Bedak Harum Nasila

This is another traditional skincare product which is still used until this day. It is a face powder which is made from a stone found in the ocean. It is widely used in the Northern states of peninsular Malaysia.

My mother said she has used this powder when she was young.  That would be more than 50 years ago. This powder could  help with rashes,  blackheads, pigmentation, pimples and to help  smoothen the face. You can use it at night or after you wash your face. Most of the users  are happy with this powder. It could be used as a daily face powder.

This powder comes in a circular chunk with a puff.  It has a nice fragrance. Whenever I used this powder I would get a breakout  So I would use this powder sparingly. You can find this powder at most Jamu shops. The  price of this powder is RM 8.00.

Cosmoderm makeup remover

The reason I bought this makeup remover is that it  can   eliminate  oil seed.  I have one or two oil seeds  on my face.  I think this is important to consider  when you use  a vitamin E cream or oil . You have to moisten a cotton pad before you add the makeup remover. I bought this  remover when I went to Bangi Gateway.  Some selected  pharmacies  carry all Cosmoderm products .
At the moment ,  I don't really want to change skin care products  . I have enlarged pores , dents and fine lines. This has to change .  The price of  Cosmoderm makeup remover is  RM 16.90. To all my readers Happy New Year .

 

Simple Toner

 My mother is using a Simple  moisturizer . I bought their  toner because it has no alcohol. It is soothing yes but I prefer something much  stronger . I have nearly finished the 200 ml bottle . The product is okay . I need a stronger toner ,so I went back to the Aiken toner which has sallicylic acid  in it .  I bought another cosmoderm vitamin E cream . At the moment I have made another face oil. I have no breakouts so I am quite relieved . We are at the end of the year . We will celebrate Maulud Rasul in a few days . Insha Allah.

Simple products can easily be found at major pharmacies. The retail price is RM 17.90.

Olay Regenerist Revitalizing eye serum

A few months ago , I tried an eye exercise in order to eliminate the fine lines under my eyes. It was from the You Tube . After sometime there are more lines . I was quite disturbed. So I bought the Olay Regenerist eye serum  to help  . I have used this eye serum  for two months . The fine lines are not as apparent but are still there .  There are no new lines so I am quite happy . The lines have not been diminished. On the whole I am happy with this cream.   Olay products are  easily available nationwide .  The retail price of the eye cream is RM 54.90.

Nutox Anti Ageing cream

This another day cream from Nutox. This cream is called the Anti ageing cream. Since I have mature skin with fine lines , I decided to try this cream. I have lines between the eyes area. I was annoyed ,yes age is creeping in. like Nutox creams. They work. I always buy their products during sales. I am happy to find this cream. Now I am searching for products  to eliminate my under eye lines and the small scars on my face. The normal price of the Nutox Anti Ageing cream is RM 42.30  . Nutox products are available at major pharmacies in  Malaysia.

Botanical Societies Rosehip oil

My sister gave this rosehip oil when she came back from Canada. It is in a 59 ml glass bottle. This is a wonderful  rosehip oil . I don't know how much it costs . In Malaysia a 45 ml to 50 ml Rosehip oil would cost anywhere from RM 115 to RM 156. Let's forget about cost. I use the oil  on my face ,hands and arms. I have a lot of cuts and scrapes when Gebu my cat bit me. It has healed a lot of the scrapes. I still have half of the bottle. I have yet to try Argan oil again. I would buy Rosehip oil once I finished this one.

I celebrated my 50th birthday on Monday.  I am grateful to Allah who gave me a long life. There are many ups and downs. I hope to become a better person , a better Muslimah in days to come . InshaAllah.

So going back to my face. I have consumed a new tea to slim down. I have two spots on my face. My sister Yati and my brother Zahid are here to attend my cousin's wedding. Yesterday GG and Sadd came to the house . I made the lamb tomato while my mother made lamb curry.

Shiseido Black mask

This is one of the popular masks around. It has been around for about 3 years. This  mask is very good  to remove blackheads and as a nose strip. It is  a  black peel off  sticky mask that you can use on the face. I used it on the nose area. It is an effective mask to use whenever you have bumps on the nose. 

I have an ongoing pimple under my left eye. It was very large last week and it does not seem to subside. As it is only one ,I thought of buying some acne patches. The price of this mask is RM 1.00 to RM 3.00 depending on the sellers.  It is usually sold at Jamu shops or from online sellers.
