Need a boost? Try this rejuvenator for your skin?


I always in love with ~h2o+ Oasis Range of products. The forever best seller - Face Oasis Hydrating Treatment is always my favourite and had try the Shine Neautralising version which do not work very well on my skin.

Someone who noticed me with the large pore and dull complexion problems had recommend me the Oasis Oxygenating Rejuvenator to me. So since this is the member of Oasis Range, i do not mind to give it a try.

This is an nightcream that work while you are sleeping, the texture is so light that it absord by your skin in blink of eyes. And it's oil-free formula will not leave any after feeling on your skin, unlike all the conventional concept of night cream - heavy than day cream because of richer in ingredients.

Claims of pruduct - it accelerate cellular respiration by eliminating impurities that slow down cell metabolism, but it also improves moisture retention, reduces signs of aging and repairs free radical damage. By stimulating the protective barrier, it amplifies hydration production. Crithmum Maritumum, a marine botanical, supplies oxygen rich nourishment to refresh tired, dull complexions.

Main Ingredient - Sea Mineral Complex™, Liposome, Wakame, Sea Fennel, Sea Lettuce, Crithmum Maritumum, Algae Extract, Laminaria, Vitamin A, Vitamin E

Result on me - 1st day, i definitely notice that my skin look better in the 1st morning, pores are not as visible, less fine line caused by the dehydration at night and also the post acne spots seem to look lighter too.
- 14days, this definitely is a product for me to use as long as i can, my post acne spots are now less visible, not that this product can heal acne scars, but it actually accelerate the cell metabolism, so your skin can heal faster by itself. I am now officially stop using foundation during my wkend casual outing! :)



Tips from the expert: Use the ~h2o+ Moisture Lock Mask over this Oxgenating Rejuvenator for a even better result.

每個人都有需要被寬恕的事情

Things at work not looking very good since weeks ago, and I had finally make the decision of moving on and free myself from the cage, not just to explore new opportunities, but also to re evaluate my ultimate goals of life.

For a person like me, who put career as one of the very important part of my life, quitting a job can be really hurtful. As I spent more time at work with my colleagues than my partner (which i don't have one at the moment, so time allocated for partner went to work as well), my family (who stay far far away) and even my friends. I enjoy work, not just the pay cheque at the end of the month, but also the job satisfaction, you will taste the fruit of success at the end of the day, this was the main reason which been pushing me and keep me going all this while.

However, I still believe any relationship is a two way street, including work relationship. When things get too personal (nothing intimate I am referring to) such as comment and critic made baseless and also for the sake of attacking, no matter how much I love my job, I will still look for exist.

Just like, if your husband beaten you up when he was drunk and apologized after that and seek for forgiveness and say he was drunk and he was not aware, and this same stupid routine keep happening. Drunk is not an excuse, as a matured adult, we are required to hold responsibility of our own action.

I think enough is enough, I can’t ask for other to grow up, but I can choose my own path.

每個人都有需要被寬恕的事情. For all the unfair treatment I receive from you, I will take it as an experience and I will not hold it against anyone. Anger will not keep me moving, but only keep me busy pointless. I trust that I was arranged to go through this for a reason and is time for me to go.

Babor Derma Refiner - Spring Clean for your skin


For most of us, we follow a simple 1, 2, 3 steps as our skincare routine daily, a at home mask treatment once or twice a week, professional facial treatment once or twice a month. And sometimes you still wonder, why the products you been using seem like not doing their work as good as they used to be? and why are the little-but-annoyed post acne spots/ scars seem to take longer and longer time to fade off and pores are large enough to give yourself eyes sore?

It will be wonderful if we have the opportunity to change a new face but the truth is NO. But, a lot of people were trying some aggressive ways to mimic the process: rely on conventional peelings with aggressive usage of fruit acids to RENEW their skin.

