I will be busy this month for annual meeting and presentation, of course with completing my job for financial statement of the year 2014. Phew! I haven't done December issue, with this first meeting of mine because it's been halted for two years before. Also, we will change the office address (Do you remember how awful this office building is? I haven't had air conditioner here for 4-5 months already) so it's time to move out next week, and we're still undone with packing. Uhm, I won't talk about my job anymore because it's back to review time!

Again, I bought purple lip product beside Innisfree Creammellow Lipstick. It's the new winter 2014 collection from Etude House, Sugar Tint Balm. I thought I wouldn't buy another lip product from Etude if it's not about lipbalm, because their lipstick tends to broke up. Usually, Etude's lipstick is very creamy and easy to break from it case. makes harder application. I've broke up my 3 bullets of Dear My Jelly Lips-talk and 1 bullet of Dear My Blooming Lips-talk. I never had those experience with another brand lipstick. The Sugar Tint Balm might be produced after Ice Tint Balm, sinced they have the same type of tint balm? Anyway, I thought it would be more like a balm, sheer and glossy, because I tend not to believe promotional picture, but it's wrong. I will review more of this product below.

Hello again! This is my second post in 2015. Though rather than posting here, I would prefer to post on my Wordpress about something I played. My Wordpress is like a coffin right now since it's rarely updated. This time, I will do review about Innisfree Creammellow Lipstick. This lipstick is my second time trying out their product. I'm very satisfied with Creamy Tint Lip Mousse (I made one post for my own lip products, of course it's still a few of them because added more to my collection), although I'm desperate to push my brain so I can use the lip mousse everyday despite its bold color. Well, I have changed from little girl, so I don't care wearing a bold red from my creamy tint lip mousse #3 & #5. Now, unto the review below!

Yay, it's my first post for new year 2015!! It's already 2015 and that's so fast. I didn't even feel 2014 exactly true that it's already ended. As some of you know, I'm translating manga on MangaLator as rinap. I had translated 4 chapters of Kuro Hakushaku wa Hoshi o Mederu for 2 days in a row! Wow it's tiresome job to do. I also played Drakengard (Drag-on Dragoon) 3 and already finished with Branch A in 2 days also. Did I ever mentioned in my Wordpress that I've played Drag-on Dragoon 2? Though I got the first ending A (it's where Eris became the seal) and too lazy to play the other ending! But I will definitely finish Drakengard 3 at least until Branch C (because I must complete gathering all weapons for Branch D and it's troublesome to get time to do that, as if I don't have to work)?

This post is about my order for Shiseido Ma Cherie Curl Set Lotion & Decoration Keep Spray. I love its moisture shampoo & conditioner, so definitely will love these two too. Actually, I got it on new year's eve because me and my sister were going around her supplier's restaurant & warehouse. We decided to take my order there, instead to wait until new year for the delivery. And I already tried it the next day. Of course with satisfied feelings.

Hello and Merry Christmas! It's a bit late to greet Christmas, but better than never. This was my second time going to Beauty Couture to buy Canmake product. But sadly, the number of product types still hasn't increasing up till now. Gosh, I'm still eye-ing Stay on Balm Rouge #5 Flowing Cherry Petal and Cream Cheek CL01 Clear Red Heart & CL06 Clear Peach Sugar. I might order it online if I can't wait anymore. Moreover, Beauty Couture sells Canmake is far from my home. Although Canmake ID promises they will be sold in more stores next year... I hope it will be available near my house! I bought Candy Wrap Lip again, now in 02 Navel Drop, and a nail polish which is Colorful Nails series in 33 Pink Glitter.

I bought another hair tools, which is Syoss Bouncy Whip from Curl Control range. It's because for natural, loose curl, I couldn't keep my hair for all day. With Glampalm GP225 AL, it's true it can hold rich curl for hours. But it's different when I wanted loose curl. For 15 minutes curling my hair, the curl will just stands for 20 minutes. What a waste! So, I need something to make it stand for a long time. I thought to buy Kao Liese Iron Make Collection Rich Curl because I read good reviews about it, but it's hard to find in my country (blame Indonesia again, for rarely using & distributed Asian products) and all of online shop is out of stock for this product. Oh well, I'm still waiting for Ma Cherie Curl Lotion & Decoration Keep Spray, so I thought to try another product.

