This is why I chose Cetaphil Baby Moisturizing Bath & Wash | REVIEW

Here’s a little review on Cetaphil Baby Moisturizing Bath & Wash from a mummy with a boy who has sensitive skin.

Looking for the right baby wash can be a little overwhelming especially when you’re a new parent. With all the dos and don’ts and what’s good and what’s not, I can imagine what you’re going through- in fact, I know exactly how you feel because I too went through it all.

By now you probably already know that babies and toddlers have much more sensitive skin compared to an adult’s, and that is why picking the right baby bath and wash is so important. I used to think that any bath or shampoo that are ‘made for babies ‘ is good enough- that’s until I found out that my firstborn Eidrix had eczema (yup, had– he eventually grew out of it, alhamdullilah).

Ever since then, I was a bit pickier and cautious when it came to choosing the right baby bath or shampoos. Some of the things that I look out for are:
• Is it paraben-free? –More info on why we should be cautious with paraben here.
• Is it soap-free? – Soap can be drying for the skin
• Is it hypoallergenic?- which means it is unlikely to cause an allergic reaction
• Is the fragrance overpowering?

So recently I came across Cetaphil Baby Moisturizing Bath & Wash, which fits the bill for what I’m looking for. As a working mama I need a baby wash that is fuss-free, which means that it has to clean well yet gentle on the skin.

There are a few reasons why I really like the Cetaphil Baby Moisturizing Bath & Wash, so let me expand on them below.

  1. Besides being paraben- free, soap-free and hypoallergenic, the Cetaphil Baby Moisturizing Bath & Wash also is 1/3 lotion with aloe vera and almond oil, which are 2 ingredients that are beneficial to keep the skin moisturized, soft and smooth.
  2. It is also a product that is recommended by paediatricians – According to Cetaphil’s Website, a total of 200 dermatologist and paediatricians in Germany surveyed online in 2015 for this. That’s a relief!
  3. It lathers up just nicely- I personally do not like the ones that don’t lather up. But I also do not like ones that lather up too much, so this one is just nice- We can still have that bubble bath effect if we want to.
  4. I love the smell!– The best part is the scent sticks on even after bath, which kinda makes me want to hug and kiss my kids all the time… haha! But most importantly, it’s not overpowering!

DID YOU KNOW?
10/10 mums agree that Cetaphil Baby Moisturising Bath & Wash gently cleanses and moisturises baby’s delicate skin*.

I also like the packaging because it’s easy to grip and easy to bring along on our travels too. Imagine if it’s a pump-out type… susah right? There’s a risk of it leaking if you don’t pack it in properly.

In terms of the amount of liquid used for one bath, I just use a coin size amount every time and it does the job!

Besides that, the formulation is made tear-free, which means it won’t sting if it accidentally gets into your baby’s eyes.

Overall, the Cetaphil Baby Moisturizing Bath & Wash is so far the best body bath and wash for us because it meets all the requirements that a working mummy like me need, plus it’s gentle on my boy’s skin and moisturizing too!

Ohh ya, I forgot to mention that I found that I don’t even need to put on any oil or lotion after his bath anymore!- save me time and money! hehehe

Baby Shopping List- What’s Necessary and What’s Not – For First-Time Parents

list of baby things to buy malaysia

It’s 2019 and all of a sudden so many of my ex-classmates are having babies! In fact, we even have a mummy WhatsApp group to share our questions and stories. And because I’m the most senior one there- the only one to have 2 kids at the moment- all my first-time-mummy friends are asking ME for a list of items to buy for their baby and advice on what’s not necessary.

So, instead of having to type out and re-think every single time someone asks me this question, I thought why not come up with this baby shopping list- so I can share with them what i think is necessary and what’s not.

So here’s a baby shopping list which I personally think are necessities, and which I think are not necessary when you are shopping for your first baby.

 

The Big Bulky Items

Necessary:

  • Crib or co-sleeper
  • Crib mattress
  • Car seat (For extra savings, pick one that fits newborn till at least 18 kg)
  • Stroller (Pick one that is newborn friendly and can use till at least 3 years old)
  • High chair / Booster seat (not an issue till 4- 6 months onwards)
  • Cupboard / Dresser  – For baby’s clothes
  • Changing table – Because changing on bed/ floor hurts my back

Not Necessary:

  • Bassinet (You’ll only use it till 3 months, so don’t waste your money!)
  • Rocking chair (Although nice to have especially when you’re nursing baby)

Malaysia’s First Watch Lounge Concept Store

Few weeks ago, I was invited to the launch of Sevenfriday Space, Malaysia’s very first watch lounge concept store located in Robinsons Kuala Lumpur, Four Seasons Place.

Basically, Sevenfriday Space is an extension of the Swiss lifestyle brand Sevenfriday founded in 2012 by Daniel Niederer. For over seven years, the brand has been growing and making waves in the watchmaking industry through their “affordable luxury” timepieces that appeal to individuals who live to challenge the norm.

“As a lifestyle brand, Sevenfriday initially started off designing, manufacturing and selling
industrial inspired watches before deciding to increase our range with other products so that
customers can easily get other accessories and apparels to complement their Sevenfriday
watches. It is essentially an effort to offer lifestyle, in the deepest sense of the word, to our
customers and letting them express themselves,” said Daniel Niederer, Founder and CEO of
Sevenfriday.

#FavFashFind: Floral Midi A-line Dress

online shopping tea length dress

A few months ago, i asked you to help me pick a tea length dress for me to purchase from Dress Lily. There were so many feedback and it was a close call but the winning dress prevailed and it is this gorgeous Floral Midi A-line Dress.

I know it was a few months ago, but i didn’t have the perfect occasion to wear it till the day i went for my husband’s Public Mutual 2018 Sales Kick off event in One World Hotel. The theme was Retro Style outfit and i guess this dress kinda suited the bill. Continue reading

Tea Length Dresses From Dress Lily- Help Me Choose!

tea length dress lily decide choose pick

Anyone else having trouble finding tea length dresses (nice ones!) here in Malaysia? I know i am… To be honest, there’s not many nice ones available in stores and if there are, it’ll probably cost you a bomb! So i’ve been doing some research and i came across a website called Dress Lily. Firstly there’s the word ‘dress’ there and secondly it has my name, so of course i was bound to look through the site.. And YES! They do have some great choices for tea length dresses plus they ship to Malaysia too!

Here are some of my favourites:


Floral Midi A-Line Dress

This is my absolute favourite, why? It ticks all of my boxes;

  1. It’s a V-neck – V necks in general are flattering for plus size women, it elongates the neck makes you look slimmer.
  2. 3/4 length sleeves-  I don’t like long sleeves that that all the way to your wrist and i’m not really a fan of short sleeves, so this is just perfect!
  3. It’s an A-line dress – A-line dresses is one of the most flattering cuts for any shape or size. It works well for wider hips or adds a shape for someone like me who has quite a straight figure.
  4. Black based, but not boring– i’m not sure if you’ve notice but a lot of my clothes are black based with a pop of colour. That’s just me i guess.
  5. It comes with a belt– Great for accentuating your waist line and adds a pretty detail to the dress.
