This has is officially my all-time fav perfume. I can’t remember how many bottles I have finished but I am still not sick of CK ONE. I was trying to recall the first time I smelt this oh-so-lovely scent but the only thing I can remember is being hooked the instant this scent hit my olfactory system.

I love this scent because it smells fantastic on both men and women. This refreshing scent has sweet notes of pineapples, citrus, jasmine, rose and green tea. No wonder I love CK ONE so much as I happen to love all those smells as individual fruits and flowers. Although it is recommended for daytime wear, I squirt this on even for my evening functions as this scent is lovely without being overpowering.

My current bottle of CK ONE is reaching a dangerously low level. I was beginning to hyperventilate a bit at the prospects of running out of my fav scent. However, thanks to the wonderful world of online shopping, I found my refill at Amazon.com going for USD$26.82 (RM 94.50) for a 6.7 fl.oz. bottle. (200 ml)

At just USD$ 26.82 with FREE Super Saver Shipping, am sure this would make a great gift for any guy or gal. So anyone out there wanna get this for me? *Hinting not so subtly*

After many, many unsuccessful attempts to post this greeting in time for Hari Raya, here it is. Finally.

From all of us at vsHub,

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri

Maaf Zahir Batin

Daripada keluarga vsHub kepada keluarga anda,

Selamat Hari Raya Aidil Fitri

Maaf Zahir Batin

Bet you thought we forgot. No, we didn’t. We were just experiencing a little technical glitch. I know this greeting came a wee bit late but better late than never, right?

“Spread the love, not the virus” is my mantra these days. With a horrible disease like Influenza A (H1N1) claiming more lives everyday, personal hygiene should be everyone’s top priority. One of the methods that has been recommended by the health authorities is the usage of hand sanitizers. While there are many different brands of hand sanitizers out there, my personal favourite is the one by Bath & Body Works.

I love the pocket-sized PocketBac^TM Deep Cleansing Hand Gel as it is so portable that you can carry them in your handbag, laptop bags or even school bags. This small wonder contains natural ingredients and powerful germ killers that help you keep your hands clean wherever you go. The PocketBac^TM Deep Cleansing Hand Gel contains Vitamins B5 and E to nourish your skin and leaves your skin gently scented. I really adore the many different scents that this hand gel comes in. At only US$ 1.50 per 1 fl. oz. bottle (30ml), am sure it is a small price to pay to keep nasty germs at bay. Currently, Bath & Body Works has a 5 for $5 PocketBac Hand Gel special offer. With this wonderful offer, you can now have one PocketBac for each of your handbags or you can buy one in each scent.

I have sensitive skin and it took me years of trial and error (and not to mention $) to find the right skincare. Recently, my face reacted rather violently to my new environment. My face felt so irritated, itchy and I looked quite a sight with my red eczema-like patches. Even my normal skincare seemed to aggravate my skin.

I was out shopping with a cousin when we stepped into L’Occitane to get her face care. I casually asked the salesperson there if they had anything that may help my face. The kind lady recommended that I try their sensitive skin range, Shea & Organic Cotton. I was not willing to spend so much on something new as I was not sure if it would help with my skin condition. Fortunately, they had Shea & Organic Cotton Discovery Set. Brilliant! The perfect starter set at such an affordable price.

At L’Occitane’s e-store, this set is going for USD 18.00 only and has:-

1.  Ultra Comforting Cleansing Milk 1.7 fl.oz.

• This cleansing milk gently cleanses, removes makeup and tones in only one step, protecting skin from irritations

2.  Ultra Comforting Cream 0.17 oz.

• This gentle cream comforts and moisturises even the most Sensitive Skin. Day after day, redness is minimised and skin is more comfortable and resistant to environmental stress.

3.  Ultra Comforting Mask 0.5 oz.

• This richly textured mask becomes smooth during application for comfortable, hydrated and intensely soothed skin. Skin is instantly calmed, texture is softer and redness reduced.

I must say that I was impressed (and I do not get impressed very easily) with the almost immediate results. Soon after I dabbed some Ultra Comforting Cream on my red, irritated face, I felt some relief. My face felt soothed and the angry red patches reduced. Am happy to report that my face was almost back to normal after using it religiously for about 3 days.

I think I can stop searching for the perfect skincare now.
