SK ii Facial Treatment Essence and Facial Treatment Gentle Cleanser

2012-12-31T20:24:00.001-08:00

I'm so tired to try and keep trying skin care that can lighten or get rid of my freckles. Finally i make an decition to try SK-II skin care. Firstly, I just try the Facial Treatment Essence and the

Facial Treatment Gentle Cleanser. The benefits of this Facial Treatment Essence are texture refinement, Firmness power, wrinkle resilience, and sport control. Some people said it is a miracle water or holy water, what ever they call it for me its really miracle. I really like it. It works for me at the first time apply it on my face. I can feel my skin become smooth, more radiant, and less oily.

Facial Treatment Gentle Cleanser cares the skin while it cleanses. It contains Concentrated Pitera and Mild Treatment that leaves the skin hydrated even 30 minutes after cleansing. Work up a fine textured lather and enjoy its mild rose scent. The benefits of this Facial Treatment Gentle Cleanser are texture refinement, firmness power, wrinkle resilience, sport control, and radiance enhancement. This cleanser can not clean my make up, its not suit for cleans make up. So may be I need to try another SK-II celanser which is can remove and clean my make up. Every morning I use BB Cream to cover up my freckles and i need to find a cleanser that totally can clean the BB Cream. After wake up in morning off course I will use this cleanser because at night time I didnt use any make up.

Now I will stop keep trying other skin care, and continuously using this SK-II Skin Care. I like it.

SKIN FOOD Extra Virgin Olive Essence & Pomegranate Scalp Care Tonic

2012-07-19T22:53:00.002-07:00

Extra Virgin Olive Essence

Hair care is important as skin care. This is why I select the right types of shampoo, I also use a hair serum/essence for the ends of my hair. I bought this hair essence from Skin Food Suria Sabah. I must say, I am actually quite impressed by the result, especially since Skin Food isn't a brand that exclusively specialists in hair care products.

It looks green on the outside but that's just packaging. The oil itself is colourless, like ant other hair oil. It contains well-refined extra virgin olive oil, which is extremely well absorbed by my towel-dried hair and does not leave behind a residue. Once applied, I don't get oil remaining on my palms and neither does my hair feel oily afterward, just silky smooth ends. I apply this once in the morning. The oil smells good but the fragrance does not last long. The bottle is made of plastic so you don't have to worry about breaking it.

It also contains a polymer silicone complex that makes dry and frizzy hair lustrous and silky smooth. I strongly recommend this product to those who do not like the hair look greasy.

Pomegranate Scalp Care Tonic

I have hair fall recently so i need hair tonic to promote more hair growth. I have tried many hair tonic before and I found that this Skin Food's tonic is different from other which is the fragrance does not last long on scalp. I hope that after use this tonic my hair doesn't fall again and help promote hair growth.

Rice Mask Wash Off

The rice mask wash off is my gift, the sales girl gave it free to me because I bought their products more than RM100. Thank to Suria Sabah Skin Food for provided such promotion. This rice not only gave plenty of moisture but also brighten my skin as well. This gently rice mask feeling as real rice lifts off any excess dirt and oil leaving skin smooth and clear. It not dry or tight feeling after washing.

After washing my face i applied it onto my face, focusing on nose area while avoiding eye and mouth areas, and leave it on face around 10 to 15 minutes and then wash off. I guarantee that after washing your face you will feel your face become more smooth and soft

When You Don't Get What You Want

2012-07-03T23:28:00.000-07:00

LIFE is not a bed of roses. The sentence 'and they live happily ever after' probably exists only in fairly tales. For every success story that we read or heard about, there are countless failures that we don't. We live in a society that glorifies winners and all the positive rewards that come with it.

What about those who didn't make it? We don't really heard very much about them, right? Failing is a lonely affair. After all, who wants to be associated with losers? Society's obsession with success has created a divide between the successful overachievers and the perennial losers.

Since young we were taught to work hard in order to be successful. Students who were academically weak were usually labelled with all sorts of tags such as dumb, stupid, lazy, slow, impossible, etc.

