[TIPS] Choose the best pair of lashes and BE STUNNING! [Part. 1] (English & Indonesian)

Hello, Lovely!
I'm so happy that I am able to share you about choosing the best pair for your eyes.
As we know, eyelash is one of the most important tool to achieve a beautiful eye look. However, many people choose wrong lashes for wrong occasion. -_- So, I wanna post this to help you for choosing the best pair in different occasions and its effect!

It is divided into two parts. The second part will be posted in two next posts. So, don't miss it!
It will be a very long post, so please be aware of heavy photos and long descriptions. AND super duper high editing photos here (high contrast and brightness). It helps me to describe the whole look.

//Hallo, Lovely!
Aku senang sekali bahwa aku bisa berbagi ke kalian untuk memilih bulu mata yang cocok untuk matamu.
Seperti yang kita tahu, bulu mata itu adalah salah satu alat yang penting untuk mendapatkan mata yang indah *tsah. Nah, banyak banget orang yang salah pilih waktu untuk menggunakan bulumata. Kali ini, aku menulis ini untuk membantu kalian agar dapat memilih bulu mata yang baik dan efek apa saja yang ada dimata mu!

Ini dibagi menjadi 2 bagian. Bagian kedua akan di post di dua post berikutnya. Ini adalah post yang sangat panjang jadi akan ada foto-foto yang berat dan penjelasan yang panjang) DAN tinggi sekali kontras dan brightness nya. Ini ngebantu aku untuk jelasin semua looknya.


P.S // Catatan::
There are some watermarks in different colors. They are:
// Ada beberapa garis tanda dengan warna yang berbeda. Warnanya:
1. Orange/Oranye: Straight Hairs (Natural effect) // Bulu berbentuk lurus (efek alami)
2. Purple/Ungu: Triangle Cutting (Spiky effect, dramatic) // Berbentuk segitiga (efek tajam, dramatis)
3. Blue/Biru: Tied Straight Hairs (Less natural effect) // Bulu halus yang terikat (sedikit efek alami)
4. Green/Hijau: Thicker area (Focus area) // Area yang lebih tebal (untuk memperjelas area)

Spot your favorite? :P
// Ada kah yang fave mu?


Then the looks area // Dan look nya adalah:

1. Japanese Girly Style
This girly and kawaii style (well, not me!) is very hoooot in Japan (and also other countries are!). Mostly, this eye look is achieved for "Romantic Gyaru" look or Kawaii Japan girls. This look is very popular because of Tsubasa Masuwaka. She is a very cute Gyaru icon. Really cute! Nah, this is my choice for first look.

// Gaya ke"cewe"an dan kawaii ini (ya ga gue banget) ini terkenal bangeeet di Jepang (di negara lain juga). Kebanyakkan, look ini untuk "Romantic Gyaru" gitu atau yang cewe-cewe Jepang yang kawaii. Look ini terkenal banget karena Tsubasa Masuwaka. Dia itu ikon Gyaru yang sangaat imut! Ini pilihanku buat look pertama.




Dolly Wink #1 is a combination of purple and orange type. They have triangle cutting and straight hairs. The effect is less dramatic eyes. They are dramatic enough but not "too much". It's very suitable for sweet Gyaru Look!
Dolly Wink #5 is a perfect choice for Dolly Wink #1 for me. They have thin triangle cutting and it suits #1 well. Its triangle cutting makes "wink" and "dramatic" effect at the same time. Wink your eyes, ladies <3

//Dolly Wink #1 ini kombinasi dari ungu dan oranye. Bulu mata ini memiliki potongan segitiga dan bulu lurus. Efek nya "less dramatic". Mereka efek nya dramatis tapi ga lebay, tentunya. Cocok banget sama look nya Gyaru yang manis.
Dolly Wink #5 ini adalah pilihan terbaik buat #1 ya menurutku. Karena mereka punya potongan segitiga yang tipiiis dan jadinya cocok. Alasannya karena segitiga nya itu kan bikin efek dramatis, tapi karena tipis jadinya efek nya dramatis dan "wink" di saat yang bersamaan. Jadinya akan sangat imut!

2. Dolly Girl Style
Ugh, if I have to compare this look to the first look, it will be very confusing! This look makes your eyes more "dolly". It has bigger eyes effect than the first look. It also suits into sweet and romantic Gyaru. Oh well, it can be also very good for Hime Gyaru!
// Ugh, kalau harus ngebandingin look yang ini sama yang pertama, bakal bingung abis! Efeknya ini tuh bikin mata lebih besar dan dolly gitu. Efek memperbesar mata nya lebih oke dibanding yang pertama. Ini juga cocok lho buat Gyaru yang sweet dan romantic. Dan cocok juga untuk Hime Gyaru.

