It's been a month I didn't post anything. Ahh I miss blogging!

This story should be posted on early January but y'all know I like to 'peram' my post under draft section. Lol!

Awal tahun haritu Fatin ada tanya apa plan untuk new year ni. Are planning to go somewhere? But no, we  decided to stay at Kluang je sebab cuti pun sehari je. 

It was Fatin's idea ya untuk celebrate new year main ATV & Paintball.

Ahhhh best sangat! I wish I could turn back the time and repeat!

Our first night we had BBQ with Fatin's family. Then I left Aidil at Fatin's home sebab dia dah penat sangat. We all girls semua ikut Fatin pergi bandar jalan-jalan.

Next morning, we had our breakfast prepared by Fatin's mom, Puan Masnah (Masnah ke tuuu) :P
We had our Nasi Lemak Telur Goyang. Sedap gila ok!

RAF POINT : 1st Activity - Paintball

I didn't join them for this activity due to not feeling well. So I just watched them. Dah macam main PUBG in real life. Lol! I bet they really had fun despite all the pain and bruises.

RAF POINT : 2nd Activity - ATV

This time I insist to join them because at first I thought the road is easy. Snap! I was wrong. The road is extreme but I think I would regret if I didn't join them. It was fun! Looooooong journey and it's worth every penny!

RAF POINT : 3rd Activity - Tour de Kg Lukut (Trolley Ride)

Can't remember how much we had to pay for these activities. Probably around RM150 per person if I'm not mistaken.

Definitely will go again to Raf Point and might want to try other activities like wall climbing, zip line, abseiling, and many more!

Primer is very important before you apply any makeup. It's part of the foundation portion of the makeup process. It helps you to set your foundation and other makeup last longer. It can either make your skin glow, matte or just plain look but definitely better than before. 

So, I've decided to share my review on this Essence's new spray primer which called Prime + Studio HD Hydra Primer Spray with Coconut Water.

I bought this primer spray few days before Aidilfitri. Nak pergi Mac tak sempat dah sebab suntuk sangat masa. Since Watson have up to 50% off before raya, I just bought whatever I want to try.

Hello people! It's been awhile I didn't post anything. I'm too lazy to type and quite busy for this past few months. Plus, I don't have laptop with me at the moment. Abah borrowed my laptop since his laptop punya keypad terkopak sana sini. I rarely use mine, so bagi je lah guna dulu.

I miss sharing stories with all of you. So today I'll write a review regarding this Moreo Facial Cleansing device.

Bought this Moreo Facial Cleansing device with Alia, one of Moreo agents. I put her IG link so that it will be easier for you to know more about this product.

 I opt for cash on delivery because I don't like to wait so long especially during this MCO period. And of course no shipping fee! 

Honestly I didn't know that Moreo is one of the Miniso products and actually available at their store.

Sebab jarang masuk Miniso pun ya. Hahaha.

This facial cleansing device is soooo good! Like seriously. It works on my skin. I think its's a dupe for Foreo Luna. 

I know not all of us can afford to buy the Foreo Luna that cost you around RM700-RM900.

Luna Play Plus pun around RM200 something. 

So, I've decided to try Moreo since my sister dah beli Foreo Luna Play Plus. Boleh la buat comparison between these two products kan?

I punya warna pink. Actually I nak warna purple tapi dah sold out. A week after that, I've decided to buy for Mama and Alyea. Rezeki diorang dapat warna hijau dengan purple tu. Uwuuu T_T

Okay, let's go through this product.

Pro:

- Budget friendly; only cost you RM59! (But after this MCO the price will be RM69. The price still affordable)

- Extra: Available in 5 cute colours; Mint/Pink/Blue/Purple/Green

- Exfoliate dead skin cells

- Unclog pores

- Remove dirt

- Enhance the absorption of skincare products

- Make skin visibly brighter and healthier

- Can be used by any skin type

- Can be used as facial massage

- 3 sizes of bristles on the device (Finest bristles for sensitive areas, second finest area for the T-zone and hard to reach spots and the biggest bristles for oily parts)

Cons:

- No settings to control the intensity of the vibrations

- Does not have a timer to control the duration of use

Overall, for me it's worth to try if you're looking for a good cleansing device with affordable price.

 

Hola hola people! 

Do you know what's the difference between CC Cream and BB Cream? No?

Okay, let me share with you something.

BB Cream:

BB Cream is a short for "Beauty Balm" or "Blemish Balm". It is makeup formulated with skin care benefits which can range from sun protection to hydration to shine control. Depending on the BB creams formula you use. BB creams are available for all different skin types including oily skin and dry skin.

BB Creams generally offer sheerer coverage than foundation which basically a great option when you want a little bit of coverage without looking overdone.

Wait. You might confused with tinted moisturizer, did you?

Tinted moisturizers are literally moisturizers that offer a tiny hint of coverage but BB creams go beyond that by offering skin care benefits!

Please bare in mind that BB creams are not meant to provide lots of coverage as a foundation would which is to cover imperfections. It is a skin-first product which meant to hydrate, illuminate, mattify, or achieve whatever other skin care goal you may have.

If after applying BB cream but you still feel the need for a little more coverage, you can layer it with concealer. 

CC Cream:

CC Cream usually stands for "Colour Correcting" cream or "Complexion Corrector" cream. It provides a little more coverage to disguise imperfections like dark spots or redness. They tend to have thicker and heavier formulas. CC cream is often formulated for aging skin that may need more coverage to help smooth the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.

Since now you know what's the difference, so let me share with you some of the brands that offer BB creams and CC creams.

Please do more research on what best for your skin. I just stated few products here for your general knowledge or info. Currently I'm trying out the Silky Girl Magic BB Cream. I'll give my review on this product later.

Do you know that cleanser is important?
Regular cleansing is essential to keep your skin look radiant and healthy.
It helps anti-aging products and treatments work properly. If you have pores, cleansing helps to maintain proper pore size.

Hydration? Yes, cleansing encourages proper skin hydration and prevents the production of excess oils.

Penting ya cuci muka setiap malam sebelum tidur. You need to remove anything that you applied on your face, tak kira lah sunblock ke apa. Especially if you wear makeup. Please lah cuci muka dan jangan tidur dengan makeup masih ada. Tak sayang kulit? Do you know that cleanse skin every night can remove impurities, dead skin cells and excess oil.

A morning cleansing is also important as it removes any toxins and refreshes the skin. But please don't over cleanse your face. Only cleanse twice a day.

You might think that washing your face is like grab any cleanser and go, right?
Not exactly.

It's better to find one that works best for your particular skin type with ingredients that are good for your skin rather than harsh and drying. When your skin has just one problem such as excess oil production or dry patches, it's easy to figure out which products work best for you. But when you have both oily and dry skin which is combination skin, that's when things get challenging.

Remember, not all cleansers will work for your combination skin because you need a sophisticated balance. Some cleanser might over-moisturize your oily parts and other might not be strong enough to hydrate and smooth your dry parts, which ends up causing more problems instead of solving them.



Cleansing is always the first step to any basic skin care routine.
 Good cleanser must be:
- gentle
- fragrance and irritant free
- won't leave skin feeling sticky or dry after rinsing

Okay, now let's talk about what cleanser is suitable based on your skin type.

1) Light foaming cleanser
