the product it self doesn't have any label on it... except the cap.
so i think it's pretty boring... ⊙△⊙

but the size is surprisingly big enough = a lot amount of product ⊙▽⊙
here is the comparison with my hand.

Uploaded from the Photobucket Android App

the applicator is pretty slim and pointy, so it will be easy to apply and precision is great. ⊙ω⊙

Don't be intimidate with the red color on the bottle! because when i swatched it,
the color is not intimidating as i think... it doesn't have any shimmer on it,
but the glossiness amount is great! this lip gloss is meant to make our lips more plump and full.

here is the swatches on my lips,

So glossy!
this lip gloss consistency is really thick and a little bit sticky...
but it really long lasting! more long lasting than my other lip gloss,
maybe because the consistency is thick?
i didn't really mind the stickyness, but some people didn't really like sticky lip gloss. i'm pretty tolerant lol~  Ψ(´▽`)Ψ

Pro:
- Long lasting
- So Glossy!
- A lot amount of product
- Pointy applicators

Con:
- Expensive
- Sticky

I don't know where i can buy this in Indonesia, maybe online shop?
but i bet it will be expensive lol~ japanese product are expensive but the quality is great.

( Review ) Geo Crazy Lens SF-72

Hi guys! ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ
finally a lens review! it's been a while since my last lens review~
but now i will reviewing this Crazy Lens from Geo ( SF-72 )
if you like cosplay, harajuku, visual kei or you want to stand out,
this lens is for you!  (ノ´ー`)ノ




Geo Crazy Lens ( SF-72 )

Power Available : can not minus
Life Span : 1 Year
Diameter : 14.00 mm
Water content: 38%


as you can see, this lens color and pattern is very intimidating,
and clearly not an everyday lens. But for a special occasions like Cosplay event,
Halloween, or for a concept photoshoot this lens is very cool because it looks 
great on photograph.  (☆^O^☆)

this is how it's look on my eyes

without flash
with flash ( lower lashes are edited :p )

Color and pattern ( 5/5 ):
the color is super vibrant! with or without flash, the color just make my eyes pop and really stand out. The pattern is like an explosion of yellow and red color, and the color is very bold.

Enlargement Effect ( 4/5 ) :
this crazy lens diameters is 14.00 mm, i think all crazy lens have same diameters. But this lens did makes my eyes looks bigger, the effect is the same with 14.8 mm lenses.
Comfort ( 3/5 ) :
Crazy lenses is thicker than the others cosmetics lenses, and the water content is not really high, so it will feel dry faster than the other lenses. for my eyes, it feel dry after 3 - 4 hours usage. ⊙△⊙

Overall ratings ( 4/5 ) :
this lenses is for a special occasions usage. Clearly not for people who likes natural looks,
but if you want to looks bold and stand out this lens is worth to try. Also this lens is not suitable for everyday use, because it feel dry faster than the common cosmetics lenses, and all Crazy Lenses can't have minus.

I got this lens from Softlensholic,
if you're interested on getting this lens or another lens,
don't forget to check out their Facebook or Facebook Page,

what do you think about this lens?
do you brave enough to wear this lens? (ノ*゜▽゜*)

( Review ) Fresh Apple Sparkling Pore Gift Set

Hi guys!  ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ
will make a quick post before i go to sleep!
i'll talk about Fresh Apple Sparkling Pore Gift Set from Skinfood,
i got this from Kawaii Corner!





this gift set contains a toner and emulsion and both in a mini or travel size.


i think this gift set is great for us to trying something new, because buying
a fullsize product is a let down if the product doesn't do justice to our skin.
i already used up all of this gift set, it's takes me a month to use it all!

so let's see how this products works on my skin.


first is the toner, aside from it's name the toner and the emulsion didn't really smells like apple, the toner it self actually smells like alcohol to me. and when applied to skin, i can feels a cool sensation and fresh feeling but still can't stand the smell. the consistency of this toner is like water, and the packaging always makes me ended up pouring too much products.

toner consistency

the emulsion consistency is gel like and really sticky, i mean reaallyyy sticky!
it's kinda weird when i applied it on my face, but after blended to skin the gel quickly melt and absorbed really well to skin.

emulsion consistency
this toner and emulsion didn't make me break out which is a good thing, but
after using it for a month i didn't really see a different change on my skin. 
will i buy the full size product? i don't think so...⊙△⊙

i do really enjoying the refresh feeling but this products is not for me.

for summary,
Pro:
- travel friendly packaging
- good for trying out new skin care
- cooling sensation and refresh feeling when applied

Con:
- toner smells like alcohol
- emulsion is really sticky
- packaging makes me always poured too much product
- can't see any different after 1 month usage

i have to tell that what's not working on me maybe works really well on you,
and we all have a different type of skins.
this is just my personal opinion.(*^^*)

you can buy this product at kawaii Corner on Facebook and their Page,
they sell a lot of Korean Beauty product with a affordable prices,
so don't forget to check them out!

So who's already tried this product?
please tell me your experience with this product on the comment
section bellow~
have a good day and good night!  ヾ(@^▽^@)ノ

( Review ) The Face Shop Face it Power Perfection BB Cream

Hi guy's! ヽ(*⌒∇⌒*)ノ
today i'll do a quick review of The Face Shop Face it Power Perfection BB Cream in sample,
that i got from Kawaii Corner.



