Product Review : Clarins Travel Vanity Make Up Set

This is my first woman's talk about a woman's stuff. Whats good, whats bad, whats worth buying or not, based on my personal thoughts, experiences and tastes. Nothing about kids or motherhood.


The Packaging of Clarins Travel Vanity Palette

So I bought this Clarins travel make up set about a year or year and a half ago at duty free somewhere I forgot. Thought it would be a handy make up set for on the go. It comes with a nice red leather cover box. The palette has a mascara, a pink lip gloss, 6 eyeshadows, a pressed powder, and a blusher. It also comes with a mini brush and a sponge tip applicator for the eyeshadows.

On to the review. The mascara is okay. It has a black color but not too thick. It doesnt make my lashes look longer or fuller. It just gives some definition to the lashes. The lipgloss is quite nice. Its creamy and definetely gives some glossyness. But what I like the most is the smell of it. It smells so good. The eyeshadows are in neutral color, all shimmery. They are just a big NO NO for me. I mean the color is soooo..NOT pigmented. I hate it. Hellooo... this should be the star of the palette to create so many different looks, but when I put it on, its just too sheer for me. The color doesnt really pops even if I layered it. Then if you look at the mirror, you just cant tell the color. They kinda look almost the same like the baby blue with the white color, or the pink with the purple color. Its just awfull. Thats why the eyeshadows were the only thing left in the box. I just wont use it unless I'm running out of eyeshadow.

So for the powder is okay, it matches my skin tone and gives a translucent finish to the face. The blusher is great. It gives a peachy pink color to your cheeks, not heavy but fresh. Really fits for everyday make up. It just lights up your face instantly. Loves the color. The brush and sponge tip applicator are horrible. The brush looks soft but after you try it on, you will feel like it just a mini brush, cheap mini brush. Not as luxurious as its brand. The sponge applicator even worst. What about the price? For this -not so good - product, its too pricey. I know its a high end brand, but still, quality is numero uno right!

Soto Seger Hj. Fatimah, Boyolali

Gambar
Beberapa waktu lalu kami jalan-jalan ke Boyolali. Setiap singgah di tempat baru pastinya selalu cari makanan khas daerah tersebut.  Boyolali sendiri terkenal sebagai kota susu, tapi kami nggak nyari susunya. Saat itu waktu makan siang. Laper banget. Jalan deh ke pusat kota dan liat soto boyolali yang penuh banget. Sampe keder sendiri kalo mau masuk.  Jangankan masuk, parkir aja nggak bisa.  Dan herannya hampir semua warung soto seger ini penuh semua.   Lalu kami carilah warung soto yang memungkinkan kami duduk dalam warung itu. Warung Soto Segeer Hj. Fatimah (sama aja kayak Mbok Giyem hanya merubah nama), karena soto Hj. Fatimah/ Mbok Giyem inilah yang ada di setiap titik kota ini.  Penyajian soto segeer ini di mangkuk kecil mirip soto Kudus. Namun, soto segeer ini adalah soto sapi bukan soto ayam. Kuahnya bening tidak kuning. Terdapat beberapa suwiran daging sapi, dipercantik dengan beberapa helai daun seledri dan tauge yang banyak.  Rasanya segeeerr banget. Enak deh. Cucok buat e

Product Review: The Body Shop Born Lippy Lip Balm Passion Berry

TBS Born Lippy Lip Balm in Passion Berry I have a dry lip so I wanna keep my lip moisturized all day. I usually have Nivea lip balm for myself, but since I was running out of the Nivea one, I figured why not try something else. Then I went to TBS counter and picked it straight away. TBS Born Lippy Lip Balm comes in a mini round plastic tub. Its small and handy but actually I dont really like this kinda packaging. I have to dip in my finger to get  it, so its not really hygienic. I personally prefer a stick packaging thou. It costs about IDR 69k. Yeah, its more expensive than the Nivea lip balm. It has a jelly texture kinda waxy. But when I put it on, its not so waxy or sticky at all. It feels creamy and light on my lip. It also makes my lip looking glossy. I wear this every day and night to keep my lip moist. I can tell you that it stays for over 2 hours, which is good enough. But in my opinion, this doesnt give me like a hardcore moisturizing power. Still moisturizes but not s

Baby Stuff: Mamy Poko Extra Dry vs Pampers Active Baby

Gambar
Just a random post. Thought of reviewing baby stuff since I have talked a lot on mommy stuff. This may be or may not be so informative or interesting. Just enjoy sharing. So, today post is about diaper. Yes, Im one of those mothers who are STILL depending on disposable diapers. My baby wears disposable diaper only at night or whenever he goes out. Mamy Poko and Pampers are my two most favorite diapers, and the two brands that I ve ever tried.  On to the review. Mamy Poko Extra Dry was my baby's first diaper at home (when he was born, the hospital gave him some random diapers which I didnt recognize). Mamy Poko is pretty well known here for the quality. It comes in a pretty bulky design, bit thick.  Makes an obvious gap between my baby's legs. Non streatchable. The inner is soft but like I said, a bit thick. Now here comes the magic, it can absorbs so much liquid  and stays dry up to 10 hrs. Seriously, that just blows my mind. The downside is whenever my baby is pee-ing so m
