Berkata Baik Atau Diam

Assalamualaikum.

Any latest issue especially political news are always being sensation in media and the people themselves. With social media around, the news can be shared in just a blink of eyes. However, it would be even more sensation if we do not know the real story behind.

First, we might be sharing either fake or real news.

Second, we might be sharing either fake or real photos to support the news.

So have you ever bother to check the authenticity of the news before sharing?

Are you willing to bear the consequences if your sharing is fake?

Think wisely before you click OK for sharing.

Rezeki

Assalamualaikum.

Being a housewife is such a blessed gift to me. Alhamdulillah. I really enjoyed every moment with my children.

But some ignorant people are just too unhappy to see our happiness and keep buzzing me with issues about our rezeki. Perhaps they do not understand what rezeki is all about. Stop buzzing about us on how we manage to struggle in our life. We  have our own means and ways to find our own rezeki. In Shaa ALLAH. More rezeki means we can share more with others around us. 

Alhamdulillah. As what my husband used to tell me, "Rezeki hadir dalam pelbagai bentuk dan cara. Just keep silent. Let those people live with their own perception on us. As long as we are happy and our rezeki diberkati ALLAH SWT."

Malam Koperwanis Dinner

Assalamualaikum.

We are cousins. We are sisters. We grew up together. We played together. We shared our high and low together.

BB Cream

Assalamualaikum.

I received a lot of compliments on my skin lately. The truth is I don't even wear any foundation or compact powder. I just use BB cream with loose powder.

I stopped using foundation two years ago. Why? Because heavy makeup will block the skin pores. I noticed my skin is getting better after I stopped using it. I prefer BB cream instead.

What is BB cream? BB stands for Blemish Balms or Beauty Balms. It is popular as the all-in-one formulation and became a sensation in South Korea then spread throughout Asia. 

What are so great about BB? 

• good base for makeup like a primer
• even out complexion like a tinted moisturiser
• cover minor imperfections and redness like a concealer
• hydrate skin like day cream
• brighten up a dull complexion 
• some BB have SPF protection
• some even contains ingredients for healing, soothing and anti-ageing properties.

I've tried a lot of BB creams. My favourites? 

1. BB Cushion by Laneige and 

2. Luminous Glow BB cream by ER Essentials.

Just a bit of BB cream, a layer of loose powder, a hint of blusher and lip gloss will make wonders on my face. Less is more.

My Skincare Regime

Assalamualaikum.

Am very particular in skincare regime and I prefer simple but effective steps. So what brand do I use for my skincare. Honestly, I will change my skincare brand every five years. Mmm... sometimes every three years. Or even two years. Depends on my skin condition.

Have tried several brands before. Dermalogica, Shu Uemura, Christian Dior, Clinique, local skincare products, etc. 

Now am using KOSE Infinity skincare but as what I've mentioned, I prefer simple steps. From the following range picture, I only use:

• cleanser, 
• toner, 
• moisturizer, and 
• eye cream.

Career Woman VS Housewife

Assalamualaikum. There is always an issue when I'm around with families and friends. 

The bonus questions are:

1. DON'T YOU WANT TO WORK ANYMORE?

2. DON'T YOU WISH TO TEACH AGAIN?

My humble answers:

1. NO

2. YES

Honestly, I love to teach. I miss my teaching moments. So, please... I also have planning for myself. Listening to negative comments really taught me to be strong from inside. I seldom share my life experience with others so please do not underestimate my life. Have been in career life for ten years. 

If you are proud of your working experience, I also have my own working experience. If you think you work hard for living, others do have their own effort for their living as well. Just pay some respect and value others' effort to make their living better.
