BEAUTY TALK | MY SKINCARE (DRY SKIN)

July 6, 2017



I've been keeping this post since FOREVER! I'm so sorry for the delay as I was very busy with my job (double the business since it was almost Hari Raya), and my lovely cat, Chaemong, died on 2nd Hari Raya. 😭😞 I cried so much (and still am because I miss him TT~TT) but at least he's in peace now, because he was actually really sick.

Okay lets move on before I start to cry again HAHAHA

||  MY SKIN TYPE 

I have a very, very dry skin and trust me, I tried all sorts of products to make it normal. The feeling is like when you use mud/ clay mask and when it dries on your skin, you will feel your skin cracking every time you move your face, even just to talk. Really, that is exactly how it feels like! Uncomfortable, and it feels like your skin is going to crack anytimeee. noooo!

Another thing I hate about dry skin is that there's ALWAYS white flakes on your skin, which is the dried, peeled skin. I used to have them around my mouth. which makes me looks like a crazy & lazy fella- going to work without washing my face. Macam air liur basi but it wasn't! it was the skin =.=''



|| PRODUCTS I USE

Trust me I have been trying lots of products! But I tell you, please do NOT have your hands on the products that doesn't come with the KKM or the products that claim themselves to "show the results after 1 usage", "guna sekali terus cantik" bla bla bla, unless you are very sure of their whereabouts. And please do lots of research before trying the products especially if they are clinically tested, the ingredients. Think again, you are risking your face. Most important- google bad review about the products HAHA. This is the easiest you can do!

I will let you know products I use to give you a hint on what products you can try, and some tips I know. Of course, you need to experience few products in order to find the one that best suits your skin! 


from left : COSRX Whitehead power liquid, Royal Beauty Water ph11, Nature Republic Aloe Vera Emulsion & Toner, Physiogel cleanser



   PHYSIOGEL   

Physiogel Dermo-Cleanser

purchase now on HERMO to get the free wallet for purchase above RM 80.00~ 

Wanna know something? this actually is a body wash HAHAHA! i didn't know when i first bought this, but it's really good for dry & sensitive skin, just like what it claims. I only found out later after months of using it (and it was because I got the free samples which include pamphletes of Physiogel new products HAHA). But i don't really like the texture of the face wash because it was too moisturizing at the point it becomes almost oily. so I just stick with this cleanser. 

This cleanser is not the foam type, so don't waste your time rubbing them on your face, hoping it to produce foam because it won't. And, Foam type facial cleanser is not the best for Dry skin type. It will make your skin dryer. 




#HStips : buy a small bottle and just fill it up because pumping from the big bottle will cause you to overpump (since it was made for body, not face). #jombelajarberjimat hihi



   NATURE REPUBLIC   

Two green bottles in the middle - Emulsion & Toner

If you are suffering from dry skin, please, please DO NOT SKIP toner. Pat your skin with dry towel and directly put on toner. do NOT wait, since you just washed away the dirt, oils and moisture from our face so your face is really dry at that time. 

I love this toner because it is water-based and not thick. Just, don't skip toner. Okay? 😉

apply emulsion after the toner is absorbed on your skin and you're good to go! This is my everyday routine. Dry skin cannot skip okay! I just use these 2 (and COSRX afterwards) and no night cream. and it works! 

The best way to use toner is not to use so many of it in one go. Apply once. let the skin absorb the toner, and apply it again. You can repeat it as many times you want. No problemo~


Toner

#HStip : if you are using  water-based toner, just put it in a spray bottle and spray to your face. Using cotton pad is great but it will make lots of the products go to waste. I take off the label from the Toner bottle and paste on the spray bottle- which explain why the label on the bottle is so messy HAHA


   COSRX   


COSRX

I actually first found out about the product when I receive free samples from HERMO (I love you, HERMO!). I tried all samples, and I fast fast buy this Whitehead Power Liquid. lol. 

I really recommend this for those who have the "jerawat pasir" (help, idk what does it called in English HAHA). What I hate about the jerawat pasir is that they can stay really long UNDER your skin, as if it's not going to fade or what. I always hurt myself trying to poke the pimple out because it was annoying and deep under the skin but the bump is disturbing! And of course, I poke it until I bleed. ã… ~ã…  (please don't do that to your skin).

 Seriously this product is divine for people who want a healthier skin. It works great with dry skin as it contains Hyaluronic Acid which moisturizes my skin and I strongly recommend this one for you. 

you can try google the COSRX Whitehead Remover Review and there are lots and lots of detail review and tips. But it really worth the money. 

#HStip : after apply this Whitehead Remover, it is best to wait 30 minutes if before applying more products. 

Pros : what it does to your skin
Cons: The smell. i think its weird, but not bad. just, weird. haha!


   YADAH   

Oh My Sunblock

I got this sunblock for FREE from Hermo for their 5th Birthday Anniversary, and I LOVE IT! This is like, the best sunblock ever. It's not greasy, absorbs well, not sticky, and it moisturizes too! I also got the small sample of it and I gave it to my officemate. Yes, she loves it too! 

