Hi Everyone..:) It's finally the last day of Chinese New Year..Time sure passes quickly without notice...:) Anyway today i'm going to blog a little about a special food tasting session with other bloggers which I join during early January this year.

The Third dish is Fried Lala. 


Sweet Soya Sauce Chicken. One of my favorite as well. The chicken is nicely cook and the flavor is just right. 

Asam Pedas Fish. 

Sometimes the more simple the foods are, the more delicious it is :) I really enjoy every dishes and loves the way how the foods are cook. All the foods cook by Datin Angie are very natural and healthy with just slight touch of salt and natural seasoning and no MSG.


After enjoying the dishes, i manage to have tour around her kitchen..i would say it's really nicely decorated..with the touch of English style decoration.  Wish someday i would have a ktichen like this..haha

Hishop Review: Beauty Talk 3D Refining Day Cream 30ml


Woohoo..It's a brand new year..2015 !! What goals do you all set for this year? For me..hmm..em..let me see..I just want to be more beautiful each year and stay healthy..:) Haha..not too greedy right..simple goals..


So..To achieve my first goal..." To be more beautiful "..I guess Beauty Talk 3D Refining Day Cream do the work for me...Thank you Hishop for giving me the chance to try out Beauty Talk 3D Refining Day Cream and it's actually come at the right time where my make up base is almost finish up..:)


Beauty Talk 3D Refining Day Cream has win numerous award from beauty magazines such as Nu You. I always wanted to try out one myself. This cream not only act as a suncare protection but also act as a good make up base with antioxidant, whitening and moisturizing function. 




Thank to its powerful anti aging ingredients (peptides), Acetyl Hexapeptide-3 and Tripeptides, it enable the cream to deeply penetrate into the skin dermis layer and smoothes fine lines and at the same time moisturizing and whiten the skin. The various vitamin inside the cream helps to restrict melanin formation ( I definitely want to AVOID THIS ) and increase the skin ability to guide against sun's damaging rays. 

Why the cream is name as 3D ? With the natural pearl powder and 3D Technology, it attract external light into the dermis layer of the skin enhancing skin radiance and smoothness. It offer natural glow effect on our skin. 


I like how they design the bottle in nozzle form as it's more hygienic and the amount from one pump is well control. 


The cream is in natural brown color which provide a light coverage for acne marks :) But i feel that the texture is quite watery. When apply to the skin, i can evenly distribute it across my skin with my finger and its seems to be easily absorb into my skin. My skin doesn't feel oily upon application. 

How to Use

Dispense an appropriate amount onto a sponge or finger. Apply evenly onto skin, concentrating particularly on the T-Zone area.


This is me before application. Please ignore all the acne pitted scar (T.T) Trying my best to get rid of it..You can notice some previous acne reddish mark. 


























Although you won't see much differences from the picture, but after using it for 1 week, the post acne mark has reduce a bit. During the 1 week application, it doesn't cause any new acne outbreak or cause my skin to be too oily..Which is super good for me because my skin is sensitive and usually will have outbreak if the skin care is not suitable for me.

The Twelve Cup Cafe, Beach Street Penang

I'm always been a fan of Mille Crepe cake and just recently I've a gathering at The Twelve Cup Cafe, Beach Street Penang. This is my first visit to the cafe although they have been opening for quite some time.



Well, here's a little info about the cafe. Twelve Cup Cafe offer wide selection of food from Cake to Vegetarian diet food. I would say their main point is their Mille Crepe cake. Upon entering the cafe, the first thing i notice is their wide variety of Mille Crepe cake. 




My friend and I order different type of Crepe Cake to try out. I was indecisive between Hokaido Milk and Raspberry  Crepe Cake. In the end, I order Raspberry and my friend order Matcha Mille Crepe Cake. Each of the cake cost RM 10.50





We have Smurfette and Smurf drawn on the plate :) 

I like the texture of the cake. It's moist and not too creamy and the most important is that each taste of the cake leave a very delightful and content feeling..The cake goes well with the coffee we order. However if they can make the coffee slight hotter, it would be much better. When we have our coffee, it's only slightly hot and after a few minute chatting with my friend, the coffee has already cold down and it feel like taking cold coffee.