I too, had been given a label when I was still in primary one. I went to a Chinese school and since I didn't speak any Chinese Language back then, naturally I could't understand my teacher's instructions. So, out of frustration, she said "Why are you so stupid poor student?" in Hakka to me.

And since I couldn't understand a word in Hakka either, I just nodded my head at her like a little puppy, desperate to make his owner happy. It was only later that I realised what my teacher's words meant. But I'm glad that my young mind didn't understand her back then. I guess that was a classic case where ignorance turned out to be a blessing.

Well, to every person reading this who has ever failed before in life, I would like to share with you a quote. "Success is never final. Failure is never fatal." Failure is only fatal when we allow it to kill our spirits. Have you ever come across someone who has given up on himself and others after he encounters a failure in life? he becomes cynical and looks at life through the lens of contempt and anger. Like a person lost in the sea, he is quick to look for life support such as a floating log to cling on to. In this case, it is someone of something to blame.

Blaming is like drugs. It is addictive. once someone starts the blame game, it is very difficult to stop. This is because blaming is so much easier compared to taking action.

Some people felt that his/her father/mother was the reason for his/her lack of success in life due to his/her past. When things got hard, you started looking for something to blame. Like a Big shadow. Let me tell you something you already know. The worlds ain't all sunshine and rainbows. It's a very mean and nasty place and I don't care how tough you are it will beat you to your knees and keep you there permanently if you let it.

You've gotta hit as hard as life. It isn't about how hard you hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward. How much can you take and keep moving forward? That's how winning is done.

If you know what you're worth, go out and get what you're worth. But you gotta be willing to take the hits. And not pointing fingers saying you aren't where you wanna be because of him or her or anybody. Cowards do that and that ain't you. You're better than that.

We have to get over the fear of failure if we are ever to taste the fruits of success. For me in order to succeed, your desire for success should be greater than your fear of failure. It takes a lot of inner strength to stand up in the face of failure and defeat and fight your way to success. But it can be done. In fact we each owe it to ourselves to do it for no one is responsible for our lives and success apart from ourselves.

Blamers think their lives will improve once their circumstance change. They blame others for their lack of success and happiness in life. But the sad truth is nothing will change unless the blamer first changes his ways. Rather than blame circumstances that are beyond his control, he should take responsibility and full accountability for all that he has or doesn't have in life.

When we take personal responsibility and accountability, we take charge of our life. When we play the blame game, we delegate that duty to whomever or whatever it is that we are blaming. And as stated earlier, no one else is more responsible for our success and happiness in life than us.

A few years age when I was going through a rough patch in my life, I started playing the blame game. I blamed the God, my parents, and others. Actually, I was feeling frustrated about being stuck in a rut. But did all the blaming makes me feel any better? Of course not. In fact, the more I thought about the situation, the more I laid blame on others, the worse I felt. I was quickly descending into a negative downward spiral.

However, one day something I heard from a CD changed me. I would like to share it here with you. Mr. Jacky Chen, a Taiwanese success said, "When I don't get what I want in life, that's simply because I am going to get something even better."

I meditated upon those words day and night. The more I thought about it the more positive I felt about myself because I realized that the rough patch I was going through was only temporal. Instead of blaming others or even myself, I started to be hopeful about the bright future that was awaiting me. All that remained for me to do was to concentrate on living my life to the best I could one day at a time.

Please don't get me wrong. I still had to work hard to turn my life around. After all, this is not a magic spell. However, when I discarded the habit of blaming others for the condition of my life that I was in, the decision look away all the burden from my shoulders. It freed me up to pursue my happiness in life.

Everyone encounters failure in one way or another. The key is what you do with it. Will you allow it to hold you back or will you turn it into your launch pad. Only you can make that decision. I will leave you with a quote, "Whatever happens, take responsibility."

