Soothing Cleansing Milk by Sephora

After a long hiatus, I finally decided to install an app on my iphone so that it will be easy for me to update things on the blog. 

Yes. No more excuses, please. 

Alrightey. 

So back on track, yes. This post is a review on a product that I recently bought through local store last month from Sephora Outlet in IOI City Mall.

Sephora Cleansing Milk

I haven't buy any makeup remover (like for ages!) because I rarely use makeup plus was on lazy mood to put on anything onto my skin recently. 

But I decided to buy this as it may come in handy for me if I go for travelling. 

So I dont have to bring lotsa items in the luggage. 

Let see the item below.
  
Too lazy to take a picture of my own stuff, I just googled it up. Credited to Luxola website. 

The main reason why I pick it up in the first place was due to the dermatologically tested written on the bottle and the macadamia oil content inside it.

My skin has been pretty dry recently on the nose, cheeks and lower part of my face but at the same time, it produces lots of oil that sometimes makes it oily on selective area.

I guess the skin try to moisten itself by producing more oil. But it actually worsen the condition.

Probably this is all because of my fault too. I didnt realized that I was over the limit during the extraction process. 😔

Too much of whiteheads made me crazy! 😭 

Okay, so here we go. My first time cleansing with this product turned out pretty well. The cleansing lotion was light texture eventhough it seems like a bit oily when I rub it on my faceusong finger before continuing cleaning with the facial cotton. 

Like the name, it really soothes my skin after using it. I wash it with regular tap water and continue with my hydrating toner.  (but I would recommend you to use warm luke water for best result!)

 From my first try, the skin turned out supple and it really helped adding up moisture on my skin! High 5! 

It really suits me well!! Thank god because I bought a 200ml bottle kot! 😂 It will be a great waste if it is not suitable with my skin. 

It is a 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 product for me. 

Thank you Sephora for producing a good product that suits me well. 

Oh. It is a gentle milk cleanser but at the same time powerful enough to clean even your heavyduty makeup. Trust me. Because I have been using it twice without fail.

It completely cleansed off my waterproof benefit mascara and 20hr water proof  eyeliner from silkygirl. 

You dont have to work hard removing the makeup . Two pumps of it for eyes and another two for foundation removal.

But for light makeup, a total of two pumps will be just  enough to cleanse everything.

Thank you to macadamia oil, you ll get moist and supple skin after cleaning. Very refreshing and soothing indeed. 

Up till now, no new breakouts yet after using it. So it is gonna be in my must have item list! 

Lovin' it much! 😘😘😘
 
Again, thank you Sephora! It is worth the buy! 😁 yeayy!

Overall review is as below:
  1. Lotion type: milky light texture
  2. Benefit: makeup removal plus hydrating
  3. Removal strength: 4/5
  4. Hydration: 4.5/5
  5. Applicable for skin type: sensitive, dry, combination.  **For oily skin, need to add up with regular facial wash to avoid skin becoming oily.
  6. Value for money: 4/5
Definitely a must have item for me while travelling. 👌

I think that is all for now. More product review will come as I have recently bought some skincare and makeup items. 🙊🙊🙊

Thanks to year end, all my favourite websites are now putting up sale! Crazzyyy sales. 

Can't stop scrolling over products 😭😭 it is so addictive 😅

Hopefully this review can help you guys who are in the midst of buying new cleansing milk! 

Till we meet again in the next post!

The Morning Routine

I am not really a morning person to begin with. But after being a wife, it starts to change slowly.

Not really sure how it works, but I guess it starts off with planting the idea of waking up early (definitely for fajar prayer & ) to make breakfast, weeks before I get married to the love of my life.

My husband aka Encik Abang, is a morning person. But not on weekdays. Lol. He actually needs to get up at 6 o'clock in the morning so that he wont be rushing around getting himself ready to work. Probably because he doesn't want to go to bed early which results in the stretching of his sleeping time.

Okay, so my husband gets up at 6.30 in the morning and will probably busy with himself until 6.50. I need to prepare the breakfast within the time frame.

So that he will have his breakfast at 6.50 til 7.00 or 7.05. Ideally it should be 6.45 til 6.50 am but never mind. We can always improve next time.

At first, I thought if I make breakfast first, thinking that it can be done at 6.45, so that I wont feel guilty to my husband since I can only wake up at 6.30 in the morning. But I was wrong.

Delaying fajar to make a breakfast was really a bad idea. But I didnt realized that up until a month.

You, know the keberkatan and all, I do feel as if Im losing it day by day. But thinking that maybe  it  can be covered up with sunnatul taubah & dhuha, I shuusshh the thinking away from my head and buried the unease feelings deep inside me.

