Gift from Lip on Lip and Face on Face

Hi ladies, so yesterday I received 2 packages from courier. Both of them are from PT. Rohto Laboratories Indonesia. I saw the handwriting on the envelopes said "Beauty on Healthy Photo Contest Favorite Winner" and "Lip on Lip Whose Lips Winner". Thanks God, I know this is a bless from You so I can win the contest and quiz from them and thanks to Rohto and Mentholatum for give me an opportunity to win these ^^


Okay, now let's take a peek what's inside.


Hmm..seems a lot of stuff inside =D


A lot of brochures about the products. Really interesting to read =)
Make me easier to know more about Rohto and Mentholatum products.


1. Skin Aqua UV Mild Milk. I never try this variant before. My favorite is UV Whitening Milk and you can read my review here.
2. Selsun 7 Flowers. I don't know much about Selsun shampoo but it smells really good ^^
3. Acnes Tea Tree Oil Clay Mask. I never try this clay mask before but I love Acnes Sealing Jell. I already tried a lot of Acnes products and very happy with the result =)


4. Face on Face Nourishing Blush On in Blooming Rose. I love pink blushes! Small packaging, perfect for traveling.
5. Face on Face Nourishing Loose Powder in Loose Powder in Natural Yellow. Love the packaging but I think it's too yellow for my skintone. But let me try =D
6. Face on Face Nourishing Eye Shadow in Blooming Rose. I love this shade! Looks very pretty on the pan <3
7. Face on Face Nourishing Two Way Cake in Tropical Beige. I love the packaging too and that big mirror but sadly it's way too dark for my skintone. I'm a bit surprise when I see this shade on the pan. Anyone have an idea so I can use this Two Way Cake?

I really like the packaging from Face on Face especially because I love pink, hahaha. I would love to try Blush On and Eye Shadow in Natural Glow too. They're so tempting =D


8. Lip on Lip Pure Lips in Bergamot and Orange. My favorite lip balm! Check out my review here. On that review I posted a picture that I used for Beauty on Healthy Contest, LOL! BTW, I already ran out of this lip balm and Rohto give me 2 more of it. So happy XD
9. Lip on Lip Water Color Nourishing Lipstick in Scarlet Peach, Carnation Pink, and Strawberry Red. I love lippies! So glad that I can add them into my lippies collection. Swatch, anybody?


10. Charles & Keith Purse. So pretty! Love it <3


So, that's all that I got from Lip on Lip and Face on Face. Once again, I really wanna say thank you for all of these items to Rohto and Mentholatum. Oh, and I want to say thank you for all of you who vote for my picture on Beauty on Healthy contest so I can win the contest. Thank you very much :*

Canmake Cream Cheek: 07 Coral Orange & 11 Heavenly Heart

Hello to all my readers ^^
Today is a beautiful day, right? I don't know why today is a beautiful day but I feel so happy because it's nice to know that there's a lot of people who really love me <3

Now, I wanna give a review about my new Canmake Cream Cheek that I already mention here on my previous post. This is my first cream blush ever! I'm really curious about the texture, pigmentation, application, how it looks on my cheeks, etc.


I have to admit that Canmake Cream Cheek have a lot of beautiful shades that makes me take a really long time to choose the shade that I really want. Finally, my heart and my eyes decide to choose #07 Coral Orange and #11 Heavenly Heart (beautiful name). Seriously, I have no regret at all to choose these 2 babies. They are soooo pretty. When I first opened it and look on the pan I can see pretty shades with gold microshimmer. Love love love! I really like anything pinkish with gold shimmer. They're like perfect combination. That gold microshimmer gives subtle glow to my cheeks. When I saw my finger after I blend the cream cheek on my cheeks, the gold microshimmer looks like a sheen.

#07 Coral Orange & #11 Heavenly Heart (with flash)

#07 Coral Orange: Pretty coral with gold shimmer.

#11 Heavenly Heart: Fresh pink with gold shimmer.

For application, I'm using my clean finger to apply it on my cheeks. Dot dot dot and blend, hahaha. They're buildable, so be careful if you don't want to look like a clown. Since the pigmentation is pretty good, 2 layers is enough to get the intensity that I want. Very natural looking ^^

Because I feel a bit oily (maybe because it's the first time I'm using cream blush) so I layer it again with a little bit of Canmake Cheek & Cheek and it makes them last longer. This cream cheek spreads easily on my cheeks and not sticky at all.

Because it gives glowy cheeks, has gold shimmer, and a bit oily, I prefer to use this cream cheek at night. I have combination skin (normal-oily) but the oily thing from this cream cheek is still tolerable. I'm so happy to live here in Bandung that have cold weather at night. The shimmer is not overwhelming and it doesn't noticeable except you look closely.

They last up to 5 hours on my cheeks when I wear it at night and note that I always give a thin layer of Canmake Cheek & Cheek. After 5 hours, they start to fade away. Pretty good, right? =D

For the price, IMO they're expensive. They didn't mention how many grams of product on the packaging but they are very small. Since they are gift, I don't know about the price, LOL!

Look how small they are on my hand >.<

Made in Japan.

Overall:
Pros:
  • Have a lot of beautiful shades to choose
  • Long lasting
  • Pigmented
Cons:
  • Hard to find in Indonesia
  • Expensive
  • Cheap plastic packaging

I would say that I really recommended this product and I would love to purchase another shades.

