Having healthy and glowing skin is something that every woman dreams daily for because healthy skin especially facial skin, reflects the beauty of the person and I'm speaking entirely about one's physicality. Healthy skin is a reflection of one's internal health. Should a person has healthy skin from head to toe, it considers that her or his internal body is also healthy. Furthermore, having healthy skin partly defines one's beauty and let's face reality here - people will acknowledge should one have healthy and glowing skin.

Three Simple Tips For Improving Skin Health


Being someone who suffers from skin problems for the longest time possible, it's very hard for me to find the effective ways to improve my skin health. I am suffering from mild eczema which causes my skin to itch when I'm stressed and sometimes my skin, which includes my back, arm and hips to get dry and start flaking. Aside from Coconut Oil to keep my skin constantly moist, I found three simple ways to help improve my skin health and after much reading and researching, it seems to be an effective yet simple way to assist those with skin issues especially dry skin issues.

If I Was A Rich Girl...



I'm starting to enjoy doing this post as I like to believe that this kind of post could help people like me, those who wish they could afford something big but in reality, they couldn't but refuse to dwell in misery that we are just slightly unfortunate. Anyways, again with my obsession for Lauren Conrad, I am truly in love with LC Lauren Conrad for Kohl's Amore Handle Tote Bag in Mellow Rose.

BUT I"M NOT RICH, SO...

I found the substitute version from Charles & Keith, Heart Handle Sling Bag, which is a lot more affordable to my wallet. Although, I have to admit, it is not as cute as LC's version but what else can an unrich girl could do.

Hello June - A New Month, A Productive Month


Since the beginning of the year, the entire world has been exposed to a new practice in their respective way of living as the Covid-19 Pandemic spread. Personally, since in Malaysia we had to endure about more than 2 months of Movement Control Order (MCO), our version of lock-down or quarantine, I am not sure if it has helped me to be more productive or more slacking. However, many have tried a few new things to help ease their boredom. Some even opted for a change in their lifestyle while others look for more creative ways to earn and sustain their earnings. The question bears vaguely in the back of my head, will such productivity sustain once the lock-down is lifted and life goes back to normal, that is the new normal?

The Duck Is Back At It Again


During this time, the situation around the world is difficult. The Covid-19 Pandemic has got almost the entire world sitting on quarantine, or as I prefer to put since in Malaysia we don't call it quarantine, Movement Control Order (MCO). It seems in these difficult times that we are starting to see the dark sides of many people we have not seen before. Most recent news in Malaysia - The dUCk Scarves Co-founder, Vivy Yusof, has found herself and her brand under hot waters again. And this time, it's not about her comments.

5214 Wishes For UNB's ONADO Trip


Me being a fan of K-pop, is not a secret. Me being a fan of UNB, is also not a secret. Me falling in love and currently is in love with Japan, that too is not a secret.Me being a fan of travelling, of course that is not a secret. Who hates travelling? But let me share a little secret. Or should I say, let me share my certain wish that involves UNB, travelling and Japan.

If I Was A Rich Girl...

 

Cue Gwen Stefani's song. Now if I was a rich girl, considering how obsessed I am with Lauren Conrad and Kristin Cavallari and also how much I keep up with their brands, I would probably get myself Uncommon James' Unita Wooden Bowl.

BUT I'M NOT RICH SO...


I decided to get myself a cheaper version which is not only affordable but also within the borders of Malaysia. I might actually consider getting this as I am currently in a salad mood. 

P/S : This is not a paid post. My status is not quite up there...yet.

Keeping Up Update : KUWTK Season 8 Episode 5 Review


I don't really like to admit it but I do follow the Kardashians reality show although not religiously but I still follow. And trust me, it is not the drama that made me follow this messed up family. But, despite what they are doing and how ugly sometimes they portray themselves, I do admire the sisters for working really hard to engraved their family name in the world and industry of success. Aside the drama and also their family bond, sometimes and in every episode, you can actually catch the family in their working environment and that is what made me watch the show because I get inspired by women who works really hard to do something for themselves. Like in the latest episode, the fact that Kim is going to Law School is one admiration on its own but the reality of her using her name, her influence and her popularity to find justice where it should be, personally, to me is very admirable but one thing that is driving me nuts and that is the situation involving her sister, Khloe and her baby Daddy who seem to just unable to be shaken off, Tristan Thompson. Read on and be warned, spoiler alert.

A Little Bit of Duck


The rich and the famous or the ones born rich has strike again. Or could it be that this is a story where one strikes too soon or a mistake that has been blown out of proportion? A few weeks ago, one of Malaysia top business mogul, Vivy Yusof - owner and founder of Fashion Valet, was caught in a rift of backlash from the netizens due to her comment that about the B40 community or simply known as the lower income community.

