  This will be my first time trying out Syahirah brand skincare. The one in my hand here is Syahirah Korean Secrets White Glow Brightening Essence. I have tried many essences from different brands before this. So, I was a bit skeptical about whether this one is just the same as others or different. Hahaha...to me all essence is the same.  I always have 3 skin problems : * Uneven skin tone * Dark spot pigmentation * Dry skin If I end up using the wrong serum or essence my skin will become super dull and make me look unhealthy and so sad. aisshhh... So, I am quite selective to try out such skincare. Worst if it irritates my skin. People! do a patch test on the other part of your skin before jumping into applying any skincare to your face or you may end up looking like a beast if it doesn't suit your skin. Anyway, today I am going to write a post about my honest review of Syahirah Syahirah Korean Secrets White Glow Brightening Essence for you. When Syahirah Glow Essence reached m...

  Parenting is not just about teaching kids to behave and be good boys and girls. Being ambitious and having good dreams for a better future is important but a good sense of managing money or finances is equally important.  When it's time for them to make financial decisions for example savings, investment, and even dealings with basic daily life transactions, a good basic foundation and knowledge are essential. Believe it or not, there are sayings that only those who can do well in life can do well with money. There are a few ways to teach kids about money and how to take financial decisions : 1. Lead by example - Start getting your kids involved in grocery shopping and explain the comparison of goods prices and show them how to purchase the right one. 2. Earn the allowance - Educate your kids to earn the keeps. They will appreciate every penny they earned through chores or tasks given. 3. Savings Habit - Gift them a piggy bank or jar to teach them saving habits. This is to e...

  One big factor that we need to consider to add supplements to our daily life is dietary insufficiency. We may eat enough food but many of us neglected the importance of nutrients that are needed by our bodies. Dietary supplementation can be the answer to balancing essential nutrients. If given a choice, I would prefer to take natural supplements for my health maintenance.  Recently BiO-LiFE, one of Malaysia's leading healthcare companies of quality health products based on scientific testing, is introducing Herbalmeds. Herbalmeds offers natural products for those looking for natural, herbal solutions for their relief.

Everyday me   Mine supposed to be an online diary blog has become just a review blog, right? So sad! I have neglected this blog for quite some time now. There are many factors of this neglection behavior. (Gosh! trying to resonate again, huh?) My health isn't that good for me to sit down in front of my desktop to rant anything about my life here. Haih! the never-ending back pain. No matter what I tried, it still haunted my body. Every month, my life has been 2 weeks ok and 2 weeks not ok. This month, I feel a bit better than the previous month. Finally, can rant out here. I feel refreshed now. hahaha What I have been up to now? Well, the days of blog reviews have past their prime time. Most of the brands are looking to TikTok, IG reels, Lemon8, and all those short caption social media reviews rather than lengthy blog writing reviews. I have been doing product reviews on those platforms these days. TikTok is especially hot nowadays. I don't really have many followers but the ear...

  I celebrated my 48th birthday last week. An old friend visited for quick lunch. He said, I was living his dreams life. To be honest, I never planned to retire from work this early. My initial target is to retire at common age, 55 years old. Due to health reasons, I end up not working. Anyway, I was always prepared for my retirement days ever since I was in my early 30s. This means it took less than 20 years to save my hard earn money to ensure self-sufficient retirement days. I wish to start early, though!  How to plan for Sustainable Income during retirement days? For those who have some inheritance somewhere under your name, you are so blessed in life. But many of us have to start from 'zero', and lots of sacrifices. The average life expectancy is 75 years old. Since I adopted prudent life habits, so I usually calculated until 85 years old. Anyway, we never know when will be the time for us to drop dead, right? If you are to retire at the age of 55 years old, then you need...

    Hydration is most important and essential in maintaining healthy skin. A hydrated complexion looks more plump, healthy, and youthful looking. Having an adequately hydrated face will help to improve skin elasticity which will reduce the appearance of wrinkles. Additionally, hydrated skin also helps to combat oiliness. Dehydrated skin produces more oil because it is compensating for a lack of moisture. Dehydrated skin is also less resilient to environmental irritants. When your skin is fully hydrated, it is able to fight and flush out toxins more effectively because your cells are getting the maximum amount of hydration that they need to function at their best.   The best ingredient for hydration is Hyaluronic acid (HA), as it is natural, has a high viscosity, and is water-retaining. It retains water just like a sponge, to achieve the efficient water-locking effect. It is often used as a base for skin care.   Since the launch of Hada Labo in Japan in 200...