Anyway, overall I still like the environment of the cafe and the Mille Crepe cake is definitely worth trying. The staffs working there are very friendly as well. Here's the rating for the Cafe:


Food Taste : ♥♥♥♥ out of 6
Pricing :♥♥♥♥ of out 6
Service: ♥♥♥♥♥ out of 6

Here's the location of the cafe if you would like to try it out yourself :) 

Address12, The WhiteAways Arcade, Beach Street, 10300 George Town, Malaysia
Opening Time : Mon - Sun:
10:00 am - 12:00 am

Hi everyone :)

We're coming to the end of October soon..It was a busy and tired month for me with my husband away for business trip and me alone looking after our LO most of the time.During these time, my skin deteriorate into a state which myself can't even recognize myself when i look into the mirror..=="" No time for facial, no time for proper skin care caring ..

But~~There's always a but..:) Even I don't have so much time to go thru all the skin care routine..I will try my best to stick to the basic which are cleaning ~ toning ~ mask ~ serum. Last weekend..I manage to find myself some time to relax and apply a mask as my husband come back from business trip which give me just a little time to pamper myself.



First of all, i would like to Thank you Hishop for this great giveaway and provide me the opportunity to try out Bidanpo Mediental Botanic Garden Broccoli Mask and review on it. It always come at the right time when i need an emergency boost for my skin.:) You must be thinking how on earth a broccoli can use as a mask to help our skin??


Well let me explain to you :) With the fresh broccoli and Centella Asiatica extract on the mask, it helps to provide soothing and sedativescare to our skin which makes our skin comfortable and clean.



With the natural cellulose tencel sheet, it's fixed easily on my skin. The good thing about this mask is that it's not too watery. When i take out the mask from the package, the essence on the mask doesn't drip down.

Here's the step by step on how to use the mask:

1. Take the mask out from it's package. Unfold and place the mask on your face.



2. You can leave the mask on the face for 15~20 minutes.
3. After that, remove the mask and gently pat your skin to let the essence fully absorbed in. 

After using, my face feel refresh and moisture. It doesn't leave any sticky feeling on my face. Overall although it doesn't show too much different on my face but from the skin analyzer meter, you can see that the water level has increased :) 



From the skin analyzer, you can see that my skin is softer and the water level increase :)

Hishop Review: Deoproce Snail Mask

I must admit that i'm quite a lazy person when it get to taking care of my skin as I always tends to skip doing mask...with excuses like " too tired" , " I'll do it next day" which eventually lead to another next day and on going..LoL..Anyway, today I'll like to do a mask review on Deoproce Snail Mask..Thank you Hishop for this great giveaway and provide me the opportunity to try out this mask and review on it. 




I know the first thing that come into your mind is the word "Snail". When we talk about snail, it's always slimy and yuckz :) but never did we know that they can bring so much benefits like helping in skin cell regeneration, repair and promote skin elasticity and smoothness. 





The facial sheet mask help to shield our skin surface with a protective layer which increases our skin temperature. This layer helps to prevents the moisture from escaping and at the same time revive, nourish, soften and oxygenated our skin. The concentrated extract on the cotton mask have a very soft herbal aromatherapy scent which provide me with relaxing experience especially when I'm tired after whole day looking after my son and dealing with his tantrums (=.=). Please ignore my aunty look..



How to apply the Mask: 

·        Cleanse your face with  cleansing foam and rinse your face with lot of warm water. Even if you don't put on makeup, your facial skin is still exposed to the dirt and pollution in the air which will only clog our pores.
·       Good idea to open the pores so that when you apply the facial mask, all the nutrition is immediately absorbed into your face.
·       Open by peeling the sachet and apply a face mask sheet by pressing it across the face, avoiding sensitive areas such as eyes and mouth.  
·      Wait for of 15 to 20 minutes for the nutrition to absorb in the skin.
·      Remove and gently patting or massage your face with the remaining essence to enhance deeper absorption into your skin.

After applying, my face feel refreshing and moisture. Before applying the mask, my skin moisture is only 36%. After the mask, my skin moisture increase by 4%.

Baby Boba Wrap Review

Hello Everyone..for those parent out there, today i would like to introduce to you a great baby wrap which help me solve a lot of problems. It's Baby Boba Wrap. 


Getting into parenting world tough..and some of us even give up going out during the weekend as it's really very difficult when your baby want hug hug most of the time =.= Ever since Little J reach 3 month, his weight increase a lot. Compare to when he is newborn, now he weight 6.5 kg. The worst part is he want people to hold him most of the time (=.=). When we bring him out to do some grocery shopping, we try to put him inside the stroller and the longest time he can stay inside the stroller is 10 min, after that he will start to call for people to hold him. My husband and I will take turn hold him and we can't really do any shopping. 


