Lazada Malaysia Big Baby Fair 2017: Restock nappy!


Haritu Lazada Malaysia ada buat Big Baby Fair, sama tarikh dengan TCE Baby Expo dekat Mid Valley. As a mom, of course I jadi gila sikit kalau ada baby fair. 

Masa Maysaa baru 2 bulan dalam perut, I dah excited pergi TCE Baby Expo 2016, tapi beli nappy dia je lah. Masa tu Pet Pet ada offer, 2 Newborn size and 2 Size S, RM100 je. Terus lah beli buat stock. Tahan sampai Maysaa almost two months.

Bila perasan stock nappy Maysaa dah makin sikit, terus survey berapa sebenarnya harga kalau beli dekat pasar raya biasa. I survey Tesco je sebab dekat and boleh survey online. 

Pet Pet size S, satu pack RM34. Kalau 4 pack, dah RM136.


Bila check dekat Lazada, 4 pack Pet Pet size S ni RM74 je okay! Jimat more than 50%. Memang terus beli.


Order hari Rabu malam, hari Isnin dah sampai dah. Okay lah sebab musim sale mesti ramai orang beli kan.

Yay dah sampai!

Cukup lah kot stock untuk sebulan lebih kan :)


Untuk Lazada Big Baby Fair ni, for me beli nappy baby paling berbaloi. Yang lain tu macam okay lah, tak banyak sangat diskaun tapi berbaloi dari bersesak pergi TCE Baby Expo tu. Lepasni kalau ada sale lagi, confirm nak restock nappy lagi!

Product Empties #1

My first product empties entry! I have quite a few products that I've used up so why not some mini reviews?

All my empties.

Skincare stuffs.


 #1: Olay Essentials Beauty Fluid
This is my holy grail moisturizer since 7-8 years ago. Only this moisturizer, nothing else. Cewah. Even after trying other moisturizers, I still come back to this one. Suitable for normal/dry skin and sensitive skin. Absorbs quickly, not sticky, smells really nice. Totally recommended! (Price: Around RM40 at Watsons or Guardian)

#2: Innisfree Super Volcanic Clay Mousse Mask
Full review here: [REVIEW] INNISFREE SUPER VOLCANIC CLAY MOUSSE MASK. Totally recommended for oily skin! (Price: RM70 at Innisfree store. Also available online at Althea and Hermo)

#3: Burt's Bees Moisturizing Lipbalm
I love the vanilla smell and it totally moisturizes my lips. Really need to do a full review for this lip balm because I love this and totally gonna repurchase! (Price: RM25 at Burt's Bees store)



Body care stuffs

#4: Bath and Body Works's Sweet Pea shower gel
It contains shea butter and vitamin E to keep the skin moisturized. I love the scent! A mix of juicy raspberries & pear kissed. But nothing major on improving my skin. Just a fun shower gel that makes me feel happy while having bath haha

#5: Nivea Deodorant Roll On Dry Comfort
I love the scent and totally makes me dry the whole day! No ketiak basah. 


Makeup stuffs

#6: Wet N Wild Megaclear Mascara
The function is to keep your brows in place. It does a pretty good job. It's actually a clear gel but right now it looks disgusting because of my brow pencil residue. I love this but I'm not sure if I'm gonna repurchase this. Right now I'm using Essence's Eye Brow Fixing Gel. (Price: RM21.90 at SaSa)

#7: Maybelline Clean Express Miracle Water
To remove light makeups, dirt and dust. No need to rinse. A bit sticky. More review and comparison here: [REVIEW & COMPARISON] GARNIER, MAYBELLINE & SEPHORA MICELLAR WATER

Masks

#8: Innisfree Jeju Volcanic blackhead 3 step program
It contain three strips. The first one is to open the pores. The second one is like the biore black strip, to remove the blackhead. The third one is to tighten back the pores. It works but nothing major. Maybe I need to do if often. I love this but it's quite pricey for only one time use only. (Price: RM11, available at Innisfree store)

#9: Innisfree It's real squeeze mask Strawberry
It claims to makes the skin smooth and bright. For more relaxing sheet mask session, put you sheet mask inside the fridge before using it. I used this sheet mask at the end of the day, before sleeping and it is very soothing. My skin felt soft after using this. (Price: RM5, available at Innisfree store)




Wow, quite a long post with a few Innisfree products. You can find Innisfree store in Malaysia at Sunway Pyramid, KLCC, Pavillion, Paradigm Mall, Sunway Velocity and KL SOGO.

Thankyou!

[Review] Himalaya Hydrating Face Wash Cream


Product name: Hydrating Face Wash Cream
Size: 150ml

What it claims: Prevents drying. Cleanses and soften dry skin.