Syoss is another haircare brand from Henkel, the same as Schwarzkopf. After trying Schwarzkopf extra care hair mask, I decided to try its product ranges. Well, I bought Schwarzkopf Ultimate Hair Repair (again, the one in black for moisturizing and repairing damaged hair) alongside Syoss, but I tried it first. There's sale in Lotte Mart supermarket for shampoo & conditioner package in 190ml size for just around USD 0.89 so I tried this version. Ehm, it's because I still have Ma Cherie & Tsubaki in my bathroom (both shampoo & conditioner) and I bought another pair. My sister must've been mad again if I bought larger size. Anyway, rather than Schwarzkopf, Syoss is cheaper. Not much, but yeah, it is. This is Syoss' website in English.

What I usually do near Christmas were always nothing special. Go to mall, hangout with friends, playing games, watching anime, drama, etc. I don't know what the differences between December and other months. But this month, I decided to do some quality time with my friends. Not about enjoying food, watching on cinema, but with producing new experience and knowledge. So, I decided to attend my middle school friend's musical. She always hangs out with me and the other friends from the same school twice or thrice every year, ever sinced she moved to another high school. We already became friends for over than 10 years already. But I never knew she went to a choir from a church. Yep, we are Catholic but never go to the same church.

Uh, it's my first branded iron. I had a straightener, a cheap one to be exact, and it wouldn't last for an hour effect. Twice or a few more, I never (won't) use it anymore. Now that I've worked, I need a better one. I also got tired of my (not) straight hair, which often waves a bit because of sleeping position or naughty hair. I wanted to try curling my hair, but not in permanent way, because I also love my straight hair. I had set an eye on BabyLiss Pro Miracurl Perfect Curl, will curling hair in just a few seconds without overly playing my hands. But many have said it would easily stuck hair inside the curling, this also well said by the clerk store I went to (Best Denki). I'm also afraid I can't styled the curl because it uses machine.


 So she told me to use Glampalm instead Miracurl. At first, she introduced me to price USD 85.33 which is good enough, I think. but after I asked if they have another great one, she introduced the 1" (inch) Pro GP225AL for around USD 187.43. Me and my sister were shocked by how it curled my hair with shine. My sister also needs that to straightening her wavy (messy) hair. More info about Glampalm, you can visit their website.

Have you remembered that I already write a post about Rohto Hada Labo Indonesia? This time, it's the sunblock. The name of it is Skin Aqua. This is Rohto Global Website. I bought Skin Aqua UV Moisture Milk SPF 50+ PA+++ and this is the website for it. Although Rohto produced all their products here in Indonesia, but I think they kept the quality higher than old brand for face here like Biore. I don't think Biore Indonesia's facewash is good enough, while Hada Labo Ind facewash is so much better from that. Though I never tried the made in Japan Hada Labo products to compare it with Indonesian version, I think it suits my skin very well. This is the website for Rohto Indonesia.

And sooooo, I decided to buy Schwarzkopf Extra Care Ultimate Repair Anti-Damage Hair Mask!! Phew, it's a long name. I will just sticks to Schwarzkopf ultimate repair hair mask for now, because the "repair" word describes all. It is functioning as a hair mask, so it's a bit different than conditioner, although the actual "how to use" it are almost the same, just spread it all over hair then massage head for a minute or more. Just that, while conditioner can be applied everyday (based on instruction), a hair mask will just do with 2-3 times a week. It helps repair damages created by chemical on a hair, expecially hair coloring, curling, etc. I have very damaged hair because of straightening and coloring, so I chose this variation to improve the healthy-ness of my precious hair. This is Schwarzkopf official website. The company from German (it's mother company is Henkel) also created different ranges of hair products from shampoo, conditioner, serum, even hair coloring. Schwarzkopf also means "black head".

Shiseido Ma Cherie is the hair brand I loves so muuuuch!! This is the website for this fabulous elegant, unique, and does good effect & smell. Did you remember when I used to talk about my Japanese bath products? It's in this page. When I wrote that post, I didn't care about conditioner or hair mask, treatment etc. But now, I think I need more than just a shampoo, to take care of my dry and fringe hair. So I bought (again from Nihonmart) the conditioner from Ma Cherie moisture range.

