First seen it on My Women Stuff, I was intrigued by it already. How could a balm possibly help me sleep better?

Finally, when I reached a point of insomnia, I knew it was the high time for me to get it already! I even had sleeping pills from doctor, but one pill was enough to knock an elephant down for the whole day. Feeling drowsy and groggy until the next day wasn’t fun.

After some search, I found in a shop called Safe and Sound in 1-Utama.

badger sleep balm

You see how I love the Badger Sleep Balm ? It is in my heart every night!  Even the tin itself is adorable already *heart*

badger sleep balm content

Upon opening the tin, you will see this yellow wax lying in it.

I can’t exactly describe how it smells, according to the description – it is lavender and bergamot.

In fact when you sniff harder, you won’t find it anything fragrant at all.

I rub it on: my temple, underneath my nose, my pulse point and behind my ears.

After a while, I can feel it starting to work. I feel unusually calm and I have the urge just to lie down and rest…

Weee it’s been more than a month, and I have of course finished my 30-day course of BRAND’S InnerShine Quince Essence!

So. How did it really fare? Did it deliver what it has promised to?

Me, who is a big fan of plum, have this very often. But, i also find that the wax on the fruit is rather disturbing.

fruit1

See? On the left is the before, and on the right I have one that has been de-waxed.

fruit2

Just use a knife to scrap the wax, and inspect your knife. Now, this is scary right?

So, do you de-wax your apple or whatever fruit that you eat with the skin on?  I wonder what happens when we have too much wax in our body…maybe our body can be preserved for years? Together with all the chemicals I have in my body, I think my body will not decompose so soon..when I say byebye to this world.

If you have a partner who snores, or you yourself, I believe most of us would try anything just to relieve the annoying condition.

24-Breathe Right Packs

Have you seen this around in pharmacies?

My bf, has always had some nasal congestion hence leaving mouth half open to breathe during sleep at night. And hence, snores when he sleeps. And he picked up himself a box of this Breathe Right Nasal Strip from the Guardian to try out. 4 strips retail at RM5+.

So, I put him to an experiment to see if this thing works!

How does it work?

Hello ladies,

I hope all of you girls are healthy and kicking. I have been having sore throat for 4 days in a row (this is the 4th day) and my voice still sounds like a quack-quack. And then flu, cough all started kicking in.

Sigh. I hope to get well soon then can get out shopping and eating like a mad cow!!!

Till then.

Stay healthy!

brands innershine berry essence

As I have written about Brands Inner Shine Prune Essence quite some time ago, I finally bought this Brands InnerShine Berry Essence as well. Oh well, I am despo due to the pimples.

As drawn on the box, berry essence is for morning and prune essence is for night. Somehow the check box on the packaging looks like sanitary pad types to me – day and night use. Don’t you think so?

For the taste, berry tastes as good as prunes. I try not to drink more than 3 bottles a day! 62ml just doesn’t seem enough for one shot. I have finished these 6 bottles now, honestly, I can’t feel any difference right now. I probably need to drink more for a longer time? Since now Watsons is selling 2 boxes of Brands Inner Shine Prune Essence for RM34, I will probably buy that to try out for another 2 weeks to justify.

This package is good for trial before you decide to go choose berry or prune essence, and it is only RM19.80 at Watsons.
