  Having large pores makes you feel more insecure as people can see your skin is not smooth and kind of like having many small holes in your face. Obviously, large pores are a serious problem that you need to fix. Honestly, before I know this method minimizing large pores’ appearance is not very easy. What causes the large pores? I am getting it because of this: too much steaming my face popping my acne But for some people, large pores come from their genetics. According to a 2016 study by trusted Source, the main causes of large pores are: Excessive sebum: This is when a person’s sebaceous gland produces a lot of oil, leading to oily skin. Decreased elasticity around the pore: This is when the skin becomes less supple. Increased hair follicle volume: This is when the pore at the end of the hair follicle becomes clogged. Can you close your large pores? No! You can’t close your pores completely. You can only lessen the appearance of your pores. Our pores are open for a reason. After so many skincare products I have tried and even putting ice on my face every day, but nothing works! We should never give up finding the solution as we will find the solution, in one fine day. Believe me! Which is for you today hehe HYDRATION!!! Easy huh? After everything, the secret is enough water in your skin and body! When your skin and body have enough hydration, your large pores will appear lesser. I would say you need to change to a hydration skincare line and drink enough water so your skin can appear healthier. Easy and simple right? Yeap that’s it! I struggle with drinking enough water so I add supplement to give my body deep hydration and it worked! Of course, I changed to a hydration skincare line too. This combination is perfect to hydrate my skin and body. Be consistent for a month to see the result. Try this and see how it works for you. Don’t forget to share with me the result after you try it okay? Much love 😘  

When special cells in our body are unhealthy or damaged that’s when you will get pigmentation. These special cells make melanin production. Melanin is a substance in your body that produces hair, eye, and skin pigmentation. The more melanin you produce, the darker your eyes, hair and skin will be. The amount of melanin in your body depends on a few different factors, including genetics and how much sun exposure you had. Melanin also absorbs harmful UV (ultraviolet) rays and protects your cells from sun damage but keep in mind that melanin alone isn’t enough to protect your skin from sun damage. That’s why it’s so important to wear sunscreen and appropriate clothing whenever you’re outside. Some people make an excess of melanin. This is known as hyperpigmentation, and it’s harmless. People who make too much melanin usually have patches of skin that become darker than the surrounding skin. So is it possible to stop your melanin production? It’s not possible to stop or permanently lower your body’s melanin production without regular skin-lightening treatments. You can lighten and perhaps remove existing hyperpigmentation, but it may return. So consistent skin lightening treatment would help reduce your pigmentation and when we say consistent it is obviously maintenance. If you can afford laser treatment go for it. But if you can’t, I have a new simplest solution for you at an affordable price. You can either consume whitening supplements only or both consume whitening supplements and apply whitening skincare products. Make sure the products are certified and Halal because we don’t want more damage to our skin. Look for supplements the main function is focused on whitening and skincare products whose main function is focused on whitening too. Choosing the right function surely will help your skin problems. I can’t suggest you whitening skincare products that help with pigmentation because I have never tried any but I can recommend whitening supplements that really focus on the whitening effect and help reduce the appearance of your pigmentation. It has 15 premium ingredients mixed together to help whiten the skin and help reduce melanin production. The important part is the whitening supplement is certified by Halal and the Ministry of Health (MOH).   After 1 bottle result   After 1 bottle result These are the results after consuming one bottle only. The results depend on our bodies and skin. Some people get a faster result, some get a slower result. It really depends. But mostly they will get results within one bottle. It’s not easy to remove pigmentation so don’t get demotivated and trust the process okay? If they can get the result, you can too. Go check out the whitening supplement for more information and give it a try. Don’t forget to share with me your skin journey with the product. I would love to know. Much love 😘

