[ REVIEW ] NIVEA DAILY PROTECTION SUN LOTION SPF 33 PA+++

Yahalloo!!!

Akhir-akhir ini cuaca panas ekstrim sedang melanda wilayah Asia, termasuk di negara kita tercinta. Yang aku baca, suhu maksimum harian bahkan sampai menyentuh angka 37,2°C lho! Sampai-sampai viral orang-orang pada bikin video nyeplok telur di atas aspal, wkwkwk.

Faktanya, cuaca panas ekstrim seperti ini perlu diwaspadai ya, guys. Dua hal paling esensial yang enggak boleh kita lupakan adalah minum banyak air putih untuk menghindari dehidrasi, dan sun screen, terutama kalau kita harus beraktivitas outdoor, biar kulit terlindungi dari sengatan sinar matahari. Hal ini juga sempat diingatkan oleh akun centang biru Kemenkes RI di Instagram, baik banget nggak tuh mereka, hehe.

Jujur nih, aku cukup rajin apply sun cream di muka tapi enggak di badan. Lah, jangankan sun screen, pakai body lotion aja aku mager setengah mati, hiks. Tapi gara-gara cuaca panas menggila ini, aku putuskan buat cari produk perlindungan tubuh dari sengatan sinar matahari biar nggak jadi telor ceplok kalau lagi di luar ruangan.

[ REVIEW ] VT COSMETICS CICA REDNESS SPOT CONCEALER

Yahalloo!!!

Let’s getting back in touch with one of my favorite Korean skincare brands, VT Cosmetics. I have already reviewed several products of VT Cosmetics, just find them out on tags or simply click here. If you read my previous reviews, you probably know the reason why I love VT Cosmetics is because I got amazing experiences with their produts, and hence I want to explore this brand more and more. So, I hand-picked another product, which is Cica Redness Spot Concealer.

I’m actually not a big fan of concealer on my makeup routine. I’m a person who tends to choose a high coverage foundie for my full makeup look or just leave the flaws on my face as they are by applying a light tinted moisturizer for a daily look. Yet, since this concealer is on VT’s Cica series, which gave great results based on the other 2 products I tried before, so why not give it a try?

Well, wait no more, I'll let you jump right into the full review below!

[ REVIEW ] DR.JART+ CICAPAIR NIGHT RE.PAIR

Yahalloo!!!

Let’s do another quick review today!

Jadi produk ini sebenarnya sudah aku coba beberapa waktu yang lalu, tapi baru sekarang sempat bagiin review-nya. Nah, supaya kalian enggak baca terlalu panjang (lagian stok potonya juga dikit, wkwkwk), langsung saja kita mulai mengulas Dr. Jart+ Cicapair Night Re.Pair!

[ REVIEW ] FORENCOS TATTOO CLAIR VELVET TINT – #15 COY

Yahalloo!!!

Aku sudah review dua produk Forencos lain di postingan sebelumnya. Ada Forencos Tattoo Allproof Eyeliner dan Forencos Soak Tattoo Tint (please, klik link-nya kalau kalian belum baca). Dua produk Forencos yang aku coba lebih dulu berhasil meninggalkan impression yang oke buatku, jadi enggak berlebihan kalau aku berharap produk kali ini akan sama bagusnya, atau malah lebih bagus.

Kalau dibandingkan sama Soak Tattoo Tint, kayaknya produk ini lebih populer, yaa memang lebih dulu rilis, sih. Lip tint ini punya banyak banget shade, dan semuanya cakep-cakep, seriously. Punyaku adalah shade nomor 15 namanya Coy. Anyway, here we go reviewing Forencos Tattoo Clair Velvet Tint!

[ REVIEW ] FORENCOS SOAK TATTOO TINT

 

Yahallo!!!

I have written a review on one of the Forencos products, which is Tattoo Allproof Eyeliner (please click to read the review), and today I’m back with another review of their lip product, the Soak Tattoo Tint!

