SKINCARE FOR NIQABIS

Heyy beautiful,

I have been meaning to do this for quite a while. I wear niqab/purdah on and off without anyone noticing. Generally I don't wear them but whenever I do wear them, I feel secure, calm and safe. I fell in love. The peace you feel, Subhanallah. No words can describe it.

So one of the cons of wearing a niqab, is finding the right material. A breathable one *very important for your skin. I got mine from Fynnjamalrtw. Super duper nice, loving it ! Next, is how to treat your skin. the pros of wearing a niqab is you don't have to worry about make up just the skincare.

The essential is a good cleanser and moisturizer.

For the cleanser, I use Charms Cleanser and Make Up Remover from @themukayou on Instagram. For the moisturizer, I use Fair & Lovely whitening cream from kedai runcit depan rumah hahahaaha. I use to buy just because it's cheap but danggg it works for me. It keeps my skin moisturize and pretty fair compared to my highschool years.

If you're thinking about wearing a niqab, Alhamdulillah because why not. Just please I'm begging you, please understand the real meaning in wearing a niqab.

NO selfies,
NO mascara,
NO attractive contact lenses.

To wear it, is to avoid attraction. to disappear, to strain yourself from tabarujj. Your beauty is for your husband and your family.  May you find peace in it. Like I do.

SKINCARE FOR THE LAZY

Heyyy there beautiful people !

Yes you are beautiful. No matter what. Don't forget that.

I have been told I'm one of the LAZIEST person when it comes to skincare. I rarely use them and doesn't really care and don't even mention about make up BUT I still want to look pretty !

hahahahahahaha ohhh come on any women deserves to feel pretty right ?

I was struggling through my teenage years in figuring out the best skincare for me. A lot of try and error. Money flying by, skin damaged, confidence crushed. URGHHH

But alhamdulillah ! I found THE ONE !

I have been using it for almost 3 years. It repairs, protect and makes me preeeeettierrr

the product called Charms Cosmetic Skincare.

It's organic, paraben free, SLS free and long lasting. Since I'm still student long lasting really helps because skincare is quite expensive so for me to only buy it every 6 months saves a lot ! I used to buy my cleanser every month and it cost me RM20. But Charms Cleanser only cost RM65. So if you do the math :

Normal cleanser : RM20 x 6 (month) = RM120

Charms cleanser : RM65 for 6 months. even if you divide it (65/6), you only pay RM10 every month.

I tried the Charms cleanser and make up remover first. Since it was organic and chemical free, there wasn't a quick effect on skin. I noticed there was slight change. My skin looked healthy *idk if this is the correct way to describe it hahaahhaa. At this point I only use the cleanser and my fair & lovely moisturizer. A lot people saying fair & lovely ain't good but it works for me. So don't bother listen to anyone. As long as it works for you, go for it.

A year later, I add their Toner to my routine. It wasn't a good start. I had few skin peeling off. Their consultant said it was normal for first time user. Being me, I freaked out ! I didn't use it regularly but after few weeks it was okay. Turns out it was so good for my skin. It just need time to adjust. The toner really helped me whenever i had acne rising up. I use it religiously for few days then pooofff they're gone !

And then comes my secret weapon, the POWDER FOUNDATION ! okay bare with me, I'm a very lazy person so I didn't do it properly like all tutorial videos. After I put on my moisturizer, I dab the foundation onto my forehead, cheeks,chin, bridge of my nose eye lids (and whenever I feel I need to be extra pretty). That's it ! that's my make up. It works for me because I don't have to buy compact powder because it has powder already, and it repairs my skin too. Apparently in the foundation they put organic things in it that repairs your skin while making you look beautiful.

if you want more info, you can check @themukayou on instagram. I started The Muka You to help other girls look pretty without any hard work nor expensive treatment. I mean come on, you don't have to be rich to look beautiful. Ask me any question, I'm more than happy to help. I use the product so I'm a living testimony.

see you there !

LONG WAITED HIKMAH

Assalamualaikum and Alhamdulillah

Alhamdulillah for everything. Alhamdulillah for letting me save her.

Today i encountered a suicide attempted.  By own friend who i just knew. When i started being friends w her i knew that she needs me because I can see my old self in her. Hurting, Tired, Give up w the world and trying to find a way to everything stop. To make the pain go away.

I know that feeling. I've been through it. Countless night of crying, suicidal attempts, slitting wrist, been there done that. But till now I never understood why I'm still here.

And it changed when her friend asked me "how did you survived?"
It didnt take long for me to answer and it right out of my mouth w/o thinkinh

" Sebab الله  masih sayang "

I never knew i would be happy. More importantly, i thought i didnt even deserve happiness. Shockingly, Alhamdulillah i passed that stage of life w/o realising it.
It made me thinking that maybe just maybe, what I've been through is a preparation to help her. To understand her better.

It's true الله is the best planner. We may not see the light now but eventually it'll came when you least expecting it.

I can finally say that Alhamdulillah with what I've been through in the last 22 years.
It made me useful to others.

All i can think now is سبحان الله، its true what Ebit Lew said, الله tu baik 

BETTERING UP

Assalamualaikum and Alhamdulillah :)

These past weeks studying and going to class has been brutal. Honestly i can't even see the good in anything related to studies anymore. At first i didn't realised that started a month late in this semester would affected me so badly.
I hate the feeling of not knowing things in class and I've tried asking my classmates questions and haihhh it didn't work out. I think they got bored with me already.

As a result to that I've stopped coming to class, print my own exercises and do it in my own pace and it turn out to be good. Somehow i felt so close to Allah during all that time. I managed to pray 5times a day Yeehooooo ! My love towards becoming a better servant to our Lord and this helps me with my studies. Alhamdulillah. I revised a lot more and still trying to be better.

The only things I did during my alone time,
1. Clean my Instagram (unfollow everything that wants me to do bad things and started to follow islamic quotes and motivational page)
2. Take care of my prayers

Basically these two things was my starter pack. And so far so good. Alhamdulillah.

Today's italian word is
Essere migliore - to be better

COUNTING DAYS OF 2018

Assalamualaikum and Alhamdulillah  :)

Just finished reading the last tuesday love letter from AA. She asked what have I learned from these past months and it got me thinking. From being responsible to every projects in uni , working in singapore, and catching up everything in a knick of time, one thing keep popping up was STRENGTH. During all those time giving up was an easy choice but like shawn mendes said it isn't it my bloooooddddd ! But Alhamdulillah Allah gave me strength  I didn't know I had in me.

Allah tu baik.

These past few weeks has been on and off inner  battle with myself. Maybe too much of free time, loneliness and worrying about my past present future sins sanked me. But the hikmah was somehow someway it drew me closer to Allah. It wasn't and still not an easy hijrah but its b e a u t i f u l.

You just have to choose when to start

Italian sentence of the day 

La scelta - the choice *prounouce it like shelta
