FOOD REVIEW ON NYONYA COLORS MIDVALLEY

One need to line up and know the number of the table so it is better to get a seat first before lining up to make the order. They will send the order to the table later. The nasi lemak is wrapped with the banana leaves and it will be heat up for the customer unless you requested that you want to eat it cold. It is quite small but it is really tasty considering that a common food such as nasi lemak is also well-made. The rice smell of fresh coconut milk and the sambal is just nice. It is not too spicy or salty. The rice comes with half hard-boiled egg, anchovies and groundnuts. RM2.50

ABC

ABC is cooling especially on hot weather such as Malaysia.  There are generous of amount of cendol, jelly and also groundnut.  The cendol jelly is not fragrant but it soft.  The ice cream is really soft and melt quickly. Overall, this is average.

RM4

Pulut Panggang
Mini Green Ku - Mung Bean Fill
Talam

Pulut Panggang was not bad. The filling is not much but it is okay. The ‘pulut’ is a little hard but okay. Not that delicious but okay.

On the other hand, the mini green ku is actually tasteless. If not for the filling, it wouldn’t be edible. It is soft and quite bouncy. Just that I don’t find it particularly delicious.

The talam is sticky, tasteless and hard. I don’t enjoy this kueh the most. The green comes from colouring and not from real pandan leaves.

Mee Jawa

Mee jawa gravy is thick and a little salty but it goes well with the plain ingredients. The yellow mee is cooked perfectly that it is not too soft or hard and it goes so well with the jawa gravy. The portion is of medium size and I think that the prawn cracker that comes with is okay. Too bad that there is no prawn on the crackers or else it will be better.

It works fast too if you are using it correctly. I will tell you the do and don't later at the end of this post.


I have been having serious breakouts on the jaw line and it is that same part because I keep on pinching and hurting that area too much. I know, I just can't help it especially when I feel a bump on face during washing face with cleanser XP. I don't even know how my fingers gets to that bump =(.

side of the box

side of the box-list of ingredients

tops of the box and inside the box

Shills mandelic acid renew essence bottle. The bottle is made from black glasses so becareful

the Shills seal to show that it is original Mandelic Acid skin renew essence

the dropper with the colourless essence

I like the packaging very much.  It is looking so much like cosmeceutical products.  The black glass bottle is to protect the active ingredients from getting destroy from the sunlight! There is the dropper to control the amount of essence use and for hygienic purposes.

Mandelic acid is one type of the chemical light peel for skin =)  .  It is just like those salicylic peel, enzyme peel and glycolic peel on skin.  So, it is really mild on skin but one can still obvious effect on the skin.

Since it is in form of essence, it work and it wouldn't be too strong until our skin couldn't take it.  The essence smells flowery and does not smell anything acidic at all.  The smell disappear once the essence get absorb into the skin.  I love the smell very much.  Absorbtion rate is really fast

DO's and DON'T
1.  The products is actually very effective on its own so DO NOT use any AHA (alpha hydroxy) , BHA (salicylic)or retinol products when you are using Shills Acid skin renew essence.
2.  Please follow the instruction properly.  Use a hydrating serum or hydrating moisturiser.  NO pore minimizing, oil control moisturiser at NIGHT with this Shills mandelic acid!  Mist is NOT ENOUGH.
3.  NO SCRUB on you face.
4.  USE the Shills mandelic acid only at night.  ONE or TWO drops for an area. (cheeks, forehead, nose+chin).  DON'T USE TOO MUCH.
5.  During day, make sure you wear sunscreen or block and best to use some hydrating products if your skin feels dry.

This is an essence but it is in form of oil.  The oil is colourless and will just soak into the skin like water.  That is why it is called essence.  Seriously, I don't even need to massage the essence or anything.  It just disappear into thin air immediately leaving no trace at all.  Seriously, no even a hint of oil on the skin!  So, don't let the essence on your palm for more than 2seconds or else you would need to use more.  I use about one drop for one area so 3-5 drop is enough for the whole face.  I think one bottle could last me 3 months.

When I am using this Shill Mandelic Acid Skin Renew Essence, I don't even have bumps on my face!  It prevent the skin from having those bumps for even appearing which is super amazingly considering that it is just a drugstore product!

