Cerita 3

sekarang baru m tau, 
kalau nak carik supplier untuk bisnes, manyak susah!

ye la, nasib ada internet, 
leh browse, google around. 
yellow pages pun online. 
menyenangkan idup.

yang letih ?
nak telfon, nak antar email dan ...

tunggu reply..

seksa!

Cerita 2

kita ni manusia yang tak sedar diri.
ya lah, hanya bila kita susah atau sakit, baru nak beringat.

Subhanallah, Alhamdulillah, Allahuakbar, 
Lailahaillallah Muhammadur Rasulullah, 
Allahumma solli ala Sayyidina Muhammad

m akui m tak cukup lagi belajar.
pengalaman terhad.

tapi daripada yang terhad tu dapat juga kita belajar, 
belajar dari kesilapan, 
belajar daripada pengalaman orang yang rapat dengan kita, 
belajar daripada pemerhatian kita. (but dont just make your own assumptions k.)
kesemuanya dapt mengingatkan diri kita 
tentang kekurangan dan kelebihan orang lain dan diri kita sendiri

kita juga tak boleh senantiasa percaya yang kita ni baik daripada orang lain.
we are always in between.
walaupun ada orang lain yang perangainya lebih buruk daripada kita tak bermakna kita harus lega, leka.

there will be others who are better than us.
there has been, there will be, there are, right now, others who are so much better than us.

but that doesnt mean we give up. 
atau dengki dengan kelebihan orang.
malah kita patut lebih usaha untuk menjadikan diri sebaik itu.
it can be in any form, to be nicer to people, to be richer - to give more, to help more

sedarlah m, awak tu dah tua (bercakap dengan diri sendiri)

Legoland Malaysia

i went to Legoland last week.

no pics.

hubs took pics. yet to be uploaded into his FB.

the trip was sponsored so 'yeay me'

alhamdulillah..

=)

baby was there, it was hot.

we were early so i got to rent a stroller that he didnt really want to sit in..

RM 20/day for a single stroller.

it was hot, did i say that already?

wanna go?

go next year. 

END of next year or the year after next year.

when the trees are bigger. 

with bigger branches and bigger leaves..

and book your tickets in advance.

it was hot.

for a Malaysian, m sooooo not into tanning!

its almost an everyday thing, if you get what i mean..

bought souvenir: an engraved mug, i think it was less than RM 40.

i think the lego brick keychain is slightly cheaper. with engraving.

i snuck in some junkfood/drinks in my backpack.

they didnt check.

i ate only a packet and drank only a bottle..

we ate lunch there. 

price? 

forgot to ask for receipt. 

anyway, hubs paid.

;)

didnt play any games.

...oops...

there was one.

the one where you try not to touch the moving metal with the metal you're holding.

i could've won a medium sized bear holding a heart 'I Love You' pillow.

i could' ve..

rides? 

didnt i tell you? 

baby was there.

by the way, m not into rollercoasters..

games played with baby only.

i made sure he got spurted with water at the miniland, where the pirate ship was.

that was fun!

he is a year old baby.

and getting more than a few spurts is fun.

love you nawfal!

no more shhhhytinko (stinko)

salam...

in my excitedness planning for my anniversary 
and the party.. yang nampak cam tak jadi je btw...

lupa pula m nak bagitau yang m buat m nya own DEO.

yes

Deodorant.

to get rid of my stinkiness!!

iya betul!


i admit i have a very disturbing BO.

have used many brands since high school.

tapi tak ada yang bertahan..

even went natural and used the crystal

but that didnt work either.

until now!!!
so far (about 2 weeks now), it works!

browsed many sites, and took note of 2 recipes from these sites:

1. http://wellnessmama.com/1523/how-to-make-natural-deodorant-beating-the-b-o-with-natural-deo/

2. http://www.keeperofthehome.org/2011/09/gentle-all-natural-deodorant-stick-recipe.html

the 2 links above are for liquidy deo. i say its liquidy, alright.

let me explain..
(seem to like explaining a lot coz i get to babble more)

when you go to the links, they use solid coconut oil.
here in our country, Malaysia Truly Asia (nyanyilah lagu tu), 
i could only find liquid coconut oil.
i dont know where to find solid ones.
(so if you know, let me know k. thanks in advance!)
and should you want to have a solid deo, go find solid coconut oil okay.

