Ben 10 Micro Omnitrix Playset

Everyone has got their busy lifestyle and with CMCO kids just stay at home. Sharing with you that Ben 10 Micro Omnitrix Playset that my son likes to play with, you may click on the link to view the video. It's his new Ben 10 toy collection, his brother also likes it as his brother also a fan of Ben 10 when he was young. My son likes Ben 10 and I have done a few face painting of Ben 10 aliens that he likes. You can also see them on my instagram which I have shared it last week. It's fun with Ben 10 makeup with my son as he enjoys it too. He had a good play time after the makeup, it lasted more more than an hour before he washed it off.

 My son likes like to watch Ben 10 movie, Ben 10 Vs The Universe. Have you watched it? They also like to find Ben 10 on youtube to see.

My kids have online class at home, we followed the schedule that given by the school. They also have their online tuition at home. Sometimes I need to go tuition centre to collect the homework papers.

 

Juggling life of mom of two boys and blogging

It's been quite sometimes since I blog about my juggling life as a mom of two boys. Busy in and out of the home to fetch my children from school and also for tuition centers. It's not easy tasks as there's no replacement which time is consumed and immediate action needed for example. Right after school to send to tuition so in the car, he has to eat and changed before going to tuition class. How many transporter or rider would you think that will do this? I don't think there's any especially there's need to change of uniform in car.

There's need of homework guidance and teaching them on study and tough questions to answer on Sean's paperwork. Though I have paid the tuition center to let him to learn but then the tuition center given the papers to him which he is not sure of how to answer, so I need to help him out to answer and also asking him to read and think. It's no longer UPSR but PPSR examination. Chinese papers are not easy and it's even tougher for me as I am not good with Mandarin.

If there's invitation for family events or single invite to events, I would need to think twice or triple about it as I need to consider my children's first. Whether the timing and venue are suitable for me to attend or not and whether I have time for my children or not. It's not easy so most of the time, I would let go the chances.

Sometimes the venue and time are suitable for me, consider it some me time that I can get away for a while before fetching them. Well, never forget mom duties of course and also doing what I love. I am happy that some brands are willing to send me their products for review knowing that I have busy parenting schedule.  I got invited for media trip as well but I got to let it go as I need to fetch my children, both of them now in Standard 1 and Standard 6, important stage of education in Primary School. I always advice/encourage them to read more, write more and speak more in languages. It's always easy to say than doing it.

Besides blogging and social media, I have also started Youtube, you can check out my latest video. Feel free to subscribe to my video.  There's lot to learn in editing and it's a handful of challenge in life, so just doing what I enjoy til I am bored and lose interest of it. In mean time I love what I am doing and keeping it up when I have the time.

Review: Veet Sensitive Touch

 

Last month I attended the Veet Sensitive Touch Workshop and I bring home this beauty gadget to use.
Being mom of two boys and I am in and out always for mom duties and also events during my free time. I know it's important for personal grooming. Here's a photo of me below as you can see my eyebrow didn't have any makeover. With this gadget in hand, I can show you it is easy to use.

What eyebrow shapes do you desired? At the workshop Stevensunny share about the Rock, Bohemian and Korean Brows. 

Rock, Bohemian and Korean Brows. 

Each Veet Sensitive Touch comes with a beauty styler, one two-sided precision head for optimal eyebrow shaping, one bikini trimming head, one comb attachments, one styler cap, one cleaning brush, one beauty pouch. The device runs on an AA battery, which is included in the packaging too. Do check out this beauty gadget if you have interest to purchase, it is retails at RM119.00 at major pharmacies nationwide and online retailers.

Before using the Veet Sensitive Touch, check out my eyebrows

To get start I use the one two-sided precision head for optimal eyebrow shaping, slowing pull one side of my eyebrow up to shape trim away the extra hair at the bottom of eyebrow.

I repeat the steps on the other side of my other side eyebrow. Practice makes perfect as at beginning I am scare of using it, but it will not cut my skin. It is safe to use, you can find this product display if you saw it displayed. I saw this product displayed at the Watsons, Subang Parade.

No more going for eyebrow trimming at beauty salons or beauty centers as I can do it myself. One time of eyebrow trimming at beauty salon would cost RM38. The beauty salon some of them would offer you a month of free eyebrow trimming at RM180. Why not just purchase this gadget yourself and do it yourself.

Easy steps and everyone can have a pair of beautiful eyebrows

Pink head tool is good for trimming the eyebrow, I like it as I don't have to use scissor to cut my brows. 

What I like about this gadget it has the one bikini trimming head, well I didn't use this on my bikini line but instead I used it on my underarms. It works well too, looks at the hair on the gadget.

Simple steps of using it, just choose the suitable head of the gadget to put on the tool. There's a brush that you can use to brush away the way. Remove the head either two-sided precision head or bikini trimming head from the tool and take it for wash. Then dry it with cloth that you have, I put on the a drop of baby oil on the blade. You'll find this info on the instruction paper included with the package.

Each Veet Sensitive Touch comes with a beauty styler, one two-sided precision head for optimal eyebrow shaping, one bikini trimming head, one comb attachments, one styler cap, one cleaning brush, one beauty pouch. The device runs on an AA battery, which is included in the packaging too.

Product review: 3D Hydrogel Moisturising Face Mask

It's Sunday, don't be lazy to take some time off for your skin.

We need some pamper moments for self.

In a week try to apply a mask or two masks.

Look it's November now, soon to be December.

I am not getting any younger, I know, that's my dear always says me.

Not just me, of course to him too.

You can always take time off for yourself.

20 minutes a day, in a week just to put on the mask.

The guardian 3D Hydrogel Face Mask Collection offers two variants, Moisturising and Brightening for a refreshing new era of mask innovation for more effective at home facial skincare.


After open the mask, I saw there are two parts of masks together, one is for the upper face another for the lower face.

Ideal for those with dry skin, the 3D Hydrogel Moisturising Face Mask provides long-lasting moisturising, soothing, smoothing and nourishing benefits for skin to look and feel more hydrated and smooth to the touch. Contains eco-certified Calendula extract that is known for its moisturising and soothing properties.

It's easy to apply this mask, put it on for 15 minutes to 20 minutes on cleanse face.

There's no need to wash face after using the mask. 

This collection also offers a brightening variant; the guardian 3D Hydrogel Brightening Face Mask for those would prefer a fresher complexion. This variant brightens, moisturises and refines for a dewier radiance. It contains eco-certified Bilberry extract that is known to promote skin lightening, skin refining and is enriched with anti-oxidant properties for your delicate skin.

You can always find time to do masking. Just find the suitable time and place where you feel comfortable to do. Some of my friends use face mask as travel use too while travel in bus.

The 3D Hydrogel Face Mask Collection retails for RM 11.35 per sheet at Guardian outlets.