Kracie is brought to Indonesia by PT Hoyu Indonesia. So far, there are only two brands in here, which is Bigen and Kracie. Bigen is a company produced hair colorant, while Kracie (in the past, it is Kanebo) produced hair and face treatment. Actually, I had bought Hoyu Company's one of hair coloring brand, which is BeautyLabo (isn't available in Indonesia, I bought it in Thailand). So far, Kracie Ichikami shampoo didn't do well on my hair, despite it made my hair straight, it also made it stiff. But I love the flower smell , it is not too strong, but still lingers after washing. The picture below is the product packaging, in red (to pink) color:

Whoaaah, what should I feel about this? I told my mom to cut my bangs and the result is, some said it looks like helmet and my director at office said the bangs looks similar to what Cleopatra had! Actually, I wanted to be like Japanese girl who have their bangs soft and thin. But I don't know the result is chaos because my hair is strong and thick. I now have smoother hair thanks to Japanese shampoo (most of it because Shiseido Tsubaki and Shiseido Ma Cherie, also from Tsubaki conditioner), but before, I had thick, hard (stiff), and messy hair. Uhm, it's not an advertisement for Shiseido, truthfully. I just feels happy of using it.

Skin79 is a Korean brand famous for its BB cream, although they also produced makeup properties. The most famous BB cream ranges is the Color BB Series, different bottle color with different functions. I have tried the Oriental Gold BB cream Plus version (the one in gold bottle and added lipgloss/cream cheek), also from a sample, and even though it blended very well with my skin, I could feel oily and sticky. Yup, the BB cream is too sticky, it makes my face shine even though my skin is dry. Maybe because I don't like overly shiny face, I don't want to buy the full bottle. Now, after purchasing Canmake at Beauty Store, they gave me this 2 sachets BB cream sample from purple color, famous for dry skin. The BA saw my face and she immediately knew about my skin type. Purple is very good at moisturizing, also with high SPF 40 PA+++. Skin79 website is here.

I thought I must try Canmake other products before deciding if it's a good or bad brand. I had problem with Canmake Creamy Touch Rouge 01 Marshmallow Pink because it's too creamy and showed liplines. After Canmake opened its first store in Indonesia, at Beauty Couture Mall Kelapa Gading 3, 2nd floor, plus it discounted 20% of every Canmake product, I must go! Beauty Couture is truthfully a distributor for Etude House store in Indonesia, and a few brands for example Cottage and Skin79. It expands its business to facial treatment etc with its own tools. I don't know the detail because it's the first time I bought any item from them. This are Canmake official website in Japanese and English. Let's see more in my post.

Many must have tried Shiseido Tsubaki right? I have used the red (Shining series) bottle one, which was very good. It made my hair very smooth, I didn't need to comb. And another product from Shiseido also, Ma Cherie, has tropical fruit fragrance which is soothing. I like both of Shiseido's hair shampoo. Here, I tends to use brand from Shiseido in bathroom, while I prefers Kanebo for makeup. Quite funny, you see, I'm not a loyal customer for one brand so bare with many kinds of brand I will try. But if I find out it's good for me, I will keep purchasing. I bought 220ml bottle just to try if it's as good as another conditioner/hair mask I've tried, example for Schwarzkopf conditioner and Lee Chul Hair KerKer hair mask. This is Tsubaki website.

I've said that I didn't like the new color of my hair. It's too bright and blonde, I wasn't sure about my appearance. Sometimes, rather than beige color, in some picture, my hair would turn red. Maybe it's because I took 45 minutes to color my hair, rather than the box suggested, 30 minutes. I waited for Schwarzkopf Freshlight Foam (I want Melty Cherry) to get discounted, but after a month, I realized there wasn't any. While usually it's almost took a little time for it to get discounted at Watsons/Guardian nearby, when I needed it, the price wouldn't go down a bit. Then I chose this Schwarzkopf Palette series for Intensive Color Creme because it's the half price for Freshlight. Of course I realized the tube also in half size of it. I chose number 3-0 Dark Brown color. Website here.

