SK-II Mid-Night Essence

Hello lovelies,

this is SK-II Mid Night Essence.

I've share with you the Mid-Day Essence and this is the other pair made for night time usage. What's the difference?

The cool menthol.

http://www.sk-ii.com.sg/

Containing a high level of Pitera™ with unique MoistureLock Complex in fine particles that can penetrate through your makeup and lock in moisture, the SK-II Mid-Night Miracle Essence hydrates your skin. It also has a cooling agent which refreshes your skin at night after being exposed to environmental stress during the day.

Texture:

 This lightweight miracle essence spray is quickly absorbed into the skin in fine particles, even over makeup.

-*-

Ingredients:

GALACTOMYCES FERMENT FILTRATE***, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, GLYCERIN, AQUA /WATER, PENTYLENE GLYCOL, SODIUM PCA, GLYCERETH-25 PCA ISOSTEARATE, METHYLPARABEN, SODIUM BENZOATE, MENTHOXYPROPANEDIOL, SORBIC ACID

-*-

The product sold in one size only and in Indonesia, the selling price Rp.749.000, which is cheaper than nearby countries (perhaps due to the currency rate).

-*-

Just spray it anytime during the evening and it provide a cooling sensation around 5 minutes after spraying. The cooling feeling is mild and calming, it's not cold and freezing, more like a decent menthol that you feel relaxing, especially after a hard day working.

-*-

Same goes with the Mid-Day Essence, the spray can be used before and after makeup. During the evening when you want to go out or for that after meeting party or dinner, and with Mid-Night Essence your skin will feel fresh again and ready for the rest of the night.

-*-

For me personally, the facial mist can be used just about any time, both the Mid-Day and Mid-Night can be used otherwise or in their timing, it really is a matter of preference and personal liking.

Both contain pitera and other ingredients that you love from FTE, the only thing that highlight is the minty sensation on the Mid-Night Essence.

-*-

I received the product from the late event with Beauty Bound Asia, thank you for the opportunity.

The product contain lots of moisturizing agent including aloe vera that is calming and soothing as well. Essentials for the skin to stay hydrated as it decrease the possibilities of irritation, and when irritation at bay, dark spots can be avoided.

-*-

Suggestion of usage:

Dispense serum and massage onto face and neck using upward circular motions. Apply onto cleansed skin every night, before bed.For best results, use directly after Drops of Youth Concentrate and before Whitening Night Treatment.

-*-

I'm using it as a serum and will also try using it with Drops of Youth Concentrate, so far the serum when used under a moisturizer it's just amazing. I love the pampering effect on the skin, it made the skin so moist and supple, this is truly a night time serum. Richer, provide more hydration and waking up, the skin does appear moist, when usually kinda dry due to the 8 hour fasting.

Those who have dry skin will love the serum and enjoy using it every night (and sometime during a lazy day at home too) since it is enriching. The formula feels like a creamy gel, lightweight yet power pack with moisture. The skin feels happy using it and when sealed with a moisturizer afterwards the serum will stays longer and have a chance to slowly penetrated into the skin. Making the cells underneath the surface hydrated as well.

To make sure getting an optimum result, do use the sun protection during the day and other range that promote brightening.

Thank you The Body Shop Indonesia.

Click House Fat Removal and Meso Injection

Hello lovelies,

I'm back in Click House for another treatment of Fat Removal, this time Meso Injection is added.

What is meso injection?

-*-

Injection as in injection, ouch >.< and meso means middle, so the injection is for the mid part of the body as in belly aka tummy

-*-

Alongside with the Meso Injection, I also received another Fat Removal treatment with the machine that product Radio Frequency wave to breaks the fat cells, vacuuming motion and warm , to help pulling and melting the fats.

With the injection of L-Carnitine, it helps to turn deposited fat into energy (yeayy!!).

-*-

Since all injection is done by the doctor here, I was waiting at the doctor's room and first, a numbing cream is applied to the area. It is actually not needed if you're a normal people with normal pain tolerance. But since I have a very low tolerance for pain, I demanded a numbing cream, and lots of it.

-*-

Waiting for the cream to work, approximately 30 minutes, I took tons of selfies  ^___^

I was wearing their clothe and kimono.

-*-

I even manage to take a wefie with the doctor.

There's two doctor in the house, one is doctor Mega, the one that did my treatment the last time I'm here and another one is doctor Ika (sorry if misspelling happen).

And after the cream works, the injections begin, I'm so scared >.< and after around 6 injections are done I was relieved. It is not that bad and actually bearable...for normal people to go though without numbing cream, for me, I still do need it haha!

-*-

After the injections, I have to wait around 15 minutes for the fat removal with the machine. Since there is only one machine here, do make an appointment before visiting.

Soon after, the treatment begin and you can also bring your own cream. I happen to bring a firming cream since I want the skin to be firm again after losing the fats, and yes, after the injections and fat removal, the inches are loss again and I'm so happy with the immediate result. No wonder people are doing the treatment and injections, even thou it's a bit painful, the instant result gives instant satisfaction.

Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet

Hello lovelies,

matte lipstick era is not over yet, and I don't think they'll ever be over, you either get glossy or matte.

And this is Chanel Rouge Allure Velvet in 50, La Romanesque.
-*-

http://www.chanel.com
Elevating matte to a new elegance, this next-generation, non-drying matte lipstick glides on lips with intensely rich, long-wearing colour and a sumptuously soft, velvet matte finish.
-*-

I love the color, the 'thinness', the second skin like formula and how smooth it is. Lightly scented with floral aroma and the nice touch of moisture where it is just right. It doesn't have that over creamy feeling nor dry.

-*-

The packaging look luxurious and the details are given on the box.

The product itself comes with a black and golden clickable part where the lipstick will come out after a click and a pull. So it is securely fasten inside the container, perfect for traveling.

-*-

The wine color looks perfect on for a fall season, it has depth but still appear ravishingly beautiful. I do find this color suitable for women in charge as well. Imagine a female boss using this lipstick, somehow it added her charisma and sophistication.

Does the color stay and the lips stay loving the formula?

It does.

-*-

It may not be waterproof, but they do suits as a long wear lipstick. And the gentle hydration is sufficient. You may add a lip balm before or after using the lipstick. But on my case, I do find them a bit tricky when used after a lip balm, due to the lipbalm's texture that gives grease and slippery matter.

So perhaps, dab them or wait around before applying this satisfying lipstick on the lips.

-*-

No need a lip liner, primer or anything, the lipstick looks great on its own.

Well, what can I say, another fabulous product from Chanel with the color that matches autumn.

Anna Sui Secret Wish

Hello lovelies,

this is Anna Sui Secret Wish

http://www.annasui.com

MESSAGE FROM ANNA

"Secret Wish is for the child in us that believes in magic and the adult in us that believes in possibilities."

FRAGRANCE CONCEPT
Within the power of fairies to grant, the Secret Wish summons all we hope for, all we dream. Wish wisely, wish well Secret Wish expresses the designer's own magical optimism -- wishing will make it so. All things are possible; one has only to ask. Only to reveal a hidden, innermost wish. And, from somewhere beneath a blue bell, a new fragrance spirit emerges.

THE DESIGN

Perched atop a three-sided crystal flacon, a delicate, shimmering fairy sits on a matte crystal ball. The true guardian of Secret Wish, she tempts a woman to simply twist the topper, and unleash the magical powers inside. This is her realm. She is the fairy princess personified. Confident, magical, feminine, and powerful.

The flacon itself is thrice-faceted, curved and linear at the same time. Does it suggest three wishes? Who can tell? In some fairytales, it is within a fairy's powers to grant three. Or maybe just one at a time. . . every time a woman opens the fragrance. This is all part of the mystery.

Anna brings us the magic, the legends, the belief of wishes. Translucent as a fairy's wing, mysterious as a moonlit forest, Secret Wish embodies the enchanting essence of a fairytale. The instant the scent is released, a lush, ripe world opens up, filled with a bouquet of juicy fruits: fresh, sparkling lemon, summery melon, and velvety tagete, a soft, apricot-scented flower. Like fairies taking flight, it darts, hither and yon, surprising as it wafts in the air. A burst of joyful pineapple adds a note of flirtatious charm, as acidulous blackcurrant offers its mysterious facets. The fragrance deepens into a magical twilight with warm white cedarwood and sensual amber adding an intense and alluring character. Finishing with a light touch of musk, like falling star dust, it leaves an infinitely feminine wake. A fragrance that is at once as powerful as a charm, and as beguiling as a fairy kiss, it is a perfect balance of fruity and floral notes. Totally in command of a woodland realm. In a shade as soft as a fairy mist, the softest aqua dew, this is truly an elixir of fantasy and emotion.

Secret Wish, the mystical fragrance…..overseen by a fairy.

FRAGRANCE INGREDIENTS

TOP: Lemon, Tagete, Melon
HEART: Blackcurrant, Pineapple
BASE: Cedarwood, Amber, Skin Musk

-*-

As seen and described, the bottle has a unique shape and form, and the cap is just too pretty.

A fairy is sitting on top, it was made to fulfill your wish, as in your secret wish.

-*-

On the first impression, I do sniff some lemon, fresh and the citrus is just kicking in. The mild sweetness of melon followed by blackcurrant.

What I love about the perfume is the sync of the aroma from the beginning to the end. It kept on being fresh and romantic but without the overly sweet sensation. It's like a perfume that you could wear in the morning and be happy about.

-*-

It is fresh, fruity, with a touch of luxurious amber and skin musk that doesn't create any weight. So it is pretty much a lightweight, airy, and dreamy kind of perfume. Totally like a fairy.

