Beauty From the Inside Out

Ola! I just wanted to share these few tips i read on the internet. Hope you guys love it! ;)

1. Stress Management

Just as important as taking care of what you put in your body, stress management is key to beauty. Learn breathing methods, take yoga, meditate (even for a few minutes a day) and get regular sleep. Try taking a calcium and magnesium supplement before bed for deep restful sleep.

2. Hair

Getting regular trims is essential. Using a smoothing serum that works for your hair can do wonders to make your hair shiny and beautiful in a flash. Combined with a ceramic flat iron, your hair will look shiny and silky smooth in minutes, even if you didn't eat right or get enough sleep.

3. Hands & Nails 

Sleep with a heavy oil such as coconut oil, shea butter or cocoa butter on your hands overnight. Place cotton gloves over you hands to keep the oil in. Keep your hands moisturized during the day. Every time you wash them, moisturize. Keep nails trimmed and clean.

4. Face

Clean but do not over-clean your face. Never use soap, and only the most gentle, natural ingredients should ever be used on your facial skin. Exfoliate weekly and moisturize twice a day, no matter your age. Use a lighter moisturizer for younger, oily skin. Use a facial mask once a week, either clay based or a more moisturizing base such as honey. Remove facial hair if you have any, and remove it regularly. Keep eyebrows neat.

5. Exercise

Exercise regularly for both stress reduction and to keep your body toned. A relaxed, toned body is beautiful. Do something you enjoy when you exercise to achieve the best benefits.

A half day with the residents in Siloam House, Karak

Hey.... well its been awhile since myself  (Irlene) posted anything here. I am back again. Busy with the workloads. Long weekend now and here is one I would love to share with everyone - Bayer Co. Malaysia colleagues with the residents in Siloam House.

Who are they in Siloam?

The residents from Siloam are adult age from 18 - 50 years old who has intellectual disabilities and do not have any home because some of them have been neglected and rejected by family, orphans or those with aging parents who can no longer take care of them. These residents are given guidance and basic training in the activities of daily living such as self-help skills, personal hygiene, forming relationships and becoming a member of the family.

 My personal experience with Siloam House - I was assigned to organize and lead the Bayer team to run a charity program, venue picked - Karak. I was reading the site to understand more about the home, however I still believe I would love to see more myself than just read. Drove all the way to Siloam and fell in love with this place immediately, good getaway from the city, fresh air, well maintained farm - limau kasturi, durians, mangosteen, papayas, avocado and many more, river side with well kept guest house (you can go canoing too! ) and most importantly the warmth welcome from everyone in Siloam House. A little tea with Madam Lim (the lead of the home), showed me around and introduced the residents. I was touched and proud to see they are being well taken care by the care takers and seeing how these care takers dedicate their time and love for these residents. The residents are trained to do house chores - learn to prepare lunch, sweeping the floor, gardening (they maintained the big farm!) etc. I was so amazed to know that the residents pluck the limau kasturi, pickled, dried and some squeeze the juice and then bottled / pack it to sell in Karak town or church members. There and then I told myself I will spread the goodness of the home and get as many donations I can for the residents.

On the 14th of July, 50 people from Bayer and some of the family members went up to Siloam House bringing all the donations and spent some time with the residents. Mann, i have to say the residents were all so excited to see us, and all the donations that we brought with us. They talked , they sang, they were jumping of joy when musics are played.

Well, if you happen to be in Karak do drop by and pay a visit to Siloam House or a short getaway from the busy town in Siloam guesthouse by the river - in return you may give your donations in kind. Little games can cheer them up, a little sing a long can boost their spirits, a little contribution can fulfill their daily live quality, and most importantly these residents will always remember the little time spent with them forever.

BAKING TIME! - Colorful Cake

*DINGDONG-DINGDONG* Come in guys! :D
Okay... Well, this is partly for my sis Jo cos it's her birthday today. HAPPY 24TH BIRTHDAY JIE!!!!!

Jo with her cake :]

The process was a lil gruesome since it's my 1st time ever baking.. Normally i just bake using a ready cake mix. HEHE.. But it was all worth it. :D So, here's the 'Behind-the-Scene' of the cake... :p

Here's what you should prepare before baking:
Butter
Castor sugar (originally was supposed to be 210g)
Eggs
Vanilla essence
All purpose flour
2 1/2 tsp baking powder
Milk
Coloring of your choice (most people do the 6 rainbow colors:- red, orange, yellow, green, blue & purple)
*Do make sure the butter, eggs & milk are at room temperature. :)

Butter + cream-cheese filling:
Butter (i used half of it)
Cream cheese (the whole pack)
Icing sugar (depends on the sweetness you want)
Milk (put it bit by bit just to make it moist & creamy)
*My sis Irlene help me out on this so our measurements are not fixed. It's according to how sweet you want and how much cream your cakes need)

Method (my way :p):
Grease the baking tray & preheat the oven at 170'C.

