Oh hello, finally another product review after such a long break from this blog. I tried my best to have some times to write more on this blog, but still there are always something more urgent to do that time. Since everything is starting to back on track I got this free weekend to write down this post. Actually it is not a new product from L'Oreal Paris and it is not a month after usage, so sorry. But this one is a product that I will definitely repurchase. 

I know I have been using Wardah white secret series before, and of course there is no break out or something, but so far this series only help me to maintain my skin from getting dry, I mean I actually I want to repair the dullness as well. So, I tried this product on the end of August last year.


Packaging

I really love the packaging, it is so classy and luxury as well. I love the glassy packaging but of course it is not travel friendly, but I love it. the thing is the glass so thick and so far it is still save to carry on for me. The cons I do not really like is the hole of its lid. It is somehow too wide, so then the product can poured too much, so I do not need so much, only once drop it could be applied to my whole face up to my neck as well.

Ingredients

It contains Butylene Glycol which so good for dry skin. That is why I love it when I wake up in the morning, my skin is always so moist and hydrated. But do not worry it also fine for you guys who have oily skin, because it contains Salicylic Acid which good for oily skin and acne prone. You can check out more about the ingredients here. But for me, I love it when It is applied to my skin it does not give any slick effect like the previous product I have been used. It absorbs quickly into your skin, so you do not have to wait any longer to apply your next skin care product. I also love it when it helps me to maintain my skin texture. It helps a lot to reduce the texture of my left cheek.     


Product Usage

I usually use it as my toner as well, so I apply it once after I have done taking a bath and wash my face with facial foam. Since the texture is so watery so I use my palm to flatten the product all around my face and neck as well. It is surprisingly absorbed quickly than I though, so once I ready to put next skin care I tap it gently and apply the serum to my whole skin face. 

Purchase

I bought it first time on Sociolla, the smaller one. It was on sale back then. But the bigger size I decided to get it from their Shopee oficial store, because they are on sale as well, even cheaper from other market place, so I cannot say NO. It costs IDR 126.750 for 65ml on sociolla and IDR 203.400 for 130ml and free the smallest size of their Revitalift serum. 

So after more than 6 months usage, I notice it can literally swipe out my blamishes and acne scars as well. I love it after night usage, it helps me maintain my skin texture in the morning, so I do not have to be worry about period acne, since it can be treat easily now by using this essence. I found my burned skin is getting better as well, so let us see whether it can help my dullness or not. I highly recommend you guys to try this one.

Well well, what a year! 2021 is definitely a glance for me. There are so many things happened, a lot to learn and to be grateful for. It was totally a colorful one than other. Talking about life would be about achievements and dreams. However this is our life, we build it our own. We can choose, create, leave live and fix it the way we want. Of course there are also thousands things we can learn from and grow with. So, this korean drama, Because This Is My First Life catch my attention. I actually have known this drama twice or more but still have no time to literally watch the whole episodes, until this year I decided to watch all of it properly, and oh my gosh, I must regret my entire life to skip this one. However I love Jung So Min so much since she acted as Oh Ha Ni on Playful Kiss, but I am not really a big fan of Lee Min Ki, so yeah.

But however I had my hardest time while watching it, and believe it or not, it was like this drama give me such an understanding and other perspective to think of my problems. I feel so much better after watching it until end. Because I literally had no one to talk to that moment. I feel so lonely but no more after I kill my night routine by watching this drama. 

For me, it is not just a comedy romance, but more than that. It gives such a great life lessons. 

https://www.soompi.com/article/1046129wpp/first-life-introduces-main-characters-cute-lovely-posters

Casts

The main casts are Jung So Min and Lee Min Ki as I mention above. I really love how Jung So Min played so childish yet so cute as a high school girl on Playful Kiss. and I never see her drama since then. Until this drama came out I still delay to watch it, in case she is not cute anymore I guess, but it was totally wrong. She might grow as a lady now, but however she always can bring that cuteness image. Besides this drama also has so many comedy scenes (since it is romance comedy genre) which she could play it very well. Lee Min Ki is not my favorite actor before I watch him here in this drama. I actually knew his drama, The Beauty Inside, but I do not really like it, sorry, so I prefer his acting here with Jung So Min. It might so boring to know how there is so many korean drama start the romance scenes by living as housemate. But this drama however hits different. I love the character of Lee Min Ki and Jung So Min played, which as Nam Se Hee a successful man in the his late of thirty who is so independent and mature but choose to live alone but he has mortgage and cannot stand marriage life, and Yoon Ji Hoo which as well decide to life alone because of financial reason. 

