Review: Cussons Baby Cream Soft & Smooth

Hello hello  hello.. I love weekend blogging! How are you ladies (and gentlemen)?? Today I will review (again) a product that used for baby, but works for us too! Funny eh? I purchased this product while I was in baby product alley at a supermarket. I thought, this kinda interested! It is Cussons Baby Cream Soft & Smooth. Honestly I don't know the real function of this baby cream, I just thought this is just the same with body lotion for adult (but my friend said that this is for baby ass). Never mind! In fact I looovvveee this product, I choose Almond and Rose oil, and I use it for my hand cream.

This product has very nice smell, and creates smoothness! It is very light, not oily, just like water.. I think this product suits for those who have sensitive skin, considering this product meant for baby (am I right??). So these are the pictures..

This is the packaging. I choose this variant honestly because I love pink! :p

This is the back of the packaging.

This is the cream looks like. Interesting right?? :) Please remember I use this cream for my hand, not my body! hahaha


What I Love?
  • makes my hand really really smooth
  • light and not oily
  • fresh finishing
  • cheap
  • smell so goooddd
  • to many to tell what I love about this product :p
What I Hate?
  • nothing
Price?
  • IDR 12000 or more, under IDR 20000 for sure!
Repurchased?

Recommended?

Review: L'oreal Smooth-Intense Anti-Frizz Serum

Hello, Ladies! How are you? I'm doing great. More good news, I have been here in Bali almost for 2 weeks, but I don't get darker skin! *yeay* Seriously, I'm afraid that my skin will go darker, plus I ride motorcycle here, and the sun is totally crazy! But, I will not share about skin problem, I will do another review!

This product is from my April Haul post. It is L'oreal Smooth Intense Anti-Frizz Serum. It is a liquid serum, and a leave-on as well. It contains argan oil that makes your hair smoother, silky, sleek, and manageable. This product really suits for frizzy and rebellious hair.

I already use it for 2 months, but I only use this product if I want to go out for hang out or places that make me should look 'better' (hahahaa). I love this product because, sometimes our hair is not smooth, eventhough after we wash it right? But this product makes my hair smoother and shiny. But the magical thing about this product is, it make your hair 'stick' to each other, means sleek for instance. And this product also protects hair from heat or chemical things. 

These are the packaging.

The liquid most likely like water, but a little bit thicker. I usually pump twice for my whole hair.

What I Love?
  • It makes my hair smoother instantly!
  • The smell of the product is quite nice
  • Nice packaging
What I Hate?
  • 1 pump is not enough!
Price?
  • Supposed to be over IDR 60000, but I bought it on discount for IDR 40000 :)
Repurchased?
  • Absolutely
Recommended?
  • Yes, for those who have long hair.
Anyone use this product also? What do you think? Let me know! You may comment or tweet me @notjustbeauty

Thank you for reading, my readers. :*

April HAUL

Hey, everyone! It's been a while since my last post (I used to post almost everyday). I miss you ladies. :) Today I will post my April Haul! Yeay, this is my first haul actually, because my blog is 1 month old. *big grin* 

Okay, my April haul is the worst ever (but still grateful). Because I shopped just a couple things. That is because I have to save money to my replacement to Bali. Excited at the same time tho! These are things that I bought in April.

1. Eye Tape (I don't know how to call the brand, because it is in Chinese writing)
These are the packaging

I bought the big size eye tape. This is my first time using this size. And it works! Because I have un-even eyelids between my left and right eyes. 

2. Revlon Nail Enamel, #570 Vixen and Professional Double Twist
Left: #570 Vixen Revlon Nail Enamel
Right: Professional Double Twist Instant Base and Top

 I bought them just to add my nail polish color collections. But, I love the double twist nail enamel, smart product! :)

3. L'oreal Smooth Intense Anti-Frizz Serum
 
These are the packaging.
I love this product very much. It makes my hair really smooth and glowing. Want me to review this product further more? Please write in comment below!

So, that's it my April Haul. Just a little beauty products. I'll make sure I will give more next month. And FYI, I move to Bali to have my career. For the next post, I will share about Balinese beauty product too, because Bali has A LOT of beauty product. And of course, some pictures that will make you jealous! *evil laugh* 

What do you think of my April haul? If you want me to review more of those products above, please let me know! You can comment or tweet me @notjustbeauty. :)

Thank you for reading, my readers. :*

Beauty Trend: 2 Colors Nail

Hey, everyone! Do you this new beauty trend? I tried it myself, but honestly I don't really like it because I use soft color. Actually, this kind of nail colors should use bold and brave color, I was just not in the mood. What do you think? :)

Nail polish: Skin Food BR 608

Nail polish: Skin Food PK 215'

Do you like it? It's not a brave color, but unique enough! I will try other colors and I will share to you ladies. You can comment or tweet me @notjustbeauty

Thank you for reading, my readers. :*

My Skin Care Routine (Face and Body)

Hey, everyone! For me, skin is very important part of our body, especially for us women. We want our skin look beautiful (mostly want to look super-white). And for me, beside I keep my skin from the inside by consuming healthy food, I also treat my skin from the outside. That's why today I will share to you ladies about my skin care products, both my face and my body.