talking about my deo pula, (i used recipe number 2 from website number 1 above) 
it is not solid, not really semi solid but liquidy. 
not watery liquidy but oily liquidy.. 
not so liquidy like oil but i hope you get what i mean.
so, i keep it in the fridge, not freezer, and use about a tiny teaspoon for both my underarms.
and it lasts practically the whole day while i'm at work.


used in on my two teenagers and they smell, but not as bad as before.
they were my guinea pigs coz they smell, like the mother, plus the fact that they're teens. 
so it goes without saying that they needed a good deo!

website no 2 gives you a great explanation why you should be a convert from a synthetic to a more natural approach.
i might give this a try because it is a solid deo.
just need to buy the empty twisty deo container...
will update (in another post of course) when i do make this!

found more if you want to try.

7. http://ecobites.com/eco-news-articles/holistic-beauty/358-homemade-deodorants

there are so many more natural recipes for you to try, go do your own research!!

its fun!

bila lagi nak bereksperimen kan..

fyi, this deo is not an anti perspirant k. 
its a deo. 
you do sweat. 
the sweat glands under your arms are not blocked, which is a better option in the long run. you should not block your glands, its not good.
website number 3 says you can add sage EO to reduce sweating.

so, happy experimenting!!

idea? simpan dalam almari dulu ..

i said this to nana, just last night

"ma ada banyak benda yang ma nak wat tapi dia ada dan ma tak leh nak wat apa unless dia tido."

dont mean anything bad by it cuma kekadang dalam kepala ada idea (idea here is just random stuff that you happen to think off at the moment and you'd want to do it there and then) yang boleh direalisasikan pada waktu tu juga tapi tak dapat nak dilakukan due to some explainable reason or another. 

i love having him around.

i can say i love him
ya, m cintakan nawfal.

kehadiran dia buat m rasa gembira.

something to distract me when i need it..
and even when i dont need it..
this is a fact!

q: stress? 
a: with him around or without? 
q: this is a valid Q
a: both

pelik kan..

bila dah ada anak kecil di rumah, banyak perkara yang kita kena kawal.. 
yang kekadang tak terkawal juga..
akhirnya..

banyak perkara yang harus dikorbankan atau put aside for now.. hopefully not forever.

unti akan cuba untuk lebih pandai membahagi masa, for you and for myself.
hubs takpe, boleh diselitkan di antara kita berdua..
;)

unti loves you, nawfal..

None

i like reading your (many) posts than writing my own..

Ekspedisi ke BB Bahagian 3, Terakhir

Assalamualaikum,

yes, i'm in a roll.
finishing the final chapter of my BB trip.

okay..

the lunch at Nasi Ayam Hailam is zzzzz best!!

we checked out. had lunch and went home.

pickup nawfal. siapkan dia. sebab dia ikut sekali..  =)
dressed for dinner and drove to KL tower for our dinner reservation.

it was drizzling..

approached the reception and guess what?
they said our reservations was made at 6.30pm.
the email hubs received showed buffet from 9 to 11pm.
didnt state anywhere pun pasal 6.30petang!

so diorang kata booking dah released, tempat duduk dah bagi orang lain, bla bla bla..
the obvious - m memekak. tak teruk.
well, they accommodated.

we went to the observation deck (booking was for dinner and the deck).
and the deck tutup jam 9.30 malam jadi mestilah naik ke deck dulu kan..

tapi tak naik pun takpe.
really.
no big deal for me.

went to the restaurant.

shown to our first table..
sat down.
dah selesa dah ni.
tiba-tiba..
"gave you the wrong table. need to change. is that okay? i can help with watever..."
ok.
reached new table. 
made myself comfortable. with the help of course.
again.

tenang..

ate with nawfal.
namapun budak umur setahun.
mana leh makan sendiri kan..
he was my date for the night
ha ha
joking joking.

while i eat hubs dated nawfal..
ha ha

the best is yet to come....

i had a great amount of food.
dessert paling best - serawa durian dengan pulut.
yummmmm.. best!!
i love to eat i know.. ;)

we asked for the bill.

hubs took it.
nak bayar la nih.

tetiba dia pandang muka m dan sebut harga yang melampau..
i thought he was joking.
ye laa. memek muka dia time time camtu mmg m takleh nak baca.
sowi - i may need more years to fathom watever.

he gave me the bill.