Fruit acid peelings have to be used at extremely low pH values and intensity of exfoliation depends on the concentration of the acid, which means: the skin protective function will be stripped off and can be damaged as a result to stimulate the growth of new skin. And there are potential risks if the procedures are not done by qualified personnel.

So can skin renew be any safer and idiot proof? The answer is YES.

For you who witness how i been through the severe break out about year ago been asking me how I come this far where there is no trace of THE break out and the scars is minimal. My answer to you is Babor Derma Refiner.

I am a person who strongly against any abrasive or invasive treatment on my face as I believe in to grow old 'gracefully' with helps from quality product instead. So after thorough understanding of how this products work, I decided to give my skin 2nd opportunity to gain its smoothness back.

The active ingredient used in this range is Perfection Peptide P3, which has a much deeper action than traditional mechanical or biological peels. It accelerates the skin’s natural exfoliation mechanism in the uppermost layers of the epidermis by breaking the cell-to-cell contact between the corneocytes (the cells that form the stratum corneum, the uppermost layer of the skin) at the desmosomes (structures that join cells together), and thus imitates the skin’s natural exfoliation process. As the beauty of this product is to renew your skin inside out (pushing skincell from inside rather than strip off the skin cell from outside), this is a lot safer than using conventional way to renew your skin.
The clear advantage of DERMA REFINER is that it able to maintain the skin’s natural protective function and skin’s natural pH is not affected. The visible results for after two months of usage: a significantly improved complexion (smaller pores, scars is minimized), smoother and I feel that my skin absorb product more effectively now.


The DERMA REFINER range comes in a set consisting of three products and to be finished in two month time. As the first step, ENZYME CLEANSER is used to prepare skin for the treatment. This cleansing powder, which is enriched with vitamin C and enzymes, activates the skin’s regenerative mechanisms.

DERMA REFINER DAY CREAM is designed to be used after your daily cleansing regime. It contains allantoin, panthenol and vitamin E to condition the skin. In addition, UV filters protect the skin against the sun and other environmental influences.

Overnight, DERMA REFINER NIGHT CREAM develops its regenerative effect. It also contains an extract of the medicinal plant Spirea ulmaria (meadowsweet) which inhibits irritations, and valuable plant oils to support the skin’s natural protective function and also supply additional moisture.

For better result, you can opt for Derma Refiner Facial Treatment twice a week to boost the result. Due to my hectic schedule; I had my treatment only once a month.

For a person with sensitive skin like me, Babor Derma Refiner worked just as fine, I was reminded few times by the advisor not to be too harsh on my skin when using the Enzyme Cleanser, as the cleanser can help to exfoliate with its ingredients, not mechanically. During my two months treatment duration, I am not supposed to use any other skin care; I find that both the Day Cream and Night Cream are just enough to meet my daily need, but I still apply sun block if I need to go under the sun longer than usual because skin is now in the renewing process.

I am happy with the result of my 1st Derma Refiner and I will definitely make this part of my skin care routine, to renew m skin at least twice a year! Not just to regain the better tone or the smoothness, but to ensure that any skin care products I apply daily is effectively adsorb by skin and not wasted.

So, maybe is time for you to have a spring clean project?

一辈子的幸福

“XXX
有时候我们必须单身,单身久了我们以为自己爱上单身的生活,因为总是遇上不对的人所以我们更加严谨,我们不再相信直觉式的好感,从这样的好感中建立的可能性我们都试过了不是吗?因为我们以为自己承受不住再一次不能长久的爱情,我们不要开花了,这个可以跳过,我们可不可以只要一次结果?开花开到很累了。“

- 管启源, 摘自四月份CITTABELLA -

不得不承认对这段文字有多么的认同,我的爱情故事没有别人精彩,一次又一次重复着一样的程序,为的就是寻在那一个对的人。一次比一次认真,一次比一次投入,一次比一次更相信自己离幸福不远。在恋爱中的失败不曾让我气馁,为的是两个人下半辈子的幸福。

