7 Hari Kulit Wajah Cerah dan Terawat dengan Erha

Hello lovelies,

kulit wajah cerah, awet muda, serta minim masalah merupakan dambaan hampir semua orang, karena pastinya bagaimanapun sehat juga merupakan hal yang utama. Banyak krim, skincare yang dijual di pasaran tanpa keterangan bahan yang jelas atau aman untuk digunakan sehari-hari. Jadi, jangan dengan alasan ingin cantik dan kulit yang cerah secara instan, kita jadi beralih ke produk yang malah  berakibat buruk pada kulit dan kesehatan kita. Ada loh produk yang terbukti aman dan memberikan efek secepat 7 hari.

Mari kita berkenalan dengan produk-produk Erha Apothecary yang bisa dibeli tanpa perlu resep dokter, tapi buat kamu yang pengen banget konsultasi ke dokter, bisa-bisa aja, ada banyak cabang Erha Clinic yang tersebar di Indonesia.

-*-



Baik itu gedung sendiri seperti di Kelapa Gading, Kemang, dsb, maupun yang ada di mall-mall, seperti di Lippo Mall Puri (cabang yang aku paling sering datang). Biasanya aku dan keluarga datang yang ada di dalam mall, karena sambil menunggu jadwal antrian dokter, bisa sambil jalan-jalan dulu atau makan. Appointment juga bisa dilakukan buat kamu yang sibuk serta butuh alokasi waktu khusus sehingga antrian bisa lebih di minimalis. Di Erha Clinic selain ketemu dokter untuk masalah kulit wajah, bisa juga untuk urusan rambut dan laser treatment.

-*-






Aku pernah konsultasi untuk rambut rontok serta laser treatment menghilangkan semacam 'lemak kulit', cukup sekali datang dan biasanya hasilnya maksimal. Pelayanan di klinik juga nyaman, dokter-dokternya memberikan input dengan informasi yang jelas. Jadi kita bisa mengerti mengapa suatu treatment, produk atau tindakan diperlukan.

Nah, kembali yuk ke produk perawatan wajah, saya share dulu ya sedikit pengetahuan mengenai produk-produknya.

-*-




TRUWHITE ACTIVATOR C SERUM

TRUWHITE ACTIVATOR C SERUM mengandung 10% Vitamin C dan targeted whitening system, yang berfungsi menghambat pembentukan melanin (pigmen kulit), merangsang produksi kolagen, menghambat efek buruk radikal bebas, melembapkan dan mencerahkan kulit.
Targeted whitening system bekerja langsung pada melanosit  (penghasil pigmen kulit) sehingga efek pencerahan lebih efektif.

TERUJI SECARA KLINIS
 7 days brighter : mencerahkan kulit sejak pemakaian hari ketujuh*.


HARGA
TRUWHITE ACTIVATOR C SERUM : Rp 180.000,-
Amazing kan?!

Serumnya bisa membuat perbedaan hanya dengan 7 hari pemakaian, dan pastinya buat kamu semua yang rajin pakai skincare tau, biasanya produk itu terlihat perubahaannya setelah sekitar 28 hari pemakaian sesuai dengan regenerasi kulit. Karena potensi targeted whitening system dan 10% vitamin c, efek pencerahan dari TRUWHITE ACTIVATOR C SERUM lebih efektif.

Serum vitamin c ini merupakan brightening serum atau serum pencerah wajah yang di approved dermatologist Erha yang aman dan menjada kulit sehat. Dengan atau tanpa konsultasi kamu bisa mendapatkan serum ini di Erha.

-*-




Yang jadi masalah utama aku tuh apa sih? Sampai aku bisa cobain 3 produk ini? Mari aku ceritain.

Memang kulit kering sudah menjadi masalah aku sejak usia 30an deh, dan setelah lewat 35 memang semakin kering. Kalau urusan dark spots atau flek, yang notabene juga salah satu penyebabnya karena iritasi kulit kering, matahari, dan radiasi. Jadi kulit kering aku ini bisa bikin banyak masalah yang penyelesaiannya bukan cuma pakai 1 produk. Kebetulan Erha ada 3 produk yang pas banget dengan kebutuhan aku saat ini, ya 3 produk yang aku sebutkan diatas.

Aku akan review sesuai dengan bagaimana aku pakai, jadi secara urutan pakai.

