Review of Olay Regenerist Miracle Duo range after 4 weeks!

It’s every women dream to look beautiful.

Be it your dream V-shape face, big eyes, sharp nose, luscious lips or attractive hair, I’m sure all of us yearn to look younger than our age. Well perhaps that’s the reason they said a woman’s age is a secret. And often when someone compliment us that “Hey you look younger than your age, what’s your secret?”. Well you can’t help but show a beaming smile to the person and say “Awww.... thank you, I shall buy you a meal!” Sounds familiar? 

I’m not sure about you but I stand inches away from the mirror to closely examine my face every now and then. Deep inside I was asking myself, where does this pigmentation, dark spots or wrinkles come from? Well I have tried all my life to take care of my skin so that I don’t age too fast. After all, the first thing a person sees when they meet you is your face (i.e skin). I’m so thankful for the creator of makeup because it makes me looks beautiful. There is a lot of things that can be concealed under makeup... Dark spots, pigmentation, uneven skin tones, dark eye circles etc, but do you realise you can never hide your wrinkles or lines? And wrinkles are a tell-tale sign of aging.

With the amount of pollution we face today, we are actually guilty of our skin’s aging process. We cannot stop the aging process but we can slow it down a little bit for sure. The natural aging process is called intrinsic aging, while the aging process caused by external factors is called extrinsic aging. Both show up visibly with the same results, but extrinsic aging is something we can fight against.

We all know we cannot stop our skin from aging but we can slow down the process, at least to reduce the signs of aging with the right anti-aging skincare. The new Olay Regenerist skincare range promises to renew from within, plumping surface cells for a dramatic transformation without the need for fillers.

In this Regenerist Miracle Duo range, there are a total of three products namely; Regenerist Miracle Boost Youth Pre-Essence, Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Day Cream and Regenerist Mirco-Sculpting Night Cream.

Honestly I haven’t been using Olay products for the longest time, I think the last time I was using them was during high school because it’s fairly affordable and my mum was using it. Over the years, Olay has improved their formulation and packaging and here I’m trying out this new Regenerist Miracle Duo range that an anti-aging skincare range that hydrates and renews to firm and lift, helping to retain skin’s youthful surface contours. In addition, they are fragrance free as well! Anyway, I have tried it for 4 weeks, so I’m going to share my thoughts here with you girls!

Olay Regenerist Miracle Boost Youth Pre-Essence (RM79.90/40ml) is designed to boost the penetration of anti-aging actives of your moisturizer 2 times more to increase skin cell metabolism and renewal for stunning, youthful skin that looks up to 10 years younger.

Olay Scientists and their research partners have combined the most advanced cellular bioenergetics tools with genomic, proteomic, and human skin modelling to identify anti-aging ingredients that can accelerate anti-aging results for faster, more noticeable benefits :- 

• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) : Boosts surface cell metabolism and renewal, Reduces wrinkles. 
• Amino Peptides  (Pro-Collagen molecules): Helps repair skin, Reduces wrinkles & Firms
• Lys’lastine (natural extract of Dill seeds): Enhances Skin elasticity 
• OliveM  (Antioxidant from Olive Extract): Improves penetration of anti-aging ingredients and helps protect skin from oxidative damage*

Ingredient list : Water, Niacinamide, Glycerin, Butylene Glycol, Hexylene Glycol, Dimethicone, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, PEG-32, Phenoxyethanol, Benzyl Alcohol, Sodium Hydroxide, Methylparaben, Dimethiconol, Disodium EDTA, Inositol, Isopropyl Isostearate, Sodium Metabisulfite, Tocopheryl Acetate, PEG-100 Stearate, Fragrance, Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate, Morus Alba Root Extract, Glyceryl Acrylate/Acrylic Acid Copolymer, PVM/MA Copolymer, Sodium PEG-7 Olive Oil Carboxylate, Lilium Candidum Flower Extract, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4, Lonicera Japonica (Honeysuckle) Flower Extract.

 Its unique auto-dropper packaging ensures the exact and right amount of the pre-essence is delivered in every single application. For ideal results, apply two-pump dosage per use. 

