 The bodysuit is a versatile piece, so it can be worn all year round. In winter, it can be an important helper to protect you from low temperatures. You can create elegant and stylish looks.

Start by choosing a warm and comfortable Popilush shapewear bodysuit. There are several models that can be used in conjunction with wool, velvet and even leather items. There are several combinations that can help you enrich your appearance in winter without much effort.

Combine the bodysuit with velvety or thermal pants to give you a nice, warm look. If you're working in closed spaces like an office, a tweed blazer is chic and delicate.

For a trip to the mall, a wool skirt becomes an option that gives you good warmth and femininity. You can also wear a sweater or overcoat over the bodysuit, creating fluid layers is the best way to warm up without weighing down the look.

A fabric with elasticity adapts to many body styles. A piece with a snap closure in the crotch makes it easier when you need to use the bathroom. You can shape your belly and align your posture through the modeling mesh that this model has.

No, you don't need to. A deep V neck bodysuit, for example, already provides support and the perfect design to embellish the bust area with support. These pieces are already designed to be used as underwear, but also as main clothing in a comfortable way that provides maximum safety for the female figure.

 The shoulder buckles provide greater adjustment and you can even remove the straps if necessary. It is these details that make your bodysuit its best version. Compressed shaping lining keeps your tummy free from dimpling or bumps.

Yes! Even more so if you want a more fitted look with a touch of boldness. A bodysuit with long sleeves and transparency can be used to go to night parties. In a light color, combined with a chain and gold earrings, it gives a sensual and elegant look. When choosing leggings for the winter, choose those with a double layer to help retain heat. They can also be lined with fleece, so you stay warm. Pair with boots for the perfect dramatic urban look.

A bodysuit with double-layer fabric in the belly area, create a perfect hourglass shape. The butt becomes more elegant with the T-shaped buttocks design. The soft degree elasticity is a symbol of comfort for you to further expand your achievements, feeling confident and powerful with your appearance. Add warm accessories, a scarf, hat and gloves are essential this winter.

Yes! You heard that right. Durex is schooling youth on the ins and outs of intimacy and staying safe to address the rise in sexual activity.

With the rise in sexual activity amongst youths in Malaysia, Durex, the world’s #1 sexual well-being brand, is taking bold steps in providing a safe platform where young Malaysians can learn and find the right information and facts about sexual health at the first ever Durex Academy.

Based on the survey conducted in 2022, the average age of Gen Z’s first intercourse experience is between 15 and 22 years old. 1 in 3 believe that sex shown in pornography is normal sex and alarmingly, 31% did not know that a woman could get pregnant the first time she engages in sex. Almost 40% believe the myth that STIs are only transmitted through penetrative sex and more than 1 out of 5 youth have sexted* before (*sent a provocative text or lewd photo). These findings initiated the Durex #COMETOGETHER campaign which focused on helping young Malaysians speak out and learn about sex through an enjoyable, safe and reliable platform and drive conversations around the subject matter without fear or stigma.

The Durex Academy, which is an extension of the #COMETOGETHER initiative, now takes that same objective to the next level. Aimed at cultivating safe and healthy intimate practices, encouraging more open conversations around sex and destigmatising myths and taboos surrounding sexuality education, Durex Academy is a continuous effort to address the survey findings by breaking it down into learning modules covering three main syllabuses. 

Kicking-off with Ms. Puiyi earlier in the month, the campaign will feature an online semester covering three main syllabus which are Let’s Warm Up, #ComeTogether Prepared and Sexy Facts 101. Each syllabus has been designed to address misconceptions and educate young Malaysians on accurate and enlightening information about sex, health and pleasurable safety. The segments will cover topics such as consent and bodily autonomy; sexually transmitted infection (STI) prevention; and communication and relationship skills. Making it even more interactive are the Masterclass video sessions conducted by Durex Academy lecturers Daphne Iking, Alex Chee and Alvy Joanna.

As an added bonus, students of Durex Academy will also receive a personalised e-certificate and a mystery gift once they have completed the S-Level exams online, and be empowered with better knowledge, understanding, and the confidence to make informed decisions about their bodies, relationships, and overall well-being.

“We recognise that there is a genuine need to equip Malaysian youth with the right information about sex. Sex education is the compass that empowers individuals to navigate the complex terrain of relationships, intimacy, and personal well-being. It illuminates the path towards informed choices, consent, and responsible decision-making, fostering a society where knowledge conquers ignorance and respect triumphs over fear,” commented Jerome Goh (Marketing Manager, Durex Malaysia)

The Durex Academy will also be running on-ground workshops in colleges and universities in the Klang Valley in collaboration with SPOT Malaysia, a comprehensive sexuality education provider whose vision is to help young people become confident and resilient in making informed decisions for their well-being.

To launch the initiative, Durex Academy hosted an Open Day which featured interactive educational exhibits, introductions of the ‘online lecturers’ and a panel discussion with certified sexologist, Andrea Koh and SPOT Malaysia founder, Siti Aishah. The constructive dialogue touched on real-life issues that youths struggle with, barriers that are preventing progress around this topic and the evolving sexual trends of today.

“Sex education is a powerful tool. It dismantles ignorance, dispels myths, and fosters a culture of consent, respect, and healthy sexual expression. By embracing comprehensive sex education, we pave the way for a future where individuals are equipped to navigate their own sexual journey with wisdom, compassion, and the freedom to embrace their authentic selves,” added Goh.

Durex has been committed in supporting more knowledgeable reproductive healthcare and raising awareness of protection worldwide through the establishment of effective sexual health initiatives. The Durex Academy is part of that commitment and aims to increase young people's knowledge and improve their attitudes related to sexual and reproductive health and behaviours.

After lunch we headed over to Timah Tasoh, Santuari Ikan Air Tawar for a boating activity. There was a cute little lamb that greeted us as we arrived. 

@sebrinahyeo Looking forward to go back there again and bring my family along ❤️ #TravelogueMalaysia #TravelogueMalaysiaPerlis #unicastanaholidays #Perlis #LetsTravelwithOurUnicStyle #tiktoktravel #santuariikanairtawar #bukitchabangmari @TravelogueMalaysia @unicastana holidays ♬ original sound - Sebrinah Yeo

The boat experience was an eye-opening experience. We got to enjoy the sights and sea breeze. The view is spectacular! Even if you don't own an iPhone but the image and video that you will capture will surely be captivating because the entire view itself is just so majestic! 

We got to see Gunung Chabang Mari at the sea and also we saw some areas that was blocked off with some historical stories being shared during our boat ride that some places actually used to be a village that is now filled with water. It's basically like we are right over Atlantic City, there was literally a village right below the water as we glide through. 

There were some areas where we also saw the tip of the roof on the surface of the water, and these houses are of the olden days houses that is already submerged in water. Talk about solid structure that is still standing strong underwater.

It was a great activity to also enjoy yourself without the stress of the hustle and bustling of the city and your work/business matters. And a place to just unwind and relax. Allows time for your food to digest too.
