Etiqa's New Medical Plan Starts From Only RM1.74 Per Day!

Image
Guilty as charged. I was one of those who didn't care about insurance when I was younger because like most millennials, I was too busy living my life and working so I can earn enough money to live my life. Who has time to care about paying for insurance, right? Especially when we are not able to see the returns immediately or ever. I'm grateful that my mom took care of everything when I was younger and ignorant towards medical insurance. As a freelancer, I don't have any company medical benefits to fall back to, it's all on me. It was only recently, when I took over and had to pay for my own insurance that I truly started to care about what I was paying for. Every month, forking out RM200 is not a small sum of money for someone like me! How do other people of my age or younger do it? x After doing some research, according to ‘ Malaysia Insurance Sector Report 2017/2018 ’, it seems that the insurance penetration in Malaysia is pretty low, between 40%

Vietnam After Dark - 4 Best Nightlife Activities In Ho Chi Minh City

Image
Ho Chi Minh City is Vietnam’s largest city by population. While taking up just a mere 0.6% of the country’s land area, it contains 8.34% of the country’s population and 20.2% of its GDP. This high octane city of both commerce and culture has driven Vietnam forward with an effervescent energy. The city breathes life and vitality into all who settle here, and visitors cannot help but be hauled along for the ride.

Known as a city that never sleeps, Ho Chi Minh City is brimming with a myriad of pursuits and activities after the sun goes down to please just about anyone. While lively and vibrant, it can also be quaint and peaceful. All these factors contribute to Ho Chi Minh City’s uniqueness – which one truly has to experience to appreciate. So, from live music to street dining to cultural pursuits to simply taking in

3 Reasons Why ezbuy Is A Convenient Shopping Platform

Image
Good news! I've heard that ezbuy has recently introduced two new giant e-commerce sites into their long list of e-commerce partners. They are JD.com and mogujie.com, both are huge in the Chinese market. I believe we Malaysians do quite like shopping on platforms originated from China, who can blame you, the things are cheap. Unfortunately, I'm one of those people in the category of knowing about these awesome e-commerce sites but can't fully enjoy it due to language barrier since my Chinese language is quite poor. Though, thanks to ezbuy, it's possible now! Before I get into why I think ezbuy is a convenient shopping platform, let me talk a little bit about the two new sites mentioned earlier. Some of the items that I'm interested from JD.com JD.com JD.com is also known as Jing Dong, another leading e-commerce site in China. JD.com is famous for their quality of products, fast delivery, authenticity of products, and their great customer service. Having

Why Serum? & Nutox 7 Days Beauty Challenge!

Image
I've teamed up with Nutox to speak about the importance of serums in our skincare routine. I feel sometimes, even for a beauty blogger like me, tend to not give serums enough credit. Personally, I always speak about how much I love a moisturiser or how cooling a cleanser is but never really, how much I like a serum. That's mainly because I too, am guilty of overlooking the power of serums because serums in general, works from within the skin. When we can't see or feel it, we tend to care less of it.  A lot of my non-skincare junkie friends would probably only know about the 3-step routine - cleanse, tone, moisturise. I think it's great that at the very least, they got the basics right. However, as time pass, as we age, our skin will need more than just 1, 2, 3. It needs ingredients that is active to maintain early stage of ageing skin. This is where serums becomes significant. 

Curél, A Japanese Skincare Review [+Video Demo]

Image
I've recently tried out this latest skincare product from Kao, Curél Skincare Trial Kit III Enrich Set on video and oh boy, let me tell you that it made me extremely curious about the brand! Allow me to give a brief intro about this brand.  If I'm not mistaken, this brand recently just came to Malaysia a couple months back and it's currently available for sale in a few online stores. Yup, it's not even on our local store shelfs yet and I hope they are in the midst of getting them into some of our local pharmacies as trust me, you will want to get your hands on some of these items because they are actually pretty good. Curél is a Japanese skincare brand that's made for sensitive Asian skin. Formulated from Kao's extensive dermalogical science research, its hydrating and moisture-retaining Ceremide care ingredient targets the actual causes of sensitive Asian skin and provides a highly effective solutions to improve skin's condition. 

Awesome DIY Pallet Wall For Your Photobooth Background!

Image
(image source: Jake and Necia Photography via  weddingpartyapp.com ) As I'm about to get married in a couple of days time, for the past month, I have been researching on a number of wedding DIYs for inspiration for my own wedding. I realise there has be a rise in trend of setting up a beautiful photo corner or photobooth specially for their guest to take pictures. No doubt, since it's so easy to snap a picture for social medias these days, people are getting more and more creative as well as seem to prefer to DIY to add that touch of personalised feeling into the wedding. Something that they can look back and be proud of as they made it themselves. Plus, it's more common for DIY projects to be cheaper than hiring someone else to do it for you. In particular, I was really impressed by the Pallet Wall background design. It has a very rustic and of course, hipster look. The best part, it's super easy to put them together and reuse them by decorating it completely

