My Current MAC Lipstick Collection


Hello, welcome to my blog.For today's post I'm doing the MAC lipstick collection.I'm gonna be honest with you guys, I'm not trying to show off or bragging anybody who's reading my post to buy all this product.This is just my collection and all the products I buy it with my own money and one of the lipstick is actually given by my mom.I hope you enjoy the post.

1.Saigon Summer - Cremesheen



I bought this lipstick a week ago and I adore it so much.This is an orange/coral lipstick and it looks super glamours when you use a tiny bit of clear lipgloss.I completely recommend this lipstick for spring/summer next year.It doesn't feel dry in the lips and it last for 6-12 hours.

2.Mocha - Satin





Mocha is my all tin favorite lipstick from MAC.This lipstick is super moisturizing in my lips and last for a day.Mocha is perfect for Autumn/Fall and I have use it every time I wear my makeup since a couple weeks ago.I have a full post about this lipstick and if you want to read more good things about this lipstick, Click Here.

3.Tumble Dry - Lustre



I'm so excited when I saw the "Wash & Dry Collection" and in my last summer holiday, I grab this lipstick.I'm gonna be honest with you, the case looking abseloutly gorgeous but the inside is not good as the outside.When I tried l this lipstick in the MAC shop, it does feel nourishing but when I try it at home it doesn't look like that.This lipstick is super dry and I'm not a big fan of this lipstick.

4.Saint Germain - Amplified



My mom actually given this lipstick to me and because my mom is so pale, this shade is not match with me.I have use it once and I look hilarious.This shade is perfect for pale skin but this lipstick actually so moisturizing.It doesn't feel dry at all and I love it.I wish I have the perfect shade for me.One of the million things I love about MAC is there makeup is such an amazing quality so they last so long.

Let's Visit: Union

Hello guys, welcome to my blog.For today's post, I'm going to share my favorite resturant that I like to eat with my friends when we hang out together.I hope you like it.




As you probably know, I'm in love with Union because of the food quality, food presentation and the lighting is gorgeous.There're three place Union in Jakarta, and I have visited Union in Plaza Senaya for two times, Union Deli in Grand Indonesia for also two times.I think I like Plaza Senayan more then Grand Indonesia because in Senayan is a lot bigger then in Grand Indonesia.Whenever I visit Union, I'll order an "Banana Peanut Butter Smothies" the first picture and the second one is "Iced Mochaccino" in the second picture.They're both taste so good and I totally recommend it for you.


My mom always order "Onion Ring" in Union because it's so crunchy and they have the best dipping sauce for Onion Ring.



For the main dishes, I always order "Pan Seared Barramundi with XO Sauce" because it's so good.I love every thing in this dish because it's so pretty to look and it tastes like heaven.It doesn't taste fishy at all and it's so good, gosh!


Dessert is my favorite type of food and I think Union is the best place for having a good dessert.I love Ovomaltine so bad because it's the best spread for breakfast and I'm obsess with Pannacotta because it's so creamy.When I heard Union make an "Ovomaltine Pannacotta" I'm like the happiest girl ever.I enjoy every bite of this Pannacotta and I feel very hungry right now...


My second favorite dessert is "Red Velvet Pie".Red Velvet Cake from Union is actually very famous and when they make this pie, gosh it tastes like heaven.I love it so bad and the cream cheese is so good.It melts in your mouth and the pie is so gorgeous.


I think Union is a perfect place for eat and hang out with your friends because it's so comfortable and if you like dessert as much as I do and you lived in Jakarta or Asia, definitely try to visit Union or Union Deli because it's amazing.I know that Union does cost a lot of money, but I think is worth it for an amazing experience for the food, service, place, and location.

I hope you get some inspiration for visiting Union or probably visit Jakarta for your next holiday.I also feel great fun because I can met my old friend again in Union.Thank you so  much for reading my post.I hope you like it and don't forget to leave a comment down bellow so I know what do you think about my post.Bye, x   .

Favorite Face Mask | Beauty

Hello, welcome to my blog.For today's blog, I'm going to share my all time favorite face masks and also this is a collaboration with the gorgeous Romantiquely.You should definitely check her post out and I hope you enjoy my post.



The first mask is quite new for me but I love the formula is "Sephora Face Mask".When I bought this last Saturday, there's a buy 1 get 1 free promo for the Honey and Lingzhi mask.I have tried the Honey and I love it.It's so moisturizing and my skin feel so soft.The packaging wasn't the best but I think for S$4 it's totally fine.The Lingzhi mask is actually for Anti-wrinkle and smoothing so it's not for me.


The last one is my all time favorite face mask is "Lush Cosmetic Warrior".It's so good and I totally recommend this mask if you have a problem with spots or Oily skin.This mask contains garlic and tea tree oil which is very natural and organic.This is actually my second purchase because I love it and this mask cost S$26 which pretty pricey for a mask but because it's organic, I think not that expensive.You just need to apply this mask with your hand, then leave it for about 10 minutes.After that clean it with a warm water.Not that complicated right?

