Alive! Multi-vitamin Review

This year 2015, I was invited for two fitness challenges which is to trial Epson Pulsense watch and Alive! Women’s energy multi-vitamin.

So I am thrilled to trial Alive! multi-vitamin to give me the boost that I needed.

Aqua Optima Water Filter Review

I was brought up in Singapore and used to drink from the tap as we had soft water and so had less limescale. Since moving to the UK, I have always lived in hard water areas. As I found out, the hardness of your water is not just dependent on your supplier but also on your postcode. While experts say it is generally not harmful to your health, I believe it affects the taste of water and therefore any beverage made from it.

Since I came to UK, I have been using a water filter religiously for my family. I will use it for cooking, making drinks for children and all sorts. I think it is so much nicer to drink too. I’ve also not had to descale my kettle for years as it still remains clean.

Recently Aqua Optima got in touch to see if I would like to try them out. I thought why not. I have been using the same brand for over 10 years and this brand’s water filters are getting very expensive nowadays. It is about time to look for an alternative without compromising the quality of the water.

First Aid Kit for every household

I cannot stress enough how important it is to have a first aid kit in the home or even in the car! Working as a nurse for 10 years, I always must sure that the kits are well stocked and not expired. Accidents happen all the time and having a kit available is always handy than searching high and low for a clean plaster!

How to stave off the ageing process

My daily beauty routine is to wash my face in the morning and then apply a lot of face cream before getting my children ready for school. I like to keep it moisturised especially against the elements in this harsh cold weather. Also routinely after my daily shower, I will put on more face cream, have a weekly face mask, daily cleanser before I go to bed.

Review myvitamins Bundle

Keeping my family healthy is always my number one priority. I supplement our diets with vitamins and minerals. This time around, I picked an Active Kids Omega 3 for my children, Total Krill Oil for myself and Joint Plus MSM for Mr C. Each packet of myvitamins come in a zip lock that allows you seal the vitamins securely. They can be store neatly in your handbag but you must be careful with children as you won’t want them to think it is a pack of sweets.

Eye Journey: Mummy, I cant see it!

Parenting is never plain sailing nor like it says in the guidebooks. There are always ups and downs. It is always worrying when you child is not ‘normal’. Ms C has been diagnosed with myopia and astigmatism since she was two.  Since then, we have been to the Community Hospital every two to three months for a check-up. Each time Ms C will say she can’t see when the word is too small. We have been seen by the consultant, optician and orthoptist.

Anti-Snoring Ring Review

Have you ever wanted to give your other half a big slap or kick them off the bed because they snore so loud the bed shakes?  Well I do! I’ve suffered for ages listening to Mr C’s snoring, not helped that I’m a light sleeper! We have tried different type of pillows and nasal strips for him but we didn’t have much success with those.

So when I saw a fellow blogger review the anti-snoring ring, I thought why not give it a try! Mr C has tried it for a month now. In his case, it has not been an instant result but it works in the end! His snoring has become quieter each time he wears it and it took about three weeks before we started seeing the results. I no longer notice the snoring so no need to push him aside or to put a pillow on his head. I love how the ring works as there is no drug needed or any other side effects.
