這個冬天Dry都爆2之:超好用DIY 面霜

朋友建議我用雪花秀,話超潤用咗皮膚好靚!正當我準備跌落$深淵嘅時候,我個facial姐姐話佢係好work,不過含鉛量好高,唔可以長期使用。有好多護膚品都好多chemicals,塊面積聚越多會越來越差。話晒我都係個崇尚天然嘅人,聽完之後對雪花秀有啲保留。Facial姐姐仲叫我睇多啲美容資訊,唔好聽人話咩嘢好用就攞自己塊面嚟試。跟手就開始介紹佢賣緊個條organic skin care line... 下刪三百字。我一被人sell就乜都聽唔入耳,好快就離開現場喇。

Facial姐姐都唔係無道理,事因實在頂唔順自己塊面越來越多細紋,呢幾日不停research有咩護膚品又natural又好用。發現原來好多人都DIY!自己整skin care可以好肯定所有ingredients 都係天然嘢,無化學品。用咗好多時間上網學整face cream同埋eye cream,又睇咗好多essential oils同唔同base oils嘅功效同用法,越睇越high!又問過一個學過香薰治療嘅朋友意見,決定自己試吓整!

我照 A Blossoming Life  嘅做法,搵齊材料就即刻返屋企整呢隻"miracle" night cream 啦!

  • 1/2 tsp beeswax
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 2 tbs almond oil
  • 1/2 tsp of shea butter (or you can just use more coconut oil)
  • 1 tsp vitamin e oil
  • 1/4 cup aloe vera gel
  • 1 tsp honey (Try to get some local honey if possible)
  • 5-10 drops lemon essential oil
  • 1/2 tsp bentonite clay
全部材料都係對皮膚好好架!抗氧化抗衰老滋潤去皺!總之就堅啦!















照A Blossoming Life 嘅做法,將頭四樣材料煮溶溝埋,再放埋一邊等佢凍返去好似潤唇膏咁嘅texture。





















喺另一隻碗將第五至第八樣材料混和。




















將兩兜嘢mix埋再加最後嘅bentonite clay等佢杰身啲。呢個過程切忌用金屬碗金屬匙!





















佢係夜霜嘅原因係有lemon essential oil。用咗檸檬精華油就唔可以曬。所以如果要整day cream就唔好落檸檬精華就ok喇!睇咗七七四十九個youtube DIY片之後嘅總結係可以加少少用開嘅sunscreen做日霜嘅。

用後感:用少少就好夠!初初搽上面覺得太油,但係好快就吸晒!夜晚瞓覺前用絕對ok!而且好香,會keep注用!

這個冬天Dry到爆1

大概是到了青春不再唔補好易老的年紀,今個冬天好似特別乾。面上嘅細紋好清楚地話我知一直以來嘅護膚routine已經唔work!

同美容達人朋友求救,佢即時介紹咗呢隻超平eye patch比我!一合有成60片,都只係$138!日日用都可以用成個月,每日都係$4.6!而家用咗幾日,無話特別正,但係心理上肯定好過咗!有敷好過無敷嘅定律咁囉!等我用咗一個月再比個包膠大家啦!

Flower Power- a guide to office survival

So... a few days ago, I told my colleagues that we should totally do a theme for Friday casual wear day. Let's all wear floral prints! Something Hawaiian! Yeahhhh! Totally!!!

They were like... for what? That's really moliu lor.

Fine.

So today, I came into work in my very 80s jeans short jacket, complimenting my tight black long top showing off my curves. Non-floral. As soon as I walked in, I saw people in Hawaiian dresses, floral tops, floral lace knits... you get the idea. Those floral ladies came up to me and looked from head to toe trying to spot my floral print. PISSED. Walked off and saying loudly how I didn't go with the dress code while I told them to.

Oops. Sorry! (千頌伊 tone)

Constant bitching all morning from varies women actually got me feeling a little bit guilty. So during lunch before I rush for my Body Pump class, I went to Zara and grabbed a floral blouse, pumped & showered, then put on my new top. Then I thought I needed to go an extra mile to avoid pissing of women from the office. So I rushed to LKF to the staircase up to Levelz, where there's a florist there during day light (this is new for some of you clubbers I know). Counted and bought each and everyone of them a flower. Then rushed back to the office. Very productive lunch break!

At the sight of the flowers, those angry women were suddenly tamed! Go flower power!

Conclusion
Number 1: never pissed any woman off in the office.
Number 2: when in doubt, send flowers.
Number 3: if i'm a man, I'd be a ladies' man. LOL

Happy Friday everyone!

感動。驕傲。




















從前有一位舞蹈老師,年輕,有夢想,活力,重點係好靚仔!曾經迷上他,很崇拜。之後知道他開設自己的舞蹈學校,成為名人的排舞師。到近來紅爆的<狂舞派>,知道他成功了,但感覺不大。今天友人send了他參加<中國好舞蹈>的clip給我看。OMG!!差點忘了當年為什麼那樣迷!除了感動和驕傲,再沒其他了。

He reminded me once again how he melted my heart every time I watched him dance in his classes. Very proud of you Shing!

Project Juicing

DIY juice detox! The Juices are so good I wanna juice it once a week!



















Almond milk with banana
Green punch: celery, cucumber, pear, spinach
Red punch: beet, carrot, apple, ginger
Orange juice
Coconut water

It is a lot of chopping and cleaning to make your own juice. Good thing is that you know exactly what's in it, and it's much cheaper than ordering online.