I bought this pen-type liquid eyeliner in November 2013 (last year) and it still functioning very well. Even more, it's smooth and small tip gives perfection in drawing lines. From two liquid eyeliners I have, I like Heroine Make the best. But yeah, you can see that I'm not a eyeliner girl. I can live without it. So maybe my comparison can't be precise because I just had tried a tiny pencil liner and two liquid types.

So far, I loves using cosmetics from Kanebo. While I haven't tried Shiseido's drugstore brand such as Majolica Majorca or Dolly Wink (Well, the two are best for their eyes product and since I'm not into it, I have not try it yet), I think KATE are my favorite brand. I intended to buy KATE Brown Shade Eyes in BR-1 (Pearly Brown, Kuroki Meisa's makeup, a brown with sexy luster) or BR-6 (Matte, a unique matte brown) previously because I need natural eyeshadow (Mine are just blue-black Fasio and pink-purple Peripera). But when I saw Coffret D'or products at Ichibankao (I never buy from it because I don't have PayPal, but it's famous around blogger), my eyes went to its Full Smile Eyes eyeshadow, packing together with Color Blush and Elegant Jewelry Rouge EX-100. The website for Coffret D'or is here. Please relax while reading my hype review over this product.

Back to my new favorite lip product! Now is for the lipbalm, especially NIVEA Vitamin Shake in Cranberry & Raspberry flavor.

Have I write about Canmake? Yep. It's about my cosmetics haul from Bangkok. Did I ever mentioned that I bought its lipstick and it's very creamy? Yes, it does creamy and my line appears well using Creamy Touch Rouge in Marshmallow Pink although I like the color very much. Though I experiencing trouble for the lippies, I want to try their other products especially the cream blush (which is famous). Sadly, I don't want to go overseas just from trying them. And thankfully, God can hear me so it will soon be available in Indonesia! I hope it will be easy to find, because it's a drugstore brand, I want it to be sold in Watsons/Guardian too.

Please do check on their Facebook page because they are going to come to our nearby store. For more information about the company, Ida Laboratories, this is the website in English. I just wanna tell you all about this information since I'm excited that Japanese makeup brands will come here. First, from Shiseido and Kracie's hair products. Then Hada Labo produced their skincare here. And with this, I hope we will get to try more Japanese makeup products in the future such as Kanebo KATE, Coffret d'Or, Heroine Make Up, KOSE Fasio, Dolly Wink complete makeup (because it's hard to find complete Dolly Wink series here).  And this is the product from Canmake which I want. I am eye-ing the product these much:


*UPDATE : Canmake will be sold at Mall Kelapa Gading 3, Beauty Couture store start from November 2014.
Already available in Beauty Couture Mall Kelapa Gading & Mall Taman Anggrek, Guardian Plaza Indonesia, Guardian Mall Kelapa Gading, Guardian Grand Indonesia, Guardian Emporium, Guardian Plaza Senayan, Guardian Pondok Indah Mall, Guardian Mall Taman Anggrek, Guardian Citraland, Guardian Bintaro, Guardian Central Park, Online Shop : NihonMart & Sociolla.

Nb : I wish the product range will be completed soon because there are too many missing items / colors in Indonesia store which make my attempt to buy directly from rakuten jp comes again.

This is the first time I heard of that band. When I went to Lotte Shopping Avenue Mall, there was a Korean Festival. The sales girl gave me & my sister free sample of Lee Chul (LC) Professional Hair Kerker. When I got home, I searched on internet about LC and found out that it was a Korean hair salon and official website is here. They might be producing their original brand of shampoo & soap.

I have wrote about my facewash from Hada Labo in my post, here. Hada Labo Indonesia (Hada=skin, Labo=Laboratory?) produced 3 ranges of their products, the moisturizing effect-gokujyun, brightening-shirojyun, and anti-aging-gokujyun alpha. Although there is one product I confused it would be included in what range, Tamagohada mild peeling facewash. The company website is here, including all the product ranges and the complete ingredients in English (very useful website, huh?). Hada Labo main ingredients is the hyaluronic acid to hydrate skin. Many Japanese cosmetic/skin care item uses that ingredient (yes, it's different from Korean, which usually don't include hyaluronic acid in their product). I myself, didn't care for that as I'm satisfied by its result. Don't forget that even though the production process was made in Indonesia, it claimed still using ingredients from Japan. And it was made by Rohto & Mentholatum USA (already acquired by Rohto company).

