Rant : buying Amino Mason Sakura Edition (Moist formula)

 

This is a rant.

Do you know how difficult it is to buy this beautiful set of shampoo and treatment from Amino Mason?

Was priced RM104 from original price of RM280 🥲

 Yes, please put your eye ball back into the socket because it is officially out of stock, thank you. The Malaysia’s distributor themselves called me to inform this. How is it possible?

Because, I bought the last INTACT piece they have, with a big chunk from the dispenser broken. (Provided it they are not lying) 

As you know, I am late bloomers in the beauty journey, so I don’t know much about Amino Mason. It already in Malaysia market since 2018. I only discovered it during this gaga year, 2020 when Shopee give out RM15 voucher from SimpleBeaute (they are the Malaysia’s AM distributor). I bought sunscreen and Amino Mason Sakura trial set. 

As many has claimed, it does work INSTANTLY. After shampooing, I noticed my hair doesn’t clumped together as they always had. Then I put the treatment lotion to my hair for about 1 minute doing squat and when I’m done and ready to wash it, it leaves my hair non-fussily. No slippery business like other conditioner conditioned my bathroom floor. ANDDDD drying my thicc hair is not cramping my arm anymore. ≧◉◡◉≦

I heard that our hair and scalp type is like our skin. My skin type is normal to dry. The set that I tried is Moist which formulated to cater dry hair. IT DOES WORK ON MY HAIR. Another formula is SHINE and it’s suitable for oilier type skin and scalp.

Back to rant. So I immediately search on Guardian since Shopee seller SimpleBeaute did not have stock in their hand. I excitedly use the voucher for first time online purchase on Guardian with minimum spend of RM100. I don’t usually spend more than RM50 for a bottle of product so this is a very big deal. 

Priced wise!

Here is the chronology of events:

23/10/2020 : order and payment

.

26/10/2020: Guardian reply my email saying product is out of stock and i have to wait 1 week to receive product from supplier. 

30/10/2020 : Guardian emailed me saying they will refund.

5/11/2020 : I checked on the website and I can see the is still available. I emailed back to Guardian saying product is still viewable as available in their website. They didn’t reply.

Check out the date above. It is 5/11/2020

Luckily refund is credited to my bank account not long afterwards. Only took 7 days if I’m not mistaken. Frustrating isn’t it? I even redeemed my first Guardian voucher! :( 

As I cherished the mini sets I have, I keep on hunting AM Sakura on Shopee. Right before 12.12 Shopee Sale,  SimpleBeaute once again restock and priced at normal price. Then miracle took part. Hahaa. They give 50% discount, not even 12.12 yet! I have to delay purchase since I was too busy and suddenly it’s sold out again. WHY. Then, 10/12/2020 it resurfaced in my shopee cart and I check out right away. Hah!

Yesterday, 16/12/2020 SimpleBeaute called me and informed me that stock is broken. The jar is made out of glass. So they want to refund. I want the shampoo so badly that I ask for product replacement. They then send me this picture asking if I will be okay with the broken cap. They also mentioned that sakura edition will stop production and NEW PRODUCT WILL BE LAUNCHED ON FEBRUARY 2021! (♡⸃ ◡ ⸂♡)

Can you see the missing chunk on the pump? 
 

So I said OK while my heart is sad and happy at the same time. I want the pink jar be ideal hence I sad. I want the magic formula, hence I still happy. I bought them at 50% discount, claimed their voucher and redeemed my Shopee coins, hence I’m sooo happy. However I still think, WHY they don’t process right away after order paid before things got broken, before things got out of stock? Any uncovered truth? Hmm.. Well, I expect today courier service will attempt delivery to my house. Hopefully it does not break on the way. 

After payment done, usually Shopee algo will show more about the same products isn’t? Then I saw resellers. Made my blood boiled. Why don’t you use them on your hair and add the perfect pink pump-lid into collection? Why must you re-sell? Why must you made the Moist edition OOS?? Ughh..

That's it for now. I know many of my friend no longer visit & read my blog. So I feel safer to vent here. Hehe.. I’m not a fluent writer or speaker. Not even an avid reader. I only OK with listening. So I think writing here in my blogger account, where no one is reading is a filler in my boring-busy life. If anyone is reading my rant till end, kindly drop me emojis ya. Might want to convert my blog to lifestyle blog~ see ya!

Akhir tahun 2018

Salam. 

Hari ni terbaca suatu perkongsian dari seseorang. Tergerak untuk menuliskannya di blog penuh sawang ini.

.

Dear all,

Some sharing for this evening:-

1) What changes have there been in your life since this time last year? Think about the events that have taken place.

2) What have you accomplished?

3) What decisions have you made? 

4) And most importantly, how much you have grown as a person?

Try to make changes by following your intuition.  Even though it seems stressful and sometimes painful, change means growth!

