This time I got a lip tint from Barenbliss shades No. 1 Paradise Found.
The texture is a bit sticky (no problem for me), it has a peach scent, I also like the color because it's a neutral color, not too much. But after you eat something, it will disappear, but it can't be touched up. Oh yes, the packaging is also cute like a mica box with a triangular tip.
Got a sample of Effaclar Serum Ultra Concentration from La Roche-Posay and this is my first time using a product from La Roche-Posay. For this serum, the texture is liquid, not greasy, a bit sticky for me but it absorbs quickly, but it's really light, there's no weird smell. Well, this serum is suitable for acne-prone/oily skin because this serum helps to fight acne, disguise pores, blemishes due to acne, and uneven skin texture. Use it at night.
I've been using it for a week at first, but I was scared because I have sensitive skin, I used it every night and the results were amazing. What they claim really shows the results. My acne scars are starting to fade, my big pores are getting smaller, my face is actually so smooth I've never had my face so smooth. Even hormonal acne due to the onset of the month is controlled and not overwhelming and I also use this serum to help relieve redness on the face. My mom also said my face is better than before.
Their key ingredients are actually great including Salicylic Acid, LHA, Niacinamide, Thermal Water. Later you can search for the benefits of the ingredients yourself. Anyway, this serum is really safe for those with sensitive skin, DERMATOLOGIST TESTED, HYPOALLERGENIC, and NON-COMEDOGENIC.
I got a sample from NARS Cosmetics so this is Pure Radiant Tinted Moisturizer with SPF 30/PA+++, the texture is similar to BB cream and can be used as a primer or as a substitute for foundation. The texture is really light and easy to blend.
I got several shades and the ones I have tried are the Finland and Gotland shades. The Finland one is suitable for a slightly light face tone, when I use it, it's fine, but it does tone up a bit so it looks like white, but not too much, it's still ok. Well, this Gotland is suitable for those with slightly beige skin tones. Because it's a little darker than Finland and the Gotland one really blends in with my skin tone.
I also like this Tinted Moisturizer because the results are dewy, and there is a hydrating effect too. After all, if you want to clean it, it's also easy, you don't need extra. I've been using it for almost a month and it doesn't make any pimples or blackheads.
As for the price, it's over budget for me, but I think I'll buy the full-size because it's really comfortable to wear. Anyway, it has a lot of shades, so all you have to do is ask the beauty advisor and match your facial tone when you come to their store or at Sephora, it seems there are.
Shampoo sample from L'occitane I got several variants. There are gentle & balance, volume & strength, and intensive repair. All of the scents are calming typical of L'occitane's shampoo and all the shampoos are non-silicone, so don't be surprised if the foam isn't too much, but it feels a bit like a doormat when you wash your hair.
Intensive repair shampoo & conditioner: this is suitable for damaged, dry, and brittle hair. Makes hair easier to manage after shampooing and makes it smoother. The conditioner, it's not too thick, the texture is light.
Volume & strength shampoo: helps strengthen and thicken brittle hair. After wash, the hair is easy to manage. But I personally don't like this one because the next day my hair becomes a bit limp and my scalp itches.
Gentle & balance: this one is suitable for all hair types, it helps to clean dirt and excess oil while protecting and maintaining the natural balance of the scalp (PH Balance). This is what I like the most and fits perfectly. Because it reduces itching on my sensitive scalp, the next day I don't wash my hair, it's still good. Even though I don't use conditioner, my hair is still soft, not limp, easy to manage too. Still going back and forth to buy gentle & balance because the price is also over budget for me.
Hello guys! A little update after such a long hibernation. I got a rhythm being a wife, I cut my hair very short, I'm kinda more active on Instagram right now, I got some "work from home" project, and now... I am struggling with cockroaches in my kitchen :( then.. what else? Oh, yeah... I got a new pair of a soft lens and it was really comfortable to wear also they have a soft lens with a minus. It's Lacelle Jewel from Bausch+Lomb and it has 3 colors: Amber Brown, Peridot Green, Melanite Black. So far, I wore Peridot Green and Amber Brown colors. Not forget to mention they also have Renu Colour, it's a softlens water that is good for color softlens. You can buy it at Optik Seis and official store Bausch+Lomb at Tokopedia, Shopee, Lazada, and Blibli.
Introducing body wash products that suitable for babies and even for adults, AVEENO. I got Aveeno soothing relief creamy wash and Aveeno skin relief body wash. I tried their soothing relief creamy wash as my routine body wash the texture is creamy as the name and it has no added fragrance so the smell isn't aromatic like common body wash. It is suitable for dry skin and sensitive skin. After using this, I felt my skin was moist and also reduce my prickly heat on my body. Not to forget to mention, you can use these products before shaving. Next for the skin relief body wash, I haven't tried it yet but this one has a little bit aromatic but not too strong, the smell like baby body wash, smooth and I love it.
