If I had to recall when my depression started, I would think it was in 2014 when I first knew that I was pregnant. My pregnancy was great news for our whole family since the baby is the first grandchild on both my parents’ side as well as my in-laws. I was also excited about this new life as me and my husband had been trying for a baby for some time and we knew that I was pregnant just one week before when we were about to undergo fertility tests. Unfortunately, 2014 was a year that brought about so much changes and trauma in my life. Just one month after knowing that I was pregnant, I went ba ..read more

Hi guys, I haven’t been writing for a while and I think that I’m ready to start writing again. However, I doubt that I’ll be writing about skincare for the time being. In 2020, I discovered that I was having depression and I was also seeking treatment. I have decided that I would like to use my blog as “treatment” for myself to understand my own thoughts better and work through my feelings, whether they are positive or negative. I think that maybe my posts going forward might be a bit “depressing” so I apologise in advance for that. If you are currently subscribed to my blog and want to unsubs ..read more

I resigned from my job last week.. It was the first time throughout my 12 years of working professionally that I quit my job before I get a new one.. I felt liberated and yet incredibly anxious at the same time.. I was always the planner, the careful meticulous planner who doesn’t like much surprises.. My colleagues were quite shocked that I quit my job, especially at this point in time when the economy is so bad and lots of people are retrenched or couldn’t find any jobs.. I surprised even myself.. I realized that something was not quite right with me since 6 years ago after I gave birth to m ..read more

Hi guys, this is another long overdue post that I found in my “pending” folder from way back in May 2019.. ^_^” Anyway, this product is one that I found while browsing instagram back then and it was a new product at that point in time.. I had a hunch that I would like it since my skin really likes the Dr Jart Ceramidin range so I bought it online from Korea.. Since then, I think I had already gone through 3 to 4 bottles of this products so you might guess that I really do like it a fair bit! In fact, I think that Dr Jart’s ceramidin cream mist is the bomb! So why do I like it? Just take a l ..read more

I can’t remember exactly when I started losing interest in stuff that I used to enjoy.. But I think it was around 3 years ago.. I first lost interest in my job, then I lost interest in all the other things that l like.. Its as if I was numb to everyone and everything. I don’t feel much sadness or joy or even much emotion. But there was an emptiness inside that I tried my best to fill either by buying skincare or makeup or clothes or bags.. I would enjoy those things for a while but then the numbness would set in again.. I told myself that maybe I needed a change of working environment so I cha ..read more

The bottle is a bit funky looking because I’ve almost finished using it! *sorry!* Hi guys! I’m finally back after such a long hiatus! If you’re curious about why I was gone for so long, let me just tell you that so many things happened in 2018 that my head was left spinning. I got a new job, got pregnant with my second child and gave birth, and I also bought a new house. *Eeeee* Anyway, now that I’m back, I’ve got a review of a facial oil that I’ve been using for almost 6 months or more. Read on to find out more! Ok.. Maybe 2018 didn’t leave my head spinning to this extent.. Lol.. I’ve always ..read more