Best Thing about Yadah is the products are all natural. Seriously, I often skip Emulsion nowadays and just use the sunblock but my skin is getting healthier! no signs of it getting dryer. And good thing about the sunblock is it is white in color. No need to use the Tone Up cream to apply makeup. 



Bonus : face mask (got these for free from HERMO!)

Use face mask at least once a week to pamper your skin. For best result, use it everyday but we all know how much a mask sheet costs, right? So, once a week will do 😉




||  MY SKINCARE STEPS   

1. Spray PH 11 water from Royal Beauty Water (I got mine from instagram @waterbottle.my )
2. Cleanse my wet face with Physiogel cleanser (direct use cleanser after PH11, no need to wash off first)
3. Pat dry & spray toner.
4. Let the skin absorbs the toner & apply COSRX (night), or Yadah Sunblock (day).
5. For night time- put on emulsion after 30 mins. Day- apply cc cream & compact powder. Done!



Do not skip toner, drink LOTS of water, avoid smoking, and do NOT sleep with makeups on. You won't like what it will do to your skin. No matter how lazy you are, just dont!

VIRAL

June 9, 2017



We all know how easy to find delicious food nowadays, right? Yep, it all thanks to the "Viral" power. I remember back then, we seriously have to do some research (like, hell yes- research! hahaha) on where to eat when we went to somewhere we were not familiar about.

you know those so-called research like, calling your friends who have been to the certain places you wanna go JUST to ask, "eh there can eat where ah? tasty food got sell where ah over there?" (pardon my Manglish ✌️ )

But that's before. 

When the travel plan orders goes like :
1. Pick a place
2. Plan the budget, itinerary, etc.
3. where to eat? Start reasearch, cari balik shabat lama lol.

to this:
1. Places to eat (Pick what's viral to try and let's go there kinda thing)
2. Plan the budget, itinerary, etc.

there it goes, one less thing to do! All thanks to the "Viral" posts on the internet.

Sure a great thing, eh? 

I love how "Viral" food stalls, restaurants make our eating business easy (even though queuing up is hell because the line will surely be super long!), but some sellers are really upsetting.

You see, most of these viral places are not just beside our house, sometimes it's faaaarr away. Be it Negeri or Country. No, I'm not going to talk about countries now hahaha. maybe next time? watchout for the #HaniShubieTheGlobeTrotter. lol. 

There are few times that I was upset about the food served at some viral restaurants. And what's sad is when I went to some restaurants (yang baru viral) and tried their gorgeous food, and it was really tasty so I blog it, posted it on instagram, and few WEEKS later, people complain that the food served is not as tasty or as photogenic as the one I ate. and some even be like, "are you sure that's where you eat?". 

Wait, what?

Ni bukan gambar masa bulan puasa tau! hahahaha #SorryNotSorry 


To be honest, I am not paid to do any review on any post that is on this blog nor instagram (up to this date as I am not famous when I am writing this entry, lol). I write about what I experienced and what I ate since I want to share with you guys my experience & recommendations. That's all! 

I hope that those who is in the food industry, no matter just for a certain season, like bulan puasa jual kuih raya, bazar Ramadhan, or have your own restaurants for a living, please please please be honest and not take advantage of the "Viral" situations. Senang cakap, jangan lah sebelum viral, kuah pekat berisi sedap lemak, lepas viral kuah rasa macam letak kiub ayam sebab tak larat nak handle customer / alang-alang orang ramai so boleh kaut untung lebih dan tak ada isi penuh macam dulu. And, many people complaint about food sold at Bazar Ramadhan being recook, busuk, cair and stuffs. Please seller, what if you die die wanna eat something and people sell you that? would you be happy?  :( 

Because as a Customer, we will feel cheated by the Viral advertisement, and as a food hunter, people would not trust my taste anymore haha! 

p/s: I'm sorry for not posting any updates on where to ifTHOR sebab i belum jumpa foodhunting partner lagi lol.

Till Then,
Thank you for reading this entry!

MEE BESEN ORI MELAKA

February 7, 2017


Assalamualaikum. 


Sejujurnya, walaupon aku ni  selalu makan, aku tak pernah lagi tengok gambar Mee Besen ni. jadi masa adik aku cakap "Mee Besen", I was like, "Mee? Besen? oi ape tu?". Adik aku pon explain la yang mee besen ni sejenis mee sup, nama dia mee besen sebab dia hidang dalam bekas besar mcm besen (correct us if we're wrong). Aku : imejin makan mee dalam besen plastik warna pink yg jual kat kedai RM2.12 tu. 😅 unik jugaklah kan. kahkah. 


bukan besen plastik ya kawan-kawan


Mee besen!

Mee boleh pilih, sama ada korang nak mee kuning, mee halus, kuey teow, mee soya. kiorang pilih kueyteow. 


