Empties | May 2016


These are the products that I finished in May 2016:

1. Essence Cookies and Cream Hand Balm | 100 ml | Made in Poland
This was a limited edition hand balm by Essence and had the scent of cookies! Mmmm....yum!

2. Tesco Loves Baby Moisturising Baby Wipes | 30 Sheets 
 Made in Malaysia
Unlike the previous packs of Tesco Loves Baby Wipes which were made in Korea, this one is made in Malaysia. I didn't notice a difference in quality though.

3. Guardian Dental Mint Floss | 60 m | Made in China
This dental floss is the thicker sort. It was okay, but kind of a struggle to slide between close set teeth.

One Utama Shopping Centre e-Duit Raya Promotion

I was in One Utama Shopping Centre and saw a sign saying that for every RM20 of e-Duit Raya purchased online through their online store OneShop, they would match it and give another RM20. This promotion was, however, only for the first 200 online transactions.

I decided to try my luck and purchased RM20 e-duit raya and guess what --- a few minutes after I received my e-Duit Raya gift card in my email, I received another email telling me that I was given a RM20 e-Duit Raya rebate also via an online gift card!

It basically means that I got my RM20 e-Duit Raya gift card purchase matched with another RM20 e-Duit Raya! Woohooo!!! I'm a happy bunny as that means more shopping money for me!

The e-Duit Raya, when redeemed, will be transferred into my existing OneCard account which can be used as a debit card when shopping in any of the participating shops (and there are many) in One Utama Shopping Centre.

Takeaway of the day: It pays to read the signages, sometimes :)

D.I.Y. Skin Tag Removal --- An Experiment

I've had this skin tag that has been hanging on for dear life somewhere on my left underarm for a quite a number of years now and although I have been curious in the past about removing it myself, I was also quite worried if something else happened (i.e. it getting infected and such). 

For the record, I have tried the Tea Tree Oil method a few years ago and NOTHING happened.

A few nights ago though, I tried tying the skin tag with a piece of dental floss and tightened the dental floss as much as I could. I have to admit that it stung a little bit. I left the ends of the dental floss long and loose so that I could easily tighten the knot as and when needed. 

On the second day, the skin tag turned dark and it looked kind of shrilvelled and dried out.  

This morning, as I was doing my chores at home, I felt a sting in the area of the skin tag and later, when I looked at my underarm, it was GONE and it didn't even bleed! OMG, this really works! :O