Thank you so much for reading my post.I hope you like it and don't forget to leave a comment down bellow so I know what do you think about my post.Oh, and also don't forget to check Romantiquely Post because it's amazing and I'll see you again (next week? next month?) I don't know.Bye, x

Autumn/Fall Makeup Routine | Beauty

         I'm Hello! Welcome to my blog.So I'm so sorry for not posting anything lately and I'll try my best to upload 2 new post this week.For today's post, I want to share with you guys what makeup products that I used for the last couple weeks.Btw, I don't use makeup every single day so I hope you enjoy it.


1.Base/Face Makeup

         Okay, for the base or face makeup I always make sure that the products are good for my skin.I know that my makeup products are quite expensive but it's the way my face like it.For primer, I use the "Maybelline Baby Skin" because it's cheap and it does give a smooth effect to my skin.
          Concealer is such a must have for me because I need to cover my dark circles and my spot of the day, For that I need a high quality product and I use my trusty "Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer".I have heard a lot people talk about amazing things about this product and I completely agree with it.It covers my spot nicely and it doesn't crease at all.
          I don't like using BB Cream at the moment so I use my "Nars Radiant Tinted Moisturizer".I recently picked this product and I love it.You just need a little squish and it covers all your face.
          To set all of the face makeup, I use my "Maybelline White Superfresh Powder".Love this product so much because it's very light but it sets all your makeup in place for 12 hours.



2.Bronzer

I always use bronzer every time I put my makeup on because bronzer always give a healthier looking to my face.Recently, I picked "Essence Sun Club Shimmer Bronzing Powder" because it seems very good and I completely agree.I used in the darker skin so I can have the contouring effect? I don't know, but I like this product a lot.



3.Eyes Makeup

         Usually I never want to use eyeshadow for my daily makeup but don't know why I love using "NYX Jumbo Eye Pencil in Cottage Cheese".I suppose to grab the "Milk" one but oh well it's the same color but this one has a shimmer in it.
         Filling eyebrows are so important for me and recently I used "Maybelline Fashion Brow in Brown".Fashion brow is a duo brow pencil, the left side is a powder (fill your eyebrows) and the right one is a pencil (shape your eyebrows).It's super easy to use and I love it.
         I have heard a lot amazing reviews from Youtuber like Zoella talked about this mascara, and I finally have it.It's "Maybelline Lash Sensational Mascara".I completely agree with Zoe because it's amazing and you don't need to apply to much product to your lashes because two layers of this mascara is enough.


4.Lipstick

Yes, I have a full post of my favorite lipstick for this season and it's from MAC.I'll put the link in Here so you can see how gorgeous this lipstick.

Thank you so much for reading my post.I hope you like it and leave a comment down below so I know what do you think about my post.Oh and this Tuesday, I'll do a collaboration with a gorgeous blogger so stay tuned.Bye, x

MAC Lipstick | Beauty



Hello guys, welcome to my blog.Sorry, for not post anything this week, I promise that next week I'll do more blog.For today's blog, I'm gonna do a quick review about my new MAC lipstick purchase.I hope you enjoy my blog! x




Recently, I saved up some money to buy a MAC lipstick and earlier today, I finally bought a new MAC lipstick.When I went to the MAC store, I straight looked to the satin and frost section because usually they have a great "cherry" shade lipstick, and then I found a lovely shade called "Taupe" but the stock is out so I search another dark/brown color and finally I found "Mocha".



The color is absolutely gorgeous and the quality is amazing.I like this color because it have a red effects and more brown color which is a good combination.This is such a perfect color for fall/winter time and I can't wait to wear it that time in the year.


So I hope you enjoy today's blog! Don't forget to comment so I know what I have to improve and your suggestion about my other blog! Bye, x

Singapore Haul


Hello guys, welcome to my blog.So for today's blog, I'm going to do a haul.I went to Singapore for  my Summer Holiday 2015 and also I have tried "Indoor Skydiving" which is really good and I already tried what it feels like flying, but I also do shopping and eating.I hope you enjoy this blog.

1.Urban Decay Naked Flushed 


I'm so lucky to own this palette because a lot youtubers and bloggers own this product.I bought this palette in the shade "Streak" because it suit with my skin tone better than the other shade.I absolutely adore all the products in here, but my favorite is the highlighter because it gives a natural glow effect to my skin.This product cost S$48.

2.MAC Lipstick from Wash & Dry Collection 


When I saw the first campaign, I knew that I want it.I was really happy when I found this lipstick because at the moment MAC already have a new campaign for their new eyeshadow.I bought the lipstick in the shade "Tumble Dry".It's a orange lipstick color but when you apply it to your lips, it's more like your own lip color but give a shine (I'm so bad at describe things).This lipstick cost S$32.Click here for more information 

3.Chanel Mascara


I save up some money to buy Chanel beauty products and I finally have the mascara.I bought the waterproof and voluminazing mascara because it summer and you don't want to touch up your makeup through up the day.It's such a gorgeous mascara and I already try it today it does the job very good.This mascara cost S$52.