Description:

this BB cream providing total skin treatment to achieve a "power perfection skin"
by imparting proactive care to overall skin problems, including bagginess, roughness, and dryness.

this BB cream has SPF 37/PA++ which is pretty high for our protection from the sun.
swatch on hand
blended

the consistency of this BB cream is thick, and have medium - full coverage.
after blended it on my hand you can see that it covers all of dark spot on my hand
and make it looks brighter. 

Let's see the swatch on my face. My face is in a bad shape right now,
i got a lot of acne and acne scars because of my period, so i need a full coverage
BB cream to hide all the imperfection.

before....:(
after using BB cream

as you can see, it does covers the redness around my cheek,
but still need concealer to covers my acne. 
what i like about this BB cream,
it didn't feels heavy on my face, and after 10-15 minutes it will match my skintone.

the oil control is pretty good too, i already run out my favorite Skin79 Hot Pink BB cream, and after trying this sample i think i'll buy a full product. Because the coverage is better.

but after searching on the net i actually surprise because the full size product is
kinda expensive for me...around Rp 200.000 ++
i'll search for another alternative BB cream, and save money for this one.

Summary,
Pro:
- Great Coverage
- Great oil control
- Not feel heavy on skin
- Have SPF 37/PA ++

Con:
- A little bit expensive

do you already tried this BB cream?
or do you know an alternative BB cream that have a medium - full coverage
with great oil control?
don't forget to comment bellow!
have a nice day~ o(≧▽≦)o

Back into Nature with Natures Healthbox !

Have a sensitive skin? or sensitive hair?
hard to find a products that have a natural and organic ingredients?

we don't have to worry now!
because there's Natures Healthbox now!
Natures Healthbox is a newly open online store that sell a lot of
products such as beauty and skin care products, baby and child products, food,
household even product for your lovely pets! (⌒▽⌒)☆

all of their products are organic, natural and eco-friendly.
and who doesn't love organic and natural products? and it can save our lovely 
planet too~ ヽ(^Д^)ノ

Shine Boost Conditioner that i already used for a while~




Organic Surge, your hair best friend! i love their motto! lol
okay first is the Shampoo, my hair is quite in a bad condition.
i have a lot of fall out and recently i dye my hair too.
so it's not really in a good condition. ⊙△⊙

actually i hope that this shampoo is for fall out hair, but it's for normal hair
as you can see.

buuuut~ this shampoo is incredibly didn't make my hair fall worse!
it's actually lessen day by day! unlike some drug store shampoo that i tried before,
they make my hair fall out sooo badly.


the Shampoo consistency is quiet runny and doesn't have any color on it.
when i washed my hair i can smell a fresh lemony scent but the scent is not too much, so after the wash you maybe not smell anything.
also when i have long hair i tended to need a lot more product to wash my hair,
but now i cut my hair short so i didn't need a lot of product than before.
but it did a little bit hard to make it bubbly on long hair.


Ingredients: 

Aqua (Water)*, Cocamidopropyl Betaine*, Sodium Coco-Sulfate*, Decyl Glucoside*, Sodium Lauryl Glucose Carboxylate*/Lauryl Glucoside, Coco-Glucoside*, Phenoxyethanol/Benzyl Alcohol/Potassium Sorbate, Citrus Grandis*, Citrus Medica Limonum*, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis*, Aqua*/Sucrose Laurate/Alcohol, Glycerin (Veg)*, Sodium Chloride*, Tocopherol*, Citric Acid*, Citral, Linalool, Limonene. *naturally-derived ingredient. Naturally occurring within essential oils.


now for their Conditioner, not like their shampoo that have a lemony scent.
i found that the conditioner didn't have lemony scent at all, lol


the consistency of the conditioner is thick unlike the shampoo, and i just need
a little amount of it for all of my hair.
what i like about this conditioner, it make my hair SUPER SMOOTH!
i just like wooowww~ when i rinse off the conditioner, it's just oh my god so smooth! after trying this shampoo and conditioner i stopped using my drug store
shampoo lol~


Ingredients:

Aqua (Water)*, Glycerin (Veg)*, Cetrimonium Chloride*, Cetearyl Alcohol*, Vitis Vinifera*, Cetearyl Alcohol*/Peg-20 Stearate, Guar Hydroxypropyltrimonium Chloride*, Citrus Grandis*, Citrus Medica Limonum*, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis*, Citric Acid*, Dimethicone Copolyol, Phenoxyethanol, Tocopherol*, Hydroxypropyltrimonium Hydrolyzed Wheat Protein*, Citral, Limonene, Linalool. *naturally-derived ingredient. Naturally occurring within essential oils.

i found that my scalp is more healthy now, because i did have dandruff before when i'm using drug store shampoo. I can feel that my scalp and hair is more healthy and the hair is more easy to manage. maybe because my hair love natural ingredients? 

For their packaging, the flip cap is so easy to use and we can control the product
amount with squishing the packaging. but for the shampoo because the consistency is runny, be careful to not squishing too much. 

The Shampoo is in 250ml and the conditioner is in 200ml, it's quite a lot of products. and will last for a while for my short hair.

comparing with my hand
