冬至快乐

今天，是中国人的冬至，一個全年日最短，夜最长的一日。这天，依照传统，家家户户都會各自团聚在一起过节。

其实，古罗马人也在差不多的日子(12月25日)，一家人走在一起纪念冬至，其意义也是一樣：黑暗已深，光明溫暖正開始降临。

直至四世紀中叶(主后336年)，從罗马城开始，冬至被无厘头地改成记念耶穌降生的节庆（其实12月25日並沒有什么历史根据作为耶穌的生日），或許罗马教會的本意，是想藉冬至這天，去类比耶穌降生的意义：黑暗已深，光明溫暖（耶穌是世上的光）已開始降临。

原來，不管是中国的冬至，抑或是西方的圣诞，其节日意义都在带出彼此共融，一起积极地期盼。

在此，祝愿大家冬至快乐。

2011兔年十二生肖的幸运颜色

新的一年就快要来到了，除了圣诞节日的货品之外，你会发现在街上，杂货店，和 shopping mall里已开始卖新年的货品了。这让我感觉有点急，在没有心理准备之下，好像在催我们必须要准备新年的东西了。不过，算起来华人的新年也只剩下1个月半了(3/2/2011 CNY)， 也许我是时候要进货了，又要花费了，想起都怕。

在每一年里我都会检查自己的幸运颜色，虽然我是基督教徒，但是我个人还是有点相信颜色对人的运程是有相关的。这次我从一个网站里找到了2011兔年生肖所用的开运颜色，只有最适合自己的颜色才能够给自己带来好运，才能够趋利避害。那么，到了2011年12生肖最适合的开运颜色是什么呢？一起来看看吧～

属鼠：  
    在2011兔年属鼠者最好用蓝色或红色，这里特别提醒朋友们注意：上半年出生的最好用蓝色、下半年出生的最好用红色。蓝色和红色其实在兔年都适合属鼠的朋友，可谓蓝红通吃、万事如意哦。 
 
属牛：  
    属牛者在2011兔年，提醒你的幸运色彩是黄色系列。黄色会让属牛的朋友脚步加快，放下包袱、做事轻轻松松、功成名就。  

属虎：  
    属虎者在2011兔年，建议你使用白色，因为它是你2011兔年的色彩能量。换了主色彩，你会发现自己更健康、更富有活力，由此新的局面也将随之而来

属兔：  
　　2011年，属兔者的色彩能量认为是红色，最好是偏紫色、因为2011是兔年、本命年，因此冲煞较多，又因为五黄煞气来临在东方，因此用可以用赤色来化解煞气。
  
属龙：  
    属龙者的幸运色彩在2011年建议用绿色、最好是青色；也是因为流年所致，让此色与本性色相融，少些灾难、多些幸福。  

属蛇：  
    与以往紫色能量是属蛇者的色彩能量类似，2011兔年凡灰色系列的颜色都能让属蛇逢凶化吉、好事成双。当然也建议紫色是你始终可用的一种颜色。  

属马：  
   与属蛇者类似，2011兔年天蓝色依然成了属马者的色彩能量。稳定的发展终究实现自己的理想。不过也建议银灰色也可以成为你的另一个好色彩。  

属羊：  
    属羊者在兔年请多运用黑色系列来帮助自己，认为属羊者也可用淡黄色来趋利避害，比如钱包、手包等。如此，两种系列颜色均可收工完美。  

属猴：  
    属猴者在兔年劝你使用白色，白色可以为属猴者克服先天不足，从而可以帮助属猴者心想事成、万事如意，尤其是防止小人捣鬼。  

属鸡：  
    属鸡者2011兔年因为冲太岁，因此最好的颜色认为是暗红色，这样可以让属鸡在兔年少些冲太岁，少些是非，让生活工作更顺利。
  
属狗：  
    属狗者在2011兔年，希望属狗的朋友能用咖啡色纳入自己的幸运色彩之中，那么你依然能成为事业和爱情战场上的佼佼者。同时百尺竿头，更进一步。  

属猪：  
    在2011兔年灰色是属猪者的幸运好色彩，尽管认为属猪者宽容性很大，似乎什么颜色都能和谐共存，但是，毕竟兔年的主色彩是灰色为主，才能让自己收获多多。    

    需要注意的是，上述所述，只是共性，每个人的个性色彩如何，最好的方法还是通过排测自己的命理来分析而定。上述特别提供12属相的不同色彩运用，目的就是希望朋友们在色彩问题上有的放矢，从而让自己更好的扬长避短.　