But what I like the most is how the whole casts give so many perspective to solve and face problems through the other casts as well, they are Esom as Woo Su Ji, who is struggling to keep working in her office with toxic people around to earn money for living, and Kim Ga Eun as Yang Ho Rang, who really want to married soon before her late thirty, but her boyfriend seems does not have the same goal about it. 

And also the other casts with another life problems which relate to my problems that time sadly, so I feel so much better as I said after I was done watching this drama. You can check other casts here. 

https://www.aprilmag.com/2018/08/06/drama-review-korean-drama-because-this-is-my-first-life/
Setting

It was of course mostly in Nam Se Hee's house since they become a housemate. The other scenes are in Ho Rang's house, since these three use to hang out in there after having deep talk about their own problems. But my favorites one was in Ji ho's parents' house where Nam Se He introduce him self as Ji Ho's boyfriend and going to marry her soon. 

There is also romantic scene happened in Ji Ho's hometown, it was twilight at the beach. 

Synopsis

As I mention above, it was started when Ji Ho decided to move to Se Hee's house as his housemate. Which they agree to live together comfortably each other. Because Se Hee such a fussy one, so he thinks Ji Ho is the perfect one as his housemate, despite she loves to tidy everything properly and know how treat his cat well. Since there is an accident happened both of them should marry soon. It was so crazy because they are both never had such a plan. Ji Ho even did not tell her best friends, Ho Rang and Su Ji. However Ho Rang and Su Ji also have their own complicated problems, Ho Rang who is finally choose to move out from the place where she used to live together with her boyfriend. Almost give up on her love life. Meanwhile Su Ji who lives for her single mother won't give up on her job, even though it is so toxic and pressures her so much. 

Between their each problems some people come and go, to give Ji Ho love, to give Ho Rang another hope and treat Su Ji so much better than her boss and other staff she work with. However they have each other as best friend. 

There are so many misunderstandings in between, how ever I love the line Se Hee said about life.

Rating

Obviously 8.5/10. I really enjoy watching this drama, I used to skip some scenes I do not like but for this one, I did not have time to skip it, because every single scenes means a lot. I really like how the characters bring such a real problem (they are not over dramatic). And of course as I mention above it is such a light drama which you will definitely relate easily, It brings pure and real emotion and reaction of people personal life. I will definitely going to recommend this drama as must watch one. I maybe will re-watch it one day. Anyway, I love the original soundtrack of this drama so much.

Hello everyone, I know it is been a while. However I really I do want to write more here this year as I always promised and hoped, but in real life I fu*king need much more time to sleep. I also need more day off to be honest. But, last weekend, after the end of month schedule, I give myself more time to watch something new, including movie and korea drama. 
So happy that weekend I have some spare times to watch this movie, Story of Dinda: Second Chance of Happiness. Which is the sequel of One Day We'll Talk About Today  movie. Some say it is the spin off with different point of view of Dinda and Kale relationship. Well, of course as I already reviewed before, there will be no spoiler ahead. 
I really love the sequel of One Day We'll Talk About Today, so that is why I really want to watch it really soon as the other spin off released. Since it was so hectic on Friday, I watched this movie on Saturday in a hope I could have much more tranquil time to focus on it. 
First thing first the one that come to my head is why the Director should be changed to Ginanti Rona, which I actually do not know about her movies yet. To be honest I put so much expectation about this spin off.
https://cinemags.co.id/kamu-tahukan-kalau-aurelie-moeremans-menyanyikan-soundtrack-story-of-dinda/
Casts
Dinda is played by the same person, she is Aurelie Moeremans. Which is of course I know her on Story of Kale, nowhere else. I love the way she build her emotion, she looks so naturally talking to other casts as it is not written on the script. But honestly I do not really like her character which is so complicated to handle her relationship problem. She may be so tired of it, but she was used to run away rather than talk about it, and in this spin off, which the writer wants to show the other point of view from her, she is really so complicated indeed until she met someone who is wiser and more mature by aged and experience, Pram. It played so great by Abimana Aryasatya. Of course I put much more expectation into it, since I knew some of his roles on other movies. I really like his acting, and obviously in Story Of Dinda he played his roles as good as he always acts. He acts as an independent man who is loved and loves his family so much, looks so wise at handling problems in his life and of course even give a help to Dinda as they met for the first time. 
Although there is not much scenes, but Kale also keep well played by Ardhito Pramono. You could check other casts here. 
https://popculture.id/film-story-of-dinda-akan-rilis/
Setting
I love the setting of this movie, because besides it takes indoor, it also takes place in a beach. I love it, how they took the picture from every angle. I also love the atmosphere in the Pram's house. It seems so cozy and comfortable, and of course it can boost the moment while Pram and Dinda talking something deeply one another, as there is something she should decide before the time runs out. Before she lose another chance to be happy.
https://cinemags.co.id/tag/story-of-dinda-a-second-chance-of-happiness/

