Goodness Me! What might these mystery items be?

March 22, 2011 Paris B 33 Comments

I’m going to come right out and say that I’m deathly afraid of stepping into Sasa stores. The sales assistants that stick so close to you like glue, that prattle away to me in a language I don’t understand, or that look at you like you might shoplift something is terribly off-putting to me. So it was most refreshing to step into the Sasa store at Pavilion Kuala Lumpur and be left to my own devices to browse. The sales assistants spoke to me in a language I understood when I needed assistance, and I ended up making some strange purchases (not due to their influence, but for a laugh).

Here they are. Let’s see if you can guess what they might be, or what they might be for 😀

Mystery Item #1

what am i?

Update: Answer to Mystery Item #1

Mystery Item #2

how about me?

Mystery Item #3

Mystery Item #4

hmmm...

You could very well know what they are or even own them 😀

Some Tuesday fun to lighten the afternoon mood 😉

Enjoy guessing! Answers will come later 😉

    I’m guessing the second one is a towel thingy to wrap and dry hair. I’m definitely sure the 3rd one is a velcro-like thingy to hold fringe back. The 1st one looks like some kind of massaging tool and the 4th is a furry hair band to hold back the hair?

    #1 is some massage thingy from the looks of it, #2 is for drying hair! I own 2 myself hehe :P, #3 is another thing I own (in pink and red even) for holding hair up (just remember not to accidentally put it into the washing machine. It won’t get destroyed beyond use, but destroyed nonetheless).

    Now #4 is the only thing that stumped me. Is it a schrunchie, or another hair-holder-upper thingy?

        Now that’s one cheese I don’t think I’ll try… ever. *shivers* LOL!

        Agree with you about SASA SA’s (LOL) btw. Though I do find that they aren’t that annoying anymore. The last few times I went in and told them I was just browsing, they did leave me alone until I had the i-need-help look.

          I wouldn’t want to try that cheese either! LOL

          I haven’t stepped into Sasa for a long time. I do hope its a new company policy to be less annoying now. There are so many interesting and strange things to find in there! 😀

    I can identify with that! Sasa scares the s*&^ out of me!!
    Let me try to identify your items then:-
    1: A torture device specifically designed to give your nose a sharper edge…i.e massage it along the bridge of your nose to make it more pronounced.
    2:A cap to cover your hair when putting on face masks….or a more feminine version of the balaclava?
    3: You put this on your hair fringe to keep it nice and flat.
    4: Aged fluffy cheddar cheese!

    I ought to get full marks for trying;)

    Here are my guesses 🙂
    M.I. #1: Some sort of chin or facial massage thingie?
    M.I. #2: Hair towel-turban for wet hair!
    M.I. #3: Velcro pad for keeping hair/bangs out of face?
    M.I. #4: Headband?
    This is fun! You should have more mystery item posts! Happy Tuesday 🙂

    Sasa stores here are definitely annoying so when i stepped into one during my hong kong trip, the sales assistant surprisingly left me alone to browse. What a nice change.

      I always had a decent experience at Sasa Hong Kong until my last trip. The SA tailed me everywhere and kept trying to make me buy these strange looking China brands that I had no intention of looking at! Same as in Shanghai – same pestering style. Maybe they learnt from Sasa here 😉

        Same in Singapore too! I just grab what I want and quickly leave Sasa to avoid the sticky SAs.

    1. Tool to slim down your face?
    2. Used to dry your hair or put on when applying hair mask? I had this long time ago but I forgot the purpose of it lol 😀
    3. To hold your fringe! Teehee 😀
    4. To hold all your hair back while doing face mask?

    Haha, I am eager to know all the answers 😛

    Not sure why but I can’t seem to load the first picture. But that’s okay because I have Item 2, 3 and 4 myself too! LOL

    #2 Used to wrap hair after a shower. Very useful!
    #3 To hold back bangs/ fringe when doing skincare/makeup
    #4 To hold back hair when doing skincare/ makeup

    I use all three items every single day! Hope you find them useful like I did =)

    i think ive seen all of them before!!! maybe because i go into sasa too often or the sasa salesladies are really aggressively trying to sell me all of these…

    #1: cheek/jaw massager to slim your face??
    #2: hair ‘turban’ for holding wet hair/ drying wet hair (though i dont think it works for me at all ):)
    #3: Velcro pad for pinning your hair back without leaving marks
    #4: something like a hairband which serves similar functions as the velcro 😉

    and i was really curious if #1 really works at all?? it looked a little intimidating for me to massage my FAT face w, and i do have pretty sensitive skin. ):

    Item #1 looks like a face or neck massager that frequently appears in Taiwan beauty mags. Heck it could be an ear massager for all I know!

    Item #2 Is it Miss Towel? The magic hair drying towel that wraps around the head.

    Item #3 I own. It’s the magic fringe holder.

    Item #4 I’ve not seen before in Sasa. Is it a another magic towel? 😀

I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskinca I remember when I first tried the #antipodesskincare Aura Manuka Honey Mask. It blew my mind away! Soothes skin. Boosts hydration and just makes you feel like you have the best skin ever! Not kidding. If you have a spot or irritated skin, it calms it down and helps get rid of your spots too. Honey is anti bacterial after all, so it’s a great multitasker. 
I also love the Manuka Honey Skin brightening Day Cream. It’s light but creamy and sinks into the skin. I’ve reviewed them both on the blog in the past. If you run a search for Antipodes, you’d also notice how much I love the brand! 😁
I’m super late with this but if you’re planning to purchase any of these 3 Manuka honey items from TNS Skinlab, the code MYWSTUFF10 will give you an extra 10% off (until tomorrow 31 Dec) I highly recommend grabbing the Aura mask. You’ll never want to be without (I always have a backup!) 
Thanks for the gift @tnsskinlab and I must apologise for my tardiness 😩 I’ll learn to cope better from next week! 
Now I have to scuttle and write my year end musings. Some traditions must be kept! 😜

It’s my first year doing retail and honestly, I’d never been so busy! The year-end rush is unreal! But busy is good, right? At least that’s what I tell myself 😂
While I pack up gift boxes of treats for doggies 🐶 (I’ve tied so many ribbons I’ve finally started to get it right!) #loccitanemalaysia makes it easy to shop for humans 😅 at experienceloccitane.com with their L’Occitane en Demande service. Place your order, and pick up in store or have it delivered. 
Had a bit of breather today and put together a little video. Blink and miss my little monster 🐶 helping me shop! Not sponsored but I did receive a gift from L’Occitane, for which my sun-exposed, dry dog-walking skin thanks you! 
Haven’t done any Christmas shopping this year. It has only just struck me that it’s but mere days away! 😨 Have you done yours?