A:
1. Cream the butter and sugar til it's light and creamy.
2. Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition til the mixture is also light and fluffy.
3. Add the vanilla essence.
B:
Sift the flour and baking powder.
A + B:
1. Add the sifted flour into the mixture bit by bit and do the FOLDING METHOD.
2. Once it's all done, finally add the milk and mix til well combined.

Once you've got the batter, separate it to different containers (depends on how many colors you're doing). I did 4, so i separated it to 4 different containers.

Mix the colors into the batter:

Pour the mix into the baking tray and bake it at 200'C til the sides of the cake turns brown OR until a cake tester/toothpick inserted into the center of each cake comes out clean. (It takes me about 20 minutes per cake.But it's depend on the thickness & size of the cake)

Remove cakes from oven and and leave it awhile to cool.

Start stacking those cakes! ;D

RESULT:

Hope you guys out there get to try your own Rainbow Cake (my version - Colorful Cake) at home. Last but not least, let's wish Jo again a HAPPY GREAT 24TH BIRTHDAY! ;)

MTV World Stage Live in Malaysia 2012

Hey ya'all!!!

Yes, my sisters (Joanne & Irlene) and i got to go for the MTV World Stage 2012 at Surf Beach, Sunway Lagoon this year. (AGAIN!) :p Well, as we all know the lineup for this year were Mizz Nina, Korean gurls - KARA, Korean-American - Jay Park AND the one and only, Justin Bieber. JUSTIN BIEBER!!! ARGHHHHHH!!!!! HAHAHAHAHA XD

Btw, we were kinda like sunbathing for a few hours.. Since they had to choose to opened the gates at 3.30pm and the concert only started at 6.30pm+, the wait was a lil gruesome. Okay, ALOT actually. Sis Jo almost felt ill but luckily she's okay. HEHE. Oh, Irlene was somewhere somehow not with us that day. She was with some*ehemehem*one*coughcough*else. :p Here's a picture while we were waiting for it to start.....

Ofcourse my sis, Jo and i were there for Justin. We became a Belieber for a day too! (though, this few days we kinda still humming to his songs XD). We even bought each of us a tag+badge of him for 10 bucks.. Belieber much... :D 

And *dum-dum-dum-dummmm* {dramatic effect} ............OUT FROM NOWHERE, JUSTIN BIEBER POP OUT!! @.@ And everybody SCREAMMMMSSSS!!!! (okay, maybe not everybody since most of the guys there hates him LOL)

Pictures, pictures...... :]

 Dancers and background singers getting ready.

 Baby, baby,  baby ohhhhh......

 Just finished performing his 'All Around the World'.

Performing one of his newest hits, 'As Long As You Love Me'.

Okay, there's still more pictures where he did acoustic performances 'Die In Your Arms', 'Be Alright' and 'One Time'. Here you go..... :)

Lastly, he ends it with two songs 'Never Say Never' and 'Boyfriend'. :D (well, the pictures are more blur due to my ignorance to snap it nicely. HEEEE.)

And so it ended just like that. Was hoping there's more..but oh well, this is Justin BIEBER we're talking about... It was well worth it to wait since i got to see his face so so soooo clearly. ;) #ICanOfficiallySayISeeTheBieber

As others performed (KARA, Mizz Nina & Jay Park), we slowly lost all our energy and had backache like hell! >.< But overall, IT WAS AWESOME! Here's the our-ugly-sweaty-self picture. ;]

Left: MEEE!! Right: Jo-N

-THE END-

*Sorry for the all-not-pretty pictures cos i was busy jumping and singing along. TEHEEEEE..... :)

**And also sorry that there's no pictures of KARA, Mizz Nina & Jay Park taken.

Self-pampering Weekend~

Yoohoo!

First time writing here.. Have always been updating my own personal blog http://sportyanne.blogspot.com but my sisters are killing me because I'm not contributing here at all..

So here goes~

This weekend is a self-pampering weekend for me as i start of the weekend with a work out in Gorgeous Gym in Bandar Puteri, a one-week trial pass. Although it is no Fitness First quality, but as the membership price is almost half of Fitness First, there's nothing to complain if you are more of a machine user.

Then on Sunday, went for a hair and scalp treatment with haircut for only RM 101!! The shop is located just beside IOI Boulevard Puchong. Reasonable price with good service =)

After the hair treatment, I went home to continue with self-facial starting with steaming, exfoliation and mosturising mask. At the end of this session, i can feel my skin clear up and brightens a little. I know i should do this every weekend for healthier skin but i'm just too lazy to =.="

So, this weekend i didn't managed to do any shopping or sight-seeing, but it was still a well-spent weekend. Happy Monday, peeps!

My new hairstyle.. Sis said looks dumb though =.=

~jo-n~
