With the weather getting crazier nowadays, we have been reminding our loved ones to stay hydrated and consume more water. But, what about our skin? 

Do you know it's important to keep our skin hydrated at all times in order to have a healthy skin? Plus, with the haze situation, it could prevent itchiness to your skin too.

Thanks to the lovely people from Natta Cosme, I've been recently introduced to a skincare product from Thailand named YOKO.

YOKO has been established since 1999 and they have expanded their distribution market to more than 35 countries such as Hong Kong, India, Malaysia, United Kingdom, Middle East countries, Philippines and many more. 

Over the years, YOKO has maintain its high standard in product quality by using natural ingredients.

YOKO Milky Shower Cream

I am a sucker when it comes to milk, especially in beauty products. Milk is good for whitening and hydrating the skin, and I seriously need BOTH! The black and white design of the bottle reminded me a lot of a dairy cow!

Your skin loses moisture during shower. Instead of replacing the moisture, why not prevent it from happening?! YOKO Milky Shower Cream is specially formulated for the skin with selection of quality ingredients that contain beneficial moisturizing vitamins to allow deep moisturizing into skin:

Ever since then, Avène Hydrotherapy Centre has attracted 2800 patients per year who has benefited from this excellent products in France and 100 other countries. I've been given an chance to try out this amazing product and I would like to share with you on the Eau Thermale Avène Gentle Cleansing Foam.

The gentle cleansing foam was ALLURE Best of Beauty winner in 2013. It is specially formulated for normal to combination, and even sensitive skin! The cleanser might be gentle, but it can help to regulate excess oil and removes make-up leaving skin perfectly matte.

I always believe the saying "eyes are the windows to your soul", and if you have read my previous posts you would know I am a true believer to this. To have an "attractive" eyes, I believe eyelashes plays a very important role.

I've tried all means to have long, curly and thick lashes, from applying serum to using the best mascara that could create this effect. Recently, I was given the opportunity to have an eyelash extension experience at Pink Passion The Signature Salon at Aman Suria.

With the shocking pink exterior, it's very easy to spot the salon. Parking would probably be a problem during weekdays, but since I went on a Sunday late afternoon I had no issue getting one.

The interior is very feminine, They have used the colour pink in a very brilliant way, creating a cosy and welcoming ambiance at the salon. Pink Passion has been in the industry for more than 5 years. Apart from eyelash extension, they provide body and face treatments too, such as body massage, and facial.

I was led into the room with dimmed lighting and soothing music playing at the background. Although I wasn't nervous about the extension, but the lighting and music was very calming - and I really liked it  a lot. p/s: sorry for not taking the room's photo due to the dimmed lightings.

Before starting the procedure, I was given a choice to have a dramatic look or a natural; and I go for the latter. A piece of surgical tape will be placed just under the eyelid to separate the upper and lower lashes, and to prevent the glue from getting into the eyes. I did not feel any pain nor uncomfortable throughout the process, except the feeling of them trimming the false lashes. 

Once it's done, you'll have to wait for a bit for the glue to dry up. I was told the extension process would take about an hour, but I was done less than that. So..... how's the result?!!

At one point, beauty boxes used to bloom like mushrooms after the rain but it eventually dies off. Truth to be told, I jumped onto the bandwagon too but got pretty disappointed - the products were either useless to me or not worth the value (you'll see tons of samples that you could redeem from those beauty counter =_=||).

Due to my past experience, I did not have much expectations when I came across CubeCrate thinking it's just another beauty box. I realized how wrong I could have been when I opened my very first mysterious box from CubeCrate.

More people are switching to organic products, and not just on the food or drinks they consume. This because we are more health conscious and only want the best for us and our loved ones. Some might be skeptic about organic products, but 60% of what we applied onto the skill will be absorbed into our blood stream.

Having said so, it's better to use or consume organic products to avoid or reduce harmful chemicals going into our body system.


Today I'm going to talk about an organic product - Esmeria Organics. Esmeria Organics is one of the world's few ECOCERT certified organic hair and body care products that specifically targeted at sensitive skin and problem scalps.

Thanks to Esmeria, I've received some of the products to try out, and I would like to start off with their hair care range.

1. Soothing Shampoo for Dandruff Scalp

Lovely readers, today I'm going to talk about something very special - red wine!

We all know the benefits of consuming a glass of red wine a day. Unfortunately, some of us were either a super light-weight drinker or has issue with drinking alcohol due to health/religion. Luckily, all these worries can be solved by Nano Resvera.

Nano Resvera or Nano Red & Wine, is a premium product made of Pinot Noir grapes from the organic vineyards of Oregon, USA that is then flown to Japan for production. Using advanance Japanese distillation technology, the grapes were fermented as how they would be in producing red wine, BUT bypassing the alcoholic-production stage. 

Not only Nano Resvera is sugar-free, but this breakthrough product is also alcohol-free. The product has been tested in a lab in Singapore and the results shown the red wine to be both Methanol and Alcohol free. Therefore, making it certifiably Halal and to be enjoyed by all!
