Bio Oil wants you to be confident with your own skin #makeyourmark with Bio-Oil

By 靜涵 ♥ - April 11, 2018

Could Bio Oil finally be the solution to my scars and uneven skin tone? Are you looking for something that can reduce your scars? In my next post, i'll do a product review for Bio Oil stay tuned!* Last month, Bio Oil Malaysia pays homage to Six Strong remarkable women of Malaysia who have made a difference in their respective niches while promoting positive body image, self-love and empowerment to all Malaysian women out there with its latest campaign called #makeyourmark

#makeyourmark is all about to realise that the society is increasingly developing an unhealthy and unrealistic perception of the perfect body that results in a lot of insecurities and negative body image, the #markyourmark campaign urges women to embrace their body as proof of the journey they have endured to become the women that they are today while striving to be better and better every day. It is all about empowering women to go for their dreams while being comfortable in their own skin. The #makeyourmark campaign is the first part of the #iamremarkable campaign which will run through the entire year of 2018

You will ask what is #iamremarkable again?

The #iamremarkable campaign aims to remind all women that every step towards greatness is an unforgettable journey. Each triumph joy, dissappointed, grief, laughter is etched in our memories and hearts and are what defines who we are. Most times, though, we find our journeys 'etched' in our skins as well; in the form of stretch marks, wrinkles, blemishes and scars. #iamremarkable urges women to embrace their journeys and uniqueness with Bio-Oil by their side, to take care of the marks on their skin; to never stop being the remarkable women they are.

These are the inspirational quotes from iconic women.

“时时刻刻做到最好，时时刻刻保持诚恳的态度。我相信，如果我们诚恳地待人接物，好事自然会来到面前。除此之外，要勇敢做自己，别尝试扮演他人。自信地接纳自己，依循自己的热忱，全力以赴地追寻梦想。我今天所做的都是我所追求的，我也热衷于完成这一切。像我这样一个年轻女子去开创事业，很多人对此难以置信，且认为我无法成功。他人的意见确实左右了我，但家人、朋友及员工给予的支持，我得以梦想成真。

Bio-Oil启发我积极进取，也让我忠于自己。看见身上的伤疤，心中难免感觉难受，但有了Bio-Oil，我变得好看多了，也令我重拾信心。千万别被疤痕打倒，无论它是有形的，抑或无形的。多年来所面对的种种阻难，让我学有所成，愈趋成熟，在应对挑战时显得更有信心。对自己要充满自信。身为女性，我们要学会拥抱与众不同的自己，在生命旅途中寻求胜利。”- Aamal Farhain

“了解你的自我价值；你是谁、你代表什么。了解你所需，了解你如何追梦（若然太小，那不是一个梦想！）、何时达标。现阶段，时间管理肯定是我的一大挑战。养育一个两岁半的孩子，肚里怀着七个月的宝宝，我身为一位职场妈妈，需要做好时间管理，才能顾及我最亲密的他们。我设定时间表，按时作息。依照优先顺序办事、拥有可仰赖的支柱及适当的个人时刻，是我时间管理的关键所在。

兼顾家庭、职场等许许多多的事物，我忙得自顾不暇，幸好我知道，拥有Bio-Oil可为我减轻负担。我让它发挥作用，以天然油来好好照顾我的肌肤。除了焕新及滋养肌肤，我用它来涂抹肚皮，预防产生妊娠纹。它很滋润，而我特别喜欢它不粘腻的清爽感觉。” - Elaine Daly

* NADIA HASBI, Founder of Fit Rebel

Nadia Hasbi

Fit Rebel创办人

“从企业公司跻身企业家，设计运动服、创立个人品牌，是我生命中的转捩点，为我带来许多学习的机会。

我从中获取了一个非常重要的领悟，即是我们必须勇于追梦。可有时候，我们的梦想过于盛大，似乎遥不可及，这是挺吓人的。我建议把梦想细分，依循可行度着手，并逐步迈向你的目标。

我的第二堂课，是学会认为失败是史无前例的好事。当我决定创造世上最完美的运动服之际，我毫无经验，也不知道自己在做什么。于是，我经历了多次失败。但我很快地认知失败是伟大的，因为每次失败以后，我学有所得，也变得更好。每个失败都让我勇敢前进。

Bio Oil真是一个神奇的护肤专家，它为女性的肌肤提供最佳护理。它类似婴儿油，但极其好闻，而且不油腻，让肌肤吸收更容易。我对它极度推崇！”- Nadia Hasbi