Mulai dari pembersih muka Skin Barrier Facial Wash.

SKIN BARRIER FACIAL WASH

Merupakan pembersih wajah yang tidak mengandung SLS (Sodium Lauryl Sulphate) dan paraben, diformulasikan khusus dengan busa lembut dan bahan non-iritant. Tidak hanya membersihkan, tetapi juga menjaga kelembapan dan mempertahankan fungsi barrier kulit. Sehingga sesuai untuk kulit kering, sensitif dan atopi.
Mengandung aquaxyl, PHA (Gluconolactone), zinc PCA dan D-Panthenol sebagai moisturizing agent. Dilengkapi aloe vera extract dan dipotassium glycyrrhizinate sebagai anti inflamasi.

Barrier kulit merupakan lapisan terluar kulit yang terdiri dari sel-sel kulit (corneocytes) yang saling terikat dengan adanya lapisan lipid. Lapisan barrier ini bersifat impermeable sehingga mencegah hilangnya air/ kelembapan dari dalam kulit dan mecegah masuknya mikroorganisme atau iritan yang merusak kulit. Rusaknya barrier kulit menyebabkan kulit menjadi kering, bersisik, gatal, teriritasi atau sensitif.

Cara Pemakaian
Aplikasikan pada wajah yang sudah dibasahi.
Pijat lembut selama 1 menit. Bilas dengan air dan keringkan.

HARGA
SKIN BARRIER FACIAL WASH : Rp 79.000,-

-*-




Semua yang dijelaskan diatas, semua hal itulah yang diperlukan kulitku. Selama ini aku suka menghindar memakai foaming facial wash, karena rata-rata membuat kulit iritasi dengan kandungannya yang tidak ramah untuk kulit kering dan sensitif. Bahkan kulit normal pun lama-lama bisa tidak tahan jika terus dipakaikan iritants yang menyakiti kulit. Skin Barrier Facial Wash dari Erha benar-benar lembut dan nyaman dipakai, sebelum mulai menulis blog inipun tadi sejam yang lalu aku baru pakai lagi, dan sukaaaa banget dengan efek lembutnya.

Mungkin juga kebiasaan kita meski sudah pakai pembersih makeup yang oil, cream atau milky cleanser, kita masih perlu pakai foaming facial wash, sekarang tanpa khawatir kulitku makin kering atau iritasi, sehari pakai 2x atau 3x Skin Barrier Facial Wash tetap nyaman.

Cukup basahi kulit dan lathers up (busakan) di telapak tangan yang bersih. Busa lembut dengan mudah dihasilkan, lalu aplikasikan busa ke wajah. Pijat dengan lembut sekitar 1 menit, aku sendiri biasanya fokus ke area yang berlipat atau sulit dijangkau seperti bawah hidung. Penumpukan kotoran di area ini juga bisa bikin iritasi, memerah dan akhirnya jerawat.

Berkat Erha, sekarang aku tidak takut lagi mencuci muka hehe, kulit tidak terasa ketarik, kering, ataupun memerah. Pas juga loh untuk dibawa traveling ke area yang kering udaranya.

-*-

Setelah kulit bersih dan sudah kering, aku menggunakan toner, lalu serum ini TruWhite Activator C Serum yang formulanya mirip gel cair, semi bening agak milky, dan nyamaaannn banget di kulit. Tau donk, kadang serum vitamin c itu bisa agak panas di kulit, hangat atau bahkan yang kulitnya sensitif banget bisa memerah, TruWhite Activator C Serum di kulit aku benar-benar comfortable. Tidak ada kemerahan, tidak ada tanda iritasi sama sekali, dan tidak ada sensasi panas.

Serumnya juga mudah diserap tanpa rasa lengket. Biasanya 1 pump aku pakai untuk seluruh wajah dan sedikit area leher. Aku butuh serum vitamin c ini untuk dark spots di area pipi bagian atas, atau upper cheeks area, untuk penuaan dini juga seperti garis-garis halus. Vitamin C mampu merangsang kolagen kita supaya lebih aktif, maklum, dengan berjalannya usia, bukan hanya energi yang berkurang, tapi aktivitas kulitpun. Makanya kulit kita bisa terlihat dull (kusam), lebih sagging (tidak kencang lagi), semua ini masalah penuaan dini yang bisa diatasi dengan vitamin c agar tampak lebih terawat, segar dan cerah.