Happy thinking 😉

Alhamdulillah. Tahun 2017 saya baru sahaja melangkah ke alam pernikahan setelah habis belajar. Terlalu banyak perkara besar yang disulami suka duka berlaku di tahun 2017. Banyak perkara yang dipelajari terutamanya hal ehwal rumahtangga dan karier. Saya korbankan hati, perasaaan dan karier demi suami tanpa dia minta. Alhamdulillah, tak sangka ia suatu jalan yang sukar dan 'rewarding' di tahun 2018. Menjawab soalan pertama. ^^

Jadi setelah tinggal di rumah suami tanpa sebarang pekerjaan tetap, akhirnya impian sejak di matrikulasi terlaksana iaitu menjadi surirumah sepenuh masa sambil menjadi seorang guru. Pelik kan impian saya itu? Alhamdulillah ia terlaksana. Cuma ia dilaksanakan pada dan bermula pada Februari 2018 hingga ke hari ini. Sekarang ini, saya menunggu pelajar saya sampai dengan menulis perkongsian ini. Hehe. Menjawab soalan kedua. ^^

Bukan mudah jadi seorang surirumah sepenuh masa yang terletak di mindanya pelbagai perkara dan idea yang bersarang. Saya sibukkan diri sebagai guru rumah dan segala tugasan surirumah yang biasa diletakkan padanya. Mengimbangkan karier dan rumahtangga hanyalah soalan yang ditanya pada seorang isteri dan/atau ibu, bukan kepada suami/bapa. Kerana mereka diimbangi oleh isteri/keluarga yang membantu. Wanita, begitulah, pendokong bagi seorang pelindung. Cuma perlindungan itu bukanlah 24 jam kan.. manakala mendokong itu sesuatu yang berlaku 24 jam. Haha. Untuk menangkis hunusan kata-kata dari ramai orang, saya membuat keputusan untuk berusaha sedaya upaya mengikhlaskan hati agar tiada sedikit penyesalan atas keputusan yang saya buat pada tahun 2017. Ia nampak kecil kerana hanya melibatkan hati, internal struggle, but it doesn't mean it's easiest. Setuju? Menjawab soalan ketiga. ^^

Kini, di usia 30 tahun, saya sedar yang perkara baik dan buruk itu sebenarnya tidak sentiasa sama saiz, beriringan, bahkan ia hanya mengimbangi kehidupan kita di dunia. Perkara yang baik sebenarnya lebih kerap berlaku dari yang tidak baik. Bukan setiap hari kita diuji dengan kenderaan rosak, atau pertengkaran, atau tiada makanan untuk disuguhkan pada keluarga. Ia hanya berlaku beberapa kali dalam setahun. Kebanyakan masa yang lain adalah perkara yang baik, seperti senyuman suami/isteri dan anak-anak, perpaduan di antara jiran, makanan yang panas dan mengenyangkan, selamat sampai ke tempat kerja, kesihatan dikala cuaca panas sejuk, kemampuan untuk bernafas.. Alhamdulillah, kini saya lebih ceria dan gembira kerana saya sudah mula pandai bersyukur dan mata saya sudah mula pandai melihat dengan pandangan hikmah. Bukankah sebenarnya, Allahlah yang telah memudahkan kehidupan saya? Menjawab soalan keempat. ^^

.

Mungkin azam tahun baru boleh saya tuliskan juga ya di sini? Bukan ada yang membacanya pun kan? Hehehe.. :P Baiklah, jika ada, sudilah kongsikan ceritera atau link anda di ruangan komen ya. ^^

Munie vs Qarin

Qarin : Jom muni main game. Kalau kau kalah, aku dpt point. Kalau aku kalah, kau dpt point.

Munie : maksudnya?

Qarin : Game ni kite kena usaha nak jatuhkan pihak lawan. Contohnya, aku buat kau lupa baca bismillah masa makan. Dengan tu, aku dpt point. Aku kenyang sama. Tapi bila kau baca jgk bismillah, kau dpt pahala, aku dpt lapar. Amcm? Deal?

Munie : eleh senangnya. hah, hokeh!

(Qarin pun mula dengan menyelimutkan dan mengeratkan pelukan bantal ketika munie belajar bangun subuh dulu2. hari2 mereka bertempur. masa mula2 game munie semangat main, selalu menang. tapi dah biasa org pndg dia baik, dia mula kendur.. kemudian, selang beberapa tahun..)

Qarin : wey muni, ko tau main tak? aku dah gemuk lagi sasa, baju lawa, makin kaya, hari2 level up.

Munie : sibuklah kau. aku dah byk level jgk la..

Qarin : eh, marah? aku x suruh pun, kau buat siap2 dah.

Munie : aku buat ape?? mane ade

Qarin : buat dosa la. aku petik sket, ko tau x elok mesej rapat2 ngn laki, tapi selamba je aku tgk. x reti kwn ngn pmpuan katenya. lagi, tau aurat wajib tutup, aku x pyh suruh ko dh bukak. x nak jadi hipokrit katanya.

Munie : tapi masa ramadhan aku berubah pe.

Qarin : mcm x je. buat ke amalan2 ramadan tu? lepak je aku tgk. ngaji x, solat sama je lewat. fine, rmdhn, aku bg can je ko recharge iman. kalo x boring la aku kan~

Munie : hins hins.. wey aku dah berubah la pas ramadhan. aku buat je walaupun sikit

Qarin : haah, pastu, aku twist sket, 'kang org tgk la', 'eh kang riak', ko dah x jadi buat. blah la. berubah mende..

Munie : argh aku benci kau!

Qarin : benci? tapi kau suka benda aku suka. mcm girlfren aku je gaya. konon nak syurga tp x beramal mcm org syurga. konon benci jatuh ke neraka tp xpenah get ready utk x masuk sana. konon nak sama2 menangkan islam, peeeraaah! main facebook je aku tgk.

Munie : @#$%^&*I

Qarin : mencarut? sah, mmg terhegeh nk jd girlfren aku. heh..

* guna nama sendiri utk memperingatkan diri sdri.

the old tall

it's been old.

and the cloud won't wait. 

rain will come down pouring.

shatter the old piece away.

***

life's continue.

time won't wait.

when the death is coming.

souls go away.

one fine evening in UTM
