Discovering the Mystique of Myanmar: A Journey from Yangon to Bagan
If you’re looking for an exotic adventure in Southeast Asia, Myanmar—particularly the striking cities of Yangon and Bagan—will take you on a journey through ancient temples, rich culture, and breathtaking landscapes. From the vibrant streets of Yangon to the temple-dotted plains of Bagan, my trip was nothing short of extraordinary. Here’s a detailed look into my experiences. Day 1: Immersing in…

I've been feeling kind of down lately, then I thought,
"Have you seen my hedgehog?"



She's really cute.

Burmese diaspora culture is wanting to wear Thanaka but not wanting white people asking you why you have dried piss on your face (actual thing someone asked my sister during culture week😭)
.
#i hated wearing thanaka because when i got to school id be made fun of for it (and by like. white classmates)#GOD. im not a big fan of the texture of thanaka on my face but me and thanaka are good aquaintances now.#burma#burmese culture is#myanmar

reminded me of Thanaka (Burmese face paint) which is a paste made from tree bark with antifungal and UV blocking properties. It's been used in Myanmar since the 1100s!

#i like to use physical (as opposed to chemical) sunblock since it doesn't sting your eyes as much if it gets in your eyes#but it does leave a white residue#some times when I get self conscious about this I kind of pretend in my head that I'm wearing Thanaka like these beautiful people#it makes me feel prettier even though I'm just playing pretend

My Spider-Sona I keep re-designing this guy but I feel like I’m pretty satisfied with this desgin
His name is Phyu Zar and he’s a bit tired
The yellow streaks on his face are thanaka, which is pretty much like sun screen but Burmese. The “dress” he wears is called a longyi, which is a garment worn by men and women commonly in Myanmar. The hat is also, your typical straw hat, except 100% fancier or so.
Yeah 🍷(^_^o) thanks for looking by!
#my art#spiderman oc#into the spider verse#he’s Burmese/Arankanese#btw#oc#across the spiderverse#spidersona#spiderman#he’s also a bit gay#atsv#I wish for more representation of my country

Kenzo Amour
Noses: Daphne Bugey and Olivier Cresp
notes: rice, white tea; frangipani, cherry blossom, heliotrope; vanilla, incense, musk, thanaka wood
Kenzo Amour is a straightforward gooey rice pudding fragrance, powerful and sweet.
Ironically, given the “Asian-inspired” marketing campaign, it’s maybe the ultimate in lactonic (milky) scents that put dairy front and center.
Despite my well-known distaste for sweet gourmands, I find Amour surprisingly lovable; the milkiness is comforting, and the powdery heliotropin makes it stop short a half notch from the over-rich dessert zone and remind you it’s a perfume.
If you’re looking for a canonical, real-deal sweet milky vanilla comfort scent, this is the one.

Kayan Lahwi / Padaung
A subgroup of the Karenni / Red Karen people.
One of the recognised ethnic groups that make up the Hill Tribes of Thailand. They are an ethnic minority of Myanmar, (formally known as Burma.)




The women are famous for wearing brass neck rings (historically copper and gold were used) which give the appearance of elongating their necks.
It is common to see women and children using thanaka paste on their faces, especially the cheeks and nose.
It can be rubbed on or drawn on in elaborate shapes.
As well as being considered attractive, it provides some protection from the sun.

Thanaka - Ancient Skin Beauty Aid from Myanmar

Only now becoming known in the West, thanaka is an organic beauty aid and skin protector found in the Southeast Asian nation of Myanmar (also known as Burma). Myanmarese women and children have used it for 2,000 years to maintain a youthful look and take advantage of its dermatological benefits.
Pronounced tah-nah-KAH, thanaka is processed from the bark, roots, and wood pulp of the thanaka tree, which grows to about 35 feet and is found in the country’s dry central region. It is mixed with water to form a bright yellow paste. Myanmarese applies it to the face and neck in various patterns ranging from circles to ornamental flower and leaf shapes.
In addition to enhancing one’s appearance, thanaka improves the skin, giving it a healthy glow. The main ingredient, marmesan, is a sunblock and cools hot skin. Suitable for oily or reddened skin, thanaka helps prevent acne and blemishes.