My night cream for a year is Etude House Moistfull Collagen Cream in toner/essence & cream. This one claims to use Baobab tree & collagen for hydration. Though it's functoning well (it really gives my skin bouncy & soft feeling after one night usage), I have a problem of buying that since Etude's counter price is very expensive, while I must buy it from online seller and wait for a week to arrive. That's why I need more efficient product and easy to get. My eye goes to Hada Labo from Japan.

My packet already arrived! It's all about Frozen for eye make up. The Peripera x Disney Frozen Edition actually produced Cushion pact (2 shades), Powder pact (2 shades), Wholly Deep liner kit (5 colors in 1 tin box), Tap Tap 3 Eyes eyeshadow (2 sets to pick), Magic Glam tint (2 colors), and Nail Story Glam Nail Polishes (3 colors). For more info, you can visit ClubClio for shop. As for Peripera website is here. What I bought were Wholly Deep Liner Kit and as promised on my Fasio Shade Trick Eye review, Tap Tap 3 Eyes #1 Let It Go with purple color domination.

My eyes has been suffering from myopia & astigmatism sinced middle school. At that time, the myopia caused by electronic watching/reading was -1.5 with right axis 1. Now, after I graduated from university, my myopia increased to -2.5 and both eyes suffered axis 1. Well, ever sinced middle school, although I owned glasses, I didn't intend to use it except in class. I ignored the fact that I must use glasses in everydays activities, including walking, studying, even driving a car! The bright and clearer vision effect in using glasses makes me avoiding it for these past years and although I don't use glasses, the increasing chance is minimal.

As long as I've lived, anime is my favorite film to watch. Korean drama, Japanese dorama, nor Hollywood movie can't battle against it. My first anime is Doraemon, then Sailor Moon (which I will count it in this post for the remake). It is a little late to review summer 2014 anime sinced some of it already finished airing (Kuroshitsuji Book of Circus), but I wished to add more list to some who haven't watch.This is based on my choice and from what I have watched. The number isn't from my favorite, but rather, from its airing day, based on AniChart. You can also see some of latest anime list on that site.

And finallyyyy... I will make a review of my holy grail Etude House Face Conditioning Cream! Mine is the #original, which I think is perfect for normal skin type, while the #light might be good for oily. Urgh, I don't know the differences of them, but I will review what is mine. This is the box picture (it dented by delivery and by the way, #original mirror's color is blue when the #light one is pink):

I had made a post about these two products. But I'm not satisfied with that. It's just a slight review and I need to try more of the products because the last review was just the first time applying. It's also my first time trying brand from Fasio, even though KATE isn't my first time. Well, after I've found how to apply the eyeshadow from Fasio for work (it's a minimalize shade because I don't want to look like I'm going to a party for work), I began to love it more and more! Please bear with my excitement of these two products.

As I had post the picture of the case for both eyeshadow and powder foundation, in these post, there were my application photos. I needed to post another picture of the overall product again though, to avoid unknown packaging.

It's surprisingly easy to write my everyday life and hobbies rather than game review. Of course it is, since I don't need to take time playing a game first then remembering the scene, capturing CGs, and writing on MS Word. For miscellanous reviews like this, just needs some time at office to leisurely create another idea. Moreover, my time of playing otome games was getting hindered by my sister who insisted to watch anime with her every night.


As I've wrote previously, I went to Thailand (Bangkok) for a week. And this is what I have bought on my trip. I won't write about what clothes/bags I bought because it's not that great. Just a normal dress and it's cheap. What I would write is about makeup I bought at Watsons. I rarely goes to Watsons in my country because most of it are filled with Western brands/made in Indonesia, which I don't really like. The brands will makes my skin/lips dry, some like Garnier BB Cream makes my face feels hot when applying. They are cheaper and exactly not cute/classy. All makeup packagings in our Watsons are unattractive, dull, and same between brands. Okay, you can blame me for not loving Indonesian products but it's true that they're unsuitable for me and that is what made me refuse to try makeup until I found Korean/Japanese cute packaging & moist products, in my last university days.

After the first post of my trip, I will write the continuation. This will be more fun than shopping, because we visited many kinds of place. So, it's not all about mall and market. Even though some of it were exactly right.
