5 Simple Tips for Great Skin


Who says that you need to spend a lot of money to get great skin?
Just follow these 5 simple steps and you'll see the difference in your skin...

1. Always remove your make up
Clean skin will be able to breathe and regenerate itself when you sleep at night, thus, it is very important that you remove your make up before you sleep. Leaving eye make up such as mascara and eye liner can also lead to serious eye infections. Mascara will also clog eyelash follicles that will eventually lead to breakage and shedding. Leaving make up on your skin will clog your pores making them look big, and also cause breakouts more frequently. The effect from leaving makeup on your face overnight can clog your pores and cause you to experience breakouts more frequently.

2. Wash your face twice a Day
Washing your face will remove impurities and oil from your skin. When you sleep at night, dust, dirt and bacteria may accumulate on your skin, thus, you should always wash your face in the morning when you wake up. Clean skin will regenerate itself at night, and cleansing will prepare your skin for other treatment products, allowing your skin to better absorb the cream and essence and deliver better results. 

3. Exfoliate once a week
Exfoliation refers to the removal of the dead skin cells on the skin’s surface. As we age, the process of cell regeneration slows down, thus, old skin cells will pile up on the skin's surface, making your skin look dry and dull. The build up of dead skin cells can also result in clogged pores, leading to breakouts and acne. Exfoliation will unclog your pores making way for other treatment products to better penetrate into your skin. In short, exfoliation will give you clearer and fairer skin in a single step.

4. Moisturised your Skin
Pollution, poor diets, stress will make your skin dry over time, and the only way to deliver moisture back to your skin is to apply moisturiser everyday. Applying a good moisturiser before make up also serves as a good primer.

5. Protect your skin from the sun
The number one way to prevent skin ageing, wrinkling, dark spots and pigmentations is to apply sunscreen everyday, be it indoor or outdoor. Choose a good sunscreen that is non oily and with a minimum of SPF 50 PA+++.

Mummy And Baby: Hospital Checklist

It is never too early to prepare your bags for delivery. You wouldn't want to run around the house packing your bag after your water bag burst. It is good to make sure your hospital bag is ready at least 2 weeks before your EDD, or even earlier. And it must be place somewhere where it is easy to access in case of emergency. Make sure your family members, siblings and husband know where the bag is, so in case you really forgot, they can help you to bring over to the hospital. So what should we pack in the bag? I will list them out in 4 different parts. 1. Documentation  For Admission:  1. Mother's IC 2. Admission Form For Baby's Birth Registration 1. Mother's IC 2. Father's IC 3.

Career Switch @ Age 35

If you have went through this, you will know how I feel.... Career switch at age 35 seems like a risk... I have been in the restaurant line for the longest time already, and I spend the last 11 years in my previous company working hard to achieve who I am today. And poof, it's all gone now!!! What is the reason for this career switch and why? It is all because I AM A MOTHER! For the past year, I realize that I am always tired, I got no time to see my baby at all! She's still sleeping when I go to work, and she would have already fall asleep when I reach home! On my rest day, all I wanted is to sleep as I am so tired. I've grown fatter than before, putting on so much weight, I could only hear my parents telling me Baby Joy starts to crawl, she's calling 'Ah Ma', but I never get to see all her first time! I thought to myself, it's time to change! I need to be there for my girl, be part of her childhood, be there whenever she needs me! And the next thing I know...

Niku Kappo by Watabi

It's been a long time since Mr Wonderful and I have a date. Glad to spend some private time together for dinner without Baby Joy! It was a surprise dinner date (3 weeks ago) as he just SMS me the venue 5 minutes before I off work.  When I reach the restaurant, there was a big crowd outside, waiting for tables. Mr Wonderful got 2 seats at the Sushi Counter which is our favorite whenever we dine at a  Japanese Restaurant.   There's a welcome drink for everybody. Never got to know what drink is that as the servers are always busy. We had a hard time trying to get their attention as everyone is attending to tables. There were a lot of table services such as tossing salad and cooking Sukiyaki by the table side.   My welcome drink   Quite nice, a little minty. The chilli padi looks scary, but you don't taste that at all... Wagyu Toro Sushi $7.90 I am not a fan of raw beef, so I've got nothing much to saw about this. But the beef literally 'melts' in my mouth, so make ...