The results?  My skin is super super smooth after few days of usage.  On the first day, my acne is already disappearing and healing.  The skin texture is also turning to feel smooth.  This is one of the product that I will put in my list for acne prone skin that is a SURE MUST TRY product.  Just remember to really follow the instruction and the "Do and Don't"  .

Here is the results =)

results for four days =)

Can you believe the results?  Redness was gone immediately on the second day and the acnes shrunk by day four.  I think this is one product that many had overlook and it sure deserve more love =) .  As for the price, I think it is worth and cheaper since one can use it for 3months and IT WORKS!  What else can you ask for it?  Oh, gosh.  I keep saying how amazing it is but it really does works.  YES, I will buy this again =).

I can say the claims that Shills said about Shills Mandelic Acid skin Renew Essence is true and not just some gimmick to lure or cheat customers.

Product, Shills renew acid skin renew essence 30ml retails at Rm129 .  You could buy from Shills website , Shills outlet, Sasa outlet or online website such as Hermo and HiShop.

For more information, please visit Shills official website . Product is sponsored but I am not paid for my review.  The opinions expressed here are my own and truly honest as always.

SKINCARE TIPS: HABITS THAT CAUSE BAD SKIN

Of course, sometimes we do not realize what do to our skin and later on gets shocked by the amount of pimples or acne on our skin later. Then, we have to go crying to dermatologist or google up every day on how to cure acne. I had been through that phase before except the part of going to see dermatologist.

1. Keep trying and changing skincare products
This is a habit that really cause havoc on your skin. I didn’t realize that I was committing this mistake until some time ago.

I was having full blown acne and yet I keep changing skincare products within a short amount of time like 2 weeks. Used a new sets of skincare products, then change to another set after two weeks. Seriously, this can just destroy your skin since there are too much chemicals reaction going on your skin and your skin balance is thrown out of the window.

Sign of your skin is out of tune will be red skin, more acne or pimples popping out on your skin. Don’t try to use whole set of newly bought dermatologist claimed products to calm down your skin now. It won’t work.

You would have calm down your skin by either going to see the dermatologist, skin clinic or use real products such as seaweed, kelp, egg white or aloe vera. Do not try any skincare products at that moment except very gentle skin cleanser (no whitening, brightening, acne or deep clean cleanser).

I heard that one can use seaweed powder or seaweed to calm the skin. However, I couldn’t find it in Malaysia unless you ask your friend to get it from Sabah. The closest I can get for seaweed is the La Belle mud powder mask.

2. Trying skincare products that are not suitable to your skin type

This is another common mistake. We normally wanted the best for our skin but then we are easily blinded by so many skincare products, reviews and we usually wanted if possible fast result.  Thus it is easy to make the wrong choice.

Acne prone skin shouldn’t use skincare products meant for dry sensitive skin because it can clogged the pores and more pimples popping up.

That is why some would go and see a good dermatologist to know the products suitable for their skin type. So, understand your skin type and your skin condition.



3. Not knowing ingredients that can cause you reaction/ sensitivity

This is a no brainer. As we grow older, the skin reacted to different type of simulation. No everyone has the same reaction to the ingredients in the skincare products. So, only try one products at one time to know if you are allergic to it.

Next, avoid that ingredients that next time.



4. Too enthusiastic or too lazy to take care of your skin

This is of course a no brainer. No one would have a beautiful skin like a baby after 20 years old without taking care of it. Don’ trust your friend if she tells you that she only use that one cleanser and she have super smooth skin. They might be going to see the skin doctor or use special active products or tons of products behind your back. After all, most women in Malaysia do not like people to know that they are going through so much effort and money to have fabulous skin. They might even tell you they wake up looking that great. How I wish that is true.

On the other hand, if you are too enthusiastic on using too many products on your skin can cause disruption to your skin. Don’t over exfoliate your skin with scrubs, deep clean mask or cleanser. Nothing good comes out from being overboard so be moderate but don’t be lazy! If your skin is already fabulous, don't try to suddenly add some ingredients that said to fabulous into your skincare regime.  You might break out from it.


5. Not monitoring your food intake

You should know they type of food that can cause you allergy and food that can cause you acne. Of course you could eat them sometime but not everday no matter how much you like to eat them. I wrote about food that cause acne some time ago.