7 Tips on How to apply Mascara

Your mascara can make or break your make up look, and using it wrong can mean you're either using too little and look like you are not wearing any mascara or you are using far too much and risk to resemble a panda.

I remember it wasn't easy to get a hand of applying mascara when I first started to wear it. So here are my 7 tips for applying mascara which will help you create the perfect lashes from the start.

1. Choose you mascara...
With so many different types of mascara, it's important to pick the one that suits each occasion best. I'd recommend lengthening mascara for the day time, and curling/thickening mascara for your nights out!

2. Pick your color carefully...
If you have dark eyelashes, use dark brown or black in the day and black for more the night drama. If you have red or blonde eyelashes, choose light brown for casual look, and dark brown for night time. 

3. Curl your eyelashes...
Now you've sorted out which mascara to use, apply all of your other eye make up, and the curl your eyelashes slightly. Personally, I find that padded eyelash curlers do this so much better, as metal ones just seem to bend my eyelashes. The best one I've tried is the Shu Uemura curler.

4. Be careful with pulling out the wand...
Pull out the wand in one motion, as pumping introduces air to the tube and this can lead to drying out. It can also allow bacteria to enter. Make sure both the wand and the edge of the tube are clean or you won't get a smooth application.

5. Apply to upper eyelashes...
Place the wand on the underside of your upper eyelashes. Slowly move it upwards towards the tip in zigzag motions. Use the wand at an angle to add more curl and definition, and be careful not to blink for a few seconds until it is dry. Apply a second coat for more drama.

6. Apply to lower eyelashes...
Use a lot less mascara, and start at the lower eyelid. Slowly pull down, to color the lower eyelashes.

7. Remove Stray mascara...
Use a cotton bud to remove any mascara around the eye. You can recurl the reapply if you think that this is necessary.

The Most Recommended Eyes Mascara:
1. Lancome Oscillation Vibration Power Mascara that makes it worth the extra expense. It producing lovely, long, defined lashes, the vibrating brush combines with an exquisitely smooth formula wrap every lash up to 360 degree. This mascara comes with a long, thin applicator brush, its separated bristles coat and lengthen each individual lash.

2. If you prefer a budget-friendly mascara, Maybelline Full 'n Soft mascara is an excellent choice. Its ability to add volume to lashes, while giving wearers a softer, natural look. The formula is fragrance-free and hypoallergenic, good for sensitive eyes.

3. DiorShow Mascara creates the longest, thickest, curviest lashes ever, resulting in an ultra-glam "just-off-the-catwalk" look. The mascara comes with an oblique-shaped brush with long, skinny rubber bristles to better grab lashes, adds more dramatic length and definition than many brands.

Dior DiorShow Mascara

4. Yves Saint Laurent Luxurious Mascara Volume Effect Faux Clis. If you want a lighter and more subtle curl. It builds beautifully and thickens well without clumps giving lashes a soft, fringed curl. It also easy to remove with a facial cleanser. This product is safe for sensitive eyes and contact wearers, but the inclusion of fragrance, a known irritant. It dries out faster than other brands. Price is costly.

5. And Last, my most favorite brand, Chanel Inimitable Multidimensionnel Mascara. A sophisticated formula and unique brush design combine to lengthen, plump and curl, delivering lush, long-wearing color so precisely that each lash, even the finest is perfectly defined and separated. I've been using it and applying it is the best part of my daily makeup routine. But it is very pricey.

”徐子珊“ 在Malaysia 代言 GUESS 的品牌

6/12/2010, Monday: 那天早上我一个人到Midvalley逛街，因为打算买圣诞礼物和买一些新的衣服给我的男朋友。他一直都很难买到适合他自己的衣服，他一向来都很怕热，所以对衣服的质料和款式有很大要求，太厚，太粗，款式幼稚和老土都不行。人家都说处女座是最挑剔了，其实天评座的男生还蛮多要求的，比我还会选，哈哈！

