Lunch Date with Sarah Cowan (Managing Director of The Herb Farm)

I was honoured to meet the person behind The Herb Farm organised by TNS Skin Lab not long ago. The lunch date was set at Fat Olive at Verve Suite, Mont Kiara – a charming restaurant that serves really delicious food. A big thanks to TNS Skin Lab for choosing this cosy place. 
Founded by Lynn; mother of Sarah Cowan, The Herb Farm is a New Zealand company that has been making 100% pure natural products at their own farm for many years now.
When I first met Sarah Cowan, I can't believe she is a mother of two as she is so beautiful, tall and skinny just like a model on the runway. My guess is she must be practicing a good lifestyle and skincare regime to look good, young and confidence.
Sarah Cowan has shared some of her tips over the lunch. Then, the fun part arrived. She has taught us how to make a natural skincare product hands-on. We all got to make our very own essential oil cream that we can apply anytime to lift our mood, yay!

[Facial Review] TNS Skin Lab Facial Spa & Showroom

I’m a beauty junkie that would go for facial every month. Facial is an essential beauty rituals for me not only to nourish my skin but also to relax my mind and soul.

I have noticed the newly opened TNS Skin Lab Facial Spa & Showroom on TNS Skin Lab's instagram account last year. Since I am a fans of the brands and products that TNS Skin Lab brings to us, I decided to give TNS Skin Lab Facial Spa a try not long after the CNY festive. My skin was really tired and dull due to the late night gatherings during CNY celebrations and hence I needed a facial treatment badly.
Located at Wisma Rapid, Desa Sri Hartamas (Nearby Souled Out Hartamas), there were plenty of car parks available during my visit on a weekday's afternoon. I took the lift to the 3rd floor where TNS Skin Lab Facial Spa & Showroom located. Once stepped into the showroom, I can see the neat and tidy showroom that display all the products from different brands that are exclusively available at TNS Skin Lab.
I was served with a cup of tea while filled in the customer form upon arrival. The therapist has also tried to analyse my skin type to decide what facial should I go for. Not long later, I was led to the private room for my facial treatment.
The therapist started the facial with double deep cleanse with Clarisonic, and then she used a 'face vacuum' for exfoliation and extraction, followed with gentle facial and shoulder massage, apply face mask and the finishing treatments routine. My skin was nourished and it glows from within after the treatment, love it!

It's Never Too Early or Too Late for Good Oral Healthcare This World Oral Health Day

This World Oral Health Day, Philips Malaysia is encouraging Malaysians of all ages to develop and maintain good oral healthcare habits. Oral disease affects 3.9 billion people worldwide1 and untreated tooth decay impacts almost half of the world’s population (44%). Meanwhile in Malaysia, studies found that only 27.8% of the population visited a dentist in the span of one year, while as many as 37.0% of the population had never received oral healthcare2.
“This World Oral Health Day, we want families to take charge of their oral health to prevent oral diseases, thus protecting their general health. Good habits, such as brushing twice a day for two minutes, are so important in looking after your mouth, teeth and gums. Sixty to ninety per cent of schoolchildren and almost all adults suffer from tooth decay worldwide3, so it is more important than ever to instil good brushing routines early on in life. At Philips, we want to encourage preventive healthcare habits with our Sonicare innovations, which can lead to better long-term oral health, and very importantly, better overall health and wellness,” said Muhammad Ali Jaleel, Country Manager, Personal Health and Health Systems Leader for Philips Malaysia.

Sugar is a leading risk factor for tooth decay, and 60% to 90% of schoolchildren worldwide have dental caries.4 Tooth decay is the most common disease in children and has a significant impact on a child’s health and wellbeing. Like other bacterial infections, tooth decay can worsen if left untreated.

[Review] Cosmetic Lens from Barbie Eyesland

As a person facing laptop everyday, I have Short sight and it leads to blurred distance vision since I was teenager. And as a person that is into beauty, I have been wearing contact lenses for many many years now.

I have tried many brands over the years. And I fell in love with cosmetic lens for the recent years. Reason is simple, they are pretty to wear and my eyes look bigger with it instantly.

[Review] Murad Age Invisiblur Perfecting Shield Broad Spectrum SPF 30 PA+++

It is a non-comedogenic, colorless hybrid primer that made from skin-perfecting blend of mushroom peptides treats as Soft-Focus Complex primes for up to 12 hours of flawless makeup wear, visibly reducing the appearance of pores, fine lines and uneven texture.

[Review] Murad City Skin™ Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++

Looking for a mineral sunscreen with high SPF? Murad City Skin™ Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ is here for us.

We all know that sunscreen is important in order to protect the skin from the harmful effects of the sun. With the continuous usage of sunscreen, it helps to prevent sunburn and premature aging like wrinkles, leathery skin. However, it is also important to choose a good sunscreen. There is chemical sunscreen and mineral sunscreen available in the market. As for myself, I will always choose the later because mineral sunscreen use active mineral ingredients, such as zinc oxide and titanium oxide that is safe to the skin. They reflect the sun’s rays like a mirror to protect exposed skin.
Murad City Skin™ Age Defense Broad Spectrum SPF 50 PA++++ is a mineral sunscreen that comes with high SPF protection to protect our skin from UV rays for hours. It contains Vitamin C that helps brighten skin, even tone, and correct sun damage.
Murad has tested and proves that the ingredients are safe for sensitive skin and the formula is fragrance free, it is safe for eye area too. The best part is, it has a lightweight formula works well on all skin tones and absorbs quickly into the skin with no ashy residue unlike other mineral sunscreens. It leaves a luminous, pearlized finish which works well under makeup or worn alone. A soft peach tint helps color correct skin to immediately boost radiance and even tone.

Bonjour, allez-vous bien? Do you know what's this means? It means 'Hello, how are you?' in French. Don't worry, I am not going to teach you French today, but I would love to share a not-to-be missed festival with you. Le French Festival(LFF) is back for the 18th edition this 2019. LFF is a highly-anticipated annual French event held here in Malaysia for us to experience with captivating events. There are full of activities lined-up including French Cinema screenings, art exhibitions, music and theatre performances, gastronomy and so much more.
Since its inception in 2001, LFF has progressively evolved as an indomitable bridge of cultural exchange between France and Malaysia while successfully establishing its roots in four major cities, reaching over tens of thousands of spectators namely Kuala Lumpur, Penang, Johor Bahru and Kota Kinabalu.
Le French Festival 2019 will be held from 4th Apr 2019 to 12th May 2019.

Savour The Taste of The Scottish Highlands

Founded in the late 1800’s, the Tomatin whisky distillery sits at an altitude of 315 metres above sea level just to the west village of the same name and quenches its annual five million litre capacity with the pure waters of the Alt-na-Frith burn. Although it is one of the largest distilleries around, it is still relatively unknown to the outside world.

The name of Tomatin is translated as ‘the hill of the juniper bush’ from Gaelic. The soft waters of the Alt-na-Frith (Free Burn), the distillery’s private water source, which runs clear and pure through the Monadhliath Mountains help to create a Highland Malt with delicate flavours, yet rich and mellow style.
Winner of several notable awards, the Tomatin 12 Year Old is smooth and silky, having been matured in traditional Scotch Whisky, ex-Bourbon and ex-Spanish casks. A rich, fruity aroma hits the nose first which is a prelude to sweet flavours of ripe apples, pears and a subtle hint of nut before the long, pleasantly oily finish. On the palate, this is a very pleasant whisky. It’s malt-forward, with plenty of spice. It’s smooth, but not dull; tasty without a hint of peat.
