♥ DIY homemake green tea mask, toner and facial scrub ♥
ingredients that are needed: apple cider vinegar, green tea (can be obtained from real green tea leaves or green tea packet but not the ready-to-drink canned green tea), white sugar/salt, honey, olive oil, two empty glass bottles
making the green tea mask
1. add 1 teaspoon of apple cider vinegar into the bowl
2. add 2 teaspoons of green tea
(you can use the green tea packet to prepare the green tea, must sure it is lukewarm)
3. add 3 teaspoons of white sugar
4. stir the mixture to blend it completely
5. add 1 teaspoon of honey
6. add 2 more teaspoons of white sugar.
7. stir the mixture carefully again and it is ready to be use (leave it for about 10 minutes on the face and wash it off with cold water)
-you can keep up to 2 weeks within the glass bottle in the fridge
(use sugar if you have a dry skin, but replace it with salt if you have oily skin)
making the green tea toner
1. prepare an empty glass bottle
2. add in apple cider vinegar of about 1/3 of the bottle
(use lesser portion if you have sensitive skin)
3. add in green tea (prepared earlier for the mask) into the bottle for the remaining 2/3
4. add in 1 teaspoon of olive oil (you can substitute it with tea tree oil)
5. shake the mixture and it is ready to be use
-you can keep up to 2 weeks in the fridge
-use it at night as it smells bad, however I find it smells like SK-II (I used to call that smell as horse urine)
making the green tea facial scrub
1. add in 3 teaspoons of white sugar
2. add in 1 teaspoon of green tea
3. add in another ingredient of your choice (could be honey, Johnson's baby oil, olive oil,etc)
4. stir the mixture and leave it for about 2 minutes and it is ready to be use
- it has about 1 week of shelf life but personally, I would recommend use it once.
tried it,like it and love it ♥
cheers!

when you are single for too long....
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会懒得恋爱
you will feel 'lazy' to be in a relationship again
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
朋友会越重要
friends are becoming more and more important
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会越来越喜欢听歌
listening to songs will become a major hobby to you
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
电话会常常忘记带
you will often forget to bring your cellphone along with you
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
就会养成一个怪癖
it will develop into a weird habit
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
对爱情会越来越挑剔
you will become more picky/choosy when it comes to love
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
除了寂寞点外
besides feeling lonely sometimes
还是蛮开心的
actually,it is kinda happy too
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会慢慢变得成熟起来
you will slowly start to get mature
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会比以前更爱父母
you will love your parents even more that last time
更重视亲情
and cherish your relationship with your family members
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
对所有的节日大多没什么期待
you don't really bother much about those special days of the year
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
看到别人一对对的很甜蜜
seeing others who are in a sweet relationship with their lover
心里多少还是会有些介意
somehow,your heart feels disturbed
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会喜欢买很多鞋子
you will start to loving buying more shoes
带自己去很多很远的地方
so that they can bring you to faraway places
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会觉得无拘无束自由自在
you will have so much freedom
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
爱情会变得越来越不重要
love is becoming less important
取而代之的是钱和事业
and being replaced by money and career
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会越来越理性
you will become more rational
越来越现实
and down-to-earth
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
是很幸福的时光
it is actually a blissful moment
虽然有一点点无聊和寂寞
although you will face some emptiness and loneliness
但是游走在自己的街道上
but walking on your own street
什么都可以无所谓
everything is no longer a matter to you
没有任何束缚
and there is nothing to control you
即使很多人都在疑惑
often many people will question
"你为什么没有告别一个人的时光?"
'why don't you kiss the single life goodbye?'
因为……
because.......
一个人单身久了
when you are single for too long
会上瘾的
you will get addicted
*chinese version is not written by me*
cheers to those who are still single!

the acne breakouts @ relationship breakups theory
breaking up with your partner is almost similar to having a sudden acne attack
the night before, you wouldn't sense any changes on your face, or any changes in your relationship
guess what?
the next day,early in the morning after u woke up,look into the mirror and GASPED! what the hell! acne!!??
the same goes to the relationship. the night before he/she said 'i love u so much' and the next day 'i don't love you anymore'...pathetic? some people told me,this is called LIFE. what a life.
so what's next? the pimple on your face is so painful. the itchy fingers of yours, wanting to squeeze it all the time,but you can't. simply because it is so painful and your subconscious mind knows, the more u squeeze,the more painful it is and it might spread out to the other parts after it breaks.
so what's next? having the thought of the reality that he/she is leaving your world, the helpless mind of yours wanting him/her back so badly. but i heard some people said before too, the more you wanna to patch back,the more he/she wanna leave you. deep in you,you know,your act will drives him/her further n further away and end up having no contacts.
so,you are stuck in this helpless state.the acne on your face.the broken relationship you have.you cannot do a single thing to help it or prevent it from happening. you are just stuck.
everyone said time will wash everything away.time will heal the pain. both the breakouts n the breakups.
ya,i know too.time.time is all you need. after some time,the acne pain will recover and your broken heart will recover too.
leaving scars behind. what is the difference? huge difference. the scar on the face is not as deadly as the scar in the heart. sometimes the scars fade. sometimes the scars retain,but for most people,the scars retained to remind you,it is there...it still exists.
alright,scars really a living proof that a wound has recovered? not really, i should say.it might look fine on the surface, but underneath the scars, well, you might find it rotten flesh.
this is another comparison of love with something else.i hope i don't compare love with something gross,again,in the future.
cheers!
