Best seller of the month is the Botanical Effects Skincare Set (BE set), which includes: Cleanser, Freshen, Hydrate, and Mask. This set of product is particularly popular this month is mainly due to the promotion of getting a free Satin Lips Shea Sugar Scrub and a free Satin Lips Shea Butter Balm (Satin Lips set) upon every purchase of one BE set.
What’s so special about the products I’ve mentioned? First of all, the BE set is a simple regimen infused with the goodness of botanicals that are personalized to your skin type to bring out skin’s healthy radiance. The main ingredients, which are the botanical extracts derived from plants, flowers or fruits, are rich in elements like vitamins and minerals that are good for your skin.
The Satin Lips set on the other hand, is formulated with nourishing shea butter and the fresh flavor of white tea & citrus. Shea butter is extracted from the nut of the African Shea tree and has been used for centuries to protect, enrich, soften and hydrate skin. Shea butter is also known to contain omega-3s, recognized to help maintain skin’s natural moisture barrier. This is why the Satin Lips set is able to leave dry, chapped lips behind, and deliver moisturizing bliss in just two easy steps.

Conclusion
First of all, LOL to that profit amount, HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH, but that’s alright as long as there’s STILL profit I guess? Plus, my beloved sister is getting better thanks to Mary Kay’s Satin Lips set (see here), so what more can I complain about, right?
Personal
Flexed budget
Actual expenses
Education
Remember I said I want to take up some classes in April? Well, I did! I took up the transformation class. It was really fun, and I learnt a lot of things like how to do my own hair and how to shape my eyebrows etc. I’d say it’s worth it, although it’s just a 2-day-class.
Necessities
Well, most of the overspent amount are attributable to my toiletries and skincare products that has just finished, so still acceptable I think.
Play
Again…But at least I improved by 10.65%?
Anyways, despite the overspending, I’ve joined lots of activities and events this month:
Powerpoint Workshop
This is a workshop organized by ACCA department of HELP College of Arts and Technology (HELP CAT in short). I had lots of fun because we had to make our own business proposal on powerpoint and present it to the class. Apparently, my friend and I got creative and made some pretty weird proposals like err, Oppai Merchandise and Single4Life.
Okay Mr. Hiddleston, we’ll get help, from HELP, get it? HAHAHAHAHA.
Free Health Assessment
Apparently, according to the assessment, I need to decrease fats and increase muscles to achieve my ideal weight of 46.4kg. Other than that, I need to drink more water since I have low blood pressure and a high uric acid level in my blood.
Bonding Session with students from University of London (UOL)
Since the ACCA department is thinking of organizing more events together with UOL, we had a bonding sessions with their students just so we could get familiar with one another. It was fun, and I got to know many new faces.
Hiking activity at Bukit Saga
This is organized by the ACCA department too. Despite the tiredness, it was great. We got to bond with our seniors and just have fun. However, I was quite disappointed that we didn’t get to hike all the way up to the top where there’s waterfall due to the limited time. 😦
Animal Shelter Visit
Visited Furry Friends Farm with the Leo Club. It’s a vegan farm by the way, and it’s my first time visiting a vegan animal shelter, so I was quite excited and nervous at the same time. Why was I nervous? Because I was scared that the way I treat animals are not “vegan” enough, which might lead to me being scolded by the farm owner for animal cruelty.
Surprisingly, I was instead being pointed out by the farm owner to be too gentle on the animals and things won’t get done if I treat them like that. Then she demonstrated how we should treat the animals and I’m like, “Okay maybe I had misconception on veganism…”
Nevertheless, it was a great experience as there are so many species of animals in the farm other that dogs and cats. I loved it, although the farm owner was quite different from what I expected.
Give
All contributed to church offerings. I wonder where does all the church offerings goes to though? Back in the ancient days, people will burn their offerings to the Lord, but I don’t think that’s still the case now. Some churches contribute the offerings to build more churches for the rural areas, I wonder if that’s the case for the church I’m going to right now? By the way, I’m going to FGA Cheras, if you’re wondering.

Conclusions
It has been a lively month. I’m very happy with my April life, feels like I’m finally having some fun. However, my mock test results and also my budget report show that I obviously overdid the “fun” part, hehe.
Get too much fun, lose too much funds Business Sales Best seller of the month is the Botanical Effects Skincare Set (BE set), which includes: Cleanser, Freshen, Hydrate, and Mask.
