THE LITTLE ARTIST

.

I'm taking a leave today after spending one whole saturday in Janda Baik with mommy bloggers yang sungguh sporting dan mengancam, then yesterday at my parents in law's open house, melayan tetamu-tetamu yang datang dengan meriahnya.

Because of that, this morning when Oman opened his eyes, terus senyum when he saw me next to him.

Oman kemain lagi sekarang, he wakes up few times in the middle of the night and crying for me if i wasn't sleeping beside him. Momma dah jadi macam pinball pulak. Kejap tido atas kejap tido bawah. Heeeee.

Ever since Oman been introduced to pen/pencil/colour pencil/crayon, his love towards drawing developed tremendously. If not on paper, table and wall pun boleh. Ada satu hari tu lepas balik kerja, hampir pengsan bila I nampak dinding, siap sarung kusyen yg white colour tu jadi kertas lukisan Oman. Terpaksa jadi garang cakap nak pukul tinggi-tinggi (maksudnya tangan tinggi kat atas sebelum hayun untuk babab dia). He was scared for about... 5 minutes. Haiya!!

Momma: Oman lukis apa tu ney?
Oman: Car
Momma: Ooooo.. cantiknya!!

Momma: Oman lukis apa tu ney?
Oman: Ball
Momma: Ooooo.. cantiknya!!

Momma: Oman lukis apa tu ney?
Oman: combi
Momma: Ooooo.. cantiknya!!

Tetap i puji dia you, walaupun sebenarnya his drawings looked like non other than the mother of worms, or baby worms, or their relatives. Ngeh ngeh =)

2 months ago, that's the first time when Oman's NOT drawing worms. He showed me this,

Ish jangan pikir bebukan ek!!

Momma: Eh ni apa ni Oman?
Oman: Banana la. Oman dah cabut kulit dia.
Momma: Oooooo. (phew!!) =D

and came up his second drawing, mee goreng.

He told me he didn't draw the telur mata on top of that mee because bibik said telur dah habis.

Omai!! Kids imaginations nowadays are seriously impressive!! :)

Oman can draw lollipop and the traffic light too.

Kurus je Traffic Light Oman

and Today, Oman discovered one more; The Aeroplane. I manage to record Cara-cara Oman lukis Aeroplane. Jom tengok!

Amboi kuku. Siap kamu! :p

Tadaaa!!!

Because of his so much passion towards drawing, i am currently having this apps installed in my phone and his ipod;

"Whiteboard Lite"

So far, Oman loves it a lot! It helps to save his airmata whenever he wants to draw but no paper or pencil/pen is around. It's also now becoming one of his favourite activity in the car. :)

Because of this passion too, Oman's now having his own simple colorful workstation. Mudah untuk dia mencurahkan ilham-ilham (Memang he uses it very well, tak sampai seminggu, habis satu meja sampai ke kaki-kaki meja tu dia curahkan ilham dia!! =D)

We Love you, Dadda and Momma 's Little Artist!!

NEUTROGENA® FIGHTS AGING LAYER-BY-LAYER

.

Imagine that you're a fifty years old lady, having a mom-daughter's day out with your twenties daughter and suddenly both of you bumped with her friends and....

Friend 1: Babe!!!
Your daughter: Hi girls!! Tak sangka jumpa you ols!! Please meet my mom.
Friend 2: em geeee!! your mom??? You both look like sisters!!
Friend 1: Hello Aunty!! you look so young tau!
You: Eh xdela u ols ni saje je taww.. aunty dah 50 tawww (walaupun bebudak tu x tanya :P. Pastu tersipu-sipu sambil betul muncung tudung/main-main rambut/kuis-kuis tanah.)

Heeeeeee... that's the real feeling! I think when people say you look younger than your age is actually one of the biggest complement for a woman. Kan?

But not everyone is lucky to have forever young-looking skin by default. At some point, please admit that you need some help from technology too... Like I do!

Recently, I was invited by Nuffnang to an event with Neutrogena® at Ciao Ristorante, KL. It's an official launch of its new age-fighting skincare range product called,

THE AGELESS

As aging skin needs a skin deep solution, Neutrogena® is now making an inovative step forward with introducing Breakthrough Layer-by-Layer Technology that penetrates deep into THREE different skin layers for firmer and youthful-looking skin.

