cold sores and chapped lips



you know how sometimes you are just hanging out at the grocery store killing time and just checking out the stuff one by one? that was how i chanced upon this amazing BLISTEX medicated lip ointment for chapped lips, severely dry lips or even the persistent cold sore buster. it comes in menthol flavor and has a pleasant tingling feeling that would soothe your sore lips. i have been using this for 10 years now and never found anything better.


one winter my alluring flatmate's dorky husband had the worst cold sore ever. i offered him my Blistex medicted lip ointment and he never looked back.


i usually apply it when i go for my crew rest on the plane during winter.


yesterday i had this painful crack on the right hand side of my lip. of course just like the origins spot remover i have this lip ointment in my work handbag, in my home port and my flat. i applied it once yesterday evening...today the soreness is gone that is why i decided to write about it.


try this next winter...it might be your next bestfriend.

make ups away


i hate removing my make up. i don't like washing my face especially after the flight.when i have just finished a 15 hour flight i am so tired and lazy. i like the easy way out. i chanced upon the ponds clean sweep in costco. it is one of the best things that ever happened to my beauty regimen. it feels like your skin is getting a spa scrub treatment a the same time.
i love it. i have several packs in my drawers just to make sure that i will never run out of it. it only costs about $5.69 online. i usually get them from costco where they come in a box of 4 30 pcs per pack plus one of 15pcs per pack as a bonus. the fast way to erase your make up without even washing your face. it normally takes me two towelettes before i can completely remove my make up. i use both sides before i throw it away.
totally worth it!

quick fix




here are some of my beauty secrets......sssshhhhh not everybody know this.

when it is that time of the month a tiny bump normally appear on my t-zone area either before or after. i have a magic weapon for that. even before that darn thing comes out as soon as i feel the painful bump and notice the reddish swelling coming out, i reach out for my reliable ORIGINS Spot Remover. i have tried Lancome Spot Corrector and Balea stick on from Germany and i swear that this thing works like magic. it stings a litte but it is very effective. whenever i see someone who has pimples i offer it immediately or recommend it to them.

i keep one in my make up kit, one in my home port and one in my second home where i am based in. my mom loves it too. my best friend bought it and stuck with it. you have to at least try it before you say that it doesn't work. i apply it to the pimple a couple of times a day. it magically disappears even before it comes out. if it is fully out however i still apply it to the affected area. the pimple dries up much faster. the best thing is it is only $11.00! how can you go wrong? try it today!
