Skincare Routineeee!!

Yes, 2 minutes right after publishing my 'Alcoholic Father story' . ><




24th April 2019, next week exam!
Hari Guru SMIK.


Hello, people! Today I decided to tell you guys about my skin secret. I thought lot of u guys can handle these teenage sensitive skins, but there are some asked me about what I wear & I never thought people will think about my skin is like what i thought i would never be. A little kaget here, actually. Hehe.

So there might some of you gonna ask, is it OK to have skincare stuffs i mean, does own it can against the syara'? The answer is, having skincare thingies is OK as long as it's halal (make sure you check the halal logo on your products before buy it! Maybe for some opinions, nobody is going to care. But trust me, i do care about your skincare status cuz are you, gonna take off your skin everutime you wanna pray or during ibadah? and MY DAD cares about mine. He ever throw away my VERY NEW-NOT EVEN TOUCHED-FACE WASH because there is no halal logo. And i'm proud to have him as my daddie ❤)   and not causing anything bad to yourself. Plus, remember this words (in case cause i live with this quote at school since i was 7.)

ان الله جميل ، يحب جميل 

Indeed, Allah is beautiful and loves beautiful things.

Tbh, I dont own any lives like u guys; having tons of skin care products such as cleanser, serum, toner, moisturizer. I live a veeery simple life for I own a very simplicity mother. >< hahaha. Plus, my mom will say "  eh, i dont wear this or that, so why should u? " or another, " if u wanted to be pretty like me, u dont need all that. First when i started wearing  a chinese-brand face cleanser i bought at kedai runcit is when i was 20. In the meantime, i dont even care what people say about my skin hm " or other, " grandma would never let me use those chemical stuff " -DEFINITELY MY MOM.  Plus, i own my grandma in my mom side and my father's genetics. THEY DONT HAVE PIMPLES Thankyouu ! Maybe this is another reason why mom wouldnt let me um. So w/out wasting time, let's get into our objective, my skincare routine. 


1. Cleanser



 Every morning, after i woke up, i will wash my face using this, Garnier face wash Light Complete Brightening Foam. It only costs 10 ringgits and it suits my skin perfectly! I wash my face using this cleanser only ONCE a day  which is every morning i go to school. I only take a squirt like 1 cm lenght and no more. 

Before this, when i was 13, i picked Syahirah because it seemed light on my skin, but man it is TOO light. Like it resulted nothing. Moving to teenage phase skin, pimples started to pop out. But my mom said because i was to ngada2 wear something unecessary.

Then i move to Safi Manggis. I saw my friend, Alieah Atikah's skin, she has a fair and lovely skin cehh. And she said that she wear Safi. But man, this thing has the same value like Syahirah before. Too light. I cant handle super oily skin then result pimples and itchy-ness. So i gave up. I dont wear anything back then. But skin is gonna remain skin. Air is getting dirtier and dirtier. I keep complaining to my mom and she introduced her student (since my mom a lecturer) to me. He has that special skill in making natural remedies. So i bought sabun madu. 6 months never be so wonderful and confidence (even i get worst grades haha), the honey soap really works well on my skin; lovely, smooth, and just nice. But, it finished its touch by giving me a veryyyyy yellowish (sawo matang) colour. But who cares as long as i feel pretty though. Hahaha.

After getting done with 7-8 bars of honey soaps, i received a quite disappointing news that Uncle Syahril (mom's student) stopped making this homemade natural skin products. So ya. I went to Speedmart and grab whatever i found and voila!, God made me meet this Garnier, alhamdulillah.

2. Lips 

As for lippie and other rough parts on skin, i use this vaseline. It works so well espeacially during coldest and hottest time in the year. I rub this on my lips twice a week before going to school as it ensures my lips from drying. 💋


For my night date or other fancy occasions, i will have this on the lips. Acts like typical lip balm but the colour shows based on our body temperature. So good since i own it on 2015. It gives the lips natural pinkish colour (baby pink: swatch once.
Natural pink: swatch twice.
Hottie pink: swatch > twice.)

 and it stays. 


3. Pimples 



Yes being a girl there will always pimples await when it comes to period. I use a dot per pimple of this before going to bed and after i woke up the next day,,, BOOM, it gone. 😌 but this and water make the greatest duo, if u didnt know. wudhu' is always nice, for water molecules have charges that will take away the dirts in the skin. Muka bersih, pahala pun dapat!

  warning: this product might not be suitable for some types of skin. Cuz at first using this, it literally feels like hell. Hurt so much man. But after months, i put ONLY dots on my pimples then, it feels much better until today. 



Okay! Thats all for my skin. But overall, the less chemical the better. May all these informations will help u throughout ur days! Salam! <3

A thoughtful lecturer

3 Febuari 2021,   Rabu, Assignment ICT.  Dengar je week 6 , u can imagine how hectic in the world it could be. Sebab asasi UIA 1 sem ada 12 wiks, so half week is equivalent to " cepat la oi lambatnya kau gerakk!! " ☺️ lepastuu semua lecturer mcm plan sama2 je kan nak bagi kerja sekali segedebuk 😚. Berakit-rakit ke hulu, berenang-renang ketepian, bersakit-sakit dahulu, bersenang-senang kemudian langsung tak diaplikasikan 😑 like they give us kerja senang dulu lepastu susah semua hujung2?! And im not even grateful for that.  I am currently in week 9. So 2 weeks past the wik 6 tadi, and i have to admit wik 7 dgn wik 8 memang insane!!! We were given 2-week task so faham2 je la dia bnyak songeh ke tak. However though, i managed to settle down everything before semalam, hari Rabu, week 9.  Cerita dia, semalam i had so much things to do!! Before 10am kena submit Microsoft Excel punya exercise dah la ada 20 latihan gilaaaaaa.  Lepastu, kena submit Built Environmen...

Final project , architecture diary.

 24th October 2020.  It's week 12 everyone and we are done with all the lessons that we are just a week away from final exam! Hundreds of food been eaten, lots of lipstick been used and tons of drawings been submitted.  Being this far, these are the common architectural people culture I've observed: 1. We are too vulnerable  2. THERE IS NO SHY SHY IN OUR DICTIONARY  3. Get used to rejection just like you get used to Corona 4. Keep on STANDING FOR YOUR OWN IDEA Last week my lecturer handed me some of the  BIGGEST drawings I've ever drawn in life and guess i got B+ for musolla interior i made. Let me tell you, the interior was inspired by the Sheikh Zayed mosque which probably you can tell, it is hell gorgeous of course!! But my lecturer did agree with that point, but for some reasons she gave me B+ is because I AM NOT TALENTEN IN DRAWING. LIKE LEGIT SOME OF THE THINGS IN THAT BUILDING LOOKS 2D INSTEAD OF 3D.  Another thing is, she asked me why did i did...

5 minutes parenting experience, i guess

 28th September 2022.  It's been a while I didn't talk about dream since the last time about the prince charming who woke me up for Fajr prayer if you guys could recall. And this morning's dream is nothing less as happy as that one.  I dreamt that I woke up from everyday sleep like always but there were lots of people waiting around the bed. It was like around 30 people I don't really recognize but they somehow knew me in that dream. First when I got my eyelids opened they were all cheering and talking to each other " Raihana is awake, Raihana is awake " as if I slept for a quite long time and I was like, " oh yes, I am ". I looked at those faces and I really, didn't know who they are, however their expressions and behaviors subtly indicating that I was in a comma. Like always, I usually drink some water after my sleep - So I rose from that bed and tried to walk to the kitchen. The kitchen was filled with natural lighting, as warm-yellowish as h...

Hi, it's Nervousness here, welcome back!

Stomach pain, sudden cold and sweaty palms - This is the condition whenever Raihana feels so nervous. Sue just texted a reminder of tonight's meet up regarding our course event: Archi Raya which will be held on next two weeks and guess what, I'm chosen to be the emcee!  I was delighted at first and I am still now, because it's going to be lifetime experience in university but somehow I feel so nervous and anxious at the same time that I'll be talking in front of ALL YEARS of students who take Architecture; Zafwah, Xander, Pasak - you name it!, ALL LECTURERS and the department staffs. Yep, this feeling will fade by right after I get my confidence back but as for now, this is what we're getting.  I've thought on some activities we could do at front to entertain the audience like do a sudden kuih raya taste test on random student and if he/she guesses right, will be rewarded some duit raya! Apart from that, exposing the culture of Hari Raya like showing some Raya v...

biggest mistake.

 23rd August.  I have no idea what's the silver lining -  definitely the shittiest thing that ever happened to me after my ex-crush likes somebody else. maybe, I got to write this entry and journal the worst episode of me, overthinking about how lovely it would be if it was him and me.   I'm currently at the beginning of my final weeks and suddenly today, my laptop decided to leave me for Hawaii. I met some of the university computer technicians and they legit don't want to take risk since my laptop is the newest among newest. like excuse me, I paid that for rm 5k with my OWN money as 10 years-road-to-advanced-architect investment. I picked from one of the famous brand of all  and only got to use it for 5 months?? are u kidding me like on my final week???? now my friends are rushing with their final submissions and I bet they're gonna finish it by the week, while me, waiting for my spare parts from Dell within 3 weeks since the laptop is made in Saudi - lik...

Nice talk 👀

Don't lose your hope. U just have to work a lil more hard on it. and if it doesn't work, remember this :         *   " how to know that u've reach the WRONG DOOR ? " - because it doesn't OPEN. * ~Yasmin Mogahed  u maybe sometimes win, but to win, u have to learn. ☺ one of my favorite quotes, he said that " to success is u have to fall first " and it's really true. without that downs the ups would mean nothing. ❤   just do your BEST and bestest and let Allah do the rest. " U may never have this day again, so make it COUNT ! "      " yesterday is history, tomorrow is mystery. but TODAY is a GIFT. "             ^" enjoy your life today. Yesterday is GONE and tomorrow MAY never Come. "  good luck. ♡ -raihana shamsul, 14. 15 nov 2016, 9.16 pm.
