[SPONSORED REVIEW] Whitening Toner from Sarange, Sinseonhan

Hello! ♥
It's been so long to update my blog. It might be hard to keep you all reading my blog after being so hard to be active *cry*

So, Sociolla gave me this beautiful package on June. Damn pretty ♥

I'm surprised of getting this one since it's a whitening toner from Korea! XD. This one is my second toner from Korea that I have ever tried. My first one is History of Whoo Gongjinhyang. I don't compare these two since I'm run out of Gongjinhyang >_<

Sinseonhan (Natural Phyto Whitening Toner) is specially made to enhance beauty of skin. It's also made for all skin type. How can it be so great?

As their official site claims that it contains Aloe, Lavender, Chamomile and Purslane as their natural ingredients, I think this is good! Plus, it helps you to  balance skin PH level and remove dead skin, beside moisturizing and brightening your skin.

And I've tried this for 1.5 months, so let me bring you some review of this product:

♥♥♥ Packaging (4/5):
It's a tall and thick mild white plastic bottle plus a solid white cap with pump in it. Yes, it comes with pump and the pump itself is bouncy, so it's easy to control the amount you wanna take. I actually love how secure the packaging is. The only thing I don't really like is the size. It's too tall so less travel friendly.

When I took a holiday trip to USA and Canada, I poured some of the products into a smaller plastic with pump so I can use it.

♥♥♥ Color, Scent and Texture (5/5):
It is colorless. It's so watery and it easily absorbs into my skin. The scent is kinda calming and flowery. I feel I can smell Chamomile scent and I love it!

♥♥♥ Ingredients (3/5):
Internet doesn't provide its complete list so it's kinda hard to tell, but i would believe this product is good since it feels nothing wrong. It is like typical Korean skincare toner, it would be so watery, transparent into mild colors and calming scent, so I hope the ingredients itself is fine.

Beside it claims it has Aloe, Lavender, Chamomile and Purslane, it also contains Hyaluronic Acid, which is good for moisturizing and hydrating skin. I have (dehydrated) oily skin so I need something to hydrate my skin but it doesn't clog my pores or makes my face breakout. This one works well.

♥♥♥ Effectiveness (5/5):
As i mentioned before in ingredients, it works well! It really works like it claims. Too bad I have no before photos. However, I believe it works since it helps me to remove dead skin in nose area. It also hydrates my skin well and it doesn't bring my face a nightmare!! ♥  Muchie love~
I don't know if it helps me to brighten my skin but it helps to repair my skin as well. I don't need to cover my face with foundation as much as I used to be. I can wear less foundation. How can I not fall into this?

For the price itself, it is sold for Rp. 269.900 (USD 21). I don't think it's pricey since it has huge amount product (130 ml) and it's pretty affordable for korean skincare line.

♥♥♥ Pros:

1. It absorbs into my skin perfectly

2. It is watery and it has natural scent so it makes a great toner 

3. It works as it claims. ♥

4. They're easy to find, especially Sociolla offers this line on the site

♥♥♥ Cons:

1. It doesn't put complete ingredients list.

2. It has kinda bulky packaging so if you wanna travel around, pump some products to smaller container ;D

If you like to use it, you can use it by using cotton. Pump it twice onto cotton and apply on againsts grativity XD Easy!

Click this pic to grab this toner ;)

Psst, if you wanna get some discount, you can use FLOIRESAN50 in Sociolla when you wanna checkout!

Here's my review about this product. Thank you for reading ♥

I don’t know how many products I have to review in this blog because of my laziness. Ugh. I have too many things to keep this blog up but my mood doesn’t want to. EWH. This post had been in my draft for 2 months HAHAHAH so long.

I know  I’m too slow when it comes to “trend” because I’m not the one who like to buy anything hype with no to little good review *sorry*. I don’t wanna spend my money to buy something I don’t use them well.

