Notti boy

30th May 2010

Recently I find that when raphael takes too sugary food after 8pm..he seems super hyperactive...
to the extend he jump n jump and run about like a spoilt toy...cannot stop
then last nite he started to throw things at Ben & Me


which really anger us...coz no reasons why he shld be throwing objects at us and it hurts leh
So i tried to scold him..push him to a corner and scold lor...


he started to cry and at many points try to divert my attention by saying he wan milk...then at sometimes he wan to beat me!
WAH! its either that the sugar level was too high after 2 yakults by grandparents...that make him lose his ability to think...


or he too naughty..shall monitor this action!!

MIRACLE LASH SERUM!!!

Hehehee...Those who know me should know I never put in effort to put makeup or whatsoever....But hor...again lar... if you read my previous post...Recently more hiao mah...

So went to get this Miracle Lash Serum...Try try mah....dun try how i know not good rite...

Will try to apply soon...




















Some info on the Serum....
The Miracle Lash Serum is specially formulated to nourish the eyelashes and eyebrows. It is ideal for people who:


• Have naturally short eyelashes
• Have naturally sparse eyelashes
• Damaged their eyelashes during eyelash perm or eyelash extensions
• Damaged their eyelashes from applying and removing mascara daily
• Have eyebrows that end at the eyebrow arch
• Pulled out their eyelashes when they removed their false eyelashes
• Have brittle eyelashes or eyebrows

Get Longer and Fuller Lashes in 14 Days!

If you have always dreamed of long, lush, strong, thick eyelashes, you must get the Miracle Lash Serum today.

Other than being aesthetically pleasing and making us look more attractive, our eyelashes perform an important job in keeping dust from entering our eyes. Therefore, it is most desirable for women and men alike to have long, luscious and full eyelashes. In reality, however, most of our eyelashes never reach their full potential length due to a lack of water and proper nutrition in our diet, the use of makeup products, makeup remover and other medical reasons.

With The Miracle Lash Serum, you can look forward to longer, more lustrous and fuller eyelashes within days of usage.

The Miracle Lash Serum works in 3 ways.

1. It plumps up existing lashes by hydrating them and holding in the moisture. The unique combination of ingredients and small size of the ingredient molecules ensure that the eyelashes stay plump, hydrated and glossy. This also helps to treat damaged eyelashes.

2. It prolongs the Anagen phase of the eyelashes. Hair is actively growing at this phase and by prolonging this phase, eyelashes appear fuller and do not drop out so easily and quickly.

3. It stimulates new eyelashes growth. Baby eyelashes can be seen to grow where there are hair follicles. The Miracle Lash Serum is effective on eyebrows too.

How to apply

Application Technique

The Miracle Lash Serum comes with a mascara-type brush. This allows you to coat all eyelashes or eyebrows evenly and thoroughly.

When applying the Miracle Lash Serum, coat all eyelashes or eyebrows from the eyelash base to the tip of the eyelashes and from left to right. It is important that the brush TOUCHES the skin. This allows the Miracle Lash Serum to stimulate the hair follicles and allow new baby hair to grow out.

The bottle comes with a stopper at the opening to control the amount of serum dispensed every time so that you won't have any messy situation where you get blobs of serum on your skin or in your eyes.

For best results, we recommend applying the Miracle Lash Serum twice a day.

In the morning, you should apply the Miracle Lash Serum before applying your mascara, that is, if you happen to be using mascara.

Next, apply the Miracle Lash Serum before you sleep.

INGREDIENTS LIST

The Miracle Lash Serum is made in Korea with the finest ingredients.
Cucumber ExtractContains humectant properties that promotes the retention of moisture in the eyelashes and eyebrows. This allows them to appear plump and thick.

AllantoinKnown for its gentleness, Allantoin has healing properties an is used to promote the growth of healthy tissues.
Witch HazelAn astringent derived from plants. It is found to be effective against free radicals and hence helps to prevent eyelash or eyebrow loss.

Sodium HyaluronateDerived from Sugar Beets and Soy, Sodium Hyaluronate is able to hold up to 1000 times

Silk Protein Mineral

Recently got alot of stuffs from BP, be it for hair, skin, clothings, CDs, DVDs, aiyo...I am the Spree Queen lar... You name it, I buy it... LOL

After my soft rebond of hair I always feel that my hair is drier...and stiffer... hai...so happen to came across this silk protein in BP and decided to give a try...since its cheap lar..no harm trying...

When I received the parcel... wah...wrap in those resealable plastic...hmm...just try lor...mixed with water and then dissolved it and mixed to my shampoo...Was a gamble lar..what if it spoils my shampoo..but seeing the reviews of so many ladies in the thread...should be safe lor

After first usage I must say it is GOOD! I did see some improvement like smoother hair...softer...
Happy lor...so went to re-order again....

=)

Some info on the minerals:

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT SILK PROTEIN

Why did I received the Silk Protein hardened?
For silk to work on our skin and hair, it have to be hydrolyzed. Hydrolyzed powder contact with minimal amount of water vapour will hardened. To keep Silk Protein powdery, store it in Freezer compartment.

Does hardened Silk Protein still works?
Yes it work, afterall you still have to dissolve the powder into the liquid shampoo/shower. Its functionality is not altered at all, it just take a few more mins compared to powder form to dissolve.

