hair care~
hey all..
Today im gonna brag bout hair...I have thick black long crazy long hair..When I say is thick I don't mean thick thick it's crazy thick!I go crazy sometimes.but thats ok..Don't need no extensions no weaves..Take that Bee...That is the only only thing I think I can brag to her..Anyways..I love my hair and I do think that I take good care of it that is why I don't really need to trim and cut it frequently..I don't colour and I style them myself...at home..I just go to saloons to get it layered and that is it!So i have a few rules that i have to stick to to maintain my mane
1.Never ever and ever do anything permanent to your hair ie perm,relaxing,rebonding etc..You just have to resist yourself..I have the urges too..Lucky me I got great family and friends and even the hairstylists! whom always managed to make me don't do it.That is the main trick..Nothing permanent!Keep it in its natural state and it's gonna be good.
2.Be ready to sometimes put natural stuffs on your hair.Ok this sounds kinda gross but when I want shine.I put eggs on my hair before shampoo..Yes but it works!And one more think ..coconut oil..people will say eeuuww gross it smells funky yada yada yada..But hey!it is good for your hair and scalp!!my grandmother did it my great grandma worked it too!!ok so it's new school and we ain't got time to boil the coconut milk!Im gonna recommend this one product later and it smells good too.
3.Open your planner and find a slot of 30 minutes for hair mask time!This is very very important!A lot of people use hair mask but don't really let it sit a while to really work and show it's magic..There's plenty of things u can do while waiting like read,paint your nails,watch tv..etc
4.Never ever comb hair when it's wet!Use the wide tooth comb.
SO here goes my hair routine.Im in L.O.V.E with this 2 products which is REDKEN and also from THE NATURAL SOURCE.(or better known as TNS SKIN LAB)
First..shampoo..I always comb my hair before shampoo..I don't like the feeling of tangled hair when it's wet.
What I like to use is Redken all soft shampoo and the natural source high shine shampoo.My tips is change your shampoo every 2-3 months because your hair tends to get use to the proteins in the shampoo over a period of time and It won't work anymore.So I always change alternately.Remember to rub your shampoo on your scalp.Don't use nails!
Second comes conditioner..Conditioner is strictly for you hair not your scalp!Especially the ones with oily scalp!Please please apply on your hair only and try not to let it reach your scalp.What I use in redken all soft conditioner or TNS high shine conditioner.After applying take your wide tooth comb and comb your hair slowly to make the application all even!Rinsing is one crucial part to...make sure You clean properly.Don't leave any excess product on your hair cause this is one of the cause of oily scalp and dandruff!
Next comes the hair mask.As for hair mask try to do it at least once a week..As for me I do treatment for at least 2 times a week.Before I apply hair mask..of course i'd have to shampoo first..BUT!before that i apply my dear extra virgin coconut oil.wait for half an hour.shampoo condition then apply hair mask for another half an hour.I usually wrap my hair in a shower cap then cover with towel or sometimes just clip my hair and just sit in the bathroom with the shower on.The steam from the hot water helps the product to absorb into hair better!Bored of waiting??Then do something!like exfoliating your skin with a body scrub!I love redken all soft hair mask!
This is the coconut oil i use.It's from Bencoolen.You can get this in Jaya Jusco 1 utama.
After washing,try to detangle your hair using fingers then use the wide tooth comb.Then You would want to apply something as a leave in conditioner to keep you hair hydrated.As for me I don't really like the cream or gel based conditioner as I sweat a lot and It'll leave me feeling all greasy and sticky.SO i use Schwarzkopf Bc Bonacure hairtherapy Q10 satin spray.I love the smell and it helps stimulate keratins to increase the strengh of your hair structure.
Do ALL these steps and im sure It'll keep your hair soft and healthy!In A Few weeks the frizz will go away.Try not to blow dry so often too..Your hair will thank you for it..Azura..This post is specially dedicated to you!