Apply product twice a day after toner, and before serum and moisturiser. Just un-screw the cap to automatically draw product into the dropper. Press the pump button to dispense the pre-essence.

The texture is gelish watery and easily absorbable. I did a skin moisture test with this alone and the result is amazing; my skin moisture jumps from 23.2% to 85.5%! I really like this product because my skin does not feel sticky, but instead very soft and supple.

Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream (RM99.90/50g) is a day cream. It’s formulated with the most concentrated Amino-Peptide Complex and Hydra-Firming Complex to :- 

• Renew skin’s surface layers for smooth texture and refined pores 
• Reduces lines and wrinkles with moisturisation 
• Exfoliates for smooth skin 
• Hydrates to help plump and firm skin

Ingredient list : Water, Glycerin, Isohexadecane, Niacinamide, Aluminum Starch Octenylsuccinate, Isopropyl Isostearate, Nylon-12, Dimethicone, Panthenol, Stearyl Alcohol, Polyethylene, Cetyl Alcohol, Behenyl Alcohol, Titanium Dioxide, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Sodium Acrylates Copolymer, Benzyl Alcohol, Tocopheryl Acetate, Mica, Methylparaben, Allantoin, Ethylparaben, Dimethiconol, Polyacrylamide, Fragrance, PEG-100 Stearate, Propylparaben, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cetearyl Glucoside, Sodium Hyaluronate, Stearic Acid, C13-14 Isoparaffin, Disodium EDTA, Butylene Glycol, Citric Acid, Sodium PEG-7 Olive Oil Carboxylate, C12-13 Pareth-3, Laureth-7 , Peucedanum Graveolens (Dill) Extract, Sodium Hydoxide, Propylene Glycol, Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Extract, Xanthan Gum, Imidazolidinyl Urea, Palmitoyl Pentapeptide-4

Although it looks creamy, but I assure you it is actually not the case. The texture is gelish and absorbs fairly fast into my dry skin once I massage it in. 

Using your fingertips, massage a small amount on the face and neck in an upward circular motion, focusing on areas like the brow and jaw line, which need more support (i.e lifting). My face feel amazing smooth and plump at this point. Even after spending several hours alternating between being outdoors and in an air conditioned room, my skin still feels moist without feeling sticky.

For night time, I used Olay Regenerist Mirco-Sculpting Night Cream (RM99.90/50g). It’s said to plump & firm skin, provide smooth & supple skin texture and enhance radiance. The cream is in transparent milky colour and texture is creamy gel-like. It’s a little heavier than the day cream. My skin feels soft, smooth and supple after applying this. As the texture is a little bit heavy, you do not have to apply a lot, yet my face feel so fresh and hydrated the next morning! More savings yay!

So what I do every night is to have a mini pampering massage of few minutes for myself. I take a small portion from the jar and warm up using my palm before applying to my entire face. Stroke from your forehead, down your cheeks and over to your neck. After a few minutes of gentle stroking, I use gentle pressing method to enhance absorption of product more efficiently. And please don’t forget to do the same to your neck because it’s the first sign of aging that often people neglected. 

Massages like this help to improve blood circulation and lymph circulation, which can enhance the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to cells. This makes the cells healthier and more efficient. Remember do not use excessive pressure or pull on your skin, soft, gentle movements are sufficient!

After using for 4 weeks of using Olay Regenerist Miracle Duo range, I’m pretty impressed with it. My skin looks more radiant, soft, plump and smooth and that’s the sign of healthy skin right? I think the healthier living lifestyle that I’m trying to adopt contributed to all this as well. I try to sleep earlier nowadays, have less oily & spicy food and have a mini walk to the lake nearby my house with my dog while playing Pokemon. 

Well I feel as we aged, we need to take care extra effort to look good inside out. And feeling beautiful is really powerful because it gives positive vibes to ourselves and people around us. I understand that as a woman living in this era, there are a lot of obstacles and pressure we are facing every day. But the fact that we feel beautiful is a proof that we have a lot of confidence in ourselves. Let’s forget how people are going to judge us because each of us has our own true beauty hidden within all of us. We are unique and there is no one else who will looks exactly like us. Be beautiful people <3 

Olay Regenerist Miracle Duo range new packaging is available in major pharmacies such as Watsons, Guardian and Caring starting October 2016.