过后，我到GUESS的店里逛了一下后，就选了两件男生衣服。付钱的时候，那里的 staff 就告诉我徐子珊的到访。由于我是GUESS的VIP, 那里的 staff 就邀请了我留下来看徐子珊。我很兴奋的答应了，因为我一直都很想看徐子珊本人，觉得她样子很酷很会跳舞。趁有点时间，我便到附近走走寻找礼物，直到下午3点多我便回到Guess的店里等待徐子珊的到来。开心！

人体24小时使用手册

爱熬夜的朋友要多留意身体哦！长时间熬夜的朋友，不妨多喝绿茶，因为绿茶除了能提神和养神之效，更具备提高人体免疫能力和抗癌的功效。此外，还能补充水分，排除身体内的毒素，还可以预防电脑辐射线。

其实我也是熬夜之一，喜欢到晚上的时候才工作，都会在长达的时间对着电脑或追看电视剧，直到眼睛累到不行，才甘言去休息。也许觉得年龄大了，身体很容易疲倦，有时候还会风湿痛，身体终于开始亮起红灯了。

据说长期熬夜的人，比较容易发脾气，精神抑郁度较高，更易遭癌症之害，因为癌细胞是在细胞分裂中产生的，而细胞分裂多在睡眠中进行。熬夜使睡眠规律发生紊乱，影响细胞正常分裂，从而导致细胞突变，产生癌细胞。健康的生活习惯和有规律的睡眠可使体内的荷尔蒙正常分泌，并保持相对平衡，从而保证生命器官在一个稳定的内环境中工作。如果经常熬夜，正常运行规律就会被扰乱，激素的分泌规律也不同程度的损害，从而危害健康。

唯一的是经常熬夜的人记忆力会更强，思维更敏捷，所以早睡早起肯定有坏处，但跟好处比起来就微不足道了。请参考以下人体 24 小时的排毒时间。

晚上 9-11点为免疫系统（淋巴）排毒时间，此段时间应安静或听音乐
晚间 11-凌晨1点，肝的排毒，需在熟睡中进行。
凌晨 1-3点，胆的排毒，亦同。
凌晨 3-5点，肺的排毒。此即为何咳嗽的人在这段时间咳得最剧烈，因排毒动作已走到肺；不应用止咳药，以免抑制废积物的排除。
凌晨 5-7点，大肠的排毒，应上厕所排便。
早上 7-9点，小肠大量吸收营养的时段，应吃早餐。
疗病者最好早吃，在6点半前，养生者在7点半前，
不吃早餐者应改变习惯，即使拖到9、10点吃都比不吃好。
半夜至凌晨4点为脊椎造血时段，必须熟睡，不宜熬夜。

附：人体24小时使用手册 :
1∶00 人体进入浅睡阶段，易醒。此时头脑较清楚，熬夜者想睡反而睡不着。
2∶00 绝大多数器官处于一天中工作最慢的状态，肝脏却在紧张工作，生血气为人体排毒。
3∶00 进入深度睡眠阶段，肌肉完全放松。
4∶00 “黎明前的黑暗”时刻，老年人最易发生意外。血压处于一天中最低值，糖尿病病人易出现低血糖，心脑血管患者易发生心梗等。
5∶00 阳气逐渐升华，精神状态饱满。
6∶00 血压开始升高，心跳逐渐加快。高血压患者得吃降压药了。
7∶00 人体免疫力最强。吃完早饭，营养逐渐被人体吸收。
8∶00 各项生理激素分泌旺盛，开始进入工作状态。
9∶00 适合打针、手术、做体检等。此时人体气血活跃，大脑皮层兴奋，痛感降低。
10∶00 工作效率最高。
10∶00-11∶00属于人体的第一个黄金时段。心脏充分发挥其功能，精力充沛，不会感到疲劳。
12∶00 紧张工作一上午后，需要休息。
12∶00-13∶00是最佳"子午觉"时间。不宜疲劳作战，最好躺着休息半小时至一小时。
14∶00 反应迟钝。易有昏昏欲睡之感，人体应激能力降低。
15∶00 午饭营养吸收后逐渐被输送到全身，工作能力开始恢复。
15∶00-17∶00为人体第二个黄金时段。最适宜开会、公关、接待重要客人。
16∶00 血糖开始升高，有虚火者此时表现明显。阳虚、肺结核等患者的脸部最红。
17∶00 工作效率达到午后时间的最高值，也适宜进行体育锻炼。
18∶00 人体敏感度下降，痛觉随之再度降低。
19∶00 最易发生争吵。此时是人体血压波动的晚高峰，人们的情绪最不稳定。

