[Review] Nivea Normal Skin Set

Morning world, a lovely post today to kick start a wonderful Thursday!

Today gonna review about this giveaway from +Carinn Tan about a month ago.

Here is the set of NIVEA free giveaway from her; the set includes NIVEA In-Shower Skin Conditioner, Happy Time Body Lotion and a Age-Defying Hand Cream.

From picture below; left to right:
1. NIVEA In-Shower Body Lotion Skin Conditioner
2. NIVEA Age Defying Hand Cream
3. NIVEA Happy Time Body Lotion


Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion
Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion, what does "In-Shower" mean, no ideal with it? Don't worry, here i will explain to you in advanced. 

"In-Shower" mean you have to use it during shower time, as a conditioner, but at first you must first bath with your normal soap or shower cream before you bath with this. Step is same as the combination of hair shampoo and hair conditioner. 


Here is the amount of Nivea In-Shower Body Lotion i squeeze, to try it out whether this is enough for whole body or not. But i think i need to add more for next use, because when you rub evenly, this amount is only enough to cover both hands and half of body area.

The smell good just like the normal Nivea Lotion. But when I tried to soak it into water in a pail, I experienced a bit of uncomfortable feeling, but still acceptable. Come to the feeling when I apply all over my body, the first thing came to my mind is that the light natural fragrance smell spread over the whole bathroom (I'm not over, but it was truth for my experience). And it does not make me feel oily or sticky, especially I can felt the smoothness immediately all over my body while I rinsing off the lotion with clean water.


Nivea Age Defying Hand Cream

This is their Nivea Age-Defying Hand Cream, what do you understand by ''Defying"? Defying

is mean of "challenge" which it will actually resist the formation of more and anti-ageing purpose as our age increase.

So this lotion is works as a resistant of more wrinkles over you hands. It also contains of Q10 which enriched of skin co-enzyme to helps prevent first sign of anti ageing and UV filters. 


  

Just a little of amount is enough for both hands, but i squeeze so a bit oily for me. Same procedures as in rub the lotion evenly in your both hands, the moderate smell is like baby powder but more attractive. 

*PS: due to over squeeze, it left some oily feel on my hands. but if the amount you squeeze is just enough, then you wont experience that.


A picture of before and after applied the lotion on my hands, i think is due to the lighting problem, this picture is not really clear. But i can see the difference of it from my direct looks visually to my own hands.


Nivea Happy Time Body Lotion

Lastly, NIVEA Happy Time Body Lotion. The lotion smell so special which is very light bamboo and milk smell. This lotion smell soft and fresh, does not like other lotion with strong smell. If you're more prone to soft smell lovers, and you are a normal to dry skin person, then you might have this lotion.



Between, the lotion is good to apply as in it's not oily or sticky. So don't worried that some lotion is oily and leave a sticky feeling on your feeling? 

Only a little amount is just enough for one hand. So I don't need to apply much, so that my skin won't be sticky or oily.


Just a little bit is enough, so don't need to apply too much. But, if you accidentally squeeze too much, it won't leave u an unpleasant or oily feels. Love this body lotion so much!


Feel free to follow me and do drop your comment here :D

More and more to come in future, thanks fro supporting a newbie ^.^

Time to Eat

Time to go on Two Wheels


These days, the LOHAS (Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability) trend is gaining popularity as people begin to be more health and eco-conscious. Taiwan is well-known for its LOHAS practices, and there is no better way to experience it than to travel along the breath-taking coastal highways by bicycle! Immerse yourself in the beauty of nature and appreciate the simple yet wonderful things in life with your loved ones.

Oat Drinks Journey

Today gonna blog about my health oat drinks journey.

Was having phobia of drinking oat all this while because ever vomited last time due to over intake of oat. But now, I has overcome this after so long. 

And sincerely thanks to my dear friend, Jacqueline Khoo who guides and taught me about this. She broke my obstacles of having phobia with oat, haha..

How to make it?
Step 1: put 4 tbs of oat into a jug
Step 2: add on any soy milk into the jug (if you love oat, you can make it 1:1), original soy @ brown sugar soy @ less sugar soy based on your favorite
(but i tried HomeSoy  and V-Soy) HomeSoy is cheaper, the taste is like normal soy that we buy outside; while V-Soy is more expensive about RM3+, but it have more healthy ingredients and it really taste good, it contained of purple brown rice, black sesame, barley and malt.
Step 3: put it in fridge, let it cool for overnight
Step 4: just take out from fridge the next morning, serve with you favorite fruits for topping
Step 5: AS SIMPLE AS THAT, HEALTHY AND TASTY BREAKFAST IS SERVED!!

Here i served my oat with grape fruit and mandarin orange which actually left from CNY, so it mixed up of sweet and sour taste.

PS: if you're lazy to add the topping, you can eat in the other way round with no fruit. 

Home Soy



V-Soy

Another day oat drink with honeydew, grape and banana.


This one only banana and honeydew.


Change some watermelon and goji berries instead of fruits everyday.

Business hours:0900-2100 @ 9:00am-9:00pm



Have you ever seen this famous Penang Mural? This the only one Penang Mural drawn in Angcle Peoh's shop. 


A short introduction of Angcle Peoh about his business routing from young. This introduction below come together with the menu, when you turn the other way round, you can read about Angcle Peoh business life changes from the year of 1950-2014.


Angcle Peoh's mother was good in cooking, Asam Laksa was her good dish among all. So, at the year of 1950, Uncle Peoh mother started to sell Asam Laksa at the bridge side. 



At the year of 1953, Uncle Peoh's mother needs to carried all the Laksa ingredients in a rattan basket. She travel everyday from her house to Ayer Itam market about 4-km of distance. 


At 1960, Uncle Peoh was only 7 years old. But he started to helps his mother at the Laksa stall. In the same year as well, the got their first bicycle that can reduced their burden instead of carried manually. 


At the year of 1967, Uncle Peoh was only 17 years old, they owned their very first pedicab. 


After 27 years of hardwork and paid off, finally Uncle Peoh owned a small lorry.


At the year of 2014, Penang Ayer Itam Asam Laksa been spreads and now it is famous and well known in Malaysia. Thus, they named their business as "ANG-cle" Peoh which ideally came from their surname, it is pronouns same as "Uncle".


Fews picture of their air-conditioner free and non air-conditioner dinning area. Can you spot Angcle Peoh is cooking personally from the picture there? This picture is the air-conditioner free dinning area.





Their air-conditioner dinning area is bigger and have more seat inside.



Next come their menu provided. 
The foods listing is over the left side, while the drinks listing is over the right side. 






These are the few dishes me and my family ordered that day. Obviously we never missed out their famous dish - Asam Laksa. 

They do have 3 options for Asam Laksa; you can choose either add soup, add vege or even add mee. 

But i chose to be no vege because i don't like the taste of it, end up i got so many mee. This bowl contains of only the mee and the sardin fish. The sour taste is just nice enough. 



This is one of famous Penang dish, Ba Mee (in Mandarin is called as 

豬肉面), the soup taste fresh and naturally sweet of pork taste without any smelly taste. 



Hihiii..another Penang famous food of Prawn Mee. It is quite oily, but for those spicy lovers, for sure you love it. For those who can't eat spicy, you might get a drink with you. 

It contains half boiled egg and fews fresh prawns, kangkung, and fried onion as the topping of it Prawn Mee. 


This is their Duck Egg Fried Kuey Teow, They have normal fried kuey teow with chicken eggs or duck eggs. Definitely the price is different form each other. 

But, we ordered their duck egg fried kuey teow, consists of duck egg, bean sprout (tauge), and leek (jiu cai), only a bit spicy.  



Lastly, their dessert Cendol. I ordered my drink Wintermelon with Aloe Vera.
PS: missed out this picture, sorry ya 


Strongly recommended Angcle Peoh Asam Laksa to everyone, especially to Klang people. You guys can come to have a try. Lots of choices of Penang famous foods. I'm sure it wont disappoint you.

I had talked to Angcle Peoh which is the owner of this. He said that he came here just to have a try whether can build up this business here by his friend recommendation, and now he saw the result that Klang people actually love Asam Laksa. He even told me that Penang Ayer Itam roadside stall business is still on, but handling by his elder brother.
