Tits-a-bits

Life's been treating me very well lately, and i'm certainly thankful for that. Life has changed so much ever since i quit my job. I'm really glad that i don't need to work on shift anymore.

Here are some pictures that i took when i went Bali. It was such an amazing trip and of course a good break from work. New career have started and going so well for me. Sales definitely has gone up and I just need to put a little bit more effort to push for more. I am foreseeing myself in ten years time, hopefully, it will be like what i have been imagining now, everyday. 

Looking back and sometimes I wonder, how situation will be if I don't have the courage to make changes in my life? Will I be happily married? Will i get into depression? Or will life be better? 

Well, of course, it's just a thought. I'm sure everyone will ponder at times thinking about the past or the future. I'm not saying that I don't love my life now. In fact, I am very thankful to have everything, family, friends, career and i can vouch that i am 90% happier compared to my past. 

I have grown, maturity they call it. I'm aware of whats happening and be sensible to not just my needs but emotional needs for my partner, family and friends.

I have not changed in many other ways, as i'm still as playful as before. I love laughing and smiling, always. Maybe i should really cut down on the teasing. ok.Yes. I should.

I miss my beautiful niece Charmaine, very much like me, cheeky and mischievous. Thank God my sis is expecting again! I'm praying hard that i will have a nephew real soon:). Then, Charmaine will not be so lonely at home:). Ahh, sometimes I wish i can have my own kids too. I love kids and I will definitely be a wonderful mom, just like my own mom!

Actually I do have a 'son', my little Shiro! time flies and Shiro turned one year old on the 21st may. 

Look how much Shiro have grown? He got really big compare to before. And louder definitely. 

I'm excited as Japanese lesson gonna start real soon and sooner or later I get to read more Japanese magazine! And not just that, being able to speak Japanese allows me to expand my business as well. I'm really looking forward to it!  

I wanna end my post with this beautiful song:) . And i'm recording it for sure. 

New obsession

 Black & White.

Skinovation with Shirobi

There are many ways to keep your skin looking and feeling young. One of them is by using collagen . It is important though, to know the ingredients of the products that you apply onto your face. But instead of just applying, why not make is easier by just consuming them instead of applying them on your face everyday. What is Collagen and what does it really do to your skin?

Collagen is a protein substance found in our skin.This protein substance is most available on your nails, hair and skin. Collagen keep your skin moisturised and prevent water loss. However, in order to actually know what collagen does for your skin, it is important for you to understand as well what it does to your skin and what it is made up of.

 Well, finally i took up the courage to blog about my skin. I took a few pictures about a month ago after shower and to my surprised when i compared it with some of the pictures i took today in the morning after my skin care products. I wouldn't say that my skin is perfect now but i definitely see some improvement.

No photoshopping and no nothing for this set of photos, so you can see everything!

Having wrinkles, sagging skin and other signs of aging is due to the lack of collagen cells as it also loses its elasticity. Since the composition of collagen is quite large to get into the dermis layer of the skin and to be absorbed by the body, it does not replenish or strengthen the collagen structure of your skin. It merely stays on the surface of your skin and gets washed away when you take a bath. It has been said that it makes wrinkles disappear, but this notion has not yet been proven by collagen creams and other skin firming lotions.

I used to have really bad eye bags and dark circle as well before this. Skin tone looked dull and my face shape is uneven. Even with loads of hydration masks and moisturizer, my skin just doesn't look dewy and firm. yep. i know i looked awful without make up. i couldn't really leave the house without tinted sunblock to cover up my eye bags and also to even up my skin tone.

And so that was a month ago , and I was really happy looking into the mirror today. I see a difference like on my complexion condition, supple, fairer and doesn't really look like a zombie in the morning especially the minute right after you got out from bed. Okay and of course people will say pictures are deceiving and so n-so-n-so.. i guess seeing (me in person) is believing.

Same goes for this set of pictures, no photoshopping and same lighting and angle as well. Although my eye bags are still visible at this point of time but the color has lighten so much more compare to before.

Collagen has a consistency that changes with heat and before being bottled into different products, has to go through chemical processes and high temperature These processes disentangles the helix structure of collagen making it unusable to humans if ever it gets into the inner layer of the skin.

I have blemishes due to sensitive skin and i get hives and rashes easily. I don't get to use most of the products that are available out there in the market. Hmm after trying out so many other product that seem to be beneficial for others but not me somehow made it very difficult for me to get the right product. I would advise to try to minimise skin care products to like what is essential only to your skin.

For healthier skin, try to put hydration mask like at least once or twice a week. Facial treatment to clear of pores and scrub are essential. Don't take our youth for granted, remember. 

Here's an extra-large-closed-up photo on my skin. I am amazed..I have to declare that I didn't not use any whitening product at all. Now i have very even skin tone, very minimal blemishes, and my skin is hydrated at all time. Do you realize that my creases /wrinkles at the corner of my eyes reduced as well?

Taking care of your skin and ensuring that you would avoid pre-mature aging is still better. As they say, prevention is better than cure. When situations are irreversible though, there are other natural options than collagen creams that you can opt for. Check on the Internet for more information or better yet, ask your dermatologist before buying or using any collagen creams. I may sound like I'm promoting my own products here but I've tried it myself to believe in my own products and of course to feel as a consumer point of view. No hard selling here, but just never try never know. 

Just a bottle a day, keeps my skin better each day.

Fickle, yes, fickle

I'm blogging at this hour because i couldn't sleep. why? a very simple reason. bags. i have been searching for spring summer 2013 latest fashion and i found lotsa pictures of Chanel bags. 

Oh boy! Chanel! yes. Boy Chanel.

Somehow all these while I've never like Chanel bags, maybe because I couldn't afford it. But the latest collection design was ugh, mad love. I have never felt the need to acquire one of the brand's bag until Boy Chanel made their debut. I got so turned on and I have to admit that I've been hooked.

i finally took up the courage to search for my Boy Chanel. This is my current obsession and honestly the Chanel Boy bags from Resort 2013 collection might be the est collection that I've seen to date. Not to sure after reading this post makes you a Boy convert or you're still on the fence, check out the bags, trust me they are too good to miss.

And apart from that I'm in the midst of looking for a daily casual bag. I wanted something for work appointments and as well as something casual enough for me to carry for nights out after that.

 So, I went to MiuMiu yesterday and found the Matelasse was alright. Since the bag has top handles and comes with a sling as well, i see no reason for me not to get this bag actually, plus this Matelasse Lux Sacca Con Pattina only left one over at Paragon outlet.Why.. Why.......... I fell in love with the color . 

Since Prada was just next door and I've always been looking out for their Nappa Gaufre bags, i came across the saffiano lux for the first time. Solid , everlasting design but interesting colors. 

I particularly interested in BN1801 and i found out that they have it in Orchidea, but in France. Anyone flying to France soon? I guess this would be puuuurrrrfect for me to get it as my daily bag.

Help.
