Browsing in Tips, Guides

A friend of mine recently complained to me that she has back acne problems, and asked me if I have any solutions to it. I have some products in mind but I shall investigate further before I post them here.

I have a few tips that I think should be deemed useful for back acne :

1. Keep your body clean, shower regularly, at least twice a day.
2. Wear cooling clothes such as singlet, or loose T-shirt, tight-fitting shirt is bad actually, it will irritate our skin because our back tends to sweat more. And you wouldn’t want your sweat to be trapped in there and causing clogged pores.
3. Choose cotton shirt if you have a choice, avoid nylon or polyster material. cotton is known to be dissipate heat better.
4. Use shower products with tea tree oil substance. T-tree has been used to combat all sorts of acne problems.

Backacne could be a real pain in the back especially for a sexy back.

However, the real reasons of back acne still remain unknown. Stay tuned more updates!

Today is my second day at the Yoga, I always knew that it is beneficial to go yoga, but, I have never really taken the time to find out more about the course. I have been busy trying to find a goal in life and trying to settle down with work and all. And, I just realised that, there is a lot more apart from work and blog.

Ever since I started to pay more attention to my blogs, I have neglected quite some old friends. Mainly also because all of us are working now, it is hard to find a time to get together especially if all of us stay separately far. Sometimes, I even forget to reply an SMS or a call! Only a few days later I realized. This is quite a usual problem to me. When I do something first and put another aside, I forget all about the first mission. Is it just me? Or it is a common problem.

Well, love life more! =)

Mascara Guard packet

Some days ago, I saw this Mascara Guard in a Sasa brouchures, so, I decided to check it out at the store, it is retailing at RM19.90. I was like, “Oh man, I wouldn’t pay RM20 for this piece of plastic! It’s too overpriced!”, so, I just forget about it.

Then, I went to Sg Wang Plaza to survey a little, indeed, I bought this at only RM5!!! Although it is still overpriced, but compared to RM19.90 in Sasa, it is much cheaper and worth trying out.

Mascara Guard stick

This mascara guard is designed to guard your eye lid when you are applying mascara so they don’t get stained by your mascara. It is curvy so you can press it against your lids. It is fun indeed. You will do a clean job of applying mascara, no more stain elsewhere!

But, here is the problem. If you apply charcoal type or pencil type of eye liner, the mascara guard might smudge your make up, or even eye shadow. This is a problem for short lashes, after you curl it, you will have to press the guard closely to your lid to get a nice job done. Unless you have very long lashes, then you can hold it further from your eyelid.

So, good or bad? You decide. I would say it’s a 5-5 thing, but, looking at its price of RM5, I think it is worth the fun.

Knowing today is the member day, I woke up really early and reached Mid Valley at 7am. Even as early as 7am, the crowd was crazy and it was even hard to find parking.

Immediately, I wasted no time and went to redeem those that I made reservations last night. Phew, thank god I tried them all last night so today I wasted no time trying and choosing. All I did was grab, paid, and run off. Everything was moving so fast, except for the Q! I had to Q for about 20 mins just to pay.

Although it was a crazy morning, but I think it’s all worth it!

Dear everyone, especially the ladies:

It’s J Card Member Day! I didn’t know about it till I was in Jusco today and saw the signs everywhere.

And, the lingerie is going REAL cheap! XIXILI, Sloggi, Triumph, Sorella, are ALL SO CHEAP! Most of the Sloggi are 50% of RM50/RM80 for 2 bras, for the panties, 3 G-strings/3 regular panties at RM30 only! I made some reservations on Sloggi bras and panties, going to collect it early in the morning tomorrow. They open at as early as 7am!

Omg i can’t hold my excitement, it’s time to restock now! Save our purse for more more more more more!

blade

When it comes to clearing the bushes around our brows, I believe most of us will use a twitzer to plug our brows. Although it is more careful and safe, but it hurts!

Therefore, I think the best solution is usign a blade. Here, I am not talking about the long plastic handle with small blade, here, I am recommeding this, the short yet long blade.

No doubt, it is as sharp as it looks and it is enough to kill you if you slit your wrist, but DO NOT DO IT! Well, in fact, this is easier and faster to clear the stray hair around your brow, as long as you hold it the right way and do it gently, you will not hurt yourself. Becareful about your nails though, keep your nails short, your long finger nails will be cut by the blade when you hold it.

As long as you do it right, you will fall in love with this like I do! This is less commonly sold at the outlets, but, if you buy it at beauty expo, it only costs RM10 for a box of 10, cheap indeed.
