One more week and I will finally meet my idols face to face. Super Junior M is coming to town! Oh yesssu! Super Junior M is the Chinese unit of Super Junior - meaning 6 of the Super Junior members plus Henry (mochiiii!!!) and Zhou Mi (mimiii!) who are chinese members. Hangeng (oh, how I miss him) was the previous member of SJM and now has gone solo but still a Super Junior member forever in our hearts. ~right ELFs!
Super Junior M for Tony Moly
Super Junior M members, Donghae, Eunhyuk, Kyuhyun, Ryeowook, Siwon, Sungmin, Henry and Zhoumi will be performing in DKFC2 or Dream Kpop Fantasy Concert 2 this coming Feb 2, 2014 at the Araneta Coliseum. They are one of the 6 kpop groups who'll complete the evening for their kpop fans here in the Philippines. In line with this event, Super Junior M is also Tony Moly's trendy, cool, ever handsome endorsers who will meet their fans on the same day. Minus Siwon (he is currently endorsing Mamonde beauty products), the members will greet and sign posters for Tony Moly members alone. Very lucky few members who were able to get the limited passes during the promotion date of Tony Moly Philippines. The promo date started Jan 15 and will last until Jan 27. The members who purchased Tony Moly products worth 3,000 pesos will get a limited stub as passes to the said event. Get a sign from one of the members, see them very VERY close and greet them! OMO! I can't imagine!~ I was one of the lucky few who went my way through the fangirl hardship and sacrifice to get a stub! A chance to be drawn out of 10 members and win an SVIP ticket to the concert! Such great opportunites! So I decided to get one. I went to Tony Moly Eastwood and waited at 4 am before the mall opens at 11 am and amidst the chaos and misunderstanding, but very helpful and patient mall and store staffs, the right line was honored. I was 6th in line. And finally, it's a dream come true! The stubs were very limited so the promo did not lasted for a day, but only for minutes! The stubs in all Tony Moly stores nationwide are sold out. ELFs definitely have great power! LOLzzz...
my Tony Moly haul + that fan sign pass ~^^)
So, I tried some of my haul and blogging it. As a thanks to Tony Moly PH!~ yayyy! First off, the Tony Moly Intense Care Snail BB Cream. I am a big fan of bb creams and I tried a lot of them. Among my favorites are from korean stores The Face Shop and Etude House. When I went to Korea, I was only able to buy nail polishes from Tony Moly. Given the chance, I bought their expensive and snail bb cream for a change.
my snail products bb cream and lip balm
I love the scent so much. And the color matches my tone really well. It only has one tone so I might say it's light beige. It also has a light to medium coverage, just what I love on bb creams.
the description at the back
one shade only - light beige
swatch with tony moly snail bb cream
It works well on me as a bb cream and as a concealer too. It covers my dark spots and even the reddish spots on my face. Since it has a snail mucus content, i am mostly curious if my zits will disappear right away but for now, I love the effect. It also gives you a smooth finish and it is easy to evenly blend on your skin, even my blackheads were covered. It's a bit expensive but I might buy it again since it exceeded my expectations.
it has a pump so it is clean to use
Now I got a Prestige Snail Lip treatment Stick. This comes in two packaging, one in stick form and the other in a pot. I got this one because I think it is more convenient for me to bring anywhere. I apply this at night before sleeping and one in the morning before make up and going to the office. I also use it in between my shift to retouch.
my snail lip treatment stick
This balm is truly remarkable because I am one of those few who has really dry lips. I tried a lot of lip balms, even ordered expensive brands, but none worked. This one was worth it because it has snail treatment on it,it does not have any tint but it keeps my lips moisturized. I am very confident to recommend this because it really is effective.
here's what it looks like when snail lip balm is applied
Last in the line is my Tony Moly Cristal Blusher. I got mine in 02 shade or Pleasure Pink shade. I love its packaging and the shade as well. It does not give me too pinkish color which I like and it almost works as a highlighter. It gives you the natural glow that seems you don't wear a blush on at all. I love this blusher because it also goes well w/ my brush. ha ha ha!!!~ I just need to get more than two strokes though when applying because of the lightness, or maybe because it's new? Ha ha ha!

There is really a difference when this blusher shade is applied.

My next goal is to try other blusher shades they have like the bronze one or apricot. kkk~ So, here are my reviews to my Tony Moly products. I'll blog about my other products next time. These three easy steps and routine will give me the magic glow once I meet Super Junior M on their fan meet and greet event. And if you are coming, see you there! Special thanks to: TonyMolyPH, my sisters, my family, and friends I met during the Tony Moly promo day in Eastwood City. jjang!
Before the super date, finally the long wait is over! Super
Show 5 Manila is happening!!! I have been waiting for this concert after 2
years. This is my 3rd Super Junior concert after 2 and 3.
So far, I’ve attended all Supershows here in Manila.
The boys held theire SS2 and SS3 in Smart Araneta Coliseum
and now found its new home in SM Mall of Asia Arena. There’s no missing this
one of course as we don’t have SS4 in Manila. So PHELFs definitely can’t miss
the chance to be part of the ultimate concert of them all. Every ELF or kpop
fan wants to be a part of the sapphire blue ocean. So we grabbed out tickets
during the release date. See my blog about that crazy day here: countdown to the greatest Show
This concert is special because 1) it’s Kangin’s first ever
step here in PH as he was in the army during the last two Supershows held here
and 2) Heechul’s first Super show 5 tour after the military. Great expectations
here that’s why everyone’s excited!
The countdown to the greatest date started. ELFs were counting the days and started planning for fan projects. Always a habit of every super show. This make fans more excited because they anticipate what the boys' reaction would be to every fan project.

