Go to DurianDelivery.com.sg for more details. 

My Review
To be frank, this is my first time hearing online durian delivery. I always thought the only way to buy durians is to go personally in store. And also delivery is to the durian stores only. Never to the customer's house. 

So I got so curious and excited when I get to know that there is actually a durian delivery online store. 

At the click of my fingers and comfort of my home, I get to enjoy quality fresh durians delivered right to my doorsteps. No queuing, no competing with the heat, no worry how to choose the durians and no cheating issues. 👍

Durians from DurianDelivery.com.sg came in an air sealed container. This is really good as this means freshness is sealed and also no durian smell. This makes it easy to store if we cannot finished and needs to put them in the refrigerator. 
Came in an air-sealed container.
I must mention this. The plastic sealed cover is really easy to peel off. Usually, I will need to cut them in order to remove it. But I don't have to for this. 
Easy to peel off.
And the Royal MSW and MSW durians smell just came flying strongly out of the container once I peel off the cover. Let me tell you, to those that love durians...this strong smell is heavenly...but for those who don't....hide in your room please...hahahaha...
This should be the water absorbing pack.
There are 2 types of durian that I try here. One is the normal MSW and one is DurianDelivery.com.sg signature, Old Tree MSW Durian. 
Mao Shan Wang (also known as Musang King)
Royal MSW (Hand-Picked Old Tree MSW Durian)
Ok....my first question is what is the different?? Let me do the job for you. 😁 Actually it is really easy. 😝

Lets talk about Old Tree MSW first. Durian flesh, the old tree MSW is firmer, brighter and smoother and color looks more yellowish. Taste wise, old tree MSW taste less sweet and more bitter as compare. The taste is also stronger, thicker and more fragrance. 
Royal MSW (Hand-Picked Old Tree MSW Durian)
The normal MSW, durian flesh is less firm and look less smooth. The color looks dull yellow as compare. Taste wise, the normal MSW taste more sweet, less bitter, creamy and very soft. Taste less fragrance and not so thick as compare. 
Normal Mao Shan Wang (MSW)
Well, it is actually very personal when comes to taste. For me, I like my durian less sweet and firmer. So naturally I like the old tree MSW more. But my mum and my blog buddy loves their durian sweeter. So they like the normal MSW more. How about you??😃

Also, look at the seed of the durian....they are so small. That means a decent thick amount of durian flesh!!! And if you are adventurous enough, I saw from a TV show that the seed of the durians can be use to make tonic soup. Yum Yum!!!
Seeds are all very small.
Eating durians means sharing time. I had a durian feast with my blog buddy and my mum. The great quality durians makes our durian feast an enjoyable one. No watery durians or tasteless durians anymore.Every mouthful taste so delicious!

And what if your durian came watery, unripe or sour?? No worries, DurianDelivery.com.sg will get it fully refund or fully replaced for you. This is the service I like best, quality guarantee. 

Oh yah.....durians that I can't finished, the next day, it still taste as great as the day before. Actually cold durian taste as shiok too. I also use it to make dessert too. 
Durians that you can't finished can be made into desserts. (Delicious Durian Ai Yu Jelly)
Taste really delicious! And even the housefly came flying into my house. I remember old folks telling me that housefly will only come when your fruit used less or does not use insecticide. Well...now I get it...as so many time I eat durians, this is the first time housefly came wanting to have a share of my durians.  😂😂😂

Oh.....there is something which I must mention before I end my review here. Do you know that besides the usual health benefits of consuming durians that you have heard of like aid digestion, cure insomnia, prevent cancer and anemia, etc, it does contribute to your skin beauty care too.

Yes, you heard me right. Durians help your anti-aging skin care. It is high in vitamin C which fight free radicals, helping reduce pigmentation and wrinkles. Also, flavonoid in durian can regenerate damaged dead skin and tighten skin, which helps maintain your skin firmness and moisture. 
来来....Come eat "Liu Lian" (Durian)
However, the word is still moderate. Eat moderately to enjoy the benefits that durian gave. Durians are delicious but don't over eat yah!! Of course, eat quality, fresh and value for money. I personally feel that DurianDelivery.com.sg fulfills all these factors. 