Synopsis
It was started on the day Dinda still loves Kale as her boyfriend, the day Dinda still on his possessive arms. It was night in a club when Dinda met her friend, which is her ex boyfriend's sister. Without Kale's permission, obviously she is busy with his calls. More than ten missed calls from Kale, Dinda starts showing how overprotective and possessive he is. In other side Dinda always take risks by keep lying to him for every banned permissions. Until that night she met somebody who is more mature and rich of experience since he is already married. Pram. 
With a little courage from Pram that night, Dinda finally starts to take her problem easier. She is braver at deciding something and setting up her mind. Day by day, Dinda keep sharing her love story with Pram as she feels much better after telling him about what's happening between her and Kale. 
As they both realize how often they met and feel more understanding each other, Dinda is questioned whether she wants to leave someone she loves for another chance to be happy once more by Pram. As it is too early and suddenly for her to give him the answer, as always, the quiet and mature Pram gives her more time and space to think about it. 
Rating
6/10. I definitely expect more than this. I mean I love the last sequel so much, and of course more than that, they have Abimana as Pram. So perfect, but not with the story line. I don't know why they just give us this slice. I mean, I did not feel the climax at all, so sorry. I literally keep waiting something to burst until the last minutes. I do not know. For me It feels like keep seeking the melting cheese inside a cake we eat until our last bite. Definitely no cheese inside. However the casts act so great for each character just like the sequel before, and then again sadly there is no original soundtrack that attract me at all.

Hello everyone, so happy that I can update as soon as I know the result of a product I have been used. But, still actually it is delayed because I got so sick last week. I got sore throat and ended up getting cough and flu as well. But of course, I still gotta go to work (yeah because as I know there is like no excuse for sickness reason sadly). Anyway, I got better this weekend and cannot wait anymore to be productive again. So, yeah here is my first post after a superb hectic and a lot of struggle this week.
I know I have told you how I really love Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essense as my daily sunscreen back then. But, as it was so hard to get the special edition, Peony, I decided to but the regular one. Sadly I do not think the material is so different  but the finish of the product is so significant for me. I got oily easily after 3 hours usage, which so annoyed me enough. But, I did not end up with my first trial, I of course try to use it with or without moisturiser, serum and another daily skin product I used, but it is still too oily for my skin. So, I sadly decided to use another product. I finally try to use Loreal Paris UV Defender, which they claim they already improved their ingredients. 
Packaging
I really love the packaging. It is of course their new packaging as they improved the ingredients. It is so light to bring, the shape of the bottle also so unique. It made of plastic but the thick one, however you do not need to worry to bring it while travelling. It also completed with a super safe lid. It is locked perfectly and also has such a tiny hole which we do not need to worry if we pull out too much product while using. I really love it. However it also do not need too much space.
Ingredients
It is also watery based. So it is save for daily use. It contains Ethylhexyl Salicylate which could help to protect our skin from the sunburn and other damages. The update ingredients is Airlicium, which could absorb too much oil we do not need to maintain the moist of our skin and also help to keep it fresh and matte all day even though we have a heavy activity under the sun. It also contains so many beneficial ingredients to protect our skin from UV such as completed with SPF 50+, PA+++, or you can check the details here. 
Product Usage
I really I am surprised by the texture. It is so thick as we can see but also so quick to absorb into our skin. It is not oily and heavy at all. I of course use it three times daily. In the morning and afternoon after bathing and also once at noon to reapply after washing my face. I use it directly after I apply my moisturiser and then cover it with a very light compact powder. 
Purchase
I bought it from Sociolla as always, since there is no shipping fee, hehe. I choose the Matte and Fresh because I think I will need the matter sunscreen rather than others. You can easily find this product in drugstore or convenience store around your place, or for safe buying nowadays, you of course can get it easily on their online store. I got it for IDR. 120.000 only. 
I have been using this product for about a month and really love the improvement. I do not feel oily at all after more than three hours usage, and of course the texture can absorb quickly and no sticky at all. The thing is I really like the lid, it can control how many product we want and also can keep it clean from the untidy product after using. So far I really love this product as my daily sunscreen, I really recommend you to try it, but of course you can choose which one is the best for your skin, they provide the product with four needed, Matte and Fresh, Bright and Clear, Moist and Fresh, and Correct and Protect.

