Start your story with Trollbeads

credit: https://www.facebook.com/TrollbeadsMY/

Have you ever heard about Trollbeads before? Trollbeads is a  jewellery line (just like Pandora and Thomas Sabo.. but much more "senior" than those two) which was established in the year 1976 in Copenhagen, Denmark.  It was sparked by Soren 'Silversmith' Nielsen when he created the first Trollbeads, which portrays faces and figures. The name 'Trollbeads itself refers to the faces or figures that Soren Nielsen has crafted upon.  Later on his craftsmanship is inspired by mythology, trolls, stories, flora fauna and cultural diversity. Afterwards Soren's sister, Lise Aagaard jumped in to the line and have put together the beads with silver bracelets which initially was beads with leather cord necklace. She became the founder of Trollbeads, and went on to open a jewellery shop. Then, Trollbeads was created in collaboration with the customers when the customers developed the concept of putting several beads on the bracelets.
first bead made by Soren. Looks a little bit scary wasn't it lol

This jewellery line crafts authentic and aesthetic jewelleries ranging from the beads or charms itself, bracelets, necklace, rings and earrings. Quoted from its official website, "Every story has a bead" implies that each beads has its own representation of memories and even personality. Furthermore, Trollbeads let their customers to build on their own story by adding the beads the way they wanted. It is the customers fascination on collecting beads, bracelets and so forth that keeps on fuelling Trollbeads's enthusiasm in jewel making. 
As I was sooooo curious to know, I had made some research on the differences between Trollbeads, Pandora and Thomas Sabo. So, here's what i get: 


Pandora beads fit in Trollbeads chains but not the other way round. Some Trollbeads does fit in Pandora's chain. There's a collection named as Universal Uniques which are designed with large opening so it fits major number of brands such as Pandora and Chamilia.


Trollbeads comes along with the original concept which seems much more traditional and rustic compared to Pandora and Thomas Sabo as they seems to be more towards a modernized approach. Pandora and Thomas Sabo designs are nice and attractive but Trollbeads is a masterpiece, the design looks more handcrafted compared to the others. 

Trollbeads offers different kind of bracelets, necklace, rings, earrings, tiaras, sterling silvers, jewelry and others too.(You can check them out herePandora known for its charms bracelet and Thomas Sabo for its sterling silver and charms. 

Want to start your own story?


You can start by choosing your bracelets or bangle. Next step should be the beads and the lock or spacer. As you can see, I have been eyeing on this fairy tale section. Urgh!

 
 The designs are superb and very captivating !

Current collections; Valentine's. According to Trollbeads, The Rose Spacer is designed by Anders Martin Bruun. Anders is a designer who has made multiple designs for Trollbeads, but this is actually his first bead with flowers.
Spring Collections. You can watch this short video featuring the beads, rings and necklace from this enchanted forest collection, a new collection for the year 2018. I like the necklace to be honest!


Trollbeads have been in the market for  a very long time. 
Today, Trollbeads can be found both online and offline over 400 countries worldwide.  


 For Malaysians, if you prefer to find them offline :

Trollbeads Mid Valley Megamall
75 Lingkaran Syed Putra
Kuala Lumpur

Trollbeads Sunway Pyramid
Jalan PJS 11/15
47500 Petaling Jaya 

Trollbeads Vivacity

Assalammualaikum.


Mellya sejak kecil lagi kulit memang sangat sensitif. Kena habuk, gigitan serangga sikit je pun mesti akan jadi gatal-gatal and merah-merah satu badan. Time jadi tu mulalah kelam-kabut cari ubat sapu. Dulu kalau jadi macam tu kalut, rushing gi klinik. Sekarang tak payah dah sebab dah ada lotion daripada Ranessa ni. hehe

 Drop of Lush Multi-purpose Lotion dihasilkan di Australia ini bukan setakat meredakan kulit sensitif tapi juga sangat sesuai untuk pelbagai masalah kulit yang lain seperti ruam, eczema, radang kulit dan lain-lain.

Menabung Dengan Money Saving Checklist



Assalammualaikum.