But Allah is the Almighty and Most Merciful.

One morning, I get up 10 minutes early. 6.20 am. And I decided to pray fajar first before starting to cook for breakfast.

It was then, the feeling of ease comes to me when I started to cook (eventhough I only managed to finish cooking at 6.50) as if I am doing the rightful thing.

And because I feel so ease, everything went smoothly. Even the food taste better and more delicious. Ahah.

So the lesson learned now is no matter how rush you are at the moment, learn to put the first thing first in the priority list. Even if it means it might jeopardize someone a lil bit like in this case, my husband. But trust me, it wont. 

After all, time is His servant too isnt it? 😁

Pengurusan Emosi

It has been a while.

Dah berhabuk rasanya blog ni tak ber-update post nya. Kadang-kala ada juga idea nak menulis. Tapi bila dah depan laptop, tak terkeluar ayatnya.

Sindrom writer's block kot. eheh.

Let's pick a topic. Saya cuma ada masa 30 minit saja untuk menulis satu post, Mudah-mudahan bermanfaat untuk semua sebagai renungan.

Dalam hidup kita, tidak semua yang kita dapat itu adalah yang kita minta. Sometimes they didn't even occured in our head in the first place. Tapi kita dapat. Dengan mudahnya. Macam Petik jari. Voila! You get it straight away.

Tapi itu lah benda yang kita took for granted.

Akhir-akhir ni saya banyak bertanya diri sendiri, betul ke benda ni penting dalam hidup? Kalau tak dapat, mati tak? Kalau tak ada, cacat tak kehidupan? Apa yang cacat kalau tak dapat benda ni?

Sangat susah untuk membezakan antara keperluan dan kemahuan.

Tapi satu benda saya belajar ialah, kalau kecacatan itu sekadar kecacatan emosi (rasa tak gembira) kemungkinan besar, it is replaceable.

BANYAK benda yang sebenarnya MAMPU untuk ganti sesuatu yang kita tak dapat tu. even BETTER. Tapi sebab hati kita dipegang oleh emosi, kita RASA macam dah nak mati dah kalau tak dapat.

Sedangkan yang buat kita betul-betul mati ialah bila tak ada oksigen! Tapi tak pernah kisah pun sebab kita tahu oksigen selalu ada untuk kita.

Cuma kita lupa, oksigen tu makhluk Allah jugak.

Kot Allah kata, "Hari ni kau tak payah masuk saluran pernafasan si fulan bin si fulan."

Manggagaulah time tu tak boleh bernafas.

Ok, maaf untuk analogi hyperbola tahap maksima di atas. Saja guna supaya senang sikit nak faham.

 The grass always look greener on the other side. ALWAYS. Sebab kita melihat dari luar, tak masuk lagi kat tempat tu. Entah-entah masalah lagi banyak dan teruk dari tempat yang kita berada sekarang.

Who knows?

Ada sebab kenapa Allah letak kita di sesuatu tempat/situasi. First, it was our choice because we decide it in the first place.

Second, because He wants us to learn something and be a better servant.

Hadap benda tu, dan selesaikan dengan BAIK. Sebab in the end, Allah tak tanya pun berjaya ke tak. Allah tanya HOW did you do it.

Nampak tak kat situ Allah tak pandang pun kejayaan kita. It is not about the result. It is about how well we did it. Sebab usaha itu adalah hak dan bahagian kita yang Allah bagi 100% tak usik apa pun.

Tapi keputusan itu adalah urusan Allah. Dia yang pegang & putuskan untuk kita. Kalau benda ni sebenarnya tak bagus pun untuk kita, Allah mungkin gagalkan. Dan Dia bagi benda lain yang jauh lebih baik.

Macam tak boleh nak hadam? Its okay. Kalau kita percaya Allah itu Maha Berkuasa dan percaya bila Allah kata jadi, maka jadilah, then you should trust Allah is the BEST planner.

Sekarang tak dapat nak faham hikmah/kebaikan/point. sooner or later insha Allah kita akan nampak asbabnya/kesannya.

Just remember, semua ilmu kat dunia ni, hanya setitis saja dari selautan ilmu yang ada. dari setitis tu, mungkin 0.00000009% je ilmu yang kita ada, so of course la tak semua benda/kejadian/perkara kita akan dapat faham straight away.

At the age of nearly 3 series ni, I think my level of maturity still not at par with the age. Banyak benda kena belajar lagi especially tentang time management. Thinking about life after marriage terus rasa nervous.

I hope I can get through marriage life with happiness and increase maturity and more positive and improved personality/character. Allahumma Amin.

In shaa Allah.