i checked. it was in order but the total amount was absolutely terrifying.

hubs made the reservation online.
you know, email and such.
the sales person came back with one amount but the transaction was double the amount stated.

sapa tak terkejut beb!
sib baik dah singgah bank siang tadi.
takdela kami membasuh pinggan di dapur Atmosphere 360 pada hari anniversary kami.
tak pasal-pasal nawfal pun masuk dalam baldi skali..

so, pengajaran dari situasi ni.

dapatkan confirmation yang solid dari mana-mana supplier bila you beli barang/servis supaya you can fight for your rights bila tiba waktunya.

jangan jadi cam kitorang.
sedih wei!
taknak dah g restoran berputar tu.. for now.

kenangan yang harus disimpan jauh-jauh.
nak minta diluputkan, tak leh. sebab tak nak buat kali yang kedua.

ouch!

Ekspedisi ke BB Bahagian 2

Assalamualaikum..

This is the 2nd part to my trip to Bukit Bintang! (BB)

i wanted to write the whole trip in a few posts in one shot..

was delayed.

so here it is..

the plan to BB was to hang out with hubs, for our 3rd anniversary.
go out on a date - dinner and movie..

we started off the journey on Tuesday evening.

(kan m dah mention yang m bawak the kiddoes g BB earlier.. in the part 1 section..)

it was close to 7pm.
it was a Public Holiday for Selangor..

we reached our destination after much honking, in some parts of the city, 
and very very bad traffic.

we checked in a a boutique hotel in Jalan Tengkat Tong Shin..
(of all places i chose BB sebab kedai tutup lambat dan ramai orang walaupun hari dah jauh malam - in a way the nightlife here is longer than some other parts of KL. not saying there are no others, just saying ini adalah salah satu tempat yang happeningnya lama sikit dari biasa.)

The Courtyard Boutique Hotel is where we spent the night.

after our horrendous experience on the road (as explained above),
we finally found the hotel and checked in, after viewing 2 different rooms..
(yup, we had given the option. lucky us!)

we chose no 10, it was the room nearest to the reception 
(it was one of the rooms offered).
the farthest from the reception rasanya dah ada orang amik kut.

its a standard room. 
compact! 
upon entering, ada macam this kabinet yang block your direct entrance from the door. 

ada sitting area. kecik dan comel.
to enter, ada pintu berlipat. 
alaaaa, yang kena tolak atau tarik and the door cum window will fold into 2. 
kalau tak paham sorry lah k. 
m tak tau namanya apa..

kabinet tadi tu functions as a open closet dan tempat letak luggage, if you have any.
click on this and this, and you'll know what i mean.

more pictures on its website so you can view there.

i love the loo. the decor. the simplicity.

yes, loo is important to me.
i am a loo person. in a clean way.

the downside is the location, in an alley.
betul-betul jalan belakang yang kecik dan..
no proper parking area. 
you can park but it'll be 'Park at Your Own Risk' kinda thing.

strategically, it is in BB.
walking distance to a 24 hour mamak stall
dont remember the name buts its next to Allson Klana. 
there are some 24 hours shops like 7-11 and KK Mart nearby too. 
jalan lagi sikit, leh trus g BB Plaza, Sg Wang Plaza, Low Yat, practically semua kat Jalan Bukit Bintang lah.

Pas kitorang check-in, kitorang g makan!!!
almaklumlah tersangkut di trafik selama hampir 2 jam TANPA makanan!! lapor weih!!

m makan ayam tandoori dan garlic naan!!
sedap sangat!
tak tau lah sebab lapar ke atau memang sedap ke.. 
jadi kita amik kesimpulan yang makanannya memang sedap. 
alhamdulillah. 

pas makan, kitorang jalan kaki ke Pavilion. 
jauh sikit je.. 
untuk sesape yang suka berjalan (pakai kaki k, bukan kenderaaan) 
maka you will definitely like this short walk.

kitorang g carik tiket wayang, nak tengok cerita Breaking Dawn.
cerita ni dah lama main kat wayang
dan tak abis abis lagi! yea yea!
we managed to get nice seats for the movie.. =)

nightlife kat Pavi ni wowwwwiiee k.
kat bawah ada banyak cafe, ada live band, jadi ramaila orang. 
memang hiduplah tempat ni kan..