Meaning Of Mole

2012-06-08T23:19:00.000-07:00

The Meanings Of Mole

The Chinese believe moles can be lucky or unlucky depending on where they are located, what colour they are, and how large they appear in proportion to our body. A mole can be a tiny black speck on the feet signifying opportunities for travel, or it can be a dark red dot on the hand, often interpreted as indicating a particular skill or luck associated with one's hands. Moles on our backs denote some kind of burden we have to carry, while moles at the front of our bodies are said to attract success luck. This issue we offer this special feature on moles based on information from the Tung Shu and other Taoist sources. If you have ever wondered what that mole on your neck, back or thigh means, read on

THE FACE

Position 1 to 3
As a child, you are somewhat rebellious and a free spirit. You have an innate creativity and work best when you are given a free hand. Generally, your superiors like your avante garde approach to life. If you have a mole here, you are far better off in business and being your own boss rather than working for somebody. What is promising is that you have the luck to be your own boss.

Position 4
You are an impulsive person, often acting with a flamboyance that gives you charisma and a sparkling personality, but you can be difficult when there are too many opinions. You tend to be rather argumentative, but never to the point of holding grudges. This mole tends to give you an explosive temper and should you decide to remove it, you will find yourself becoming calmer and more at peace with the world.

Position 5
A mole above the eyebrow indicates that there is wealth luck in your life, but you will need to earn it and work harder than most people. All the income you make must be carefully kept as there are people who are jealous of you who might attempt to sweet talk you into parting with your wealth. Be wary of those who try to interest you in get-rich-quick schemes. If you have a mole here, it is advisable not to be too trusting of others. Follow your instincts and be cautious. And never allow other people to control your finances.

Position 6
mole here indicates intelligence, creativity and skill as an artist. Your artistic talent can bring you wealth, fame and success. It also indicates wealth luck, but this can only be fully realized if you follow your heart rather than stick to conventional means of making a living. Success will come if you are brave.

Position 7
Moles under the eyebrows indicate arguments within the extended family that cause you grief and unhappiness. This will affect your work and livelihood. It is advisable to settle any differences you have with your relatives if you want peace of mind to move ahead.

Position 8
This is not a very good position for a mole. Your financial position will constantly be under strain because of a tendency to overspend. You also have a penchant for gambling. The only thing is you must know when to stop. Meanwhile, someone with a mole here has a tendency to flirt with members of the opposite sex as well as with the same sex. Better be a little discerning where you exert your charms, or you might get into trouble.

Position 9

Top 10 Ways to Increase Your Chances of Having Twins

2012-03-12T01:38:00.002-07:00

Many people wonder what it takes to have twins, triplets or more. While having multiples is sometimes an act of fate, parents of multiples say some common factors increased their chances of conceiving them. Most of these are not scientifically proven but rooted more in tradition or personal experience. The following are some influences readers say led to their bigger broods. Have thoughts on why you had multiples??

Keep in mind too, that if you're hoping to have multiples, you should be aware of the risks and complications associated with a multiple pregnancy including prematurity.

1. Have a History

Do twins run in your family?? If you have a mother, brother, sister, uncle or long lost cousin with multiples, you may wonder if you'll have them too. Sometimes twinning is hereditary, it's true. However, there also in some cases. If your mother or maternal grandmother was or had fraternal twins, you might have inherited a gene for hyperovulation, increasing your chances of conceiving twins also.

2. Grow or Gain Weight

A study publisher by the American Collage of Obstetrics and Gynecology correlated the rise in multiple birth rates with rising rates of obesity. Research found that mothers with a BMI (Body Mass Index) of 30 or higer were significantly more likely to have twins. Again, this statistic only holds true for fraternal twins. The research also showed that women of above average height were more likely to have multiples.

3. Grow Up: Wait Until You're Older

Older mothers are more likely to conceive twins than their younger counterparts. It's thought that the body accelerate ovulation as the biological clock starts ticking faster. Almost twenty percents of mothers who give birth over the age of 45 have multiples. However, the risk also increase; older mothers have a higher rate of miscarriage and are more likely to experience problems such as gestational diabetes during their pregnancy; in addition, their babies are at higher rick for chromosomal abnormalities.