[Review + Swatch] Another lippie in my drawer ♥

Hey, Lovely! ♥
I'm back to review these lip products. I've told you before on this post and this is the complete reviews of them all.

I'm not the person who follows all the trends. All the freaking trends worldwide. So, i'm kinda outdated of the recent things in beauty products. All the products have been reviewed by many bloggers so it might be not "interesting" anymore.

[Review + Swatch] L.A Girls Glazed Lip Paint in Tease and Gleam

Hi, Lovely! It’s been a while, huh! I've updated some photos about my new play kit but I don’t update much in my blog. I think it’s harder to update in my blog, I don’t know why. My mood swings  much~ Eng .. no, no at all. *cough* 

Alright, so you may call me as a old-fashioned lady or outdated. I don’t buy latest collection but yeah, I don’t mind. I wanna buy what I want. I recently fall into lip products. Lipstick, Liquid Lipstick, Colorful Lipstick, everything beside lip gloss. Lip gloss obviously have glossy finish and it makes my lip look too oily. Ew. Another negative point of lip gloss in me is too sticky and I don’t like it. At all.

Then, it comes into a “trend” called liquified lipstick and lip paint. The well named products are Too Faced Melted and L.A Girl Glazed Lip Paint (so many people call it as the Melted's dupe!). 

I picked Glazed one because it's incredibly affordable and I don't think I wanna splurge money in lip product. Splurging money in lip product is a waste in me because whenever I eat, I'll keep "kissing" my food with my lips! XD

Let's start to my first lip paint!

♥♥♥ Packaging (4/5):
For affordable product, this packaging wins my heart. It comes in a plastic tube in glossy look with a slanted plastic applicator. This kinda applicator is efficient because I can apply it on my lips easily with no additional tool, like lip brush. However, this kinda applicator is hard to apply in a perfect shape.This product is travel friendly and colorful. The "glazed" tube is amazing. 

♥♥♥ Ingredients (5/5):

I love how it is composed. It contains seed oil, mineral oil and peppermint leaf oil and no any harmful chemical, even Paraben. It's kinda rare to find in drugstore products. Since it contains peppermint leaf oil, I can feel the "cool" feeling from peppermint. Me likey. XD

♥♥♥ Color (2/5):
I pick Tease and Gleam. Tease is a bright shocking pink, but I think it's more into Magenta, purple ish tone. Gleam is golden brown one in a warm tone. Both of them have glitters in but Tease one is chunkier. They're superb pigmented and it covers my lips perfectly.

If you think I am happy with the colors I pick, no, I am not. At all. They're superb disappointing. I checked its official site and the color is totally different and it doesn't make me happy.

The official version:

What I've got:

Left to Right:

Gleam and Tease (freshly applied), Gleam and Tease (dried)

Duh duhh duhh.. I used to see the swatches in its official site, but it becomes a valuable lesson to learn. You should check swatches in bloggers, vloggers or whoever have the product earlier. They would look beautiful in lighter skin tone. It's definitely NOT for me.

Longevity (3/5):
It stays good for 4-6 hours with no oily food. It's kinda so so because it needs to touch up every after meal time.

♥♥♥ Finishing Effect (4/5):

The effect is kinda shimmered look with a glossy finish. It looks pretty and it would help to conceal cracked lips. However, I'm a lil bit annoyed of the chunky glitter in Tease. Too much for me.

So, here pros and cons:

♥♥♥  Pros:

- Affordable

- Pigmented and it covers lip perfectly

- Travel friendly

♥♥♥ Cons:

- The color turns much brighter/darker and it's totally different from its official site.

- The applicator is not easy to make a perfect lip shape

- Tease has chunky glitter

- Need to touch up every after meal.

Overall result is 3.6 and it's average. 

If you wanna ask me to repurchase, I think I will not. It's too glossy and I think I'm not into glossy that much.