it was a PH in Selangor so maybe that's why there're many people here even on a Tuesday 
or maybe because its BB, thats WHY there're many people here even on a Tuesday.
get me? hehehe. paham sendiri ah.

kitorang beli tiket jam 10 malam, plus minus.
movie jam 12 tengah malam.

alasan 1 (tak ikut order k): 
we just had our dinner.
takkan nak lepak kat cafe minum-minum lagi. 
boyot lah diriku yang dah sedia boyot ni kan..

alasan 2: 
daripada tercegat tengok live band, baik balik bilik, boleh m freshen up before the movie. 
rimas wei, berpeluh-peluh camtu pastu nak dok tengok movie lagi kat dalam aircond. 
rasa busuk sangat..

nama pun dating kan.    ;)

jadi freshen up itu mesti!

so, we walked back to the hotel.
took a different route.
slightly sunyi.
a little menakutkan.
but we survived. alhamdulillah.

kitorang ikut jalan belakang kedai arab. 
siap ada pintu gerbang lagi
(tak ingat sangat, tapi m rasa dia tulis cam arab town gitu. 
you  know, iso china town its arab town sebab ada banyak kedai arab.)

pas mandi, dan baring-baring tengok cerita Beach (Leonardo Dicaprio), 
kitorang gerak semula ke Pavi. 

singgah kat KK Mart beli payung satu sebab hujan renyai-renyai..
size regular je ada, Large size takde. tapi muatlah 2 orang hehe.

popcorn tu wajib beli. 

and we watched breaking dawn.

i love the final movie!!!!

happily ever after - forever lak tu..

sigh...

my dream not yet come true...
(manade dunia ni sesempurna tu kan)
we can work for it though =)

movie abis before jam 2 pagi.
jalan balik ke hotel.
masih ramai orang di BB.

Changkat Bukit Bintang kan banyak cafe, pub, restoran internasional gitu, mana tutup awal. jam 3 nanti baru nak start tutup..

sampai kt hotel, m la yang kong dulu.. seperti biasa..

nothing much in the morning, hubs tido lambat so bangun lambat cam biasa.
checked out and carik makan!!

disebabkan kami tak breakfast, terus brunch di Nasi Ayam Hailam.

i tell you, i love this restaurant..
i think this is the best Chicken Rice shop ever!
Ever!
Ever!

hubs order nasi ayam satu set. 
nasi ayam plus steamed chicken plus peanut soup.

m order roasted chicken for myself. 
(only the chicken sebab m nak makan benda lain gak.)

oh tamaknya diriku..

kebulur giloks!

yang lain share share kerabu mangga, sup isi ketam dan tahu, kailan sos tiram.
habis k. dont play play w empty tummy.

ni menunya

our outing ended perfectly with this beautiful lunch!!

yummy
alhamdulillah..

woohoooo!!

=)

m imagining the food and the taste..

aaaaaah

ajak m bila nak pegi situ k, kalau m free m follow.

Ekspedisi ke BB Bahagian 1

Assalamualaikum...

Selasa haritu cuti umum

took the kids (aina, afiq and nawfal) siang tu g Bukit Bintang (BB).

konon nak g checkout boutique hotel yang m book tu laa (tapi tak sempat pun).  

gerak dari umah jam 12 tengahari lebih kurang.

(ni last minute planning k sebab tu lewat kuar. kalau tidak jam 9 pagi lagi dah grak.)

sampai BB jam satu lebih plus minus. 

sampai-sampai trus carik makan dan tak sempat nak merewang.

pas makan terus balik umah..

best ek (sindir diri sendiri) 

pegi BB hanya untuk makan lunch and balik. 

buat semak kepala hotak je but itulah yang terjadi. kesian kanak2ku..

fyi 

m baru tau yang kita boleh, dari Kelana Jaya (KJ) station (LRT) trus ke BB (monorel) guna satu token.

tapi m tak tau camne. 

so wanna know what i did? 

..... 

still gonna tell you anyway.. ;)

masa pegi tu macam biasa m pegi la 

(biasa here does not mean, on a daily basis. it means based on last adventure which was months ago k) 

naik dari KJ station g Dang Wangi, tukar naik monorel Bukit Nanas ke stesen Bukit Bintang. kena jalan sikit aa dari Dang Wangi ke Bukit Nanas..

Balik, ingat nak beli 1 token la trus ke KJ. 