Bzbzzz weird pose!



Daiso #726 is very unique and cute lashes. The purple and blue part is combined. So, it makes more dramatic in your eyes. Dolly look is achieved! It has triangle cutting at inner corner area. It gives you a very cute wink effect. The rest cross lashes part gives you less natural look. Soooo, dolly!
Dolly Wink #14 and #5 are having identical look, however #14 has thicker area on its edges. It gives dolly effect and sure, not too much look. Psst, it is one of my favorite eyelashes. I can't stop using this lashes!

//Daiso $726 ini adalah bulumata yang unik dan imuttt banget! Ini gabungan dari bagian ungu dan biru. Jadinya lebih dramatis deh efeknya!! Dapet banget buat dolly look. Ala-ala boneka. Ada bagian potongan segitiga di bagian inner corner nya. Jadinya efek nya "wink" gitu. Sedangkan sisanya itu bagian yang terikat gitu, jadinya ada efek alami tapi tidak terlalu alami (?). Bisa dikatakan ini lebih "wow" dibanding yang pertama.
Dolly Wink $13 sama #5 bentuk nya emang mirip tapi bedanya #14 itu ada bagian segitiga nya yang lebih tebal (sorry ga ada tanda hijau nya, abis mirip XD). Efeknya jelas bakal dolly sekali tapi ga lebay tentunya. Psst, ini salah satu bulumata favoritku lho, Paling sering pakai ini!

3. Sexy Gyaru Look
Sexier, Hotter, and still so Japanese look? Hope my looks achieve it all! This look doesn't make a wink effect at all. It makes your eyes look big and fierce. Hmm mostly, this look is suitable for egg or ageha magazine models. They are less sweet but they surely have a very cool look.
// Lebih seksi dan hot tapi masih look Japan gitu? Ya semoga dapet dehhh di foto ini! Ini ga ada efek wink nya di mata sama sekali. Efek ini bikin mata mu besar dan mungkin "garang". Hmm, ini sebenarnya look yang lebih cocok ke arah look seperti model egg/ageha. Mereka tidak terlalu manis tapi keren skali looknya!




Diamond Lash Volume Series #3 has thicker area in the middle. It gives a focus area on your iris. Yes, it gives rounder eye effect! and it should be blue area ... not orange (gomenasai!) I will reupload soon. No more natural look, so dramatic!
Diamond Lash First Series #4 has thicker areas on several spots and some tied hair on other spots. More volume effect is a perfect pair for rounder eye effect. It is the best pair I've ever have so far.

//Diamond Lash Volume Series #3 ada area yang lebih tebal di tengahnya. Ini memberikan fokus pada bagian iris (ya bola mata lho!). Jadi efeknya mata mu lebih bulat. Dan seharusnya itu warna biru.. bukan orange. Okay, ntar ku ganti de, maaf T_T Jadi ga ada alami sama sekali! Yuhuu dramatis banget.
Diamond Lash First Series #4 ada bagian yang lebih tebal di beberapa bagian dan yang bulu terikat nya juga beberapa bagian. Ada efek lebih ber volume di bulu mata ini dan sempurna banget buat yang ingin mata nya besar besar XD

4. Natural Daily Look
Not to mention, this look is so ordinary. However, it can be applied for daily look. So, here's my look!
//Ga perlu dibilang, emang biasa aja sih. Tapi ini bisa lho dipakai setiap hari. Jadi ini looknya~




Melliesh #03 and Bilqis #1405 are so thin and look natural. Bilqis one has tied hair but it looks so natural because of their oval shape. Prepare my daily day with these lashes and you will never get wrong!
I have a very strong reason NOT to choose "straight" hair for bottom lashes. It look weird and fake if you have both straight lashes on upper and bottom lashes.
//Melliesh #03 dan Bilqis #1405 ini sangat tipis dan alami. Bilqis punya si emang bulu terikat tapi tetap terlihat natural karena bentuknya agak oval gitu. Jadi buat persiapan sehari-hari dan ga akan "saltum!"
Alasan ku tidak memilih bulu yang lurus juga untuk di bulu mata bawah itu karena akan aneh dan keliatan palsu kalau dua duanya bulu lurus (baik bulu mata atas maupun bawah).

5. Party Look
Now, party look! Need to be dramatic and stunning look? Here's mine!
//Sekarang, tampilan untuk pesta! Pengen tampilan yang menonjol dan dramatis. Ini lah look ku!




