Making Christmas

http://www.emocutez.comChristmas is forever, not for just one day, for loving, sharing, giving, are not to put away like bells and lights and tinsel, in some box upon a shelf.  The good you do for others is good you do yourself... ~Norman Wesley Brooks, "Let Every Day Be Christmas," 1976 

Celebrating Christmas in the winter is special for me (not Tropical Christmas), but it would be more nicer if plus with the snow too! I wish!

Here are some of my Christmas edition handmade, some are made for personal use, some are up for sale and for charity (Taichung Paws)

Many friends of mine ordering my handmade stuff (thanks guys!), even Breanna ordered some Christmas Edition Dogs Scarves for sale in Holland (thanks to Mommy Cathy too!)

Onsen Dayo!

Onsen (温泉/wenquan)= Hot Spring

No need to go to a public hot spring if you can do it at your home 
/XD
fortunately there's so many store selling hot spring bath powder in here (Hands Tailung, Daiso, Watson and even 7eleven), so many kind of brand and fragrance, from original to cakes and drink flavor hot spring bath powder!   

*You must be curious about the Horse Oil rite?
I think it's very common in Japan, more info about the benefits

I've tried Wool Oil (Lanolin) and Emu Oil for my sensitive skin, it can gives you a very supple and smoother skin feeling.
I need a good skin care product for my face during winter, so far I'm still using L'occitane Honey Cream (Creme de Miel) sometimes in a rough winter day... it work wonders! too bad they don't produce this anymore, changing to Honey and Lemon instead.
now...back to Spring Bath Powder
/hmm


Choco in your bathtub?.. why not!

*My other favorite


Feel wanna take a nice relaxing hot bath now?.....

Soaps I like

I know Lush brand for a long time but it didn't attract me much except for the good smells waving at me when I passed by their store back in Jakarta, but since I met Breanna, she's the one who makes me wanna try their product :D
Cupcake (Mask)
Luv it!, makes your skin more smoother. made of chocolate!

Amandopondo Bubble Bar
smell so fresh, made of lemon and rose.
update: cut this in 4 pcs, rich of long lasting colors sparkling bubbles! 
make your skin smoother :D 

  
 Karma (Bubble Bar)
strong smells like spices for me
Karma (Bar Soap)
after you used this,you can smell the fresh fragrance in your bathroom stays a long time!

To be Jolly (Christmas wrapped gift)
bought this with a 50% discount! :D woohoo! 
but mine it came with Karma soap (not Ice Blue soap)

I'm Looking forward to buy other product from Lush, next time I might try 'Rock Star Bar soap'