Here's my look with Glazed Lip Paint:

Do you have this lip paint? What do you think?:D

Thanks for reading, Lovely! ♥

[Short Review] My new hair story by Fresh Light Clear Ash + Garnier Color Naturals Darkest Choco

[Sponsored Review] Pull your stubborn head by B.liv Off With Those Heads ♥

Hello, Lovely! ♥
Today is my second review and it is about my current skincare product. It is b.liv off with those heads. This product is definitely the product I wanna have in my entire life.

FYI, my skin doesn't have too much trouble. My skin is somewhat oily and it's also dehydrated (not dry skin type!) and I have some stubborn blackheads on my skin. Every time I get blackheads, I will always try to pull it off by squeezing blackheads with my fingers. Duh, it hurts, indeed! Moreover, some people believe that by pulling your black/white heads, it will make your pores bigger. My skin also has big pores everywhere :/

But today, I don't have to squeeze my blackheads anymore ^^v

Wanna know about this product? Let's see about the product and how it works on me!

[Review] Current Collagen Drink, Ivi Premium Collagen ♥

Hello, Lovely! ♥♥

Have you ever try a health or beauty drink? I rarely have it since too many harmful product out there. And this is one of my current beauty drink and I know it really works. *wink

Today, I wanna share and review my current beauty drink. It is Ivi Premium Collagen :D

♥♥♥ Packaging (5/5):

It has a very cute box in soft pink and has Sakura printing on it. It is also well packed! Tear the box and you will find 14 sachets in it! This is recommended to consume for 14 days :D

Precaution, Directions and Ingredients ;) It is also registered on FDA.

I consume a sachet for a day to compliments my daily intake.

♥♥♥ Ingredients (5/5):

I love the ingredients in it since it has L-Cystine beside Collagen. It's one of the most well-known nutrients to maintain our skin texture. Selenium is also good for overall health of an individual. Sounds promising? ;) Yes, it is! 

♥♥♥ Texture and Color(1/5):

It is on powder form and the texture is quite harsh. It feels like a sand.. and a lil bit sticky. For the color, it's in yellowish. I do not like the powder because it leaves much residue in the plastic back :/ 

♥♥♥ Smell and Flavor (1/5):

I rarely take drugs and supplement in my life, especially marine one. This collagen drink is extracted from Hydrolyzed Marine Collagen and SOP (Salmon Ovary Peptide), a real "marine" supplement. It has little fishy smell -____- And the flavor is also terrible. I'd like to mix my chlorophyll powder and drink it altogether. Duh..

♥♥♥ Effectiveness (5/5):

I have no doubt! It is effective to compliment my daily intake and plus, to achieve smoother skin ;) I have no photo to show because my skin texture is hard to capture on the camera :/

And the whole result is 3. A very small number, isn't it? 

However, I will repurchase and recommend it for its effectiveness ^^ ! This is a beauty yet healthy drink, literally! I love it! I don't have to worry since all the nutrients are great. However, if you want to consume any collagen drink, please make sure it is adequate. Each individual has different intake. Don't consume it too much because it will harm your body. Please consider yourself by consuming it in right way ;)

I got mine from Perfect Beauty, one of the well-known and professional online store in Indonesia. They provide many make up and skincare products, especially Japanese brand ones. This is not sponsored but I got mine for free! :P

This is free because I gave them a feedback of a questionnaire and they gave it for 1000 lucky participants! I was emailed and I gave my honest feedback. I was so shocked because I am one of the lucky participants XD 

If you want to know the price, it is Rp. 499.000 ($41.5). It is pricey but it is worth! It is an effective collagen drink and it is from Japan. LOL. /shoot myself

[Review] My current love, Bioderma ♥

Hello, Lovely! ♥

Back to another product reviews, I wanna review my currently "in love" product. They're somewhat cool for me. They're great products and are safe for sensitive skin! It should be your favorite if you're in difficulty to find right products.