Tahun ni Mellya dah berumur 25 tahun. Macam tak percaya je dah tua. haha rasa macam sama je, tak da perubahan tapi dari segi muka maybe lah makin kedut ehhh hehehe So dalam banyak-banyak azam tahun baru Mellya, satu ni memang ongoing punya must do. Apa dia? Simpan duit. Sebelum ni Mellya ada share Cara Untuk Menabung Yang Sangat Efektif Bagi yang belum baca, silakan. hehe entry kalini tercetus lepas tengok entry Mai pasal planner yang viral tu. Bahagian yang paling menarik minat Mellya ialah bahagian "Saving Challenge". 

Money Saving Checklist


Apa sebenarnya dimaksudkan dengan money saving checklist ni? Actually ianya satu jadual atau lebih kita kenal sebagai checklist untuk ditanda, setiap kali kita menyimpan duit kita tick lah satu persatu. Hehe menarik kan?  

Kelebihan 'Money Saving Checklist'
- Boleh set target yang dikehendaki 
- Bina disiplin diri
- Simpan duit lebih teratur
- Capai target on time

Senang je nak buat checklist ni. Jom tengok cara-cara buat 'Money Saving Checklist'

Set target total akhir yang korang inginkan. For example, Mellya nak simpan RM 2600 dalam masa 52 minggu atau 365 hari. Untuk secara mingguan, setiap minggu Mellya kena simpan RM 50. Kalau secara harian, setiap hari Mellya kena simpan RM 7.20.

Draft kan jadual anda. Benda penting yang wajib ada dalam checklist bagi memudahkan rujukan korang ialah calendar 2018, column minggu/hari, tarikh deposit, total, balance, column tick. Nak buat cantik-cantik boleh design sendiri, kalau malas download je dari Uncle Google mesti banyak ada hehe

So bawah ni ada contoh calendar and checklist Mellya. Mellya buat size A5 je. Kecik comel senang nak paste dalam buku. hehe Kalau korang nak letak atas meja or paste dekat board, buatla besar sikit. Bagi nampak clear hahah


Calendar untuk rujukan.

365 hari untuk RM 2600
52 minggu untuk RM 2600

Simple kan? hehe Korang boleh lah buat macam ni jugak. Calendar Mellya buat guna Photoshop, Checklist Mellya guna Words je. Mulanya nak letak background kaler-maler tapi nak print tu sayang pulak ink hahaha so end up tukar jadi putih je. Kalau korang nak boleh drop email untuk Mellya share. Malas nak upload google drive haha

So tahun baru ni jom la sama-sama menyimpan. Mellya dah pasang angan nak try yang RM50 per week tuh. Every week terus transfer RM 50 ke ASB. haa kalau letak dalam tabung ada pulak tangan ni mengorek time-time bernafsu hihihi Kbye! ❤

12 New Chapters 365 Chances, My New Year Resolutions


Assalammualaikum


Rasanya tak terlambat untuk post tentang resolutions tahun baru Mellya kan. haha Even though harini dah 8 hari bermula tahun baru. 365 hari, setiap hari adalah peluang untuk mengubah sesuatu tau. So, 2017 resolutions korang, adakah tercapai semuanya? haha tak bagi Mellya sebab ada yang tercapai dan ada juga yang belum tercapai. 

What I've learnt from 2017

Goals comes with actions. Kalau ada azam tahun baru tapi tak da actions, how is it supposed to be fulfilled? hehe maybe adala usaha but its not enough and i admit it thats why some of my goals unfortunately failed to be fulfilled. 

Reasonable goals. You can do anything not everything. Having a lots of goals but you need to ask this question to yourself, "can you fulfill all of them?"

So selepas menginsafi atau muhasabah diri, terhasil lah a list of :

My 2018 New Year Resolutions


Instead of my selfie post, im showing off my untidy table for you to see lol. Setiap orang mesti ada azam tahun baru kan? Including me. So i had a few goals and resolutions yang diharapkan akan tercapai dalam tahun ni. Tak macam tahun-tahun lepas yang hangat-hangat tak berapa nak tahi ayam tu. hehehe

Be confident and stop worrying!

Dear self Mellya, please be confidence with yourself and stop worrying about your past and your future, but live in the present instead.  


Be healthy and drink more water

Mellya hates to drink plain water. For this year resolutions, i will make sure to drink 3 liter of plain water everyday because the goodness i will gain from it. 

Clearer, healthy and pretty skin

I will make sure to take good care of my skin from acne and scars lol ( i hope ) 

Finding new job that you enjoy the most

Dear self Mellya, do not give up and get your ass up. Find and get the job you love the most!

