still awal,still in my 1st trimester...i  have to make loads of doa so nothing bad happens to the baby/janin InshaAllah...

also i would like to take this opportunity to wish everyone Eid Mubarrak. and Please have a save journey masa balik kampung nanti..make loads of doa, to jauhkan ourselves from any bad incident during raya InshaAllah...

For myself, this year is going to be my first time tak balik kampung, because my morning sickness/muntah2 has been quiet bad. I'm in no condition  to travel long distance...also that's why i haven't been updating my blog, i was too weak to even open my emails and blog..

A special Ramadhan post....

Salam everyone, 




I found this amazing book on Ramadhan written by Um Imtiaz( Mazalina K. Ghouse) distributed by Al-khadeem....I would love to share it here....some of the articles that i find is an absolutely amazing reminder for all of us on preparing for Ramadhan....

1) seek sincere repentance 
first- seek forgiveness from Allah swt and feel regret for all the sins committed.
second- ask the people whom we know to forgive our mistakes and foults.
third- free our hearts from negative attitudes and thoughts towards others...This will help our heart to be at peace and happy.


2) complete missed obligatory(wajib) fasts.
please make sure we have ganti ALL our fasts before Ramadhan comes.


3) seek knowledge on Ramadhan (very very important!!!!)
It is advisable to read books which are related to the rulings on fasting and it's virtues. This will develop better understanding of Ramadhan. Those who are head of family, it is their duty to educate the family about the acts of worship that should be performed during Ramadhan.


4) avoid activites which distracs acts of worship
Ramadhan is only 29-30days, therefore it is wise if we organise our work our work so that it does not distrac us from fulfilling our duties towards Allah swt.

Oh mashaAllah it may be only 4 things, but i can say, its a lot harder to do...I would like to share one of my past experience during Ramadhan.

 a few  years ago, before Ramadhan started, I went for a talk , to preparing for Ramdhan...And the scholar mashaAllah gave a detail explanation on ganjaran and dosa during Ramadhan....once of the things he mentioned was that some poeple yang puasa in ramadhan, mmg tak dapat pahala langsung, hanya sekadar haus and lapar sepanjang hari...base on the hadith sahih below....


Hadith - Al-Tirmidhi #1989, Narrated AbuHurayrah [Darimi transmitted it.]
Allah's Messenger  said, "Many a one who fasts obtains nothing from his fasting but thirst, and many a one who prays during the night obtains nothing from his night prayers but wakefulness."

Here are 8 very important things to do , to make Allah swt accept our puasa, inshaAllah for those that practise this will recieve the full reward of ramadhan...

1)Niat (intention): Remind yourself again and again that you are fasting in obedience to Allah. Be sincere in your intention. You want Allah to accept your fasting. The Prophet (peace and blessings be upon him) said:

“Whosoever fasts in Ramadan with faith and seeking Allah’s reward, all his past sins are forgiven.”(Reported by Al-Bukhari)
2.Sunnah: Observe the sunnah in fasting. Take the sahur meal a little before dawn and end your fast at sunset. Observe all the rules of fasting. It is very important to fast according to the example of our Prophet Muhammad SAW.

3.
Wara`(Avoiding everything haram(forbidden) or makruh (disliked): Be conscious to have halal(lawful) food,halal income, halal relations. Avoid watching bad TV programs, videos, movies, etc. always but especially during this month. Keep your body and mind very clean. Avoid wasting your time in useless things and pursuits.

4.Qur’an: Spend more time with the Qur’an. Read Qur’an every day. Try to finish at least one time the whole Qur’an during this month in your own personal reading. Read some hadiths and the books of 
seerah(the Prophet’s biography).

5.
Salat, du`a’ and dhikr of Allah: Pray on time and observe all Prayers. Do not ignore the Tarawih Prayers. Perform more supererogatory Prayers. Do as much worship as you can. Make more dhikr (remembrance of Allah) and du`a’(supplication) for yourself and for others. Repent and ask Allah for forgiveness as much as you can. This is the best time for devotion and seeking Allah’s forgiveness. Seek Laylat Al-Qadr (the Night of Power) by special devotion during the last ten nights of this month.

6.
Zakah, sadaqahand generosity: Be very charitable and generous. Give more and more to help the poor and needy and to help good social and community projects. Also be good to your friends and neighbors. Let your non-Muslim neighbors and co-workers know that this is your blessed and sacred time.

7.
Husn As-Suluk(good relations with others): Try to be extra kind and courteous during this month. Forget your quarrels and disputes. Reconcile and forgive. Do not get involved in backbiting, lying, cheating, and anything that is wrong. Be very good to Muslims and to all human beings.

8.
Tafakkur(contemplation): Think, reflect, and plan to improve the moral and spiritual condition of your own self and your family. Think about any wrong things and sins you may have been doing and decide to correct yourself. Think about any deficiencies you have in your Islamic observances, and plan to change yourself. Think what you can do for the Ummah and for humanity to make this world a better place for everyone.


"O you who believe, fasting has been prescribed for you as it has been prescribed for those before you, so that you may attain taqwa." 