My skin type: Dry & sensitive.


Texture: White cream. Tak berbuih sangat.


My thoughts:
I don't really like the smell. Smells weird herbal-ish. I do feel my skin is smooth and clean, however, it doesn't moisturize / hydrates my skin. Nope. I also feel slightly itchy and tight after using this face wash. Irritates my skin a bit. Nothing fancy

Would I recommend this?
Nope. Unless your skin is not sensitive or too dry and you love herbal smell.

First Impression: Ergobaby Original Carrier



I've been surveying quite a few carriers for Maysaa that's suitable for newborn. There are not many options since I'm a bit fussy on the designs (nak yang cantik!) and affordable.

At first I wanted to buy a wrap but after watching some tutorials, I figured out, I'm a lazy person and I'm to lazy to learn how to wrap lilit lilit. Malas and lambat. I want something fast!

This is Boba Wrap. Tapi I malas nak belajar lilit lilit. 



Then, after surveying (googling, read facebook), I decided to buy either Ergobaby original or Boba 4G. Ergobaby is a bit cheaper compared to Boba 4G, but I need to buy the infant insert for newborn which I need to add another RM100. Boba 4G tak perlu beli infant insert sebab dah included. 


Soft Structured Comparison from pinterest.


I wanted to buy Boba 4G at first, but then I found a pink Ergobaby, OMG YES I NEED THIS






I bought mine from Fabulousmom, TTDI branch. Itu pun lepas email and call, because I don't want to buy online, I need to wait for the postage etc etc. Luckily they have one in stock at TTDI branch, terus minta reserve and masa lunch hour terus minta Marwan pergi belikan. Settle.


The price: Around RM400++ for the carrier and RM100 for the infant insert.



Sebab Maysaa kecik lagi, kena duduk dalam infant insert. No crying.





We've used this carrier quite a few times. Even Marwan pun guna walaupun it's pink tapi pakai je lah ye bang :p






Why I bought this carrier?
Sebenarnya ada banyak jenis carrier. Ada yang ergonomic, ada yang tak ergonomic, ada yang fake. Yang tak ergonomic ni macam hipseat, crotch carrier, front facing. Yang tak ergonomic ni bahaya untuk posture baby, kaki tergantung etc.


Ni kalau hipseat carrier, posture tulang belakang baby tak betul. Unless baby dah besar, tulang belakang dia dah kuat. Tapi kalau baby dah besar/berat, kita la pulak yang berat nak bawak dia.

Yang ni carrier yang narrow. Hips boleh dislocated. 



Kalau yang fake, taktahu dia guna material apa, jahitan macam mana, nanti entah entah bawak baby, tali terputus, jatuh pulak baby tiba tiba. 

Hence, I opt for Soft Structured Carrier (SSC). Lagi satu, sementara baby masih ringan, senang pakai baby carrier instead of stroller. Lagi cepat. Lagipun kalau baby nangis dalam carrier, boleh terus buai buai dia, sebab dia dah memang melekat. Tak tahu lah nanti macam mana, kita tengok dulu, Sebab tak ada pengalaman lagi. 

But mostly I read from Malaysian Babywearer facebook group.




What I love about this carrier (setakat ni):
1. Maysaa didn't cry -- Whats the point of having a good carrier tapi baby taknak duduk kan? She can sleeps easily in this carrier
2. Easy to wear
3. I love the design? Can it be considered? Haha
4. Got pocket so I can put my money, phone, keys.
5. Comfortable, ergonomic and safe

The pocket



Cons:
1. Infant insert ni kena guna sampai baby 5.5kg atau bila leher dia dah cukup kuat nak support kepala. Hence, additional RM100 for the infant insert that I'm gonna use for only 3-4 months.
2. Using the infant insert is a bit tricky for the first time. I watched the tutorial for almost 10 times and still can't get it right. (Or maybe I memang lembab tak faham bahasa kot hahaha) -- But now, it is not a problem anymore.
3. The infant insert is quite stuffy and thick. Panas. Kalau tempat tak aircond, memang berpeluh baby. Tak sesuai outdoor. Dalam mall takpe.


Overall, I love this carrier! Hopefully we can use this carrier sampai Maysaa dah besar. However, if Boba 4G suddenly comes out with pink carrier, I'd buy Boba 4G for the next baby! No need infant insert and cheaper.

My fav SILKYGIRL cosmetics's products


Silky Girl products ni memang famous dari zaman sekolah dulu which is 10 years ago. Dari dulu semua products dia best. I remember buying their eyeshadow lepastu eyeshadow tu jatuh habis berderai. Sedih. 

