What you need to keep your skin youthful and healthy
Then he mentioned something:
"that's the main problem. orang melayu kita ni tak suka sangat rajinkan diri bersenam semua. nanti macam2 sakit dating".
which reminded me of what my friend told me, about keeping fit and eating healthy in order to look youthful even when you're old. yeap, you don't really need all those health/beauty supplements in order to supress aging.
I don't have a picture of my father and fiancé's father, but if I were to post them on my blog, I can bet that 99% of you readers may think that my fiancé's father is much older than my father.
for once, my father still has dominantly black hair, and his front teeth is still mostly intact. fiancé's father's hair is mostly grey/white. and his teeth, hehehehehe bogeh lah senang cakap lah kan.
what I can probably conclude is that due to my father's work nature, he's much active than fiancé's father. which is why my father doesn't really look much older as compared to fiancés father. my father works shifts, gets out in the field, climbs up columns, open and close valves, train new technicians who just joined the coy, I can say that he's pretty much an active person at work, but not so at home. at home, all he does is eat sleep watch tv, and also the daily 10mins jog INSIDE the house which really irritates me to the max!
a healthy and balanced diet is also crucial to your bodily immune system. it's useless to be consuming supplements that burns a hole in the pocket yet you're doing nothing to help your body detoxify all that junk and harm that you've caused to your body. it's akin to seeing the doctor for your cough but then you're still consuming fried foods and carbonated drinks. MAJOR FAIL!
someone I knew (lets call her Ilya) who took El Marino Blanc, told me that EMB doesn't help her lose weight. As per instruction, EMB has to be taken before meals so that it suppresses your appetite and thus, you don't gain weight, in fact, you'll lose weight! I didn't personally experience it myself because my weight is always fluctuating depending on my mood to eat and how hectic the sample workload is, my weight usually drifts about 50 - 55kg. So after 2 months of consumption, her efforts in trying to lose weight through consuming EMB is pretty much a wasted effort. The only plus point is that her eczema has lessen. I personally think that eczema can be treated in other alternative and much economical way!
I don't believe in 1 product that can offer you a miracle in healing this and that, even if it claims to work from the inside out. it is sooo against my principle to offer people something that is too good to be true. some people may say that "good things don't come cheap", but I beg to differ. there are other good products that are inexpensive and works just as fine!
don't fall in their trap. half of the time they won't understand the science behind how things work in the cells of your body. even if they have "doctors" who endorse the product, how sure can you be that their opinions aren't biased and that they're only in it for the money?
moral of the story:
Don't get yourself burnt.

El Marino Before & After
This is a veryvery late post, almost 1 month backdated. Before and after pics of my face after 1 month of consumption.
4 satchets daily so 4 x 30 days = 120 satchets = 4 boxes of El Marino Blanc = $113/box x 4boxes = $452 spent on El Marino Blanc just in ONE MONTH.
I don't see much difference or change to be honest. Fairer skin isn't being accomplished well perhaps because i spend most days getting my skin chao ta-ed due to the rides home after night shift. I still have breakouts though it's getting less nowadays, my skin still has blemises and those i have no idea what bumps. To each his own, if you think this "investment" is okay and affordable for you, then you may might as well go ahead. Just don't fall into this MLM shit.
Yours truly, Zue.