Untrap With The Parent Trap


It's my very own LiLo week and on Monday I started dedicating my week to watch her movies, one movie a day and I had to start the week with my ultimate favourite LiLo movie and best of all, it happens to be Miss Lohan's first big breakthrough.

LiLo is Back and I'm Dedicating The Week


So three days ago, my girl Lindsay Lohan dropped her latest single Back To Me and this writer, right here, is hella excited. Yes, for so many years, I have been supporting Miss Lohan through her success and wild endeavours, from her highs to her lowest of the lows. But being a fan and seeing how talented she truly is, I knew she was going to bounce back. And so, I decided to dedicate this beautiful week to my girl, LiLo - by binge-watching her movies, one day, one movie at a time.

Music Review : Lindsay Lohan's Back To Me


SHE'S BACK EVERYONE! My girl, LiLo is back and she is back not only for good but definitely with classic LiLo bang. Yesterday, she released her new single, Back To Me and from rave reviews, the song is total bop and personally, damn, the song is really, really a great comeback for Lindsay.

Saturday Review : To All The Boys I've Loved Before Book vs Movie



Back in 2014, for many teen love stories readers were going crazy over Jenny Han's To All The Boys I've Loved Before and I was one of them. Honestly, the book was definitely one of my favourite books since Harry Potter. I don't think I have ever picked up and finished a book in less than 48 hours and stalking every bookstore for the next book in the series - again, since Harry Potter. Jenny Han's To All The Boys I've Loved Before made me do that and so does her other books from the same series - P.S. I Still Love You and Always And Forever, Lara Jean. I don't know if I can say the same thing with the movie.

Throwback Thursday : My Love for Gossip Girl


When you have spend most of your sixteen to early twenties in between 2008 - 2010, you are probably familiar with 'Gossip Girl' - the TV Drama that introduced us Blake Lively and Leighton Meester and I am madly in love with the drama as I am madly in love with the books. Honestly, I was slightly turned off when I heard of the TV Show spin-off of the book series but I was so impressed by the performance of most of the actors that I can't help myself to love the show and here I am walking down a few memory lanes of some of my fave moment in Gossip Girl.

April Opening : A Month of Hope


The world is facing a pandemic and almost all countries is either on lockdown, lockout or in Malaysia, we are under strict Movement Control Order throughout the month of March. So to summarize, we are all under a pretty difficult time. But as many times as this has been said, at the end of a dark tunnel, there is a light and I guess April is the month where we can expect better changes and improving outcomes. Personally, for me it's a month of 'hope'.

Staying Safe in My Birthday Month


It's a dark, dark month this March and earlier on 18th March, Malaysia started the Movement Control Order (MCO) throughout the nation in order to control and treat the currently spreading Covid-19 virus. As much as it hurts me that this is happening in the month of my birthday, I still am very positive that we will all get through this moment.

March Madness is My Kind of Madness


March is here...well it has been here for almost 10 days but I just haven't the time to post anything this month. March is my favorite month because for one thing this month is my birthday month and I have decided to spend this entire month to celebrate myself. As of my past blog posts, I have numerous times share how much I was sick of being sick and waking up sick all the time...well, I seriously want to take this seriously and what better way than to start doing on the month where I know I can be very, very happy.

February Read : Being A Qur'an Tag Girl by Ayesha Syahira


February is here and while many are celebrating this month with love, I decided to jump onto the band wagon but instead of showering post of how to celebrate love, I just want to celebrate this month to get back on the journey on to love myself first and one of the many ways I understand for a Muslim to love themselves is to first love their Maker - Allah S.W.T. One of the many ways I can start to rekindle my relationship with Allah is to pick up whatever best advice I could get in every form available. This month, the advice comes in the form of a book by Ayesha Syahira. 

Checking On Myself In The Year 2020


A new year has come and this post has come in very, very late. Then again, there is a saying goes better late than never, right? At one point, some time before today, I actually thought this post was NEVER going to happen but I just had to push myself to write this post. Honestly speaking, I am in no mood to write anything and I think I'm about to fall back into pre-depresion, that phase where you just don't want to do anything and denying the truth that there is something going on inside of you that you don't really know but you know it's not right. Well, Alhamdullillah, I managed to get back up again (cue that title song form Trolls) but by no means this was an easy feat.

Fiftytwo Talks : Let's Go Back To The Khloe/Tristan Scandal


Now, this little story about Khloe Kardashian and her baby Daddy, Tristan Thompson has been how many would put it, old news and I won't deny it, it is definitely old news. But, let's also not forget how big of a news when the scandal broke out onto the entertainment business for both times that he cheated. So many people had their own peace to speak about this scandal even Khloe herself has said her peace, just like her Instagram post on forgiving those who have wronged her and after reading about that post, I thought maybe it is times I share what I think about the whole thing. Not that my opinion matters because I'm pretty much a nobody, right now but I also have something I want to share with those who comes across this post.