Oh hello, it is been a while, I do not post anything yet since my latest post. I know I have said that I will however post more often than before including random thoughts. But I really I have made my best to take my time for this blog and also to consistently write my daily update on my Bullet Journal. Trust me, I also skipped that part as well these past couple of months. I of course have my own reasons which I cannot share still, but there is indeed something I have to struggle a lot, just for a hint how hard I pay attention into it is I finally (happily) can tell you guys that without any diet method (but a very bad sleeping hour so far sadly) I have lost 11 kilos in these last couple of months. If you can guess, then yeah mostly because there is something I have to do with a lot of energy LOL. Physically and mentally. 

Feeling so light nowadays to wear my old blouse and trousers as well, however I need to rearrange my sleeping hour and eat a lot of fruits and vegies in the weekend. I also need to do some exercise in the weekend as well. However I really feel so great this way. Anyway, this past couple of months I also have my time again to watch K-drama that I really want to watch before so, I will recommend you guys on my next post certainly. For now, I will happily share about my thoughts after trying this local lip product. Still going to be my favorite lip cream so far, know why I love this product below.
Packaging
Make Over actually have launched so many kind of lip products recently, but Make Over Powerstay Transferproof Matte Lip Cream series catch my attention the most. However the packaging looks like their old series which is Make Over Intense Matte Lip Cream. I have share my though about it here. I love the shade I mentioned on that post, but my latest favorite usage is combining the Pompous and Classic shade together. But for daily use I usually only apply the Pompous one, and by the end of May I decided to repurchase Make Over lip cream, but turned out I choose this new series. I love how they improve their packaging into doff finish (if I am not mistaken how to call it hehe) but we still can see the shade and the remain product inside. The netto also bigger than the Intense Matte series, but over all they are really alike. The applicator also so comfortable to use just like before. They launch this series with 12 shades as I know so far.
Ingredients
However they obviously improve their ingredients to make this series stay longer and transferproof just like how they claimed it. It contains Volatile Oil which can help the product ends with matte finish but transferproof at the same time. It also can help it set perfectly and quicker as well. It also has Pigmentlock Technology to help it reduce the smudgeproof. However with that kind of technology we also worry about how if they can make our lips getting dry and for the worst caused crack and anything. Do not worry they claim this product is paraben, sulfate and alcohol free. So I believe it would never cause your lips getting dark or dry for daily and long time usage. You can check the details here.
Product Usage
As I said above, the applicator however still helpful to flatten the product all upon our lips. But we have to carefully take out and put it back to maintain the neck of the packaging (you know which I mean right?) from smudge of the product (however it is the problem to have lip cream with this kind of packaging). I personally choose to use the product so light, because I choose the wrong shade, I actually wanted to buy the Amplify or Curious shade but turned out the stock still not available while my Intense Lip Cream is nearly gone, so I choose the shade Powerful shade in a hope it will come out just like Pompous (my kinda favorite shade all the time). But It come out brighter with a bit red instead, so yeah I decided to use it a bit and blend it with cotton buds or my (clean) finger tip to get natural finish. I do not need to apply any lip balm or anything before using it and happily it did not cause anything wrong. It also feel so light on my lips, even after eating soup, the color still stay on my lips. I spend more then ten hours in a full air conditioner area but my lips still fine with this product. I honestly did not need to reapply it after lunch, maybe I will need it if I have my early dinner.
Purchase
I bought it from their official store in Shopee, because there is free delivery fee hehe. But of course you can easily found this product in drug store, their counter of any beauty product provider online. I bought with special offer, it cost only IDR 97.000 from their normal price around IDR 120.000. If there is Amplify or Curious shade available I will definitely repurchase to get them.