Secret Star Girl #Ss. 1 is a very dramatic model. It has a very black thick lashes and it is triangle cutting. It isn't suitable for daily look at all. It is very good for party look. And I've ever told you in my last review, it's not really long one. Quite petite. So, it doesn't look very dramatic on my eyes (my eyes is very small and monolid ones). Be stunning on your party and GO!
Dolly Wink #8 is very natural lashes in straight hair. It should be very good for natural look, but it also helps your party look. Why? Don't take dramatic lashes for your bottom lashes if your upper is very "dramatic" and "thick". People will look at your lashes, NOT your eyes! They are good match to make beautiful eyes and not too much!
//Secret Star Girl #Ss. 1 ini model nya dramatis, pake banget! Ini bulumata yang sangat hitam dan potongan nya segitiga ... Jadi ya sangat tebal sekali. Ini ga cocok buat sehari-hari. Jelas cocok nya buat pesta. Dan uda pernah ku review juga kalau bulu mata ini termasuk pendek (alias bantet). Jadinya di mataku malah kurang dramatis karena mataku kecil dan monolid.
Dolly Wink #8 tuh bulumata yang sangat natural  dengan bulu yang berbentuk lurus. Yang seharusnya malah cocok sama look yang alami. Tapi ini juga nolong banget lho buat look party. Alasan nya jika kamu pakai yang dramatis juga buat bulumata bawah, yang orang lihat malah bulumata mu, bukan matamu sendiri (bisa dikira penyanyi dangdut ... kan ga lucu -__- ). Jadinya ini bakal cocok banget dan ga lebay!

So, what do you think, Lovely? This is my first part (yeah, second part will be soon posting) of choosing the best pair on lashes. Drop your opinion and suggestions below. Thanks for reading !
//Jadi bagaimana menurutmu, Lovely? Ini bagian pertama (ya, bakal ada bagian kedua) untuk memilih bulumata yang sempurna. Ada opini dan saran/kritik bisa melalui comment box nya ya. Makasih sudah membaca blog ini!

[Event] Estee Lauder International Makeup Artist Event at Mall Taman Anggrek

Hello, Lovely! ♥♥
Yesterday, I went to a beauty event from Estee Lauder. They held an event in Metro Atrium, Mall Taman Anggrek at February, 21st, and they brought an International Make Up Artist named William Kim! Wow, it's a very nice event ~

I was invited by Lidia several days ago. She asked me for my availability to join this event yesterday. I came there with my friend, Lumielle. I was so surprised because it was very sudden. I was nervous to go to beauty event since I was still new (not really new, indeed) in beauty.

The International Make Up Artist, William Kim, represented us how to have our make up in proper way. You can ask many things to him because he knows how to have a 'wearable' make up. Let me say, I have learnt a lot from him yesterday. He told us how to use foundation and finishing powder well in a small amount and so on! I was so ashamed because I'm still having wrong way to put my make up on -_-

Well, these are the photos I've captured yesterday ^^

Erfan and Wulan were the MC for this event. They brought it well!

[Review] Redyeing my hair into RED again by Syoss!

Hello, Lovely! ♥♥
Have you ever known that if our colored hair can be faded very early? It happens on me, again. My lovely red hair color was faded. Yes, it turned into ..... ORANGE. Well, it didn't turn into citrus orange color, indeed. However, it looked like a lil bit orange and my black root has been growing lately. It was about 1.5 into 2 cm. It's kinda annoying for me :p

So, I decided to "re-touch" my hair by myself. I thought I would buy a "bubble foam" hair dye since it has lighter texture and easier to apply. However, I didn't find any "ready stock" red bubble foam hair dye in Indonesia's online shop stores. I also didn't find it on drugstores .... I'm so impatient. I wanna retouch it soon! Very soon! -____- So,  I took a cream based one.

I was going to Guardian at Central Park Mall to buy some stuffs and I found Syoss Professional Performance Hair Dye. I found it interesting because it has a pretty red hair color LOL. I bought #5-89 Dark Ruby Red. It's a permanent coloration hair dye. YEYEY, retouch retouch ! LOL.

This is my awful hair:

It isn't really visible. I think the color is washed in this photo.

Nah, orange hair and black roots T_T

Then, the product I purchased is Syoss:


The ingredients and the content sections.


Short description, instructions in Bahasa and its color chart. It has a pretty red color!

Nah, this is the things in this box. You will get them all in every hair dye product!

Left to Right: Developer Emulsion, Color Cream, Instruction and gloves, Conditioner

I'm sorry I'm too lazy to write its instruction, LOL. It's easy to use. Simply wear your gloves and put the color cream on the developer emulsion's bottle and shake them! You don't need to prepare any plate and chopsticks to stir them. Simply shake them and apply it on your hair! :D

AND, this is the result (after applying conditioner and shampooing!)

