Looking for a primer for oily skin?

hi gals... !!
how's today? I hope everything is good as always for you..

Today my mood is so good and I've finished working on my thesis proposal which needs to be revised. I planned to go to the campus and meet my lecturers to consult and submit my thesis revisions that I've been doing last night. but I oversleept... so the plans is cancelled..tee-hee
So instead I went to the mall, and decided to watch movies with my cousins.. we've spending time together, it was good. I rarely see her because she lived on other city. oh and I also bought a few items as well, but I will post it sometimes later..
So, today is very hot and my face look more super oily than usual..
I remember about reading article about skin treatment, actually its all not about oily skin but I found it will be useful for those who had oily skin like me..
what is it?

 
its a laxative..! Milk of magnesia is one of them right? So, apparantly some people use this stuff for a primer. I've never think about it before.. so I googled it and suprised that people rave about it..!
and I also check the ingredients, mainly contains of magnesium hydroxide. its good for absorbing oil.
I also read the articles here about using laxative as a primer.
But, when I do pay a visit to a local drugstore nearby, sadly they didn't have or at least know about Milk of magnesia. They just give me a weird look. it means that I won't be able find Milk of Magnesia in my country
So, I looked for other alternatives to subtitute MOM, and I found Mylanta..! it has the same ingredients excepts MOM didn't contains of Alumunium Hydroxide, I think. But of course I googled about it, and relieves that its practically safe to use.
So I bought that Mylanta-thingy.
I'm going to try this stuff tomorrow, and I'll let u know if it works for me..

That's it..!
if you already try use this MOM as primer, then I need your opinion..

well, good night everybody..

Ps: I'm sorry if my english is bad, I didn't have time to check the grammars. Lol
Psss: am I using too much emoticon ?

Xoxo,

TBS Tea Tree Mattifying Vs Bless Oil Control Moisturizer

Hi friends, how are you today? I hope your weekend went great. Today I'll give a little review about 2 moisturizer I've ever used. They are The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Mattifying Moisturizer and Bless Oil-Control Moisturizer. At first glance you can notice that both these moisturizers are equally for oily skin. But when viewed from the price difference is big enough, whether the more expensive one certainly have a good quality? so, I'll do a comparison on both moisturizer.

The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil Mattifying Moisturizer

• What it claims : Helps to reduce oil to leave skin clear, matte, healthy-looking and minimizing breakouts.
  
• Price : around IDR 109.000 I think.
• My opinion : This moisturizer has a light texture and easily absorbed into the skin, and smells like tea tree oil (obvious right? Lol). When I used it was minty-cool, but sometimes it felt stings, probably because my face is emerging pimples. I like this gel quickly absorbed so because I do not have to wait long to apply powder on my face. But I think the oil-control is average, about an hour my face felt greasy again ( it was supposed to keep my face matte! ), and still doesn't keep pimples away from my face. Overall, I think this moisturizer just so-so, and its not like what I expected. I don't think I will repurchase anytime soon.

Bless Oil-Control Moisturizer

• What it claims : Moisturizer, enriched with UV filters, Vit. E as an antioxidant and also Pro - Vitamin B5 to moisturize facial skin that remains soft and not oily.
• Price : IDR 38.000 very cheap.. :D
• My Opinion : The Texture is not much different from TBS, its quickly absorbed too. I like the moisturizer has UV filters, so provide more protection on my face, and certainly much cheaper. I had less pimples when I'm using this stuff. So, I think its good on my face. And the oil-control much better when compared with TBS, lasted about 4 hours on my face. Its really worth to buy ! I think I will repurchase again ( it doesn't burn my wallet ).

So, it was a bit of my review, I hope can help you find a suitable moisturizer for your oily skin. I guess not all expensive items suitable for all skin.. That's it, have a nice weekend fellas.. :)

Random Beauty Tips

Today I took the time to look for beauty tips through the internet. And there are some which I think is worth a try. Prepare your notes, gurls.. !! :D

