Remember the "Sabun Ketiak"?

Hmm...so you knew what my review is going to be about, based on the first word if this entry.  Not bashing its effectiveness because it works on others though. I guess I'm not one of those who have positive result.
Okay, let's speed up.

The reactions I had when I started using it:
  • After the bath,  wow. ..I felt fresh and it actually felt good.
(Then.....these happened. T.T )
  • My neck, jawline and arms itched like there's no tomorrow.

Thinking it was the healing process so I bore with it (was told that approx after 2 weeks, the reaction will be gone) but the itchiness never seemed to go away after 1 month.
So, probably,  I used too much? Then, I lessen the amount but itchiness persists.  Oh. ..man! It works on other people!  Why not me? ? So, it was another disappointment.

But...I did think about one of the ingredients...bamboo salt. I mean the possibility that my skin is sensitive to.
You see every time,  (if/when) I go to the beach. ..and into the water...itchiness occurred too. And I thought reason could be the polluted water.
But the product isn't beach water.  Is it possible that my skin reacts to salt? Okay to consume but externally not okay?
Anyways,  at least I've tried and knowing salt could be the reason I have these reactions, I'll avoid anything with salt in it (^^) Y
Ps: sweat is salty too right?  Hmmm..*thinking mode.

Mosquitoes. My favourite Quitoes Quitoes repellent

Tried all kinds of repellent,  from coiled ones,  liquid ones, spray ones,  patch ones, whatever soap that repels these blood suckers, aromatherapy ones. ..you name it...None works.

So,  reason I post this entry is, of course,  I found one that works.  Ive tried 3 days in a row and I'm mosquitoes bite freeeeee!

Didn't expect it'll work.  Well, it did and it does and doing its job right this moment.  I'm so loving how L'OCCITANE Verbena Body Lotion helps me shooing away mosquitoes.

Was it me or the slimming products?

I have weight issue since 2005 and have been growing sideways. Fond of looking pretty in beautiful dresses, I had to lose weight but it seemed impossible due to busy schedule. I know it's defined as lack of discipline because I eat what I want and when I want. Plus, I don't really exercise during those years.

This weight issue started when I furthered my tertiary education. Away from home means no home cooked meals. Since, I'm not a great cook and hostel's rule says no cooking
So, it means outside food aka 'aji',  instant food or fast food for every meal. When finance was running low, buns and bread is often the only alternative to keep my tummy full.

So, let's go straight to the point now, shall we? Otherwise,  I would go non stop yapping about my life as a student.

All these years, I've tried many different types of products, even went to slimming centers, join the gym with personal trainers hoping to lose fat instead of building muscles.

I exercised regularly during school years and able to maintain my weight.  Somehow, doing it last year seemed to backfire and I end up 3kgs heavier. So, it was pretty 'amazing', wasn't it? So £ I stopped exercising or even do the belly dance. Anyways,  I would LOVE to list every product I've tried but does nothing to help my body type, but decided not to because I'm currently selling the product I'm consuming at the moment, which means...it's really unethical.  Just because those options did not work for me does not mean they don't work on others.

Due to all the disappointment,  I vow (yet again) not do these anymore.  I stopped drinking carbonated drinks, mo juice or whatsoever. Only plain water. Hmm..able to maintain my weight of 75kgs. Not going up or down.

One day, I saw this senior's wife of mine shared an album in FB. So, as curious as always. I asked her about the particular product and she explained and guaranteed that I'll lose weight...so..what the heck...it's RM180 per bottle with 60 capsules. Some might find it expensive but anyone ever bought a box of 20 sachets of powdered stuff that is supposed to make one lose weight at the price of  RM250? Well, I did and I bought 4 but not 1 gram lost. So, basically,  Au Li Jing Slimming Capsules would be my last purchase of any kind of slimming product. If it doesn't work then, that's it. And it did. I lost more than 10kgs and now at 58kgs.

Before this, I've tried numerous of products and get myself injected with I don't know what the hell the substance was (meant to burn fat). I had sores and bruises around my waist and hip  but never help one bit. Those products helped others,  why don't they work on me?? I was so sad and upset. I felt hopeless. I started to think that the advertisements are just too good to be true. With *results vary on individuals*,  they can just say it's not their problem but my body was not being cooperative. A very convenient way to get away from responsibility. Anyways, now I know it's neither's problem. It's a matter of suitability.

It's like a dream come true to have lost 17kgs in 8 months. Some of you may think, " That's a very long time" But, I feel safe knowing it took those months to lose my weight than losing 12kgs in how many days as advertised in FB recently.  What's in that product anyway? Don't you find it suspicious? ?  I really hope it was a advertisement gimmick. Or...there's something really powerful about that product. (0.o)?

Now, that I finally found the one. I dont think I'll have to worry about my back pain and knee pain anymore. XD Cheers to that!

The first anti-stretchmark product in Malaysia.

What do I mean first anti-stretchmark product in Malaysia? Obviously, there are tons of anti-stretchmark products in Malaysia. Well, of course there are. I used them.

