Dry and sensitive skin requires a delicate balance that combines cutting-edge scientific research with the gentle touch of nature's offerings. La' Miux Skin Therapist achieves this equilibrium by harmonizing state-of-the-art advancements with the potent properties of natural plants. La' Miux Skin Therapist lies not only in its formulation but also in its promise to unveil your skin's innate vitality. Imagine a world where your skin radiates health, where the once troublesome dryness and sensitivity are replaced by a supple and rejuvenated complexion.

In the moisture series, I have 4 products to show you. I tried these for a while and I think these skincare will really benefit people who suffer from dry skin.

Lamiux Skin Therapist Hyalu-Mide Serum

Alright, so picture this: Your skin, like a champ, deals with life's ups and downs. But guess what? Over time, it needs a bit of a helping hand to keep that A-game going strong. La Miux Hyalu-Mide Serum contains 2 important actives, Ceramide and Hyaluronic Acid. It has a thick liquid texture that absorbs nicely to the skin. I apply this first before the other 3 products that I am going to show you later. 

Now, let's talk about Yuzu Ceramide B which is also infused in this serum. It's like the superhero version of ceramides, packing a punch with ceramide types 2 and 5 that mimic what's already hanging out in your skin. It's like a reunion party for your skin's natural ceramides, and guess what? They're here to stay.

Direction to use: Use a drop of the serum twice a day, and then seal the deal with an extra dose of awesomeness, you can totally team up the serum with either the Skin Therapist Natural Advance Crème or the hydrating moisturizing.

Lamiux Skin Therapist Natural Advance Crème

This creme is your go-to remedy for those times when redness and discomfort. Picture this: immediate relief and a sigh of comfort as your skin gets the pampering it deserves. The Natural Advance Creme is formulated with a secret recipe. A blend that's not just your regular cream, but a harmonious concoction of 7 medicinal plants. Centella Asiatica, polygonum cuspidatum root extract, scutellaria baicelensis root, camellia sinensis leaf extracts, licorice root, chamomila recutita flower, and rosmarinus officinalis leaf extracts – these aren't just names; they're the superheroes behind your skin's newfound serenity. Think of it as nature's own symphony, playing a tune that resonates with your skin's needs.

Direction to use: Apply a thin film twice daily. Can be used on hand and face. Daily care for dry and sensitive skin conditions

Lamiux Skin Therapist Sunscreen Spf40

When it comes to taking care of your skin, there's one golden rule that stands tall: protection first, always. And that's where our star player comes in – a sunscreen that's not just any old sunscreen, but a revolutionary formula crafted with precision and care. Imagine a sunscreen that feels like a feather on your skin, refuses to play the greasy game, and still manages to keep you beautifully hydrated. This Lamiux Skin Therapist Sunscreen Spf40  offers a full-on protection dance against the entire UVA and UVB spectrum. That means it's not just sunscreen; it's your partner in crime for sun-soaked adventures.

It has the best of both worlds – the physical sun protection prowess of titanium dioxide and zinc oxide, alongside the soothing embrace of ethylhexyl methoxycinnamate. Also, this sunscreen formula features the ever-so-gentle touch of Aloe vera extract. It is moisturizing, calming, and anti-inflammatory. It's like a spa day for your skin, every day.

How to apply: Use the 2-finger method every 3 hours when you're out soaking up the sun, and give it a go every 4 hours when you're kicking back indoors. Whether you're covering your hands, your body, or that beautiful face of yours, this sunscreen's got you covered.

Lamiux Skin Therapist Rejuvenating Night Cream

A velvety moisturizer that's all about that smooth, bright vibe. It's like a hydrating hug for your skin, loaded with antioxidants from natural plant extracts. With ingredients like jojoba seed oil, sea buckthorn oil, and a squad of other plant-powered wonders, it's like a superhero squad for your skin. Say goodbye to uneven tones and hello to a texture that's finer than ever. And the best part? You don't even have to fuss – just scoop a bit, spread it on after your evening routine, and let the magic happen while you catch some Zs. Your skin's gonna thank you. This night moisturizer is free of all the nasties – parabens, fragrances, colorants, mineral oil – you name it. So, whether you're a hands, body, or face kind of person, this moisturizer's got you covered. Get ready to wake up to a whole new level of awesome.

