Beauty Story Aqua Rose Swatches and Review

Hey everyone!

First of all, to say that I was missing is the understatement of the year. Sorry for that, I somehow found that blogging doesn't bring me happiness as it used to, since none of my friends even read my blog (lol). After a newfound passion and also the realization that I have lots of materials for my blog but never even posted them made me write this, in the middle of the night, just wanting to show you some pretty nail polishes that I received last year (or maybe it was 2016... I seriously forgot).

Anyways, today's post is about an Indonesian local brand, one that is widely known for its cute and awesome beauty products. They sent me a few things so that I can post them on my instagram, but the pics never found its way to my blog since I abandoned it. This nail polish line is called Aqua Rose, which is a tribute to the formula and also the cute bottle it comes in. It's a water-based nail polish packaged in rose-shaped bottle and it's so gorgeous!

ITSY NAIL review

HEYA! Today's post is going to be in Bahasa, since the brand I'm reviewing is a local brand.

Jadi banyak banget yang nanyain tentang nail wraps (are they good, why is my nail wrap so easily peeled off, etc) jadi aku memutuskan untuk membuat review Itsy Nail, sekaligus membuat tutorialnya yang bisa kamu liat di sini: 

Anastasia Brow Definer vs Etude House Drawing Eyebrow Swatch and Review

Hello! Today I have a comparison that I've been dying to do, since I couldn't find anyone talking about it on the internet. For this comparison, I'm going to give points for each subcategory. 
I bought the ABH Brow Definer in the color Ebony from here for IDR 350.000
My friend got me the Etude Drawing Eyebrow #6 Black from Korea, which cost IDR 50.000.

The Body Shop Colour Crush Mint Creme Swatch and Review

Heya guys!

I finally did a swatch on these The Body Shop Colour Crush nail polish in Mint Creme. It's a pretty blue-green pastel that I think should be a staple in every girl's nail polish collection.

By the way, I made a new logo to make my editing a little bit easier, what do you think? 

I bought these at the Body Shop counter in Emporium Pluit for IDR 99.000, and I've had this for a couple of months now but didn't have the chance to play with it until now.

For these swatches I did 3 coats and a layer of Seche Vite topcoat.

For the formula, I think it's a bit thick and kind of uneven at 2 coats so I added an extra thin layer to even it out and add topcoat for that glossy finish. I love my Seche Vite but the shrinking... OMG I'm ready to kill a man whenever I see that shrinkage near my cuticle area!

For 99.000, you get 6,8 ml of product and it's quite a reasonable price IMO.

And I added some floral patterns for KuteksJunkies challenge:

I think that's it for today, and I will see you guys soon!

Love,

SK-II x FemaleDaily.com Wings of Change Event

Oh. My. God.

That was my first response when I got the invitation to attend the SK-II Wings of Change Event held in collaboration with FemaleDaily.com. 

I have been a fan of SK-II ever since I could remember and I vowed to myself that I have to be successful so that I can buy SK-II for my skincare. My mom have been using SK-II products for a couple of months now and we all love the results.

Back to the event, ahem, which was held at Mall Kelapa Gading at 1 p.m., was attended by my fellow beauty enthusiast and so many other SK-II customers. As per usual, SK-II events are accompanied by free skin test using their magic tool and free consultation with the beauty consultant.

The event was targeted to introduce their limited edition holiday Facial Treatment Essence, which is soooooo pretty! (I ended up buying the red one and I. did. not. regret. it.) SK-II's FTE is one the most popular products and have been known to bring super amazing effect on the skin. This is the perfect gift you could ever give to anyone!

For 2015, they brought the theme "Wings of Change" which was symbolized with butterflies on the red and pink bottles, while the blue ones are designed with hummingbirds (that's Burung Kolibri for us Indonesians, lol.) I believe that wings of change is meant to be more about metamorphosis, symbolized by the amazing dancers in their short film collab with Mr. Tom Kwan.

Red - Boldness  

Fuchsia - Encouragement

Blue - Perseverance