4.Lush Bath Bombs


I love Lush Cosmetics so much.I bought their 2 bath bomb.The first one is "Big Blue" which smell like ocean and it's perfect when you want to relax in your bath, and the second one is "Sex Bomb", who doesn't like this scent? I love it so much because it smells flowery and relaxing especially in Summer.

5.Lush Facial Mask 



The lady in Lush cosmetic recommend a facial mask for me and she said what type of skin you have it and I said oily.She recommend "Cosmetic Warrior" mask for me because it combat spots and all the ingredients are 100% organic which is super good for oily skin because we can't use too much chemical products.I seriously recommend this mask for you who have oily skin problems.This facial mask cost S$26.

6.Maybeline Baby Skin Primer



I want to try this product for a long time ago but I can't find it in Jakarta.I love the consistency of this product a lot and also this primer to the job very quick.It's a clear liquid or gel and it's going to change to your same skin color (Once again, I'm not good at describing).But it does the job so good, I think is a drugstore product of The Porefessional.This primer cost S$21.

7.Garnier Makeup Remover 



So, I need new makeup remover and I bought this "Garnier Cleansing Wipes".I hope it does the job very good because it's very cheap.But I have heard some people talk about this cleansing wipes.Can't wait to try! Btw this makeup clearing wipes cost S$15

8.Chocolate


I love Cadbury chocolate in Singapore and all the Japanesse candy there, I think because there's more other variations and the price it absolutely cheaper than in Jakarta.My absolute favorite chocolate
is Cadbury Bubbly.It tastes like you're in chocolate heaven because the chocolate is super smooth.The others 2 I never tried before so I hope they taste as good as the Bubbly one.

9.Abercrombie High Neck Crop Tank


I love Abercrombie & Fitch clothes, store, and accessories.I don't know why, when I came to the store I feel like I'm in perfume heaven.I also love all the clothes because they have a simple and some of them have a clothes material I want to try.I have no idea why I bought this top, it's actually really cheap and I love the design.I think I will use this with high waisted jeans or shorts.This top cost S$16

10.Abercrombie Printed Drapey Skirt 


I'm such a fan of all type skirt.Most of my collection is tennis skirt, so I want to try something new.I love this skirt print and it looks very cute and unique too.I can't wait to use this skirt with white top or black tee? Haha I will experiment will all color.This skirt is in sale so is not really expensive.I think this skirt cost S$39.


I hope you enjoy today's blog and don't forget to leave a comment about the things you like me to do either activites or product I should review.Bye x

Summer Makeup Essentials | Collaboration


Hello guys, welcome to my blog.So for today's post, I'm going to share my "Summer Makeup Essentials".This post is a collaboration with the lovely Sarah Anne (I'll leave all her social media down bellow).I hope you enjoy my post and also don't forget to check her post too.Btw, I try to use more "drugstore" products more than the "Highend", So I hope you enjoy it.


Primer
In my opinion, Primer is the key to having a nice makeup skin.There's a lot brand and type of primer, but my favorite is "Baby Skin" by Maybeline.This primer cover all my pores and make my makeup stay all day.I love using this product.This primer goes well with all type of skin so I definitely recommend this product for you especially if you need to buy a new primer.


Concealer
So currently I tried not use any expensive makeup products, but it's definitely failed because most of my all time favorite makeup products are from "High End" brands.Then I find out that this concealer work with my skin as good as my "Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer".It's ''Paris True Match Conceler in Warm".I absolutely adore this product because it's really cheap, but it cover my blemishes or any problems in my face nicely.


Powder
I lived in "Tropical Country", that means most of the day is going to be a hot day.I don't like fixing my makeup through up the day, so I use more powder to my face.I already said that "I tried not using any high end products", so I used my "Maybeline White Superfresh Powder".I think this powder only sell in Asia Pacific or Idk haha, but the quality is amazing.I bought this almost a year ago, and I don't even know  that I bought the refill one not the actual powder.But oh well, the quality it just the same.This powder hold your makeup for 12 hours which is "So good".


Bronzer, Highliter, Blush
The only "Highend" beauty product I use for my makeup is "Urban Decay Naked Flushed in Streak".I love the quality of this product and all the colors is suit with my skin nicely.My all time favorite thing from this palette is the Highlighter because it gives a natural glow effect to my skin.


Mascara
You don't have to wear any eyeliner if you want a simple summer makeup because if you sweat it will gone pretty easy and it takes so long to make it perfect.I choose "Waterproof Mascara" instead of eyeliner or normal mascara.Waterproof mascara usually have a long brush that going to create a curler, longer, and thicker lashes which make your eye makeup look more simple.I chose "Miss Manga by Loreal Paris,because it gives you a gorgeous lashes and it stays all day.I already have a post talking about this gorgeous mascara.


Lipgloss 
For finishing the look, you need a great lip color.Instead using a lipstick, I prefer using a "Lipbalm" or "Lipgloss" because it gives a little glam to your makeup, and also it's good to protect your lip from dry lips.I got this Lipgloss from my friend Vanessia and I absolutely love it especially for spring and summer.

I hope you enjoy my post for today's.Don't forget to check Sarah Anne post and all her social media down bellow.Bye x
