Review: 3M NexCare Acne Patch

Although this product has been in the market for quite a while, it's not until recently that I decided to try it out.

I'm usually the kind that has dry skin but on the rare occasion get a zit or 2. But as I grow older, I seem to be getting more and more mini zits on my face *x.x* boohoo~

I went ahead to get the 3M NexCare Acne Patch from Watson's at a one-for-one Promo a while ago.

It claims to act like a sponge to absorb oily secretion, fluid or pus. And act as a barrier so that your dirty, itchy fingers wouldn't contaminate the acne further

I had a portion of 3 pimples that I had been trying days to squeezeeeeeeeeeeee out.But of course nothing really works. It is worst that it is at the temple region, where you use your hands to touch your hair and your hair falls onto your face etc~

So I have been trying it out for 3 days and I noticed a hell lot of difference in healing of wound and bumpiness of the acne region.

*The pictures you are going to see might make you nausea/ vomit. You have been warned*

On Day 1 of trying the Acne patch, you can see that the pus from my 3 set pimples were sucked out onto the patch.  The patch was pretty bumpy on the underside and I have to admit I was so wowed by this product, I stared at the patch for a good few minutes =P

And on Day 2 and Day 3, a significant reduction in pus could be seen. And the number of acne patches I needed to use also reduced by the day due to the improvement of my skin condition as well.

I'm definitely a 3M acne patch follower! Hope you will be too!

Home Renovation

It's been a long time since I updated my blog as I was busy with my home renovation. 

We got our BTO 4-room flat few months back but were on a very tight budget to work with since I just finished my PT studies and my hubby just started his PT studies as well. Recently, we worked our finances and decided to get going with the renovations after so many months.

We had a chance encounter with the contractor a few months back when we were "checking out the defects" of our flat. The contractor was from Coos design and concepts and he approached us when we were opening our letterbox. 

We, on the other hand were looking for a contractor since some of the IDs that we have viewed were either too costly (~S$40K) or the quality was not up to our standard. Having shifted 6-7 times in a quarter-century, my uncle was always the one that did my home renovations but.... he was no longer in the business anymore.

The concept for my home is that I wanted to come home with a bright and colourful home aka POP. 

Colours usually brighten my mood~

So starting with the home tour:
