Beauty: An awesome mani pedi @ beeQnails

Hey guys!! If you've been subscribing my Facebook (Mika Pi) or following my instagram (mika_koh), you will definitely see this post. Yes, finally I had settle down after a fantastic and chill shopping trip with my besties to Bangkok. So next post will probably be my Bangkok shopping trip~ Stay tune~~~~~ :D

So so sooooo sorry for this delayed post, it was so hard for me to write this post, as I was at a region that have no Facebook, no Instagram, not even my favourite search engine -- Google for almost a month!! :'( Same to blogspot. So I couldn't update any post but can only make a draft to be update once I got back to my lovely country. Which means, this post is actually done in Shanghai but posted in Malaysia then. ><


Some of you may not know, I'm a person that love nail arts but will never be perfect enough to do my own nails (:P). Once in awhile I will go for mani pedi somewhere in Kota Damansara or even some good deals from Groupon. On the 19 June, I've come to BeeQnails for mani pedi service before I depart to Bangkok. I can say, this is the best mani pedi service ever! Best of ALL!! Seriously no joke! Continue reading this post and you'll know ;)

Isn’t the whole building so lady like? Baby pink~ <3

**Anyway, I'm stupid and blur enough when I reached there. As a new blogger, I didn't know I can take any photo I want, just being a normal customer, sitting there doing nothing. So, I apologize for having limited photos taken throughout the whole experience. Some of the photos are by my dear friend Carinn (thanks very very very muchhhhh!!!).

On that day, after I done with my meeting at Kuala Lumpur, it's already 4pm. My hubby and I decided to go SS2 earlier, so that I wouldn't be late for that appointment which was suppose to be at 7pm. I thought BeeQnails is at the shop lots, but it's actually at the housing area right at the left hand side of the road from SS2 to LDP ;). I was lucky that there were no appointments around that time. The receptionist actually allowed me to push forward my appointment. Hehe... One more thing, the parking is limited (as you can see from the photo above, only can fit 3 cars), it's better that you reach earlier to get a proper parking somewhere further.

Further in, there’s a whole rack of O.P.I products and some nail arts as display on the table. I feel like having a collections of those too :P

Once step in you will see this on your right and next to it, there's a space to relax and chill while waiting for your turn. Soooooo cozyyyy~ love it!

Then, the section for pedicure with a white queen-like sofa, clean interior design, I feel like home~ So comfy… :D

Right till the end of the building is a kitchen and a washroom. I was quite surprised with their washroom; it's so clean and tidy. They even provide a tray with everything a lady needed! Too bad I didn’t get to snap a photo to show you girls, will try to snap one when I go for the second visit okay? 5 stars for the washroom! :P (I feel myself like "sua gu" ><)

After waiting for around 15 minutes, my hubby and I were invited to the pedicure session by a friendly staff -- Christie. We can actually choose any drama we want to watch and can order for a drink. I feel so overwhelmed~ the first time being serve like a queen in a nail salon~ *melted

These are the products being used for the Rejuvenating Treatment

(Scrub: Natural sugar crystals reduce calluses and eliminate dry rough skin / Mask: Ultra-hydrates with shea butter extracts / Massage: A blend of botanical, antioxidant vitamins and emollients which act as a lightweight moisturiser)

BeeQnails has been a partner of O.P.I which will have a standard procedure and all treatment and services will strictly using O.P.I's products. While for this time, I got to experience the Rejuvenating Treatment at the price RM89. While soaking my feet, Christie actually explained what treatment she will be doing and even the ingredients of the products that will be use. Can be see that the staffs are well equip with knowledge and training that will be given by the O.P.I Academy Malaysia.

While enjoying the treatment, something to keep me busy – choose the best colour for my toes. It was the hardest and dilemma moment for people like me. Haha! I’ve been trying out too much dark colours, tiffany blue and red… Christie actually suggested me with the pink, and I actually tried the same colour on my finger nails the other day at Sephora. Hrm… I listed a few and then, she tried all on my nails, in the end, I go for the pink (the weirdest thing in my life to have pink nails, I don’t really like pink tho, but what to do? It looks nice ><). Other than the usual base coat, something different again (for “sua gu” like me). Before painting on the colours, she applied “chip skip” to avoid excessive oil on the surface of the nails, and can prevent it to chip easily.

Tadaa~ done with my toenails! Next station~ Gel manicure by Kate the manucurist!