6. Not sleeping on time

I don’t know if this is true since I find that people who do not sleep on time tend to have bad skin. However, it is one of the factor that cause the skin to be bad and some dermatologist said sleep deprivation has nothing to do with acne. Well, I don’t know if that is true now but I am sure my skin look so much better when I have a good night sleep.

So, it is up to you to not believe it but it sure can cause trigger the skin to age faster.



So, now do you commit any of the skincare habits?

REVIEW ON THAI RESTAURANT IN MERSING

This is a new shop. Previously there was another name to it. I find that this shop is in Chinese and those tourist that comes to Tioman and they wanted to order beer but unfortunately none could speak or understand English.

menu is all in chinese

Even the menu is in Chinese and I have to order in Chinese or else I don’t get to eat. One has to be able to speak Mandarin or understand Chinese to make order in this shop. So, I find all the western tourists looks for the other Chinese shop nearby for beers.

I ordered a few dishes from this shop. The seating in this shop is comfortable. Service is quite fast too.

lo han kuo drink

starlight tofu dish

Three starlight taufu dish was also only okay. The dry tofu was too dried up as it was cooked for too long. It shouldn’t be cut into too pieces as it had made the tofu hard. The sauce was not bad as it was salty enough and does go well with the rice. Too bad the sauce was too watery as too much water was added into it.

sweet sour pork

 We ordered three dishes . The first sweet sour pork is okay. The pork is fried too crispiness but too bad the sauce soften the meat and the crispiness was lost. The sauces was not salty enough as it was bland. The vegetables accompanied it was cut into too big pieces.

Wong tai vegetables

Wong tai vegetables doesn't contain too much of chilies seed and it was not too spicy at all. The vegetables was cooked quite well. It was not too soft or too hard that the crunchiness was lost. I think it was the best vegetables among the three dishes served. I do like this dishes as it goes so well with the rice. Sauce was not too salty or too spicy.

wong tai vegetables RM 6
sweet sour pork RM 10
starlight tofu dish RM 8
lo han kuo drink RM1

REVIEW ON LA BELLE GOLD ESSENCE AND LA BELLE HYDRA ESSENCE

Hi, I hope everyone is having a good day =) .  So, here am I back with another review.

I wrote about the amazing La Belle Acnex ampoules and mask here so check it out if you haven't.

So, here I am to introduce you to few more types of essence.

becareful when open ampoule

Essence is not a toner since it contains active ingredients with specific reason for skin.  If you are unsure, Here is a post I wrote.

LA Belle Hydra Essence- Hydra Essence contains high concentration of H20 &HA as well as blended with natural herbal extract is perfect combination to hydrate and & rejuvenate skin. It locks moisture and restore elasticity of the skin, hence minimize wrinkle and give the skin a youthful appearance.



Overall, Hydra essence makes my skin more hydrated, moist and no feeling of tightness.  The fine lines on my forehead are not obvious when I frown.  The makeup adhere to skin which is more hydrated too.  My skin is more elastic.  Since I don't have wrinkles yet I am not sure how it will perform on my skin.

LA BELLE HYDRA ESSENCE

I said that I am in love with Acnex and also La belle Gold Essence before right?

La belle Gold Essence use 24K Pure gold leaf helps to slow collagen depletion and prevent sagging skin. It also assists in protection against pollution effects & damaging UV rays. Gold speeds up cellular processes and active regeneration to regenerate healthy, firm skin cells and reduce fine line & wrinkle.

LA BELLE GOLD ESSENCE

So, here is the Gold essence.  There is really gold inside the essence and it makes me feel like a princess using luxurious skincare on me =) .  The essence is just a little thicker than ampoule but it is also watery in texture.  Penetration is very easy and there is no oily residue left on the skin so be sure it is very comfortable in using them.  I love it because I don't like anything that is thick and oily.


 For better results, use it together with ampoules.  According to Cheryl from http://sweetampoules.blogspot.com, mix Eye Luxe ampoule with Gold  Essence and you will see the results within few days of usage.  Well, it is true and it works amazing to reduce the eye bag and dark circles.  My skin is much softer on the days when I am using the gold essence.

the results of using La Belle gold essence

Voila, can you notice the results?  Could you that my face and eyes area was much brighter. I was already out of the eye lux ampoule so I used the La Belle gold essence on its own.  I used it on my eyes since my eyes need this the most, more than other parts of my face.  My eyes actually look worse because I went camping.