海底椰罗汉果糖水

最近天气炎热，突然心血来潮想煮一些糖水来喝，就去巴刹买了一包新鲜的嫩海底椰，过后到药材店里买了罗汉果和一些材料。据说海底椰是一种夏季常见的汤料，有滋阴润肺、除燥清热、润肺止咳等作用，所以就决定要煮 “海底椰罗汉果糖水”。

做法很简单，先把水煮滚，然后把所有的材料放进去，过了20分钟后就把罗汉果加进去。这样做的原因是想先把海底椰煮透和听说罗汉果不能煮太久的，所以就到最后才加进去。我的妈妈曾经煮太久，当我们喝了后，喉咙就感觉不舒服了。这个糖水只要煮一个小时就够了。现在自己搬出来住后，就要自己煮了，这次也是小妹第一次煮的糖水。我和我的男朋友都很爱喝，尤其放进冰箱里，更加津津有味哦。如果买不到新鲜的海底椰，也可以买罐装的蜜糖海底椰。然后再根据个人口味调整甜味即可。


假设你嫌麻烦，有个比较简单的做法是，你可以加一点红枣，龙眼，罗汉果，海底椰，和一些片糖调味，煮45分钟或一小时后就完成咯。

减肥健身饮料 

[原料] 罗汉果10克, 蜂蜜适量, 山楂片10克, 净水250克 

[制法] 1. 罗汉果洗净、压碎，山楂洗净，与罗汉果同放锅中。 2.锅内加净水，上火煮熟后，去渣留汁倒入杯中。 3. 将蜂蜜适量放入杯中，搅匀，作夏季饮料饮用。

Prepare for Friend's Wedding Dinner

14th November 2010 - The day is one of my best friend's wedding day. (Henry and Sharon) So I was selected to be my friend's bridesmaid and everyone is wearing pink dress as the role of bridesmaid (Cantonese is Ji Mui).

In the early morning, we need to reached the bride's house at 7 a.m to prepare the marriage games for bridegroom's friends, so called "brothers". There is some interesting game such as Yoga poses, drink 4 types of juices, glue a love shape by red bean, sing a love song and more.

In the same day we had a wedding dinner at 6 a.m. I am actually no time to get a rest after back from the bridegroom's house where it located in Kajang, Saujana Villa and it took about one hour to reach my home. So I have only 2 hours for me to take a bath, make-up, set hair and wear my dinner dress. And yes, the picture is when I was preparing to go for wedding dinner (after make up look).

Congratulations to my both friends - Henry Bek and Sharon Fam

The Power of Make-Up

My love affair with make-up began when I was 15 years old. I have a fair eyes lashes, and it was at that age that I wore mascara for the first time. Everyone around me commented on how is the radical change was and how good I looked, and I loved the appreciation.

Vivien's Tips

• Start eye make-up by curling your eyelashes. It opens up the eyes, which instantly makes you look younger. Shu Uemura Eyelash Curlers give the best result. How? Look down and clench the curlers as close to the root as possible. Repeat a couple more times, gradually moving the curlers further out along the lashes.
• The most universally beautifying make-up product is mascara. It intensifies, defines and brings out the eye. My favorites are Channel Inimitable for long, defined lashes, and YSL Faux Clis. Apply it to the top and bottom lashes, dragging out at the outer corner of the eye for a sexier look.
• A cream blush will give a fresh, healthy summer glow and is perfect for the beach. For best results, smile and apply to the apple of the cheek, blend well, to avoid any lines and edges, then build up color to the desired effect. Try Mac Blush-creme in Posey, Laid Back or Liliscrent.
• Bobbi Brown Eye Brightener is my favorite for the under-eye area, as it smoothes over any shadows. You will instantly look more awake and youthful. Blend it well with your finger. Laura Mercer Secret Brightening Powder, applied with a small brush, is the final touch for a fresh, no shadows look.
• Light-colored lipsticks and glosses make lips look bigger. Chanel makes gorgeous glosses in pretty, juicy shades. My favorite is Levres Scintillantes in Pralines No.46. The texture is so good that it slides onto the lips and stays on without feeling sticky.

Facial Massage Therapy: A Step by Step Guide

Face and Head Massage

The Face Massage and Head Massage is a particularly pleasurable experience most people will be surprised at the amount of tension they hold here, particularly around the jaw. There is not usually time for a full face and head massage as part of full-body massage. You might like to try it on its own or in combination with a back and shoulder.

