brulee Milk but it was out of stock so we just got ourselves Brown Sugar Deerioca Milk and Royal No.9 Milk Tea for mom.

This is my honest review, and we paid for the drinks ourselves haha:

Brown Sugar Deerioca Milk
• Fresh milk is used
• Refreshing but if you dislike fresh milk taste, this is not for you
• I don't really fancy this but it's not a bad thing.
• Since I don't really fancy fresh milk (but I still enjoy it!), the bobba & brown sugar really helps me to enjoy. Besides, I pay a lot for a cup of milk. If I don't drink, really wasted laaa haha

Royal No.9 Milk Tea
• Milk tea is tasty!
• I can't say it's worth the price since it's a bit overpriced but it is tasty.
• The bubble and the brown sugar makes it better.

The Bubble
• Chewy, and texture is not too hard but not too soft
• Sweet
• Full of flavor. Damn nice I really love the bubble!
• It matches the brown sugar used. Serius sedap bubble diorang!

||     HONEST REVIEW          

So here's my honest review
⭐️ 4.0 overall.
⭐️ Love the ambience & the customer service is not bad
⭐️ just hope to see more pamphlets & offer in English rather than all Chinese
⭐️ They don't have halal cert yet, but they are alcholol free, pork free and lard free
⭐️ If you ask me to summarise my experience, I'd say- the drink was okay but I love the bubble (or some people call them pearl)

Will I come again?
Yes, because of the pearl (for now because there are lots of new milk tea that I haven't try). And, my husband wanted to try the creme brulee so why not come again kan. Price wise, quite pricey la tapi why no if it's once in a while kan.

Will I recommend it to my friends?
If they just wanna chat and hang out and have extra budget, not hungry, this is the place. The milk tea is tasty but it's not the level that I can say I want more and more of it considering the price (the price doesn't meet my expectations for the drink but it's still tasty. Just not the best hehe). But this could make it to my fav top 5 milk tea. Haha!

DEAR, KLAIRS FRESHLY JUICED VITAMIN E MASK | REVIEW

April 30, 2019



So, vitamin E cream.

I wasn't really familiar with Vitamin E cream (or it's function) as most people around me tend to focus on vitamin C since it makes your skin fairer.

So I was just window shopping when I saw Klairs Vitamin E clream, but this time in mini size. It was just RM 38 and I was so excited as I really wanna try out this cream as the reviews are good. But I never get the free sample hahah!

FRESH SUGAR TINTED LIP TREATMENT | REVIEW

April 17, 2019

Assalamualaikum and hello~

same intro, always huh? hahah!

Okayyy finally, a lip product! I actually receive this lip treatment from Chanwon as I won #Chanwondotcom yearly giveaway! (love you, Chanwon!). This lip treatment balm is seriously so good that I need to make a review on this!

||     FIRST IMPRESSIONS (and some tips for dry lips)          

Truth is, besides dry skin, my lips are super dry too. And, I kinda always kopek the dried patches and yep, my lips will bleed. Even my husband forward an article of "what not to do when you have dry lips". HAHAH! 

The lip treatment is super soft, and a little goes a long way. Trust me. I never put it on my lips the way people usually wear lipstick. I just dap it on and use my fingers to spread it all over my lips. The color, even though it's pink (I dislike pink lip color. prefer coral or red, reriously), it looks great! 




Tips for dry lips :
➨ Drink lots of water
➨ Don't lick your lips, it'll get dryer
➨ Don't pick your dry lips! Instead, put on lip balm to soften the flakes and then take it off when its soft enough
➨ Put on lip treatment/ balm before you apply your lipstick, especially matte lip products
➨ Exfoliate. Use sugar + honey or just use wet towel. I just use wet towel and to do this, make sure that your lips has been moist for a long time. I usually do this after I take a bath.

||     THE LIP TREATMENT          

Okay this might look like just another lip balm but trust me, it's not. It's a tinted lip treatment balm and I really love this! It moisturizes, tinted and treat dry lips really well.


Mine's a gift, maybe that's why it's small. but the one sold online is as huge as normal lipstick

My worst nightmare when it comes to dry lips happened when I was experiencing my first winter in South Korea. I only bring my normal lip balm, which I thought was enough. But my lips turned reaaaallly dry and it even bleeds. 

This doesn't happen in Malaysia since we don't have winter here, but I work in an air-conditioned office so my lips tend to be dry a lot faster than usual. 


Sometimes I apply this lip treatment before I sleep and I woke up with really moisturized (and pink) lips the next morning. Feeling baby face sangat kahkah~

||     THE INGREDIENTS          

The product I have doesn't state the ingredients on the packaging. But it do state that this lip treatment contains SPF15. So here's the ingredients from FRESH website: 
CERA ALBA (BEESWAX), RICINUS COMMUNIS (CASTOR) SEED OIL, SIMMONDSIA CHINENSIS (JOJOBA) SEED OIL, HYDROGENATED OLIVE OIL DECYL ESTERS, ETHYLHEXYL METHOXYCINNAMATE, VITIS VINIFERA (GRAPE) SEED OIL, BUTYL METHOXYDIBENZOYLMETHANE, PARFUM (FRAGRANCE), COPERNICIA CERIFERA (CARNAUBA) WAX , PERSEA GRATISSIMA (AVOCADO) OIL, LIMNANTHES ALBA (MEADOWFOAM) SEED OIL, PASSIFLORA INCARNATA SEED OIL, SUCROSE TETRASTEARATE TRIACETATE, ROSA DAMASCENA FLOWER WATER, RIBES NIGRUM (BLACK CURRANT) SEED OIL, TOCOPHEROL, ASCORBYL TETRAISOPALMITATE, ASCORBYL PALMITATE, AMMONIUM GLYCYRRHIZATE, VANILLIN, BHT, POLYGLYCERYL-3 POLYRICINOLEATE, PROPYL GALLATE, LIMONENE, CITRAL, BENZYL ALCOHOL, LINALOOL, GERANIOL, CITRONELLOL.

||   MY REVIEW          

Pros:
♫ Improves lips condition
♫ Protect lips from cracking
♫ Treating cracked lips
♫ Smells good, like some buttery food
♫ SPF 15
♫ I literally don't need any lipstick since this balm is tinted
♫ Secure packaging

Cons
♫ The price is quite expensive (you can get a lot of Vaseline with this)
♫ The balm stick kinda melts a bit if it's in hot weather. Seriously.

Will I re-purchase?
Maybe if I have extra $$$, and found nothing cheaper that works as great

Will I recommend this to my friends?
Yes, if they wanna try new lip treatment and doesn't mind spending more money (It's RM103 on Sephora)





Till then,
Thank you for reading this entry!
