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!

Posh! Nail Spa @TTDI

My nails needed some major treatment. My cuticles were dry and my toenails and cracked heels were just too... uhmm (too embarassed to say! *wink*). This definitely called for a manicure and pedicure session at the nearest nail spa. No need Bangsar, no need One Utama or The Curve though these places are near too, Im thankful to live in an area where awesome nail spas are just around the corner! I chose to get my treatment at Posh! Nail Spa in TTDI, in the morning at 11am and on a weekday. Weeehoooo. Why weekday? Because I quit my job, that's why. We'll story that in another post? :) Anyway, this was my second trip to Posh! because the last time I was here, which was about a year ago, I had a great service and my nails were well done. I was greeted by a sweet lady who smiled and opened the door for me. AAhhhh..what a great way to start your morning, isn't it? Really people, a smile makes a big difference to someone's day! I love the entrance! It's like a mi...

Review: L'erbolario Eye Cream

Hi everyone! It's been awhile since the last I did review on beauty products. I've always had problems with my underye. It's always dry, and when I put on concealer to cover the dark circles and eyebags, it will get flaky at the end of the day. I tried countless of eye treatment products but still no changes. I asked a makeup expert if it's the way I put on concealer that it's not right or what? She said it's my super dry undereyes. Even when she touched my undereye, she said she could feel that it's really dry. So one day, I stumbled upon a cosmetic store from Italy called L'erbolario in One Utama. I was told that this brand has been in Malaysia many years ago but their first outlet is in Bangsar Village and OU is the latest branch. Got consulted by the sales assistant there, and she gave me some eye cream samples to try out for 2 weeks to see if it worked for me. It's amazing how the people here don't try to sell you things, so they give you ...

Koji Dolly Wink Workshop with Bloggers

Salam and hello everyone! Sorry I know I've been missing for awhile..was pretty busy with sister's wedding events, family gatherings, etc. But hey I'm back and I want to share with you this super kawaiii beauty workshop with bloggers which I attended earlier this month. Thanks so much to The Butterfly Project for extending the invitation to me! If you're familiar with asian makeup brands, I'm sure you have heard of Koji that produced Dolly Wink! Yes, that brand that only focuses to 'wow' our eyes! The workshop was conducted in a private area at Little Pantry in IOI Mall. My first impression when I stepped into the workshop "Omg. I want to wake up every morning with my room looking like this and all these kawaii makeup around me!!!" . Everything was colourful and girly, which I love! I'm a sucker for cute packaging so let's see some pics. Here's a brief story on Koji. Koji is one of Japan's leading makeup brand, fam...
