Zam Zam Hair oil



This is the hair oil that my mother used when she was young.  It is also my first hair oil. Since I am not going to Jalan TAR  any time soon  , my father bought for me a bottle . It is an emerald coloured hair oil.  I used it along with the  Seramputhi oil. An red and  a green hair oil.  It has a nice fragrance though . A reader has asked about this oil a few months back. To my lovely reader , this hair oil has worked for me .
 It is not as strong as Jadayel but I like it. After I used it  about a month , there is a lot of hair growth near the bald spot. I am so happy . I will continue to use this hair oil  . This particular hair oil , has been around since 1947. It can also be used on the beard and eyebrows.    Apart from this herbal hair oil , the company also produced a  coconut  hair oil and Amla hair oil.The price  of this hair oil is  RM 4.50 . You can purchase it at Mydin stores, at most Indian Muslim shops or by online.  You can also buy this hair oil from their website :Link

Gamat Shaari Cold powder


Before I bought the Bedak Sejuk Pattani , the sales asisstant of  Adinda Beauty shop  suggested  this cold powder. After I 've used it several times,  I had a few pimples. So I stopped using it . My mother used this powder at night for about  one month . She said that it tightens her face.  About a month ago when I had    two spots ,  I used this powder again.
 I used about 10 droplets and mix them  with water. The next morning , the pus on one  the pimples had dried. I kept using the powder   for  5 nights in a row  and  the pimples were gone. This cold powder or Bedak sejuk works for me. So now , I  alternate using  the cold powder that I have. This cold powder contains Gamat or the fabulous sea  cucumber which has wonderful recuperative properties. This  product is available at most Jamu kiosks , shops and  also online.  The price of this cold powder is RM 5.00.

Semparuthy Hair Oil


Since I suffer from hair loss, I have also  bought an oil. This is a hibiscus oil  which is produced here in Malaysia.  It is hibiscus extract in coconut oil with other herbs. I have used it for two months with satisfactory result.  It is red in colour and have quite a  pleasant smell. There is a Semparuthi hair shampoo, and another shampoo and oil  to blacken the  hair.  I oiled my hair twice a week  . So far it is good , I have a little bit left.  Since I haven't not go back to Jalan Masjid India these days , I'm not able to buy this oil. The price of this oil is RM 10.90.

Meera Hair shampoo


During the fasting month , I realised that I'm suffering from hair loss. Especially at the forehead , and the hair line is receding. Then my husband agreed to bring me  to Jalan Masjid India. That was the last week of Ramadan. I went to buy the Meera Hair shampoo which is actually herbal. I have used this shampoo sometime ago . That was when it has a cup in the jar. Nowadays , it is in a bottle . I bought the jar and one sachet. This is good, at first I use one tablespoon and then two tablespoons. I have read that oiling is good for the hair . I have bought another hair oil . A hibiscus hair oil. At first I wanted to buy a mustard oil and put it with hibiscus flower.
 I couldn't find any hibiscus tree around. The hibiscus flower or Bunga Raya is the national flower of Malaysia.  The shampoo and the sachet lasted for a  month.  Since I am not going to Jalan TAR  yet . I have bought another shampoo.   After two months , there are tiny hair growing on the nearly bald part of my head . Alhamdullillah.  The price of the shampoo is RM 5.90 while the sachet is RM 3.50. I bought it at the new Malliga store , just behind Mydin Jalan Masjid India.

Cosmoderm Tea tree Cleanser and toner



I was interested in the Cosmoderm tea tree range. I have used  the cleanser and toner. I bought the toner first. It stings at first, but  after that it went well. Since I was into  oil at the time , I did not buy their day and night moisturizer.  There is a clarifying mask from this range as well. I bought the cleanser a month later.  For  1 month or more I did not have any pimples. This is a good range. Sometimes Cosmoderm has promotions for their Vitamin E and Tea Tree range.  I like these products. The price of the cleanser is RM 15.90 while the clarifying toner is RM 19.90 . Their products have halal certification. I am interested in their sunblock. Maybe later  I will buy it. You can buy their products online here : http://www.cosmoderm.com.my/

Life - Flo Pure Rosehip Seed oil


I have used this rosehip oil for two months. The price is low compared to the other rosehip oil available.  When I first used it , I had a big bump on my nose. After that I had  a few tiny  pimples. Nothing big and scary.  The scars on my face are still visible but not as deep as it were in March. The scar is getting flatter. 
I still cannot put  natural  oil around my eyes as the lines would get deeper. I got a few compliments from family members about my face. My husband commented that I looked darker.  The Lifeflo rosehip oil is in a 30 ml with added vitamin E . The rosehip variety used is the  Mosqeuta.
There is the Rose Canina and the Rose Rubigosa. I am not sure but there is the interchange use of Rose Masqueta  and Rose Rubigosa. I  like this rosehip oil.  My skin looks good with it.
With natural oil , it would take more than 3 months for things to take effect. I bought this rosehip oil from Lemongreen2u.com. The price of this oil is RM 32.90.

Melvita Rose Extraordinary water


This is another gift from my sister Yati when we went to the Melvita store at One Utama.  She also bought one for herself. This is a toner with  rose damask floral water, wild roses and hyaluronic acid.  I was looking  at  their beauty oils. The SA said , said that Borage oil is suitable for dry skin.  It seems that Nigella oil is good for oily skin. This toner smells very nice. I used to use alternate  this toner with the Neutrogena toner . The price of this toner is RM 88.00.
I am still using almond oil at day time and I have bought a Rosehip oil. I will review that in another post.  Melvita is a organic company from France. I am drawn to their beauty oils above all . I have thought of  buying Borage oil and adding this oil to the almond oil. Borage and almond is an old combination.
