Beating of a Heart: October 2015

Bitsdiaries' Pore Care Giveaway!

I've been trying out different kinds of Pore Masks, mostly the clay ones. One thing I wished from them where to be a strip mask, which I personally think is easier to handle than the wash away masks because I don't always have a warm water available..and washing with regular tap water can take a long time. ^^;

I've been reading blog posts from Bitsdiaries for a while now. Her posts are very informative, especially so for acne-related posts. And I was so glad to see that she's having a giveaway for the Pore Care Kit shown above! She also has a review based on her mom's experience with it. Do check it out here if you're also interested in joining!

Giveaway ends on November 16th. Fingers crossed!

Hong Kong Disneyland and Ocean Park Discount Coupons

It's nearing Christmas season and one of the go-to country during the holiday season is Hong Kong. Most people go to Hong Kong for shopping and dining. But if you're with your kids and/or friends. HK Disneyland or Ocean Park will be part of your itinerary.

And if you're like me, I enjoy discount coupons. Although, I'm a newbie compared to some of the people I know. xD I've always been quite hesitant when I see discounts online because for some reason, I feel like there's more to it than just the "you save %%!".

Alas, funds are limited so we gotta do what we gotta do to save as much as we can.

Here are 2 links with discounts to book your online tickets for Disneyland and Ocean Park.

Hong Kong Disneyland - Discount site
From ~~HK$499~~ to HK$448 - you save HK$51!

You can also add another HK$25 off when you download the Klook App and use the FBOCTDIS promo code. (Can only be used on one ticket.)

To get to Disneyland if you're coming from Causeway Bay,
Take MTR Causeway Bay > Central > Transfer Tung Chun Line > Sunny Bay > Disneyland Resort EST. 45min.
HK$25.2 (Octopus Card) |HK$28.0

We usually buy our return tickets before entering to avoid the lines at night when everyone's in a hurry to get back to their hotel/place.

Try to get there early because there's bound to be a lot of people in line. But don't forget to get to the "AutoMagic Tickets" Machine near the right side of the entrance to get your entrance ticket first. There will be instruction on the voucher that you'll get from the Klook site once you purchased online.

Check the weather, last time we went there it was too hot. The sun burns your skin and it's better to have an umbrella and a sunblock for protection. Umbrella, obviously, can be really useful as well when it rains.

Food is normally pricey in amusement parks. A lunch can cost you about HK$120+

Ocean Park Hong Kong - Discount Site

From ~~HK$345~~ to HK$293 - you save HK$52!

FBOCTOP - Promo code for additional HK$25 off.

To get to Ocean Park from Causeway Bay:
Take MTR Causeway Bay > Admiralty
EST. 5 min.
HK$4.4 (Octopus Card) | HK$4.5

Find the ticket booths for the Ocean Park Express, take Route 629 - Buy the round trip ticket. There's no bus ticket booth in Ocean Park.

When you get to the Ocean Park Entrance, go to the left side and show your voucher to the Ocean Park staff. Take note that this is also a huge place and most of the time you will be walking around with no shade. Again, umbrella and sunblock are your friends during summer time.

---

If you're torn in choosing where to go, Disneyland is mostly attraction-style and plays. If you're into intense rides, you'd have better luck in Ocean Park. Cute animals are a plus!!

I love animals and rides and I'm also a Disney girl..so yeah..just decide among the people you're going with and you'll be fine. =]

Here's an MTR Map in case you need.

Before buying your discount tickets, check your airline. Some airline tickets gives you access to Ocean Park for free or have promos for Disneyland (esp. Cathay Airline). Not just airlines, but Hotels and Tours as well. So don't forget to ask them first before buying just to be sure.

Enjoy and have a safe trip!

*Listed price are regular adult rates. For kids and seniors please check Disneyland and Ocean Park Official Sites.

REVIEW: Eden's Paradise Raw African Black Soap

If you guys remember, this was one of the items I got from Eden's Paradise last July (you can check the other products here). It's been 3 months now and I still have a "ball" of this soap in our bathroom and I'm still using it twice a day. Sadly I was only able to document the 1st. month of using this but hopefully you guys can see the difference. =]
