Many dreamt of visiting the beautiful Maldives; where the lagoon sparkles in a teal blue shade and the beach a sandy white. Said to be one of the prettiest place on Earth, it is not surprising why it is a popular spot for weddings that is just a 4 hours flight away from Singapore. I attended Pris's lovely, private wedding on Centara Island Resort and it was truly a beautiful moment that would be etched in my memory.

Naturally, I have a tanner skin tone than many friends around me and daily encounters with urban pollutants, plus the catching up of age contributed to a duller, looking skin. My skin was lacking oxygen; a vital role in cell regeneration. Thankfully, something hopeful came through my mail, something to fizz up my skincare routine, something I 'b.liv' will help many achieve brighter and healthier skin!

Amidst the hectic adult life, it is always an enjoyment to rewards oneself with a pampering session every now and then. Thank you Samplestore for sending me to a rewarding facial session with Lynn Asthetic; where every aspect of the session was nothing but satisfying. Service, comfort level and result. Checked. Checked. Checked.

Is your skin prone to acne attack? For someone with combination skin type, I am always on the lookout for skin care products that effectively helps to control acne and other possible skin outbreaks, and I have with me Hiruscar's Anti-Acne dermatological skincare range, which do wonders to acnes.

Apart from treating wounds, minor burns and skin infections, aloe vera also contains properties that assist in improving minor skin conditions such as dry or flaky skin; which is why they are widely used in beauty products.

Cathy Doll Aloe Ha 2 In 1 Peeling Pack contains 60% organic aloe vera, age-defying fruits and herbs extracts that renew, refine and restore your skin's radiance. The most appealing factor about the product is the ability to use it in two different forms! It helps to removes skin impurities and calms irritated skin conditions through deep skin nourishment and dead skin cells removal.

Usage 1 – Cleanser. For cleansing, apply the gel solution onto your skin and gently massage for 3 to 5 minutes before washing it away with lukewarm water. Usage 2 – Face mask. Beside cleansing, this product can also be used as a nourishing face mask.

The Cathy Doll Aloe Ha 2 in 1 Peeling Pack comes in a clear, light gel state that is cooling to the touch. Although the solution comes in a gel state, it does not feel heavy or thick on the skin. Upon application, the light weighted gel breaks into a thin layer of cooling scrub that is easy to apply across your skin. I have used the product in its 2 different usages and frankly, I enjoyed using it as an overnight face mask. After leaving it on for a night, there was an instant soft and supple touch to my skin. It also helps to improve skin breakouts by reducing spots!

Some time back, I took an impromptu break from my hectic schedules and flee away to Penang. Settled the ticket within a day and flew solo a day after; that was how spontaneous the trip was and I have to say it felt really great! Huge love to my colleague who invited and hosted me. Thank you E and family!

Now, whenever someone mentions Penang, the street murals of George Town will never be left out of discussion. Similarly, my host had that planned out for me, but before anything else, they drove me to a local Rojak stall to kick start my Penang trip.

Slightly different from the one I've known all my life; Penang's rojak is a concoction of fruits (Pineapple, guava, green mango etc.) with a twist of thick shrimp paste sauce. Definitely a sweet start to my adventures!

I absolutely adore the Muah Chee (Glutinous Rice Balls) sold by this uncle in the most traditional method I know – on a motorbike. A nostalgic scene you don’t get to see anymore back in Singapore. You can easily know that he’s there because that strong sugary, roasted peanut fragrance is unmistakable and unavoidable. Unknowingly, you will drift towards his stall haha! Uncle only have a bucket of steamed glutinous rice dough, I suppose when the bucket is emptied, he closes for the day.

These glutinous balls are the softest I had in a long time, not very braces friendly but still a wonderful snack anyhow. Served warm and chewy, these snack balls are rolled over finely chopped roasted peanut and fine sugar. A simple yet satisfying food.

Apart from immersing into the culture, what else to do when you are in Penang other than stuffing yourself silly with all the amazing Penang delights? Dinner was settled at Lebuh Kimberely night market; also located within George Town. My excellent host sat me down and soon returned with a table full of food. Penang laska, Dim Sum, Yong Tau Fu soup and a childhood dessert! - Peanut Soup!

Heritage buildings are easily spotted in Penang, but there is this particular one that is frequently spoke about – China House. Known as the longest café in Penang, China House host several cafes, galleries, restaurant and shop etc. With over 10 different selection of cakes to choose from, Beach Street Bakery is the paradise for people with sweet tooth. Apart from cakes and pastries, they offer ice-cream as well! Took our cakes and settled down in Vine & Single bar, where my host generously ordered champagnes and craft beers to go with the desserts. Now, that's how holiday nights should end 😉
