Sukin Night Cream



Okay.. I'm ecstatic about this wonderful brand...
I love the purifying mask so much.. I dont mind going through the mask ritual daily ..I try .. very very hard to do it every other day... :D


After getting that glamorous glow after the masque .. I en route myself to Vitahealth Pharmacy to get their Moisture Restoring Night Cream 

1st day - I got up the next day with a glowing skin 
2nd day - A even more glowing skin + acne scar fading 1x
3rd day - Glow remains + no more dry skin (tight feeling even without moisturiser) + scar faded 2x
4th day - all of the above + a more happier me + one small pimple (it could have been worst) 
5th day onwards - I am yet to discover the miracle of this product and I'm very optimistic

Just like the purifying mask.. The moisture restoring night cream does not contain harmful ingredients and comes with a whole load of skin loving oils and substances

Below is the list of ingredient
Aqua, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Sesamum Indicum (Sesame) Seed Oil , Cetearyl Alcohol (and) Ceteareth-20, Glycerin, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil (Rose Hip), Theobroma Cacao (Cocoa) Butter, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Simmondsia Chinensis (Jojoba) Seed Oil, Tocopherol (Vitamin E), Persea Gratissima (Avocado) Oil, Triticum Vulgare (Wheat) Germ Oil, Oenothera Biennis (Evening Primrose) Oil, Borago Officinalis (Borage) Seed Oil, Equisetum Arvense Extract (Horsetail), Arctium Lappa Extract (Burdock), Urtica Dioica Extract (Nettle), Phenoxyethanol, Benzyl Alcohol, Citrus Tangerina (Tangerine) Peel Oil, Citrus Nobilis (Mandarin Orange) Peel Oil, Lavandula Angustifolia (Lavender) Oil, Vanilla Planifolia Extract, Citrus Paradisi Extract (Grapefruit Seed), Linalool,* Limonene.*

S H O C K E D ! Paying with debit card has a price

I needed some cash... so as usual I went to my humble money spurting machine ( it starts giving you less as the month ends :D) and as usual with the tit tit tit tidit tit... and when I saw my balance

I WAS SHOCKED

Panicking....My mind when about searching my memory box... and my inner soul screaming at my impulsive spending disorder... I was like... hey.. I didnt spend that much at all...  an astonishing level of RM400 was missing from my account ... (thinking..thinking..panicking..) .. so i tit tit tit tidit again... to check my transactions .. and it shows somehow on the 21st I have made some transaction twice amounting RM200 each...
but I didnt even buy anything... I'm on saving mode.... :(
so ... what happened...

Whatever that may be.. Maybank has a cool customer service... They have thus far not let me down yet.. so I made a quick call .. explained my situation in my utterly calm yet drama queen tone.. and after some questions and answers....

The sweet CS exec asked...

Did you pour petrol by swipping your debit card at any petrol station .. i.e Shell or Petronas...!!!!!!

ok I blinked for a moment there.. and went.. yea.. I did.. twice on Sunday (21st)

and thats when the truth came

It seems petrol station take a pre-authorised debit of rm200 each time your pour petrol via swipping at the pump machine... so twice is rm400
and this only happens at either Shell or Petronas..
and after a few working days.. the money will be credited into your account after deducting the amount poured...

So I was adviced - to pay at the counter / swipe at the counter rather then the machine...

Well a relieve it was... but no matter what I am still RM400 shorter for a few days.. sobs....

Climbing Stairs to Loose Weight.....

C a n  I  do I t ? ? Well here I am now looking almost like this
 and I hate it...

So to rectify the problem.. I am beginning to climb stair - 17th floors ( 1/2/3 times a day will do  I think....

However, Yanti told me that climbing stairs bulk up your thighs - so.... after googling up.. I came up with this wonderful article that proves my theory right O

http://health.msn.com/fitness/articlepage.aspx?cp-documentid=100241429

So , I am going to climb stairs till I get my desired output  :D



The Bean Soup

Today was a public holiday; the muslim's are celebrating their Eid (Haj)
Well.. I wanna loose weight so.. as usual.. I don my black khol kajal.. and set out to make soup
It was suppose to be a red bean soup but I ended up adding all the different beans, rice and almonds.
It turned out quite delicious since the Panasonic Cooker that Vino bought for me has a special feature for slow cooking - and wallah!!! after 6 hours of slow cook... the beans (mung beans, kidney beans, orange and yellow lentils) , almonds, peanuts and rice mix came out delish .. yum!

Seriously, the panasonic electronic cooker is one the best things to own ( its cooks rice to perfection) and also porridge, slow cook and cakes even. All thanks to Vino ( the best house warming gift ever) hehehehehe...

Now I shall go ahead and enjoy a bowl of my BEAN SOUP

Today in History

For a long time... I guess maybe since 2007 I've been trying to blog.. many a times..
and for all the while... my intentions had never been somewhat sincere, which I have realised.. to myself...
To come to think of it... after 3 years off blog years maturity... lols... here I am finally realising.. its best to blog about something about what I truly am all about...

The transitions were from all influences around me - ranging from blog titles such a Health In Trend ( Gaga.. Gugu .. were more like it .. to recently.. during my adventurous quest in search of food & glory ( food! YES!!! ... Glory... slump... and what the hell was I thinking - Beauty Junkie.. me???? oh god....

so.. here it goes.. no more being someone I am not...

Its all going to be Black Khol Kajal... something which has been a part of my life.. my body .. my soul... since I have been born...