My birthday wishlist from Simple Be Fashion.

With my birthday just a week from now, I'm actually hunting for a birthday gift for myself. Every year I will go and get a new dress to wear on my birthday. However the challenge to look for "the dress" is real especially in Malaysia where not much fashion brands that offer size for those has little bit more curves. Even if there are, the designs are limited and looks too old fashioned. I just can't get it... why can't plus size fashion looks trendy and fashionable as well. Life is too short for us to looks ugly and unapologetic for who we are.

And I stumbled into Simply Be Fashion, a fashion site that wants to inspire, influence and connect real women in a real world who simply want to be themselves. They provide perfect-fitting clothes from UK8 to UK38. 

Simply Be Fashion offers different range of fashion piece from clothing, shoes, lingerie, beauty & swimwear.

Price wise is pretty affordable, it starts from £4 (RM20) to £300 (RM1200) for in house & designer brands.

Here are some of the AW 2016 going out dresses that I like and my wishlist for my birthday this year! 

Red Magiscuplt Cut Out Detail Bodycon Dress

Love the cut out detailing!!! Seems like the perfect birthday dress for me! Featuring flattering cut out detail at the top and MAGISCULPT panelling, this bodycon dress will create the perfect silhouette.  Keep this look simple and let the dress do the talking.

Cape Shift Dress

I have been looking for cape dress forever! This is the must-have style statement this AW16 fashion trends. Not only the cape helps to cover the arms but it looks as if we are wearing coat over the dress.

Bardot Prom Dress

I always fancy off shoulder/wide V shape top or dress as it gives the illusion of a narrow shoulders hence slimmer upper body. With this pair of dress, it's easy pair with your favourite heels and clutch bag for a classy going out look.

Mesh Top Dress

A simple yet a must own dress for all the girls because of the versatility. This dress can take us from day to night by changing flats for platform heels. 

Chi Chi Lace Midi Prom Dress With Bardot Neck

Anything lace is LOVE! This super-glam dress with embroidery detailing lines on the bust and skirt gives extra sophisticated look. I love this deep red colour and would definitely flatter our Asian skin!

Embellished Maxi Dress

With Christmas coming soon in 2 months time, where they will be a lot of year end party to attend. I can't help notice this gorgeous beaded maxi dress. 

Cut Out Collar Shirt Dress

The cut out at the collar is unique and I love the print here! Pair with leggings and boots for a western cowboy girl inspired look.

Swatch & Review of Laneige x Lucky Chouette Collection

 

The LANEIGE MEETS FASHION project is an annual collaboration between LANEIGE and trendsetting fashion designers. LANEIGE MEETS FASHION blends fashion and beauty, presenting them as one look to create a new trend of ‘fashionable beauty’. With this initiative, LANEIGE offers new limited edition beauty products for a fashionable look. 

Now in its third year, the 2016 series of LANEIGE MEETS FASHION is in collaboration with Lucky Chouette, the second line from Korean fashion brand Jardin de Chouette. The brand has been growing dramatically over the last three years and is adored by Korean girl members, celebrities and influencers.

Presenting to you the Limited Edition LANEIGE x Lucky Chouette Collection where it features chic owl-themed designs exclusively for the new LANEIGE Serum Drop Tint, BB Cushion and Multi-Colour Palette.

Introducing this 2 owl character i.e chouettes which is used as the main design in the limited edition LANEIGE x Lucky Chouette beauty products. 

Bella Chouette, a gorgeous pink owl, exudes charm with her deep double eyelids and plump lips. She is eloquent, confident, enthusiastic and is not afraid to speak her mind. 

Vely Chouette is a lovely, blushing blue owl that is shy and introverted. She has clear, shiny eyes that can melt anyone’s heart. 

So I did a personally test to see which makeup look should I do? No surprise that I am a Bella Chouette because I live the motto of "I do what I like like what I do" As you scroll down to the end, I will show you my Bella Chouette makeup look.

