Beautiful Asian Skin

MaiBeauty — Tue, 21 Feb 2012 13:38:11 +0000

I am sure many of you girls can relate to this. As you sweep through your 20s and begin your 30s, many changes starts to occur in your skin and there is nothing you can do to stop this process from happening; like developing wrinkles, losing elasticity in your skin, dullness, discoloration, and adult acne. What you can do though is give your skin some TLC (Tender.Loving.Care) to slow down the process by doing diligent maintenance such as washing, cleansing, exfoliating, moisturizing, etc. As for myself, I began to see some of these changes slowly showing up, as I am no longer that “Spring Chicken” anymore who doesn’t need to put in too much effort to maintain myself. I started to see fine lines popping up, dry patches, acne, and discoloration around my eyes. Note: I had this issue due to wearing glasses for a long period starting at a young age. Anyway, with all this craziness happening to my skin I began to pay more attention to it.

Here is my review on a product that I am excited about!!! I have to say I’ve never been this excited for a product that actually gives instant results. I heard many great reviews for this product over the past few years and I finally decided to try it out myself. I purchased the Olay Professioinal Prox Advanced Cleansing System off Amazon.com recently for $26 with Super Savers Free Shipping. It is an awesome deal compared to the Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System, which costs four times more. At one point I have thought about hitting the button and just buying the Clarisonic Skin Cleansing System since so many have raved about it, but it was just too expensive for my budget.

I have always been a fan of Olay. I’ve used their Olay Moisturizer Lotion for many years and never had a problem with it, so I figured I give this Advanced Cleansing System a try. After my first try I was pleasantly surprised that it got rid of the white/black heads on my nose. It REALLY DID!! Before this product I have yet come across another one that can remove the white and black heads on my nose, not even the Biore nose strips, because my pores are very small and closed up so it makes it difficult to remove them instantly compared to people with open or large pores. The rest of my face feels refreshed and smoother, even though my face was pretty smooth to begin with, but I felt a difference after using it. Two thumbs up for Olay!

Go Giants! Go Madonna!

I never really pay much attention to football until yesterday’s Superbowl where the Giants played the Patriots. Maybe sometimes, it takes a certain individual to influence you to like certain things. All I can say is that the Giants kicked a$$ in the last 4 mins of the game and Madonna put on a really SICK show during half-time. For a 50 year old, she is still rocking it like she’s in her 20s. I think I will definitely go to her concert this year before she retires.

Watch Madonna’s half time show here.

Chinese Are Fast

Maigal — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 16:02:22 +0000

As a Chinese woman, I am so proud of my people. We came a long way to be on top of the human species and now we are finally here. We have money and power, with billions of Chinese everywhere. I think the reason why we are so accomplished is because we do everything quick and efficiently. We do our math quick, cook quick, copy quick, learn quick, work quick and probably have quick sex too. Where do you think the billion Chinese came from? Because of Chinese people’s quick skills, no wonder we manufacture everything in China. I never had to wait long in line at McDonald when I was in China, but here in the United States those fat a$$ workers are so damn slow. The Wendy’s on Broadway in SoHo is the slowest one I ever been to. We shouldn’t call them fast food restaurant, we should call them a slow food restaurant. Here is a video of a Chinese company called Broad Group who built a 30-story hotel in just 15 days. Now that’s fast!

Wall Street GREED

Maigal — Thu, 27 Oct 2011 21:17:43 +0000

With the Occupy Wall Street protest getting bigger and gaining more momentum, Margin Call is the perfect movie to watch. Click on the link to view. The greed on wall street affected everyone since 2008 and we have yet to recover from it. I lost about $20k in the stock market as well as my job. This was the turning point where I decided to work for myself and started MyHappyFinds.com, as well as hosting Asian social networking events and became a real estate agent. I guess in a way, it gave me the push to do whatever the hell I want with my life.

Double Eyelids Instantly

Maigal — Fri, 24 Jul 2009 14:31:53 +0000

Double eyelid surgery is the #1 surgery performed in Asia, especially in Korea. They all want that nice crease to make their eyes bigger, rounder and more amenable to makeup. But not all of us want to go under the knife. I am a single eyelid girl and I have the perfect alternative to have double-eyelids instantly. It’s called the double-eyelid tape. It’s sold in most Asian pharmacies, beauty stores and online (ebay).

Here is a demonstration on how to apply double eyelid tape. Click to see more…

You need double eyelid tape and a tweezer.

Step 1 - Make sure your lids are clean.

Step 2 - Apply the tape onto your lids.

Step 3 - Voila... You have double eyelids instantly.

Step 4 - With some make-up and fake lashes, you are ready to go.

Cover Those Erasers

Maigal — Fri, 10 Jul 2009 18:49:37 +0000

Bandage instead of nipple covers?

There are three main reasons why women wear bras:

1) Support

2) To make your boobs look bigger

3) To cover up those nipples

I don’t care about the support nor the bigger boobs but I am conscious about those two erasers poking out of my shirt. There are bras made for most tops to prevent anything poking through, but when it comes to a backless or really low cut top you have to go braless. The solution, nipple covers. There are nipple covers out there that sell for $6 to $8 for 3 pairs. You can buy them at Amazon for $6. But what if you don’t have nipple covers when you want to wear your sexy low cut dress or top? Well, I have a simple home-made solution for you. Just use two larger sized bandages. Tape each bandage vertically on each side of your boobs. Make sure it’s a fabric bandage so it can molded easily into the shape of your breast. I tried it once and it worked wonders. Duane Reade is selling their own brand fabric bandage for $4.99 for a pack of 20 bandages. Hope you like my tip.