Since I’m kinda satisfied with their eyeliner, so I had a high expectation on this lip product. You know, their lip products are quite popular and even went viral on social medias, like Instagram and TikTok. I found many reviewers claimed that Forencos lip products are amazing, both for the staying power and shades. It made me so curious to try the product on my own hand.

I actually got two of their lip products, the Velvet Tint and this one, the Soak Tatto Tint. However, since I love the Soak Tattoo Tint’s packaging more than its sister, so I decided to review it first. Well, packaging simply has had a huge impact on me, and I'm sure, some people do too hehe...

So, without any further ado, let’s start the review!

[ REVIEW ] SULWHASOO – FIRST CARE ACTIVATING MASK

Hello!

It's been a while since the last review I wrote on this blog. And now I'm back with a review of a sheet mask from Sulwhasoo!

The interesting claim from this Sulwhasoo First Care Activating Mask is about the JAUM Balancing Complex™, which is designed to improve skin balance. I guess I need to try this formula since I have an oily-combi skin. I have very dry patches on cheek area but my T-zone is very oily. Yes, I need to balance it, right?

They also claim the essence of this mask was made by precious Korean herbal ingredients, and we all know that mostly Korean herbal products work very very well. But, is that true? Do not waste our time and let’s find out if I agree with those reviewers who give it a high score, or otherwise?

[ REVIEW ] ETUDE HOUSE – UV DOUBLE CUT CLEAR SUN STICK SPF 50+ PA++++

Sun screen seems to be one of the most important thing in our morning and day skin regime. But the common problems I, mostly, faced with every sun screen I’ve tried are the white cast and skin irritation, if the product couldn’t have a nice relationship with my sensitive skin.

To be honest, I eliminated all sun-face-care products that contain of high Titanium Dioxide because it tends to, or absolutely will, leave whitecast. I want to avoid that. I also opt to avoid every products which have high alcohol in their ingredients list. I know, I sound too picky but I really want a friendly product for my sensitive skin, though. So yeah, I paid the Etude House Clear Sun Stick as it seemed to be the best choice, especially when I read the ingredients. I have a high expectation from this product, so let’s see!

[ REVIEW ] FORENCOS TATTOO ALLPROOF EYELINER – 01 REAL BLACK

Lama banget enggak nge-post review makeup, nih. Jadi kali ini aku akan share pengalamanku menggunakan salah satu produk eye makeup dari brand Korea, yaitu Forencos. Nama produknya sendiri adalah Tattoo Allproof Eyeliner.

Sebenarnya akhir-akhir ini aku merasa brand luar negeri (entah itu Korea atau western) mulai sedikit tergeser sama brand lokal, iya nggak sih? Tapi memang enggak heran juga, kalau produk buatan negeri sendiri jadi hype banget, karena kualitasnya semakin bisa bersaing dengan produk luar negeri, baik itu produk skincare maupun makeup. Hmm, out of the topic jadinya kalau keterusan ngebahas produk lokal, haha.

[ REVIEW ] PAUL & JOE BEAUTE – TREATMENT LIPSTICK

If I should choose two things I love most in this world, I will go to makeup and cats. So, when found a makeup in a cat shape, of course, I bought it without thought bla bla bla. Thanks to Paul & Joe Beaute for making such a super cute beauty product, hhaha. But, by the way, do you know Paul & Joe? Most of us may know this is a fashion brand but actually this brand has beauty line (skincare and makeup) too, known as Paul & Joe Beaute.

Anyway, today I will give you my review of Paul & Joe Beaute Treatment Lipstick, which has a purr-fect and cute cat shape on its tip. This product was launched for 2017 Autumn Creation (on August 1st, last year), together with the Pearl Lipstick. And for your information, the lipstick itself (called “refill”) and the lipstick case are sold separately. Honestly, that’s a little bit stingy in my opinion, hhaha. But since the cat lipstick is too adorable to be rejected, I can forgive it. And the pretty blue-white case that I bought was newly released last autumn too. Fret not, let’s jump to the review and find out how this cutie cat works!

