EVANS DIAMOND-TOMATO ALOE-VERA MASK

I had a very bad acne problem due to Covid and mask-wearing. I was looking for a mask that would reduce my acne, and the lady at the Guardians recommended me this mask. I was hesitant at first as the price point is $14.50 for 5 masks, a bit steep. But she mentioned about how a lady bought and it cleared up her acne so well she came in again and bought a few more.

My review:

This product was heaven-sent as the promoter said. After 2 uses, all my very persistent acne cleared up. The first use wasn't very promising, but after the 3rd use, my skin became very clear and all my acne aka pimples and redness disappeared. However, I did have residue scar marks and not sure if further use of this product would help. Until now I haven't been able to fully get rid of my scars. I have also bought The Body Shop's Tea Tree Oil to help with my pimples but it hasn't got rid of the scarring as well. If you do have products to help with marks, please let me know.

Overall, this is a cult product for me. I just wanted a mask to give me relief from acne for one, two days. But this product cleared up my entire face of acne, never to return again.

Would 10/10 recommend for sure. Only issue is the price is a bit steep and it sometimes contains too much essence, which is actually a happy (?) generous problem to have hahahah.

SALMON SPAGHETTI

Today, my mom tasked me with cooking one of the five frozen salmon filets we bought a while back. At first I was thinking of just eating pan-seared salmon, but then I got a craving for cream spaghetti, and remembered that Sheng Siong was running a promotion for their cream sauce.

So after my exercise, I paid a visit to Sheng Siong and got a can of their 1.95 carbonara pasta sauce. While I was there, I saw their Campbell Mushroom soup on promo as well and remembered that my mom wanted to buy a few to drink whenever we wanted, at home. I decided pasta would taste great with mushroom soup, so I bought 2 can as well.

500g salmon

Salt

Pepper

Rosemary

1 can carbonara sauce

1 can Campbell mushroom soup

1. Season salmon with pepper and salt

2. Slice the salmon skin-side with ridges

3. Season salt and pepper and rosemary into ridges

3. Heat the pan with olive oil

4. Put salmon skin-side down

6. Concurrently, boil a pot of salted water

7. Add pasta in when water has boiled

10. Pour a can of water into mushroom soup pot and mix well

11. Cook Campbell soup, stirring all the way