It is Bioderma. Do you know Bioderma? It is one of famous skincare brand from France. :D

Bioderma Laboratories is a privately owned French pharmaceutical company that specialises in medication for dermatological and hair / scalp conditions, as well as for Pediatry and cell regeneration. - Wikipedia

Does it sounds promising? :P

One of the most popular product from Bioderma is Sensibio H2O. Sensibio H2O is a non-rinse product and it won't leave any residue on your skin. Moreover. this product is so watery, no alcohol and no paraben. What a great product! :D

And, Bioderma is now available in Indonesia. I was not into skincare thingy for years until I got too much black heads on my face. So, I tried to find many kinds of skincare but I am still very picky! Because my blackheads and acne will always come when I use wrong products, especially facial wash.

Well, I've used Sensibio H2O for months and I love it!

I was ran out of facial foam and make up remover, so I decided to buy both of them. I asked my mom to buy them since she was going to mall. I asked her to purchase Bioderma Sébium Gel moussant and Sébium H2O since my skin type is oily one. However, I forgot I had purchased Sensibio H2O one --" *Stupid Me* So, I have two make up remover right now.

And these were the products I had:

They're simple.. So simple. Let's review them:

First review is Sébium Gel Moussant:

♥♥♥ Packaging (4/5):

It's quite tall and not too bulky bottle. It is on thick clear plastic with green pump. However, it is "still" very tall to bring it everywhere (I mean, it is not for travelling purpose :P). Nothing special on this packaging because it really looks like a dermatology skin product. :3

♥♥♥ Description and Ingredients (3/5): 

They have clear statements about their products! They put it on 2 languages, French and English. However, the English one is covered by a label. The label is in Bahasa.

And since the ingredients list is difficult to capture, I will type it:

WATER (AQUA), SODIUM COCOAMPHOACETATE, SODIUM LAURETH SULFATE, METHYLPROPANEDIOL, DISODIUM EDTA, MANNITOL, XYLITOL, RHAMNOSE, FRUCTOOLIGOSACCHASTEARATE, LACTIC ACID, LAURETH-2, POTASSIUM SORBATE, SODIUM CHLORIDE, PROPYLENE GLYCOL, SODIUM HYDROXIDE, FRAGRANCE (PARFUM).

They have turquoise color but I don't know which "ingredient" makes it turn into turquoise. I tried to find its ingredients on Google and got some from Makeup Alley and CosDNA. Based on those site, I found "Ginkgo Biloba Extract". Perhaps it is because that extract, that is why the product has turquoise color.

If you compare it to those site, they have many differences on the list -_-" Dunno which one is true?

"Paraben Free" is labelled on mine. Perhaps, those site are true ones. Duh -_-" But I've asked Bioderma Indonesia on their Facebook Pages and they said that the product is Paraben free. So, which one is true? Meh :/

♥♥♥ Hygiene Level (5/5):

Simple. It is wrapped on plastic. If the plastic is torn, no need to buy. It is exactly hygienic because it has (roll? no! glide? ah what kind of pump it is!) simple pump. If you want to use this foam, just turn left :D

  

♥♥♥ Scent (3/5):

The scent is soooo medicine :s I don't like it.. It has similar scent to Sébium H2O one. On Sébium H2O, Ginkgo Biloba is written in the ingredients. Yep, it perhaps a "ginkgo" scent.

♥♥♥ Effectiveness (3/5):

It is quite ordinary facial foam. The only special thing is no foam. As my pic above, I put it on my hand and pour little water (and sure, I blended it). It doesn't produce any foam. It is good.

Most of all foam is from Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS/SLES). Based on this site, it can harm the vision of young people. If you find warnings on many shampoos and foams, you will know it why.   

Based on the ingredients, they don't have SLS. Such a good product (and perhaps, they're into organic product) :)

For Period After Usage (PAO) is in 6 months and the expiry date is printed on the bottom of the bottle. Do't forget to check its PAO and expiry date ;)

The whole result is 3.5. Such a small result! The gel foam is quite good and leaves cool effect on my skin, but I will think twice to repurchase. :/ But if you want to find SLS free facial foam, grab it! ;)

And let's go to the second review:

P.S: I will review both Sensibio H2O and Sébium H2O.

