Despite almost being 27 years old this year..I've never gotten myself a proper manicure.I usually buff my nails myself using those nail buffers.2 weeks ago,after work I meet up with Qeema in Damansara near her work place to go and do our manicure and pedicure together.I bought a Groupon voucher which enables us to get a manicure/pedicure/foot spa & a hand paraffin treatment for just rm 38 at Roseanne Beauty Salon.What a steal!

| My sleepy face haha |
So how was the place and service?Again,this is not a sponsored post..haha The place was clean and the service was very good.So good that I had two people attending me at one time.One was doing foot spa on both of my feet while the other was doing my nails.I almost felt asleep through it haha.
Qeema was laughing when they were using the foot file to get rid of the calluses on our feet..because it was very ticklish!Oh,the hand paraffin thing was super hot.I've done it once years back and couldn't remember how it felt.But boy was it painful!
 |
| It was so hard to choose! |
The hardest part was choosing what colors to wear on our nails.All of the colors are from OPI.Qeema and I choose different colors for our fingernails and toenails.I choose a sparkly nude on my fingers(so that it's not too loud for work) and a super glittery gold for my toenails(it's been 2 weeks but it's still on my toenails..with no chip whatsoever!) since I always wear covered shoes for work.

The funny name of our
nail polish(top:mine,bottom:qeema) |
As usual,OPI's nailpolish always have funny names.I looked at the bottom of the bottles to see the names of the one that we chose...My nude one was named "Hands of my Kielbasa!" and the gold one was "OY-Another Polish Joke!"..hahah ookayyyy.

I was impressed by how impeccable they did my nails.If I did it myself,it would always be super messy and I've to use lots of nail polish remover to fix it.haha The manicurist didn't make any mistakes at all!
 |
| My pretty nude polish! |
Afterwards,we were given a cup of tea.Then we left for dinner!I loved how the spa didn't pester us to take any packages at all..they just bid us goodbye..phewww haha
 |
| Pretty pot of tea |
We choose D'Italiane for dinner and decided to share an appetizer and main course as we know that their portions are pretty huge.It was my second time having dinner there and I've to say their quality of food is just excellent!
We started our dinner with a tiger prawn and avocado salad.Which came with toasted pine nuts which added a little bit of crunch.The dressing was tasty and light too.We finished it pretty quickly.I loved their presentation as well.Because it was made into a heart shaped salad!:P
 |
| Cheese!! |
We ordered the smoked duck pizza and glad that we did(their menu is extensive so we had a long time to decide on what to order haha).It WAS SO DAMN GOOD!I love duck and so does Qeema..but it's rare to find it on a menu.And this was just excellent.Who would have known that smoked duck on pizza would taste so good?But it did!We managed to save four slices for Razin to eat(he was at home..haha) because he was the one who turned me and Qeema into eating duck.And he said it was really good.
 |
| So gooood! |
The pizza crust was just perfect and so was the sauce.I would order that again for sure!We ordered coffees after dinner but unfortunately the pictures were terrible haha..Qeema ordered cappuccino and I ordered their chocolate orange something..haha They even added orange zest on top of the whipped cream.It was so good!D'Italiane is definitely one of the top places that I'd recommend.:)
 |
| So many eye and face masks |
After dinner,Qeema and I wondered to Mask Slim and we bought a few masks.I've seen on Ingrid's Youtube channel on how My Beauty Diary's eyemasks are good.So I bought a box of it.Then we went to Sasa and suddenly I saw their rm10 for 4 masks deal.Damn!I just spend like..rm50 something on masks just now haha But I bought some from Sasa.Hence the picture above..haha.
More blog posts coming soon!Have a nice weekend people :)

| So many teas! |
Two Saturday's ago...Razin and I went to TWG(which stands for The Wellness Group) Tea at Sunway Pyramid for some tea and desserts.I've been meaning to go to TWG for so long but never got to since their previous outlets was quite far from Shah Alam.Plus my boyfriend is pretty much a homebody and he doesn't like going to places that is too far.haha
 |
| Having a tough time deciding what tea to choose! |
When we arrived there it was less than 5 minutes to 6pm.When I asked the front of the house guy if the high tea set is still available..he said no :( I was sad because that's what I really wanted.He asked me to take a look at the menu..we did but then I asked again if we really can't order the high tea set?Suddenly,a guy came out and he said they can make one last high tea set!!I guess he's the manager :) I was really happy!

| Shiny teapot--it's rm1499(they sell it!). |

| Smelling the tea leaves |
There were so many teas available at TWG.It was pages and pages long.We had the Tea Time Fortune set.I chose the Croque Imperial sandwich(Warm toasted sandwich with Gruyère cheese and smoked salmon)and scones(came with whipped cream and tea jelly).It also came with three choices of macarons.I choose the Bain De Roses tea,Earl Grey Fortune& chocolate and Camelot tea&Praline.
First we chose the Midnight Hour tea with our tea time set after getting the recommendation from our server Shann who was very knowledgeable on teas and so very helpful.I googled the description of the tea and I got this "a magical infusion of decaffeinated black tea delicately blended with fragrant tropical fruits".No wonder the name is Midnight Hour!:P

The croque imperial which was so goooddd!
|
The tea time set comes with a pot of tea and that amounts to about two cups of tea.So we ordered another teapot after we finish eating our sandwiches and scones.The sandwich was yummy and very more-ish.The scones were fluffy and I loved how they served it with tea jelly instead of the normal strawberry jam.

The macarons were one of the best I've tasted and I've tasted quite a few macarons!My favorite were the Bain De Roses macaron.It was so good!

| Such yummy macarons |
For the second pot of tea, the server suggested red teas and gave us three teas to smell and choose from.I don't remember what the other two was..but the boyfriend choose Red Christmas for us to drink.According to TWG,the Red Christmas tea is.."For those cosy holiday evenings, this TWG Tea theine-free red rooibos is a festival of flavours and spices, to reminisce and celebrate all year long."
Our server Shann was very accommodating that he even put the two teas in their canister and arrange the teapot next to it so that I could take the picture below.hahaha He was very nice!

It's suffice to say that TWG is THE place for tea lovers like me.You'll be spoiled by the choices of teas that's available.I would definitely come back again to TWG for another tea time treat!Excellent food,teas and service.:)
