I finally know what went wrong with my pictures... different template shows them differently.
On some the pics looks screwed.. on others they look fine..

Lesson learnt - always test it on a "test blog" first ;)
Be back with posts soon.. work is ramping up, I think its gonna suck the life outta me till mid April! Bof!

I got this tube from Beauty Buffet (MBK outlet) when I was in Bangkok last March. In all honesty I was attracted to the milk carton packaging hehehe (I don't actually need another scrub :P ).

Scentio Says:
Milk Plus enhances exfoliating process, promotes the growth of healthy new skin cells, while milk essence and herbal extracts helps to moisturize and nourish your skin leaving it radiant and soft to the touch.

Contains milk essence, herbal extract, trypsin protein and natural fruit BHA.
The natural BHA and trypsin unclogs the skin's pores, promote the growth of healthy new skin cells and help to prevent the formation of acne.

Texture: Clear white gel, with super tiny bead bubbles (you can't actually feel the beads)
Nett Wt: 100 ml
Scent: The moment I squeeze it out, smells like sweet vanilla + coconut. Quite strong but not overpowering.
Price: Less than THB200
Other: Not tested on animals.

Foxy Says:
I love this! Remember Ginvera Marvel Gel - the cult product back in like a decade ago?
Hmm this is Thailand's own Marvel Gel I say... :)
I find this very gentle, does not "scratch the skin". Not bothered with the scent, but those who don't like coconut smell won't really like this product.

I reckon this Whitening Scrub is supposed to be used on dry skin; just like Marvel Gel. But with BB Cream on I always cleanse my face first and then pat it dry before I proceed with this scrub.

It took a little longer to ball up into dry flakes. Washes off pretty easily.
Skin feels smoother and brighter after each use. - Double check
Does it help to prevent acne? - This I don't think so.. I still have the occasional stubborn tiny spots..
Nevertheless, I think this is great and will repurchase.

Oh, a note to this. I really think it works best with completely dry skin.
I just used this tonight - feeling rather lazy after gym so I didn't really pat it dry. Was kinda damp when I smooth this gel on - It didn't work. It became creamy.. like cream cleanser. And feels sticky on my fingers.
So if you do get this, dry ya skin first ;)

I have been using Maxis Broadband for about 2 months +, close to 3 now.
So far I don’t find it better than Streamyx, but not much of a complain since I need to work from hometown from time to time. Instead of applying another phone line for Streamyx, why not give wireless a try eh?


Big mistake.


I tried to login last night but once connected I couldn’t browse ANY website at all. All I got were Maxis pages, telling me the page I want is not available and I should contact Maxis. Another said I have exceeded my usage and should consider upgrading my subscription.


When I signed up, I clearly asked what would happen if I exceeded the usage limit. I was told that the speed would slow down a lot, can’t really download stuffs, BUT I could still SURF! That was why I ended up signing a year’s subscription.


I called the Toll Free number. DOES NOT WORK.
I think I called at least a dozen time – lines are always busy.
“Pls try again later”.
WTH? – You call this a “call-centre” ?


When I finally got to talk to a rep, I was told that Maxis had a policy change effective yesterday – 4th Jan 2010. Where once a user exceeded the usage limit, you no longer has access to the internet till your next billing date. Was there a communication in the form of SMS / Email / Mail to inform this?
– NO, NONE, NADA.


Am I happy with this? – HECK NO.


So I now have 3 options:
1- Terminate my subscription and pay the penalty fees of RM200
2- Upgrade my subscription – pay more.
3- Wait till my next billing date to resume usage; and be contented.


I don’t like any of the above options. Maxis is not giving me a solution. I asked for his manager’s contact, and was put on hold for about 10-15 mins. Oh so you need that much time to get your “manager” on the line. And “the manager” can’t do nuts about it. Kept asking us to upgrade.


I then asked for his next level manager. He doesn’t know who!?
Can you believe this? A manager level employee doesn’t know who his superior is?

The Idiotic company sure hires a lot of Idiots. Was getting really mad so an ultimatum given to him –
“I give you 5 mins – come back with a name for me!” and yes, he did gave me a name within 5 mins.


Donkeys…!


As a customer, I am not happy being made to pay more just because you idiotic company change your policy. The contract I signed did not mention anything on usage suspension. Does that mean today if I sign a bank loan with interest rate of 5%; the next month you come back telling me – “Oh we had a policy change, rate is up to 10% now”. And I swallow this with a smile??

I am still waiting for another manager to call. Up till now – NADA.




Until this matter is solved; I will have no access to the Internet, except from the office. BOO!

I will have no access to external emails as these aren’t allowed at work.
I’ll have more posts soon, I hope.


Now I understand why so many hate Maxis.
I couldn’t agree more.
