All About Life Without Maids

[janet88]

With a maid, one has to close both eyes because it is a heartache to see how they waste water, Jif, food etc etc :mad: . Without a maid, we have to 'bao ga liao'...backache doing housework but save a large sum of money.


I am lazy to go for facials but when I do have one, it is so relaxing.
Just lie down and don't think or have a care for anything.

I also do not use any makeup. I just make sure I dress in nice clothes (loves dresses and skirts) and match with appropriate footwear and accessorize. Makeup is seriously too troublesome for me. I have allergic skin so always must keep my face clean.

I dun wear accessories too.. I find too heavy for my neck or wrist... Heh... But yes I love dresses... But office was too cold.. Thus prefer pants..

Yup, I don't use accessories much too. Just necklace (perpetually on the neck, never removed except for cleaning), earrings, ring and watch.

I like Korean masks which can be left on the face like laneige water pack. Face shop raspberry sleeping pack also very good.

If have time, I usually will put on a mask before putting on makeup. I find that after a mask, the face stays less oily for longer period.

I love the water bank mask from laneige. Good for busy mummies that are short of time. Usually after applying the mask on my face, I can fall asleep as compared to those sheet mask whereby u need to remove it. Because if u put on for too long, there could be counter effect instead ( dehydrate instead).

Laneige counter do offer samples. Maybe I should try face shop ones after I finish my laneige one

I love the water bank too, just leave it on and go to bed, it is very hydrating. but sometimes I am too tired to apply. Seriously, now without a maid, I think I look more shagged than before. I sleep at 11pm, wake up at 6am. By right, should have enough sleep is it... :roll:

[MintyMin]

Is there a difference between the water bank n water pack?

[janet88]

Without a maid, have to take care of ourselves more.

Eg, the face…basic cleansing milk, toner, sunblock, eye gel.
The hair is crowning glory…so have to look presentable.
Lipstick also a must to look fresh.
I wear necklace and ring. Just bought a toner from laneige.