Face Massage Steps:

1. Cup hands around the head, with thumbs resting on the forehead and fingertips at the temples. Smooth out the forehead in strips-starting along the eyebrows, working up toward the hairline.
2. Press between the eyebrows with your thumbs. Repeat, moving up the center of the forehead to the hairline.
3. Massage temples, using circular motion with fingers. Continue circles down along the jawbone to chin.
4. Using your fingertips, draw a line under the cheekbone and out to the temples. Repeat, taking the line lower down the cheek each time.
5. Use the fingertips to draw a big mustache shape from the upper lip out to the temples, and circle the temples one more time.
6. Press softly around the upper bone of the eye sockets, starting from the bridge of the nose, out to the corner of the eye. Repeat, this time working carefully around the eye socket under the eyes.
7. Gently massage the ears between your thumbs and fingers, starting at the earlobe and moving around and up to the top of the ear.
8. Pull ears very gently, again starting with the lobe and moving gradually to the top of the ear.
9. Cup hands and rest them over the eyes (It's best to warm your partner before you do this). Ask your partner to breathe in and out deeply several times. Release the hands.

Massage Don'ts:

The throat is another vulnerable area of the body. Although the sides and back of the neck can be massaged, avoid working directly across the throat itself.

The face is naturally more oily than the other parts of the body. Unless the receiver has particularly dry skin, you will not need to add extra oil at this stage.

Head Massage Steps:

1. Cup forehead in hands once more and press in the middle of the forehead at hairline. Continue pressing upward to the crown of the head.
2. Supporting the head in the hands and with fingers at the base of the skull, massage the entire scalp.
3. Draw fingers lightly through the hair several times, and off at the crown.

Massage Tips:

If your partners hair is very thick, avoid the possibility of getting your fingers caught in tangles by drawing your fingers over the top of the hair instead.

Vitamin C is necessary to produce new collagen

Collagen is essential for the underlying structure of our muscles, tendons, cartilage, ligaments, and bones. Collagen supports the skin, whicCollagen is essential for the underlying structure of our muscles, tendons, cartilage, ligaments, and bones. Collagen supports the skin, which is why the loss of collagen results in sagging skin and wrinkles. Collagen also supports the body's natural movements. This is why the loss of collagen results in sagging skin and wrinkles. Collagen also supports the body's natural movements.

Many people with arthritis or bone-related pain report increased function and decreased pain when using collagen as a supplement. If you are considering orthopedic surgery or are in pain, strongly consider a collagen supplement program to see if you can improve your functionality, endurance and reduce pain levels.

Many people also use collagen topically and via supplementation for improving the appearance of hair, skin and nails. Currently many lip plumper, skin products and other collagen supplements increase collage upon application and tout this because collagen is thought to create a more youthful appearance.

Determine accompanying supplements. Vitamin C's prime function is to make collagen, Lysine aids in collagen formation. If you cannot tolerate Vitamin C supplements due to gout or other medications, consider the C Ester form of Vitamin C that is known as Ascorbyl Palmatate, it is readily available and is less acidic so the body tolerates it better. If you cannot take Vitamic C as a supplement, look to increase your Vitamin C food intake, as collagen must have Vitamin C to work.

Select a brand that you can reasonably afford to purchase for daily use, without skimping on cost.

Quick Tips:

Collagen overdoses are unlikely, so dosages do not need to be precise. Collagen is the key building block of supporting muscles, bones, and skin.

Glycolic acid work on Acne and Scar to reproduce a smoother skin surface for a more Youthful appearance!

I have heard that a lot of people complain about having Pimples and Scar problem. Not to worry, I’ve finally found a product which work to reduce acne and scar which not only works for the face but also any part of body.

Glycolic acid is perhaps the best-known within a group of chemicals called fruit acids or alpha-hydroxy acids (AHA). It is derived from sugar cane, so it can be considered as a natural product.

Glycolic acid works as an exfoliating agent because of its high acidity but also easy solubility. When placed on the skin, being an exfoliating cream or gel, this glycolic acid goes under the damaged upper layers of skin and destroys the 'glue' which holds dead skin to the surface. Hence the dead skin is chemically burned off. This results a much-smoother skin surface.
