What we should know about Breast Cancer?

October is the Breast Cancer Awareness Month. So I decide to talk about the breast, breast cancer, and the fact of breast cancer.

As we all know that all female and male in this world have breast. Breast is the tissue that overlying the chest muscles. The different between male and female's breast is in the female breast we have the tissue that specialized to produce the milk (glandular tissue) as well as fatty tissue while on the male is only fatty tissue. 

Now let's talk about the breast cancer. What is the breast cancer? Breast cancer is when the cell that not belong in your breast take over the area of "normal" cells that supposed to be growth and this bad cells establish themselves. 

The scary part is 1 in 8 women in USA will be diagnosed with Breast Cancer in her lifetime. Breast Cancer is the SECOND leading cause of cancer among women.  


Picture
Even though the Breast Cancer "rare" for male, but estimate 2.5K men will be diagnosed with breast cancer and approximately 400-460 will die each year. 
​So men, please don't hesitate to do your check up and mammogram also. 

Picture
So what cause the breast cancer? Well, nobody know exactly what cause the breast cancer. What we do know that breast cancer is always caused by damage to a cell's DNA. 

But don't worry, Ladies.... Caffeine, Deodorant, Microwaves, Cellphones, or even contact with somebody who has the cancer DO NOT cause Breast Cancer. 

This is all the symptoms of inflammatory Breast Cancer:
​(Please see your doctor if you have some of this symptoms)

I hope this post will help you to understand and more aware about the important to do the breast exam and mammogram. 
I also hope this post will help to answer some of your question about the breast cancer and also the symptoms.

BeautyCon LA 2018 (late post)


What's different at the BeautyCon LA 2018 for me other than I went with my new friend, Ann Chen? This year, BeautyCon have more Asian cosmetics than last year. It showed by there's the section that they call it "K-Town".

Me personally love cosmetic and like to try everything (really...) Even though by the end it won't look good to me as in the model but at lest I try it. So I bought some of it and spend some money at this convention. 
Different with Ann, she has really firm personality. If she doesn't like it, she won't buy it (I should learn more from her lol). 
But bot of us had a blast. We put the glitter on our hair, Bought (again) the glitters, the glue, the shadows, the sponge, and the brushes. 
Overall I love BeautyCon LA 2018 especially with their new type of ban to go in (they sent to your mailing address. And also the apps so you know what you will do or what plan from Friday to Sunday. 

I only regret that such beautiful convention have some bad attitude staffs. They should trained their staffs to be more friendly, don't judge people by their look, and at least got up from their seat when someone ask question if they couldn't hear it so there's no yelling and shouting. I am glad that the customer service that help me was nicer (definitely don't want ask help to the rude person lol).

So yeah... that was my experience.... I can't help to attend BeautyCon LA 2019.

Couple days ago I post about what is Micro needling. Yesterday I had the appointment to get micro needling myself. Since teenager I suffer with acne and acne scars. And I really want to get rid of it. 
When I read and study about the Microneedling, I decide to do it myself and I feel really happy. Only one day but I already see the improvement on my scar even thou my face still red. 

The nurse state that after the treatment, I might experience some pinpoint bleeding but it will be gone in 10 minutes. And the redness will be gone in 1-2 days. The peeling will occurs after few days. 

Another 3 days are the most CRITICAL !!
Have to avoid SUN! 
USE Sunscreen with the most SPF
Avoid use ALPHA-HYDROXY products (you may resume after)
No scratching or peeling
Limit exercise
Drink plenty water

So... That's my experience #1.... I will be back in 5 weeks for the #2. I hope after the #3 all my scars will be gone :)

Ciao...

The Mark that we will talk about in here is STRETCH MARK! I know lots of you ladies or gentlemen hate that. ME too!!!! Especially after being from fat to skinny to fat again. The stretch mark... ugh.. There's a lot of cream and miracle out there but if we can just make it from our own kitchen, WHY NOT? 

​Some of you know that I CAN'T COOK! But I can definitely make this. 
What we need?
  • 1 cup of cocoa butter
  • 4 tablesoon finely grated beeswax
  • 1 tablespoon Vitamin E oil
  • 40 drops lavender essential oil
​

Now let's do it!!
  1. Place the cocoa butter + beeswax to the medium saucepan over low meduim heat, warming it until the beeswax melting. 
  2. Remove it from the heat and stir it when you add vit.E oil + lavender oil in it. 
  3. Pour the mix into the jar, allow to cool off before you cover it up. (you can store it up to 1 year at the cool and dark place)

How to use it?


Use on the old stretch mark (use generous amount of butter) at least twice/day. You can also use it on the new stretch mark. 

There you go... You have it... Easy,right?