But first of all, women are sensitive about getting older, I mean look older. So, I think we should treat our skin well from young age. I start to care about my skin since I'm in Junior High School. Because, in that time, we usually get active everyday. My face skin type is combination but more to dry. It will get oily in T areas such as forehead, nose, and my chin. So, when I have my period, pimples coming out on those places. Stressful! But luckily my skin recovers immediately.

I will share about my skin care products, and the schedule to use the products (very complete!).

Let's start from my face skin routine.

1. Clean and Clear Clear Fairness Cleanser
This is my ultimate cleanser! I love this product, and I have been using this brand from Junior High School. But I started to use Fairness Cleanser about 6 years ago. Actually this product is for teenager, but until now it really suits me. This new design and new formula has rice extract with oil absorbing system and cherry extract. It also has soft whitening beads which can make my face whiter! And my face becomes oil-proof for  longer time! Love it. I use this cleanser every morning and every night in my bath time.

2. Clean and Clear Deep Action Daily Pore Cleanser
This is from Clean and Clear too. It has soft beads which can make my face pores smaller than before! I have been using this pore cleanser for 2 months. But I have felt the result. Nice huh? I use this product at night time. Why? because I heard we shouldn't scrub our face everyday. 

3. Clean and Clear Clear Fairness Moisturizer SPF 15
I use this moisturizer for a very long time, I think more than 6 years since the product is launched. I obsessed with not getting dark-skin, so I tried this moisturizer that can make my face look whiter and brighter and not oily at the same time! And it totally works. I have very white face skin, and sometimes my face skin looks whiter than my neck. So, I kinda confused. And what I love about this product is it has SPF. And since I am an active and outdoor person, this product helps me a lot. It protects my skin from the sun. Seriously, no joke. The new version of this moisturizer has cherry extract and rice protein which can make my face fresh for a long time. I use this moisturizer once everyday after my face wash in the morning bath.

4. Clean and Clear Active Clear Speed Clearing Gel
I am a kind of person who use the whole range if I use certain brand of beauty products. And I use this one too. It's actually a gel for treat pimples / acnes. It reduces appereance of acne from 4 hours. And it has salicylic acid formula which works faster than cleansing alone. I use this every time I got acnes on my face. It comes out as gel, which is transparent so by using this won't embarrassed us (at least too much).

5. Ovale Facial Mask Yam Bean
Since I'm obsessed with white skin, I use this product too. It is a facial mask from yam bean. It makes my face smoother, fresher, firm, and brighter. It contains the combination of yam bean extract with vitamin C and E, and enrich with algae extract. It helps me to remove dead skin cells. I use this mask for 10-15 minutes, then I rinse with warm water. I use this once a week.

6. Biore Cleansing Strips Pore Pack
I have black head pores on my nose! I hate it very much. So, I have to clean them with this product. I choose this black one because it is more obvious to see my black head pore after I pull the pore pack. It's kinda grouse but fun, hehe. I use this once a week.

7. Garnier Light Brightening Eye Roll-On
I hate my under-eye! But since I am using this product, it saved me! It is still kinda dark (because I sleep over midnight hours), but it's better than 2 months ago. It says that it will reduce darkness under eye for at least a month. And I have been using this product about 2 months, and I love it. I use this everyday before I go to sleep.

8. Ovale Essential Vitamin Face Lightening
Once again, I'm obsessed! hahaha. This is my face vitamin. It contains Vita White and sunflower oil to lighten my face. But besides that, this product makes my face softer and brighter. I use this every 2 days at night after I wash my face skin.

And these are my body skin care routine (simple one!).

1. Leivy Naturally Double Moisturising Shower Cream
This is my body cleanser that I have been using for a year at least. I really like this product because it contains A LOT. And this shower cream makes my skin really moist than regular soap. It has goat's milk and milk protein to lighten my skin tone. I love this product very much, I use it everyday. (looks like I run out of the shower cream, gotta get refill it!)

2. Shinzui Body Scrub Sakura
I use this for my body scrub. I really like it because it has good smell and makes my skin really smooth. Like, really smooth! I scrub it all over my body my my body still dry. This way makes your skin way more smoother than you apply it on wet skin. I use this product once a week. :)

3. Vaseline Total Moisture Cocoa Glow
This product is magic. It makes my skin looks glowing! I always use this lotion every time I use short pants, hehe. It has 24 hours nourishing lotion for soft and glowing skin. It has pure cocoa butter, that's why this lotion smells like chocolate! Nice. I use this in morning time, but not routine, just if I go to places with air conditioner, or when I use short pants.

4. Vaseline Healthy White
Last but not least, this is my ultimate product! I use this product everyday before I go to sleep, after I take my night bath (I always take my bath at night). People say that lotion works while you sleeping, and I totally agree. It makes my skin whiter. I am an active and outdoor person, but this product always works! I never fall asleep before I use this lotion all over my body.

FINISH! 

What do you think? Is it a lot? No, I think I have simple treatment for my skin. Simple treatment, but maximal result! I want to know your skin care products too! You can comment, or tweet me @notjustbeauty