I really recommend you guys, who do not have enough time to retouch your make up or reapply your lip product in a mid day. You do not need to worry even after lunch, you will sill found your lips covered by this lip cream perfectly, however if you use it well (covering your lips perfectly with this product in the morning) you will get it stay any longer. The big point is, it is the matte and transferproof lip product which can maintain and moist our lips from the crack and dry. I fell like use nothing all day and no need to reapply really often. I believe you will like it so much and going to confused which color should you choose, because they have so many daily and classy colors.

Oh hello everyone, it is been while since my last post. I really am sorry I did not post anything during March, because there is something I had to do. It is actually not over yet, but yeah since there are some spare time this Sunday, so let us make it. I really I hope can share it to you guys what was going on, but not now, this chance I will update you with my another skincare review. I have been curious about how would this product work on me, so I decided to brought it in the end of February. It has been a month usage so here are below what I can say about this product so far:
Packaging
The packaging of the product is so classy if I can say. I love the color they choose and also the size, I already had it for travelling and of course it did not need too much space but a bit more protection. Since the material is from glass, you have to be careful if you bring it along your trip. I recommend you to keep it in a pouch with sponge around. The pipette also so easy to use, since the texture is so watery we have to be more careful to use the pipette or your beloved product will spilled out. You won't meet any spilled product around the neck of the glass just like another serum with bigger pipette. Since mine is Brightly Ever After Serum, so it is in soft pink. If you need acne treatment you should have the soft purple one.
Ingredients
It contains of Glutathione, Niacinamide, Vitamin C and more. As you guys know how great Glutathione and Niacinamide for dull skin. It will maintain our dull skin get brighter and hydrated at the same time. It also help our texture skin smoother and soft. The thing is how it also help to hydrate my dry skin all day and all night without feeling greasy at all. You still can combine it with your moisturizer and sunscreen since it is so light even though the texture so watery. I am also fine with the smell, I did not think it contains any fragrance at all. You can check the details here. 
Product Usage
As written on the bottle, it says that we only need to apply it two or three drops and massage into skin and make sure you give it time some minutes until the product absorb completely into your skin before using another skincare product. It also recommend you to use is day and night. I usually use three drops for all of my face, I use my palm to apply it onto my skin, because it is a bit hard to drop it directly onto my skin face. The product usually overflows everywhere since it is so watery.
Purchase
Just like another Scarlett Whitening Product, you can visit their official Instagram account. You will find the link of their official store on another platform. I got mine on Sociolla.com, I got it together with their lotion with a cheaper price, because on Sociolla you will get so many discount and even free shipping. 

As I said above, I have been use it for a month. I really like how it can moisturized my skin and do not make it greasy at all for daily use even I use a thick sunscreen product. At night it also do not feel sticky at all. So light and absorb quickly since it is watery. I really am fine with the effect, it is not comedogenic just like my Wardah White Secret Intense Brightening Essence. But, It is still just it is. I do not find my skin get brighter, or maybe I have to use it more, maybe two or three months usage would give a better result. I really am fine with this product, although at first I really was anxious it will make me got pimple or make my skin oily. So, I recommend you guys try this product as well, and I hope my review can help you decide.