Learn new things 

One of the things, which is important for you is... to polish your language skills Mellya. Read more, watch more and speak more please !

Manage my finance and create a saving plans to commit to

Dear Mellya, savings is important! Its time for you to save some money. 

Keep my friends and family close

Mellya would like to plan a short getaway with my family and friends! Urghh

Give back more to the family and society

I wont share what im planning to do, its a secret haha

Have my own youtube channel

I will try my best to fulfill this lol

Last but not least, i will focus on my business and writing from now onward. 

Goals comes with actions. Kalau ada goals and resolutions but no actions, what is the point of having them? haha btw Happy New Year ladies and gentlemen ❤

Cetaphil Penyelamat Di Kala Breakout!


Assalammualaikum.


Hi ladies, so i started my 2018 with sensitive, breakout skin. Yeah sedih hahah dah umur 25 tahun ni masih lagi hadapi masalah breakout. Maybe disebabkan oleh my lifestyle? Let's talk about it later sebab this time i just want to share with you guys about ... Cetaphil. Yes! Cetaphil.

Kenapa tiba-tiba Mellya bertukar ke Cetaphil?


Actually i'm not changing into it permanently, it was just because of my hormonal and sensitive skin yang tengah Mellya hadapi sekarang ni. Haha and the usual acne soap from Sendayu Tinggi could not help me this time lol So i was changing it into Cetaphil but still using acne cream and acne balm from Sendayu Tinggi sebab they are marvelous in taking care of my acne! Oh ya for your info due to my current problem too, i turn into Klairs Toner jugak sebab this one suitable for those yang ada masalah kulit sensitif too. 

Besides that another reason for the turnover is, adik Mellya pun hadapi masalah yang sama, suddenly breakout without control and she used Cetaphil. I'm still investigating sebab apa sudden breakout ni hahaha but Alhamdulillah she's back to normal. So Mellya pun... why not?

Cetaphil Gentle Skin Cleanser

Okay for the begining, Mellya beli Cetaphil bersize 125 ml je, harga around RM 20 dekat Watsons. I didn't buy the moisturiser sebab dah ada pun moisturiser kat rumah. So Cetaphil memang sangat sesuai untuk mereka yang mempunyai kulit sensitif like me for certain period of time. Soap and fragrance free and memang tak memedihkan mata waktu mencuci. 

Actually i was afraid to use it, sebab pernah cuba pakai juga pencuci yang jenis macam ni but different bad.. and the result to my skin.. lagi teruk daripada biasa. However, this time everything changes! 

Sebelum Mellya kongsi pros and cons Cetaphil jom check dulu isi kandungan Cetaphil buatan Canada ni;


Ingredients: Purified water, cetyl alcohol, propylene glycol, sodium lauryl sulfate, stearyl alcohol, methyl ydroxybenzoate, propylhydroxybenzoate, butyl hydroxybenzoate

Directions:
Kalau nak pakai menggunakan air, apply and rub pada muka secara lembut ye. Bilas.
If using it without water, apply and rub gently. Then remove excess using soft cloth.


Pros

  • The cleanser is so light and muka rasa lebih bersih lepas mencuci.
  • Sangat sesuai untuk kulit sensitif, radang and kemerahan
  • Tak mengeringkan kulit
  • Boleh digunakan tanpa menggunakan air.
  • Menanggalkan sisa makeup yang nipis. 
  • Bukan saja pakai di muka, boleh pakai di seluruh badan juga.
  • Lambat habis compared to acne soap im using before hehe

Cons

  • Bila tak da buih rasa macam tak puas pulak hehe
  • Tak dapat bersihkan heavy makeup
  • Tak de fungsi memutihkan or hilangkan parut kalau ada mesti letup haha 
  • Ada kandungan alcohol macam tak sesuai je untuk dry skin (yang ni kena check balik)

Even dia tak ada fungsi memutihkan, but still lepas guna akan rasa or nampak betapa bersihnya kulit korang. So i'm fine with it actually. Other bad consequences, for time being, tak ada lagi, cuma apa yang Mellya mention kat atas je. hehe So for those yang kadang-kadang mengalami moment-moment kulit sensitif tu boleh lah cuba. Oh ya before i forgot, Cetaphil deserve 4/5 stars, well recommended too ❤
