Etude House A/C Clinic Pink Powder Spot Extreme


I was curious about Etude House's  Pink powder kit  . The pink powder is often compared to Mario Badescu's drying lotion.  When I went to the Etude House I wanted to buy the eye brush but then I saw the kit.The kit comprises of a  pink powder , cream and cotton bud.  I still have a pimple so I bought the kit. The price is RM 59.90. I have used the pink powder for about 5 days. The pimple has almost dried .  I also used the Red spot balm and whitening  cream for the tiny acne scars, so far so good but the scars had not dissapeared. It will take time to finish the pink powder. I am glad I bought this  kit.
Mal came back two weeks ago from Madinah with many gifts.He treated GG and family and us for dinner at Vicchuda's last week. It has been awhile since we went there. The food is still good. Kenit the kitten died three days ago  . Nas and family is here until this Wednesday . She will be going to Riyadh in September to teach. My parents will be going with her. Last night those in the house went to Seoul Garden for dinner which was also Father's day. We did not linger long though. The food is abundant and we were full.

Benzac AC 5


Last 4 days I bought Benzac AC 5 with 5% benzoyl peroxide.  I had two cystic  pimples which would not subside . I used Nixoderm and it did became smaller. Sometimes Nixoderm works sometimes   not . I read  about Benzoyl peroxide as opposed to salycic acid products which I am using.  I bumped into a Lowyat forum on acne. The lady who started the thread suggested  Cetaphil, Panoxyl and Neutrogena combination.  I thought I saw Panoxyl at Guardian pharmacy  last time. I did not search for Panoxyl though , I bought the Benzaic AC 5 instead. The price is RM 9.90 at Zenith pharmacy in TTDI  for 15 gm, there is large size for RM 30.00.
 Maybe next time I will try to find Panoxyl. After using this cream , the pimples have nearly dried out and I will have to find some cream for acne scars.  So far there are two more pimples coming out. I don't really know why but I think it is a case of stress or an allergic reaction. Here is the link to the Low Yat forum :http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/308877

Carnaval Churrascaria


About a month  ago, my husband and I went to Carnaval Churrascaria in Damansara Jaya. I have always wanted to try the food there . My husband agreed at last after a lot of cajoling. Since it is a meat lover's paradise he decided to follow. We went to the restaurant about 8.00 pm. The restaurant is not difficult to find. We chose the seat outside, maybe next time we will go inside the restaurant. The salad bar is large . I like it. Soon , as we sat the meat came . The meat  was tasty. Yum yum. After an hour my husband was full and he wanted to go back. I would definitely will come back  to this restaurant again . The price for the buffet is RM 62.00 per person.  Here is the link to their website :http://www.brazilchurrasco.com/aboutus.html

Max Factor Pan Stik




I bought this foundation last year  but I started to use this foundation again about a few weeks ago.  This foundation is creamy and is easy to apply. However the colour is beige with rose undertone , I am more towards yellow undertone. I am not especially  happy with the colour but I think I will mix it with another foundation .

Safi blood purifier and Sari Ayu Acne Lotion


A few days ago, I put Nixoderm on the pimple on my face. After that I had two new bumps . After  about 10 months the old "friend" came back to visit.  I started using the Oxy and Clean and Clear face wash. I really do not like this . Then I went to buy the Sari Ayu Anti Pimple Lotion.  Some of the ingredients of this lotion are : Water  ,alcohol, glycerine , Bentonite, Kaolin , Zinc Sulfate , Camphor , Menthol , Salicylic Acid,  Methylparaben , Fragrance and CI 16255.  My mother said that people suffering from pimples and such have  dirty blood , luckily my husband had bought a blood purifier called Safi. He said that it is very good. I have been taking this  herbal medicine in the morning for three days. It is an Unani medicine,  and for pimples and boils one has to take one dose of two teaspoonfuls  for 20 days in the morning . After 3 days , one of the pimple had subsided and two of the pimples are getting smaller . I am so happy .
The Sari Ayu Anti pimple lotion   is good. One has to shake the lotion , and then apply with cotton pad. I use the lotion twice a day. The price for the Sari Ayu Pimple lotion is  RM 10.90 while the Safi blood purifier is RM 15.00 for 175 ml. It is available in a shop at  CT One Plaza ,which is  on  the ground floor. Look for the shop which sells a lot of Shan products. CT One Plaza  is the shop next to Semua House around Jalan Masjid India, Kuala Lumpur .
My sister ,  Nas and family came back on Friday night . The  whole family with GG and Taei  and their  families ,18 of us went to  the 'Just Thai' restaurant at  One Utama  for dinner last night  . The food was tasty and we enjoyed the fare very well . My father said that food at ,Just Thai'  restaurant is nicer .Thank you  to  my brothers and sisters who treated us . Terima kasih , daun keladi. He he he.

Maxi Peel Exfoliant cream


I saw the Maxi Peel products advertised at a pharmacy near the vet's . When I went to NSK with my husband about 3 weeks ago , I picked their  exfoliant cream. I chose the mild one for the stubborn blemishes still on my face. The price is RM 14.90.  I have been using this cream on and off but on most days and sometimes at night. It does help help to eliminate the blemishes if not all.  When I used the first time , it stung a little . This product is from the Phillipines and apparently it is popular there. Apart from the exfoliant cream , there are cleansers, soap ,moisturizing cream , sunblock cream,cover cream , exfoliant body lotion and exfoliant solution. I have bought the exfoliant body lotion yesterday. The products price is reasonable too. Here is a link to their website :http://maxi-peel.com/products.php