Buat yang masih penasaran, bisa ya di cek di website dan instagram Erha.

• IG: @erha.dermatology

-*-



Setelah serum, ibaratnya setelah nutrisi yang mudah menyerap dipakai, kita seal dengan pelembab, dan bukan pelembab biasa, tapi pelembab yang mengandung proteksi.


TRUWHITE ACTIVATOR DAY CREAM

Pelembap yang diperkaya dengan 4 Whitening Agent dan tabir surya.

Merupakan pelembap yang diperkaya dengan 4 Whitening Agent, salah satunya Arbutin (pencerah alami dari buah Bearberry) yang berfungsi sebagai zat pencerah sehingga efektif mencerahkan dan melembapkan kulit, mengurangi bintik-bintik (hiperpigmentasi) serta menghambat pembentukan melanin pada kulit.

Truwhite Activator Day Cream juga mengandung tabir surya untuk menangkal sinar UVA dan UVB sekaligus exfoliating agent yang mengangkat sel-sel kulit mati serta menstimulasi pertumbuhan sel kulit baru. Kombinasi pemakaian Truwhite Activator Day Cream dan Night Cream akan memberikan 24 Hrs Re-brightening System.

Aplikasikan setiap pagi setelah membersihkan wajah. Aman digunakan untuk ibu hamil dan menyusui.

HARGA
TRUWHITE ACTIVATOR DAY CREAM : Rp 198.500,-
-*-



Inilah salah satu alasan aku memilih Erha, karena produk satu dengan lainnya dibuat agar bisa dipakai dengan saling mendukung fungsi produk sebelum dan sesudahnya. Yang bersihin kulit menyanggupi kondisi kulit jadi bersih dan nyaman untuk dipakaikan serum, lalu saat serum sudah terpakai di kulit yang lembab, barulah pelembab sebagai seal terakhir kita gunakan. Baiknya lagi karena ada sunscreen sebesar SPF 25, radiasi dari matahari bisa diatasi.

Ada whitecast nya ga? Ada tapi sedikit banget, jadi gak usah pakai highlighter banyak-banyak ya, sudah ada dari skincare nya. Pelembab all in one dengan sun protection ini pas buat yang ngakunya sayang kulit tapi males pakai sunblock (kaya aku). Makanya aku masih suka ada dark spots atau brown spots.

Sekarang, sudah tidak ada alasan malas lagi, karena Erha pinter, dipaketin biar dipakai setiap hari.

Jangan lupa, karena ada SPF nya, bersihkan dengan seksama diakhir hari ya dengan makeup remover.

-*-



Efeknya setelah 7 hari apa?

Beneran, tiap hari aku makin cinta sama kulitku karena Erha. Hal pertama yang aku rasakan adalah manfaat kulit yang lebih lembab, dari pembersihnya yang lembut, serum vitamin c sampai pelembab yang mendukung kondisi kulit agar tidak kering lagi dan tidak mudah teriritasi lagi.

Dengan Erha, kini kulit wajah cerah dan terawat memungkinkan ya tanpa mengorbankan kesehatan kulit. Jadi kalau sudah ada yang pasti aman, jangan beli yang abal-abal ya, meski klaimnya putih cerah seketika tapi efek jangka panjangnya merusak kan lebih repot dan berbahaya.

Dengan 7 hari saja, flek aku berkurang, garis-garis halus memudar meski belum hilang tapi memudar saja sudah menunjukkan perkembangan yang memuaskan, selama ada perbaikan, hal ini menunjukkan efektivitas produk, dan glow nya itu loh, kulit aku terlihat sehat dan tidak tertarik-tarik.

Dari hari pertama penggunaan, kulit sudah terlihat lebih lembab, ternyata pembersih yang tepat itu efek banget ya, kulit gak lagi sengsara karena SLS. Busa lembut dan bahan yang non-iritant membuat kulit bersih dan tidak kemerah-merahan lagi.

-*-



Ditambah serum, pelembab, komplit kan efeknya. Ini aja baru 3 produk, rasanya kalau aku tambah Balancing Toner dan Night Cream variant TruWhite Activator, rasanya kulitku bisa lebih cerah dan terawat lagi.