Once you successfully removed your acne, you are now finding a solution for your acne scars. If not, you are not reading this 😁 Acne scars can be removed in a few ways such as by using skincare products, laser treatment, or taking supplements. I am going to share with you the cheapest way based on my experience. I have tried Vitamin E before to remove my acne scars and it has shown results but I find it very hard to maintain with Vitamin E. I am talking about pure thick texture Vitamin E in oil form. And the smell is a little bit uncomfortable. If you wanna try using Vitamin E oil, you go for the highest IU. The higher the IU, the better for your scars to reduce. I find it very hard to sleep with Vitamin E on my face. My pillowcase will get very messy unless you can sleep very still and not move at all. I would suggest you go for any topical products that have a whitening effect as they will lighten your skin as well as your scars. Usually, skincare products contain Vitamin C. Vitamin C is a famous ingredient when it comes to whitening. It is proven effective in whitening the skin. There are many Vitamin C serums on the market that you can try. You can opt for Vitamin C ampoules as it penetrates deeper than the serum. If you have normal acne scars, it is way easier for you to remove them but some people who have deeper acne scars, need to treat it using both ways inside and outside. I would highly recommend people with deeper ance scars consume supplements to repair their skin from the inside so that the topical products they used will work more effectively. Honestly, even for normal acne scars, the combination of consuming supplements and applying topical products is way more effective than only using topical products. Down below is the products that I love. After trying other products, I will go back to these ones as their results are just WOW! to maintain my skin from getting acne – acne spot treatment & Diamond Glow collagen supplement to lighten and remove my acne scars – Diamond Glow collagen supplement & night treatment moisturizer Pro Tip: You need to always keep your skin and body hydrated to make sure the products you used effectively work. Either drink enough water, use hydration skincare or consume supplements to give you the nutrients you need. A dry body and skin tend to work slower than hydrated ones. So this part is very crucial for you. Diamond Glow + acne spot treatment result   Diamond Glow result   Diamond Glow result   These are the results of the Diamond Glow collagen supplement. Treating your inner body is a must as many skin problems come from unhealthy inside of your body. So in order for you to maintain clearer and healthier skin forever, you need to consider taking collagen supplements as they will provide your body with extra nutrients that your body really needs. Especially when we grow older, our body produced lesser and lesser collagen. Read up about how important collagen is for healthy skin and body. You will find so many facts and proven results from taking collagen. You can read my other blog post where I share my hydration skincare routine and products that I used here. If you decided to try my method, please share with me how it works for you. I would really love to know if it helps lighten your skin or not. You can share it in the comment section below okay.

Even one small acne pops up on our face we are already feeling anxious, aren’t we? Thank god I found these products! I have tried so many skincare products to fight acne-prone skin but I couldn’t find any acne skincare line that works for me. In fact, it dried my skin more and caused more excess oil due to dryness. More oil = clogged pores Clogged pores = more acne! Omg so stressful! I feel you. So desperate to get rid of them as fast as we can and end up trying more products and causing even more damage to the skin. Especially people like me that don’t have the patience. I went to Innisfree and they suggested I use a hydration skincare line. I tried it but the result is too slow. They explained that our skin needs hydration to fight acne. Makes me wonder why in the world there are so many acne skincare lines in the market that make our skin drier when we need to hydrate the skin to fight acne. So I did some trial and error with a few brands. Now I know that I need to hydrate my skin but I also need to dry the acne. How do I do this? So I changed my cleanser to a hydration cleanser, and hydration toner, and add spot-on treatment for my acne. The more hydrated my skin, the easier the spot-on treatment to work on my skin. And I also know that I need extra body hydration for the products to easily absorb into my skin. So I add a hydration collagen supplement to help in absorbing the skincare products. With only cleanser, toner, spot-on treatment, and supplement for my night skincare routine it has helped me to get clearer and healthier skin. The result is overnight yes! When your body and skin are fully hydrated, any products are easily effective. During the day I used the same cleanser, and toner and I only apply sunscreen spf50. That’s all. I don’t want my skin too moist as it will make my skin oily. As I said before, oily will makes your pores clogged and lead to acne. So I only use sunscreen. I find it enough for me. You don’t really need too many skincare steps to get your dream skin. Find what works for you. The key is to hydrate the inside and outside body and find ance spot treatment to dry up the acne. It is very crucial to treat your inside first in order for the skincare to work. So yeah try this method and don’t forget to share with me how it works for you.   This method worked for me. Try it!        

Having a dark underarm and not getting lasting solutions to brighten it is forever a problem for everyone, especially women. I can assure you none of us would be happy to have dark underarm and we are dying to try any ways to brighten them. I know it because I used to have dark underarm too. Especially when we are married. Oh my, we become more insecure to lift up our hands as it will show not appealing dark underarm even from far. We need to be comfortable and confident around everyone so this problem needs to be solved pronto! I have tried laser to be honest and the result was remarkable but the price to maintain is just too much for me. If you have the budget go for it! It worked! How many sessions you need depends on your underarm. The darker it is, the more sessions you need. Pro tip: when you are under laser treatment, DO NOT wax to remove the hair! It will burn your underarm and it will turn black! Please use razors and shave them. The other best solution is whitening scrub. A whitening scrub that can be used daily to get a faster result without irritating your skin. This is as far as I know the first in the market, a scrub that can be used daily. I love the fact that it can be used daily because we are using deodorant on a daily basis. So we need to remove the deodorant chemicals from our underarms daily too. I tried for the first time scrubbing it gently on my skin and leaving it for 5 minutes to let it absorb. Guess what? After only the first usage, I can already see my underarm is brightened! After the first usage only guys! I need like few sessions for the laser to see it whiten but this product only needs a one-time usage to show the result. Obviously, I keep on using it and remember to always scrub it gently because we want to use it on a daily basis. We don’t want to tear our skin by scrubbing too hard. Please no! Keep it steady and gently. I just love the smell of this scrub! It smells peach and the texture makes it easy to scrub. It doesn’t use sugar. The scrub is using sea salt which we all know sea salt has many benefits for the skin. One major benefit of using sea salt in your skincare routine is the boost of trace minerals it offers your skin. The trace minerals in sea salt include magnesium, calcium, sodium, and potassium — all of which aid in optimal skin health and function. The scrub has 18 active ingredients to help smoothen and whiten the skin. You can also apply it to any dark body parts except for your face. Your dark knees, elbows, neck, toes, and any other dark parts. The benefits are just amazing for the skin: BENEFITS Whitening Removing dead skin cells Smoothing & softening dry skin Smoothing razor bumps Freeing ingrown hairs Promotes skin hydration You can feel it instantly after using it. I’m going to share a few feedbacks from customers who purchased it down below for your reference. Oh yeah, they are giving FREE 10 days body & mind detox program worth RM149 for this week’s promo. So grab yourself one tub and feel the difference yourself. Get the underarm whitening scrub and don’t forget to share with me your feedback. I would love to know how it helps you. Please share it in the comment section down below. Let’s lift up our hands with confidence 😍 Much love 😘              

