D'EYEKO: SITY LIZA EYELASHES

Hi Ladies and GentleMen! Rasanya sudah umum kalau dikatakan mata adalah jendela jiwa, apalagi kalau framenya bagus pasti jendela rasanya makin kinclong hehehe. Singkat kata, this is my 1st attempt to use fake eyelashes. Di Indonesia sendiri sudah banyak produsen lokal yang menghasilkan premium brand fake eyelashes, salah satunya adalah D'EYEKO. 

Setelah berbagai penelitian dan pencarian Eyelashes yang pantas untuk pemula, saya memutuskan untuk membelinya di Watson seri SITY LIZA seri Seroja, kalau gak salah harganya IDR 70,000 dapat 2 pasang, lumayan hemat karena 1 pasang bisa dipakai sampai 8x. Tidak kalah pentingnya adalah lem untuk bulu mata palsu, karena lokasinya yang dekat mata, wajib hukumnya aman dan nyaman. Merk DUO menjadi pilihan pertamaku, karena harganya tidak terlalu menguras kantong, reputasinya juga baik. DUO kubeli di Sephora dengan harga IDR 149,900 (lumayan bangkrut nih beli 1 set ini berhubung banyak kondangan bulan September).





Merek DUO ini bagus, karena warna lemnya hitam keabuan, jadi waktu ditempelkan sangat menyatu dengan bulu mata natural kita.
How to Use?
1. Ambil bulu mata, ukur di mata kita apabila kepanjangan atau bagaimana, biasanya bisa dipotong dulu
2. Oleskan tipis-tipis lem bulu mata palsu, tunggu kira-kira 30 detik biar 1/2 kering
3. Dengan Pinset, aplikasikan mulai dari bagian dalam mata, disusurin ke arah luar (pakai pinset dan jari supaya lebih rapih
4. Kedipkan cantik matamu biar terasa pasnya.
5. Jepit dengan Eyelash curler biar menyatu, dengan bulu mata natural kita
6. Tambahkan Mascara bila suka

Pada prakteknya, susah-susah gampang mengaplikasikan bulu mata palsu, 4x coba baru rapih...
Well Practice makes Perfect, memang harus lebih banyak latihan, mudah-mudahan bisa jadi expert 
>.<
If I become better, I will buy another set of Fake Eyelashes


Thank You so much

FACIAL OIL: HUMAN NATURE OVERNIGHT ELIXIR




Hi ladies and Gentlemen! This is one of my favorite thing in beauty regiment... Facial Oil, from human nature: Overnight elixir. I bought it around PHP 1000 for 30 mL around October 2015 (promotion price). For me, its ingredient and its price is a great deal, because usually, facial oil is sold for around > PHP 1500

It has 9 oils:
Caprylic/capric triglyceride (coconut-derived), Helianthus annuus (sunflower) seed oil, Rosa canina (rosehip) oil, Passiflora edulis (passion fruit) oil, Glycine soja (soybean) oil, diheptyl succinate, capryloyl glycerin/sebacic acid copolymer, Persea gratissima (avocado) oil, olus (vegetable) oil, tocopherol (vitamin E), fragrance (rose-derived), glyceryl caprylate (coconut, palm and glycerin-derived), Lavandula angustifolia (lavender) essential oil, farnesol, linalool, Canarium luzonicum (elemi) essential oil, Rosmarinus officinalis (rosemary) essential oil

Aside for regular application, I usually use it to massage my face and eyes or to pull off dirt or remaining makeup. It is so effective that after I put exfoliator and mask on my face, I can still pull out some of dirt. 

Because my face is oily and has many problem, I use it 3x/week every night when I have extra times to do beauty regimen.  For only 3 drops/use (instead of 4), I really saved this oil, it is almost 1 year but I have not used more than 1/2 of the bottle.

Surprisingly,  this oil has calmed down my face, My pimple and blackhead are reduced, my pore is cleaner, and skin become supple.

I would recommend this oil for everyone (please see the exception on my previous post), Including people who has combination skin or acne prone skin.

KOREAN'S GIFT



Thank you my dear cousin, you understand me so well, 3 masks to try and 1 hand cream... It is so cute that I don't want to open it yet.
Snail and Rose, it is hip right now, but I am kinda hesitate with horse fat mask, if it would smell awful or nice instead.
I hope I can go to Korea next year, trying to save my money for other purposes >.< Playstation neo 4.5 (sigh).
She said the cosmetics in Korea is a lot cheaper, the price is about 50-60% from official counter in department store. Actually I want to try REPIT 2 in 1 iron brush, I am a lazy girl who prefer sleep instead doing my makeup, so I often sacrifice my hair regimen for a nice and clean makeup instead. I prefer short-to medium hair, so it is not a big deal for me. If I have my REPIT 2 in 1 iron brush, I will put some review here in my blog.

NATURE'S REPUBLIC: Real Nature Mask Sheet Rose

Hi Ladies and Gentlemen, last month I have received great gifts from my cousin who recently had trip to South Korea. She gave me 3 masks (horse fat, snail, rose) and 1 hand cream. As a skin care addict, I cannot wait to use one of these mask. While watching the king and the clown, you know that 2005 movie which depict the live of tyrant king and his jester troupe (aah beautiful Lee Joon Gi with his extraordinary performance) there is no better match than using Korean mask.

How to use:
1 Clean your face
2 Use Toner
3 Apply mask on your face for 10-20 minutes (mind the holes)
4 Pat dry the remaining moisturizer on your skin



The smell is a big plus for me, although ideally, a makeup or skin care should be neutral, but I cannot resist the fragrant rose smell. Even my husband said it smell great. It felt cool on my face, and wet but pleasantly soaking, the nose and eye parts are okay, it fit my face and my big nose. After 30 minutes application (10 minutes overdue), I just pull off the mask from my face and throw it to the bin, then I pat the remaining fluid on my face, it cannot completely dry, even when I went to bed, it still left sticky residue. 


Regarding hydration power, I don't think this one is special, because when I woke up in the morning, my skin felt only slightly better but otherwise normal.

DERMABRIGHT intensive whitening serum

Hi ladies and gentlemen, sorry for the slow update... I have a rather unproductive weeks last month. As I have promised, I would like to review my personal experience with DERMABRIGHT INTENSIVE WHITENING SERUM. It is a light weight serum and easily absorbed into your skin, after a regular application every night for 3 weeks, my skin tone is become better. The texture and its pore look smoother and plush, also I noticed that my oil production is reduced, maybe because better hydration. I also have lighter skin tone and it is a big plus for me, because I can use my mom's foundation. Trust me if I said there is nothing bad in this product based on my personal experience.

It has great design, we don't need to pull off the cap, just roll it on other side and the pumper will come out. The color and material scream expensive product, but its price is quite affordable. I bought it in Martha Tilaar counter for IDR 345,000 with bonus a facial cleanser. I definitely will buy it again because for a serum, it is such a great product with attractive price.