Intinya, thank you so much Erha, you never failed to amaze me. Terus berkembang dan mengeluarkan produk-produk yang efektif dan membuat kulit tampak lebih sehat ya. Cerah dan mulus bukan lagi hal yang perlu treatment yang sulit dan panjang, over the counter products pun mampu membuat perbedaan.

See you again soon, on my next post!!

Spa Essentia White Glow


Hello lovelies,

Spa Essentia is here, they are celebrating a new collection called White Glow, pastinya untuk mencerahkan kulit ya, dan mereka punya variant uang untuk muka dan tubuh.

I think this is perfect for those who wants to get married, atau ada acara penting yang akan datang and they want to look special for that occasion.

-*-



Kebetulan aku kali ini memcoba face serum, face moisturizer, body scrub, body mask dan face masknya juga.

The masks comes in a sachets, jadi dalam satu bungkus ada beberapa sachet dan cukup digunakan sesuai keperluan. You can use rose water, any toner, or plain clean water to mix the mask.

The scrub comes in a tube container while their serum and moisturizers in a pump bottles.

-*-



Below are the texture of the serum and moisturizer, moisturizer is slightly thicker while the serum is more transparent and more fluid. The moisturizer smell so good, like I was instantly taken to a beautiful spa, it's like that usual scent when entering a spa.

-*-



Below is the texture of the scrub, it's white, creamy, with beads that satisfy the needs to scrub the skin. What I like about the scrub is that it has a spa scent too, with the feeling of super clean yet still moist skin. It doesn't dried out the skin.

-*-


The details on the products are available on each of the box or wrapper of the container. From the direction, ingredients to instruction.

One common thing I find on the ingredients, it's lavender. Perhaps it's the ingredients that made them smells so good, and so does all those citrus too.

-*-



The scents is comforting, refreshing and beautiful at the same time. I do enjoy using the scrub but I wish it came in a bigger tube since a single tube is like 3 usage for the whole body. I like them on a dry skin, it add that friction and getting the dead skin cells.

Adding water a bit by bit while massaging the skin is addictive, the skin is getting that micro-circulating effects.

-*-


The face mask comes in a package of 4 x 4g and the body is in 20 g's.

On this post I'm only mixing the powders with water to see the sole effects of the mask.

I'm using one for the face and another on the body.

-*-


Now regarding the face mask and the body mask too. Do it one by one. I use the face mask first, adding water little by little so it wont be too runny before applying it on my skin, clean skin that is.

Same goes with the body mask, adding water little by little so it wont be too runny, and here's the fun part, after putting the mask all over the body I was kinda confuse where to stand waiting for the mask to dry while wearing nothing.

The mask dries up pretty fast, around 10 minutes but I wish I can just relax and lie down so the mask could stay longer, like wishing for the longer I let them stay on my skin, the fairer I'll become, I wish to have an even skin tone more than a paler one heehee.

-*-



After rinsing the mask and continually using it, my skin does appear cleaner. In a sense that it helps my skin to appear brighter and more attractive. It's not just being white and fair but removing back acne, uneven skin tone, trapped dirt on the pores so the skin appear better and healthier too.

Those who love shoulder off tops must try using the scrub and body mask routinely, alongside with sun protection too.

-*-


As for the serum and moisturizer aka White Glow Whitening Serum and White Glow Face and Eye Night Lotion, they are both helping my facial skin to appear even out, fresher and fairer in a way that my skin gets that brighter vibe.

And just like the body, the facial skin also need sun protection to help staying fair longer and better.

-*-



Thank you so much Spa Essentia for the goodies, I enjoy using them daily. The scrub and masks can be used on a weekly basis while the serum and night lotion daily.

See you again soon on my next post!! And If you want to try some of Spa Essentia products as well as getting pampered in their spa, do join my giveaway, it is available on my instagram account @Carnellin.

Au revoir!!

The Face Shop White Seed Real Whitening Essence & Tone-Up Cream

Hello lovelies,

brightening my skin has never ever been my concern. Blessed with a fair skin from the birth made me want to look tan. Ironic isn't it? We tend to look at the other's grass greener. Still, nowadays perhaps due to aging too, some spots starts to emerged, the solution? of solution? Of course, brightening products.

