The All Natural Face review

Hi friends... it seems that I've been neglecting my blog recently. I can't help it.. I'm officially "underpressure girl". All of this work really steals my fun..

well, today I'm gonna do a review about the all natural face's package that I've been mentioned earlier.
Let's see...

1. 20 shades of foundation baggies with mini kabuki

The price is tottaly cheap.. u've got 20 sample baggies plus mini kabuki for $4..!!
I choose the pale-medium skin tone, but just one that really match my skin tone. oh well, i can always mix them. no big deal.. I feel like I'm sort of drug maker when I played with those powder. Lol
The Coverage is great, its very intensive, and u don't need a lot of foundation, I found that one sample baggies is enough for 5-6 times use.
One day, I applied it without any primer, and my skin looked like oil fields. unfortunately they didn't have matte formula like Everyday minerals had. I wish they improve the foundation formulas, because I think I'm gonna love it if its matte.
As for the mini kabuki, don't bother to use it. Don't ask, but I will give u the reason why..

can u see the bristles??

2. Vegan Gel Pots - Swiss Chocolate

Gosh.. I really like this color..!! its so pretty.. and highly pigmented, and Smudgeproof too..!! Yay!! for $4 sure is very recommend to buy..
the only problem with me is I can't seem to apply it smoothly, I have a shaky hands.. I spent 5-10 minutes to apply gel eyeliner. it seems that I need to practice more often.

3. Vegan Shea and Cocoa butter mini lipstick - Candied peaches

This mini lipstick so yummy...! it smells nice.., and doesn't dry my lips, although its "lipstick" its actually kinda like a lipgloss too me. Very pigmented of course, but I found it lil' bit hard to blend it perfectly to my lips. I dunno maybe I've applied it the wrong way..

the swatch :

the upper row is candied peaches lipstick
the lower one is gel liner swiss chocolate

4. Fix-it hidration mist

Its basically like other hidration mist. U can use this as eyeshadow/eyeliners sealant by applying wet. it does makes difference too.. I liked it. it will make ur make-up stay longer, and ur eyeshadow smudgeproof. the price goes the same with others.. yup! $4 and I think it was a great deal !!

So, that's for today I guess..
I hope I can update my blogs more frequently..
so please don't forget me already.. haha

Have a nice days fellas..!!

Mini hauls this week

Hi friends
, sorry for the lack of updates .. I'm really busy this week, I had to go to college after my exam grades, and it was not easy. I have to go back and forth here and there so that my grades can be included in the transcript value. Very annoying and bothersome. Yet again I have to meet my thesis supervisor so that She will approve my thesis titles that I've been made. She is a senior lecturer, so it is very difficult to meet her.
And I still have to deal with my online shop, because I got a pretty good orders from my customers. I was thrilled. the dresses which I've made got a pretty good response, so I had to finish their order. No complains! Buyer is a king. LOL
Besides that, I think I also need refreshing. My head seemed to explode because of too much thinking. You must have felt it too right?

So I decided to go shopping so I wouldn't be too stressful. Lie, it's all just my reasons! ha ha .

This is what I've bought yesterday..

Acnes Powder Lotion, Johnny Andrean hair tonic, Biokos Pure Balance moisturizer, Viva Face Mask Bengkuang and Papaya, a mask brush, Sariayu Loose Powder Kuning langsat, Sariayu e/s Nias series, Sariayu Lipstick - Toba1, Sariayu Lipstick - Besure1.

And here's the swatches :

from the top row : Sariayu l/s besure1, Sariayu l/s toba1, Sariayu Nias e/s golden brown, Sariayu Nias e/s pink, Sariayu Nias e/s white-gold

Beautiful isn't it? I love the colors ..!
Besure1 Sariayu is a bright red-chili like, I actually bought this for my mom. She loves to wear red lipstick. Toba1 Sariayu is brownish-pink color, very neutral and I love it ..!

The brochure from Sariayu:

I've tried to apply it to my eyelids, but somehow the color is not too visible, though the swatches that I made is very clear..
 
