SUNPLAY SPORT UV SUNSCREEN SPF120 PA++++ WITH WET SKIN TECHNOLOGY

I always on the go outdoors, I might not be as active as some of my other friends in outdoor sports activities, but nevertheless, I relish brisk walking, and sometimes jungle trekking and so on... and also spending time in the pool etc...

Christmas Charity Event for the Underprivileged Kids

The Christmas season or any festive season for that matters is always a great time to start thinking about helping other people. This includes providing food, clothing and toys for families to enable them to experience the joy of the Christmas Season. Giving warmth, love and hope. That’s what Christmas should be all about. Christmas and other festive seasons is after all a time to share our good fortune with our neighbours or those in need. And when we do that, it is also the time to reflect on how we can make those in need a little happier, and learn to be grateful for what we have, and to share a little of what we have to those in need..

HYDRATING OUR SKIN WITH HADA LABO’S KIWAMIZU LOTION

I am one of the many Malaysian women facing the problem of having oily yet dehydrated skin because of our Malaysian humidity....

Image may contain: outdoor

Did you know our skin tends to dry up faster when under air-conditioning, in an aircraft or even when we are outdoors under the scorching hot sun... This is why it is important for us to carry a face mist in our bag and spray frequently on our skin to maintain a hydrated skin. While in many cases, that may just be a quick fix to your problem, Hada Labo’s Kiwamizu Lotion actually promises and delivers a lasting hydrating effect.

Live with ease with the Honor 8

 

Don't you think it can be so frustrating at times when you run out of battery especially when you are waiting for an important call or email... or how annoying it is when your phone lag, and waste your time by taking it's own sweet time to start up and slowly allow you to access your device. I have been through that and I swear some moments like this can almost make you fling your smartphone to the wall or into the drain/lake... but oh dear, please don't do it... I am just saying it..... but well,  I have good news... 
finally, we Malaysians can use a smartphone without frustrations!

Have you ever been frustrated by your network provider...  Those frustrating moments like when you are trying to upload an Instagram photo but it decides to take 5 hours to upload because, your network provider just doesn’t care that you are paying for 3G or 4G or maybe how about when you are kind of lost and trying to check for directions on Waze or Google maps, but your network provider decides to make things harder for you by disappearing…

LOVING THE HADA LABO’S NEW 3D PERFECT GEL

 Our skin loses elasticity and radiance as we age... This would be because aging makes  our skin more susceptible to dryness as well as becoming thinner and paler. Therefore, it is  of utmost importance to incorporate targeted treatments into our skincare routine to treat and try to stop the effects of aging.


Hada Labo recently launched its 5-in-1 3D Perfect Gel. The 3D Perfect Gel is a multifunctional 5-in-1 moisturizer that helps lift and define the skin’s 3D contoured appearance for a more sculpted look.

Living in the city can be stressful, and so is work, going for events, traveling, juggling family and all.. and well, misbehaving at food… I have to admit I love my food and I also love snacking… and therefore, from time to time I do some detox.


Did you know that the toxin in your body cause you to feel tired and even drain you out so much so that you might have had 8 hours of sleep but you still feel just on an all time low… and this causes you to age faster … besides that, sometimes it also causes an outbreak of rashes, or pimples, and I am one of those who gets occasional rashes where I would just be spending minutes scratching and scratching until it turns bright red.....