For your day routine you may go for Cleanser > Setum > Cream > Sunscreen

For the night routine you may go for the same as above but just switch sunscreen with the night cream

An update : Samsung Galaxy A34 5G

It has been a week+ since I started testing the new Samsung Galaxy A34 5G phone. I had the Samsung Galaxy A32 & Samsung Galaxy A33 before and you may search for them in this blog. The new A34 is an improved version of both models with better things to offer anyone looking for an excellent affordable budget phone.

1. Video Quality

The Samsung A34 Galaxy 5G supports 5G connectivity, which can offer faster data speeds and smoother video streaming. Most of us will use our phones to watch videos in our leisure time. So the video plays a big role in my opinion. Featuring a 6.6-inch 120Hz AMOLED display, the video looks crisp and fine. It supports the highest quality of video for a great watching experience.

2. Camera Functions & Quality

The camera is pretty decent, but not the best quality. I notice a fine soft filter during video recording. The camera for photo taking is pretty sharp too but not the best for micro picture taking or low light situations.

The camera features below MP :
Main: 48MP, f/1.8 OIS

Ultrawide: 8MP, f/2.2

Macro: 5MP, f/2.4

Front: 13MP, f/2.2

You can watch a video I made here testing the camera :

Video recording quality posted on Tiktok here - (click here)

3. Battery Life & Usage

The Samsung Galaxy A34 has a capacity of 5,000mAh battery with 25W charging. It took about 2 hours +/- for it to fully charge from below 10% to 100%. With light usage of calls, video watching and picture taking the battery lasted about 1-2 days.

4. Overall Usage & Feel

It said that the Galaxy A34 5G has a similar design style as the flagship S23 range. It has a solid firm grip size and it may look heavy but actually, it has a pretty nice weight to it. With a dimension of 161.3 x 78.1 x 8.2mm and a weight of about 199g. 

With four colors to choose from graphite (mine), silver, lime, and violet. Also kudos for having a C-Type charger hole! It is a paint o keep still using the lightning cable until now for some other phones. This is a great budget beginner-friendly phone for anyone out there!

SAMSUNG GALAXY A34 5G – UNBOXING & FIRST IMPRESSION

Assalamualaikum everyone! Samsung is back here again with the A series and this year the new Samsung Galaxy A34 5G launched since the last A33 phone was introduced around a year ago. It is one of the best mid range phones out there for people who want something simple for day to day basis use. Now let me go through my 1st impression upon receiving this phone in hand and will compare it a bit with the previous experience I had with A32 & A33.

There is a protective seal on the box to know if the phone is new or was opened. The box is similar to the previous A33 where since that, no adapters were included but just comes with the cable. The battery storage is a standard Samsung phone capacity 5000mAh with 25W charging. 

Upon 1st hand holding the phone, I could say it getting lighter than the previous one, which I find much more pleasant to hold. The one I got is in Awesome Graphite (Black) color. It has a Plastic rear and frame but does not look cheap or easily broken. It has a measuring of 161.3 x 78.1 x 8.2mm and weighs about 150g. The screen is measured at 6.6-inch AMOLED display and refresh rates of up to 120Hz for your usage & fingerprint sensor built into the screen.

What you get in the full box are the phone, a warranty card, a USB-C to USB-C cable and a tool to remove the SIM tray. The Galaxy A34 runs Android 13 with Samsung’s One UI 5.

The Galaxy A34 also has stereo speakers that are located at the top of the phone with spec of MediaTek Dimensity 1080, 6/8GB RAM. For the camera wise, I will cover it in my 2 weeks verdict of using the phone, as for the features that you will be expecting are :

48Mp main with OIS

8Mp ultra-wide

5Mp macro

13Mp selfie

Storage option: 256G only

This phone is priced at RM1,599.00
Comes in 4 color options:
