Kebaikan Lavender

Ramai yang sukakan lavender kan? Lavender merupakan herba yang terkenal dan digunakan dalam pelbagai barangan harian. Lavender mengandungi minyak yang mampu menenangkan dan membantu otot-otot untuk relaks. Lavender juga mempunyai kesan antibakteria dan antifungal.

Lavender digunakan secara meluas kerana ia mempunyai banyak kebaikan semulajadi. Antaranya adalah untuk merawat rambut gugur dan juga membantu mengurangkan period pain. Selain itu, ia juga membantu untuk mengurangkan masalah anxiety dan depression. Lavender juga dikatakan membantu untuk mendapatkan rehat dan tidur yang berkualiti!

Lavender sangat popular digunakan sebagai pewangi dalam barangan harian. Syampu, sabun, pencuci lantai, pewangi kenderaan, dan macam-macam lagilah! Memang ramai yang sukakan bunga yang berwarna ungu ini kerana baunya yang wangi dan menenenangkan. Tetapi, adakah anda pasti aroma lavender yang digunakan dalam barangan harian anda datangnya daripada lavender sebenar? Sebab kebanyakan barangan harian menggunakan pewangi kimia kerana aromanya lebih kuat dan lebih tahan lama.

Sabun Syairah's Homemade merupakan sabun semulajadi yang kaya dengan gliserin dan tidak ditambah dengan bahan pengawet atau bahan kimia berbahaya.

Kenapa guna sabun homemade???

Zaman sekarang ni, orang ramai dah mula beralih kepada sabun homemade. Sebabnya, ramai yang dah mula tahu sebenarnya sabun yang berada di pasaran bukanlah sabun yang sebenar. Sabun yand berada di pasaran telah ditambah dengan detergen sintetik, bahan kimia, dan penambah buih sintetik. Bahan-bahan tersebut sebenarnya merengsa dan mengeringkan kulit.

Sebaliknya, sabun homemade diperbuat dengan minyak sayuran semulajadi dan kaya dengan pelembap semulajadi, iaitu gliserin. Sabun homemade juga tidak mempunyai bahan kimia tambahan.
Jadi, sebab itulah saya memilih untuk menggunakan sabun homemade! Syairah's Homemade Soap diperkayakan dengan essential oil.

Jadi kini giliran anda pula untuk bertukar!

Syairah's Homemade Soap

Homemade essential oil soap!

I started making soap with essential oils. Essential oils smell nice and there are the benefits of the particular essential oil. I love homemade soap as it provides me with the benefit of essential oil and doesn't dry my skin like the store-bought soap. I've been selling my soaps to my friends and they are my repeat customers.

Most people would be asking the difference in using commercialized soap and homemade soap. Store-bought soap tends to dry and irritate skin as it has an abundant of chemicals and detergents. Meanwhile homemade soap is very well tolerated by sensitive and problem-prone skin. The reason is simple as homemade soap consists of base oils, butters, lye, and additives that are usually from a natural source. Almost any natural additive can be added to homemade soap to treat various skin conditions and complaints while reducing unnecessary chemical intake, resulting in beautiful skin.

True soap is very basic. It consists of oils, lye, and water. Glycerine is the primary component in real soap that traps moisture. Glycerin is created during the process of making handmade soap, also called saponification. Most commercial manufacturers eliminate glycerine so as to use it in skin creams and lotions. Other chemicals are then added to replace the removed glycerin. What we end up buying is a bar of chemicals that irritate and disrupt the skin's natural balance.

Natural homemade soap is not bubbly like the commercial soap. It is creamy and lathery as it cleans your body while retaining your skin moist. Glycerin, a natural humectant that occurs naturally during the saponification process is retained in the finished product. It helps retain moisture in the skin. There are lots of glycerin in handmade soap which makes them naturally hydrating.

Homemade soap is also a lovely choice for gifting as they can also be beautiful. If you are interested, please visit my shopee store at https://shopee.com.my/syairahsyassakii

My new discovery of Plant Therapy essential oil

There are two problems that I always encounter on a daily basis. One is rhinitis where I get runny nose and stuffy nose in cold weather or air-conditioned area. Another one is difficulty with falling asleep.

I used to have Vicks vapor rub with me to help with nasal congestion. I've been using it for a long time and it feels like it's not working for me anymore. On top of that, it was costly and there are some controversies regarding petroleum jelly usage. So I've been looking for alternatives.

I always have trouble with falling asleep. Lots of tossing and turning before I actually fall asleep, and sometimes that took me around 30minutes to 1 hour. I tried many things to help reducing the time for me to fall asleep.

I've been seeing people promoting essential oil, but I have never approached them. Then I met a friend who uses essential oil and she kindly addressed my questions regarding essential oil before she asked me to do my own research.

Essential oils are expensive, and in Malaysia people are prone to MLM companies like Doterra and Young Living. With the help of internet, I found a non-MLM company named Plant Therapy. It was cheaper and the customer service is great! They also provide free shipping with a purchase of more than $50. It took 3-4 weeks for the package to arrive, but I wouldn't mind since I'm not paying for the shipping fee.

I've been using essential oil for months and I think it works for both problems. My favourite is Respir Aid synergy for my rhinitis and a blend of Vetiver, Cedarwood and Ho Wood for sleep. I also use Rosemary in my shampoo to help with hair growth. I make my own facial serum with Neroli, Blue Tansy, Frankincense Frereana and Geranium.

Taking an extended step, I am currently making my own bath soap with essential oils as fragrance. The essential oil works as natural fragrance and provides essential oil benefits. Lavender soap is good for relaxing and calming bath. Lavandin and Elemi is good for skin issues. I sell my soaps to my friends and they are repeating customers.

So far, I'm enjoying my journey with Plant Therapy essential oil as the price is more affordable as compared to MLM companies.

Spring Adventure 2015 - part 4

Salam
This is a bit late though...but better late than nothing right?! Hehe

Sayonara to our lodging in Shinjuku

Our next destination is Kawaguchiko, one of the Fuji 5 Lakes. Fuji 5 Lakes are famous spots for viewing Mount Fuji as they are located at the foot of Mount Fuji. April is off season for climbing Mount Fuji, and the official climbing season runs from July to August. My sister and I planned to hunt for views from the foothills around the Lake Kawaguchi. At this time of year, the view of snow-capped Mount Fuji and sakura is astounding.

Snow capped Mt Fuji

We bought bus ticket for Fujikawaguchiko which departs at 2pm. So we said hello to Tokyo Tower before getting on our bus. We kept our luggages in the lockers available at the train station before heading towards the Tokyo's landmark.

The bus ride was quite okay actually. We kinda enjoy the sceneries from the bus window

More cherry blossom

Everybody on the bus was euphoric upon seeing this

The Fujikawaguchiko station; small yet cozy

 As we arrived to the bus station, we were picked up by the van sent from our lodging 

Lake Villa

Mount Fuji can be seen from the window

The driver helped with our luggages

It was a 2-storey house, fit for a group of 6-8 people I would say

3 beds 

5 futons

First thing on the list was photography session with Fuji-san. We went to Kachi Kachi ropeway for a view from a higher ground. We never thought that was the only chance we had, good thing we didn't laze around in the lodging that afternoon.

Say cheese

If you ring the bell with your beloved...(you can guess what comes after, no?)

We were lucky to have met this sunset view

It's time to go back downhill
