The Best Cool Therapy for Pain Relief

Recently, I was in pain on my left knee (the one which I got surgery on early February this year). I am used to leading my life actively so...I was really forgetful to be extra careful about it. If you read my blog post before this, I wrote on my experience Glamping at Tiarasa Escapes Resort , Janda Baik. I did jog around the resort and carried some heavy stuff around. My Doctor has warned me to not put any pressure or weight on my knee since its already exhausted. Regretfully, I was overexcited during the trip and end up did something which leads to my condition right now. YES! I am back to the time right after the surgery. I am now on crouches and the pain on the left knee kind of killing me. I took some medication but still, it doesn't help much to relieve my pain. So, in my case, I applied pain reliever cream. I know many will take pain relief cream light because you think this is just a temporary. For someone who doesn't ever experience pain may think this way. Bu...

Glamping Experience at Tiarasa Escapes Resort , Janda Baik Pahang

Recently, I have an opportunity to experience Glamping for the first time in my life. It was more of a short family vacation with two sisters and my parent. We drove all the way from KL to Janda Baik, Pahang. We reached there around 3pm on Friday. We chose a weekday to avoid the havoc weekend crowd.  Tiarasa Escapes Resort is the luxury tented accommodation spread across 7 acres surrounded with beautiful lush green rainforest and small streams. You can find many dragonflies here. That shows the non-polluted environment. The brainchild of this amazing place is non-other than Puan Sri Tiara Jacquelina who is just like me a big fan of Enid Blyton 's Faraway Tree and Secret Seven series. I would say this place is more like a great city life escapes place. She gets her inspiration from her stayed in Berber tent at Sir Richard Branson's Kasbah Tamadot in Morocco.  This is the lounge near the reception area. The Pua Kumbu motive print spread and Iban styled handicra...

How To DIY Scented Candle using Beewax

My first-time candle making was during one of the beauty workshops, I attended a few years back. It was so much fun but as usual time constraint during this kind of workshop. So, I don't get to enjoy it longer. They taught us to meltdown the soy wax, then mix it with essential oil and decorate with some dried flowers back then. I always wanted to try out bee wax candles making. I bought the bee wax last year. Finally, I have the courage to meltdown one on my own. I was a bit sceptical with my own ability to DIY this. hahaha... I gave this a shot, anyway! I have nothing to lose if this didn't work out. Oppssss...maybe some bee wax, my precious essential oil and time. muahahaha... I don't really use any exact measurements. Everything just as what I feel right🤭. Step 1 💮 Melt bee wax pellets. I used a double boiler as if melting chocolate.😝 Step 2 💮 Take out from the heat after all the wax 100% melt. Wait for 3 seconds. Step 3 💮 Mix with some Virgin ...

Why Skin Hydration is Important?

Hydrate! hydrate! that's the word the beautician keep telling me during my visit to facial treatment before MCO. At that point my thinking always..."I drink plenty of water what? What's the problem?" Well, the beautician obviously were talking about my skin hydration. As the ageing process, it is natural for our skin to lose up some of the essential nutrition just like our body too. Dehydrated skin occurs when there's a lack of water in the skin. Not like you can feed your skin with water, right?  How the dehydrated skin looks like? Well, the dehydrated skin usually looks dull and show premature signs of ageing such as wrinkles and loss of elasticity. You can easily tell on the dehydrated skin if you notice some of the symptoms below : * More sensitive fine lines and wrinkles start to appear * You skin feel itchy * Dull skin  * Dark under-eye circles or your eyes always look tired and sunken. Still unable to tell? You can do the simp...

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...
