Philosophy The Microdelivery Peel from Sephora

Philosophy Microdelivery Peel

Its been months since i had the privilege to indulge with monthly facial appointment.

I used to... Ive always enjoyed a good 90 min well spent with my favorite beautician.

But that was yearssssss back.

Guessing most majority new mum like me are all facing the same problem kan. If only we could have more time...

So today waktu jejalan for luncheon at Avenue K. i had a quick stop at Sephora and purchased Philosophy Microdelivery Peel set which claims to improve skin tone in under 5 min just once a week.

Hook! I purchased my first Philosophy item.

Tak sabar nak cuba. Applied the duo for the first time once i put baby e to bed back home.

Price was around RM285 tak salah. But Sephora were running some promotion if u spend more than RM300 with CIMB credit or debit card. You will get RM50 voucher for your next purchase.

Coming from marketing background i know this is all a gimmick butttt tetap terpedaya. And So I topped up RM40 for a set of Sephora mask and volla RM50 cash voucher is now mine. lol

 How the 2 jars included in The Microdelivery Peel set that you need to apply just once a week 

Philosophy Microdelivery Peel
Warna peel ni seakan warna citrus and smells like one too. (which i like)

To use : Cuci muka dengan normal cleanser and pat dry before cuit lebih kurang size 1 sudu kecil and slowly massage all over your skin avoiding eyes and lips area for 1 minit. Then picit the other product which looks seakan gel  and gently massage lagi on to the skin dlm 2-3 min sebelum rinse dengan warm water..
Sephora Mask
Untuk fefeling macam kat salon. I apply the sephora mask and relax for 20 minute before finishing off with my mousturizer. 

The predict?

Well its too early to tell if this actually improve my skin. Butttt what i do notice after my first application. Kulit rasa tegang and pores rasa kecil. I also like the smell of the product. I did some goggle and people claim a tinggling feels on the skin. But I tak rasa sangat. Did i apply it wrongly? Hurm not to sure either.

Time will tell. I will continue to use this Philosophy The Microdelivery Peel for few more time before coming back to update on my review. I do hope to see some positive transformation to my skin.

Till then...

Sekeping Serendah

Sekeping Serendah Warehouse


I had the privilege of spending a night at Sekeping Serendah recently with our team as a token for their fab performance over Ramadhan and Lebaran.

The gang was given options of places to choose from for a short mid week company getaway to bond and destress.

Sekeping Serendah warehouse 2 selected

Didnt know what to expect, we gathered at 12pm on the day of travel and left the building in 2 cars packed with 11 pax, sufficient food and bbq supplies for one night stay.

From Damansara drove via LDP down to Sg Buloh and interchange to NKVE heading to Rawang.

Waze direction was 90% accurate and took a good 1 hour and a half to reach. 

First impression WOW

The retreat is a definite one of a kind.

Set passed kampung orang asli, backdrop by forest and jungle, the Warehouse 2 brings a refreshing option.

No its not a 5 star hotel where you could easily hail for buttler or room service.

Yet, with its minimalist deco, functional amenities and ability to overnight with the sound of nature in a more comfortable setting is a definite win!

Forget about watching tv or browsing facebook or instagram on your mobile cause phone reception is pretty poor to some and non existent to me.

Instead take this opportunity to enjoy leisurely walk to a refreshing waterfall spot. (20 min by foot from Sekeping Serendah) Swimming in an infinity pool surrounded by the nature, team up with a group of friends or family members for some good bbq dinner before hours of chit chatting filled with laughter, card games and acapella singing at minimal interruption.

Will I return? A definite yes!

Its an experience I wont mind repeating

Useful Tips to consider

1. Make sure you come full prepared with food, drinks, cigarette supply as the nearest shop/restaurant is 15-20 min away by car.

2. Come with an open mind - Its an experience like no other.

3. Please remember to bring black coffee! if you are a coffee drinker like me. They provide only packet milo and 3 in 1 coffee. Ive missed out on bringing some. sigh

4. Bring towel and toiletries as its not provided.

5. Prepare some games or trivia to play with friends or family.

6. There's sufficient electic plug if you need to charge phone, put up speaker or even use a hair dryer.

7. Arrive early (check in time is at 2pm) so you have sufficient time to unpack, prepare some meal before heading down to nearby waterfall area

8. MUST DO - walk to waterfall

9. My opinion Warehouse 2 layout at Sekepeing Serendah are not very suitable for younger kids due to its location in the forest and layout of the rooms/space.