But for this entry, I'm gonna pick my most fav items from Silky Girl.


#1: Expert Brow Slim Liner



Price: RM21.90

Why I love:
1. Retractable. Which means I dont have to sharp it. Pulas pulas je dia keluar.
2. Spoolie brush at the opposite end to groom and blend the colour
3. Easy to use for beginner, blends well

What I don't love about it:
Senang patah. Tak boleh tekan kuat sangat.

Overall, it's one of the best eyebrow pencil!


#2 Long wearing eyeliner



This is my eyeliner since high school! My first eyeliner and also the best. Tak ingat berapa kali dah beli ni.

Why I love:
1. Glides easily
2. Good colour pay off
3. Easy to use
4. For natural/everyday look
5. Retractable


#3 Eye opener water proof mascara



Price: Around RM10++

Why I love:
1. Easy to wear
2. Although it says waterproof, it's actually not that waterproof (which is a good thing actually), hence it is easily removed. I don't fancy waterproof mascara
3. Lengthening 
4. Cheaaaap!

What I don't like about it:
1. Clumps easily. One or two coating is enough



#4 Matte Junkie Lip Cream




Why I love:
Pigmented, kissproof, longlasting.







The swatches of Expert Brow Slim Liner 020 Dark Brown, Long wearing eyeliner in Black and Dark Brown, Matte Junkie Lipcream in Retro



#5 Be Mine Roll On Perfume





This is a true legend! Since high school. Since 10 years ago!

Dulu rasanya ada banyak choices and famous sangat, rasa nak beli semua bau. But this one, "Be Mine" is personal favourite. Letak dalam bag makeup for "just in case" situation. 





That's all. Thanks!

Tips buat resume untuk fresh grad

Follow my blog with Bloglovin



Apa nak tulis dalam resume?


1. Personal details

For me, personal details yang penting dalam resume ni cuma phone number and email je. Alamat rumah, alamat IC, tarikh lahir ni semua macam tak ada kaitan. Kalau dah diterima kerja nanti baru lah kita bagi segala details yang perlu. Tapi ada juga yang letak alamat IC and alamat rumah sebab mana lah tahu dia IC Kedah, majikan pun orang Kedah, terus dia rasa "eh nak hire lah budak ni sebab duduk sekampung". Kalau alamat rumah, senang majikan nak tahu rumah dia dekat tak dengan office. Hire orang yang memang dah duduk dekat dengan office lagi senang, tak perlu redah traffic jam. So personal details ni suka hati lah nak letak apa. I letak number phone & email SAHAJA.

2. Academic Qualification

Letak nama institusi, lokasi, tahun bila, nama sijil, result / final CGPA. Untuk fresh grad, letak sampai result SPM cukup. Tak perlu letak PMR, UPSR. Tak perlu.

Contohnya:

International Islamic University Malaysia, Gombak (2012-2016)
Bachelor of Engineering (Electronics-Computer Information)
Final CGPA: 3.00/4.00

Letak sekali major courses yang korang score / dapat A (kalau perlu / ada kaitan dengan kerja), contohnya apply kerja Software Engineer,  letak lah major courses "Programming, Algorithm".

3. Work Experiences

Untuk fresh grad, biasa ada pengalaman internship je kan. Tulis lah nama company, tahun bila, and job scope / skills yang dapat. Kalau pernah buat part time pun tulis jugak, sekali dengan job scope / apa yang korang achieve masa buat part time tu.

4. Activities Involved

Senaraikan program yang korang pernah organize atau join. Jangan la attend talk pun nak tulis jugak. Tulis yang membanggakan lah, contohnya jadi biro kewangan, dapat kutip sponsor sampai RM100k. Maknanya skill PR korang bagus sampai boleh dapat banyak sponsor untuk program. Kadang kadang kalau aktif join sukan pun majikan suka, sebab boleh jadi wakil untuk company baru pulak. Atau korang suka main futsal, majikan korang pulak memang suka futsal, boleh lah dia ada geng baru. (Tapi tak releven sangat pun, rendah sangat probability dia)

5. Skills

Senarai semua skills yang power and ada kaitan dengan kerja. Technical skills, contohnya Microsoft Word, Microsoft Powerpoint, Adobe Photoshop. Soft skills, contohnya presentation skill, communication skill, negotiation skill. Jangan lupa masukkan languages yang korang terrer. Biasanya part skills ni orang buat dalam bentuk rating 3/5 ke 4/5 ke.