proud to be a malay girl~
Hey all...
I have gotten lots and lots of people asking me about my ethnicity...Some said i look like a punjabi,chindian,indonesian chinese,chinese,anak mami bla bla bla....WELL IM NOT...some people also said im half borneo cause they know I was born in Sabah but deep deep in my heart i believe that i am PURE MALAY!yes I know the way i dress and act do not really mirror a typical malay girl..but I am deep inside..I love malay culture and traditions..I get excited about all these.What I love most is the traditional wear.Honestly I feel the most prettiest when I am wearing traditional wear.I don't get to wear it often you know because of modernisation..But during the eid or better known as Hari Raya Aidilfitri in Malaysia or malay weddings..traditional wear is a definite must!For those who doesn't know some of the material used is batik and songket and designs like kebaya,kurung,kurung pahang,kurung kedah etc.I will love it until the day I die.Nowadays,womens in Malaysia modernised their traditional wear using materials like silk,lace,thai silk,cotton and a whole lot variety of modern design that I personally think that will look awesome even on the PARIS RUNWAY!But my personal favourite would be the really really traditional old fashion design..People know P.Ramlee but his wife not really.She is one of my fashion icon.She is the late primadona Saloma.If you google her photos..you get to see how fabulous she is.Her hair, makeup(dark red lipstick and thick cat eye look),dresses and kebayas blew my mind.All you malay girls out there my advice is how far you go..don't ever forget where you came from.Your roots and traditions.Keep on making our legacy of fabulous fashion alive!
Love

sleeping beauty~
hey all..
oh my god.What is with me?I am so terrible at getting myself asleep at night.YES.I have been suffering sleeping disorder since the age of 15 and there's absolutely nothing I can do about it or at least get a proper sleep for more than 2 days.OK i know this post has NOTHING to do with fashion but it concerns beauty and well being plus I know a lot of people who can relate themselves to the problem I am having.The day before I slept at around 5 and I woke up at 8!Waking up early is not that hard for me but my main problem is i take long naps in the afternoon..I cannot help it.I just dozed off..and I end up staring at the ceiling for hours and hours at night.I just hate this because number

- I need to sleep early and get enough of it to get beautiful skin because everyone knows that skin revives itself when we go to sleep
- I get cranky and tired when I don't get enough sleep
- I feel that my day is wasted by taking naps in the afternoon/evening cause I feel that I can do much more
- I really really need to adjust my sleeping pattern because im gonna start going back to school soon and I need plenty of sleep to really concentrate in class
- I do not have strong will
- I take long naps
- I drink tea(which contains caffeine) at night
- I have so many things to do in my mind that sometimes I forget and only remember when Im tucked on my bed then..I cannot stop thinking about it
- Im a very very very light sleeper.A slight noise,light or movement wakes me up and I just cannot go back to sleep.
- Work with myself to get a stronger will power and wake up earlier
- Avoid naps..so friends and blog readers.Help me by requesting any kinds of topics and keep me busy and besties..please call me and harass me throughout the day so that I don"t go to sleep plus I would do activities away from my bed to avoid myself to have some zzzz time.
- I will never stop enjoying my tea but I will restrict myself from drinking tea after 5pm.
- From now on,I would get myself more post-its or any sort of reminders and write down whenever I think of doing something and finish everything before I go to bed
- I cannot do anything much to help my "light sleep syndrome" but to just make sure my door is locked to avoid people especially my mum to come in and out,silent my phone,turn off every light,and get rid of any source of light like the beeping light from laptop etc..
- Set a condusive sleeping environment
- Maintain consistent wake up and sleeping time
- Stay away from sleep stealing stimulus
- Exercise
- Cool of your body temperature
- Don't force yourself to sleep
- Avoid naps
LOVE
EZWANA EDDY

