Bye Dad, You will always live in my heart

Now I know the feeling when you lose someone that you love the most, someone that always be there for you, someone that really care for you, someone that willing to do anything for you...

In early October I lost my lovely Dad.. his condition suddenly dropped 4 months before, and many Doctors could not help much... Already tried our best to save him and bring him to get treatment abroad, but still, God already had plan for him. So I and my fam should let him go... in peace... :(

Sad, yes I still sad until now... I miss him badly... One thing that make me really really sad is that I was not beside him when he passed away. And he already asked me to visit him 1 week before, but I kept busy with my job. He was living out of town at that time.... it takes 1.5 hours by airplane to go there..

I think that he already knew that his time in this world was no longer anymore.

Cry, yes I still cry until now.... I can't hear his voice anymore, can't hug him anymore, can't debate with him anymore.

Funny, it's funny... He always mad with me when I did something bad , but now I miss it... really really miss it... now, only my hubby will get mad on me :(...

Happy for him, yes I am happy too.. .I believe that God gives him the very best peaceful place beside Him. I believe that he is not suffering again now. And God gave me the last chance to kiss his cheek 2 weeks before he went away.

Still feeling awkward, used to call him almost everyday... and sometime I feel that I haven't call him... and want to pick up my phone and give him a call..

His body is not right here anymore, but I know that he is living in my heart right now... all the memories with him will never be gone....I know that he will always be around me :)

Dad, I love you and really miss you... Kisses and hugs for you always...Rest in peace Dad ...

this picture was taken in Jan 23, 2011 on my wedding.. he was so healthy and happy, never knew that he was suffering from advance cancer that took his life 8 months later

Say that you love your Dad, Mom, Brother, Sister, and anyone that you love everyday, coz we never know when they will go away....

In Acne Remedy, Product Review

My Acne Remedy Series

Hi... remember my previous post, that my face has been breaking out badly since mid of Aug. I thought that it was caused by my doc's meds... think that those products are too harsh for my face, so my face skin overreacted to that products.

I started to read some articles about how to combat acne. Some says that, the break out can be caused by the acne product itself - except the hormonal problem, food. If it too harsh, it will not help you at all, instead, it can make your face become more sensitive, very dry, getting red, and the worst thing is that your acne is getting worse. Maybe it's not the best info that i got, but I think it inspired me to find other product that much gentle to my face. Until I found some reviews about this product : SEBAMED CLEARFACE. Some says that this product is very gentle for acne prone - sensitive skin. Besides that, it has the same pH value of 5.5 of healthy skin. The slightly acidic pH value of 5.5 prevents harmful bacteria from multiplying on the skin, thus protecting us from infections. Well, it encourages me to try this product.

1. Sebamed Clearface Antibacterial Cleansing Foam.

it states that :

- Effective antibacterial action with Montaline C40 (Montaline C40 is a foaming quaternised coconut oil and a polyvalent surfactant. In addition to its basic foaming properties it also acts as an easy- to - use thickening agent, a dermo-protecting agent, and a formula - protecting agent.)

- Panthenol soothes and regenerates the skin

- Improves complexion

- 100% soap and alkali free

- Removes excess sebum, dequamation and dirt particles without drying the skin.

I like this cleansing foam and use it every morning and night before sleep, very gentle on my skin. my skin feels very fresh and smooth.It does not make my skin dry.

2. Sebamed Clearface Clear Gel

it states :

- provides the skin with abundant moisture.

- cools and soothes the skin with allantoin and panthenol

- provides abundant moisture due to the valuable properties of hyaluronic acid and natural aloe barbadensis

- makes the skin smooth and supple

- stabilizes the skin's acid mantle with the pH value of 5.5

- provides biological protection against acne bacteria and prevents the formation of new pimples.

I use this thing after use the Sebamed Clearface Antibacterial Cleansing Foam. My sensitive skin was quite dry before. I always try to find kind of mild moisturizer that will help to moisture my sensitive dry skin. I'm happy with this Clear Gel. It helps to moisture my skin, and other thing that I like is that it calms my face skin , helps to reduce my redness, and my face does not break out after I use this.

