Do Kids Really Need Moisturisers?

jes2ie @jes2ie (50) • Singapore 25 Feb 10

Hi wonderful Mummies! Need advice here - my 5 year old son is having dry skin (a little leathery-like) but thankfully it's not serious. I've been doing numerous research on the best type of moisturisers (including facial ones)...

jes2ie Hi LuaCara, Thanks! =) Yes, aloe vera sounds good cos it also has anti-bacterial function. I would like to go for the all-natural type. Any recommendation? BTW, how about olive oil (pure natural, of course)? Heard that they make good moisturisers as well...

jes2ie Hi str8_up_cutie83, Thanks for your reply =) I did hear about Johnson&Johnson having some unfavourable ingredients... Initially was using Cetaphil as my son's facial cleanser but I'm also surprised that it contains some unfavourable ingredients. Ha,...

Fake A Smile?

uniqueorn @uniqueorn (1011) • Philippines 25 Feb 10

They say that when you smile, it enlightens the mood of the people surrounding you. But there are times when within you is not going fine. Do you often fake a smile, just to lighten up the people around you?

jes2ie Hi uniqueorn, From what you shared, you do not find it easy to open to your family and you are also superficial when it comes to friends - I do hope you have an outlet to express your innermost thoughts? You do have very close friends whom you can share...

jes2ie Hi missliss08, Yes, I heard aloe is good cos of its anti-bacterial function. I heard that pure olive oil is good too and is easily absorbed by the skin. I'm trying to avoid harmful ingredients like SLS, PEGs, etc.. =) Hey, I like your DIY humidifier!...

jes2ie Hi DeenaD, Thanks for the tip! I've heard of Aveeno... just that I'm not sure I have this brand here in S'pore =) No issue with winter cos we don't have this season here... but guessed the air-conditioned environment he's constantly in also contributed to...

Why You Like Cats = What You Like in Your Partner

jes2ie @jes2ie (50) • Singapore 19 Feb 10

Hihi, just to share a theory I've come up with - that your preference for either a cat/dog is linked to the type of man/woman you're interested in. Personally, though an animal lover, I prefer cats because I like their elegance,...

jes2ie Hi MimiRemo, Thanks for sharing =) For me, I think the personality of a preference (cat/dog) may just be the opposite to your own. I feel that in most relationships, opposites attract so that is why the personality of what you like (cat/dog) reflects...

jes2ie Hi ElicBxn, Ha, interesting! And you're right about this touch of vanity in cats - preening themselves constantly. So you probably like a man who is well-groomed? Take heart, cos now a new breed of men has surfaced aka the metreosexuals. They are straight...

jes2ie Hi my_name_is_coco, Thanks for the insight =) I guess be it preference towards dogs or cats or both, there is a link between what we like about our pets and what we want/like in our partners =))

jes2ie Hi psycospaz, Thanks for sharing to support my theory =) I too have observed that partners of my friends who love dogs have dog-like traits. Ha! To add on, this could be linked to your own personality cos I feel that somehow in most relationships, opposites...

Being Told Off

Rhazelle @Rhazelle (356) • Canada 18 Feb 10

So a few days ago I kind of eavesdropped on a conversation between two people at school, and it's been bugging me for a while, so I just thought I'd ask MyLot a question about this. The two people were a male and a female, and...

jes2ie Hi Rhazelle, Thanks for the vote =) You may be right. For those with my personality, they could be on the losing end. But then again, no matter how mild they are, everyone would have a limit to their tolerance =) So for me, unless the other party is...

Janey1966 @Janey1966 (24170) • Carlisle, England 17 Feb 10

I'm absolutely shattered! All this week I have been cleaning, cleaning and cleaning some more! Why? Because we are picking my Mum up 100 miles away tomorrow and bringing her back for the weekend! If I'd got some red carpet I...

Close Buddies

jes2ie @jes2ie (50) • Singapore 9 Feb 10

How many close friends do you have? What is your definition of a "close friend"? Really curious cos personally, I do not have any(except my husband). And for those who doesn't have one too, why not? Thanks for sharing!
