ID.AZ Face Fit CU-V Tensioning Sleep Mask

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on ID.AZ Face Fit CU-V Tensioning Sleep Mask

Do you notice that your face is more square compare to 5 to 10 years ago? That’s because your skin especially the two sides of your face is sagging, it can no longer fight the gravity, you are losing collagen too. All these cannot be avoided by us unless you have the money and the guts to go under the knife or get prick by needle from time to time to maintain that V-shape face.


In few more years, I’m going to be 40! *GASP* What?!?! How time flies?!?! I’ve been given with ID.AZ Face Fit CU-V Tensioning Sleep Mask which is created by Korea’s top dermatology clinic, bringing professional treatments into at-home skincare to review. It claims to slim, tighten and smooth the facial line overnight. Pretty excited to received it. Pardon the dented box, it was sent via courier to me last week. It can’t be avoided however the jar in there was intact, no breakage. It’s all good.

The key functions of the product are improve skin density, improve sagging face, lifting, and anti-aging.

The texture is smooth and not oily, it’s between cream and gel. The smell isn’t overpowering. It reminds me of some classy cosmetics smell. By the way, the actual colour is white, it looks yellowish here due to my lighting duh…

Here’s a short video of unboxing the sleeping pack on my Instagram, you can see how the colour and texture look like.

I’ve been using it nightly either on its own or after all my usual skincare product. When I’m using it on its own, I will rub my palms together with the product on them to warm it up and apply it all over my face just like any other moisturizer in upward direction. Otherwise, I will use it at the jaw area by using my two fingers in upward direction to massage it in to help with sculpting the jaw line for better lifting effect. Not to forget about the neck and laugh line too!!

I’m only using if for a week. My jaw line is still visible even before using this cream, thank God for that, hence I couldn’t see much difference. However, the folding lines on my neck has slightly lightened. As for my laugh line, that’s my biggest concern, I could see slight improvement too. Fine lines are less visible. All these are not obvious to the naked eyes, need to look very carefully. Only using it for a week, what to expect? I believe with continuous usage, the effect would be more obvious. My photo here has no makeup at all. Taken after my usual morning skincare routine. I was using it the night before.

It’s recommended to be used at night. That’s why it’s called sleep mask. However, I’m sure you can use it day and night. Maybe because of the price, you might want to use it sparingly and only at night hahaha… It’s selling at Watsons Online or Watsons outlets at RM199.00(normal price). Psst… There’s offer now online. Go check it out.

One thing though, I wish it comes with a spatula so that you can take the product out without contaminating the whole jar with your finger.

Last but not least, here’s the ingredient list:

Water, Butylene Glycol, Squalene, Alcohol Denat., Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Glycerin, Hydrogenated Poly (C6-14 Olefin), Chondrus Crispus Extract, Saccharum Officinarum (Sugarcane) Extract, Glyceryl Stearate, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Caprylic/Capric/Myristic/Stearic Triglyceride, Macadamia Integrifolia Seed Oil, Niacinamide, PEG-40 Stearate, Cetearyl Alcohol, Cyclopentasiloxane, Argania Spinosa Kernel (Argan) Extract, Anemarrhena Asphodeloides Root Extract, Curcuma Longa (Turmeric) Root Extract, Prunella Vulgaris Flower/Leaf/Stem Extract, Tagetes Erecta (Marigold Flower) Flower Extract, Dioscorea Japonica (Yam) Root Extract, Morus Alba (White Mulberry) Root Extract, Salvia Officinalis (Sage) Extract, Pentylene Glycol, Synthetic Beeswax, Cyclohexasiloxane, PEG-100 Stearate Polyacrylate-13 Polyisobutene, Palmitic Acid, Caprylyl Glycol, Stearic Acid, Tocopheryl Acetate, Adenosine, Polysorbate 20, Sorbitan Isostearate, Sodium Deoxycholate, Myristic Acid, Arachidic Acid, Lauric Acid, 1,2-Hexanediol, Sorbitan Laurate, Oleic Acid, Sodium Cocoyl Glutamate, Hydroxyethylcellulose, Acetyl Dipeptide-1, Cetyl Ester Alcohol, Carbomer, Disodium EDTA, Phenoxyethanol, Fragrance

“We’re going to the museum, we’re going to the museum, we’re not scare of museum, we’re not scare…”

Hahaha… My niece sang this when we told her that we will bring her to the National Railway Museum. The museum is located in York. We spent 2 hours there. I would say 3 hours would be just nice so that you won’t rush tru’ things. We left after 2 hours because they’re closing.