4. Have More twins

Once you have had a multiple pregnancy, you are significantly more likely to conceive and deliver twin again. Some estimates suggest that mothers of twins are four times more likely to have twins again than a woman who has never been pregnant, or who only had a singleton.

5. Diet: Yams & Dairy

No one is quite sure why, but the Yoruba tribe in West Africa has the highest rate of twinning in the world. A study conclude that the mother's diet was the cause, being high in cassava, a type of yam or sweet potato. The peelings of this vegetable are thought to contain a chemical that causes hyper-ovulation. In addition, a 2006 study found that women who consume dairy are 5 times as likely to have twins.

6. Seek Fertility Assistance

Reproductive technology has dramatically increase the multiple birth rate. Drug that stimulate ovulation can lead to a multiple pregnancy, but multiples can also result from invitro fertilization. It's not just that multiple embryos are implanted in the mother, but there is also an unexplained increase in the number of monoxygotic twins among IVF patients. No ethical doctor would provide treatment if it wasn't warranted, so fertility assistance should only be sought out when necessary.

7. Have A Big Family

The more kids you have, the more likely you are to conceive twins in a subsequent pregnancy. No one knows tha magic limit that triggers a multiple pregnancy, so you'll just have to keep trying until it happens.

8. Conceive while Breastfeeding

Most people think that you can't get pregnant while breastfeeding, that the process of lactating keeps a woman from ovulating. However, plenty of mothers of twins disagree with that idea. Some research has supported the theory that the chance of twins or multiples is increased if a woman conceives while breastfeeding.

9. Get Pregnant On the Pill

Birth control pills are usually thought to be 99.9 % effective at preventing pregnancy. However, that 0.01% might results in double whammy multiples. Sometimes pregnancy occur when the pill isn't taken consistently; in other cases, the hormonal mix of a particular drug type simply doesn't provide enough coverage to completely prevent ovulation. In either case, playing around with hormones can lead to hyperovulation, increasing the chances of multiples.

10. Just Get Lucky

Many parents of multiples don't meet of the classic criteria, yet find themselves doubly blessed. Monozygotic twins are particularly mysterious; no one is exactly certain what causes an egg to split after conception, producing identical twins. The bottom line is that there truly isn't a whole lot an individual can do to influence their chances of having twins; sometimes you just get lucky.

10 Symbols Behind The Art of Feng Shui

2012-01-19T17:53:00.000-08:00

The Symbols Behind The Art of Feng Shui

Feng Shui is an art form that has been practiced in the Far East for over five thousand years. Feng means "Wind" and Shui means "Water" and Feng Shui is the "art of living in harmony with the earth". When we live our lives in balance and harmony, we are filled with happiness, contentment, and abundance.

Feng Shui is a Taoist based vision of the natural world; alive and filled with "Chi", or energy. The ancient Chinese believed the land's energy (chi) could be positive or negative (yin or yang).

Yin and Yang are two opposites in the Living Universe. Yin is represented by Black and Yang is White.
Classic examples of yin and yang are; night versus day; short versus tall; and male versus female. While they are opposite, it is also true that one cannot exist without the other. Without night there is no day and without black there would be no white... Thus, yin and yang energies are constantly interacting with each other in our daily lives, practitioners of the yin-yang concept advocate the need of a balance the two forces. This is where The Art of Feng Shui fits in...

1. The Chinese Dragon

A Chinese Zodiac Symbol

The Dragon symbolizes power, benevolence, intelligence, goodwill, mystery, yang energy, strength and goodness.

The Legendary Chinese Dragon is a miraculous being with scales of the fish, antlers of the deer, mane of the horse and the claws of the eagle. It represents the very spirit of change, and can transform itself, merge with itself, and become visible or invisible in the blink of an eye.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:

By placing a Dragon on our desk, we can bring the "Dragon's Luck" to us as well as protect us from harmful energy.
The Eastern region is traditionally associated with the Dragon. Hence, displaying the Dragon image on a table or in a cabinet on the Eastern side of our office or study represents excellent feng shui.
The Dragon, however, should not be placed inside the bedroom, it is too yang a creature, to be in what should be maintained as a peaceful, restful place.