MADAM MOLLY KHOO, Founder of Heritage Village Restaurant

Madam Molly Khoo

Heritage Village Restaurant创办人

“保持正面的思想和积极看待事物是很重要的。生活无疑很艰辛，可是我们不应该向它低头。有时候，我们感觉快要投降了，但我们要坚强，记得，事情往往柳暗花明又一村。抚养四个孩子，是我感觉最艰苦的事情。良好的计划和时间管理，是我面对艰难挑战的最佳良策。

Bio-Oil助我青春常驻，使我的干燥肌肤变得丰盈，且完全不粘腻。我感觉更加自信，并勇于接纳自己。” - Madam Molly Khoo

STEPHANIE LOOI, Co-Founder CEO of PurelyB

Stephanie Looi

PurelyB联合创办人兼首席执行员

“时时刻刻把自己排在第一位，好好照顾自己；睡眠充足、饮食良好、积极运动，做你喜爱做的事情，让自己过过自己的时间。你要是患病了、倒下了，对任何人都不好。抱持积极的心态，因为消极的思想会摧毁每个人，哪怕你是一位坚强的女性。要是你不爱自己，谁来爱你呢？。老实说，我也有低潮的时候。兼顾家庭与职场是件累人的事，但我学会及时求助和说‘不’。你不可能时时刻刻讨好每个人。因此，做些对自己最有利的事吧。

我两次怀孕皆使用Bio-Oil。还记得第一次怀胎时，我非常担心妊娠纹，因此勤于使用它。最后不见妊娠纹的踪迹，我十分开心。怀上第二个孩子时，我也同样使用它，结果还是一样的。Bio-Oil在我的怀孕期间给予无限的自信，解除了我的烦恼。这是极其重要的，怀孕的女人有着千头万绪，至少你知道，你不必为这件事情操心。” - Stephanie Looi

JESRINA ARSHAD, Co-Founder CEO of PurelyB

Jesrina Arshad

PurelyB联合创办人兼首席执行员

“从不低估自信和积极的力量。若你拥有积极正面的思维，征服你的忧虑和恐惧，并且相信自己、

相信自己的能力，无论任何事，你都可以迎刃而解！要知道，你所面临的种种阻难，有助你学习、成长，最终迈向成功。因此，别气馁！努力不懈，勇闯难关，你的梦想很快就能实现。

我曾经缺乏自信，质疑自己的能力，尤其进军由男性主导、瞬息万变的科技领域，我这个企业新丁感觉自己掉队了。但当我改变思维，强化我的信念，变得自主，我便不再胆怯。我知道，我有能力跨过所有难关，成就丰功伟绩。改变思维将创造奇迹，让你变得更耀眼。

我用Bio-Oil来润肤，它为我的干燥肌肤保湿，也让我的肤色均匀。这个令人感觉良好的品牌助女性强化自信，抚平斑纹，的确深得我心！” - Jesrina

My very first time in Farquhar Mansion for BLOOMING EN BLANC

By 靜涵 ♥ - April 03, 2018

I am so so so nervous and excited that invited by Farquhar Mansion for their event on 24th March 2018 - Blooming En Blanc. Have you ever thought about going speed dating? It's something I never really said out loud however it's definitely something i always curious about. The whole concept of the Blooming En Blanc was pretty interesting! You should go to at least one in your lifetime. That applies to everyone. You can attend if you're looking to meet new friends, date or network. Unsurprisingly, there were over twice as many men as women there.

The event took place at the Farquhar Mansion here in Penang and if you've ever been there you know the place is pretty nice and you''ll get a white rose with a number on it at the registration. After that there is free time to order yourself a whisky or wine. For me, the Tapas was surprisingly good. Then you sit at the table randomly. Pretty easy right.

Start - Registration

So as the event began, the host explained to us how it works.

He explained the rotations and how to pick your match after.

Ice-breaking game - Looking for matching

If you're taking number 13 flower, then you have to search for a guy who also carrying number 13.

Everyone has one paper on their hand. After the explanation, we have 15-30minutes to make interesting conversation based on the paper.
After the first round, you have an idea what to say and it becomes less nerve wrecking.

Amazing Live Band

Before to the next section, acclaimed jazz songstress and master of scat-singing Viv together with guitar virtuoso Jay Lim performed amazing as they will captive you with her amazing palette of vocals colour, at time, Viv voice is a jazzy, tender and sensual bossa nova, and other times a deep, rich and thrilling opera aria. It's cool when you are in LIVE.

Truth or Drink

Another Ice-breaking game. There are some games that never lose their charm, and one of them is the game of Truth or Dare - A never-ending spree of fun. Needless to elaborate, the game becomes all the more fun and interesting if the players are a good sport. These are the few questions on that night :

1. What are you favourite pyjamas looks like. ~~Naked~~

2. Tell me about your first kiss. Was given to my best friend

3. What is the most embarrassing picture of you? A lot sampai i forget

4. What is the scariest dream you have ever had? My loves one dead

5. What is the most embarrassing nickname you have ever had? Ah niu ( cow )

lotsssssssssss more........