They are not just made for lighten the whole skin tone, but helps lessening the spots too, as they are melanin as well. The effect might not be as forgiving as whitening the whole face, but helps in reducing the intensity of the spots. So these brown thingy will become less and less visible.

This time I'm trying a duo White Seed from The Face Shop, it's Real Whitening Essence and Tone-Up Cream.

-*-



White Seed is a botanical skincare line that moisturizes the skin while improving skin texture and clarity. White seed is formulated with White Lupine Seed which contains natural brightening ingredient to reduce dullness of skin to appear more luminous by controlling melanin formation.

-*-

White Seed Real Whitening Essence
- Real whitening essence that delivers powerful whitening effects for clear milky white skin.
- 7 free formula.
- TFS originally developed Hexylresorcinol gives powerful whitening effects that is 1,000 times more than that of vitamin C, to create milky white skin that shines from the inside.
- Hydro matrix gel system maximizes moisturizing ingredients and active ingredients for dewy, clear skin.

White Seed Tone-up Cream
- A complexion correcting finisher that instantly evens the skin tone making it white and flawless.
- 7 free formula.
- A real whitening complexion improving finisher that is a milky white formula that gives a refreshing application and cares for both dullness and uneven skin tone making the complexion instantly radiant. Primer function day care product.

-*-


This is essence on the picture above and the cream below. Clearly the texture is different one to another. One is more to the milky gel that cools and looks refreshing while the cream is rich and thicker, looks more like a whitening product, but I assure you both are brightening as it is.

-*-



Regarding the comfort of using, the essence in terms of texture is more pleasing but somehow there's a slight sting on some parts, for a while there, not the whole time and not causing any redness nor further discomfort. The cream itself is rich, like mentioned above, but pleasant and doesn't feel greasy nor oily on the skin, so it's comfortable.

Those who have normal skin will love the texture, so does those with oily skin, but as for I have dry skin, I add a bit of hydrating serum between these two just to make the skin feels better and more moist.

-*-



The cream is preferred (by me) as a day cream, but you may use it on day or night as you please. The essence itself is like a serum, so I'm using it after a toner and before the cream. They are great together, that's perhaps why they are sold as a bundle pack, regarding the rest of the series, I haven't tried them, perhaps when used altogether they will be more effective.

-*-


I see a slight differences on my skin, overall skin tone brighten and the spots looks less visible, there are still there, just not as concentrated as before. As I'm using them on day time only and just use the essence with another cream at night, I was kinda amaze that I can still see differences when I thought they have to be used both.

Since my focus is on the dark spots and not the whole complexion, I think the product works better as a skin tone brightener instead of a dark spots remover.

-*-


Will I keep using the products? I will, so far they feels good (after the sting for a while after almost every application of the essence), and smells good too. It's not an overwhelming scent, but rather white floral scent that calming and clean.

The cream is said can act as a primer, but I need something more than this for sure :D It's more like a light primer.

-*-


As I always avoiding whitening or brightening products, the fact that I'm still using these babies are already show how good they are, and the brand itself is pretty worthy among other Korean brand, hence, it worth trying.

Shinzu'i Body Lotion



Hi everyone,

terutama kamu-kamu yang ingin sekali memiliki kulit yang terlihat lebih putih dan cerah, Shinzu'i belum lama ini launching beberapa produk yang bisa kamu coba.

-*-



Shinzu'i sendiri cukup terkenal di Indonesia dengan sabun pembersih kulitnya yang dapat digunakan setiap hari, serta telah menjadi produk favorit masyarakat Indonesia. Melengkapi produk-produk yang sudah ada seperti body scrub juga, kini Shinzu'i memiliki body lotion.

-*-




Shinzu'i Body Lotion tersedia dalam 6 variant, namun semuanya tetap mengandung ekstrak bunga sakura yang fungsinya meregenerasi sel kulit mati dan herba matsu oil dari jamur matsutake yang fungsinya untuk mencerahkan kulit secara alami. Kedua ingredients ini sangat terkenal di Jepang. Kamu bisa membaca detailsnya di www.PutihItuShinzui.com atau check them out on their social medias:


- Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PutihItuShinzui

- Twitter: https://twitter.com/PutihItuShinzui

- Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/PutihItuShinzui

(cukup copy paste alamat diatas di browser kamu).

-*-


Kebetulan aku memiliki 2 variants, yaitu: Hana dan Myori.

