Inner and Outer Sun Protection with NUViT

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Inner and Outer Sun Protection with NUViT

I’ve tried a new sun care product recently. Even though it’s MCO, we stay at home but we are still exposed to harmful UV and blue light radiation. Hence, don’t be lazy with sunscreen application. I apply sunscreen daily even when I’m not going out. It’s a must for me or else my morning skincare routine will not be completed. Aside from that, I will have my daily Vitamin C supplement too.


NUViT has it all covered!

NUViT Daily Defender SPF50+***(RM55.90) with 360° Invisible Shield is non-greasy, lightweight, moisturizing, long-lasting, not sticky, and soothing. There is no paraben, fragrance, or alcohol in it. The key ingredients are Pollushield™, Ceramide, Laminaria, Ochroleuca Extract, and Hyaluronic Acid. All these ingredients can protect from UVA and UVB damage which cause photo-aging; anti-pollution to protect against urban dust and reduce metal imbedding into skin; reduce oxidative stress in skin cause by blue light and boost collagen production; restore skin barrier; and moisturize skin.


I’ve been using it daily. It doesn’t break me out. Fast absorbing with velvety finish. Use it as the last step of morning skincare routine by applying it evenly on the face and neck.

As for defense from within to complement the sunscreen, you can drink NUViT Sunblox(RM80) daily. It helps in reducing sunburn effect, skin aging, and skin damage from UV radiation while maintaining skin elasticity. Best to drink in the morning. It contains Vitamin C and collagen that are known to improve body’s defense system while improve other aspects of skin. This nutritional orange and lemon flavor beverage has no sugar, fat, preservatives, and artificial colouring added.


The key ingredients are 2000mg Collagen Tripeptide to maintain skin elasticity; 300mg Vitamin C to boost immunity; while clinically proven NutroxSunâ„¢ and Polypodium Leucotomos Extract are plant-based strong antioxidants that protect skin from UV ray free radicals.

Mix 1 sachet with 180ml room temperature water and stir well. Consume 1 sachet daily. I do like the taste, not too sweet, not too sour. You can add honey to enhance the sweetness but it’s sweet enough for me. Remember to really stir it well and drink it immediately as it will oxidize. By the way, in general, collagen supplement is beneficial, I experienced good effect from it, I had less breakouts and hair loss was less too. I believe Sunblox will do the same.

Medi Heally Eye on Pack | Home Spa for the Tired Eyes

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Medi Heally Eye on Pack | Home Spa for the Tired Eyes

If you use your eyes a lot for computer screen or mobile devices, your eyes can feel tired and the area surrounding it will feel tense. We shouldn’t be looking at the screens for too long but sometimes we just cannot avoid it.


I found Medi Heally Eye on Pack awesome! I could feel my eye area including the forehead relaxed and my eyes were brighter too after using it. Even water retention, puffiness, and dark circle under the eyes are improved. The pack is self heating. Just put it on like wearing an eye mask, lie down on your bed, close your eyes and relax for 30 minutes. I would say to use it in the morning so that you can start your day with a fresh and rested eyes. Do it while you are snoozing 😉 hehehe…

Otherwise, use it at night before you sleep but make sure you remove it before you fall asleep because the heat can go up to 40 degree Celsius. Long exposure to heat might not be good, I’m worry that you might suffer capillary break around the area.


It has quite a fair bit of herbal smell but not too bad. The heat could really last for quite a fair bit. Maybe can use it as a heat pack if the day is cold instead of throwing it away after using it on your eyes.

It has 5 pieces of individually packed eye masks in the box selling at RM28 in Althea. Two thumbs up from me. I’ve restocked this in my recent spree ;p

How to Identify Illicit Booze in Malaysia?

Posted on By sweet surrender 19 Comments on How to Identify Illicit Booze in Malaysia?

Admit it! Many people like to drink whether to socialise or relax or just enjoy the craft of brewing be it beer, wine, stout, champagne, and more. However, do you ever wonder whether what you are drinking is genuine?

If you want to enjoy good brew and appreciate the art of brewing, illicit booze certainly cannot satisfy your desires. Instead of enjoyment, it will only give you negative feelings such as bad headache and hangover. It can also cause permanent damage to your health and the worst case is death!

How to ensure what you are drinking in Malaysia is genuine?