Special Guest - DJ Perry

The event of the special guest is DJ Perry. In the last hour of the night the dance floor came alive and DJ Perry delivered a great performance. In the event, everyone is fun and certainly enjoying themselves. That were played and made the dance floor a fun and enjoyable night.

Overall

This event is really exciting. Each time if you make a decision to attend or participate in this event, have to remind yourself to have an open minded to make your experience a memorable and truly enjoyable one. Stay tuned to their next event! Ciao.

HIDANG STYLE @ KOTA DINE AND COFFEE

By 靜涵 ♥ - March 23, 2018

Hello and hi My face is big in here and i'm happy because that i invited by Kota Dine and Coffee for their New April Launching Menu as it's called Hidang Style. For the Hidang Style menu, they will only accept reservations via call, Facebook or Email. Well, of course, they do accept walk in too, but is others menu from this. But a reservations is highly recommended. Kota Dine and Coffee located in Penang. Little did i know that there is actually a hidden gem inside Fort Cornwalls, It is not only a heritage fort but also house a restaurant. They offer a super calm, cosy and quite place for diners to chill or having their meals there. They uses the freshest ingredients available and coupled with their excellent services makes this place always comfortable. Yes! The service was really prompt. The menu offers very authentic local food and it tasted really good. That is why sometimes this places is packed and crowded and need to make reservation to avoid disappointment.

While you're here, you must try out something from Kota Dine and Cafe's Hidang Style Menu after reading finish this post! Hehe.

First things is the signature Butterfly pea flower rice cooked with coconut milk. Very fragrant rice just delicious! It is not synthetic colouring but they actually used blue flower to dye the rice into blue colour and making it intriguing in visual aspects. The blue rice tasted difference compared to others, this has been cooked nicely with coconut milk. Of course, how could we expect just having blue rice but no accompanying dishes. There are various mouth-watering dishes for this Hidang Style set.

You can choose either Ice Lemon Tea or Ice Peach Tea.

This is one of my Favourite dishes - Steam Baked Otak-Otak in Puff Pastry. I have never tried this before in Penang, well of course, in my life. This is nice.

The cooking techniques and innovative produce to deliver surprising new twists on an already fascinating cuisine. The effect is simple, delicious, full of flavour and dazzling.

Yes of course, the otak-otak ( Tumeric with fish cuttle) was encased in homemade puff pastry and served it as a shared dish with rice.

The Marinated Soy Sauce Chicken came with Pumpkin and Salted Egg. This dish made of chicken cooked with soy sauce. The strong flavour of soy sauce usually covers up the taste of chicken. You can commonly find this at Cantonese cuisine but in here the dark and glossy whole chicken dunked in a soy sauce mix with the meat so tender, silky and juicy that they are one of the must-have's for this Hidang Style. The unique is the pumpkin and salted egg as they've blended them together and made a puree.

Crispy Prawn Crackers with sambal. You know what, the prawn crackers goes well with dark chili sambal belacan.

The green papaya salad is amazing to. Whatever you do, you can have the green papaya salad too! Yea this looks common but this version is uncommon with a dressing that will have you licking your plate. Like you will tasted for a bit spicy and sour.

When come to shark meat, In fact, after tasting this, It goes really well with my Butterfly Pea rice. For the shark meat, they have a strong ammonia odor, if some of the chefs did not hide this odor with seasoning or preparation methods, then there is no way to remove the fishy smell. Shark must be handled properly from the time it is caught to the time it is cooked, more so than fresh caught fish. But the best things is, this shark meat is also one of my favourite dishes. This dish tasted some asam sauce.

Broccoli and Coriander soup with small lobsters.

Hmm if you are coriander lover, you will taste it has a fresh taste with strong aroma, while the haters would say it has a soapy taste and a pungent smell. This also a great way to start your meal with the Broccoli and Coriander soup. They've blended the soup until smooth and served in the warmed bowl.

The last dishes is Stir Fried Kang Kong. This looks yummy and i probably love to have it for my meal too. The ever popular Kang Kong Belacan needs no introduction. It is a well loved perennial Malaysia stir fry that is absolutely delicious.

------------------------------------------------------

Overall , Kota Dine and Coffee serves value-for-money dishes. For what you pay for, you will get a really good nyonya modern meal and that's what it really matters. I've been here a few times, i always fancy nyonya foods, thus i will visit here whenever i miss Nyonya foods. I'm so happy that invited by them to try out this new menu and this Hidang Style is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED for 2 person! The food was superb and taste really good.