So m pun beli token dan ingat can use the same route with the one token. 

for 3 pax k!

tapi sampai je Dang Wangi stesen, the operator said kena g Hang Tuah dulu..

time was of the essence at the time so i just bought new tokens at Dang Wangi.

Rugi aaa but what to do. 

takde maknanya nak naik monorel balik dari Bukit Nanas ke Hang Tuah dan seterusnya ke KJ (m rasa kena lalu Masjid Jamek kut dulu dan tukar tren lagi but m not sure so dont use my words against me k.)

I was just trying to explain here yang boleh le pakai satu token kalau naik LRT dan monorel, tak yah Q lagi kat mesin token tu berjuta-juta kali.

m kan dah lama tak naik lrt ni tu la yang blurr tu..

tapi m rasa yang paling senang is.. 

buy yourself a Touch n Go card. 

tak yah nak risau salah stesen turun ke, hapa ke. 

Touch and just Go!

end of Part 1

chao!

blank!

i have no idea why i started a blog..

m ingat m banyak cakap dan banyak sangat idea kut..
haha
funny kan..
:P

but i like reading more..

i've read some very interesting blogs without leaving any comments.
is it wrong? not leaving any comments i mean..

i should leave comments to get more exposure for my blog, right?

entahlah..

i am what i am..

maybe i have a lot of soaps to promote. i 'll think of a way..

pegi pasar malam...

jual 

Sabun sabun!

mari dapatkan sabun handmade dari minggek!

cuba sampler pack!

nak lagi, carik minggek lagi ya!

Sabun sabun!

or craft fairs..

or at some shop counters..

yes, i'll think of something.. SOON!

checklist untuk sabun

salam,

thinking thinking..

checklist untuk sabun dan yang seangkatan dengannya.. (not in order)

1. Packaging
haritu masa gi MAHA 2012, ada sorang makcik ni guna jerami padi dan kertas dan hasilnya recycled paper dengan corak yang menarik. terhasil daripada jerami padi tersebut. 
serius. mata m tengok cantik k. pastu bila dia pakai kaler-kaler, lagi lawa! 
so, i am definitely interested...
nak tau jugaklaa dia pakai gam apa, warna natural atau tak, bla bla bla. tapi kalau pakai warna asal pun okay gak.. maybe whitish brownish.. kut  laa kan.. tak sempat nak tengok dan tanya yang mana warna asal. m trus mintak kad nama makcik tu je. hehehe

2. Stamping
teringin lak nak beli stamp dari pasito, cantik sangat tapi harga stamp yang dah siap ialah 10 Euros dan customised stamp ialah 15 Euros. tak termasuk courier charges at 5.5 Euros. nak carik kat malaysia ni tak tau kat ne aa. 
fyi, stamp yang mr Omar wat ialah daripada KAYU, bukan getah.

3. Resepi asas untuk buat sabun
m perlukan resepi asas, standard untuk buat sabun. yang membezakan sabun-sabun ni ialah warna, design, kandungan air dan pewangi yang dipakai.. i would think kandungan minyak patutnya sama... jap.. yang ni kena wat research dulu.

ok. dah tengok 2 kompeni sabun di negara kita malaysia ni dan kedua-duanya berbeza. one uses an almost standard recipe and the other campur-campur.

so, this is the most hardest part to accomplish. 
kena ada ruangan R&D kat sini nih.

4. Pewangi
m memang plan nak pakai minyak pati@Essential Oils je in all my soaps tapi bila baca orang lainnye soap yang ada bau buah-buahan, minyak wangi berjenama, etc, macam nak cuba pulak Fragrance Oil yang bermacam-macam di pasaran! alaaaa, macam bau strawberi la, orange la. camtu laa.

5. Label
m perlu print label yang akan menunjukkan senarai bahan2 yang digunakan dalam sabun m. ni penting sebab kalau sesetengah orang yang alah pada sesuatu benda boleh je tau dia leh pakai ke tak sabun m tu. 
plus branding laa. kena la ada nama kan kalau tak cemane orang nak kenal. dan terus-terusan membeli! betui dak? hehehe

okay, what else do you think yang m miss dalam entry nih?

i think kalau nak start business sabun, i have to know all this in advance.
i would prefer kalau m dapat kumpulkan all my resources from the start but if i do that, i dont think i will start at all.. not in the near future lah..

dilemma..

planning planning

salam,

nak cite-cite nih!

m ada 2 plan!

plan nombor satu..

nak gi honeymoon w hubby.

actually, lebih kepada dating sebenarnya

Have not been on a proper date* with him for so so so so so long..

