7 DAYS OF ASIAN FOOD

Hi foodies,

Recently I have been taking videos of what I eat so why not I just share with you on what I normally eat in Malaysia.  There many cheap options when it comes to food in Malaysia.  Also  the reason we don't need  to pay tips 😁 makes it easier to get food and do some cooking.

What I have here is just the normal food for pores like me and not some food available in high restaurant so it is closed to what typical working people eat daily.  I try to eat healthy by having vegetables in my diet.

As for one of the day, you may noticed that I eat only twice since I skipped one of the meals because I was almost late to work thus I did brunch.  Here is the 7 Days of Asian Food.

What do you eat in your country?
Thank you for visiting and let me know if you have any questions about those food or suggestion of ideas.

Hi beautiful,

Swanicoco is one of the brand that appears in home shopping in Korea for their quality in their skincare products.  If you are looking to try out one of the brands that is popular in Korea then look no further than Swanicoco.

Here is a review of their propolis honey hydrogel sheet mask, Swanicoco Overnight Intensive Recharging Hydrogel Mask Pack.

Swanicoco Overnight Intensive Recharging Hydrogel Mask Pack

Swanicoco product consists of 90% to 100% natural ingredients, risen to the top of Rankey.com’s list of natural cosmetics in Korea.  Their standout products are the Bitamin C line, the Centella Asiatica Salve and PHA 10% Coco Soft Peeling Cream.
Swanicoco harnesses Korea’s high-tech biotechnology to provide products that are science-based, ranging from epidermal growth factors to snail mucin to fermented ingredients. Founded by Seong Chunseon as a way to treat her family’s sensitive skin, Swanicoco soon expanded after getting rave reviews of her naturally fermented soaps from her neighbors.


Swanicoco Overnight Intensive Recharging Hydrogel Mask Pack contains gold and honey.

This mask also has a patented embossing hydrogel sheet, that adheres easily to your skin, helping your skin absorb all its nutrients effectively.
It removes skin waste and is a highly nourishing treat for you and your skin

Swanicoco Overnight Intensive Recharging Hydrogel Mask Pack easily adheres to skin, removes skin waste, and is highly nourishing. This mask contains gold and honey and is a patented embossing hydrogel sheet.

Ingredients:
Water, Glycerin, Dipropylene Glycol, Niacinamide, 1,2-Hexanediol, Chondrus Crispus (Carrageenan) Extract, Ceratonia Siliqua Gum, Glucomannan, Glycereth-26, Propolis Extract, Honey Extract, Xanthan Gum, PEG-60 Hydrogenated Castor Oil, Potassium Chloride, Ammonium Acryloyldimethyltaurate/VP Copolymer, Dextrin, Adenosine, Betaine, Allantoin, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Angelica Gigas Root Extract, Morus Alba Bark Extract, Luffa Cylindrica Fruit Extract, Butylene Glycol, Potassium Hydroxide, Sodium Hyaluronate, Hydrolyzed Collagen, Disodium EDTA, Synthetic Fluorphlogopite, Titanium Dioxide, Iron Oxides, Tin Oxide, Gold(1ppm), Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil


Swanicoco Overnight Intensive Recharging Hydrogel Mask Pack comes in one piece packaging with some information printed on the package.  The ingredients list is printed in Korean though.

Inside the mask is protected by two pieces of pearl paper and a thin plastic.  It is sandwiched in between the pearl paper and thin plastic.  The mask is separated into two pieces.  It is gel with gold flecks and honey shape pattern all over.

I do like the fit for my face.  The size is about the usual Asian face.  It has the special embossing pattern of honey comb patterns with fancy gold shinning.


It is paraben free, sulfate free, silicone free, alcohol free, Eu allergen free.

The ingredients are pretty good me since it contains lots of hydrating ingredients, calming ingredients and anti aging ingredients.  If you like propolis, this mask has lots of them which is nice.  There is also the BHA which is to help with exfoliating pores for acne prone skin.

The price is very affordable considering it is hydrogel since some paper sheet masks are more pricey than this.

The sheet mask adheres very well to my face and I can wear it for 45minutes compare to paper sheet masks.  It does becomes thin the longer you wait to remove it.  It doesn't irritate my skin or cause more acne.  It does make my face looks dewy, brighter and looks calm after I remove the sheet mask.  The scent is pretty light of honey.

Overall, Swanicoco Overnight Intensive Recharging Hydrogel Mask Pack is a nice affordable hydrogel sheet mask with propolis ingredients for special occassion or just for that dewy skin look instantaneously glowing for acne prone skin.

Here is a more detailed review on Orgga Bacca Bliss Daily Cleansing Powder.  It is not easy to find a cleanser with collodial oatmeal as its first ingredient.  With acne prone and sensitive skin, it is recommended to look into a cleanser that doesn't irritate.

Texture:  Pink powder with faint earthy strawberry scent.  The medium is of medium kind which is not too fine and not grainny.  I use boiled water and all a little with dropper to make that gluey texture for mask.

Review: As cleanser, I find it better to use it as a morning cleanser.  It is not strong enough to clean makeup at night so therefore use a makeup remover or another cleanser before hand.  As mask, I really like it a lot.  It really does reduce the irritation and redness on my face especially after I pick on my skin.  Colloidal oatmeal is a proven ingredient with science that reduce skin flare up applied topically.

UNBOXING CARE PACKAGE DURING QUARANTINE

Hi beautiful,

How are you during this time?  It is going to be 28 days of social distancing over here in Malaysia.  Thank you for those that had asked on how I am doing during this time.  One of my parents passed away so I was trying to deal with all the expensive funeral and emotion thing.

Also I am really thankful to a friend that sent to me a care package during this time when I really need food items now.  Also thank you for the brands that sent me some beauty products during this time 😄.

Take care of yourself.   I do know it is hard especially with high unemployment rate in some countries and giving up so many things to stay indoor.  Hopefully it will be over soon.

10 TYPES OF ACNE TREATMENTS FOR ACNE PRONE SKIN

Hi beautiful,


Acne is a skin condition that has been plaguing many of us. While there isn’t really a one shot vaccine that you can use to just stop acne in its track there are acne treatment available. You can find most of these treatments except for tretinoin and acutance in drugstore or pharmancies.

Here are 10 types of acne treatment for acne prone skin.

1.Retinoid

This is the strong stuff that is prescription in many countries.

The retinoids are forms that are related to vitamin A.  It is use in medicine since it regulates skin cell growth.

Retinol, vitamin A ester, Tretinoin, Tazorac, Adapalene are related to retinoid class.

Adapalene and retinol are available as drugstore skincare products.  Use only a pea size at night and use a sunscreen.

Not scientific proven that it is safe for pregnant mothers or breastfeeding mothers.
A study by U.S. government scientist (2012) suggests that retinyl palmitate may speed the development of skin tumors and lesions when applied in the presence of sunlight.

2. Azelaic acid

Azelaic acid is to calm inflammation and speed up skin turnover minus the pain of retinoid.  I haven't use the western strong version of it.  The one I am using is the Korean skincare products (Alivelab centella powder) which has centella asiatica in it as well.  Gentle and safe for pregnant mothers.  It is one of the acne treatment that is available but not much is talk about but it is a good acne treatment.

3. BHA (beta hydroxyl)

The common form is Salicylic Acid. Other forms- betaine salicylate or winter leaf extract are pretty weak.   It is fat soluble.  Recommended for deeper penetration( blackheads and pores problems).  BHA has anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties.

There are many products with BHA in them or mix in drugstore.   The strongest BHA is 2% and it is recommend to not use more than once a day.  Also not recommended for those allergic to aspirin.

4.  AHA (alpha hydroxy acid)

AHAs are water-soluble acids. Common AHAs are glycolic, lactic, malic, tartaric, citric and mandelic.  Ahas helps with skin texture by removing the outer layer of skin so that newer skin will take the place.  It helps with red pigmentation of acne scars and even out the skin.  I do use mandelic acid 5% to 10% for everyday usage.  Glycolic is very much stronger than mandelic acid but it does not mean the stronger the better.

5.  PHA (gluconolactone)

PHA is a polyhydroxy acid.  It is a hydrating, gentle exfoliating ingredient which can also protecting skin from some of the damaging effects of UV radiation. It has the benefits of AHA but being very gentle than most exfoliating acid.  Then again I haven’t use much to talk about this but there are some people that broke out from PHA.

6.  Sulphur

An ingredient used since ancient time to treat skin condition.  Sulfur presents in all living things.  Sulfur has antibacterial effects against the bacteria that cause acne. It is also antifungal so it is also use for  malassezia folliculitis or pityrosporum folliculitis.  It helps treat skin conditions such as seborrhea dermatitis and acne.  It does smell bad to some people.

7.  Benzoyl Peroxide

Benzoyl Peroxide is a drying agent to treat mild to moderate acne.  It is usually use with other acne treatment such as topical antibiotic to avoid antibiotic resistant.  On skin, benzoyl peroxide works by reducing the amount of acne-causing bacteria and by causing the skin to dry.  Normally applied on where the acne spots are.  It is not for sensitive and dry skin type.  The strength of dryness depends on the percentage which are  2.5% , 5% and 10% .

I can’t use it though since each time I tried to introduce it, my face just go red and itch.

8.  Topical Antibiotic

Topical antibiotic helps to reduce inflammation and decrease the amount of blocked pores.
Common antibiotic are erythromycin and clindamycin.  These are available as solutions, lotions, gels, and saturated pads.    It is not recommended to use it alone for a prolong period of time since it can cause resistance.  Topical antibiotic is usually used together with benzoyl peroxide to reduce the chance of resistance.

9.  Birth Control
If you are female with hormonal acne.  Dermatologist can suggest you birth control that contain estrogen and progesterone to regulate hormone and prevent acne.  It takes about from few weeks to 2 to 3 months for visible improvement.  However, once you are not on it, your acne will come back for sure.

10.  Natural
Natural does not mean it is going to be gentle and does not mean that it is 100% safe for everyone.

Here are some common ones for treating acne are tea tree, neem, centella asiatica and mugwort.

-Tea tree oil is the most common one for treating acne.  If you are using the oil, please use only a drop and buffer it or mix it with your moisturiser. Applying the oil straight to your skin is going to cause your skin to burn.

neem

-Neem comes in either oil and the powdered form.  It is not for pregnant mothers.   The oil is from the seed stink&it is only for topical application.  The powder comes from leaves which I mix with toner and applied onto my skin. It doesn't burn but it won't look or smell pretty at night.  The capsules containing powder can also be digested as replacement for birth control pills.  Men can also take it.   The real fresh neem taste really bitter though if you can find it in your country.

-Centella asiatica is one of my favourite ingredients since it is really gentle and use as medicine to speed up healing.  It is called as gotu kola, cica or tiger grass.  If you have the fresh drink, drinking it everyday makes you have beautiful clear skin.  The drink is called Rau Mau in Vietnamese.

I tried drinking it without sugar and it is really bitter so I just like it just on my skin.  It helps to heal and reduce inflammation on your skin.

Mugwort is antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory.  It is gentle and helps to speed healing.  It does have a strong scent if you plan to eat it.