I struggled with oily skin for a very long time and it took me years to find the best skincare routine that suits my skin. My experience would definitely help you. Oily skin is a major problem that will lead to many other skin problems like acne, blackheads, whiteheads, shiny face, and many more. Finding the right skincare routine is not easy like seriously. I believe we constantly try new products and sometimes it makes it worst. I feel you. I hope my experience with oily skin could help you find the right skincare routine. When we have oily skin, the first thing we think is to make it dry where which will cause even more excess oil.  Do you know that you can get oily skin because of dry skin? Yeah! So what you need is to balance your skin pH level. How do we balance it? Toner usually helps on balancing the skin’s pH level when the cleanser has already dried off your skin’s natural moisture. I found that even hydration cleansers sometimes dried your skin off. So weird right? You’re supposed to hydrate my skin hellooo 😂 I have been skipping toner for a very long time and this is bad! We should always include toner in our skincare routine as it helps balance skin pH levels and it helps clear our pores. So I highly recommend hydration toner. Usually, hydration toner is based on rose or green tea. So far these are the best ingredients to hydrate the skin. Pro Tip: Don’t use cotton when applying toner. Take a few drops of the toner on your hand and apply it to your face using your hand. In my experience, swiping using cotton will only make our skin dry and cause irritation. I always apply toner twice as I have oily skin because of dry skin. So I need to hydrate more my skin so that it will not be too dry. Got it? Cleanser! This is the crucial part. I believe this is the hardest part. It took me years to understand cleansers. Like I said, never go for a cleanser that will dry your skin like a cleanser for acne skin especially. Acne skin cleansers usually will make your skin very dry. First, you will feel relieved not seeing the shiny face but after a while, your skin will be too dry and tiny bumps will start to pop because of lack of hydration. Can you see something here? Our skin needs to be hydrated for it to appear clear, healthy, and not shiny. But guys, I didn’t found yet a hydration cleanser that suits me. As I said, even hydration cleansers dry my skin off. So I go for a very mild and gentle skin cleanser with no soap. Highly recommended Cetaphil. Yes, it may feel like it didn’t cleanseyour skin but it does. You are just used to soapy and thick texture cleansers. I feel like that too so I add cleansing water before I cleanse my skin using Cetaphil. But I also tried without the cleansing water, and my skin is more hydrated! You can try and error this part to see what work. And please choose cleansing water that will still hydrate your skin after using it. I recommend green tea based. It will still lock the moisture. Next, you may feel like oily skin doesn’t need to use moisturizer right? You are wrong. You still need to include them in your routine but find a moisturizer that is based on gel type. There are cream and gel-type moisturizers. Best use gel type as it suits oily skin more. The cream type suits people with dry skin as the texture is thicker. I used to not be a fan of sunscreen because every time I used sunscreen my skin will be more oily and shiny. It feels very uncomfortable. Do know that sunscreen helps treat your skin. I can say that most sunscreens have treatment agents in them. The higher SPF the better to protect your skin but you gotta be careful with the texture. There are also 2 types, gel, and cream. I rather use the gel type with lower SPF than use the cream type as it will make my skin too oily and acne will start to pop up. So let me simplify it again for you here: Use mild and gentle cleanser as it will not irritate and too dry the skin (too dry can cause more oil) Use hydration toner to balance the skin’s pH level Use moisturizer gel type if you have oily skin, cream type if you have dry skin that caused oily skin Sunscreen gel type if you have oily skin, cream type for dryskin that caused oily skin The choice that worked for me: Cetaphil gentle cleanser Innisfree green tea hydration toner 5 in-1 Hada Labo UV protection + hydration Diamond Glow skin collagen supplement (15 ingredients to hydrate the skin) My skin result Before: Oily skin because of too dry and of course acne prone skin The key here is hydration (water)! Our skin needs enough water to appear clear and healthy. Same with our body, lack of water will cause so many health problems. If this has helped you, please share it with me in the comment section. I would love to know if you have new tips for me too! Much love 😘
