10.10 Shopee Haul. - Baking Utensils

Sunday, October 13, 2019 0 Comments

Hi guys!

Last time was a 10.10 big sale on shopee and lazada. But I only ordered from shopee. So I took the opportunity to buy some cheap and affordable kitchen utensils, mainly to make cake. I don't know why I love making a cake now, so I need some equipment like a piping bag and nozzles. 

The shipping was free of course, one favourite thing that I love shopping on Shopee. Since it's still on the way here, I'll show you the things that I ordered.


I wanna make my own pasta so I really need this baking mat. So yeah, mostly about baking utensils. I'll show you the goods once I received it. It's from oversea so it takes a really long time. Almost over 2 weeks now. I hope my springform pan is not dented hah. Gonna do a review soon too.

I also will do a review on my waffle pan in the near future so stay tuned! I also probably gonna make a video on how to use it, on the stovetop.

My experience - Dengue Fever.

Monday, January 21, 2019 0 Comments


 It's been a while since the last time I update this blog haha. Happy new year guys! Hope your new year filled with happiness!


Okay, so last month I had a terrifying fever experience, which is Dengue fever. Man, I don't even want to experience that ever again.

At first, my sister was the one who had a fever, thank god the fever is not that bad like I read from the internet, mostly they said about dengue fever is scary and I just really hope that she didn't die or something.

Definition of Dengue fever :


Dengue fever is a mosquito-borne tropical disease caused by the dengue virus. Symptoms typically begin three to fourteen days after infection. This may include a high fever, headache, vomiting, muscle and joint pains, and a characteristic skin rash.



skin rash on hand.

How dangerous is Dengue fever?


If the patient develops severe dengue, there will be bleeding spots on the skin and other parts of the body and leakage of blood plasma. Severe dengue fever can damage the lungs, liver or heart. Blood pressure can drop to dangerous levels, causing shock and, in some cases, death.


The Horror...


After 7 days, she noticed rashes on the arms, legs, and torso with redness. That's when she went to see a doctor and the doctor confirmed that she has the dengue. Since her dengue is not that bad, no leakage of blood plasma or something, she just drank a lot of guava juice, barley drink, water, crab soup, and of course the fever medicine. The doctor said to go to the clinic to check on the blood whether the platelet increase or not. if the platelet didn't increase she has to stay at the hospital. It can be dangerous if the platelet didn't increase.


I got this from the hospital.

In my case, my fever was, of course, it's on and off, seriously annoying because when I took my meds I thought that I'm well already but it didn't! I didn't vomit or can't wake up at all, it's just my tummy hurt after I ate and took my medicine. I need to take Gaviscon (gastric medicine) first. I also had diarrhoea.  

And so from 1st January until 7th January, I have to take my meds, drank guava juice, ate crab soup ( I wanna cry because of the smell ), drank a lot of water, ate meat, drank lots of oral rehydration salts drink and so on. My hands and feet started to feel itchy and I cried. But after two days finally the itchiness and fever were gone and Alhamdulillah I'm still alive.

Review on Garnier Aqua Defense Essense

Tuesday, October 23, 2018 0 Comments


This is a review about The Garnier Aqua Defense Essense. It's not a paid review ya I just want to share with you guys the pros and cons of this product. I bought this moisturizer a long time ago and I still have it like a little residue left but I don't want to use it anymore because I have a better moisturizer.



The Garnier Aqua Defense Essense comes in a light green gel form in a tub. The tub is big and cute.


So here is what Garnier says about the moisturizer :


Daily stress and pollution can dehydrate your skin and cause it look dull and dry. Garnier new upgraded Aqua Defense non-stop intensive hydrating essence, enriched with Mountain Spring Water -- helps enhance skin's natural water retention ability; anti-oxidant white tea & green tea extract -- helps protect skin from external aggressions, giving you a smooth and soft complexion.

Direction for use :


Use it every morning and evening, apply on perfectly cleanse face and neck.

Ingredients :


Aqua/water, glycerin, alcohol, dimethicone, isononyl isononanoate, vitis vinifera extract/grape fruit water, carbomer, calcium gluconate, camellia sinensis leaf extract, dimethiconol, sodium citrate, sodium hydroxide, actinidia chinensis water/kiwi fruit water, magnesium gluconate, ascorbyl glucoside, caprylyl glycol, tetrasodium EDTA, biosaccheride gum-1, xanthan gum, menthoxypropanediol, tocopheryl acetate, phenoxyethanol, chlorphenesin, CI 19140, CI 42090, linalool, hydroxyisohexyl 3-cyclohexene caeboxaldehyde, butylphenyl methylpropional, benzyl alcohol, benzyl salicylate, parfum.


After I tried the moisturizer ..

This moisturizer has a minty feeling and makes me feels like there is alcohol on it, makes my face feel so weird and it kinda stings a bit though.

When you look at the ingredient, it has an alcohol, maybe that's why my face stings when I applied the moisturizer.

I have a dry skin so it doesn't really help on hydrating my skin that much. But it's so-so lah. I read on the review and someone said that "it can sting when you first apply it, but the gel absorbs so quickly that the stinging doesn't last and after using it for a few days your skin should be so well moisturized that you'll no longer get the stinging anyway." 

Sighs I just wish that worked on me but sadly it doesn't.

It may be worked on anyone else, who knows? It depends on the person and the skin type.

So here's the verdict :

Pros:

i) It doesn't break me out.

ii) It's cheap and affordable. You can get it at Watson or Guardian.

Cons:

i) The gel texture gives a refreshing feeling, but it doesn't keep my face moisturised for the entire day. After 4-5 hours, my face feels greasy.

ii) The moisturizer irritates my skin.

iii) The smell can be a little bit strong.

The Garnier Aqua Defense is available at local pharmacies and it's not that hard to find. That's all I guess. Thank you so much for reading this haha

Stay beautiful, ladies.