When i read through this brief introduction, i feel very excited. Macam tau-tau pulak ye yang i ni tengah cari age-fighting skincare. Ahem :)

With Nadia, who's also invited to the event, we reached the restaurant quite early. After registering ourselves at the registration counter, we were brought to a very nice setting corner where the refreshment is served. Hai, molek bebeno le.

Love the red and white setting!!

Yummy canapés

At 8pm when all the invited bloggers have arrived, the event started with a warmth welcome speech from the Neutrogena® Regional R&D spokesperson, Mr Cash. He was then continued with his presentation on skin-aging, Neutrogena's innovation and ingredient efficacy.

To be honest, I am quite impressed to see a man knowing so much about woman skin.

Now lemme be the next Mr Cash. :p

The outermost of our skin is called Epidermis and the inner is called Dermis. Epidermis ni nipis, manakala dermis pula tebal. There are 2 types of dermis; papillary and reticular. (eh terasa macam cikgu bio pulak)

Now, let's see the difference between young skin and aged skin.

Young skin: skin that is firmed and elastic

Kulit yang muda adalah kulit yang anjal dan bounce back nyer cepat kalau ditekan ke dalam. Cuba tekan kulit anda sekarang. :)

Aged skin: skin that is wrinkled and sagging

When your skin is dry, looking dull, wrinkled and rough, that's the signs that your skin needs more attention. At one point of time, if nothing is done, your skin will start loosing its elasticity and resilience. Bear in mind that this is the most critical component of aging.

When aging makes appearance at epidermis, it will increase skin dehydration. Furthermore, the rate of your skin cell renewal will be slower than before. As for dermis, aging will reduce structural protein (collagen and elastin) and flattening the dermal epidural junction.

Ok i takut!!

I tak takut tua you, tapi i takut kalau umur i 40 nanti, kulit i dah macam 60. My son's friends may mistakenly think that i am his grandmother. *Pengsan

Untuk itu, Neutrogena® is now providing a comprehensive solution with Advanced Age-Fighting Complex to act on three different skin layers. So each skin layer is strengthened. Visible aging signs are minimized and skin glows with youthful vibrancy.

Cemana tu?

Lepas ni nak jadikan blackberry sebagai ulam harian, boleh? :)

Takde inject-inject tau. Selain dari vitamin B3, Neutrogena® telah menggabungkan penggunaan bahan-bahan semula jadi for effective anti aging combination. The advance age-fighting complex are;

1) Renews top layer:
Vitamin B3 firms skin and smoothes fine lines for youthful vibrancy.

2) Replenishes middle layer:
Moisture-locking Southernwood Extract hydrates for suppleness.

3) Repairs bottom layer:Antioxidant Dill and Blackberry Extracts help restore lost elastin and strengthen skin’s structure.

Dan hasilnya Ten Tenenggggggggg...

You can see your skin texture improvement after 8 weeks of usage. Wau!!

This was when Mr Cash performing skin elasticity test to Cosmocrazewoman
She has a superb skin! :)

Listening to Mr Cash explanation.
I dunno what condition my skin is :(
(Tula sapa suruh tanak volunteer! pfftt!)

We both really love the smell of Ageless range. Serious wangi okeh!

Trying out the Anti-Wrinkle and Firming Cream.
Ultra-Soft! I like!

Excited nak cuba Eye Cream. Almaklumla keadaan mataku dah kritikal. :)

Never skip the eye cream because the eye area is most vulnerable to aging signs. Noted!

A TV host, Maryjune Tan, has exclaimed her testimonial on this product;

"Before i used the Neutrogena® Ageless Anti-Wrinkle and Firming cream, I thought it sounded too good to be true. But i have used many Neutrogena® products and they never disappoint, so i decided to give it a try. The result is amazing! Within a short time of application, the fine lines were gone replaced by a soft, glowing complexion. I even find myself secretly touching my own face sometimes just to feel how smooth it is!"

Bestnya dengar perkataan glowing tu kan!!?? :)