Blue sky that I once took for granted

California's awesome weather might be the major reason why I grew up happy!

Number 1 Comfort Food

Jet lagged and hungry. Came to Denny's at 4am for my Grand Slam! Oh so good!! Grew up waiting on tables at a local diner in Reno, I have known the menu by heart. From the way they fold the silverware, jam stand arrangement, ketchup bottles refill, to the sugar packages ratio... It all meant a lot to me. Yummy and fluffy pancakes, links and crispy bacon, with perfectly done over-easy eggs. This meal was comforting on so many levels!

Neknomination


Don't know how/when/where/who started this neknomination thingy. It somehow got to a friend in Durban, KwaZulu-Natal, who nominated CLin in Seattle, USA. Who nominated ELin in Taipei, Taiwan, and WW in Gothenburg, Sweden. ELin then nominated me in Hong Kong. I then nominated JF in Hong Kong and Sivalove in London, United Kingdom. 

Not sure how/when/where/who it will end. Just love how it travels around the world within 24 hours to connect with all of us =)










Run Jenna Run!!!


To continue my 10km race story...

People told me not to run a couple days before that and I took the advice and beyond-- I stopped training a week before the race. LOL! Doubted I could ever run that far, but since the four of us signed up together, I can't flake on them. I just can't.


On race day, instead of going home at 6am, we got up at 6am for a change. It was a chilly 7C morning in Sheung Shui. We managed to get there and walked to the starting line RIGHT on time for the race. Told DC & Doublechin to wait for me at the finish line and they ran off, lost sight of them in the crowd shortly after we started. Bin Bin said he would jog with me at first, and then he couldn't take my snail pace and ran off into the crowd ahead of me. Hahaa... So there I was. Tired. Lonely. Out of breath... Then I saw the 2km sign. hahahahaa... Still freaking 8km to go. Many thots came and go during the race. One that stayed was, "Let's pick an easy target! I NEED TO CATCH UP WITH BIN!" Really didn't wanna be last so I ran. Ran and ran. Walked a bit and ran again. At the end, I didn't catch up with Bin Bin. Still the last person to finish as expected, but I was able to finished the race with 1 hour 9 mins 45 sec. Slow but proud :)
















January 19th 2014. The day I ran my very first 10km race!

快樂的早餐A




















小時候每日都會落屋企樓下嘅合作社食早餐。每日都係一樣食早餐A:火腿通粉腸蛋多士。今日約咗老豆食晏,竟然發現茶餐廳早餐供應時間至十一點半!而且仲有細個成日食個一個餐!食得好開心嘅時候,老豆笑住問我記唔記得細個有一次遲咗起身落樓下無早餐食,我就坐咗喺度喊!合作社老闆見到即刻叫廚房整番個A餐比我食。諗番起覺得呢份人情味好窩心!亦都成為咗我同老豆好搞笑嘅回憶。今日我同老豆食呢個早餐食得好開心!

要贏人先要贏自己之跑步篇



















跑步並沒想像中容易。

自問一直有做運動,ok健康,當快離港嘅朋友單單十一月時問我參唔參加一月個10km賽時我諗都無諗就應承咗,仲叫埋我個workout buddy瘀青膝蓋同埋朋友辮辮一齊參加添!仲喺run keeper set好咗一個星期練四次,好有信心可以用兩個月練跑同時減肥。十一月時跑咗三次之後好肯定地證實咗:我好唔鐘意跑,亦都跑唔到!接近放棄邊緣。

HEA咗一整個12月之後發覺原來無乜時間剩啦!好想放棄但係又好想同瘀青膝蓋一齊跑下去,又唔想輸比unfit的辮辮。同時好想同單單完成哩件事,當係比單單冧走前一個美好回憶吧。好!練跑去!

上星期六同瘀青膝蓋去咗香港公園跑上去寶雲道。唔好講少,我跑咗整整兩分鐘後就跑唔到啦!行一陣再跑上去,竟然有窒息嘅感覺!扯氣扯到自己都嚇親。嗰一刻覺得個肺只得個蘋果咁細,真心肯定我並唔係cardio嘅料子!好不容易行吓跑吓終於捱咗一粒鐘。之後用一個假期嘅時間平服挫敗感後決定再比一次機會自己,用龜速步伐配上強勁音樂嘗試連續跑個平地5km。結果我成功咗!

唔知我兩星期後可唔可以完成10km。其實關鍵再於我有幾硬頸,只要我唔想輸比自己堅持每次練跑都要比上次跑遠啲跑快啲我相信有機會完成一件我本以為好容易嘅事。

待續

2014 Resolutions















Happy New Year!

以前年年都會做年度總結,2013唔做了。過去就由它成為過去。2014新一年新開始!今年希望過得開心就好滿足了!

  1. 減十磅!唔係講少,只求去返一年前個正常磅數。務必要食少啲!多運動!
  2. 多啲陪Mallow。以往飛得太多,近來發覺Mallow老咗好多!開始怕終有一日無Mallow等我返屋企嘅日子,亦唔想佢等我返屋企係佢唯一可以做嘅事。
  3. 隨遇以安,要學懂不強求。保持好心情,發方正能量!就是要同正面朋友多聯繫。戒講是非(好難!少數密友除外[笑]),要多發覺別人優點。
  4. 食得健康啲,每晚12點前瞓。
要做足以上所有resolution,我個2014將會無得輸!!!