[ REVIEW ] MOONSHOT – MICRO CORRECFIT CUSHION SPF 50+ PA+++ #301 Honey

I believe many of us agree that Moonshot got more and more popular lately because they have Lisa of Blackpink as their brand’s face, right? And I will not lie that Lisa is the biggest reason why I purchased this cushion. Aside from that, a pretty packaging, of couse, is another thing that had me spent my money for this brand.

However, it’s interesting to try this cushion as it was one of the most hype products among beauty influencers lately. Apart from the brand ambassador and the packaging, I was curious why this cushion being so popular. Is the quality that good? Or is it just because of Lisa on its commercial? Well, let’s see.

[ REVIEW ] VT COSMETICS - CICA REDNESS COVER CUSHION #23 NATURAL BEIGE

 

I started to be a big fan of VT Cosmetics since I tried their foundation, the VT X BTS Black Collagen Pact. I was attracted to try more, especially their base makeup. And one product that I kept eyeing was their Cica Redness Cover Cushion (seriously, I was like seeing my bias photo everytime I saw this product on my IG’s feeds, lol). And I finally got my cushion about a month ago, so I think I am good enough to write this review for you. They have 3 shades for this cushion and I purchased the darkest one, number 23 (Natural Beige). The others are number 13 (Vanilla Beige) and 21 (Light Beige).

Ah, in case you haven’t known yet, VT Cosmetics launched Cica X Care line in the midle of 2018. This line consists of skincare and makeup products that have Tiger Grass (Centella Asiatica) as their main ingredients. You know, this substant is very popular recently as it is able to treat acne and sensitive skin very well.

Aside from the main ingredient that would be perfect for my sensitive and acne prone skin, there was also another thing that intrigued me to try this cushion. A thing that makes this cushion looks very unique. What’s that? Mmm, keep reading please!

[ REVIEW ] RYO – JAYANGYUNMO ANTI-HAIR LOSS SHAMPOO (FOR OILY SCALP)

Recently I have been using this product almost two months and I think I am good enough to write this review. If you remember my review of Ryo Jayangyunmo Anti Hair Loss Nutritive Treatment, then this is another product from the same line, it is Ryo Jayangyunmo Anti Hair Loss Shampoo. I bought this as a bundle when I repurchased the conditioner, this was a good deal from the seller.

Ryo has some variants of Jayangyunmo Anti Hair Loss Shampoo to treat different scalp type; Normal-Dry Scalp, Oily Scalp and Sensitive Scalp. I was confused whether I should pick the oily or the sensitive one, but I ended up with the oily scalp shampoo hhaha. As I get very good result from the conditioner, I expected this product would give a good result as well. Maybe when both of these products work together, they will give better result, right? Well, let’s see!

[ REVIEW ] RYO – JAYANGYUNMO ANTI-HAIR LOSS NUTRITIVE TREATMENT

Hair fall is a serious problem for me, or if not sound too much, it is very extremely serious problem. My real bad dream is when I woke up in the morning and found dozens of hairs fell on my pillow T.T And I have been suffering from this problem about a year lately. Before going too bad, so I looked for powerful and great products to resolve my problem. It brought me to a Korean hair care brand, Ryo (part of AmorePacific group).

I firstly knew the brand when I watched K-Drama, Doctors, in 2016. It was shown on the drama and as guessed, the lead role actress (Park Shin Hye) is the brand ambassador of Ryo. And I was interested with the claim said it is number 1 Korean hair care brand. So I had a high expectation with this brand. I bought Ryo Jayangyunmo Anti-Hair Loss Nutritive Treatment for my first product from the brand. This is the newest version from their original Jayangyunmo Anti-Hair Loss Treatment.

This is my second tube after few months using it. So, it could be guessed that I really like this product, right? But why do I like it so much? Is this product truly worth it? Let's find the reasons out!

[ REVIEW ] SKINFOOD – TEA TREE SECRET SPOT PATCH

When my favorite acne patch was run out and it was also sold out everywhere, finally I had to move forward to another brand. I actually did not search any reviews on internet though I’m not that experienced with acne patch products. Just by seeing this product was ready on my favorite online shop, I immediately ordered it. I chose Skinfood Tea Tree Secret Spot Patch because it contains tea tree leaf oil which I believe, is a good ingredient to beat blemishes effectively as it contains strong antibacterial and antifungal compounds.

I rarely use Skinfood skincare products, I usually buy only their makeup line, but since this brand is well-known for their natural and great formula, so I expected this product would give a good result for my acne prone skin.

[ REVIEW ] KOJI DOLLY WINK EYELASHES #10 – SWEET CAT

False eyelashes, the key to get popping up and adorable eye look. I guess many people agree with that, right? But some of us may struggle so hard to put false eyelashes on. Well, I have had that experience too long time ago. Sometimes, the falsies look so weird and unnatural on my eyes. Sometimes, they didn’t stay on all day *sigh...

My first false lashes were from Etude House, but they were too stiff for beginner like me. Hence I felt awkward and failed many times to put them on. But after finding out this brand, I really love and enjoy wearing false eyelashes on my makeup routine. Can you guess the brand? (it’s already written on the title, LOL). It’s Dolly Wink, my favorite brand from Japan which is produced by Tsubasa Masuwaka. Since I love Dolly Wink’s products, so I had no doubt to try their falsies.

[ REVIEW ] OMNISKIN CICA BHA AMINO ACID FOAMING WASH UNTUK KULIT BERMINYAK, BERJERAWAT DAN SENSITIF

Sejak Centella Asiatica atau panggilan sayangnya, Cica, menjadi salah satu primadona di dunia skincare, aku jadi hobi banget nyobain berbagai produk yang nge-highlight bahan ini sebagai key ingredients-nya. Pasalnya, Cica memang punya manfaat yang bagus banget untuk kulit yang berminyak dan berjerawat. Once more, produk berbahan Cica juga ramah untuk kulit sensitif seperti kulitku.

Nah, dari awal launching, Omniskin adalah brand lokal yang sudah aku lirik dan masuk ke wishlist-ku karena mereka punya Cica Series yang komplit banget. Mulai dari cleanser, toner, serum, UV cream, moisturizer, sampai 6 in 1 Blemish Serum. Plus, produk Omniskin dikenal bersahabat, sudah mengantongi izin BPOM, aman dan bahkan bisa digunakan untuk siapapun mulai umur 12 tahun lho!

Selain Cica Series, Omniskin juga punya Watermelon Series. Secara pengemasan dan konsep, produk-produk Omniskin memang tempting banget untuk dicobain. Tapi, sesuai kebutuhan kulitku saat ini, aku akan coba salah satu produk dari Cica Series.

[ REVIEW ] DERMEVA ANTI AGING CREAM – KULIT AWET MUDA HANYA DENGAN SATU LANGKAH

Siapa nih, yang masih suka mager pakai skincare?

Fyi, jika kalian sudah 25 tahun, pemakaian skincare dengan manfaat anti aging atau anti penuaan sudah harus kita mulai, lho. Karena memasuki usia 25 tahun, produksi kolagen di dalam kulit kita mulai berkurang. Jika tidak dirawat dengan baik, hal ini dapat mempercepat proses penuaan kulit yang membuat kulit tampak kendur, keriput bahkan flek bermunculan. Jadi jangan menunggu sampai penuaan kulit terjadi, sebaliknya mencegahnya itu lebih baik. Sebab itulah penggunaan skincare anti aging penting dilakukan sejak dini.

Jujur sih, aku dulu sempat berpikir kalau skincare anti aging baru bisa dipakai saat kita masuk usia 40-an.  Duh, itu sih telat banget! Untungnya, aku rajin baca-baca artikel sehingga akhirnya ngeh kalau skincare anti aging sudah harus mulai digunakan saat memasuki usia 25 tahun. Biar enggak terjadi penuaan dini.

[ REVIEW ] SCARLETT WHITENING – BRIGHTLY EVER AFTER SERIES (FACIAL WASH, SERUM, DAY CREAM & NIGHT CREAM)

 

Hello, fellas!!!

Setelah lama enggak review skincare, kali ini aku balik lagi dengan produk #LocalPrideIndonesia yang, aku 100% yakin, kalian udah pada kenal. Yasss, it’s SCARLETT WHITENING by Felicya Angelista.

Sebelumnya, brand Scarlett booming banget dengan produk perawatan tubuh mereka (akan aku review juga, nih. Ditunggu ya ^^). Finally, Scarlett melebarkan sayapnya ke face care juga dong! Ada 2 series yang dikeluarkan Scarlett untuk face care products mereka, yaitu Acne (untuk kulit berjerawat) yang kemasan ungu dan Brightly Ever After (untuk mencerahkan) yang kemasannya warna pink.

Active ingredients dari dua seri ini berbeda, ya, sesuai dengan fungsi utama masing-masing seri. Jujur nih, kalau mau maruk, aku pengen coba dua-duanya. Hahaha. Karena baik yang Acne atau Brightly Ever After, mengandung bahan-bahan favoritku. Tapi berhubung aku lagi enggak berjerawat, jadi aku memutuskan untuk cobain seri Brightly Ever After.

Scroll ke bawah pelan-pelan, yaaa. Karena review-nya bakal lengkap banget mulai dari facial wash, serum, day dan night cream!

[ REVIEW ] APIEU HAIR LAUNDRY TISSUE – SOLUSI RAMBUT LEPEK, ANTI RIBET!

 

Siapa nih yang rambutnya gampang lepek tapi mager buat sering-sering keramas?

Hayooo... kalau kalian kayak gitu, artinya kita se-frekuensi! Ahaha.

 

Sebenernya aku sering dilema kalau cuaca lagi panas yang ujung-ujungnya bikin kulit kepala jadi lebih mudah berminyak. Pasti ngefeknya ke rambut yang jadi cepet lepek. Mau keramas tiap hari, malah bikin rambut jadi tambah kering. Mau dibiarin, tapi penampilan jadi mirip gembel. Mau keramas pas pulang ngantor, tapi mager. Mau keramas pagi sebelum ngantor, eh, bangunnya kesiangan! Wkwkwk, hidupku mah sesulit itu >_<

Pada akhirnya produk dry shampoo jadi pilihanku. Itu loh yang disemprot ke rambut, produk yang keluar macam bedak putih-putih gitu, terus diratakan biar serbuknya enggak kelihatan aneh di kepala. Sayangnya, kalau lagi enggak ada kaca atau pas lagi buru-buru banget dan di tempat yang rame, dry shampoo kadang bisa bikin ribet juga. Kalau ngeratainnya nggak bener, serbuk putih-putih dari dry shampoo malah jadi kayak ketombe, sis!

Untungnya pas iseng jalan-jalan virtual di shopee, aku nemu produk yang auto bikin aku buru-buru checkout (lumayan lah, pas promo freeong juga, ahaha). Iyes, ini produk semacam dry shampoo tapi bentuknya tissue gitu. Namanya Hair Laundry Tissue dari brand Korea, APIEU.

[ REVIEW ] VT COSMETICS - CICA SUN SPRAY SPF 50+/PA+++

After trying out the Collagen Pact and Cica Redness Cover Cushion from VT Cosmetics, and got superb great result from them, I became greedier to try other products from this brand. So, when I saw VT Cosmetics held a sale event for their Cica line, I immediately purchased this product (it was almost 50% off, haha).

This is VT Cica Sun Spray SPF 50+ / PA+++ (it is actually my first sun spray product, lol). I do not use facial sun care diligently since I am lazy, haha (do not try this at home). Moreover, most of my foundie and cushion have high SPF content, so I think that’s enough to protect my face because I mostly stay indoors. But… since my beloved Cica Redness Cover Cushion doesn’t contain sun protector, so I think I am not allowed to skip sun care anymore.

This sun spray is a part of Cica Line from VT Cosmetics. And due to the awesome result I got from the cushion, I hope this product give satisfying result on me, as awesome as its sister. Well, let’s see!