Photos by MikaPi

This is not the first time I have Gel Manicure and the reason for loving Gel is that it can be done at the speed of light and will not chip so easy for people like me (like doing crafts). GelColor by O.P.I will only need a total of 4 minutes to complete the whole set from foundation to finish without any nail art and can last for 2 weeks! The most most important, I can do whatever I want once finish the last shade~ Wuhohoho~ XD One more thing that's different with the classic manicure, GelColor by O.P.I will need to be cure under the light before proceeding with the next shades.

Other than that, all their designs are mainly inspired by the imported magazines from Japan - Nail Up, Nail Venus and Nail Max. You may choose the designs from the magazines and spice it up with some gorgeous nail accessories!

Compared to other bloggers, mine is the simplest and normal design. I would like to have more designs for the next time, but put into consideration that I was going on a trip and may destroy the beautiful art easily, simple better. :P I like how they use two shades to create that galaxy feel~ I love with the purplish galaxy! *thumb up

Mite mite (*Japanese 'see see') ~~ After a month! Still shine like newly polished! But it's not recommended to have it too long as it may harm the nails, nails need to breath too~ I'll be visiting them again tomorrow for the Gel remove and also will be having new mani pedi again!

What Soap! - the purely handmade soap

Here, introduce to you, the hand made soap by What Soup! Just a click at the link and it will lead you to their Facebook. Give a "like" and there'll be more info regarding the soap~

Anyway, I'm a person that concern of my health, my hair, skincare and everything. Therefore, handmade soap will always be my first choice! Though, the price might be slightly higher than those commercials one, but please take into consideration on the effort and pure materials that have been used. Those are with love, sweat and time. I swear it'll definitely worth the price!

The one I bought from their booth the other day is my favourite tea-tree oil. I bought two, one is cat-like one (a bit creepy =P) and another teddy bear at RM9.90 each. They have a variety of designs mainly rose, lemon, lavender and tea-tree oil scented. The designs are all freaking cute and gorgeous!!! I swear! They have ducklings, mummy, bear, roses, sea shells and etc. Just visit their Facebook page and you'll get to see all those designs.

They had their booth at the Energy Hub of Sunway University and it was all sold out on the second day! Anyway, if you would like to order, you may drop a message to them.

Dreamz again~

Here I am again at Dreamz Bakery! It's really been my second home since it's opening. But every time I was there, not to chill only, but also to visit my bestie Hwiyee~ <3 

For those who are new to my blog, here's some sneak peak of the bakery's interior.

It's a really cozy place with pink and apple green as the main colours. Every single corner of the bakery, including the whole branding and packaging was nicely done by the pretty lady boss - Hwiyee. She love marry-go-round and bird cage, therefore, you can spot some drawings or even the lights are with the bird cage. Besides, she's also very emphasise on recycling and she give full support by using paper bags as the packaging, carton box DIY as the decorations and so on. 

There are certain pre-caution before you arrive at the bakery.
 1) To make sure the cleanliness and the feel of "home", before you step in the bakery, you'll need to take off your shoes and there's shoe rack provided at the door step.
2) There are two kinds of seating style, a) normal tables and chairs or b) sitting on the floor.
2) Grab a seat and you'll see a glass bottle with the card like the photo above. Please remember the number as you'll need that when you make order at the counter.
3) To support environmental friendly concept, they will not provide menu at the tables, there are like usual fast food restaurants, menu will only be provided at the counter.
4) Lastly, remember there might be long queue, so, please be nice to others, have a decision before queueing. Then, the food and drinks will be serve to your table in a short while. :)

This is my favourite room. With green plants, windows and not forgetting the beautiful decorations~ Love it!

That day I just wanna chill and do my assignments and therefore, I just ordered a "Passion Fruit Yoghurt", while Olivia ordered a "Lychee Passion Fruit". We both are passion fruit lovers. Haha! Anyway, they do have solid food and delicious cakes. For the solid food, I'll recommend the Carbonara and the home made Mushroom soup. Yummm~ While for cakes, I'm not too sure what's their best seller now, but you can always check it out at their page. They have variety of cakes and dessert. If you like durian, they have Durian Puff too!

Ooops~ Nearly forget that Olivia ordered this Tiramisu! *slurp

The texture is soft, not too sweet, just nice for people like me, and kids or Muslim friends can have it too, as they didn't add any alcohol to it.

So, if you are craving for cakes and need solid food, this will be one of your choice then. Their price range is like normal cafe, affordable price. Below will be their address and contact. Check it out yo! =P