Aroma Hana yang segar dan sedikit manis, cocok untuk digunakan pada pagi hari. Dan Myori dengan aroma bunga yang anggun, sesuai untuk sore atau malam hari. Tentunya dengan wangi yang semerbak, Shinzu'i bisa menjadi daya tarik tersendiri bagi penggunanya.

-*-



Lalu bagaimana dengan texturnya? Body lotion yang berwarna putih ini cenderung creamy tapi tidak lengket. Aromanya bertahan cukup lama dan demikian juga dengan daya tahannya dalam melembutkan kulit. Pantasnya, produk ini dikenal dengan nama perfumed body lotion karena sangat wangi.

-*-




Dengan rajin menggunakan Shinzu'i Body Lotion, menghindari matahari dari jam-jam yang terik, menjaga kebersihan kulit dengan rajin luluran (menggunakan Shinzu'i Body Scrub) maka kulit yang cerah bukanlah hal yang mustahil.

Herba Matsu Oil membantu mengubah pigmen melanin penyebab warna kulit gelap, menjadi leukomelanin yang lebih cerah, sehingga kulit tampak lebih putih dan cerah. Main ingredients ini dimiliki Shinzu'i dan sudah dipatenkan.

-*-


Ekstrak bunga sakura dalam produk membantu proses regenerasi sel kulit sehingga kulit tidak kusam dan tampak bening.

Sakura merupakan bunga favorit orang Jepang karena bentuknya yang cantik, warnanya dan bahkan pada setiap musim sakura berbunga, dirayakan oleh orang Jepang sebagai suatu moment yang membahagiakan. Banyak sekali inspirasi yang didapat dari bunga tersebut.

-*-



Kembali ke Shinzu'i dengan body lotionnya yang semuanya terinspirasi dari bunga-bunga. Kamu dapat menikmati berbagai macam aroma bunga dari masing-masing lotion.

Dan tentunya, selain kulit yang lembab dan wangi, kulitpun akan terlihat lebih cerah, putih dan bersih.

Berikut beberapa tips dari aku:
Gunakan Shinzu'i Body Lotion setiap hari setelah kulit dibersihkan (mandi). Pilihlah aroma Shinzu'i Body Lotion yang kamu suka dan gunakan saat kulit masih terasa lembab. Nikmati aroma kesukaanmu dan jangan lupa untuk rajin luluran seminggu sekali untuk hasil yang lebih baik, hindari matahari pada saat sangat terik, yaitu pukul 11-2 siang. Banyak mengkonsumsi sayur dan buah juga membantu tubuh membersihkan diri 'dari dalam' dan kulitpun akan terlihat lebih segar dan bercahaya. Pastinya kulit yang sehat akan selalu terlihat cantik.

Semua produk Shinzu'i bisa dibeli di bit.yl/belishinzuionline

Terima kasih Shinzu'i.

The Body Shop Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF 50 PA++++

Hello lovelies,

ever wonder what your life might turn out if you choose things differently?

When I was a little girl, there's this book where we can choose how the story would end, so these Disney Princesses can perhaps have different endings according to the option we made. And since it's just a book, we can simply get back to the first page and fix everything we want to fix.

But life it's a one way street where we can't never get back, whatever option we have chosen in the past, sometimes, well, most of the time, it's can't be fixed. We have to live the consequences as it is. We're at the point of the road where we choose to regret our decision for the rest of our life in despair and negativity, or live our best no matter what.

The thing is, same goes with whatever we choose to use on our skin too. If you happen to be like me, rarely use sunscreen, or perhaps when staying on the beach for the whole day, using sunscreen only seen as necessary as the first deep and no reapply ever remembered, spots might comes up. And most of the time, redness and sensitivity occurs.

What can I do, live with it! And in the better future (like now) use a good sunscreen that protects the skin from the sun by all means.

-*-



There's so many sunscreen on the market nowadays and easy to find one anywhere. However there's only a few that really works, fine texture and feel undoubtedly comfortable.

I like the one that doesn't feel heavy nor rich yet give suffice protection to the skin.

And thanks to The Body Shop Indonesia, I just find out that, sunscreen are supposed to be reapplied after 4 hours no matter how high the SPF is since it gets removed either partially or the effectiveness reduced by far from sweating, wiping or just doesn't work as best as when it was first applied, more like worn off.