[Noble Quran 2:183]

on makeup artist...

salam everyone,

I know i haven't been the best at updating my blog,  alhamdulillah i just recovered from the worst food poisoning  I have ever gotten....tersuk sgt, sampai i had fever....

anyway also it donesn't help that my laptop still rosak, heish i haven't had the time to reformat my PC...

ok todays topic is on makeup artist...( sadly i have not receive any official pictures, so all pictures will only be uploaded once i dah dapat the gambar, i will update this post)

during our functions, we manage to work with 4 makeup artist, which is Sue cantik, Lova, Ayang kamel and A...ok...

now lets start with the good news,

MY untimate favourite makeup is def by faarrrr by LOVA...mmg me and my sis paling suka makeup by lova...she has this natural way of doing our face, just as how i want my makeup to be....so natural yet beautiful..lova's foundation is golden, so my skin macam had a glow, the whole day tak crack and the best part, it tak nampak putih on digital camera..i love it sooooo much, very simple but beautiful mashaAllah....so yes if anybody asks which makeup i love most, it has to be LOVA...i quote what habib said " from now on only Lova can makeup your face, no one else"..

sue cantik, was very nice, but my biggest issue is because sue is a man, and the foundation is tebal sikit, so my foundation cracked during the function, my face looked dry..tapi in the picture and video, mmg tak nampak...so i still love the makeup....

ok as for ayang and kak A....

ayang, mashaAllah is the nicest makeup artist among all...so lembut, while we were getting ready(imagine there was 4 orang kot tgh makeup sekali) ayang was very sweet to  let us pinjam his eyeliner....ohh he is so baik....tapi is not that I didn't like ayangs makeup,  i just feel that, it didn't suit our kind of face itu je...but i have to say, ayang is very very baik...

lastly ..kak A( i cannot name her sbb this is a bad review) was friendly, we were talking quite byk masa she buat makeup...so i explained to kak A, i only like 1 type of makeup...heavy eyes but nude lipstick and blusher...but sadly, she didn't give me that type of makeup..when i saw myself at the miror, my lipstick sgt merah, and blusher sgt merah..and when i said, terang sgt, she was a bit upset, and cakap, "tak dik nanti kat camera nampak natural"...you see itu yang buat a marah, sebab sue cantik and lova, did a very natural nude look, and takde pun nampak pudar on camera

sampai I open my pictures, to show how sue and lova mekup my face...stress sgt masa ni..lepas tu, i cakap nak light lagi colour dia....she pun sampai 3 kali tukar colour and sindir me and said, kalau colour macam ni, macam tak pakai lipstick and warna lagi pudar dari my own lips...but for me, that is what I want...

But masa i saw gmabr from the pictures he took,  daniel zain tunjuk sikit, the makeup ok masa malam tu, tapi gambar siang semua mmg nampak my blusher and lipstick terang....and my foundation colour macam grey sikit(takda glow). I'm also upset because i bayar RM 750 (lagi mahal dari lova and ayang kamel), and i saw some product makeup yang murah.....i feel cheated esp on the foundation that is why my foundation looks grey...i'm very particular about cheap makeup, sebab i have sensitive skin...cheap makeup product uses cheap chemicals...but the best part is after everything she sms me to minta maaf and said hoped i liked the makeup...walaupun ada problem sikit, all in all it was ok....it was my mistake jugak, I pun nak tukar her trademark style, of course she pun tak happy...

for lova and sue cantik, mmg i have seen bride lain and i suka the style...tapi the other 2 makeup artist tu, mmg i tak minat sgt, esp the colour of the foundation..I am very particular with the colour of the foundation....i paling tak suka when the foundation turns grey or white...tak nampak seri....
.
My advice to everyone, find a makeup artist yang u suka, from what you  see at other brides...


p/s: what is cantik and beautiful for me, might be too simple or tak cantik for others...please take note that this is a personal review of my personal taste...

henna for reception



I shall start my first entry with our lovely henna....oh this time henna was amazing, and i was VERY happy with the end results...if I had to recommend , i would def say this time henna is a lot better than my nikah hari tu...

amrina dear, thank you sooo much....btw, all this pictures were taken by amrina's hubby...so credits to him...hehehe...

 hubby helping me choose a design
amrina, getting ready the cone...
henna in the making
i did matching ones for my feet
the final results...its soooo kemas and fine kan...ohh i love it soo much
For my sister she choose something more grand of course, because this is her nikah...very very unique the design...mashaAllah...
matching set on the kaki...macam tak percaya kan, how neat it is...

trust me i have done henna in a loooot of places..this is one of the paling kemas i have ever gotten...

for my tandang amrina came over to the house again to top up, amrina wanted to come hari khamis, but on Thursday my henna was still terang and clear..so on Friday tu, i scrubbed the henna from my hand from reception on my side and last minute mintak tolong if she can come Saturday morning... but this time we had to use instant henna...the sayang part is because it was intant henna, it kembang on my skin, so it didn't look fine...but that was not amrina's fault, it was the henna yang kembang..

bottom line is, if in the future anybody asks me about henna...amrina, she is the girl to go to...inshaAllah...