One of the best seller product Laneige BB Cushion SPF 50+++

Both Laneige BB Cushion for Whitening and Pore Control BB Cushion underwent a facelift and reformulation earlier this year. Hence the packaging here is merely a limited edition but the formulation is still the same.

Laneige BB Cushion Whitening SPF 50+ PA+++ (RM159) - pink packaging

Brightens skin with Dual Whitening care and provides the ultimate bright, clear skin. The new formulation keeps skin moisturized with no darkening all day long, complete with a powerful UV protection of SPF50+ PA+++.

Laneige BB Cushion Pore Control SPF 50+ PA+++ (RM159) - black packaging

Keeps skin looking fresh and feel moisturized for long hours with its two- step oil control system. The new formulation keeps skin matte for hours without dryness and the feeling as if nothing is applied on the skin! Pore control maximizes the sweat-resistant effect so that the product stays on all day and provides complete protection with SPF50+ PA+++.

As I have dry & dull looking skin, I got the Laneige BB Cushion Whitening SPF 50+ PA+++ . The last time I reviewed in my blog was their old formula BB Cushion (here). 

I'm pretty excited to try out this new formulation as I have heard a lot of positive review about it. Well finally I have a chance to give it a try. 

Tip to apply BB cushion is to dab lightly and repeat the dabbing movement to build up the coverage. 

Here is a before & after picture using Laneige BB Cushion Whitening SPF 50+ PA+++. Imperfection seems to be perfectly covered without the use of concealer. Face looks instantly brighten and even up!

Newly introduced, Laneige X Lucky Chouette Serum Drop Tint (RM75) which will be permanent part of the LANEIGE lip colour range.

This new Laneige X Lucky Chouette Serum Drop Tint has 4 things to offer:-

1) Serum Tint that blends seamlessly with the lips

Serum Drop Tint formulated with an oil serum, the tint is designed to provide a wealth of essence to the lips. Its Berry Mix Complex™, rich in vitamin C and anti-oxidants keeps the lips smooth and supple while also giving off a vivid colour on the lips. 

Moisture Wrap™ with its wrapping technology, keeps skin moisturized all day through a network of hyaluronic minerals packed with skin purifying ingredients. To finish it off, a highly viscous paste is added for its moisture retaining and preserving power on the lips. 

2) A tinting upgrade that provides crystal clear gloss and rich colour

Oil and water soluble pigments are optimized for layers of moistures, providing rich colour and enhancing tinting effect, creating a super glossy oil for a vibrant and healthy look on the lips.

3) Moisturising, liquid-type serum oil tint
The combination of oil and a water type tint provides the best emulsion creating the serum drop tint. This mixture provides a texture that seamlessly blends into the skin to give a comfortable, long-lasting and refreshing finish with intense coloration. 

4) A triangle-shaped applicator designed especially for oil tint texture
Unlike a regular water drop tint applicator, the new serum drop tint applicator is specially designed with a hole in the middle of the tip to hold an ample amount of product. The triangle- shaped edge tip helps fill in the lips with colour from the inside. There are a total of 10 shades. It also comes with a Limited Edition packaging incorporating Lucky Chouette’s exclusively designed owls.

 I was given 2 shades to bring home to try. 

Laneige X Lucky Chouette Serum Drop Tint in Bite Me is a burgundy red lips.If you realised the colour is darker on the tube but looks not too dark on the lips. 

Laneige X Lucky Chouette Serum Drop Tint in Urban Coral looks hot pink on the tube but looks more sweet pink on my lips. I love this shade because it flatters my skin tone and it's easy to pair with any eye makeup from day to night!

This tinted lip colour is really easy to apply and blend. It does not feel drying at all on my lips and I guess the serum which has the same ingredient with their Lip Sleeping Mask is helping! Unfortunately for me the colour does not really stay as it will be gone after a meal and reapplication is needed. Oh before I forgot, this Serum Drop Tint has a mild sweet fragrance which is quite pleasant. 

 

Laneige Multi-Colour Palette (RM120) is designed with the charm of Bella Chouette and the lovely shyness of Vely Chouette, the Laneige Multi Shadow double-ups as an eyeshadow and multi-use palette that gives off a soft, shimmer highlighting effect.

Which is your favourite from Limited Edition LANEIGE x Lucky Chouette Collection? I like the Serum Drop Tint in Urban Coral and I can't deny I really like this cute pink packaging.

My Travel Tips : Top 4 Places to Visit in Desaru, Johor!

Last weekends I had some fun with some girls in Desaru courtesy of Johor Tourism. As a Johorian, I have really fond memories of Desaru because it is my family favourite beach holiday destination! After so many years, I'm glad I have chance to revisit Desaru again!

In fact, Desaru has developed so much actually, I can't recognize the place anymore.. however those memories lingering on my mind remains forever :)

Desaru is located approximately 88 kilometers east of Johor Bahru (JB), on the South China Sea and now it's only 45 mins drive from JB through the new expressway. From Kuala Lumpur, it took about 4.5 to 5 hour drive to Desaru.

I'm going to share 4 places to visit in Desaru, Johor! 

First thing first, let's check out the accommodation I'm going to stay in Desaru. We had a short 3 days 2 nights stay in Desaru courtesy of Tiara Desaru Seaview Residence (TDSR) which is the first condominium in Desaru that provides hotel service to buyer & residence. The main town Penawar is abou 5 mins drive away where there are restaurants, banks, grocery and police station nearby. With 24 hours gated guarded security, tenants can stay without any worries.

With 10 acres of land, TDSR build only 579 units to ensure the quality living of tenants at the best conditions. I was very impressed that there are a total of 4 pools within TDSR and the one in the picture is the main pool which is also opened to the public. Besides pools, there are also gym, tennis court, bicycling, garden and beach side cabana BBQ area and private beach! 

I stayed in 1 room apartment where we have a huge living room and bedroom! There is a dry kitchen with fridge and kitchen cabinets. A little different feeling from staying in hotel cos the space here is huge and it feels like home! Great for gathering with families and friends!

In our living room, there is sofa, TV and nice balcony with pool view. And yes all the rooms are equipped with air-conditioned! 

The room has huge space, I think can fit like 4 double bed! I love spacey bed room with plenty of natural light. 

There are 2 bathrooms in this unit and the toilet also super huge! Look at the space! Although the WIFI service is not available at the room during our stay, we were told it would be ready by Q1 of 2017.

Besides the main pool, there are 3 more private pools that are located between each condo blocks! 

Happiness overload because pool is my favourite hangout area! 

The private beach is just 5 mins walk from the condominium.  

The first place you need to visit in Desaru is definitely the beach. Desaru has 22km of beach and if you want to enjoy clean and unpolluted beach best to stay at accommodation that has private beach! 

The private beach at Tiara Desaru Seaview Residence is really clean and private! In case you are wondering, there is also black sand at the beach too. Scenery of tiny marine creatures such as baby crab and hermit crabs crawling over the unpolluted beach can be seen if you are lucky!

And if you are looking to invest for a beach home in Desaru, you might want to consider TDSR. We were told it is now open for sale from RM500k. Long term leasing also available from RM1,600 and daily homestay RM250.

Next I would recommend you to check out the Desaru Fruit Farm.

With 180 acres Tropical Fruitland, Desaru Fruit Farm is awarded the “Best Agro- Tourism site” in Malaysia 2006 and Innovative Tourism Attraction – Agro Tourism Conservation by Malaysia Tourism Awards 2010. They are more than 100 fruits and vegetables plantation in the farm for you to discover and learn! 

Let's try out our tropical fruits at the Fruit buffet! I really love this because their fruits are so sweet and juicy because it was harvested daily. And depends on seasons, different fruits are being served. Unfortunately we missed out the durian season! 

Lunch served are cooked with tropical fruits. It's really unique & refreshing. My favorite are stirred fry shredded papaya with seafood and deep fried squid with dragon fruit sauce.

After a scrumptious lunch, we went for an Agro Educational Tour at the fruit farm with Steve ; the son of the fruit farm who acted as our guide. 

We have fun hands on activities at the fruit farm such as harvesting dragon fruit.