El Marino Blanc?
Well, I have stopped consuming El Marino for quite a while now, my last consumption was in Mid July i guess. I thought I should just let my mother consume the remaining boxes and satchets of the El Marino Blanc since she needs it more than me (collagen helps with the joints), whilst I am just consuming it for my own beauty needs.
Perhaps out of the many testimonials of El Marino Blanc online, I am the only one providing negative feedback on the product. It's not that i have not tried the product long enough, but i thought, if the product works so fast but it doesn't last long, then i may just as well stop consuming the product once and for all. Yes, my face showed signs of improvement when it stopped being so ridiculously oily and breakouts aren't as often, but after awhile, my face starts to be oily again even after consuming the product religiously.
And as for my mother, nothing much as really improved for her legs. She still feels pain in her legs when she walks, which is a sign for concern for me though.
Right now, you may be wondering, why are people suddenly promoting and hardselling the product? It's because of the incentives that is in store for them when they manage to get people to buy the product. What is it called? MLM? Network marketing?
Well my friend, MLM/network marketing sure is a lucrative market to break through for you to get rich quick. But do you seriously think it is easy to achieve what those "big shots"achieved? I first thought it was easy to get customers to purchase the products but i was sooo wrong. I let out my troubles on how i couldn't get a sale under me, and all i got was "you should try your parents, friends, relatives". I know my relatives just so damn well and i know that they aren't financially capable of getting such stuffs. In other words, my family is just not so well off. And what do i get? "don't judge them".
oh hello? since you told me to judge me, why then, are there still stories of people living in poverty and still needing financial help from the government? since it seems sooo easy for you, why then, do you not personally find these people and lure them into the MLM business since it will be just right for them to earn extra income that will put them out of poverty?
The answer is simple, isn't it? that group of people can't afford to fork out the money that is needed to fund your commission.
As time passes by, i feel that the MLM network is just filled with individuals who are greedy and selfish. they are pushing for the people below them to "meet the target meet the target" so that the downlines can "bring extra money home for their family". But the irony? these "atas" people also earn commission!
different people live by different set of principles. well to be honest i am not one who will hard sell or make people buy (they call it sharing) by claiming this product has this and that and it's good for this and that.
even if the product really works, it's really costly to maintain. one box contains 30 satchets, which is to be consumed 4 daily (2 morning and 2 at night). one box will barely last you for a month! and mind you, a box of 30 satchets costs $113 RETAIL PRICE. it will be a costly supplement to maintain.
i'm sorry. i'm leaving the networking industry. it's just not for me. i hate people asking me to sacrifice work (are you fucking kidding me?) to attend seminars, and then saying if i don't sacrifice, i don't make the effort to make my life and my family's life easier. different strokes for different folks baby.
it's okay. even though my basic salary is barely $1.7k, i guess i'm happier living my life paycheck to paycheck.
not forgetting, i still have my sideline business on facebook. i prefer to do direct selling. promoting products that are already known at cheaper than retail prices. promoting health products that increases the well being of the female reproductive organs at much cheaper than what i used to do under this networking shit.
When I do things, I do not only think of myself. I also think of the people who are going to be my prospective customer. Because i truly understand the need for people to save while they shop, thus i don't really wish to sell my items at such exuberant prices.
Well it is up to the individuals to be promoting El Marino or otherwise. I am not providing negative feedback just because i couldn't find anyone to buy it from me, neither am I providing negative feedback because I am not the lucky ones who manage to seal deals of 10-20 sets of El Marino Blanc, my feedback is entirely based on what me and my mother experience after consumption of a total of 11 boxes of El Marino Blanc over a period of 2 months.
The fuck thing?
Paying for this product BY INSTALLMENTS over 3 bloody months, but even when the installment have not been fully paid, the product is already finished.
This is sooooo frustrating i can't even.

Hazy in Singapore
Well, I knew the haze spell started as early as last thursday, it only got worst on Monday. Tuesday was my shift's first morning. I was too tired from work and forgot my El Marino Blanc Routine. No significant changes of yet, my skin still feels less oily even though i went out for my smoke break. I got 1 to 2 pimple breakout at the area where my skin touches my helmet, but that's most probably because I have yet to clean my helmet's cushion. But then again, the upper part of the helmet's cushion is not removable i might as well go and buy a new one (since the pay is in. hehehe)
Anyway, on behalf of my Elken team's part, and for the benefit of Singaporeans who have yet heard about El Marino Blanc, I am trying to collate testimonials of this product. That's why i'm also starting to blog regularly to update about what changes have I have experienced so far since taking the El Marino Blanc supplement. ((:
Do you know that El Marino Blanc can also earn you handsome side income? Do you want to know more? Add me up on facebook zuemaleq89@hotmail.sg or whatsapp me at +65 96345444
In the mean time, please take care of your health. Dont bother about the PSI readings on the media. If you think the haze is bad, THEN IT IS BAD so stay home, and put on masks if you MUST go out. I am thankful my coy provides N95 and makes wearing the mask COMPULSORY when stepping outdoors. The perks of working in an oil & gas MNC, the staff welfare pretty much well taken care of (which, IMO, happens at times like these though.)

