How I remove makeup on my hypoallergenic/sensitive skin

So, I think it would be better to have you watch a video to calm you before I show you those horrible pictures of acne nightmare. It is a simply guide on how I usually remove make up on my face since I mentioned earlier that I do put on some make up occasionally.

I hope you enjoy watching and get to learn some non-professional tips from me

and

stay tuned for those horrible photos! lol wth



The product used as shown in the video is my personal pick with no any collaborations with the brand at all. Results may vary from everyone but I would say it is quite suitable for those whose skins are allergic to alcohol.

Why I never shared beauty topic?

Hi all my readers!
As stated from the title of this post, I am sure some of you would be curious and even popped out such similar question on your visits to my blog.
And I even had a feedback from my supportive friend asking me why my blog mainly consists on humble review series on food and itinerary sharing as he is not interested on food hunting actually LOL

Tell me,who do not like to stay beautiful and look good right? Even the men nowadays are also particular in maintaining their image and outlook too!

Sadly, things are not always going through as we wish.
Alright, to be honest, the main reason why I never published beauty-related posts on my blog before is due to my skin problem.

I'm not just literally hypoallergenic or normally called 'sensitive skin' patient as you would think of. Plus, hormone imbalance occurs throughout these yearssssss (no joke, it's since puberty)

The last serious breakout I suffered was earlier this year where my life was like totally dull and I had to wear on medical face mask whenever I was out from home or hostel. I wore it to lecture class daily and even to Bangkok (no choice, I couldn't afford to burn the flight ticket).
I was even asked to take down the face mask by the immigration officer at the airport, oh no, I nearly shed tears at the public place!

I cried a lot a lot whenever I was alone and also on everytime I applied the treatment cream on my face, what I viewed from the mirror was simply scary.

I am diagnosed to have a slight symptoms of rosacea, a skin disease that normally the patient's skin looks rosy and blush on either cheeks, nose area or chin area. This is a common disease in western countries where the fair skin people own the higher probability to be diagnosed. Hence, my cheeks would sometimes look blush or rosy or worse, super serious rosy that would scare anyone.
That is why I really don't like to see people simply claim themselves to have sensitive skin. Hey, please have a proper consultation with the doctor and go for some treatment whereby my condition is that there is no permanent solution to cure it.

Majority of the rosacea patients are allergic to alcohol, heat, spiciness, fragrance and more. So, I'm super particular in putting the cream on my face, checking ingredients on the label is my first task to do. I even ask doctor a lot of questions and look thoroughly on the skin care he prescribe for me. I might sound fussy to you, but I couldn't afford and don't want to get things goes wrong on my face anymore.

Suffering from skin problems simply means less or even zero make up. Thus, I don't practise that, but I'm still a lady after all, I do, occasionally put on simple make up, nothing more than eyeliner and eyebrow, that's all. Face part? No way.

My current skin condition is already stable ( at least no ultimate serious breakout), just that staying away from heat and avoid spicy food are my all time responsibility in order to have my cheeks calm and soothed. My current skin care routine are all prescribed from doctor and to be frank, I just want to take good care on my food intake and daily activities for the sake of leaving my face healthy.

More posts regarding this will be up, stay tuned.

PS: Dare to see some ugly picture of it? HAHA

#PPAP

Please don't give me a face palm over the innocent trend of this toxifying song, haha!
I was, at first, doubted and even puzzled at the song, the lyric does not make sense though.

However, a great imitating performing continues after the release of the song from Piko Taro, a senior Japanese artist. His face expression is simply cool, I can't even imitate so much close to his, to be honest.

Alright, I'm in the train to make a cover of this song, too.

Being barefaced and pyjamas on, it's going to a hostel-look version of #PPAP.

I hope you enjoy watching it, thank you!


心情日记:纯粹抒发 2.0

我从没想过会有这系列第二波的诞生。

这夜晚,我显得特别敏感脆弱。莫名的失落并非一下子就涌上来的,一定是我不知觉中把它一点一滴累积到现在。

我知道如果我不找个方法抒发出来,我一定会更难受。
与其打扰友人关于这些个人问题,倒不如我就当做是向自己诉说吧。
当然,我也很清楚了解,如果我连自己都不帮自己,后果除了今晚睡不好之外,也等于浪费了我的时间。

浴室是我很喜爱的角落之一。
它是我在洗澡时尽情高歌很多很多首的旺地,同时也是我把自己沉淀下来的地方。
我的灵感,领悟还有很多的想法大多数都是从浴室那边而来的。

就这几天吧,我想。
突然间,来了很神速的想法: 我觉得自己很渺小,什么都不是

近期浏览了一些文章,日志,刊物及学者的作品,打从心里很佩服他们。我知道这是他们努力的成果,很棒呢。最欣赏出版自己的日志的贡献者了。还是学生的我觉得自己在学术里很渺小呢。
过去的三个星期,我应征了两个实习面试。这真的是一个崭新的体会。试想想,一位菜鸟到公司去面试,面对的是总裁。抛下来的问题很是挑战,面试中他的语气更是让我亲身体验到我们常在电视剧出现的类似场景。这也让我领悟到自己原来什么都不是。

