Pulut Bakar, Bar Bee Nyonya Kuih
This is the aunthetic Pulut Bakar (grilled glutinous rice) . Rest assure about the colouring as they use colouring from a blue flower plant.  The beautiful blue colour comes from that flower and it is in fact good for eyes.  Inside the Pulut Bakar contains dried fine shrimp which is really nice.  It is wrap with banana leaves. Mmm, so delicious.

REVIEW ON BANISH PUMPKIN ENZYME MASQUE


When sometimes smell so good, one should feed it to my skin right?

Now you can with Banish Pumpkin enzyme masque. XD

I was actually very excited to receive this wash off mask inside my package =)  .  I have checking out reviews after reviews and really do wonder about this Banish Pumpkin enzyme masque which is quite a sensation in the beauty world.

As usual, I am skeptical about it and just can't wait to try it out on my face.  If you are not sure about skin type, I have combination sensitive acne prone skin which makes it hard to find skincare products.

Our Pumpkin Masque may be the greatest thing made out of pumpkins since pumpkin pie. It even smells just as good! If you want to know how to get rid of acne our Pumpkin enzyme masque may be the answer and it's a customer favorite! Why? It contains lots of vitamins and enzymes to help improve your skin's texture and keep your skin looking healthy!

Banish Pumpkin enzyme masque comes in a dark glass jar.  The design and everything else is simple but I think it doesn't matter as long the products work on my skin.

If you like the smell of pumpkin pie, then you will for sure like this =). I am very much in love with the smell of food but of course I know this is to feed my face.  Application is really smooth and easy.  If you have sensitive skin like me, try to control the amount to about the tip of your little finger.  Also remember to patch test because I do feel the 'hot' sensation which can turn into burning if you apply a lot.  Apply about a pea size for one area.
The reason for it because of the cinnamon and nutmeg powder. These two ingredients are good for acne prone skin but it can burn a lot especially if you have highly thin skin.

Also, I would recommend to 1-2 application per week at night instead of 3 times which is more for really oily skin type.  Also do not use other BHA or AHA on the day you use Banish Pumpkin enzyme masque else it can hurt or you will highly over exfoliate and have red skin afterwards. Another is moisturise your skin and don't leave it to dry after washing off the mask.

When I look into the ingredients, there are many ingredients that helps with reducing inflammation, killing acne causing bacteria, moisturise and also exfoliate the skin.  I do like that the first ingredient is their star ingredients and not somewhere low in the list.  Other ingredients such as Bilberry, Sugar Cane, Vitamin C, Rosemary, Ginger and Glycolic acid are some of my favourite ingredients to reduce acne.
However, do check just in case some of the ingredients are not for you.

As for me, I use it twice a week and each time, Banish Pumpkin enzyme masque helps to make my skin smooth XD.  It does help to remove blackheads, shrink the the size of acne and smoother out the texture which is great.  My skin looks better the next day.

Overall, I think Banish Pumpkin enzyme masque is great for people who is looking for an exfoliating mask, couldn't handle other exfoliating products in other forms(serum, toner, essence), combination or oily skin type, acne prone, like natural organic products and cruelty free products.



Product retails for
Banish Pumpkin enzyme masque 50ML, USD35

This  is Abdullah Mastan Ghany Mee Rebus speciality.  Remember to try this because it is good. The yellow noodles comes with boiled eggs, prawn cracker, boiled cube size potato, a little toufu and beans sprout(I asked to not include it since i hate been bean sprouts).  The sauce is yes orange colour. It is sweet, sour and spicy so if you hate spicy food then I guess you will probably not able to enjoy this goodness.

However, it was way tastier during their grandfather(the first generation) . During that time it was wrap securely using banana leaves with newspaper and the crackers was so so so gooooooood.




Price:
Mee Rebus RM 4.50
ABC RM3.20
Sirap RM1.20

REVIEW ON FIRST COSMETIC MULBIT MEDIST (Vitamin Mist)

Hi beautifuls,

This month, I received First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) from BNT News.

Do you feel the same as I am? I fell for gimmicky products that promises to do something amazing for the skin  but at the same questioned if it will do something. I am a skeptical person but at the same time just do not want to miss something to make my skin..better?  Who don't right?

So here is the First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) review.

 Here is the ingredient lists.

 The box containing the products are really pretty and beautiful.  Inside, there are two bottles. One is the princess looking plastic bottle containing the capsule which look like medicine pills to me.
Another, bottle is a glass bottle to use as mist.

There are four colours that represent different purposes so think of as vitamin water for the face.

Green: Anti-wrinkle
Blue: Skin reproduction
Yellow: Whitening
Pink: Skin condition management


*CAUTION*
Don’t forget to re-open the cap 1-2 hour after closing it to release carbonated gas (if you close it before the tablets are melted, the spray will get ruined due to pressure

The ingredients sure do interesting with ingredients such as trehalose, niacinamide, biotin, hydrolyzed collagen, adenosine, strawberry, lemon, lavender, camellia sinenis , aloe vera, rosemary and citric acid.

I do like the glass bottle since I do like mist which is easy to use.  I use it as mist or with compressed sheet mask depending on my skin condition of the day.  It does stain if the water landed on things with whitish stuff so be careful.  Also make sure to wash the hands if you have any contact with the mist as I do feel like I have layer of soda powder on my hands.

Put warm water into the glass about 2/3 and two capsules and wait for the capsules to just melt.  I do like the satisfaction of seeing the capsules melted colouring the water.  There is some sort of fragrance-the kind of fragrance you get with perfume.  I think artificial smell especially in a skincare products is no longer a popular factor since it does not have any effect in making the products more effective.  Besides, many people find artificial fragrant irritating.  There are some sort of colouring in the capsules.(No idea if the colouring is natural coloring)

The Yellow (Whitening) does provide immediate brightening effect on the skin which lasted a few hours.  I think it does work best before using makeup on the face or as mist to set up the makeup.

The Green: (Anti-wrinkle) is just normal hydration to me since I don't get to use it long enough to see much effect.

The Blue: (Skin reproduction): It hydrates my skin and slight brightening.

I use the Pink: (Skin condition management) I use this capsule the most to see if it helps my acne prone skin.  It helps to calm my skin but not sure if it does anything in clearing my breakouts.

I also tried using them with compressed mask to test the effect and I think it is mostly hydration to me. I can't finish the bottle of the mist alone in a day and keeping it next day does decrease the effect compare to using it immediately after the capsules melted off.

I am not sure if there are much effect at all since I am not used to the strong artificial fragrance and the skin on my face tends to get really irritated from prolong use of fragrance so I guess that is the reason that I am not seeing much effect from using the First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist).

Overall, First Cosmetic Mulbit Medist (vitamin Mist) is a fun Princess looking mist which has interesting concept. It think the product will have better effect on someone that doesn't have problem with fragrance.  Also normal skin type will find the vitamin mist capsules easy to use and cute at that.