El Marino Blanc by Elken: Day 5
What do i do when I'm stressed? I scratch my face and pinch on whatever lumps i have on my face. It has been quite sometime since i last did what i did unconsciously, but this is enough to waste my El Marino "documentary".
The pic collage is a photo before i first consume El Marino. See how my skin is sooo uneven and has that... idk what you call it, acne? i just know that the "acne" is soo stubborn it hasn't gone away, i cant even pinch it out! ouh and i also have that tiny pores that is resulted from acne scars. 5 days on, the only difference is that my face is now significantly LESS oily and some of my stubborn acne is gone! When i say significantly, it is tried tested and proven! On friday and saturday, i went out with a bare naked face (just a dab of tea tree oil by Thursday Plantation and Acnes' moisturising cream, then top it off with baby powder). Usually, about one hour after i left home, my face, especially my t-zone area will get extremely oily. But in both days when i went out, my face didn't get sooo oily!
It came to a point where i was sooo obsessed with touching my nose because it feels so good to have a not oily face. My face looks just like it's glowing from that little bit of shine on my face.
No pictures yet (because i really hate taking pictures!), but i'm sure i will not be camera shy anymore once i got my dream skin!
So whilst i consume 2 satchets of El marino in the morning and 2 at night, i still keep to my facial cleansing and maintenance routine.
What i use:
- Jericho's acne soap bar
- Jericho's facial scrub (with chamomile to moisturize your skin)
- Thursday's plantation Tea tree Oil (as a so called "antiseptic" for my acne, it works but it's very slow)
- Acnes' moisturising cream
- Twice a week i still keep to my Jericho's dead sea mud mask. Doesn't help much to reduce the oil on my skin though.
So...yeah! Stay tuned for further updates on El Marino alright?
next entry may probably be on June 2013 bellabox. This month's bellabox is awesome!!! Can't wait to blog about it. Till then, much love...

My experience with El Marino Blanc
I have confidence issues. I have issues with myself, the way i look, the flawed skin that i have. Whilst people my age are having flawless skin with few breakouts, i have breakouts all the time, my oily skin irks me the most, and cosmetics are the worst investment ever because we just don't have any affinity to each other.
Until recently, in my quest to source for extra income, i came across EL MARINO BLANC by Elken. Without any question, yes i am a member of Elken. I previously turned down most offers from my friends to join them in the MLM industry mainly because I really didn't like talking or promoting items to people and the investment sum isn't cheap to start with.
But with ELKEN, nothing is impossible. The membership fee is worth cheaper than one week's worth of your breakfast, lunch and dinner!
So what is El Marino Blanc?
in the catalogue it claims to give you a smoother, fairer and radiant skin. It is also clinically proven to provide protection against UV rays.
Isn't it awesome? So that means you don't really have to put on sunblock when going out!
friends who are close to me knows how many types of product i've tried to improve my skin condition but NOTHING WORKS. I had intended to blog on few of the products that i've tried for several months but all just went to waste as it only helped me cleanse my facial skin after a long hard day at work and also battling against the dirty air on the ride to work and home.
El Marino Blanc works! After 1 day of consumption(first consumption was on 12th june), my skin became less oily! I knew this for sure because i will usually have to wash my face with tap water and wipe it a few times when i'm at work. But on 13th june i can count the number of times i need to wash my face!!! That amazing!
stay tuned for more updates regarding my journey with El Marino Blanc. If you would like to try this product out, please feel free to drop me a comment on my blog and i will try get back to you as soon as possible.
Signing off,
Happy girl. ((:
