LIQUID or SPRAY ??

Okay first, these products have the same purpose, but which one you guys prefer?

CREAM

PROS :

- The same price but a bottle can last much longer

- U can really feel the texture when u apply it, means less missing part

CONS :

- Takes longer time to apply

- Sticky

- 'Heavy" feeling than the spray one

SPRAY

PROS :

- It is so easy to use!

- Very light feeling

- No residue

CONS :

- It just up to ten usage! (If you use from head to toe).

- Because it's very light, sometimes when i spray it on the open air, i find it kinda gone with the wind. (sounds silly ;p but it's true!) 

LIQUID
PROS :
- It works super fast! mine always dry after less than 10 seconds of application. Magic!
- Provides extra shine
- And also makes your manicure lasts longer.

SPRAY
PROS :
- It faster because we just need to spray it all over the nails after top coat.
CONS :
- I hope it works, but it doesn't really help since i got the nail polish one! :)


So, which one is your favourite?

Non Waterproof into Waterproof??

Why not?? :P

From now on, you can use your non waterproof makeup with no worries!

Aqua Seal instantly converts your favorite makeup products into waterproof formulas. Its lightweight, liquid texture intensifies pigments and shimmer for a dramatic, long lasting result. I always mix one to two drops aqua seal with my non-waterproof pencil eyeliner. Because it's alcohol free, i even can put it on my eyes area.

Can Celebs Make Scents?

They just keep on coming, so this week let's take a look at the latest celebrity fragrances to hit the shelves..

AMY CHILDS BY AMY CHILDS

This comes in a cute little bottle and, probably best suited to a younger teenage girl- or any avid Amy fan, of course. The fragrance is OK, but it lacks that real 'wow' factor.

FAME BY LADY GAGA

I'm not sure a celebrity fragrance has ever received so musch hype as Gaga' fame! Is i because the scents looks black, but spray clear? Maybe. Or is it just because, well, it's Lady Gaga? That. too. And after a rumours spread over the internet about it smelling like blood and semen, you'll be pleased to hear it doesn't! It's definitely richer and sexier than your average celebrity scent and bound to fly off the shelves, so best get your orders in now.

WONDERSTRUCK BY TAYLOR SWIFT

Taylor's first fragrance is all about her favourite memories and scents. Not only did she hand-pick the charms around the neck of the bottle, but the embossed cap also reflects her clothes and home. One for all you hippy chicks out there, it's a fruity number that includes juicy notes like raspberry, apple blossom and peach

GLOWING BY J.LO

Ms. Lopez's fragrances are often rather nice and this is my favourite so far. As well as being totally sucked in by the bottle (it lights up), the juice is creamy, warm and smells quite expensive. Three things i love in a fragrance.

GIRLFRIEND BY JUSTIN BIEBER

In the words of Justin, this is a 'more mature version of someday', his debut fragrance from last year. It's rather sweet, sugary number, however, so it'll be most popular with girls under the age of 16. We love the crazy packaging though. =)

When to toss your makeup??

We all know to toss sticky lip gloss and dried out mascara, but how can you tell if your makeup has just expired? 

 

Moisturizer

Face cream can lose its freshness after six months. Make sure to seal correctly to make it last longer and avoid bacteria buildup.

Nail Polish

While technically your favorite bottle lasts only one year, the real test is a simple shake. If color separated even after a quick rattle, toss it.

Lipstick

Give the tube a quick sniff. You will be able to smell if it's gone sour, which usually is after three years. Lipgloss can turn after about a year and will become sticky in texture.

Mascara

Fortunately it's very obvious if your mascara has gone bad. If the dried up liquid becomes dry, clumpy, and hard to apply, just toss it! Plus, old mascara can contain unhealthy bacteria, so ditch the tube when the liquid become pasty-usually after three months.

Perfume

So happy to know that your favorite fragrance will usually last up to eight years after it has been opened. You can keep it smelling fresh even longer by store it in the fridge! Oxidation-the process that changes a scent-happens quicker in warm environments.

Brushes

It's simple to tell when your brushes are ready to be dumped. Just eyeball them. If the bristles are pinched, frayed, or falling out, it's time to invest in a new brush.

Sunscreen

Usually they have expiration dates on tubes, which is typically one to two years. So don't start hoarding in the summer. Just buy as needed.

Deep Cleansing Oil

The reason why girl sometimes sleep with make up on?