 
Sorry, another washed photo -_-


Then, comes into review:
♥♥Color (5/5) :
 It has a very pretty color! It appears as I expected! It has a very good red~
♥♥Smell (3.5/5) :
 The smell  is not very bad and not really stink. Good then
♥♥Quantity (5/5):
The quantity is too much, indeed! LOL. It is too much for medium hair. Perhaps it will be enough for long hair (1-3 cm under shoulder).

BUT, it's really hot to apply! I think the performance is too "harsh" so it can be applied for 15 to 20 minutes. 

Unfortunately, my black root isn't colored at all. DUH, still really black. I think it's because of different hair color. My hair is bleached and my root isn't. So, it isn't colored at all.

So, the whole score is 4! :D

What do you think about this hair dye? I think I will repurchase them if I wanna change my hair color again XD.

If you wanna purchase it, you can simply go to famous drugstores and supermarkets like Guardian, Watson, Carrefour, Hero, etc! I'm not really sure about the price, but it is about Rp. 76.000 to Rp. 79.000. i'm not really sure, but the price is quite reasonable :D

Thank for reading, Lovely! ♥♥

[Sponsored Review + FOTD] Secret Star Girl Lashes #Ss. 1 Sexy Lash & #Ks. 5 Under Lash

Hello, Lovely! ♥♥
Today, I wanna review eyelashes again! Sorry if it's boring ><
To be honest, I'm into eyelashes too much! The beauty products I can't stop buy is eyelashes. I can't stop and wanna have other models ( T___T)o

And I got two boxes of eyelashes in the end of January. I got mine from Coccinelle Cosmetic. 
Coccinelle Cosmetic is an online shop which provides various Korean cosmetic products.
As we might know, Korean cosmetics are so famous these days. They have cute and pretty colors and the price is also reasonable.
However, their quality is used to be poor. I found it in 2011-2012.
Nowadays, their quality is improving and I think their best selling products also have good quality! Good for Korean cosmetics!
And if we talk about lashes, Korean brand lashes are used to have a very "fake" look. The models are also too natural and too ordinary. Nothing special. But I heard that korean brand is much improving and I start to believe them again.

One day, Coccinelle's owner offered me an endorsement. She wants me to endorse and review korean lashes. It is "Secret Start Girl Lashes". I got a box of upper lashes and a box of bottom lashes, #Ss. 1 Sexy Lash and #Ks. 5 Inder Lash. Let's take a look!




#Ss. 1 Sexy Lash





#Ks. 5 Under Lash

On my eyes: 



Secret Star Girl Lashes is a Korean lashes brand and the models are sooo korean! 
They have two type eyelashes, Secret Star Girl K-Style and S-Style. They also have 5 pairs pack but I think two pairs are enough :D
If you notice the brand ambassadors, they are Secret and Girl's Day. >_< They are so sexy and pretty aa~

Then let's come into the review:

#Ss. 1 Sexy Lash:
♥♥♥ Model (3/5):
The model is quite ordinary. It's very thick and spiky. Many Korean and Western brand lashes have this mode. Not really special but it's quite good because it's spiky!
♥♥♥ Look (3/5):
It looks good on my eyes because it has a deep black hair. Unfortunately, it is quite "petite". I mean, the length! If you take a look at Japanese brand, their lashes are quite long and spiky and less volume. These lashes are not really long and have more volume.

Well, I love Japanese lashes more because the models suit me better. I think I have to draw higher line on my eyelid to make bigger eyes by these lashes.
♥♥♥ Quality (4/5):
It almost hits its best! It has strong bend and deep black hair. They also don't look fake at all. However, they're quite hard to reshape and a little bit 'heavy'.

#Ks. 5 Under Lash:
♥♥♥ Model (4/5):
The model is also very ordinary but I give higher score because the shape is sooooo pretty and tidy!
♥♥♥ Look (4/5):
I love how it looks on my eyes, so natural. It doesn't look like a fake lashes at all XD
♥♥♥ Quality (5/5):
Wow, perfect quality for under lashes! They are natural yet strong. The shape is also tidy. Moreover, they don't look fake at all. Salute ♥

Love them!
And these are some FOTDs. It is inspired by romantic valentine look. ( >___<)o 





A lil bit blurry --"




Here is my look for Valentine Day, but I will celebrate it with my ... final examinations *sigh.

Wanna get them? Simply find Coccinelle Cosmetic here! They provide authentic Korean cosmetics ( >__<)o
