Can Melatonin Supplements Treat Insomnia?

Whenever some Chaebol in Kdrama is having a sleepless night, they swallowed some pills like swallow candy. When feeling nervous or panic, they swallow some pills too. So easy to get those pills prescriptions, huh? Do they just buy all those from the shelf or their Doc just prescribes as they wish? Seriously, those thoughts keep coming to me for years!!!!  I went to the GP and asked to prescribe me for a sleeping pill. Of course, my GP doesn't easily prescribe me with one bottle like I imagine can place on my side cabinet by the bed. The max I could obtain was only 2 tablets. Stingy!! Not that I am asking it for free. I am willing to pay. But the GP won't give up! They asked me to change my lifestyle habits. I wonder what kind of lifestyle I have been living that makes me having such a sleepless night. I was dying to sleep at least 2 hours without waking up. But I couldn't. My mind seems to be very active with many thoughts. Not like I am a chaebol or a CEO in ...

[Travelogue Guilin, China] Don't Miss Out West Street at Night in Yangshuo

After back from exploring Ancient Town, Xingping , I get some 30 minutes rest before head out to grab some dinner and explore West Street at night. I only have one night at Yangshuo before continuing my journey to Longsheng the next day. For those who took a Li River Cruise day trip may have a chance to explore West Street at day time for around one hour. But I was told its more happening at night. That's the reason I booked a room to overnight here. Pavillion opposite place I stayed. Can see the beautiful Li River view from here West Street is less than 5 minutes walking distance from the place I stayed. Seriously, this place is super convenient. Check my earlier post if you want to book this place. But before I walked over to West Street for quick dinner, I took the opportunity to enjoy the view of Li River after sunset. It's low tide during this time. So I manage to walk down and take a quick stroll along the river. Some local will find the river sna...

[Travelogue Guilin, China] Lost at Xingping Ancient Town

Where to stay in Yangshuo? Yangshuo River View Hotel. Address: No. 25 Binjiang Road, Yangshuo County, China I chose this place mainly because of the location . The location kind of away from the busy street. Just less 5 minutes walking distance from the Yangshuo Pier , its so convenient if you choose the route I took which is 4 hours Li River Cruise. Less 5 minutes to famous walking street, The West Street, Yangshuo . Li River just right opposite the hotel . Since I only have one night so the distance to all of this is very important. I don't want to waste my time and budget for transportation all the time. I missed out the river view room. So, I got the mountain view instead of that. Anyway, I kind of love my room. So cosy and they even have a small verandah for me to enjoy 'Pu Er' tea and the complimentary fruit plate they gave me. One complaint, no lift . My room on the 4th floor. I was like....more staircase? The hotel in Guilin City has ...

Honest Review: Sunplay Skin Aqua Hyaluronic Acid Serum UV

  When I first picked up the Sunplay Skin Aqua Hyaluronic Acid Serum UV , the sleek blue bottle already gave me that “hydrating luxury” vibe. Unlike the usual heavy sunscreens or sticky sunblocks, this one feels more like a skincare serum than a typical sunscreen. That’s the first big difference ! It’s marketed as a serum UV , not just a sunblock. Texture & Application The texture is lightweight, almost watery-gel like, and it spreads effortlessly across the skin. No greasy residue, no sticky film, and most importantly.....  no white cast . This is a huge win for those of us who hate looking like a ghost after applying sunscreen. It absorbs quickly, leaving the skin feeling supple and hydrated, almost like you’ve just applied a hydrating essence. This is where it stands out! It doesn’t just sit on top of your skin to block UV rays, it actually locks in hydration thanks to the 3 types of Hyaluronic Acid (HA, Absorbent HA, Nano HA). Think of it as a sunscreen that doubles ...

Cosmoderm Luminous A Retinol Review

In general, most people are advised to start using retinol in their mid-20s. Why do we need retinol for our skin? Well, this is because collagen and elastin production starts to slow down. Adding retinol into our skincare routine at age of 25 to 30 is the perfect time to slow down the ageing process. So, what is retinol that people are hyping about? In short, retinol is a topical product containing a vitamin A derivative. Technically speaking a type of retinoid which works to increase collagen production. It helps to treat acne, and blackheads and is also ideal to improve skincare texture such as minimising fine lines, and wrinkles and brightening dull skin. Personally, I am a beginner in adding Retinol into my skincare routine. At the age of 47 years old. I guess, am afraid to start one because I read many side effects if use it wrong.  What is the side effect if you use retinol wrong?  Retinols can increase your skin's sensitivity to sunlight. So, it is advisable to apply th...