God yes, I'm so tired . I will continue my review tomorrow.
I'll see you and don't forget me ya .. haha

xoxo,

Signature Minerals Hauls

Happy Monday fellas..!! guess what? I finally got my package from Signature Minerals this morning .. !! the delivery takes approximately 2 weeks, fast enough for international shipping isn't it? I am very happy, even I didn't go to college today. ha ha.. ok, stop blabbering.. :P

ok, so actually what I order? I ordered 4 samples of foundation, 1 sample of veil, and one concealer . Not much, huh? Yes, actually when I was hesitant to order a full size product. So I just wanted to try it. The fact is that they provide free samples to costumer for the first time ordering. So actually I got it for free, except for shipping costs is around $ 7.65. The samples is filled fully, they really generous huh? so imagine I could spend all the samples within a month.


The shades that I get is a medium light (5.0, 6.0, 7.0) and medium beige (5.3). They aren't named specifically and only labeled with numbers. Lil' bit confusing indeed, but not a problem for me. I also get a concealer - multitasking and also a veil (angel wings). So now I will swatches them for you, maybe you also intend to order later :)

- 5.0 Medium Light seemed very pinkish, and I don't know if it will fits in my skin tone. I haven't try it.
- 5.3 Medium Beige seemed a little darker, but still able to blend with my skin. I haven't try it.
- 6.0 Medium Light the color looks very yellow, and first I thought it would be too yellow for me, but when I try, suits me pretty well.
- 7.0 Medium Light slightly yellowish color, but not as yellow as 6.0 . I haven't try this one yet.

The coverage is average, I didn't try my concealer yet so maybe it looks better if I put concealer first. They didn't have a many formulas like everyday minerals had. However, the texture it slightly smoother than EDM.
And the Veil .............!! I think its better than EDM's Kaolin powder. It has a pretty good oil-control, and gives me this radiant look. I think I like this veil so far.. Yeah, definitely..!!

Maybe I'll consider to open Pre-order if I found myself quite liking this MMU.

I think that's all, I hope you didn't bored with me already. Lol
See you later !!

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.. :)

Giordani Gold Adaptive Foundation

Giordani Gold Adaptive Foundation

Honestly, I rarely wear any foundation at all, but when I take a look at Oriflame Catalogue, I found that maybe this one is worth to buy so I decide to order it not in sample size (which is free I guess..) but in full size tube. I know maybe I should try the sample first knowing that most of foundation I've ever tried always made my skin breakout horribly and that wasn't nice.

Anyhow, I've got this for IDR 149.000 not so cheap though, but I can't help it! tee-hee.. the shade I've got is natural beige, because I always confuse to choose any shades which suit my skin tone perfectly. They have Porcelain, Natural Ivory, Natural Beige, and Natural Rose. While porcelain is the lightest shade and Natural Rose is looked like a Tan colour. My friend suggest that I choose Porcelain, but I decide against it. My skin tone is lil' bit yellowish and sometimes it looked bit fair..
I know it's confusing. ha ha.

My first impression is this stuff has nice packaging; looks so glamour with golden colour on its package, And it comes with pumps too..! cute!
Ok, so on the catalogue it claims that this product :

• Has an Opal Pigment to adjust with your skin color perfectly. This one I AGREE, it looked bit too dark on my arm when I tried it first, but when I put it on my face and blend it well, it looks so natural for me.
• Gives you silky-smooth finishing touch. I didn't notice the difference before, but I guess it does.
• Your skin texture more even all day long. Well, it's not like 24 hours but, I found it long lasting enough.It gives me nice coverage and not caking about 6-8 hours.

The only thing I didn't like is when I don't clean my face properly after use this product, I will surely have a pimple on my face ( of course !! ). I think I gonna use it only in rare occasion, and when I don't wanna use it anymore I can always sell it with a lower price of course.. !! ha ha

my swatch:

lil' bit darker

it blends really well in my arms too !