Because they were too lazy to do a few steps of cleansing makeup! But now, you can just keep this on your make up case, because this little things can do a lot of work!

Dirt, excess oil, makeup—even waterproof mascara—and other pore-cloggers dissolve easily, leaving your face a grime-free zone that is soft to the touch. Its unique water-soluble formula rinses completely, so you’ll never see a greasy residue.

Here are my favorite :

DHC Deep Cleansing Oil

This is DHC’s iconic product. They say its made with olive oil and vitamin E to help ensure you won’t see dryness either. and that one is sold every minute world wide.

Bobbi Brown Deep Cleansing Oil

 the Bobbi Brown cleansing oil is mineral oil free and has a very light viscous texture with a light pleasant scent. It cleans my skin well and my skin felt quite nice.

If you have tried this two, which one you think works better?

Beer-Infused Shampoo?

Most of us already know that beer have some positive effects for your strands. Cleansing with beer can actually add body to your hair. As we've seen in the many ways it is believed beer can help your hair, there are special components within beer- including B vitamins, wheat proteins, and maltose sugars- that make drinking a bottle less useful than pouring it on your head. The complex carbohydrates in beer have a hydrating effect, while the malt and hops coat each strand, giving them more strength and elasticity. Not only does hair appear shinier in the short term, but it also becomes stronger to avoid long-term breakage.

But instead of causing such a mess and odor while using beer and shampoo separately, try Lush's Cynthia Sylvia Stout ($30 Lushusa.com)

or

BROO's Citrus Pale Ale Shampoo ($15; Amazon.com)

What do you think about beer shampoo? Would you try one?

Packing Makeup For Trip

Hi everyone :)

Okay, so just let you guys know, now i'm currently in Hongkong for that Makeup Forever Academy things. But actually i don't  have visa for staying here. I'm just using my tourist visa, and as you know, Hongkong tourist visa is not required for citizens of Indonesia for stay up to 30 days. So, i just decided to stay in guangzhou for like 3 days, meet my friends and then come back here again. Gonna do that every month :) . So i'm gonna pack up first and bring a few things along with me.

Shills Caribbean Ice UV Spray. The weather there is unbelievable HOT ! It can reach 40-44C in august. So this spray is soo life saver for me. This does feel cool and has a lemon fragrance. It goes on white though, so you have to rub it in until the colour is gone. This spray doesn't feel too sticky and oily once dried. So it's still pretty good.

Make Up Forever HD Primer #5 is a must for you who like wearing makeup. Not only making makeup last longer, primer also makes a barrier between your skin and makeup which will protect your skin from the harsh of makeup.

Make Up Forever Loose Powder. I prefer wearing loose powder than the compact one, so that your face still can breathing.

Clinique Colour Surge Eyeshadow. For daily makeup, i prefer the simple and natural one. Also it's so small! So efficient.

Make Up Forever Liner in purple. Umm., it's just because i got boring with the black one ;)

Majolica Majorca Mascara. I won't dare to bring non waterproof one! it's extremely humid there.

and last,

Shu Uemura Eyelash Curler. It's the best curler for me.It holds curl all day long, gives pretty curl and doesn't break my eyelashes like the other one did!

Kiehl's Lip Balm has SPF in there so use this first before applying my Estee Lauder Lipgloss #5. And the Make Up Forever Lipstick Pallete ? I'm just bringing it if i get bored with colour :p

Yes, it's all small packaging! I don't need a lot of product just for 3 days, right? ;)

My face is normal combination and dry at some spots, So i'm bringing my Kiehl's Ultra Facial Wash, Facial Toner and Facial Cream. I need gentle product to go along with mine. I also bringing the Kiehl's Serum. For eyes, i put the Lancome Genifique Eye Concentrate before my Khiel's Avocado Eye Cream. It makes my eye cream absorbs really well. After, I put Clinique Dramatically Different Moisturizing Lotion at the dry spots, and cover up my face with Clinique Moisture Surge (Best Seller), this locks the moisture in and keep it hydrated.

And last, i'm using Neutrogena Hand Cream to put at night and wake up with a softer hands , Victoria Secret Bombshell Body Mist to give you a fresh feeling after shower, and Chanel Mademoiselle Perfume, my fave one.

And also, just the simple brush for applying makeup. :)

That's the way i pack my things. Does Anyone do the same way like i did?
