Centella Asiatica, Cica, Tiger Grass, Gotu Kola, Brahmi, Indian pennywort, pegaga and many more name to this ingredient that appears in many skincare produts. Thanks to Korean skincare marketing of this special ingredient, it has finally gain fame.
So here are two videos about Centella Asiatica.
I eat my skincare ingredient Centella Asiatica and Hammering Centella Asiatica ASMR .
I came across this ingredient since 10 years ago in the drink form. Back then, I know by another name as pegaga. I mean didn't know that the fancy name is called Tiger Grass. When if I talked about the tiger using this to heal, my mum just thought I was just making stories up.
It is better when it comes in extract asiaticoside, madecassoside, asiatic and madecassic acids.

Today I am going to share how I actually get a slim body with no exercise. My face doesn't match my body though. No bikini photo - NSFW later.
Maintaining low weight is hard especially I love food.
Anyway, these slimming methods are my mum's. Guarantee sure work. I am living proof this diet works.
Get a hardcore mom.
If she cooks too much and made you eat eat eat, time to think again. Worst if you are the trash bin. That is how you cannot seem to just slim down. She just make you eat eat and then condemn that you are fat.
Eat food you hate the most
Time to say goodbye to your favourite food or food you like to eat. Of course no processed food. Sayonara to fried chicken, steak, Mcdonald burgers, cheese, nuggets and all the cakes. Say hello to 1kg of spinach, bittergourd, brocolli, salad and all the vegetables in the world everyday. Fruits are not vegetables okay since they are sweet and contain sugar. Secret to getting slim is torture.
Eat 5 times per day
I eat 5 times of what I hate to eat-vegetables and spinach so that I become weak.
That is how I stay faithful with my love KFC. I only can see him once a month. Dull food just like my life. stew, steamed, boiled. Fishes, eggs and vegetables are in every meals. Also I don't eat after 8pm.
Have family members that eat like dinosaurs
Just now I said to get new mom, now you get family members that eat like dinosaurs. Stingy mum that cooks very little, you can only eat a little. Forget rice, rice made you wide.
Have a fixed time to eat
Yoyo eat time, body going yoyo too. There is no need for a schedule so just eat whenever you feel like it. Confuse your stomach so that you can store more fats inside your body. Don't forget to eat all the potato chips that you want. More fats yo for world end.
Lastly bonus -secret food item
What my mum made me drink after I just eat one fried chicken.
Granny Smith apple with the pulp. No sugar or whatever. Guarantee to make you lose all that fried chicken out of your system.
If you are allergic to apple then go for bittergourd. No sugar okay.

Since last year, many brands are coming up with products that mimic the results that one can get at the saloon or at the skin clinic. Not everyone has the time to actually go to the saloon for 3hours for hair care and even when I go most of them are full so I am just lazy to return.
Anywhere is my experience with Tosowoong Magic Self Down Perm which I bought it to use for my hair.
I have Asian coarse wavy dark brown hair and now I start having grey hair already going near 40 now. My hair isn't those soft hair although I wish it is.

TOSOWOONG Magic Self Down Perm is an at-home down perm that calms and flattens puffy bangs in a quick and easy way.
A wash-off type hair treatment to control frizz by adding moisuture and sealing the cuticle which lasts up to 3 weeks.
Packed with nourishing ingredients such as Argan Oil, Baobab Tree Seed Oil to soften, moisturise hair.
How to use: 1. Dry hair after shampoo. 2. Spread a generous amount over areas where moisture needed. 3. Leave on for 5-20 minutes. 4. Rinse thoroughly.
Packaging: It comes in a nice black tube with black box. Everything is written in Hangul so you have to find out the ingredients from other site.
I am not good with hair products so what I am talking about is just from my personal experience with this product. Just make sure not to apply the ingredients on to the face since products for hair are not for the face.
Texture: It comes out in opaque white cream. Application is really easy. It has very strong scent that last one day after washing my hair twice. For some people the scent lasted two days.
Review: For my long hair, I need to use the whole tube. If you hair is short above the ears, then you will need less products. It does straighten the hair down depending on what of hair you have. For my coarse Asian slight wavy hair, my results just look natural. If you already have straight hair, it will be very straight like you did it at hair saloon. The scent is the same as the one you get in hair salon. The result lasted on me for two weeks. Depending on hair types, results can varies. It does make my hair softer, silkier and more manageable just like hair treatment.
Overall: It is a great hair at home hair treatment product and very affordable indeed. My hair does feel softer and silkier. I will get it again in the future. If the only thing I don't really like is just the very strong scent that lasted for one day. I had to wash my hair with shampoo to reduce the scent.

Most of the ingredients are surfactant. Since it is a cleanser that will not stay on the face for more than 5minutes as long it is not irritating it is okay.
The rest the ingredients are for hydration, emulsifier, texture, pH adjusting and preservatives.
Texture: The cleansers come out in opaque white. It bubbles up a lot. There is no added fragrance so the scent isn't exactly nice. It smells like some damp clothes. The cleanser isn't low pH actually since it has pH8. Then some people has no problem with it.
Review: The foam cleanser does bubble up. It can remove makeup and 90% of my sebum proof makeup. It doesn't feel particular hydrating after cleansing so I do use a moisturiser. My family doesn't have any problem with it since they have normal skin without acne.
Overall: I think it is an okay cleanser if you don't mind the pH8. It is not particular amazing or reduce my redness or my acne.
