2 Days 1 Night Staycation in Kuantan, Pahang: A Soulful Escape

  Sometimes, you just need to pack your bag, hop into your car, and drive away from the chaos. That’s exactly what I did. A not spontaneous 2D1N staycation to Kuantan, Pahang with my family. Just to fullfill my Dad's wish a getaway by the beach with all his family. My sisters and I planned it for him. Well, no really planned with rigid itinerary. Just not easy to get all 11 of us together at the same time and the same day. It was an open road journey, eat, sleep and eat again hahaha My role was just as someone who booked the room and make sure everyone get a good room with view. Halfway through the journey, we made a pit stop at the famous Go Bang Maju Patin Tempoyak, right by Tol Temerloh. This place is THE spot for Ikan Patin Masak Tempoyak, a Pahang specialty that locals swear by, recommended by my first sister. Now, let me confess! tempoyak is fermented durian, and while I don't really fancy durian in its majestic creamy glory, the fermented version? I will stay away from i...

My Knee, My Journey: Recovery After Arthroscopy & Living with Osteoarthritis

Mulberries in front of my house It’s been a while since I last updated you on my health journey. If you’ve been following along, you’ll know I went through knee arthroscopy a couple of months ago. And oh boy, what a ride it’s been! Not the kind of ride with scenic views and fresh air.....but more like a bumpy rollercoaster with unexpected twists, hormone hurricanes, and a stubborn knee that refuses to cooperate fully. The Knee Drama: Arthroscopy & Beyond Let me start by saying this....I survived! Cue dramatic music and confetti. The surgery itself was smooth, but the recovery? That’s a whole different story. For the past two months, I’ve been diligently attending physiotherapy three times a week. Yes, three times. That’s more commitment than I’ve ever given to a gym membership. Did I ever sign up for one before? The sessions were intense....think squats, stretches, and exercises that made me question my life choices. But my physiotherapist was a gem, always encouraging and never ju...

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...

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 ...