They have special package from RM78 to Rm158 for different skin types . Check the link here

Essence range are from RM58 to RM70 per box depending on the type of essence. There is even a special bridal ampoules that is very affordable =). Do go to http://sweetampoules.blogspot.com and check them out.

SKINCARE TIPS: KOREAN SKINCARE TIPS 2

Hi everyone, I shared few Korean skincare tips and I am back for second post. Everyone wants a good skin =) . So this is what I had gathered after watching their famous beauty show up to now.

1. Using soda water to clean skin
This is quite expensive if you plan to use carbonated water every day. One can of soda water cost about RM1.60.  It is such a rave in Korea now.  There is even carbonated products in the market already.  I saw one bottle of Spritzer carbonated bottle is selling for RM3.90 in Malaysia.  It is said to deep clean the skin from dust.

2. Using spinach water to clean skin
Seriously people like me would never do this because I will usually end up eating the spinach than using the water on my skin. It is said to deep clean the skin.

3.Using sea kelp/algae to clean skin
This is know for cleaning and calming the skin. Just blend the kelp with water. Put a paper mask on the face and put the kelp on the face.  It is very hard to find algae in Peninsular but it is common in Sabah.  So, next time do buy some when you are there.
Again, I am too lazy to do it.

4.Using yogurt to clean the skin
Yogurt is good for skin but again it will just go into my stomach. OMG, so many things go into my stomach and I sound like a serious glutton.  Yogurt is good for acne prone skin because it has lactic acid. However, sorry I love food so much that it is better to go into my stomach.

5. Using watermelon to cool the skin
I know this from the Korean beauty show Get it Beauty. They use watermelon as mask. Ermm, again I rather eat this.  Into my stomach it goes. Too lazy to DIY.
Watermelon is known to cool down the body by cooling the skin by 3 degree which is the highest among other fruits =) .

6. Use CC cushion for more moisture
According to the test the beauty show did, CC cushion contains more moisture than BB cushion so it is recommended to use CC cushion for the moisture benefit.
I tried CC cream and BB cream and I found that CC cream does contain more moisture than BB cream.


7. Using Epsom salt with cleanser

I tried using Epsom salt with cleanser and it does help to clean the skin as well to calm the skin down. It doesn’t get rid of acne totally but it is antibacterial. I think some people use it as mask too.


8. Drink 2litre of plain water everyday
This is a no brainer for a beautiful skincare. There is even an article by Daily Mail of the miracle of drinking 3litres of water everyday and the skin look younger 10 years! Just make sure that your food plus your water intake reach about 2 litre. Yes, of course it works. =) So drink up. No pun intended.

REVIEW ON LC DERMA UV CC CREAM SPF 30

Have you tried any CC cream before?  It is a new craze after the BB cream and CC cream is sure different from BB cream because of skincare benefits that CC cream provides.  Korean makeup uses BB cream, CC cream and also CC cushion for their 'Oh so natural' makeup.

I have my fair share of getting into the bandwagon of CC cream.  Some was a hit and some are just not as awesome as I thought that it would be.  Let just say that when I saw this LC Derma UV CC cream SPF 30, I was not thinking much of it until I tried it and YES I am impressed.  Well, more impressed than some high ended CC cream.  Continue reading or jump to the end of the post to see why I am so impressed with this CC cream.

LC DERMA UV CC CREAM SPF 30 Box

First, there is no preservative in their products =) .  I find that almost every other CC cream contains preservative.  If you do not believe me, then check if there are paraben or other type of preservative.  This one doesn't have preservative that will hurt or cause allergic in the future!

LC DERMA UV CC CREAM SPF 30

After opening one should finish using it within 6 months.  It is stated on the box.

simple plastic bottle that can be recycle later =)

I really like this concept as the bottle is easy and really light to be brought around.  I don't like to carry heavy bottle of makeup around.  I don't have to worry if I drop it to the floor too as I am quite clumsy.

can you see the word Mega+ ?