   

♥♥♥ Packaging (4/5):

The packaging reminds me of many dermatology skin products. They are in simple and clear plastic and they are not into decorations or cutey packaging. They're quite bulky and they're not travel-friendly. Need their travel-size product? They provide some. ;) The smallest size is in 100ml. You are safe to bring it everywhere!

And every line has their own color. Light red one is for Sensibio (sensitive skin) and Green is for Sébium (oily/combination skin).

 

Ingredients:

Sensibio H2O:

WATER (AQUA), PEG-6 CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC GLYCERIDES, CUCUMIS SATIVUS (CUCUMBER) FRUIT EXTRACT, MANNITOL, XYLITOL, RHAMNOSE, FRUCTOOLIGOSACCHARIDES, PROPYLENE GLYCOL, DISODIUM EDTA, CETRIMONIUM BROMIDE.

Sébium H2O:

WATER (AQUA), PEG-6 CAPRYLIC/CAPRIC GLYCERIDES, SODIUM CITRATE , ZINC GLUCONATE, COPPER SULFATE, GINKGO BILOBA LEAF EXTRACT, MANNITOL, XYLITOL, RHAMNOSE, FRUCTOOLIGOSACCHARIDES, PROPYLENE GLYCOL, CITRIC ACID, DISODIUM EDTA, CETRIMONIUM BROMIDE, FRAGRANCE (PARFUM).

♥♥♥ Description and Ingredients (4/5): 

Just like the gel moussant, they're such having clear statements about their products! They put it on 2 languages, French and English and the English one is covered by a label. The labels are definitions in Bahasa. Uh yey. For the ingredients itself, they are slightly different. 

If you think that Sébium one has coloring, you are wrong! They have no coloring here. It is blue since it has Ginkgo Biloba Leaf Extract. Based on this site, Ginkgo leaf can help protect skin from redness and inflammation during exposure to UVA/UVB light in a lab setting.

The only thing I don't like is "Fragrance". I don't know why they put it on Sébium one -_-"

P.S: Do take a note on their PADs (Period After Opening). They have different PADs. Sensibio H2O is in 12 months and Sébium is in 9 months.

The blue looks pretty here *o*. No, it's not blue. It's turquoise. 

♥♥♥ Hygiene Level (5/5):

They must be well-know of their hygiene product. They have quite good seal on Sensibio and Sébium H2O. The seal is quite strong but it's quite easy to remove the seal.  And they also have tight caps. They don't let you pour their products everywhere ;)

♥♥♥ Scent (4/5):

For the scents, they have strong natural scents. For Sensibio, it is so "Cucumber" and Sébium is so "Ginkgo Biloba". If you have ever taken any Ginkgo medicine, you will find Sébium has that kind of scent :3 Unfortunately, I don't like its scent because so "medicine" :/

♥♥♥ Effectiveness (3/5):
Since it is non-rinse cleanser, it must need more time to remove all of the make up. As you can see those photos, they are not cleaning as much as oil-based remover one. It needs to swipe 3-4 times on your face.
But don't worry, it won't leave any residue anymore. And no need to rinse! ^3^ It freshens my skin.

My whole result is 4. Nice meh? :D
But well, you need to pay it in a high price. They're quite expensive but they're that worthy!!

P.S: Don't forget to check its expiry date ;) It is embossed on the bottom of the bottle.

And so, if you want to find them, you can buy it on Guardian stores in Jabodetabek, Bali, Surabaya and more. You can ask the availability on their Facebook Pages and Official Twitter :)

For the price, I was not sure because I lost my bill  -_-" But each products is approximately Rp. 200.000 (USD 17). Quite expensive, but they are worthy :3

And last but not the least, thanks for reading ♥♥♥