Masa kitorang datang tu time cuti CNY, mmg dah jangka akan ramai gila beratur tapi aku selaku driver (kuasa paling besar selepas ibu kah kah kah), berkeras nak beratur gak sebab alang-alang dah sampai Melaka. (sebenarnya aku malas nak cari tempat lain sebab jalan jem zzzz)


tak panjang, tak ramai pon.  hahaha *cries


Alhamdulillah, setelah beberapa minit (tipu) beratur, kami dapat meja gak. sadly, masa tu abang kedai kata tinggal mee besen je. Talam western dah habis. takpelah, sapu je, janji perut diisi. Tapi budak Aisyah cakap kat abang kedai, "kot-kot kalau tiba-tiba ada lebih yang talam western tu, abang bagitahu ya. Kami nak. Kalau tak ada takpe". 


sampai je mee besen, abang kedai berlari-larian datang (tipu lagi), "dik, ada lagi satu je talam tu extra. nak tak?". whoa! terus campak sudu mangkuk kecik mee besen sebab excited. Finally dapat merasa both mee besen n talam western. Nasib kitorang baik jugak tau, walhal 3-4 kali pusing sebab sesat padahal dah pakai Google Maps & Waze. Kalau lambat lagi, mesti dah melepas hehehe.


grilled chicken dia shedap, sherius. 


Okay, time for an honest review. 
Mee Besen: 4.0
Talam Western: 4.3
Price : Murah sebab portion memang besar. 
Layanan worker: 5.0


Mee besen dia sedap, cukup rasa, tp nak kata paling kill tu belum lagi tapi sedap. Talam western tu pulak pasta kureng sikit. Bukan tak sedap, cuma belum tahap umph lagi, fries takyah review laaaaa hahaha, grilled chicken sedap sangat (serius!), meatball pon gravy sedap (help, terliur semula TT~TT).

Layanan worker? Serius sangat friendly, sangat okay, paling aku suka sebab diorang selamba tapi bukan kurang ajar. masa beratur ada worker ni dtg n tanya nak makan apa. sbb nak kira cukup ke tak kan, smpai turn orang belakang2, tak cukup stok dah. ada jugak yang marah-marah abang tu tapi dia elok je senyum mintak maaf, n cakap yg worker lain pon tak makan lagi dari petang so harap sgt kitorang sabar. 

menu? nah!

Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart

November 24, 2016

Assalamualaikum.

Wahai hantu cheese tart semua, sila cuba makan Hokkaido baked cheese tart ini. 




Aku suka cheese tart, tapi biasa makan yang blueberry cheese tart & strawberry. Yang kosong-kosong ni sedap jugak tapi kalau ada blueberry macam lagi gempak kan. Hiks! 


Tapi partner aku- hantu cheese tart. So bila kitorang keluar tanpa hala tuju last week, nak pegi makan tapi semua kedai penuh. Yang aku paling heran ni, kedai Hokkaido Baked Cheese Tart ni. Jual cheese tart je pon, tapi orang yang beratur tu kan, fuuuh. Panjang. Melayu Cina India & kaum  yang tak dapat dikenalpasti pon ramai. Bakery lain pon macam nak isytihar perang cheese tart bila tiba-tiba ada kaunter kecik depan bakery yang letak cheese tart sahaja. Padahal banyak lagi roti-roti & kuih muih diorang. Saje je kan. Ada lagi kedai lain yang jual cheese tart, pakej siap sekali cheese cake. Tapi tak ada pulak beratur macam nak mintak sign Lee Min Ho. 


Tapi berbekalkan secebis ketabahan, dan sebab hidung dah kembang kempis kembang kempis sebab bau cheese tart ni menggoda gila, kitorang join beratur. Berbaloi!






 Oi, tutup mulut. air liur dah nak meleleh tu! 


And the best thing about the tarts, they can be eaten in many ways!
1. Room temperature
2. Chilled- Refreshing
3. Frozen- creamy like ice cream
4. Hot- reheat in oven at home.

I wonder who can be patient to make it frozen sedangkan kalau kat room temperature je laju orang makan. nak tunggu beku bukan 10 minit. Kalau kat kampung, bukak fridge je dah hilang adik-adik bantai sampai habis tak sempat sejuk pon. kehkehkeh~




Picture from : Facebook

Kat mana?
AEON Mall Tebrau City (New Wing Centre Court) Lot G118 Ground Floor.

Selamat mencuba! (dan selamat beratur! hiks!)

Faiza.Amer - Halal Korean Food

November 21, 2016

Assalamualaikum.


Aku selalu sangat mengidam makanan Korea, tapi tempat nak dapatkan halal korean food kat Malaysia ni limited sangat-sangat. Kalau dah ke Seoul Garden tu maknanya mengidam habis lah tu. Tapi seoul garden mana ada tteokbukki, Kimchi jiggae segala bagai kan.

Nak masak korean food ni pulak, bahan-bahan limited. Mana nak cari Gochujang (Korean Chili Paste) kalau tak ke supermarket. Tu pon bukan semua supermarket ada. Tapi kalau ada pon, tak ada logo Halal. Gigih juga aku mencari resipi Gochujang ni, tapi lagi complicated je nak ke kedai mencari bahan yang betul. Sini kan Malaysia, belacan banyak lah :')

Kadang-kadang tengah kerja, aku take 5 kejap bukak la facebook. Kemain korang ya share video masak-masak Korea. Pastu aku terjebak tengok semua sambil telan air liur, sampai nak take 5 jadi take 30 minit dah. Boom shakalaka betul.