If you read my previous entry, you'll know that I'm referring to the first Malaysian made anti-stretchmark product. Oh...you know, created by Malaysians, tested in Malaysia, made in Malaysia?
It happens that the creator of these wonderful or should I say miracle products is a former colleague of my sister. She promoted it to my sister and I happened to be there as well. It wasn't really well known because her company is only set up in 2011. So, it's definitely new.

I happened to be a person who's not really interested or confident in local made skin care products especially when it's claiming to be the best or the first in the country. Not that I never tried any locally made things. When it comes to the skin, I only trust bigger brands where I'd seen their advertisements popping up everywhere. Things like these show that the company behind brand has that money power to do all kinds of clinical research etc. 

I know it isn't fair especially when a new brand is trying to rise and made itself known in this industry. I mean which product isn't? 

Anyways,  I didn't buy anything that day but I bought a set the following week in the month of February 2013 before Chinese New Year.
Reasons I bought them are;
1. The "big brand" doesn't work. My scars look exactly the same the day I bought them and not to mention repurchases I made.
Sometimes,  I would get 2 bottles in a single receipt from the pharmacy. And it's not cheap. Xxxml cost 80plus ringers.
I had that scar in 2011. So, you can bloody well imagine my disappointment when it looks the same after the money I had mindlessly showered on "big brand".

2.  a) It's her way of showing how much confidence and pride she has for her products.  
b) Her frustration when a customer isn't using the product consistently and those who have good results but are unwilling to do testimonials.

I do understand how important it is for a product to have a good testimony by its user. Without it, it would mean all talk no prove.So, she did make a deep impression. 

I promised Kak Zai my testimonials.  And she can use them whenever, wherever,  however she wants.

I'll just skip the progress and fast forward before and after picture. The image below clearly shows the difference,  isn't it?

What they call "Sabun Ketiak"

I was laughing when I saw that term. So, my first entry for this few days old blog is about a beauty bar called Marine Essence Beauty Bar, a product marketed by Hai-O Marketing Sdn Bhd. I'm sure many would know this company as it has retail outlets all over Malaysia mostly at AEON's premises (if I'm not mistaken). This product is not sold in its retail outlets but through its Multi-level Marketing company mentioned earlier.  Well, I'm not here to promote the company but the most talked about beauty bar.

Marine Essence Beauty Bar

How did I stumbled upon this product. A senior of mine published a photo of her fore finger (during the election) how clean her finger was after using this bar. So, that's where I get to know about the "Sabun Ketiak". Reading through the comments. My interest towards this beauty bar grew.

I have sensitive skin, I can't wear jeweleries, watches etc. Be it silver, gold, stainless steel or leather. My neck, wrist and ears would itch like they are having a party for the last time. I would automatically scratch. You see my skin is like an UFO (Unwelcoming Flying/Floating/Foreign Object) detector. They land, then my skin would send me deceitful messages so that I would scratch like there's no tomorrow and left me to suffer the consequences tomorrow. Yes, I scratch till the skin broke and sometimes bled. Yes, with my long nails.

*additional info: sometimes my skin has a problem with sweat.

So the kind of consequences I had to bear with are when these places I scratched decided to change into darker clothes. They turn dark.
Parts of the body that had suffered from my nails and scratches starting from head to toe.
  1. Neck (necklaces, scarves. SCARVES?? Yes, scarves, UFOs)
  2. Armpits (poor ventilation, deodorants, UFOs)
  3. Butt crack (poor ventilation from sanitary pads, the fact that I have big butt)
  4. Bikini line (poor ventilation, from triangular shaped panties)
  5. Inner thighs (big thighs mean no gap between my legs so it's poor ventilation)
  6. Back of my thighs (same reason as No. 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7, UFOs)
  7. Behind my knee and my calves (same reason as No. 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6, UFOs)
  8. Around the nose bridge, and my temple.
  9. My wrist and fingers are all good because I haven't been wearing watches, bracelets and rings for many years.
I guess I saved a lot of money then and any man who marries me will be the happiest man in the world because of this jewellery intolerant problem of mine. Well..more money saved.

So, this bar can help lighten uneven tone, and is possible to be a solution to my problem. If it can help those with eczema, why not this little problem of mine right? So, I decided to purchase it.
  

Unfortunately, I was told that this beauty bar is discontinued. Oh...foot it! Then, ...2 good news coming in. The company launched two new products of the same line. Marine Essence Nourishing Body Wash and Marine Essence Nourishing Shampoo.

So, I was told that the body wash has the same concentration as the beauty bar and it's in liquid form which means...easier for storage.
So, I bought both.


Today will be my 3rd day of using these two products but I'm more interested to know the result of the body wash. I think that will take weeks or months. Will update on the progress. Would it be too gross if I post the images of my abused armpits here?
I want to have an even skin tone for people to admire. Not for a graphic designer to refer at for colour shades. - whose? Tinky Tinkies 2013

Ps: I've tried a few other products that work well for me. Will share in the next entry. Plus images. I did a testimonial for her so I have my progress noted. It's the first Malaysian made anti-stretchmark product. Approved by KKM.