Where to buy them?
With the great quality and taste of the durians and the convenient you get, price wise is actually consider value for money to me. 

Give them a try!!! I am sure you will love them too. 
Yummy Yum Yum!!!
These great durians can be bought from DurianDelivery.com.sg. Their MSW, Royal MSW and red prawn are on sale at time of this post. Go check it out and feast away!!!

Eyes are the windows to the soul. So it's important to take good care of it and it's surrounding. How? The easiest outer care is to put on eye patch. Come check out Petitfee Hydrogel Eye Patch

This eye patch came in a generous amount for each container. It's easy to put on and although it does not cure my serious dark eye circles, it helps to not worsen the condition.

  2. Apply for 20 - 30 Minutes and them remove. 
  3. Gently pat the remaining liquid for skin to absorb.
My Review
Eye area is the most delicate part of the skin. Eye area is the part of the skin on the face that show sign of aging the earliest.

My eye area have been damage with long hours of facing the computer and late night sleeps. Yes....it is dark eye circles. So besides applying eye gel, I always make an effort to apply eye mask twice a week, in hope that my dark eye circles will not become worse at the very least. 

The first thing that attract my attention to use Petitfee Hydrogel Eye Patch is the large amount of mask in each container. (60 pieces)

I have tried 3 different varieties of Petitfee Hydrogel Eye Patch. Actually, all have the same effect except for the shape and color of the patch.

Apart from Gold & EGF Eye Spot Patch having a very weird shape, the rest of the eye patch is having the normal tear drop shape. 
Shape of the eye patch.
The patch is slippery and jelly like to touch but does not tear easily. The serum on the patch is thick and transparent. 
Serum is thick and transparent.
During application, it does feel cooling and does not slip away. But the shape of the Gold & EGF Eye Spot Patch is a little difficult to apply. The rest is still easy to apply. 

The eye patch will also become thinner after used. 
Eye patch have their own thickness.
But it became thinner after used.
Oh yah, it came with a spatula for getting the eye patch out of the container without contact with our hand for hygiene purpose.  
It came with Spatula.
Having used so much of these eye patch, I do feel that it does help in keeping my eye area hydrated. But it does not really cure my dark eye circle problem. It does help to not worsen it though. Guess besides using eye product, to cure my dark eye circles, I do have to make an effort to change my lifestyle first. Otherwise even the best product will never solve it.

Black Pearl & Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch
Of all the 3 types of eye patch, I love the Black Pearl & Gold Hydrogel Eye Patch most as it gave the most visible result on my eye area.
Before and after used.
Ok to end this post, I must say that this eye patch is actually value for $$ if you have a small budget. Although it is not a 100% eye patch, for the amount paid and the results it produce, I personally think it's still worth investing on. Well....for you to judge too. 😉

My Review
For not sure what reason, my skin is always thirsty. Therefore, product that moisturized or hydrates skin always attract my attention. 

Over the pass few weeks, I have been using Rarita Jeju 8 Aquamarine Soothing Gel. One thing that really interest me is it's multi-purpose function. 

The soothing gel came in a 300g blue tub.

Great to know it's covered with a plastic cover over the top. 
Covered with a plastic cover.
This soothing gel actually has a very light floral fragrance that smells like lavender to me. It has a transparent gel like texture. 

This gel texture turns into watery texture during application. It actually feels cooling. Especially so when it's place in the refrigerator. 
Gel like texture that turns into watery texture during application.
After application, my skin feels really smooth to touch. 

Off all the multi-purpose function, I like best to use it as a sleeping mask. Especially so when I sleep in air-con room. After applying overnight, the next day when I wake up, my skin feels ready rather than very oily on the T-zone. 

To people who do not like to use a lot of products or rather simply lazy, this is a rather convenient product. I not only use it as a sleeping mask, I used it as my body lotion, moisturizer and hair essence. 

It's soothing ability did wow me. I apply it over my mosquito bite and soon after, the itchiness and redness subside. 

Let's check out what my skin analyzer have to say before and after application. Skin did improve. 😁

Overall, I did find this soothing gel useful in many ways to not only my skin but to my hair and nails as well.
