M.A.C FIX +

Recently, M.A.C Cosmetics was giving up free gifts to members and I went to redeem mine too!

M.A.C FIX+

An aqua-sprtiz of vitamin and minerals, infused with a calm-the-skin blend of Green Tea, Camomile, Cucumber, topped off with the fresh, natural, energizing scent of Sugi. Adds radiance, finishes make-up. Spray it on. Skin drinks it up!

M.A.C Fix+ has a very refreshing smell that relaxes me tremendously. I personally LOVE the scent very much!

Even though, it was being positioned as a Skin Refreshner and Finishing Mist, but I find that M.A.C Fix+ is a very versatile product.

I started up by just spraying the product on my before I had start my make-up session. Instantly, my skin has cooled down! This is particularly important, as it helps to close up my pores before make-up.

If I am going out for the whole day, I would spray some after my make-up. It does helps to make my make-up more lasting. It acts like a seal on your make-up, and also gives a more dewy feel.

Not only that, the vitamin and minerals in the liquid has moisturising effect on my skin! When the weather is getting really hot, I will spray some onto my face and gently pad ont it. After a while, I still felt freshness on my skin and was even more moisturise.

When I browse through the internet about this product, I realised that some people have it on their hair. So I also tried it once on my hair, somehow I don't get the effect as those who had on the internet. But well, no harm trying it!

The design of the botte is very intelligent and convenient! Just by turning the top, the nozzle is able to squirt out the product. And by turning the top back, it is locked and free from worries that the product will spill out!

Overall, I would recommend to get M.A.C Fix+, especially with Singapore's hot and humid weather. It definitely help the skin and secure our make-up!

How Much Calories Can I Consume A Day?

I am NEVER a fan of "NOT EATING" methodology for dieting! This way can only help to cut very minimum fats, but kills you in the long run!

Recently, I had came across an article which states, "Eating lesser is referring to CALORIES, and not food!"

You can be eating one meal a day, and that meal can consists only 3 tablespoon of rice and minimum amount of veggies. But a cup of PEARL MILK TEA would be good enough to destroy all effort.

Please, gals! Its not CUT WHAT YOU EAT, but WATCH WHAT YOU EAT!

So how much Calories should I consume a day so that my weight can be decreased?

First, we need to calculate our BASIC METABOLISM RATE (formulae as below)

655 + (9.6 x Weight in kg) + (1.7 x Height in cm) -(4.7 x Age)

Basic Metabolism Rate (BMR) refers to the maximum amount of calories being burnt purely based on the activity of our organs, for example, breathing, heart beat and etc. In laymen terms, if your BMR is 1,400 calories, by doing nothing that day, you are still able to burn 1,400 calories.

So as long as you consume 300 to 500 calories lesser daily, you will definitely be able to reduce your weight accordingly!

Hopefully everyone will cut down in calories, and not food!

About Project ALLURE

What is Project ALLURE all about?

I have spent a major part of my life finding and discovering the best product for my skin, the best method to keep slim, and the best way to prevent wrinkles. All these are about being beautiful and young forever!