Now the swatches especially for you my beautiful readers ^^

T - B: #11 & #07 (without flash)

T - B: #11 & #07 (with flash)

T - B: #11 & #07 (blended)

Click the picture to enlarge so you can see the golden shimmer :) 

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoy =D

New Members In My Stash Part 2

Hello Beautiful ^^
Oh, it's already Saturday again and it's cloudy outside. Do you have a plan for tonight? I don't, hahaha..So it's me, eating my Ruffles and drinking my Milo while I write this post, hehehe...

I have a new stuffs that I bought from several local online shops and I hope this is not too much >.<


There's some new blushes (I really love blushes), nail polishes, and false lashes =D

Blushes
I ordered 7 new blushes from local online shop and I guess they got this from CherryCulture.com because they said that I can check the price from CherryCulture.com and using a formula to convert the USD to IDR. Me and my beauty blogger's friend, Alvianti, order some stuffs from them and we have to wait for almost 1 month until we received them on our hands. Horray! Oh, there was a sale on CC for several items that still on going until now and maybe you want to check them out! I like this online shop because their price is fluctuate depends on CC's price and that's make their price cheaper when there's a sale on CC while the other local online shop's price is fixed. I think this is a best deal that I don't wanna missed XD

L to R:
NYX Powder Blush in Mocha & Pinky
Milani Baked Blush in Dolce Pink, Rose D'Oro, & Corallina
Jordana Color Tint Blush Stick in Blushed & Rose Petal
Price (approximately):
NYX Powder Blush: @ Rp 57500,-
Milani Baked Blush: @ Rp. 80000,-
Jordana Color Tint Blush Stick: @ Rp. 35000,-
Bought from TwentySeven Shop

False Lashes
I bought this from local online shop because there's a promo during September, buy 2 get 2 free random, hahaha..So I bought 2 pairs and I got 4 pairs. This is my first time buying false lashes ever >.<

The seller is very nice and kind. She answered my questions patiently and gives me fast response day and night, hahaha..

Oh, I just remember that I don't have the glue, ROFL!


Price: @ Rp. 25000,-

Nail Polish
I bought this nail polish from Multiply.com together with my beauty blogger's friend, Alvianti. She asked me if I want to try The Face Shop Lovely ME:EX Nails, so I think it's okay because they're ready stock, so we don't have to pre order although it's Korean brand and it's cheap, hehehe...

TFS Lovely ME:EX Nails in BL601 & PK102
Price: @ Rp 15000,-
Bought from RieButik

Free Samples
Oh, I almost forgot, me and Alvianti got 2 free samples from RieButik but Alvianti gives all the samples to me. She is so sweet ^^


The first one is Collagen Moistfull Firming Eye Cream from Etude House and the second one is Gold Caviar Collagen Serum from Skin Food. Seriously, I don't know how to use these, LOL!

Okay that's all of my new members in my stash and thanks for reading ^^

New Members In My Stash Part 1

Hello everyone, how are you gals? Anybody miss me? Hehehe...
So, today I wanna share about my new beauty items that I have recently and a bit story behind it. Maybe you can call it mini haul but let me call it "new members in my stash", hahaha. I have 4 new items:
1. Canmake Cheek & Cheek 03 Gerbera Kiss
2. Canmake Cheek & Cheek 04 Love Blossom
3. Canmake Cream Cheek 07 Coral Orange
4. Canmake Cream Cheek 11 Heavenly Heart (I pick this up because I love the name, LOL)

I know that Canmake is not available in Indonesia but still, you can get them from local online shop although I think the price is expensive and it's not affordable for me, so I ask my boyfriend to help me to get these Canmake blushes in Singapore because I know the price would be cheaper, hahaha. A few weeks ago, my boyfriend (which live in Batam) went to Singapore so I sent the picture of these Canmake blushes to him so he can buy correctly and told him that he can get these items in Watsons. 

Actually, I only want 1 Cheek & Cheek and 1 Cream Cheek because I know the price is not really cheap but I really wanna try Canmake blushes since there is a lot of great review about them from beauty blogger. I said to him for Cheek & Cheek I want #03 or #04 and for Cream Cheek I want #07 or #11. Surprisingly, he bought all of the colours that I asked to him, hahaha. He said he was confuse so it's better picked up all of the colour that I wanted, LOL!

Oh, I asked him to get Jelly Beans and Ruffles too. I like Jelly Beans because I can get a lot of flavor in one container and I always love to pick one colour and check the flavor on the back of the container, LOL! Their flavor always surprise me because it taste like a real fruit. And for Ruffles, I actually not really like potato chips because it always makes my throat itchy or sore. But this potato chips taste really good and makes me addicted. Even my brother love it very much and I gave him 1 pack of Ruffles because my boyfriend gave me 2 packs and I know I can't eat all of them >.<

My lovely boyfriend bought seaweed and pistachios nuts too because he knows that I really like it! He bought it on local supermarket in Batam. We met last weekend when he visited me in Bandung. He gave me a lot of stuffs and he just like a Santa Claus, hahaha. He was in Bandung for 2 days only and we really have a good time together. Now he already back to Batam for working. I miss him so bad :(

So here is all the stuffs that my boyfriend gave me ^^



L to R, T to B: Cream Cheek #11 & #07, Cheek & Cheek  #04 & #03
Thank you so much to my boyfriend. I really love these, Darling :*

Thanks for reading and I will review them soon. I just haven't open it yet because it's too cute >.<