Entrance is free but if you would like to donate, you are welcome to do so. They have demonstrations and talks related to the rail transport in Britain and its impact on the society. It is part of the British Science Museum Group of National Museums.


We were in time to catch the turntable demo, here’s the video of it.

It’s a device for turning railway rolling stock, usually locomotives, so that they can be moved back in the direction from which they came..


There are many locomotives on display from old to new and from major cities in the world. Also houses old trains of the royal family.


The miniature is pretty interesting too.


If you like museum and would love to know more about train, this is a must-visit. Very educational and family friendly.

Very mesmerizing. I didn’t take any video of it.


Not to forget some creatures such as frogs and bugs are also there.

Snowdonia National Park, Wales

Posted on By sweet surrender No Comments on Snowdonia National Park, Wales

When we were in UK, we spent 2 days 2 nights at Wales. We did a road trip. The views along the way from England to Wales were quite nice but too bad when we reached Wales, it was already getting dark so I couldn’t take any photos of the surrounding. It’s surreal looking out to the sea where Ireland was just out there.


The next day, our main place to visit in Wales was Snowdonia National Park. It’s awesome that you don’t get tonnes of tourist from you-know-where, only a handful of them who are likely doing their studies around the UK education institutions or those independent travelers who are more responsible. It’s not a place for mass tourism, no, no, no… The place going to be ruined!

It was drizzling when we reached Snowdonia. There wasn’t any blue sky too. We were just hoping that the rain would stop. Good thing, it did stop.


Left: We went up to the summit of Mount Snowdon with Snowdon Mountain Railway. You can also opt to hike up the mountain but hahaha… Not me… No thanks. Only limited ticket issued daily, hence it is recommended to purchase it in advance online to secure your seats. You can check out their official website(http://www.snowdonrailway.co.uk/) for more details. The statements quoted here are also from the official website.

Right: Ceunant Mawr waterfall. I was sitting at the other end of the cabin, this is the best photo of the waterfall that I could take.

Since 1896 visitors have been travelling to Llanberis, to experience the unique rail journey to the Summit of the highest mountain in Wales and England. A true mountain and place of legend, come with us and see exactly why Snowdon Mountain Railway has been described as one of the most unique and wonderful railway journeys in the world. With stunning scenery and awe-inspiring views it’s all part of a great day out for you and your family in North Wales.

Here’s the views along the rail journey. Such a breathtaking and mesmerizing view.

Trains depart from Llanberis station and begin their climb 1085m to the summit of Yr Wyddfa, a journey experienced by some 12 million travellers since 1896. These ancient Snowdonian mountains, thrust upwards by volcanic forces 450 million years ago, once grew to heights of 10,000 metres. Over eons the wind and rain and successive ice ages have sculpted them to their current form; with Snowdon being the highest summit in England and Wales.


We opted for the Tradition Diesel Service. It’s been three centuries! The train can sit 74 passengers, 10 per compartment. Departures leave Llanberis every day from mid-March until the end of October on the hour and on the half hour. Journey time to the summit is one hour with a 30 minute stop over at the peak. We were there in July 2018. Gosh… Half year already and I’m still not done with all the posts -.-


Majestic!!


This is taken from the peak, the station is just below.


From the station, just walk up the staircase and you will reach the peak! It was a wales of climb!! I meant the train hahaha… It was so cold up there! I’m at the summit at 1085m!!! First time in my life ‘climbed’ up a mountain this high. 😀 The highest mountain of England and Wales some more!


Couldn’t enjoy the view for too long, it’s only 30 minutes break, need to go to the wash room and get ready to board the train again. It’s too cold and windy up there too.

By the time we reached the station down there, it’s already 2.30pm. We took the ride up at around 11.45am, be sure to eat before you go up or bring some snacks with you. Also, make sure you are on time as they won’t wait for you. If you are late, there won’t be any space to fit you into the next train. So… BE ON TIME!


Down we go…


Time to look for lunch, it was one very late lunch. You can always have lunch at the train station itself but we decided to go for a bit of walk around the town to look for lunch.


No idea where to eat, we just venture into the unknown hahaha… We ended up at The Padarn Hotel at 3pm. It’s located at the foot of Snowdon, 100m from Padarn Lake and a 5 minute walk from the Snowdon Mountain Railway.

Here’s what we had at the restaurant. I would say the food was all right.


I don’t remember the actual names of the food, didn’t take photo of the menu. My guesses are grilled pork chop and obviously fish & chips.


Lastly, carbonara and chicken salad.

After very late lunch, it’s time for us to go back to our Airbnb to make our own dinner. We check-out the next day to head back to England.