As the element of the East is Wood, a Dragon carved out of wood is beneficial. We can also use a Dragon made of ceramic or crystal, but should not keep metal ones, as metal destroys the wood element.

In restaurants, shops, and department stores, it is very good to display pictures of Dragons in the East, wherever a lot of yang energy and movement is desirable.

2. The Bamboo Tree

Growth and Good Luck

Bamboo, Luck

Considered to be very auspicious in Chinese Astrology; Bamboo represents growth in relationships, life, careers or money.

It is believed that the Bamboo Tree helps improve positive chi and removes negativity from any space.

There are some who place a Bamboo Tree, or a painting of one, in their office, to enhance positive energy and bring growth and good luck to their workspace and career.

3. The Double Eight Symbol

Eternal Prosperity

This symbol signifies endless or continuous prosperity.
It is closely associated with Chinese beliefs where the sound of 8 is "fatt", which means Prosperity and Abundance.

Also, the figure 8 is known as the symbol of Infinity. Therefore, putting these two together, we have the symbolic meaning of "Endless / Forever Prosperity".

Double Happiness can also symbolize a happy relationship. It can attract romance or enhance an existing relationship. According to Feng Shui principles, if you hang this charm in the Bedroom it will bring romance and love into your life.

The Chinese also believe that the number eight is sacred and powerful, as it is associated with:
· The legendary eight immortals;
· The eight triangles of the I-Ching or "Book of Changes",
· Ancient Chinese System of Divination.
· Eighty- Eight also resembles the Chinese pictograph for "Double Happiness."

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
The 88 symbol is used universally to help create a flow of energy and unblock stagnant chi.

It activates prosperity and abundance when placed at your "Sheng-Qi" , or Success Direction and at the Wealth Area (South East) corner of your office or shop.

The figure 8 is also a Remedial Symbol, to help balance occupants, when negative symbols or a bad Feng Shui house, affects them. The use of Two Eights just doubles the effectiveness of the cure.

4. The Laughing Buddha

Buddhist Symbol of Prosperity

Laughing Buddha, Tanzhe Temple, Beiji...

The Buddha Has A Protective Supernatural Power. Born 2600 Years Ago; The Buddha Is the God Of Luck, Happiness, Laughter, and Contentment.

The Laughing Buddha is regarded as one of the gods of wealth, as it brings prosperity, success and financial gains to the occupants in the house, shop or restaurant.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
The placement of the Laughing Buddha is very important. It has to sit at a height of approximately 30 inches, and should be facing directly at the main door. Hence, a visitors "energy" entering from the main door is greeted by the Laughing Buddha and the energy is activated to become more auspicious.

Alternatively, the next best place to keep the Laughing Buddha is on a side table, or a corner table, which is diagonally opposite to front door and facing the door.

Experts believe that when you buy an image of the Laughing Buddha, three criteria should come into your selection -
1. his smile,
2. his big tummy and
3. the bag he carries; if you like these three symbols, you should not hesitate to buy it.

5. Ancient Chinese Coins

Brings Wealth and Good Luck

Ancient Chinese Coins are tied together with red string or ribbons to activate the essence of good fortune.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
The Coins should be hung on the inside of the doors, so as to be deemed already inside a house.

Always use three, six, seven or eight coins coins, rather than four or five, as these numbers are considered very auspicious and lucky.

In business, three coins tied with ribbon or string, are use to activate, or bring in, the flow of money or luck. They should be placed in a red envelope and taped under the computer at work, or taped onto the cash register or stuck on the front cover of your account ledger. The coins can also be placed in the cash box.

When placing these coins on account book covers or on the inside of doors, always stick them with the yang side up; the side which has the 4 Chinese characters written on it, should be above and visible and the other side, with the two characters, should be below.

When we use coins personally, it is to symbolize a never ending source of income, we can place the three coins, tied with a ribbon or string in our handbag, wallet or purse.