(*haritu- 3 weeks ago i think- masa bawak abah gi johor for a stint at the cosmetic surgery clinic-a dialysis thingy- adalah kitorang gi danga bay mall, siap pegang tangan gitu, rindu gila time-time camtu. masa tu tak bawak baby, jadi ala-ala dating tak dating la tapi tak proper laa, takde dinner+movie.. hehe)

So ingat anniversary ni nak overnight kat mana-mana.

jadinya dinner +movie plus some privacy. ehem ehem

M tak penah tinggal baby malam-malam sbb mmg biasa m yang tidokan baby waktu malam..

tapi m dah berjaya dapatkan sitter for the night!!

yea for me!

plan nombor dua..

m nak buat a get-together with some friends.

an all-girls thing, light food, great music, can-wear-anything-you-want.

parti sampai tak hingat dunia!!!

tak ah, hehe..

tak sehavoc tu

i want a night to dance.. its been awhile you see..

lama giloks tak nari..

so that s why I came up with this.

and...

I got a DJ at 500 bucks!

Just need the venue, its got to be a hotel coz they can do whatever but  I don’t know how much they would charge. Need to ask for some quotes..

Let’s get busy!!

ch..chao!

A plus for me!

Salam,

think it was on Friday, went to Tesco to buy stuff..

wanted to find an alternative to Nescafe. not for me, i dont really drink coffee..

so i found Boncafe. an Espresso formula..

but to my ignorance, since i'm not a coffee drinker. i bought the wrong one...

instead of the instant coffee granules, i bought the one that has to be filtered.

a bit of hassle to prepare in the morning but in another way, its a good thing!

i get to keep the coffee powder!!

to make coffee soap!!

i know i dont have time for soap just yet but it's a keeper for now.

i put it in the fridge.. for future use..

hehe

getting high - soap porn-ing!

salam..

guess what i've been doing for the past weeks

since i couldnt make time to do soaps, i view them.

YES!
YES!
YES!

entertaining myself with the much needed soap porn..
from the web and the FB group, Soaper's Retreat!

what else could i do?

I am in the office, mixing work with the tiniest bit of pleasure..

If I were at home, I'd probably make time to do a little bit of soaping.
Coz my nephew is at the nanny's..

But I'm at work and soap porn-ing is the best I could do to satisfy my urges.

...

it is a relief..

...

for now..

:(

Shampoo bar Rebatched (15Nov12)

hi

seems that i cant upload pics anymore!

I've used all my 1GB space (that I didnt know was limited)

sad.

this might be the last blog with pics, unless i upgrade, i think..

I've made the shampoo bar.

tried to do the hearts swirl but soap was to thick!

(heart colours was cocoa powder and turmeric)

hasilnya - kek batik! hehehe

 tried the pencil line 

alas!!

lye pockets showed!!!!

water+aloe vera - less water, maybe thats why..

so had to rebatch!

fyi, this soap is soft

i could mash it with my hands, with the consistency of mashed potato.

(now colour is light orange)

after 2 days, it was still soft. but i cut it anyway.

now waiting for 4 weeks to cure!

yea!!

Shampoo Bar

i wanna make a shampoo bar(s) tomorrow, using Soap Queen recipe.

maybe i could ask my mom to take care of Nawfal in the morning...

hehehe

Otherwise i cant do anything.. really.. 

right now, his naps are really really short.maybe an hour or less.
and if that happens, i really cant do anything but just sit beside him and watch him play, when he wakes up. and watch a bit of TV when he sleeps.

he's in the stage where he will crawl, yes. and CLIMB. just so he could stand.
he's started climbing the stairs, which is a definite no-no.
he has been watching us going up and down the stairs so he wants to do the same.
but he could only managed to climb the first step so far..

i'm really excited about the shampoo bar thing.
i want to cure my dandruff woes.

if it works, i can have my daughter use it too coz her dandruff problem is slightly worse than mine.

i've only used my soap bars as an All-in-One, Top-to-Toe kind-of wash. I use it for my hair and body. 

I have many soaps for use now but i want to have a specific one for my hair, 
specifically to cure my dandruff! 

hopefully this works!

XOXO