How To Do Laundry Without Detergent?! \\ #TehChamLee

Image
What happens when a guy move out from his parents house and starts staying on his own? Apparently, if you are anything like Dexter, you'll start being very aware of other alternatives when it comes to laundry. The last detergent he had was some leftovers from her sister who previously stays there before he moves in. He was stinging on that until recently, he ran out and wanted to replenish it.  While we were at the hypermarket, he got a shock after finding out the price of detergent these days. TBH, I actually laughed pretty hard cause clearly, he never ever buys household stuffs while living with his parents. I don't blame him cause he really didn't need to worry about those back then.  Recently, he told me about this 24 hours self-service laundry place where they uses a specific technology that allows us to do our laundry without needing to use detergent. What?! He did his research and also got us an invite to visit Cleanpro Express to learn more during t

My Face Massage Routine \\ Your Best Beautiful \\ JQLeeJQ

Image
Hello everybody! I've teamed up with Olay to come up with this face massage tutorial video for you. I highly recommend everyone to try doing simple face massages at home whenever you can because massaging is good for your skin and for your mind too. It boost blood circulation which helps supply oxygen to the face, provides a natural face lift that also makes skin glow healthily from within, better absorption of moisturising cream, and naturally detoxifies skin. In the video tutorial, I'm using the Olay Regenerist Miracle Duo that consist of Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream and Regenerist Miracle Boost Youth Pre-Essence, the two red bottles in the picture above, to prep and massage my face. To give you an idea of what these products do: Olay Regenerist Micro-Sculpting Cream helps renew skin's surface layers for smooth texture and refined pores, reduces lines and wrinkles with moisturisation, exfoliates for smooth skin, and hydrates to help plump and fir

Nano Japan Diet & Antioxidant Smoothie Review!

Image
As much as I like sleeveless tops, I generally try to avoid them, especially the ones that shows my entire arm. Main because I used to play volleyball and swim a lot, which could have been the reason for having broader shoulder and more muscles on my arms. The problem with this is that, if I don't work out, the muscles in my arms get flabby overtime and it's definitely not flattering at all. Plus, it's the hardest to lose when it comes to arm fats.  So when I was asked to try the Nano Japan Diet and Antioxidant beverage, it took me some time to say yes because I'm a little hesitant when it comes to dieting products that need to consume. Though, I had a really good experience with the Nano Japan Collagen powder and I'm still loving it because of how delicious it taste mixing with my morning coffee or milo, thus, I thought why not try this out.  My fiance knows very well that I have insecurities with my flabby arms and he loves to make fun of it whene

Indeed Laboratories Hydraluron Mega Moisture Trio [Review]

Image
First of all, I think the packaging looks simple and pretty. It's great. However, I can't fully rave them as my absolute favourite products, probably because the products are gel based and my skin is not quite friendly towards gel products even though it's made to quench my parched skin. Indeed Laboratories are products exclusively sold at selected Watsons in Malaysia and they are paraben free, fragrance free, colourants free, and sulphates free. The products are not tested on animals too. They do have a range of products that targets various skin concerns, I suggest that you get to the counter at Watsons and check them out yourself because Malaysia did not bring in all of the available products presented on their website and social media pages. Now, the Hydraluron Mega Moisture Trio targets dehydrated and dry skin. It claims to have five scientifically proven ingredients that provides instant and sustainable moisture, mainly the famous Hyaluronic Acid, allows you to

GOOD VIBRATIONS - Pobling Mini Ion Applicator [Review]

Image
Sometimes, hands are not enough, we need vibrations... Oh... what a weird way to start a blogpost. LOLS! Keep your thoughts clean people! Though, I kid you not. When it comes to beauty, we'll always want more and thanks to the advancement of technology, we no longer just relying on skincare products, beauty gadgets are gaining popularity among beauty junkies. Anything that claims to be of help to enhance our skin condition, we'll try. The science behind vibration... It might sound zany but apparently there are some serious science behind the idea of vibrations being good for the skin. In the 1960s, Russians discovered that vibration training cause muscles to contract 30 to 50 times per second. Contraction helps to increase blood circulation, transporting oxygen and nutrients throughout the body, which helps with anti-ageing as it's a workout that can boost the production of human growth hormone. In layman's term, it has the potential to rejuvenate our skin,

We Are Young Adults, We Drink Water When We Gather & Why You Totally Should Too! [Spritzer Hot & Warm Mini Dispenser Giveaway!]

Thank God for unimates! They are the ones that knows and accepts you for all your crap. Watching each other grow for that short 3-4 years was definitely an interesting journey for me. My life wouldn't be the same without the friends I had in my Foundation and Degree years, they just know how to brighten up a gloomy day! I couldn't believe that it's been 7 years since we knew each other! It's crazy how much "those were the days..." we now use everytime we catch up.  "Remember, we used to karaoke every week after class?" "I still remember we used to FIFA the whole night till morning and order the best burger nearby when we were hungry." "We once could stay up 24-h just to finish our assignments and still can go to class the next day. Ohmygosh, those were the days when we had the energy." Truly, it's so different now. As we grew older, of course, we are much wiser now ( hopefully ), we realised that we are re

New Japanese Haircare Trend: Non-Silicone Shampoo

Image
If there's one thing that I've learnt from the recent launch of Bene Premium Hair Care Series in Zebra Square a few weeks back, it would definitely be the statement "A rise in non-silicone haircare products in Japan." Of course, something new in Malaysia, it's no longer new in an advanced country like Japan. Apparently, the sudden appearance of non-silicone shampoos in Japan started way back in 2010 but only the past year, more people took notice of it.