This fruit farm is really different from the rest I visited because it's well planned with proper signage and sharing from guide. The farm is really clean and easy to walk! If you plan to visit, please don't forget to wear a cap/hat to cover yourself...

Besides learning about the fruits, there is also a small mini petting zoo at the farm. Lots of cute  rabbits to play with! You can buy carrots to feed them too! 

Meh meh.... Super curious goat looking at visitors! 

Others animals available at the farm. 

Just before we left, we were told there is a Go Kart Ride we can try.

Racing in the farm

Price for this is Tour + Lunch + Fruit Fiesta Buffet for Adult is RM58.30 while for child (3-11 years old) is RM50.90 including of GST.

Next sightseeing you can consider visiting is the Desaru Crocodile Farm which the Largest Crocodile Farm in West Malaysia where there are more than a thousand crocodiles are kept as pet. 

This lady introduced herself as the 3rd generation owner as the crocodile farm is passed down to her by her grandfather. She is really knowledgeable and passionate about his father favourite pet i.e crocodiles.

So many crocodiles are rear at this farm and all of them are rear as pet not for commercial use.

The huge pool at the middle of the farm. Looks calm but not really lah... cos gor hundreds of crocodiles in the pool.

This one here is 155 years old and it's one of the oldest crocodiles at the farm. Looks at the huge head. Scary eh....

Entrance fee is RM8 for adult and RM4 for children.

So we have a visit to Fruit and Crocodile Farm, what's next?

Why not to Malaysian largest Ostrich Farm?

There are a total of 100 of ostriches in this farm. The farm is clean and the birds are really gentle and friendly.

Are you looking at me ?

You get to have the opportunity to get close and personal with the ostriches like this. Buy them some food to feed, they will come close to you.

This largest bird on earth is even taller than me :(

Chickaboo... say cheese to my camera! 

Oval egg, oval face :P

This huge ostrich egg looks as big as my face... 1 ostrich egg is equivalent is 24 chicken eggs. We were told this egg is really healthy to consume as it has lower cholesterol compared to chicken egg.

1 ostrich egg is about 1.2kg and it can withstand up to 130kg weight on sandy ground.

To open an ostrich egg, you need to use a drill to open because the shell thickness is 2-4mm. 

Guess what the ostrich shell egg can be made into lamp decor! This ostrich farm has restaurant offers ostrich egg omelette, satay (bbq ostrich meat)....

Opening Hours: 10:00am - 06:00pm (Daily)Entrance Fee is RM12 for adult and RM8 for kid

And one of the most memorable dinner I had in Desaru was in Seafood Restaurant in Lotus Desaru Beach Resort & Spa. From the outer look of the building it seem like a fairy tales concept whereby the building looks like a Castle from the Fairy Tales story line which the children and also the parents were enchanted with the concept.

Seafood Restaurant is located next to the beach. Super huge dining hall and I believe can fit more than 100 people at one time.

 I don''t usually think hotel food is nice but this seafood dinner is really superb! Fresh and cooked to perfection. Thanks Lotus Desaru for the dinner!

Bessides that there is also a waterpark in Lotus Desaru Resort. For patron living in this resort, they have fee entry to the waterpark.

It also features water play areas, such as water slides, splash pads, spray grounds (water playgrounds), lazy river, or other recreational bathing, swimming, and bare footing environments.

 Lazy river is a water ride found in water parks, which usually consists of a shallow (2½ ft. to 3½ ft.) pool that flows similarly to a river. There is generally a slow current, usually just enough to allow all too gently ride along lying on rafts. And best of all, it’s free & fun.

Desaru has so much to offer besides being a beach holiday destination. All the farms (Fruit Farm, Ostrich Farm and Crocodile Farm) we visited provided really interesting educational tours and it would be great destination for family. There is also a new golf club that is newly opened ELS Club Desaru Coast which offers 27 holes of championship golf designed by Ernie Els. Not only that, we were told that Hard Rock Desaru Hotel would be opened by fall of 2017. Woohoo... Desaru going to be a really happening travel destinations in next few years! See you again Desaru!