一直相信自己清楚了解自己要的是细水长流的爱情,所以从不留恋没有将来的游戏。遇见了他,经过漫漫六年的分离思念复合了解到确认双方是此生长相厮守的人后,男人却在重要日子前动摇并退缩,对着这个一起生活了六年的女人,连说要离开的勇气都没有,只敢收起所有的爱与关怀让无法忍受脱泥带水的我,自找个台阶,让大家下这个万丈高台。男人到底没有说清楚退缩的原因,只有不断的道歉。

分开的三个月后,前往那个拥有多少回忆的地方收拾时,意外发现衣柜早被人占据,那刺眼的热裤深深的烙在脑海。 耳边仍听到男人刚对我说分手后生活有多难熬,日子多不顺心,眼前却摆出了另一个事实。也许这是男人的天性,懂得把昨天在昨天放下,完全实施今日事,今日毕。伤透心的不是男人已把心付托在别人身上, 更不是六年的努力付诸流水,而是想不到自己竟然看不清这男人的心,更看不见那片隔开两人的海。或许一开始就是我一相情愿, 男人偶尔配合演出,无论如何,这已无法追究,不必追究。

当然,我并没有放弃自己,依然在努力寻找幸福,但方式已大大不同,即然多么周详的安排也不能确定明天的结局,哪我在执着些什么?今天的我在享受可呼吸空气的自由,期待开花结果的过程太累人,何不努力给自己一辈子的幸福?

Calmness, from the oven

Was thinking about taking up a baking skill for a while and today after my long day at office, I felt like I needed to swift away from my usual work for a while, before I swallowed by those negative charges again.

So after a simple preparation (open the box, read instruction, mix eggs, water and oil to the mixture :p ), I had finally pop the tray with thick chocolate mixture in the oven and wait start to wait patiently.

After at least like 25 stares to the oven, finaly, it start to look like this.



Although this cake is real simple to make, it taste rather normal (what else can you expect from a box? ), but this 60minutes of little exercise (i don't have a electronic mixer yet, so imagine my hard work :( ) managed to ease my stress a little. I wish I can find more tranquil through this new found hobby.

It don't look too bad right?

简单的感动


短短三天两夜的假期,想不到得到的是不断的惊喜。从怡保开始,就尝到了最简单的感动,一碗的清汤鸡丝河粉提醒了我不一定要有珍贵的食材才可以烹调出令人垂沿的美食。也许当中还参杂了地主的热情,所以感觉更温暖。

2009

Been a while since I last written down something here, new year come and go, CNY come and go, My birthday come and go, and now, the V day around the corner. Hard to believe, is this already the mid of 2nd month of the year!

Back in January, by some chance I met some people who offered me some suppose to be ‘life changing advice’, there are some complete against another and there are some is really reflecting what happened in my life. I took a while to think about those advices and then decided that, I will decide my own destiny.

I know is a little late for me to write my resolution for year 2009 now, but come on, is never too late if I have the heart to do it, right ?

So, first and foremost, year 2009 will be a year fill with cool and calmness, for me. Take things slow and steady will be my ultimate guild to survive throughout this year; I am not that young anymore, guess I better save my energy for something more productive!

Secondly, more charity, more charity, more charity. I managed to increase the number of trip to at orphanage end last year, just to do some donation. I am sure I able to contribute more than just in term of money (not much actually) and I believe that they deserve more. For year 2009, I will pay more attention to children who deserve love from the society and also better life.

Thirdly, Explore life. I been busy in life for a very long time and I always thought this is how life should be, until someone shows me how much I actually lost. I promised I will explore life outside this 10ft x 10ft space where I spend my 12hrs daily.

Last but not least, more books, at least 18books for year 2009. Managed to read around 15 books in year 2008, so there is no reason for me not to keep up to this amount and try to overachieve a little.

So year 2009, even if I already missed out a good 45days, but I believe I will make it up soon. Year 2009, I also expect to see a different in myself, less me and more others attitude.