The expiry date is written on the bottom of the bottle.

You can take a look at the bottom of the bottle and noticed the word    'mega +' .  They are using Germany type of airtight bottle!  So, do not worry of the air going into the bottle and oxidized the CC cream.  

ingredients list at the back of the bottle

simple and easy to use pump type of cap.

The pump is easy to use and one can control the amount of cc cream coming out from the pump.  I need one pump for a light coverage.  Two pump would be enough for a full coverage on the days my skin isn't behaving that nice.  Don't be too greedy and use too much because it will brighten the skin so much that you would look too white.  The CC cream is actually looks good on its own because it doesn't oxidized on me at all.  The particle is so fine it glide on my skin.

Testing on the CC cream

Try this test to know how smooth is the CC cream.
1. Take an ice cube
2.  Rub it on the cc cream.
3. Voile.  See, it doesn't stick onto the cc cream no matter how hard I rub!  That shows how fine the CC cream is!

the results on my hands

The cc cream take some time to adjust to my skin tone colour.  I was at first shocked at how white it was on my skin but it change to my skintone colour.  It sure make my skin brighter than before.  It look very natural too.  The cream is really hydrating and it is not oily at all.  It sure doesn't cake up or run into the crease of the nasalobial line at all!  It also doesn't make my skin patchy by the end of the day so I find this is really good as most BB cream can make my skin dry.

before and after

Can you see the immediate differences? 

I think every skin types would like this very much as it make the skin moist and hydrated.  .  My face looks  a little oily on the T-zone after 4hours without primer but nothing serious that I can just bloat with a tissue.

One features that I love about this CC cream it that it is Waterproof and Sweat proof ! My skin virtually look like it is Photoshop in real life and no one knows about it.  Normally, CC cream will come off when I blot but this CC cream won't budge no matter how hard I rub it.  I love this waterproof feature very much.  Even when I blot it with tissue, the CC cream doesn't come out at all.  No one will know that you are wearing make up at all!

This CC cream works equally good and on par with all the counters brands =)  .Of course I would buy this again after I finish this bottle =) .

RANDOM: MOTHER'S DAY POEM

Mother's Day is coming and I am sure many people are thinking of what to give to their mother. =)

Have you got something for your mum?  Or you are out of idea on what to get your mum?  The list should be endless since many brands will come out with sets of skincare, makeup, bath sets and restaurant would have special sets for Mother's Day.

As for me, mother's day is everyday if it is possible but with making my mum fuming in between XP  .  I am not a perfect daughter hahahahaha.

Mother's Day is a day that we will avoid eating out, going out or shopping outside.  I don't mind paying the extra but the thought of waiting hours for food annoys my mum.  So, we usually celebrate few weeks before or weeks after.  Just going for dinner or something nice.  It only started few years ago so it is not a every year thing.  I don't get my mum flowers because she hates something that is not practical.lol

I wrote this for a competition but I don't even think that I will win or anything but well just sharing it here.





Connect

I envy my friends for being close with their mum,

My mum and I were just like cats and dogs,

I listen to Katty Perry but my mum listen to some Chinese opera song

I read The Star newspaper but my mum can’t

I like spaghetti but my mum only eats Chinese food

I am fond of fried chicken but my mum cooks me fishes

I watch English drama but my mum watch Hong Kong drama

I love dark blue but my mum hates it

In many ways we are not connected

But One thing for sure- We are connected by LOVE

My mum loves me unconditionally

She rushed me to clinic in the middle of the night

She stayed with me the whole night when I was having fever,

Learn to ride the motorcycle just to send me to school which is 1hour away,

Stayed firm that we must finish our school when financial crisis hit my family,

And trained us to be independent.

My mum is not perfect or educated

But I would not trade her for someone else.




So, what do you do for Mother's Day?

REVIEW ON LA BELLE CUSTOMISED AMPOULES FOR ACNE PRONE SKIN AND EYE BAGS

 LA BELLE AMPOULES&ESSENCE COMES IN THIS ELEGANT BOX

La Belle is are made famous for their Fair Makeup Ampoules that have 2 in 1 function- as a base before putting make ups and as a hydration ampoules to our skin. Normally we use the makeup to make it long lasting. Other types of ampoules are catered for skincare benefits and it works way faster because of more concentrated. I was excited because the ampoules are specially customized for my skin type. I wouldn't know what to choose looking at so many choices around.

