My all time favourite Origins GinZing Moisturiser


Hello Sweeties! I am going to spend some time to introduce you my all time favourite skincare product, which is Origins GinZing moisturiser! 

Origins is a well-known brand for using natural plant with powerful skincare ingredients in their products. As for this GinZing range of skincare, the main ingredients are Coffee Beans and Panax Ginseng to restore your face, giving you a radiance glow! This range of product is recommended for those who has dry, rough skin, oily and of course, normal skin. As for my sensitive skin, I'VE BEEN USING THE 4TH JAR OF GINZING MOISTURISER NOW! I just could't resist the scent of this moisturiser, I love how it wakens me up in the morning after applying it on my face. No doubt it said energy-boosting heh. 




RM 120 for 50ml. The one in 75ml is no longer available.


Brought my first jar to recycle in Origins store. Using the 4th jar now.






When do I apply GinZing Moisturiser?
In the AM, right after applying toner. The two main reasons why i love to use it during my morning skincare routine is because of the refreshing scent and it is not sticky! The texture is smooth after applying, not too creamy. However, I do not apply GinZing Moisturiser before bed is because I personally think that it is not moisture enough for my dry skin under the air cond. Hence, I usually apply something more moisturise instead of this. 

So...... please do not hesitate or think twice if you are planning to get this product because I am sure you will fall in love with it! Also, I'm planning to try out the other products from the GinZing range and also the Mega Mushroom skin relief series to help calm down my sensitive skin. Anyone tried any of these Origins products before? Please share your review on the comment box ya! 



xoxo

Gero Onsen - Suimeikan

Gong Hei Fatt Choi! Today is the sixth day of Chinese New Year, slacking and being lazy at home. Was scrolling the photo album in the phone, and decided to blog about Gero Onsen - Suimeikan (水明馆).

This was an impromptu, errrr not to say impromptu laa, the bf and I decided to join his friend, Deckson, and Deckson's gf, Miko, for a 3 days 2 nights trip to the outskirt part of Japan, just one week before our flight. So this could be considered as a last minute plan.

Landed at Narita airport in the evening on Christmas Day, took the airport shuttle bus to Tokyo Station and walked 25 minutes to our hotel. Checked in at APA Hotel Kodemmacho-Ekimae, bought our dinner at a nearby Family Mart, and dozed off after eating and bathing. What a tiring day, not having the chance to stroll around the city and enjoy Christmas Day.

We woke up early the next morning, checked out and started our journey to Suimeikan! Oh ya, we did not take any public transport to Suimeikan because Deckson rented a car in Tokyo, so he drove all the way. The journey from Tokyo to Gero took around four and a half hour.


Stopped by at the rest station and had ice cream in the cold cold weather, it was a good experience tho.



Weather was good, air was fresh.... I just totally love this place.

Soon, we reached some kampung kampung place, and we could not resist to get down from the car to take some pictures! The river was unpolluted, it was so clear where I was able to see the rocks underneath.






Drove a bit more further and we reached Suimeikan. The sky was already dark when we reached although it was only 5pm due to winter season. Checked in our Japanese styled room and dinner was served IN THE ROOM! Everything was perfectly arranged by the staff, all we have to do was sit and wait for everything to be done.





 Didn't take a lot of pictures of the food cuz I was too busy eating. Was a bit regret now haha.


Went for Onsen (hot spring bath) after dinner. Was bit nervous cuz this was my most awkward moment in my life - being naked in front of everyone in the Onsen. No clothes, nothing, only a piece of towel, no joke. Of cuz, male and female are separated. For hygiene purposes, we have to bath before dipping ourselves into the Onsen. They have two Onsen, outdoor and indoor. We tried the indoor one first and the feeling was great. The temperature of the water was quite hot, felt my skin burning but it was good after getting used to the temperature. However, i prefer the outdoor rocky open-air bath which was nicer, view was also nice, everything was wonderful. Soaking myself in the Onsen outside the chilly weather for half an hour, not wanting to leave cuz it was just too amazing. I almost fell asleep in the Onsen haha. Didn't have any picture of the Onsen cuz photographs are not allowed so just log on to their website for more info. 


Had the best sleep after the bath. Hope I will have the chance to visit this place again!

Day 22 of 2017.


How time flies, with a blink of eye, it's already 2017. 

On the first day of 2017, I was thinking of getting a new diary or journal to jot down every single thing in 2017, or perhaps making a scrapbook of all the places I've been to. However, time is a major problem for me, seems like 24 hours a day is not enough! So.. here am I, decided to continue blogging after three years and all previous posts are saved to draft, not gonna publish them! 

Recalling back to the year 2016..
Last year was a tough yet wonderful year for me, left home for my final year in UK and got my degree, explored more than 10 countries in a year, and of course, there were some bad times. This is life right.

Although I've been back for five months, I still fall into reverie whenever I've got nothing to do, thinking of every single bits and pieces in the UK, regretting for not enjoying every single little thing while I still had the chance to be there. Promise to blog about the life, the places I've been and the course I took in the UK, provided that I have time to blog ya.

Life is to short, never waste a moment, hopefully 2017 will be a wonderful year for me!
