3 Simple Steps to Pimple Free Skin

Pimples and acne are common teen skin problems especially when the skin is oily. The problem doesn’t stop there as acne scarring starts to surface with constant picking of pimples. Most teens would think the easiest solution to that is to constantly wash their face to get rid of the pimples. While washing the face may help to reduce pimples but it is not the perfect solution to the problem.

Combating pimples can be achieved with OXY’s 3 step regime; 
Step 1: Wash with Deep Cleansing Wash, 
Step 2: Treat pimples with OXY 10 and lastly 
Step 3: Lighten pimple mark with Anti-Pimple Mark Gel.

Suitable for acne prone skin, when used together, OXY’s Deep Cleansing Wash, OXY 10 and the Anti-Pimple Mark Gel helps to get rid of oil, dirt, impurities, treat pimples, lighten pimple marks while providing you with smooth, clean and pimple-free skin. Each of these products is formulated to tackle the root cause of the pimple problem starting with the Deep Cleansing Wash that removes impurities followed by the OXY 10 that treats pimples and finish with the Anti-Pimple Mark for a clear blemish-free skin. 

The OXY Deep Cleansing Wash contains Isopropyl Methylphenol and Salicylic Acid which help remove dead skin cells on the skin’s surface and also effectively remove impurities from deep within pores thereby unclogging pores to prevent pimples. Apart from cleansing, the Deep Cleansing Wash also soothes blemished skin and it’s not drying to the skin.

14 Things To Do @ IJM LAND Bandar Rimbayu Together-gather Big Fun Day

Last Sunday was a happening and wonderful day for my family, which we had enjoyed a Together-gather Big Fun Day at IJM Land Bandar Rimbayu. It was our first time visiting The Arc @ Bandar Rimbayu, Kota Kemuning. Our effort for the long journey (it was around 70 KM from Selayang to Bandar Rimbayu, and it took us 45 minutes in the smooth early Sunday morning using NKVE + ELITE highway) was well payoff. We love its greenery and spacious venue, plus plenty of free amusement and activities for the whole family.

Bandar Rimbayu is a premier township development by IJM Land, inspired nostalgia for a time when life was simple and people lived close to nature, in a safe and supportive neighborhood. Set in tranquil green surroundings on a 1,879 acre site, Bandar Rimbayu will be an iconic mixed development of residential, commercial, recreational and parkland components. With a gross development value of RM11 billion, Bandar Rimbayu will be an integrated township with residential, commercial and recreational components spread over four precincts: Flora, Fauna, Bayu and the Commercial Hub. 

Many of you have asked me what’s happening at Together-gather Big Fun Day after seeing my social media sharing, now let’s see what had we done on that day shall we?

1)      Urban Picnic – There’s no better way to picnic in the fresh air and greenery! The morning was kicked off with relaxing and chill urban picnic with the family, plus mingling with my blogger friends. We had the healthy breakfast thanks to the PR, and that bring us a pretty big smile in this group picture.

2)      Giant Bubbles – Who doesn’t love bubbles? I first played giant bubbles in Kaoh Siung City, Taiwan many years back. I’m glad that they are available in Malaysia now. My girl and I enjoyed playing it and seeing the bubbles flying up, up, away in the air.

3)      Water Zorb Ball – This is a cool water sport which is available at many places e.g. Titiwangsa and Putrajaya nowadays. The best part is, we could play it for FREE at IJM LAND Bandar Rimbayu Together-gather Big Fun Day! Thanks IJM Land for your hospitality and generosity!

Healthy Kids is Happy Kids - NANO Japan Biogenie Kids Booster

I’m gratitude to be a mother of two lovely girls. But I have a feeling that it’s getting more and more expensive to raise a kids over the years. Inflations, bad economy and moreover with the extremely expensive treatment fees charged by the professional pediatrician, we always find money is not enough.  And hence keeping the kids healthy in order to avoid doctor visits is always prudent.

Sadly, my elder daughter was born with weak immune system and hence she gets sick easily. She always catches a fever, cough and flu easily.

While my younger daughter is not as bad as the elder one, still she gets constipation easily due to her cravings for biscuits.

What’s more, with the haze and terrible weather (where the normal hot season has turned haywire to hot and cold in a day), my girls fall sick more frequently. Not only that, they have suffer from skin irritation and asthma sometime.

I have been feeding them supplements but it has not improved much, and hence I am always thinking of the ways to improve their health. I have been researching by joining some parenting forums and discussed about this topic with other parents. Recently, I was introduced to NANO Japan Kids Booster that’s call “Biogenie” by some mothers there. I checked the price is quite affordable so I ordered a few bottles to try.

Apparently NANO Japan Biogenie is the most advance and effective booster supplement for kids. According to the brand, it helps improves Gut Health (IMMUNE SYSTEM), Reduce Flu, Cough, HFMD, Inflammation, Constipation, Bacteria Infections. Eventually kids will be concentrating better and be more alert too.