The day has finally come. Since we got reserved seats, me and my sister left around 11AM from Pampanga to the venue. Once we arrived, fans were everwhere since gates will be open at 3PM> Everyone's excited inclusing us!!! **here it is, that nostalgic feeling**... We took photos while waiting for gates to open (which was delayed, instead of 3PM it beccame past 4.) It feels like a reunion w/ kpop friends too.

When the gates opened, we went inside and waited on a line in our respective sections. All the excitement when the doors opened to our own section and walked to our seats. That feeling!!!!!!!! OMO!!!! And then it's minutes away before 7PM. As every seats were filled, they played a Super Junior song and everyone sang, waving their sapphire blue lighsticks.
Then finally, lights out, and everyone screamed so LOUD!!!!
This is it! The introduction video is on!!! ~breathes~
After the first video, there they are! So cool and handsome for their first song Mr. Simple. Everyone's screamin' like crazy.. like there's no tomorrow. Followed by Bonamana and Super Girl before they introduced themselves. Oh, they're so cute like speaking in Tagalog and even english... what's more funny is Eunhyuk saying he can't speak english fluently so fans should learn korean instead.. ha ha ha! cute~ ^^)
my favorite sapphire blue ocean
These boys really never fail to make us love them. Each of them introduced themselves and right after is every scream.. though we did not heard Sungmin because his mic was off i think, but still does not make any difference, everyone screamed on how cute he is. What's funny among their intros was when it's Kangin' turn, everyone was excited and shouted his name 'Kangin! Kangin! Kangin!' so he asked 'Wae?' as in 'why?' he he.... Donghae sang while introducing himself 'Would you be my girlfriend?' and Heechul, oh Heechul, was so shy so eveyone needs to shout his anthem 'Saranghaeyo, Kim Heechuk! Uyubitkal, Kim heechul!' to energize him. Henry and Siwon, of course, spoke to fans in english. So damn cute!
the boys introduce themselves
One of my favorites is when the four balladeers Sungmin, Zhoumi, Ryeowook and Kyuhyun performed 'How am I suppose to live without you' cover. They were awesome. Truly their skills fit right for an idol. A tribute made us teary eyed when their ballad group KRY minus Yesung sang the ost of the hit korean series 'That Winter, the Wind Blows' and Yesung's video in slo-mo hitting the screen. He is currently serving the military and will be back for a while. We surely miss him already, as much as the members do.

Super Junior M performed their songs 'Breakdown', 'Go' and other hits together with Henry and Zhoumi, oh how i love them!!!
'Go' performed by Super Junior M! daebak!!
The next set of songs were their ballads from the previous albums. They even performed 'Its You' my favorite and bringing back nostalgia to fans, that mv where they were complete with Kibum and Hangeng. They also asked fans to sing with them while performing 'Bittersweet' and 'Memories' aawww.
SJ members look like angels even when singing
interacting with ELFs and asking us to sing with them
The most awaited number, well, i waited for it too, was them performing 'Rockstar' where they danced to the groove, headbanging, singing, solo dancing, that Siwon! LOL... and Heechul's turn, then Eunhyuk's shirt was off!!!! Oh, you know what I mean! It was truly entertaining hahaha!!!
A few more songs were performed and everyone sang and dance with them. Fan projects were also successful. The fan project for having a blue wedding was a big hit! Everyone has a blue flower crown as the song 'Marry U' was performed. It's a song Super Junior made for their fans as a commitment of loving them and thanking them for being there. And what's more revealing was when after that song, a big banner from fans (another fan project) went down saying 'ok, Let's have babies'. Siwon was the best when he said, 'i wanna make babies with you'. O.M.G. This was a great epic moment!
Part of their fan service was of course, their cross dress performance. I can still remember how Siwon, Kangin, Sungmin and Ryeowook danced to girl groups' songs and dressed just like them. And during their happy and relaxing performances, they roam the stage, signing posters and magazines for fans, taking selcas from the fans' phones and cameras. This is how Super Junior loves their fans and treats them as friends.
Siwon, Kangin, Ryeowook and Sungmin danced to girl group's songs; a special fan service
It is very hard to end a Super Show. Even the boys tried to extend it by making us laugh while expressing their gratitude to us and saying their goodbyes. Even if our leader is still in the army, our boys are there, supporting each other and loving their fans, same with us ELFs, always there for them no matter what. They will return for Super Show 6 and as Siwon said, we'll take it step by step.
SJ playing onstage and having fun Definitely, this is one great show and a wonderful blue night! Thank you Super Junior! jjang!~~