Why does Silk protein works?
When hair is damaged, the protein layer would not be sufficient to do fast self-repair. Silk Protein will form a crystalised bond on the surface, protecting the hair and skin from external damage, allowing the internal to start repairing works. Silk protein is found to be reflecting UV rays plus its an moisturizing protein.

How does Silk protein compare with conditioner?
Our Silk protein has no other ingredient, its purely Silk Protein. Many shampoo in the market have protein added, and for ingredient listing, usually the 1st 7 ingredient of the shampoo would form the main portion of the shampoo content. If you find the protein is listed further from the front listing, it means the % of usage is not very high. By adding your own Silk Protein, you have created a moisturizing product to be use. Silk protein is not oil base, and thus it will not clog pores or follicles.

Why must we wait for 10 seconds before rinsing?
Like conditioner, Silk protein need time to bond with hair and skin. You can see and feel the difference when you have added sufficient Silk Protein. Some would be able to tell your hair look "coated" but it does not feel like wax, Silk protein bonding is not waxed feel, it is crystalized.

Why is there not a fix formulation and always stated as start off with 1 teaspoon for every 200ml shampoo?
Each shampoo is made with different formula, so its not possible to use the same proportion. We recommend starting with 1 teaspoon Silk protein with every 200ml, and you have to add more till result is satisfactory. Most shampoo need 2-4 teaspoon per 200ml.

Is there a maximum?
Yes and NO. Yes because as you mix when result is satisfactory for you, you should STOP adding else its wasted. NO because you can actually do Silk protein NEAR on your hair as hair mask. Just mix 2 teaspoon of Silk Protein with a little water, apply on hair and your hair will be soft and silky in 10mins treatment when you rinse off.

Is there an expiry date?
No. Silk protein do not come with expiry date. It is made from core of the Silk yarn.

After taking Herbalife for 3months to be exact, I feel good.


This product is really good in areas like full of vitamins and really boosts up my energy level when i realli need it badly esp at night.


Now I can tahan till 1am without any problems to keep up with Ah Phael's schedule.
Hmmm.. Not only I lost weight, I also managed to convince Benji to take up the products.
LOL... Now, his mum, my mum, sis all are regular users lor... Be it Milkshake, herbal tea or cell u loss...


But I guess I am getting too comfortable in the sense that I really happily forget to exercise.Jialat man... yesterday I walk past Raffles place CF, went for my eyebrow trimming...Felt abit guilty... hahaaa


Membership expiring in July... Didnt Renew and got a feeling I will not renew..maybe just take the milkshake to maintain weight..got time then exercise ba...cham... issit healthy? I also not very sure.. but indeed my breakfast become healthier... no doubt about it....



Some thoughts on MLM, recently been pushed very hard to go for some events and even another lady called me up to "loh soh" on how their team work and i shldnt have any reservations in meeting them up.


I was very very offended by the way she talk. She told me that i can give up my family time for that special event...my boi lessons are not as important or crucial compared to those events and meetings lorAnd those parties or celebrations by my friends can missed..Not THEIRS!


What a big overstatement.. I think she made the wrong move lor, if she didnt called me up, I may have gone to "open" my eyes... see how good their events are..but after that call, i was determined not to go at all..


Why? Family time, Raphael Time, Friends Time are in my TOPMOST priority!Nothing can be exchanged for that. NONE.


What can I learn from those events...seriously..no offense..to me they are just motivating talks, to motivate those who are new, make them work for something which may not happen at all.
I am a very practical and realistic person. I see things which can happen now, not in few years time.


In MLM, not all can make it, only a handful. Those are the lucky ones with alot of strong downline supporting them.
Well, Look ahead at the Present, Treasure what you currently have.
To build the Future, you cannot neglect your present too!

My Darling Raphael















See the difference between the 2 pictures? Raphael had indeed grown up...

Last nite i was asking him... "Phael...Can Mummy 爱爱 Yvette 姐姐?"

Phael Replied me "NO! Mummy 爱爱 ah Phael"

Then I pester him again "Then Can Mummy hug hug Yvette 姐姐"

Phael Replied me "NO! Mummy hug hug Ah Phael"

Though a simple conversation, can feel how much he wants me to only dote on him,....
Hehhee..Benji been so jealous recently that when he try to hug Phael..Phael will push him away and say NO!

hhahaaa...

Alamak! He realli is a little grown up... I asked him to turn in early as i need to work the next day...
he replied me "I want Currri Pok"

Money NO enough

Sometimes I feel the pressure... From everywhere on Money...I am not earning a huge sum monthly...do-able, make-able.... can pass thru days comfortably..


But when it comes to family borrowing money from me... i feel damn stress up...
wah...2k not a small amount... i feel so stress and vexed...in a dilema... its not easy to save up 2k on my end...and if i just lend it out... it may take a few months to recover back...


not that i am selfish... but sometimes...i want to see spare cash in my bank too,.... and if loan out..i am back to square one..then wats the point of saving in the first place? wats the point of trying to think before i buy stuffs?
i rather splurge all i can... =(


i may sound selfish...got the money yet dun loan...but if i loan out... i be "bankrupt"...shld i or shld i not?