3. Sebamed Clear Face Anti-Pimple Gel

Already review about this on my previous post.

what is said on the leaflet :

- it combats pimples and blackheads whilst caring for the skin

- Relieves inflammation and targets drying out the pimple

- Panthenol and allantoin support the healing and regeneration of the skin

- stabilizes the skin's acid mantle providing effective biological protection against the formation of new pimples

- it should be applied directly on pimples and inflamed pores. When necessary several times a day.

Well, it helps to cure my pimples. And you know what, I think it works well with my blackheads.

Love this thing!!!

I still try to find Sebamed Clearface Deep Cleansing Facial Toner. Really curious with this thing... Supposed to be used after using the cleansing foam. Kinda difficult to find the toner here :(

But anyway, my pimples start to go away now. And it seems help to reduce the redness on my face. The best part of it, my skin feels smooth right now... Love all of these products!

xoxo

In Acne Remedy, Clinique Spot Gel

Arrrgh Break Out Badly!!!!

hi fellas!!!

my face is breaking out badly lately... I don't know why, it might be caused by the junk food I ate

Well I'm trying to find the best acne remedy that will fix my face T.T

First one is Clinique anti-blemish solutions spot treatment gel

Said on the packaging :

Allergy tested. 100% fragrance free. Targeted treatment helps clear blemishes, calms, soothes, visibly reduces redness. Apply thin layer to blemish daily after cleansing skin. If needed and no dryness occurs, use for touch-ups throughout the day.

Ingredients : Alcohol denat, water,acrylates/c10-30 alkyl acrylate crosspolymer, hamamelis virginiana,laminaria saccharina extract, salicylic acid.

I like its quick dry gel and you can use it over you make up. But I don't know , I think that this product didn't work well to combat my acne. Seems that it only worked with the small one, moreover, though for the small acne, It still needs more than 1 day to get rid of it...

Second one is Oriflame Tea Tree Purifying Oil

Tea tree purifying oil contains high dosage of organic tea tree oil to naturally help soothed blemished skin.

Ingredients : isopropyl myristate, alcohol denat, paraffinum liquidum, leptospermum scoparium oil, melaleuca alternifolia leaf oil, limonene

I try this product to substitute my The Body Shop teatree oil, and I just joined as Oriflame member. So I would like to try its product.

Yes, it is good for small acne too. But I do not like the smell, smells like jackfruit. Makes me dizzy T_T . Overall I still like The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil.

Third one, Sebamed Clear Face Anti-Pimple Gel

Effective relief from pimples and blackheads while caring for the skin. Reduces inflammation and dries pimples out. Panthenol and allantoin support the regeneration of the skin. Stabilizes the skin's pH value of 5.5 and its acid mantle, which biologically counteracts pimple causing bacteria, preventing the development of new pimples.

Ingredients : Aqua, alcohol, glycerin, polysorbate 20, propylene glycol, panthenol , bisabolol, allantoin, hamamelis viriniana bark/leaf/twig extract, hydrolyzed silk, cucumis sativus fruit extract, chloroxylenol, caramel, sodium citrate, sodium carbomer, parfum, potassium sorbate, sodium benzoate.

I like this product. It clears up my pimple very fast. And it even works well for the big acne :) but of course need more time to combat the big acne! I'm still curious whether it works well with the blackheads or not ... uhmm let see...

Fourth one, Sari Ayu Mujizat Tolak Jerawat

This is local product from the well-known Martha Tilaar.

Ingredients: Water, Alcohol, Sulfur, Glycerin, Salicylic Acid, Zinc oxide, Camphor, Bentonite, Zinc Sulfate, Menthol, Alumunium Hydroxide, Gel, Allantion, Fragrance, CI 19140, CI 16255

I love this product, It also dries my acne very fast...Make sure you put it on the acne spot, cause it will dry your skin...it's very cheap also, around 1.5 USD :)