If you are drinking Guinness, Tiger, Heineken®, Anchor, Strongbow and/or Apple Fox Cider in can, these are the key things to take note of to ensure you are drinking the genuine ones:

  1. Make sure you check the company name, it should be “Heineken Malaysia Berhad”.
  2. Ensure that the products are brewed and packed in “Kilang Bir Sg. Way, 46000 Petaling jaya, Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia”.
  3. The can should have 320ml of content.
  4. Check the barcode to make sure it starts with 955.

Gawai is coming!

We all like to drink and be merry but remember… If you are unsure, then don’t drink it. Be wary with alcohol being priced cheaply. Remember to only buy from reputable supermarkets, restaurants, and outlets.

Be a responsible drinker and drink sensibly. Don’t drink and drive cos HEINEKEN Malaysia’s got your back! In conjunction with the harvest festival, HEINEKEN Malaysia is also giving away Grab vouchers worth RM10. You can now party safe without having to drive after some drinks with your friends and family.

GRAB your offer!
Use the Grab promo code DrinkSensibly, available for redemption in Sabah and Sarawak between 4pm to 4am until 2 June 2019.

Remember…

Don’t turn the happy moments the other way around.

Systema Toothpaste, Toothbrush, & Free Gum Health Check

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Systema Toothpaste, Toothbrush, & Free Gum Health Check

I’m very particular when it comes to toothpaste and toothbrush. You know how after you use some toothpaste and/or toothbrush of some brands, you didn’t even feel you had cleaned your teeth, it still felt like a layer of plaque around gum margins. You will need the right toothpaste with the right toothbrush to ensure your your teeth are properly cleaned otherwise you can develop gum disease called gingivitis and then it can lead to even more severe problem such as stroke and other cardiovascular problems. The main cause of gum disease is plaque, soft sticky film that contains billions of bacteria. When plaque builds up in between the teeth, along the gum line and inside gum pockets, the toxin from the bacteria will damage the gum tissues.

Did you know? Gum disease is reversible and preventable at the early stage via simple oral hygiene practices, and visits to the dentist.


I was given with some toothpastes and toothbrushes from Systema to try. It’s called Systema Advance, the first anti-plaque bacteria toothpaste with Advance Plague Buster technology combining TDS, IPMP to break down plaque and kills 99.9% bacteria in hard to reach area especially inside gum pocket and GK2 too soothes gum discomfort.

Systema Advance Anti-Plaque Toothpaste comes in 3 variants:–

Systema Advance Extra Gum Protection that has a fresh aromatic peppermint flavour with a spearmint note.


Systema Advance Deep Clean Whitening which has a longer lasting mint flavour with particles in the paste. I love this the most because of the whitening function emphasized *LOL*. All of them have whitening mentioned but this being mentioned more hahaha…


Systema Advance Extreme Clean Breath that provides fresh double mint flavour with long-lasting cooling technology for longer feeling of fresh breath.

Overall, the toothpaste’s taste isn’t overpowering like many other brands. This is the mildest I’ve ever tried and don’t even need time to get used to it. I accepted the taste in an instance.

Pair the toothpaste with Systema 0.02mm super tapered bristles toothbrush to access the hard-to-reach areas of your teeth especially in between teeth, along gum line and inside gum pockets. These are what I was given:-

Comfort for inter-dental and gum line clean.

Sensitive for reducing brushing pressure especially for those having sensitive teeth. The combination of long and short bristles ensure more comfortable brushing where the long bristles can penetrate between teeth while the shorter ones are gentle for gum line.

I prefer Compact because it is small enough to reach the hard-to-reach areas and my mouth isn’t big 😛 I found it hard to use big head toothbrush.

Not to forget, Systema also urges Malaysian to do a gum health check, through gumhealthcheck.com, a free online assessment that can help you to assess your gum health condition.The free gum health check website is part of Systema Gumbatte Towards 1 Million Gum Health Checks awareness and education campaign 2019, a collaboration with the Malaysian Dental Association. Be among the first 1 million to assess your gum health check online at gumhealthcheck.com for healthy teeth and gums for life.

Systema products are available nationwide via leading hypermarkets, supermarkets and pharmacies at RM12.55 for the Systema Advance Anti-Plaque Toothpaste, while the Systema 0.02mm Tapered Bristles Toothbrushes range from RM7.80 to RM12.55.
