Criticism

This is just a small post about criticism I wrote tonight on my facebook.
Please have a little read, it'll take you 1 minute :)

Today's thought is about criticism.
You can either get all bent out of shape about it, call someone a bitch and get your panties in a bunch if they didn't like your idea or product, or use it as an opportunity for growth and to improve.
After all, only small children want to be surrounded by yes people!

As said by Jack Nicholson in the Tom Cruise movie A Few Good Men..."YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH" LOL
I am NEVER one to shy away from speaking my own truth about things, after all, not everything you see or experience is up your alley, it's ok to disagree and have different opinions

A FUN food review UNCLE MINGS. Sydney's 20's inspired bar.

This is my first restaurant review, so please, bear with me.

A great new bar with Chinese 20's theme has opened in 49 York St. Sydney. NSW.

The manager happened to come into an event I was attending just around the corner, and gave us an invitation to go see it.

It's called Uncle Mings, and is inspired by 1920's China.

It has Chinese "tapas" consisting of Dumplings in 3 flavors, Gow Gee in 2 varieties, Pork Dim SIms, and BBQ Duck buns. And a dessert menu of Red Bean Buns.

I tried the Pork dumplings, and they were really DELICIOUS, I thoroughly enjoyed them :) at $7.40 for 3, it's a nice tapas style snack.

I was driving, so just had a coke, but the bar has a good variety of wine and beer (Chinese, and Japanese), starting from $7.50 per glass, CIDER, SAKE (a fave) Japanese and Scottish whiskey, bourbon (naturally) Rum, Vodka, Gin and other liquors, so something to please anyone really.
They also have a small cocktail list, with cocktails that are unique, and a little bit unusual at least, from sweet, to a chilli style cocktail....how cool is that?

I would suggest you go and have a looksie, have some dumplings and a cold wine or beer if you're in the city as they are open to midnight most nights, and GOD knows, theres NOTHING much else to do in the city weeknights after 5.

PS, for the ladies, the lighting is EXTREMELY flattering :)

A'kin rose hip oil

I was recently sent the A'kin rosehip oil to try and blog about by The Purist company.
I have used various oils on my skin with great success, and had heard a lot about the benefits of pure rose hip oil.
A'kin's pure rose hip oil, contains one ingrendient...rose hip oil. No fillers, no silicons, no dimethicones, no water, no mineral oils or anything like that.
It's certified organic too, BONUS.
ROse-hip oil is knows for healing, moisturizing the skin, and making the skin feel softer and smoother. It contains pro-vitamin A, Vitamin E and omega 9, 3, and 6.
AND....it's cheap as chips.
It retails for around $16 or so for the small dropper bottle 23ml, and trust me when i say, a little bit goes a real long way. I would dare say, the small bottle would last 3 months easily. AND at THAT price, it makes having nice skin actually affordable for anyone.
I've been using 2 drops twice daily and following with a rosehip moisturizer for around 2 weeks now. It doesnt cause breakouts and makeup sits nicely on top of it too. The box recommends 3-4 drops, but as i said, around 2 drops is enough for my skin and neck area. I gently press it into the skin after i cleanse and tone. I use the A'kin rose-hip spray toner, which I already had, and I find this makes the product spread very easily.
You can mix a little bit of the oil into your hand cream too, as winter tends to dry out and age the hands unfortunately.
So far, after 2 plus weeks of using the oil, I am wrapped. It works better than a regular serum in my opinion, and you KNOW it's pure and natural with nothing man made or artificial made-up ingrendients that would take a cosmetic chemist degree to decifer.

TRILOGY ROSE HIP Skin care moisturizer YES IT WORKS

I hadn't tried trilogy products before and saw that the Australian Woman's Weekly had a free generous sized sample tube as a promotion last month.
I was really impressed with it. You could smell the essential oils immediately, giving a nice relaxing feeling.
The cream itself is nice and light and goes a long way.
I would highly recommend using a rose hip oil underneath to get the best results you want.
The rose hip oil contained in the cream is certified organic as is the marula and orange flower.