10. Plan the trip with closed friends or loved ones and just have fun!

4 amazing days at Dusit Thani Krabi

Dusit Thani Krabi

Pengalaman pertama menginap at this Thai hotel chained shout 1 word.

Amazing!

From the moment of arrival

sehingga ke saat terakhir.

An absolute thai hospitality at its best

Flight via Airasia took less than 2 hours untuk ke Krabi.

Cost Rm1000 untuk 2 dewasa dan 1 infant

on a super last minute booking - Ie 2 hari sebelum

Again, I highly recommend DO NOT book last minute

cause u could definitely save so much.

But then again if you are a last minute holiday seeker.

Krabi by Air Asia is still an affordable option to consider. 

Location : Nong Thale

Transportation dari airport ke Dusit Thani Krabi cost 700 bth one way in a private car 

Easily purchased setibanya di airport dengan jarak less than 45 minutes.

15 minit dari pantai Ao Nang dan 30 minit dari Krabi town.

Dusit Thani Krabi is situated on its own pantai private

dan di kelilingi banyak restaurant (halal dan non halal),

kedai dan massage parlour.

Sangat sesuai untuk mereka yang impikan percutian tepian pantai

A good choice for family travellers for peace, quiet and zen.

We stayed in their Deluxe Club room for 1 night

and move to private pool suite the remaining stay.

Our predict :

Club Deluxe room

Room size are decent as what normal deluxe room would be

Toilet is comfortable and clean

Cukup besar untuk mandikan baby kecil with sepearate standing shower dan bath tub

We were located on highest floor / 3rd floor with good balcony size

partial view of the greens to enjoy some smoke, drinks and coffee

Price per room per night around THB4000


Dusit Thani Club Deluxe Room












Dusit Thani Krabi Club Deluxe Room balcony

Dusit Thani Krabi Club Deluxe bathroom

Dusit Thani Krabi 1 Bedroom Pool Suite 

Room size is big.

Terbahagi kepada 4 bahagian

- Bilik tidur, Tv area / Study area, Toilet dan pool

Modernly design, comfortable bed, bersih (spotless actually)

Located di tingkat bawah same building as the deluxe room

with the clooset distance to main pool and beach

Room price THB900 per night booked straight from Dusit Thani Krabi Website

Masterbed with door to our private pool

TV room connected with a study table

Dusit Thani 1 bedroom Private Pool Room
Fun time with miss rock star

Overall I highly recomend on both room at Dusit Thani Krabi.

Choose depanding on your budget

To me the only different between bilik suite dan deluxe

cuma size and the privilege of having your own private pool

We choose private pool cause its more convenient cause we travelled with cik sentil. Its easier to put her to nap before and after swims

Packing list - Beach getaway with si kecil

Ok kali ni I nak share some of my packing list when travelling with cik sentil.

This time kami plan for a beach holiday.

Selalunya bila travel saya suka bawa

1 x beg XXL untuk check-in filled with my stuff, Baby E and Daddy sekali.

1 x beg cabin beroda untuk di bawa masuk ke pesawat.

Kenapa?

Mostly dalam beg cabin ni ada brang persalinan baby, susu, toys dan lain-lain

to ensure a smooth flight with si kecil

And reason why beg beroda untuk memudahkan proses membawa nya nanti.

It goes the same kenapa we choose to minimize bag count

supaya takde la byk sgt bag nak carry nanti

Think easy, light and stress free.

Secondly untuk handbag pula

I prefer either carry something really small and sling OR big and light.

Untuk kali ni I choose big and light

Ok jumping straight to the packing list.

Here you go a sample of my must bring untuk percutian 4 hari 3 malam ke tepian pantai





Some of baby toiletries yang wajib bawa


Clothes

Baby E akan conquer most of the space
This will be some must bring item to ensure a smooth flight with si kecil