• Are your elbows dark ? To prevent chaffing on your elbows, cut a lemon in half and rub it on your elbows!
• Want to smells good all day ? To keep your perfume smelling good longer, mix a bit of it in with your moisturizer and apply.
• Hate big pores ? To take care of enlarged skin pores you need lemon juice and orange juice. Mix the juices and apply all over your face in upward and outward stokes. Wash it after 10 minutes. This is also a good facial mask for oily skin!!
• Oily skin ? To care for oily skin you should start with a gentle, foaming facial wash. This will remove dirt and oil without stripping away moisture. Soak cotton wool in a gentle astringent lotion and sweep it over your skin to refresh and cool it. Even oily skin needs a moisturizer, but chose a light, watery fluid; this will be enough for your skin. Allow the moisturizer to sink in and then absorb the excess with a tissue to prevent shine.
• Clay Mask ? Not only are they an excellent way to get excess oil out from your pores but the clay actually dries up pimples and can also sooth your skin from those itchy bug bites!!!
• Yogurt, what can it be used for ? It can be applied to you skin to soften and sooth tight, dry skin. It can be used on oily skin to absorb excess oil. And it can also be used to get rid of a flakey scalp! Massage it onto your scalp and leave it for 15 minutes. Then rinse it out, you should now be flake free!!
• Minimized Pores! Ingredients: -one green tomatoes - one tsp of honey directions using a blender puree the tomato with the honey, apply to a clean face with foundation brush, and leave on for 20 minutes, then wash.
• Stressed? It will show! Here are a few suggestions on how to detox: Natural aromatherapy oils or candles in the home - Listen to calming music at night - have a massage at least once a month - exercise at least 30 minutes a day - take a 20 minute walk in the evening - take all natural vitamins daily- And don't forget to smile!!
• Exfoliate your lips! Want kissable lips, use your toothbrush and brush your lips slightly before bed, add lip balm, and awake with smooth lips!
• Puzzled to find a suitable lip color? Your skin color is important when determining which lip color will be the most flattering. Plums, wines and deep reds are perfect for those with dark skin. Light-brown beiges with pink or orange undertones flatter light skin and brownish reds, light browns and raisin shades look good on olive skin.
• Have extra baking soda lying around the house? Use it to get rid of flaky elbows, to exfoliate your face, to brush your teeth, and even to get rid of a pimple!
• Absorb that oil! To help absorb excess oil from your roots, use a little tea tree oil with your shampoo!
• Too much dandruff and hair loss? Beat two eggs and add two tablespoons of water to it. Wet the your hair and apply the egg mixture over the hair. Now massage your scalp and leave the mixture on for ten to fifteen minutes. Then rinse the hair with lukewarm water. This will help keep the hair on your head and the dandruff out of it!!
• Not enough time for a shower? Oily hair? No problem! Sprinkle a little baby powder on your roots, for a quick fix!
• Get rid of those dark circles!!! Here's 6 ways to help eliminate dark circles: 1. Get enough sleep. Try to go to bed a little earlier than you normally would. 2. Cucumber slices have a soothing effect on the eyes. 3. Use sunscreen every day and moisturize in the night preferably using a good under eye cream. 4. Drink plenty of water to hydrate the skin. 5. Apply cold compresses. 6. Eat fresh fruits and vegetables. Iron deficiency can be a cause for dark circles around the eyes.
• Elmer’s glue ? Use Elmer’s glue on your face to get rid of blackheads! Simply apply the glue to your face and peel off when dry!

where I could get Elmer's glue? is it the same as paper glue?

How to make ASPIRIN MASK

Aspirin mask is not something new, but many people are not aware of this amazing mask and the potential it has for clearing you skin!

Aspirin Mask biasa digunakan sebagai masker untuk mengatasi jerawat, blackhead atau komedo dan berbagai macam permasalahan kulit lainnya, especially buat yang punya kulit oily.
Aspirin is made out of salicylic acid also known as Beta Hydroxy Acid, BHA for short. BHA adalah exfoliant yg berfungsi untuk menghilangkan sel-sel kulit mati dan menimbulkan regenerasi kulit. Coba lihat produk-produk perawata kulit berjerawat, biasanya cenderung memiliki kandungan BHA nya dengan konsentrasi 1-2%.

trus gimana cara membuatnya?
So lets start with:
- aspirin ( bener, obat pusing itu lho.. bisa di beli di apotik/drugstore muraaaah )
- madu (madu asli ya, bukan madurasa)
- toner (toner apa aja bisa, gw pake toner biokos)
- pelembab (gw pakenya TBS mattifying)

caranya:
- letakkan 3-4 butir aspirin diatas piringan kecil, kasih beberapa tetes air hangat. nanti leleh sendiri.
- setelah kecampur, tetesi pake madu secukupnya aja ya..
- oleskan masker ini ke wajah, ratakan. diamkan 10-15 menit.
- sebelum dibersihin, digosok2 aja dulu ke wajah seperti kalo lagi peeling atau scrubbing.
- bilas pake air hangat.. air biasa jg gpp sih.. :P
- pake toner..!
- pake pelembab ya..
- dijamin kinclong...... spt michelle phan XP


NOTE : buat yg alergi aspirin lebih baik don't try this at home..!