sorry for the late blogging ..It was really hectic today..first wake up very very early for appointment to dentist ..then found out I have to go through a mini surgery to remove my wisdom tooth...then to my personal doctor clinic to get medication (im allergic to penicillin and bacterium),then..i love this part...I WENT TO THE TAILOR TO MAKE BAJU RAYA!!!i know it's kinda early but my regular tailor gaved me warning that she won't do anymore tailoring till june!So i don't really have much time.Next,go to the bank to bank in my latest on9 purchase which i will blog about on maybe friday,then to the bank again to activate my on9 banking,then accompany my mum to bring her sick rabbit to the vet ...i think the female vet is in love with me cause she kept on asking my mum about me..then go to GIANT supermarket to get the cleanse tea for my dad(actually i've been secretly stealing his tea cause it works!!my tummy has never been this flat before...) next go home do some more on9 banking..take a nap..help my mum to update her facebook profile that took me SOOOO LOOONNGG ..then go and bake some bananas..made my mum go to sleep and talk and wish goodnight to my dear Hafiz..and now BLOG : ).SO what would be my topic today?hmm MAKE UP..yes make up..my favourite thing ever..ok so before i start..once my 2 dear friend that i love so much..zeng and clarissa..they gave me an idea..they want me to be the next Datuk Farah Khan..For those of you who don't know who she is..well she's great..she's got her own fashion boutique in KLCC and she brings in international designer items into Malaysia.Isn't that cool???ok so since Datuk Farah brought in stuffs like ensembles,shoes,bags etc I am trying to bring in International make up stuffs into Malaysia..My dream would be NARS!(since MAC is already in Malaysia)..But NARS wont be that easy so Im gonna start small first.Have you ever heard about a brand called Nyx?Ok it's a very affordable make up line from the United States(It's very very cheap there and when it reaches Malaysia it'll be more expensive but definitely cheaper than MAC) and I don't really think it's available in Malaysia as yet..but shipping is available.I found out about it when I saw a video on youtube by Juicystar07..She's a very very well known vlogger in the US where people actually pay her to go shopping and comment on their products: )well she tried the Nyx product and it works wonders on her. Iwill attach the link of that particular video for you guys to watch.I got excited and i ordered a few items to try..and i managed to get it shipped to Malaysia within 2 weeks.I am gonna try it and if i really really am confident with it I will start bringing more stuff in for YOU yes YOU guys!Do e-mail me or contact me on facebook if you are interested already : )

trip to the gym~
hey darlings,
aahhh what a day!i didnt go to the gym these past 2 days because im involved in my parent's company convo/annual dinner..so once it's over.."BACK TO WHERE YOU BELONG!"..SO ok i dragged myself there and do my usual 30 minutes running on the threadmill,30 minutes cycling and 30 minutes of weight lifting(i love it)..while doing my usual running suddenly i hear a woman shout..and when i turn..it's Alice the gym instuctor..she was being a commander ordering her slaves to go run on the treadmill with the speed of at least 8.5kmph...and i and the other hand merely on speed 7.2kmph..and panting like a gorilla..aahh what a shame!So Alice's slaves is girls with really really tall slender body and they are wearing those skimpy gym exercise attire that i only DREAM to put on...their abs is perfect!how i wish i have a body like that and being able to wear what they are wearing and I AM VERY VERY SURE that i am not alone in this one.Plenty of girls like me feel a little bit insecure especially at the gym when hot gazelles running gracefully on the threadmill next to us.So what i am gonna do today is share exercise tips to get those hot bodies and come out with great idea on how to style yourself to the gym/park to exercise : )
Choose how you want your body to look like proceed to A or B
A.Beyonce (slim and slender but still have those junk in the trunk)
B.Britney Spears(slim,toned and muscular)
A.Beyonce's workout routine
And after we get daa boddyyyy....now sexy hot exercise outfits..i find the ones from NIKE is fabulous!!
I love this kind of tops.Its very dry and breathable and not to mention very sexy..why not?show off your amazing abs..and pair it with
Yoga pants..very slimming and stretchable..or if you don't feel comfortable wearing pants you can always go with
running shorts...comfortable and very cute!rawwrrr.Not to forget the most important item is the running shoes..I always go for the light and feminine ones..i love purple so i would go for this
To look more fashionable..don't forget the fabulous gym bag and funky water bottles
For those gadget freaks get these too!
I JUST LOVE EVERYTHING!
Now one last thing..as we know it's not a very good idea to wear make up to the gym so I have come out with and idea on how to look pretty without make up..
before going to the gym wash your face thorougly pat dry and moisturise with tinted moisturizer..i love the ones from THE NATURAL SOURCE..them put on tinted lip balm and sometimes I put a lil bit of creme blush on the apple of my cheeks for a healthy glow...tie up your hair in a high ponytail..AND YOU ARE DONE!!!Now GET YOUR ASSES TO THE GYM!