-*-



Aside from the Skin Defence, during the event, which was held in the middle of Grand Indonesia (East) Atrium, the set was build like a green lush forest. 

Here, everyone can have a skin check to know their skin condition and which products suits them best. This is happen to be key element in finding your dream skin.

The first step is to know what is the skin's current condition, and then, know the products, the ingredients that the skin's need and then the name of the products in The Body Shop range that cater that particular needs.

-*-


Aside from the skin check and knowing the skin and products for them, there is also beauty workshops, talk show, makeup demo that we can watch. So next time when The Body Shop is having an event in a mall, do come by and have a look, you can happily join the fun.

-*-


Now, back to the star of the event, Skin Defence Multi-Protection Essence SPF 50 PA++++ but to know the product first, before it, there's Drops of Light.

-*-


Focusing on brightening the skin, Drops of Light consist of skincare products that helps reducing dark spots, uneven skin tone to help enlighten the whole skin tone.

Top it off with the Skin Defence as it helps to become the skin's umbrella from the sun. Prevention is always better.

-*-

The milky texture of Skin Defence is said to be the winner and loved by the speakers during the event. It is milk-to-water hence we can all imagine the lightness and how it felt on the skin. Fresh and dewy without being sticky nor uncomfortable in any way.

Which reminds me of the texture from one of the products in Drops of Light collection that is also light and watery-like.

-*-



Skin Defence is not as light as the lotion (like toner) from Drops of Light, but it is as comfortable as it is.

Upon use it is white and like a lotion in texture, but when touched and blended, it will turn clear and yes, watery, so the tag milk-to-water is simply spot on. The skin feels like using none, soft, velvety, no white cast, smells really good and flowery, it hug the skin comfortably and protect from the sun with the highest PA there is at the moment ++++.

-*-


So there you go, a sun protection that comes in a tube, with a texture so light that it made the skin feels so good and comfortable. Perfect for a day in the sun in the city life. Fragrant, without white cast and can be used under any makeup. Contain red algae, vitamin c and marula oil. 100% vegetarian, no paraben, no mineral oils and no paraffins. IDR 399.000 per tube that can last around a month when used twice daily on the facial skin, decollete, neck (plus ear and behind the neck for extra protection), and on the ends of our hair too.

Thank you The Body Shop Indonesia.

Shiseido White Lucent Official Launch


Hello lovelies,

a few days ago I was invited once again by Shiseido. This time it is for the official launch of their recent collection, the White Lucent.

-*-


The dress code is white lucent, with a hint of pinks, I come in white.

The event is superb, beautiful, just simply gorgeous. Filled with pink sakura and roses and everything in between. It is definitely an event worth remembering for.

-*-


On each of our table lies a box of products, that's a set we can each bring home.

And they also prepare some to be 'played' with during the event. We can sniff, try, tested and enjoy during our time there.

I personally have tried all of them from their campaign, a few months ago with other beauty bloggers.

Now, inviting medias and more bloggers to try on their product to celebrate the official launch. Yes, Shiseido White Lucent is now available in the counters in Indonesia. Everyone can finally try what we've been raving about. The texture, formula, scent, and how it feel on the skin.

-*-


During the event, we get to experience a bit step further about sakura and enjoying a therapeutic moment of drawing those beautiful sakuras on our 'kimonos'. Yes, Shiseido team has prepared beautiful graments and paint brushes. We all started to draw and focusing as we don't want to mess the gorgeous outfit.

-*-



Above are my sakuras, they look so pretty, I love the soft pink shades and wish to be able to see them for real soon.

Sakura has been a symbol of beauty in Japan for centuries. Japanese embrace, adore and rejoice the seasons where sakura blooms. I want to feel it as well.

-*-


Every detail on the set are so beautiful. Look at those Sakura-like table and all the pink liquid. Reminds me a lot of our previous campaign with them.

One of my favorite product from White Lucent is the lotion, it is clear, comforting, smells relaxing and suitable for my dry skin.

-*-


Would you give them a try?

Shiseido White Lucent is suitable for anyone from their 20's or 30's with bright flawless skin in mind. Dark spots can fade and even prevent upcoming dark spots. The technology used is far advance and can event be compared to laser treatments. Wow, that's impressive!