There are two major skin problems in my life! One is my dearie puffy eyes which I already gave up and also my pimples - although it is not really serious but seriously who like it, right?

Here is a little about La Belle.

La Belle Product is mainly extracted from natural ingredients, the delicate blend of ingredients are so fine that allow for fast and effective absorption into the deeper layers of the skin.

Age, environment, and lifestyle are all factors that can affect the tone, texture, and resiliency of the skin, these treatment based products target skin's ever-changing needs with highly effective botanically-based formulas. Enriched with vitamins, plant emollients, and natural protestants, these formulas can be incorporated into skin's daily regimen-or used as needed to supplement any skin care routine to achieve better Effect.

Here is the instructions for my skin type:

Day time
Cleanser > toner >acnex/ pore minimising ampoules > day cream

Night time
Cleanser>toner > hydra> night cream> right before bed,  treatment essence (La belle Gold Essence, La Belle Eye Luxe

Pampering
Cleanser >  Toner > Powder mask > treatment ampoule/essence



The ampoules, essence comes in 3.5ml or 0.12 fl.oz. The bottles are really cute but one need to be careful when opening.  You won't need to use a lot of ampoules to see the results.  Besides, ampoule is very concentrated so a little is enough.

Visit this link to know the differences between ampoules and essence.  Essence and ampoule is not the same.


How to use/open Ampoule/ Essence
1. Firstly, peel off from the area which show an arrow on the aluminium cap . Throw away the aluminium cap after peel off.
2. If you plan to use the essence for few days, you may pour into a small bottle
3. Then you pour the remaining amount into you palm, and then slowly spread it evenly on your face
4. Lastly, massage upward , to ensure every part of your face is able to absorb.



Ampoules are basically scent-less except for Acnex because it is formulated with liquorice and herb extracts and with antiseptic effects but it is nothing unpleasant and the smell will disappear immediately once applied to skin. The ampoule gives a cooling sensation and it absorbs quickly into the skin cells. Essences absorbs way slower because it is slightly heavier in texture compare to the ampoules. I would suggest one to incorporate ampoule into their skin regime for a faster results especially for a special events. I had been using La Belle ampoule and it improves my skin so much. You may want to know My favorite ampoule that helped my skin? Of course the Acnex ampoule that works really fast to reduce those acne and pimples, Pore Minimizing and La Belle Gold Essence.

Here is the results for using the special customised ampoules for 19 days.

can you notice the amazing results?

The pimples reduce its redness by day 7 and my pores were much smaller. I love how my skin was reacting on day 19. In case if anyone wondering why it stop at Day 19 , it is because I went for camping on the next day...Sigh, Just when my skin starts to look fabulous and it's camping time! My skin turned bad after the three days of camping due to lack of sleep, not drinking enough of water and NO Skincare products!! I will put that up as second part since it is not fair to show you the skin that went extreme harsh treatment for few days.

Results for using eye Luxe Ampoules

Here is the results for my eye area.  No editing done to it. If you notice my eye area are really brighten up.  I was really surprise after looking at the photos.  My eyes is lifted.  Of course my eye bags won't disappeared like magic since I have only been using it for 19 days.

La Belle Grey mud powder mask

La Belle Grey mud powder mask

Function: Rich in mineral to help calm down uncomfortable skin conditions, stabilize
skin pH. Helps clear skin pores & cleanses skin deeply.

Ingredients list: Diatomaceous earth, sodium alginate,algae

Procedures for the use of powder mask:
Mix 1 packet of powder mask with approximately 60ml of mineral water or 30ml of La Belle Rose Toner with 30ml mineral water (until it become a smooth paste).
Apply a thin layer of 1-3mm mask on face. After 15-30minutes drying, gently peel off the mask.

I actually divided the packet into two times usage.  Add 30ml water with 15ml La Belle Rose Toner.  Blend them and apply them quickly or else it will become gooey.  If look at the picture, yes it has become quite gooey on my face because I am slow in applying.  My face sure has become brighter and less red after using the mask =).
