I had the opportunity to attend Eason's LIFE concert at the O2 in London. My hubby worked as one of the press and obtained a limited press pass.

FINE Hyaluron & Collagen Review

I just came back holidaying in Thailand and Singapore and had an amazing time. Time spent with my other half is always fun and enjoyable. However this holiday is slightly different, I got to meet some of my friends from around the world. More on that later!

One of my good friends Mich, recommended me to try the FINE Hyaluron & Collagen powder to improve my skin. She has already blogged about it, so I will not go into details on the ingredients and packaging etc. Please read her review http://anonymousmich.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/fine-hyaluron-collagen.html.

Here is the link to more information about this product. http://www.tokyoninki.com/webshaper/store/viewProd.asp?pkProductItem=88

I bought my tin of FINE from Singapore Sasa, though you can buy it from Sasa online too. Every morning I have cereal and I put a teaspoon of this powder and mix it with milk before adding cereal.

Taste wise, mixed with milk, its a bit creamy, I think it milk smells rather sweet but it does not taste sweet.

When I got back from my trip, I had several spots on my face and with coming back to UK weather, my skin soon developed lots of dry patches.

I have taken this for 6 days now, I can honestly say all my spots have deflated and look really faint. I have freckles which are not changed in any way but the rest of the skin on my face seems to be clearer as well as brighter. I do still have some dryness but I don't think without moisturising, my skin will get any hydration. When I feel my face, its more elasticated and soft.  All in all, I notice a big difference on my face. This is because when I usually get spots on my face, it takes a long time for them to disappear, but this time, its less than one week!

I will continue with this tin until I finish it! So far so good though! Thumbs up!

Happy New Year 2014!

Another year, another year older and wiser, time are flying by!

I haven't blogged for a while and feel that I need to make more of an effort with a lot of things. Here is a list of my resolutions:
  1. Participate and complete 1 half marathon. I am so torn between the Nike Run To The Beat and Royal Parks.
  2. Stay fit and health.
  3. Lose weight, personally aim for losing at least 5kg.
  4. Spend more time when possible with parents. When you know that one day they will leave you and they are getting old, you will learn to appreciate what they done for you and want to spend more quality time with them.
  5. Take parents on 1 summers holiday. I already have an idea in mind.
  6. Try and spend this years Christmas or New Years somewhere else, maybe abroad.
OK hope to blog more soon!

Happy New Year!
