Breast Cancer Awareness Campaign with MURAD


One day I was doing self-examination and I felt a lump (like a size of a marble) at the edge of my right breast. I was panicked... I was contemplating if I should go see the doctor or no. I ignored it for the next few days..and the lump was still there. Oh no.. I was even more worried! I decided to see a breast specialist to get it checked..did my ultrasound etc. It turned out to be an infected cyst that didn't interfere my breast tissue, but just the skin layer, and it was NOT cancerous. Alhamdulillah...ya Allah. She gave me antibiotics and the swelling started to fade slowly. The doctor said it was good that I came early or else it could have been something else which may be more serious, and may affect my breast tissue. And there have been cases where cysts are cancerous. Starting from that day, I've been more conscious about my breasts, and I have been doing self examinations more frequent now, besides eating healthily and working out. Please ladies (and gentleman!), if you feel something is not right with your breasts, go get it checked. tak rugi pun! Prevention is better than cure.

It's Pink October, which means it's the month of breast cancer awareness campaign. This cause is so dear to me because I have lost many aunts and grandaunts to breast cancer. Let's all support this cause and spread the awareness on breast cancer. There will be free breast examination!

See you at MURAD in Empire Shopping Gallery this Thursday at 3pm!

A whole new journey

Salam and hello everyone! *knock knock* Anyone still around? If you are, you're awesome! If you're new, welcome to my blog! A place where I share my thoughts on beauty discoveries, places I go jalan-jalan, events I attended.. and many more! A LOT has happened throughout the years..I was caught up with work, I was busy chasing money,  getting married, changing jobs, going through some health issues..and oh remember lockdown? Yeah that pretty much took away a couple of years... so I kinda lost touch with this page and to be honest, I miss it so much! So I told myself the other day, I want to write again. About a lot of things.. not just reviews but also personal thoughts, feelings, observations etc. I've always loved pouring my heart out through writing, and I hope to make this as my comfort space. I hope it will be for you too 😊  It will also be a place where I share my journey of self-love and self-care. Being in my 30s, sometimes I tend to neglect the important bits for m...

Samporna Sari Beauty & Spa @Kota Damansara

Im all for traditional spas, specifically South East Asian ones like Thai, Balinese, Malay, etc. You won't see me going in slimming centres and such like all those SUPER expensive ones that just want to sell their products, no-oh. I was browsing Groupon one day and found a head to toe spa package for a cheap price, only RM 64 instead of RM 204 for 2 hours and 15 minutes and location (Kota Damansara)  was the plus point! I didn't hestitate to click the Buy Now button. Location is the first thing I look for in Groupon. I will only take the ones near TTDI like Bandar Utama, Damansara, Bangsar, Kelana Jaya. haha. What about you? Does location matter to you when purchasing a Groupon? :) So I booked my session on one fine morning and left 45 minutes prior, though my house is like 10 minutes away because I wasn't sure of the location, not so pro with the KD shoplots. I was looking for their signage "Samporna Sari Beauty & Spa". The spa is located at The Strand,...

Review: Hair Depot @ Jalan Telawi 5, Bangsar

Salam and hola all!  Hair?? Ahhhhh..it's either we are blessed with awesome hair or the opposite. Either way, taking care of hair is very important because it affects first impression, hygiene, and your overall look. If you have nice skin, like to put on awesome makeup but never bother to give extra attention to your hair, then there's no point! It's time to stop neglecting your hair and you may find all your needs at Hair Depot located on Jalan Telawi 5, Bangsar.  Last month, bloggers from The Butterfly Project were invited for a gathering at Hair Depot.