6. Academic Projects

Disebabkan fresh grad tak banyak pengalaman, ada pengalaman buat FYP atau apa apa projects lain, boleh listkan dekat part ni. Letaklah nama project, briefly pasal project dengan skills yang dapat dari buat project tu.

Contohnya:

Android Translation Apps - An android apps that helps user to translate into 20 different languages.

Skill: Android Studio


7. References

Elok letak dua orang lecturer yang memang kenal korang and boleh bagi positive feedback. 


Perlu ke letak gambar?

Letak gambar ke tak ni, terpulang kepada diri masing masing. Ada orang kata kena letak, supaya majikan boleh kenal dia macam mana, sesuai tak kerja. Tapi apa kaitan nak tengok muka? Lain lah kerja bidang yang memang kena tayang muka macam modelling atau receptionist. Skill je tak cukup ke? (Emo pulak hahaha)

So perlu ke tak, terpulang. Rasa nak letak, letak lah gambar formal. Jangan selfie atau background serabut, pakai baju tak formal. Kalau malas nak pergi tangkap gambar passport, makesure pakai baju cantik and formal, tangkap gambar dengan background warna putih. Gambar kena kemas.

Tips lain

1. Pastikan guna font yang senang nak baca, tak besar sangat tak kecik sangat dan tak berserabut. 

2. Untuk fresh grad, resume maximum 2 pages dah okay. Panjang sangat nanti penat pulak orang nak baca.

3. Buat dalam bentuk table atau bullet. Jangan buat essay meleret. Kesian orang nak baca, mengantuk dia. 

4. Save dalam bentuk pdf! Supaya format & alignment tak lari bila majikan download.

5. Template menarik. Sekarang ni ada banyak style resume, warna warni. Ada orang kata kalau bidang engineering, sains, yang serious serious ni resume jangan fancy sangat. Buat black and white je and macam normal resume tu. Sebab ada certain company, majikan dia orang lama lama, jiwa lama, dia nak benda yang dah biasa dalam hidup dia. Kalau orang muda, mestilah nak tengok resume berjiwa muda. Kalau bidang arts, takpe buat fancy fancy sikit, barulah nampak seni dia. For me, takpe buat yang fancy sikit kalau korang nak kerja dengan company yang fun, yang boleh terima resume fancy and bagi peluang untuk express diri sendiri. It's all up to you.

Ni ada contoh I buat resume warna peach guna microsoft publisher: My Peach Resume (tapi ni resume lama, dah outdated sikit)

6. Email address, make sure formal and jangan guna email yang sama link dengan social medias korang! (Unless social media korang macam facebook, twitter, instagram tu suci murni, takpe)

Beza resume dengan CV?

Resume cuma brief summary of your skills and experiences. CV (Curriculum Vitae) ni penerangan panjang lebar tentang kehidupan korang. Semua educations, accomplishments ada dalam CV.


Okay, ini je kot tips from me. All the best :)

Shopping untuk bilik baby di IKEA

Masa around 7 months pregnant, we went for IKEA trip nak beli perabot untuk bilik baby. Nak beli yang wajib wajib lah macam baby cot, rak baju, bath tub. Sebab dah survey lama sangat dah barang barang baby ni tapi tak beli beli sebab awal sangat.

First stop, mestilah makan meatballs dulu!


Lepastu baru surveyyyy





Ternampak seekor gajar and seekor polar bear, terus ambil. Niatnya nak beli satu je.




Lepastu saja buat poll dekat twitter


See, 50-50, 488 orang yang vote. 

Marwan pun macam, "Cuba tengok mata diorang, diorang macam nak ikut kita balik je".

Fine


Dua dua ekor dah selamat dibawa balik!


Beli bath tub etc etc


All the stuff we bought




What we bought:

Baby cot, tilam & cadar dia




Rak baju baby



Trolley untuk letak barang barang baby




Bath tub


Changing mat 




Asalnya bilik ni penuh dengan barang barang lama, tapi lepas dah kemas, jadilah bilik kosong.


Marwan gigih pasang langsir. (Lupa dah beli set langsir apa so tak include kat dalam list atas tu)


Sesi memasang. Ada lah tiga jam nak pasang baby coat + rak baju


 Almost done!

Tak pasang lagi sarung cadar for baby cot sebab takut berhabuk, awal lagi. Time ni bulan December, baby due bulan February. And bukan pantang kat sini so March baru nak guna. So sabar dulu.


Tapi tak sabar nak balik rumah nak kemas bilik baby ni cantik cantik, susun semua barang dia properly. Sebab tak sempat nak susun properly, tiba tiba je terbersalin awal :p

Cerita bersalin dekat sini, Pengalaman Bersalin

Ok byee!