This is when i start to search high and low for baby carrier so that we can carry him around and at the same time do our grocery shopping. This is when i found Baby Boba Wrap. I bought this wrap from Baby Paradise at RM139. Previously i bought a ring sling but Little J just don't like to be inside the ring sling and keep pushing when I have him in cradle and kangaroo style. But with Boba Wrap, he just lie there quietly and enjoy looking around. 


What's good about this wrap? Well i tell you, the best part of this wrap is that you can do your baby wearing hands free. The Baby Boba Wrap is made from unique fabric blend which is very comfortable for me and my baby. With this wrap, i can easily calm and sooth my baby when he is crying and he can easily fall asleep in the wrap as he can feel our warmth, movement and heartbeat. Mother's heartbeat is the best when come to soothing baby. :) The baby wrap can support baby weight from 7 to 35 lbs while evenly distributing the weight of my baby. My husband say we can even use this wrap as scarf. :) The simple design of the wrap make it buckles and button free. 






This is me ( aunty look) doing my grocery shopping while Little J sleeping soundly inside the wrap until mouth open wide..LOL.



As i just started using the wrap, i'm trying to figure a way for me the breastfeed my baby inside this wrap. Will update you guy if I successful breastfeed him in wrap :) .

XOXO

Kose Seikisho Mask White Review


Hello everyone ~ I bet everyone of you know about this brand Kose. Kose is one of the well known Japanese Skincare brand. Most of the asian main skin concern is whitening and to have youthful skin. Kose Seikisho target is to provide a newborn white skin to its user.

Well today i'm going to review on one of its product, Kose Seikisho Mask White. This is one of the popular peel-off mask in the market.



The functions of this mask is to work as brightener,exfoliate our skin,remove blackheads and unclog pores. With it's nano black powder, the mask can be well disperse over our skin.

The direction of using this mask is apply thick and even coat onto our clean face but please avoid hairline, eye area and lip area. After apply, wait for 20 minutes or until it's completely dry. Once it's dry, slow peel off the mask. 


My Verdict : After the mask dry off, i have difficulty peeling off the mask and the left over of the mask on the face is difficult to wash off. I need rub quite some time for it to wash off. Apart from that, when apply the mask, it's best to stay at air con room as when i apply the mask without staying inside air con room, i tend to sweat and this make the mask watery and doesn't dry off. To apply evenly onto the face, I need to apply quite a lot of the mask. Due to the size of the tube, I think the mask would use up very quickly and it's quite pricey. The price for one tube is RM 85. However after peeling, i notice it manage to remove some of the whitehead and dead skin. 


My skin appear smoother. Overall I would give 3 out of 5 for this product :)

Baby Organix Nature's First Aid Cream Review



Hi Everyone..How are you ? It's been ages since my last post.I've just delivered my Little one last month :) and finished my 30-days confinement this week. Can you imagine without bathing and washing hair for 30 days..OMG..I can only describe it as "Hell" as all I know is that I keep on sweating and the weather is hot even I stay inside my room with the air conditional on. 


Anyway, as comeback post, I would like to do a simple review post on a cream, Baby Organix Nature's First Aid Cream, which I find it's done a really good job in soothing my baby skin. As a mother, we always want to give the best to our baby and make sure he/she is in good care.

My little one face started to get rough on both his cheek on his third week. We thought the skin problem was due to the milk residue that left on his cheek after breastfeeding. So after every breastfeeding, I would ensure all the milk on his face are clean up but it didn't show any improvement and its seems to get flaky on his cheek and show slightly redness.




Then one of my friend introduce me Baby Organix Nature's First Aid Cream.  I bought this cream at RM 32.90 from an organic shop near my house. Been applying it three times a day since i bought it and see great improvement on my Little one skin after one day. The roughness on his skin is greatly reduce and appear more smoother. The texture of the cream is not so creamy so your baby won't feel uncomfortable after applying. 




According to the leaflet on the cream, this cream can helps to treat and control almost all skin related ailments and injuries. It is purely natural and contain no harmful ingredient and steroid free. The cream is specially formulated with organic Calendula Oil, a plant-base antioxidant that can protect skin cells from being damaged, heal wounds and soothes the skins. 

I would highly recommend this cream if you are looking for a suitable cream to treat your baby rashes/eczema ;)