那我到底是什么?
毕业后,伴随我十八年的身份——学生也随之离去。
成人以往常常给我的告诫及提醒,我现在开始一步步亲生体验着。在进入工作生涯后,那会是更加沉重的领悟。
况且,工作生涯是条不归路啊。
我不是富二代,不可不打工维持日后生计。
所以啊,令我印象深刻就是总裁抛下一句,‘我们只要投资于最正当的人’
这句并非贬义,可是这一句真的在我脑袋停留至今。
因此,我也开始不断问自己,‘我凭着什么让人觉得我是最适合于投资的人力之一?’

我并非学术佼佼者。
是不是这也反映了我的学习能力呢?

我也知道,自己的应变还有适应能力也不及他人。
那这样是不是很快就会被社会淘汰呢?

或者这么说吧:为了生存,我竭尽能力好让自己还有机会入流。我深信,地球不是围绕着我运行。我不做,它也会自行运行。
说不辛苦是骗人的,可这就是生活吧。
有时候事情不由得你说不喜欢或不适合,你就逃避啊。

大家都说,人生是一场学习。
但愿在我持续学习及慢慢摸索当中,能够拥有更高一层的领悟从而知道我自己是谁吧。

真的舒服些了,明天就完成作业去。睡醒来又继续 慢慢前进吧。

Hello Senior Welcome Junior 2016

It's a new semester to enroll!

New intake occurs each semester including my course, too! There are a number of new intake (Chinese) for Business Mathematics course programme and we continue the tradition of making a dinner gathering with the juniors, at least to 'showcase' the old and new faces to each others.

To be honest, this is my second time (out of four) in attending this. Dropping out the two in between total four times are not on-purpose as I ( as well my coursemates) had own schedule to run that hardly to adjust for the gathering, so sorry anyway. Anyhow, it always feels good to meet the juniors, chit chat and had a great dinner time with them.


I appreciate to have one of the handmade bookmarks that the juniors prepared for us, each of them is labelled with our names. It's the heart that counts, thank you very much for the effort!!!




Here's a short video to summarize the gathering last Thursday, enjoy!

VLOG 03 - What super seniors do on the add-drop week

Time flies, being the final year students, we are now the so called SUPER SENIORS in the campus!
Add-drop week is the first week of lecture that occurs in every semester, which most of the students see it as a bonus week, I suppose! It is the only lecture week that is rather stress-free, as the adjustment for timetable are available to make it throughout the week.

In other words, add-drop week simply means ice-breaking time with less lecture session in the class. The lecturer and students get to know each other and also engaged on some class rules. This is the last add-drop week for us so we these super seniors wouldn't want to miss it out, hence bonding time!

The vlog as attached following simply sums up our activities on that week and the most exciting part would be karaoke session! I never knew most of them are karaoke junkies, haha!
Enjoy the video and feel free to leave your comments or suggestions for any improvements, too!

Showing off can never be annoying anymore.

As the saying goes, the better you feel about yourself, the less you need to show off. To me, showing off/bragging is one's psychological desire to be recognized or even looked up by friends and the community. Name a significant one, photo sharing. However, time is money. Everything goes quick and efficient, internet savvy users are now commonly updating photos instantly via smart phones. But occasionally we would be annoyed to see our feed are spammed by photos, photos, endless thread of photos! It is indeed easy to share the happiness with friends online but there are still certainly some people who prefer to have hard copies that we are able to view it even when WIFI is out of service, like me.

Sharing the memorable times of your life journey is absolutely great and now you could show them off in a rather new way than on social media platforms, plus, annoying no more to your friends!

Beside updating my photos via social media platforms, I could also do it in another way to be kept by myself, be it A7 size photo or button badge.
From left to right (and bottom):
(i)  My first visit to i-City Shah Alam
(ii)  My first hair dying experience of ash matte blonde with a touch of green
(iii) My first visit to Anjung Indah at Balik Pulau, Penang
(iv)  The moment I'd overcame my fear to carry a furkid

Give 60 seconds to finish and you are ready to show off!

These are parts of my significant memories I've gained and I really love that it is in hard-copied as I could keep inside my purse and able to see it at anytime, anywhere.
Curious where do I get it? Aha, make sure you read till the end as discount code will be given!

从此,我更加确定自己是个城市爱好者。

我发誓,经过这次的经历后,我只能说自己只有少许喜欢大自然的新鲜空气及气息,因为最终我还是一位城市爱好者。

话说我在槟城土生土长,但是这却是我的第一次乘坐缆车上升旗山去。大马公民的缆车来回票价为每位10令吉而四至六岁的小孩票价则是3令吉。值得让我开心一提的是,乐龄人士及学生票价则是每人5令吉 (记得出示大马卡还有学生证!)