Hanging coins on the main door handle is an excellent way to bring money luck into our home to benefit all the members of the household. The coins should be hung on the inside of the door and not outside.

Coins as Auspicious Gifts:
Ancient Chinese Coins tied with a ribbon or string are very auspicious gifts, since the act of giving, in itself is most auspicious, we double our own luck each time we give some away.

Add the Coins to the presents and gifts that we give to celebrate weddings and birthdays of our loved family members and good friends.

6. The Mystic Knot

The Endless Knot, The Eternity Knot

For the Indians, the mystic knot is the favorite emblem of the Goddess Shri, who is also known as Goddess Lakshmi, the Indian Goddess of Wealth, the consort of the God Vishnu. It adorns the breast of Vishnu, and is usually depicted as an eight-looped knot.

From the spiritual Buddhist ideology, as the Mystic Knot, it symbolizes the Buddhism ideology that existence is an endless cycle of birth and rebirth. It has no beginning and no end, and like the snake, is said to swallow its own tail.

On a more earthly level, it is regarded as the perfect symbol of never ending love and unity amongst family members. This knot is supposed to bring happiness and attainment. The Mystic Knot is also known as the Endless Knot, the Eternity Knot and the Love Knot, it is therefore a lucky symbol. It represents a long life, uninterrupted by heartbreaks, separations, sufferings or setbacks.

The Mystic Knot is also the infinity symbol shown three times. The infinity symbol also corresponds to the symbol of 8.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
The Mystic Knot is red in color and it can be placed in the southwest corner of your bedroom to enhance your relationship.

To improve the relationship between family members, the Mystic Knot should be displayed in the southwest corner of the living room.

If placed in the southwest corner of an office, it ensures harmony between the staff members and the boss. It also symbolizes loyal and considerate employees.

Ancient Chinese Symbol

Phoenix

It symbolizes the luck of wish fulfillment and brings opportunities, fame and recognition.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
The luck in the Southern corner of our home or office, can be activated by placing the Phoenix there.

The image of the Phoenix at a distance, also symbolizes farsightedness, which is essential for any intelligent businessman.

Ancient Love Symbol

The Lovebirds are a symbol of love and romantic devotion!

LoveBirds form a strong attachment to their partners and are said to die when separated from one another, hence, they also represent fidelity.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
The Lovebirds, made of ceramic or crystal, should be displayed in the Southern corner, either on a table or inside a cabinet to enhance your reputation. Over the years, you are also able to achieve recognition and attain great success in your chosen profession. If the Lovebirds are the crimson Phoenix, this is even more auspicious.

9. The Fu (Foo) Dogs

Chinese Mythology

Foo dogs or "Shi" in Chinese, are mythic guardian creatures; part lion and part dragon.

Traditionally in China, Fu Dogs are protective symbols.Their job is to sense the intentions of those who approach them and allow only those with good will and kind thoughts to be able to function within their territory.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
By positioning a pair of these dogs outside our office or home they stand guard to protect us. They protect from negative energies and ward off evil or people with bad intentions from entering.The Fu Dogs are placed outside the main door and at a high position.

10. The Education Tower

Buddhist Symbol for Knowledge

The Education Tower or the Pagoda Tower is said to possess certain powers which helps to transform unruly minds into well-disciplined minds.

The Chinese education tower has evolved form the Buddhist Stupa, which is considered as a sacred object. It is good symbol for those who wish to achieve academic success. It is supposed to convert negative energy into positive energy. Hence, it is a good item to be placed on the desk of students.

Chinese feng-shui beliefs:
We can place a pagoda in a child's room to increase his/her concentration in studies and also to reduce his/her boisterous behaviors. The education tower is a said to have the power to keep away anything that could distract the mind.

The best place to keep the education tower is the NorthEast corner of the child's bedroom. The education tower is considered to have yin energy and to be effective, it should be balanced by yang energy in the room, i.e. by having red color present in the room. The yang effect of the red color helps to awaken the chi of the education tower.
