My blog makeover

I have been struggling for about few days just to search for a new template for this blog.After editing and experimenting the new template the whole day,this new template is finally complete.The previous template was temporary one.Technically,I was looking for a new template with white background.I have been working hard trying to look for something like this.It pretty hard to get a nice template you know.I just felt the illustration is way too big don't you think so?And my post is kinda small now.Arggg!!Geram!!By the way,I'm hoping to be able to find a nice templates with better layout for this blog.

Fine Lines

I'm noticing I need to pay attention to the fine lines around my eyes these days.I have dry and oily skin and always try to use cream at night before bed but it seems the fine line still appear on my forehead as well.I had used lots of brand name moisturiser and wrinkle cream but none of these works.I have finally found the best fine line cream for my face.According to some Magazines,the best thing for wrinkles is using SPF sunscreen protection to minimize the sun damage on the skin.Few weeks ago,I've bought a set of Elizabeth Grant skincare treatment.I use it everyday and noticed a big difference.I fell in love with this product.My face complexion look healthier,brighter and the fine lines are diminished.I used to like Oil of Olay,Nivea Q10 and ponds products but I think Elizabeth Grant is worth to buy because the products contain Torricelum.

Torricelum is a formulation of vitamins, minerals and moisture enriched with substances.Luckily I don't have skin allergy,if you have skin allergy try not to use.If you have sensitive skin,try not to use Nivea Q10 because my mom used that before had skin reacted badly.The Elizabeth Grant Skin Care Treatment Line which is hypo-allergenic and well tolerated by all skin types including sensitive skins and combination skins.

Tips

Don't put heavy moisturisers around the eye area as it'll make it puffy.
moisturiser.

Moisturiser your skin everyday.

Do not smoke

Drink lots of water and eat get your vitamins A,C and E becasue antioxidant is very important

Stone of Heaven

Asian people believe that wearing jade is the good means of which people will be protected from bad luck, evil spirit and danger.Some Jade ornaments are used to symbolize wealth.But how to know if a jade bangle is real and not fake?My mom bought two Jade Bangles in her friend's Jade store.She told me that her friend gave her special discount on each of this bangle for only RM170 each.I think that's a bit expensive.I sell jewellery before and I know the rough cost of the Jade.I know she wants to buy something for me and my sister for souvenir.

My grandma loves to buy Jade.I got a lovely Jade pendant from her as a wedding gift.Real jade can come in a range of colours, from a green that is almost white to a green that is almost black.I am only talking about the basic Jade.It's hardly to compare the Grade of the Jade in bare eyes.My grandma believe that if the colour of the Jade turn darker that means it's real. Since Jade is a stone, it should feel cold even on a warm day.But to be completely sure, take it to a Jewellery or gemologist for a spectrograph analysis.You know we can buy those basic Kwan yin or Dragon Jade Pendant for less than RM30 each from the supplier?It's the most basic Jade the and the carving is gorgeous.One of my friend who is Jewelry wholesale gave me a little tips on buying Jade.He said China supplies small amount of Jade nowsday because they isn't any Jade stone left and most of the great and real Jade are from Burma.

Type A or Grade A
Natural Jade without treatment.

Type B or Grade B
Natural Jade treated with polymer.

Type C or Grade C
Natural Jade treated with enhanced color

Is wearing red all right

Yes!It's spring sales.I don't pretty like to wear red but who couldn't resist to grab this dress with just only CAD 4 dollar.It's made of polyester, super comfy and made in Korea.The style, cut, and material is pretty casual.Do you think this is the perfect color to wear regardless of the season! I always find red is an old color that used to be fashionable but not now but it seems that most of the fashions store are selling red dress.Is wearing red dress is for married woman only?The only thing is that the color RED.I don't think I will gonna wear this dress.Nope not me!Too scare to wear this out.Will keep this dress and give it away as a gift I guess.

Earth Hour

All cities in canada will go dark tonight that mark earth hour.Did your counrty do the energy saving" turning the lights off" today?This is the first time I have heard of it.Everyone who participate the earth hour willl turn off the lights today at 8 pm.I guess Thailand,Phipines and other Asia country already doing this.Earth Hour just a boycott on energy consumption.Saving energy is great and all, but turning off the lights for an hour is not going to do the world any big favours.In fact,this is just only a reminder to people to be aware of energy saving at home.I think it actually help the environment having everyone turn out the lights for an hour a day.What we should be focusing on, is how to adapt ourselves to the changing environment around us, and the changing energy sources.The world is changing and there is absolutely something we can do about it.Do you shut down all of your power, or only the lights?
