Old School: Heard Of Bedak Sejuk?

Posted on September 19, 2010 by plue

Happy Sunday!

The week just zoomed by, didn’t it? Already it’s mid September! Hope everyone has been doing well!

Today it’s a bit of an old school stuff, not sure if you have ever heard of it or even used it. The younger generations might not be familiar with this, but I am! LOL! I feel pretty old lately!

For the Chinese, heard of “Sui Fan”? And my Malay friends, what about “Bedak Sejuk”? Or just let me translate it loosely, Bedak = Powder, Sejuk = Cold. There we have it, Cold Powder. But weird though, the “Sui” means Water, “Fan” means Powder, so it’s Water Powder? Weird right?

But anyway, it’s actually made of rice, with pandan leaves and fresh floral fragrance, and contains no chemical. I am not sure if what they claim about no chemical added is being true, but I’ll leave it as that. Continue reading →

OMO!

Mid May already, where when how my time flew by and I didn’t know?

OMO! DOUBLE OMO!

Sorry, am in a Korean boys craze, so erm, yeah, you’d be seeing a few Korean phrases or sentences or words in here… LOL. Bear with me, will try to get better soon? Ye?

Okay, back to my review.

3 months ago (Gasp! That long already!), lovely people from SkinMD Natural contacted me, wanting me to try out their star product, and of course being the skincare junkie, I definitely said yes!

And then after waiting for quite a while (The postal system sucks when there’s a big celebration, IE Chinese New Year), I thought I won’t be getting it, so I emailed SkinMD telling them I think it’s lost, and oh my, they send out another one immediately without questions asked! OMO! The service they provide, seriously, Malaysia’s PR/ Customer service should learn from them.

Anyway, I received my 1st bottle which I thought was missing after 2 months of waiting, and then my 2nd one came in shortly after the 1st one came. =_= Weird postage system my country has.

Etude House Aqua Sherbet Aloe Ampoule

I had been wanting to review this for ages, but never really gotten around it. Finally when I wanted to review it, Ning also requested for it. Better do it fast ’cause I don’t know when I’m gonna be lazy and stop writing again!

Long story cut short, this is a product which is meant for dry skin. Aloe vera, as we know, it’s well known for it’s softening and hydrating properties. In the olden days, me mum used to cut aloe veras that she planted at home, and apply it on her skin. It calms her skin and left her skin soft and well hydrated. Well, that’s what she told me anyway. I can’t say it works for everyone because I think most people now don’t it anymore, neither do I!

I don’t have aloe veras now at home, so if I wanna use them, I’ll need to get skincare that contains them!

I bought this last year and have been pretty happy with it ever since.