I hate u zeng...anyways..skII is quite expensive and it's not my "time" yet...so here goes!
So that's about it.Very simple right.It's not that bad...and plus it'll save your money on frequent trips to go do facial : )Enjoy and feel free to drop in comments or questions : )
p/s:sorry for the bad quality images

I hate u zeng...anyways..skII is quite expensive and it's not my "time" yet...so here goes!
- ALWAYS ALWAYS and ALWAYS remove your make up first.I know some people who just wash their faces without removing last traces of make up...that is not cool!we don't want any clog pores that causes breakouts right.Yes i understand it is not easy especially with waterproof make up but hey..beauty is pain pain is beauty..so..the best way is to use oil based make up remover..I use Maybelline's make up remover for eyes and lips.It removes make up easily but leaves your skin a lil bit oily but that's ok since we're gonna cleanse the face anyways...BUT!if you don't like this try using non waterproof make up and just remove with a cleansing wipes..the ones from SIMPLE is very good.
- Step 2 is cleansing..It's always good to use a cleanser that suits your skin.I have normal to combination skin so choosing a cleanser is not really hard for me.I love using olay product so i just opt for the cleanser.It has this very fine microbeads that gently removes dead skin cell.SO I dont really have to scrub my face that often.(over scrubbing causes my skin to be very dry)
- Next step will be steaming....I love this because I've always suffered from blocked nose...and this method helps clear my nose as well..what you do is fill in hot boiled water in a big bowl..i love adding lemon juice into the bowl i don't know ..for aromatheraphy purpose?them drape a towel over your head and just let the steam penetrates into your face for at least 5 minutes.This will open up your pores for a more thorough cleansing : )
- Moving on....time to scrub scrub scrub..what i love to do is i get into the hot shower(with steam) and start scrubbing my face using FREEMAN'S facial creamy apricot scrub(in the pink tube).After around 3 minutes of scrubbing rinse with lukewarm water and INSTANTLY smooth supple skin : )
- THE MASK!yes again use a mask that suits your face.I don't know about you guys but my face changes its state from normal to dry and sometimes from normal to oily.How I know?
- well when my face is dry..my skin feels tight and itchy after cleansing and won't absorb foundation around my cheek area.SO,when this happen,i turn too FREEMAN'S facial enzyme mask in pineapple(in yellow tube) to restore radiant skin!try it!it works like wonder.
- when my face goes oily i can see blackheads on the tip of my nose and the my nose area starts to not absorb foundation..so my saviour would be FREEMAN'S facial clay mask in avocado and oatmeal to purge pores and smoothens skin..i share this with alllll my girlfriends : )
- Blackheads....don't u just hate it....have you ever talked to a person(or even yourself) with blackheads and could not resist picking on it.well i do.But apparently that's bad..only do it with sterilized blackhead remover and clean hands.I don't really like the idea on doing it so i turned to this one product that helps remove blackheads.INTELLIGE' sebum quick up and sebum remover mask by KOSE'.It works man!first apply the sebum quick up then the mask after 15 minutes..remove and voila!
- Last but not least,something i cannot live without is moisturizer.This is very important for your skin.I've always and will always love olay face cream.This is the only face cream that does not cause my skin to breakout and it's a wonderful make up base too!I have used this since the age of 15 and it has been 8 years..Nothing to complain about : ).Ouh one more thing please use separate creams for day and night.Both has different ways to nourish your skin.As for the day cream ..it has UV protection and at the same time brightens your skin.I always use this as a face cream and make up base.The night cream on the other hand moisturizes and has revitalising properties and really helps when you are having your beauty sleep.Trust me after using this for only 2 weeks you will see the difference : )

TOP 10 make up item a girl should NEVER leave house without : )
1.CONCEALER...THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IN THE WORLD!covers all the imperfections and
voila!perfect skin. My personal favorite would be MAC select cover
up in NW30 : )
2.LIP GLOSS...All the girly girl out there should have one of these...instant
face wake up remedy..my personal choice MAC lipglass in VIVA GLAM A4
3.LIP COLOUR...OK honestly i think asian girls especially malay girls like me
don't look good with lip gloss alone. I really do think that
we need a lil help from this magical wand called lipstick..i like
it long lasting so i love matte lipstick from MAC!
4.MASCARA...NOTHING MUCH TO SAY.i would seriously kill a person who refuses to wear
mascara when they already have eyeshadow on.my favourite is MAC zoomlash
in black : )
5.BLUSHER...i would recommend girls out there to get a soft pink cream blusher..
my personal favorite would be laura mercier's creme cheek colour in
OLEANDER.Instantly wakes up tired face and give's you baby-doll look.
p/s: 1 more tips...during a night out or camwhoring...apply creme blusher
on the apple of your cheeks then...apply shimmer on top...that's is how
those celebrites look like glowing angels in those photos!
feel free to drop any comments or questions
