Overall, I like this moisturizer because it is affordable and the quality is impressive. I purchase it directly from Mamonde Official Shop through @lazada_my Lazada Mall. This product is also available at Watson's but they just simply cancelled my order :(. In term of price, it is very affordable, which around RM91-194 (depends on current sale promotion) per set. I purchased during a special sale by Lazada. 

This box comes with 1 tube of ceramide intense cream (50ml) and  other 3 items, the mini ceramide intense cream, skin softener, and skin emulsion.

The packaging for ceramide intense cream looks like toothpaste tube which I like it because the whole cream is not expose. The cream texture is very rich but easily absorbed by the skin. The skin softener and emulsion does help to retain the skin moist and makes my skin feel like toink-toink.

This is my second time purchased this set. 

Mamonde also give away these free samples, Red energy serum - to recharge the skin, and  Blue chamomiles soothing repair cream - to sooth the sensitive skin.

Happy birthday @lazada_my

Shop groceries using Shop at Food Panda app

Buying groceries can become therapy but sometimes it is time-consuming. In my case, I usually go out with 5 items on the list, but end up I came back with a full trolley item. I just figured out a feature Shop on Food Panda application.

Here, you can see a list of shop around your housing area registered with Food Panda. You can see there is a promotional code: PANDASHOPS at the Shop home. You can use this code before check out. However, this code only available for the participated shop. 

In my case, I choose Tesco because the delivery charge is cheap, the item price is the same as in-store, and it can deliver within 50 minutes. I added some items into the cart and ready to check out. Don't forget to add the promotional code: PANDASHOPS. (Please read the terms and conditions)

(After 50 minutes)

All items ordered are safely delivered with a proper reusable bag packaging by Tesco.

We are in 2021

The year 2020 was supposed the year that people are waiting for their 'special' occasions. A special date, special launching, special wedding... all kind of special. We are just planning, but Allah knows and gives better. It's the year that people will remember but in different ways. 

It is the year of reset.

Covid19 virus attacks the whole world. Some countries went through lockdown, restriction movement order, self-isolation and many other mechanisms to minimize the infection from one person to another. 

Beautiful face and makeup are now being replacing with the face mask whenever we go out. 

The house that we always use to sleep is now our 24/7 life. We live our lives in the house, not the office. 

The kids can see their parents most of the time, not just during wake up and bedtime. 

The fancy cars just stay in the garage or parking lots.

We are in the Year 2021. Cases in Malaysia is still 1000-2000+ daily. Some already gave up. Some thought Covid-19 is just a conspiracy. 

Whatever your thought is, the disease is real. The front-liners who are working, leaving their family behind are real. They are not just leaving their house and take care of covid19 patients for fun or just because of their job. The job can be done without 'heart and soul'. 

The year 2020 teach us a lot of things. Be grateful for what we have. A good car is important, but a house is important too - basic human needs. Basic cooking knowledge is important - we can order from Grab and Food Panda but sometimes, the home cook is the best. If married, a good spouse is crucial to support mental and physical health. 

However, adaptation to the situation is an important action that we must do. It helps to stabilize our emotion and needs.

Musibah

Petikan daripada ceramah Ustaz Kazim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIG608YIrWI

1. Allah uji dengan perasaan takut - Takut miskin, takut hilang orang kita sayang, takut susah - macam-macam bentuk ketakutan.

2. Allah uji dengan perasaan lapar - Dulu tak mampu beli, tapi nak makan. Sekarang dah mampu beli, tapi tak boleh makan - penyakit.

3. Allah uji dengan kehilangan harta - kebakaran, hilang barang.

4. Allah uji dengan kehilangan nyawa - kematian.

5. Allah uji dengan buah-buahan tidak menjadi - kerugian.

Apabila kita diuji, sebutlah Innalillah (Sesungguhnya kami datang daripada Allah, dan kepada Allah lah kami dikembalikan) - cara Allah nak betulkan kita supaya kita kembali kepada Allah. 

Jadikan musibah sebagai iktibar. 

Adab melawat orang sakit

Petikan daripada ceramah Ustaz Kazim. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIG608YIrWI

Hikmah ziarah orang sakit 70,000 malaikat berdoa minta ampun bagi pihak pelawat.

Adab melawat orang sakit.

1. Jangan makan depan orang sakit, jangan makan di rumah orang sakit. - pahala ziarah tiada.

2. Jangan sebut mengenai kematian depan orang sakit. Tambah kesedihan.

3. Jaga mata.

4. Jangan duduk lama-lama ketika ziarah (kecuali kaum kerabat).

5. Tidak semua sakit perlu ziarah.

Apabila kita diuji, sebutlah Innalillah (Sesungguhnya kami datang daripada Allah, dan kepada Allah lah kami dikembalikan)