缆车服务不错呢,约十五分钟就抵挡山顶了。

先让大家看看升旗山清新幽静的风景吧

 我直呼,这里真的是槟城吗?!






碰巧雨停不久,因此山上气息真是超冷爽的。与城市的对比下,升旗山可以算是槟城的世外桃源吧!这样的温度已经是超赞的啦。


这里真的不是我们平时联想到槟城的场景。
虽然这里没有炒果条,但是再强调一次,升旗山的温度已经狠狠地打败了山下酷热的空气。


我很开心终于有机会到访了但别误会这帖子的标题,因为重点来了。

其实我上升旗山去除了避暑一下,也想到山上的一家咖啡馆去。岂料,我不怎么享受整个过程,所以说我更加确定自己是个城市爱好者。
这家咖啡馆名为 Kopi Hutan 我想指的应该就是丛林中叹一杯咖啡吧,我想它也是槟城位于最高处的咖啡馆吧,海拔高达730米呢!

我和友人们选择不乘坐高球车因为不想多花费而且沿路到咖啡馆可以走走看看也是一种不错的体验呢。把爱情锁作为地标的话,我们前往那里的一道小路走去,本来说4km还可以吧,大家走走笑笑很快就到达。友人还说可以趁机捕捉宝可梦精灵,但是讯号都没了要怎样捕捉啊?

Hungry Mable is angry Mable,我的肚子在半途中已经咕咕作响了,唯有忍耐直到抵达目的地。由于我们没先前开始计算步行了多少所以要不是Kopi Hutan 的员工看我们傻傻一直向前走去,告诉我们这里已经是尽头,Kopi Hutan就是这边的话,我的天,我想我会崩溃!

因此,以下几张照片是我们倒退走回去拍的。


 记住,看到这个招牌就表示你已经到达目的地了。
Kopi Hutan 是 Monkey Cup 的 一份子
想要看猪笼草或接触蝎子的话,不妨到 Monkey Cup去探险吧。


我坚持要拍张照留念因为这样才不枉费及辜负我咕咕作响的肚子 呵呵


 步入大门口,就会有服务员前来招待了。


老实说,单是看照片的话我想大家都很喜欢。你看理石桌椅还有绿意的环境很是怡人。



但是当我看见桌后却是一片丛林时,我们有点惊吓的,不过是在还可以接受的范围内

直到。。。


这场景!

这。。

未免。。有些。。太亲近大自然了吧
有着疯狂无厘头脑袋的我们就很害怕万一一不小心有什么意外发生。
看看理石椅子后面是什么呢,还是怕怕的。
况且雨停不久,桌椅面上都是雨水,地面也是潮湿的,树叶上残留的雨水也不时滴下来。我们已经开始不厌烦了。。。

热情的工作人员不忘告诉我们要顾好手提袋,因为猴子会不时出现在我们面前!
够力了,我在宿舍几乎每天都被这些仁兄们吓坏了,
难道暑假离开宿舍,来这边也要这样吗?

他还说,也会有小鸟会飞下来和你共享咖啡 (晕)


 我们确实开始有点反感了,但是还是忍耐着因为吃货们都优先肚子的啊。
看看这小植物,很是特别。食物就摆放在玻璃间隔上,值得称赞的一个心思。

我们要求坐在有屋顶遮盖的座位,心里确实比较安心些坦白说。
唉,要怪就怪我们多眼了些。
友人不经意的看见一窝蚂蚁正慢慢游玩在距离我们只有两步的点餐柜台,真的确实两步!
我们已经起了鸡皮疙瘩啦!!

基本上我们都无法专心享受我们的食物,因此我们就只有点一些充饥而已。


招牌咖啡
RM 8 (一人份)
这古董的咖啡壶还蛮吸睛的 呵呵
 冷冷的天气,叹着温热的咖啡的确很棒。

 还有一杯就是热可可 (RM 8)
我们都一致不喜欢热可可的味道。奶味偏厚些,
而可可的味道并不是我们常喝到那种浓郁的可可味

在员工的极力推荐之下,我们也点了Chocolate Mousse Cake (巧克力慕斯口味蛋糕)
RM 12 一片
口味是勉强接受啦,不过口感就感觉怪怪的。
不懂是什么缘故,上半层的对我们而言就是不妥。

场内唯一大家都会欣赏的就是 木薯片啦 (RM 2 一份)
这就不多说了,零食谁不爱啊

因为那蚂蚁的缘故,我们也尽快吃完食物就准备离开了。
Kopi Hutan 有提供免费载送服务于Kopi Hutan 的顾客到爱情锁热景区

正当上车不久,又再下雨了。
还蛮感激这载送服务的要不然在山上雨中漫步四公里会是个噩梦。

总结来说,这样的新体会是不错的,我们可以步行四公里但是却接受不了那么真实的大自然饮食环境。特别是目睹了蚂蚁仁兄们的游行还有惨被蚊子叮咬后,我更加确定自己确实比较居住于城市。