-*-

Overall, an all good all around perfume that I think will easily liked and loved by anyone who uses it and those surround her. It will be a total pleaser and hardly offend any nose. No sharpness nor heavy laden aroma. Start from the citrus freshness to the tangy pineapple, sweet melon, and blackcurrant, to the mild earthy and a bit exotic cedarwood, to the calmness of amber and skin musk. I do think this is a perfume that you can present as a gift as well, plus the bottle itself is a collectible material.

-*-

Thank you so much Anna Sui Indonesia.

Oya Clinic

Hello everyone,

a few days ago I went to Oya Clinic and try their signature treatment called Face Contour.

-*-

The clinic located at Menteng area near Anomali Coffee.

The clinic is in white and the building scream aesthetic all over, somehow reminds me a of the romantic era of the renaissance.

Inside, arrays of products are on display.

But the highlight of the products are actually made by the Professor himself.

-*-

The staff and therapist greeted me well and I'm ready for my treatment.

-*-

The room is exactly like the one shown at their website: http://oyaclinics.co.id/

A total of 6 rooms are available for the guests. They all look so clean and stylish too.

I changed myself into a robe and the treatment start almost immediately.

-*-

First, the skin is cleaned, gently scrub and then a sticky molasses like 'sauce' are spread on the skin. Using a tool, the skin was 'ironed' and I felt like I've seen and treated with this kind of tool before but the ones that made a difference is the creamy sticky sauce. It smells sweet like palm sugar and very sticky on the skin. It was said that this is their secret formula, a fat burning cream that will continue to work around 3 days after the treatment is done. So it's kinda like the magic cream.

Then a mask is put on the skin for around 15 minutes.

-*-

Followed by a cream and the treatment is done. It was pretty fast and comfortable from the beginning to the end. This is the kind of facial that I certainly can get used to. And best of all, is the result. My skin become so soft, supple, moisturized and smooth all over.

Look at the images below.

-*-

My upper cheeks are usually dry and sensitive but somehow it doesn't anymore. The whole area looks so pampered and well taken care off.

Thank you so much Oya Clinic for help contouring my face, the magic cream is awesome and help defining my facial contour. The process itself is comfortable and really enjoyed the pampering effect.

Do you want to try the treatment?

Good news!!

Oya Clinic is providing a 50% off for the Face Contour treatment. Just print out the voucher below and make an appointment at Oya Clinic.

One print out is for one person, so let's say you are with 2 of your friends, print three of these vouchers.

Thank you.

Etude House Alphabet Masks

Hi everyone!!

When I passed on Guardian and see that these masks are on buy one get one free, I immediately get me some of those masks. The Alphabet masks from Etude House offer different ingredients accordingly and I love to try some.

-*-

I'm not interested in ingredients such as Aloe, Hyaluronic Acid, or other 'common' ingredients, so I get Elder Flower, Immortelle, Job's Tears, and Pomegranate.

-*-

Each come with different function, do click on each image to read them up close.

Some provide nourishment, hydration, brightening effect, moisture, and anti aging properties.

-*-

But personally, I think you need to use them frequently to see the significant effects.

-*-

The quality of the mask itself is okay, as in so far I didn't find them irritating the skin, comfortable to be used even on daily basis, contain lots of fluid for the mask to even last a full hour on the skin without being dry.

-*-

Using the mask itself also very easy, just peel the package open, put the mask on a cleaned and toned skin and relaxed so the nourishment easily absorbed on the skin. I find these masks suitable to be used on mid day when the temperature is high and acts as a cooling agent. When used on night time, it can also induce relaxation.

Don't forget to use a moisturizer afterwards to help seals the serum inside.

-*-

The material is a mixture of cottony paper, decently thick and each product comes with their own scent, so I don't think they are fragrance-free.

-*-

As usual, the size is too big for my face, more like my husband's size >.< perhaps they made the mask for unisex and anyone with any face size heehee.

And look below, the leftover liquid is just a lot. The color is slightly milky.

-*-

Overall,

I do enjoy using the mask, they are affordable, suitable for daily use and doesn't contain 'heavy' ingredients hence it pretty much suitable for all skin type. This is more like face mask for fun and relaxation than a 'seriously' made mask (that also comes with high price).

-*-

Still, I do feel the urge to collect the whole alphabet and try them all ^__^

Guerlain Meteorites

Hello lovelies,

last weekend I was invited by Guerlain for their new collection.

The Meteorites itself has been a real treat and famous all around the world. The pearlites are super pretty and the packaging itself worth collecting for.

Now, they announcing two new babies for the collection.

-*-

The event is held at Pacific Place, located at the Beauty Lounge, the event is casual and comfortable.

-*-

One of the product launched is Meteorites Oxygen Care Moisturizer & Radiance Booster.
http://www.guerlain.com
Thanks to Météorites Oxygen Care, the skin is smoother, even-toned and more beautiful. It is instantly revived, for radiance that lasts all day. Day after day, its radiance is renewed at the source.

Météorites has been the expert in illuminating make-up since 1987 thanks to a unique alchemy that brings together technology and pure magic. Today it is extending its expertise to skincare.

This fluid cream hydrates the skin to immediately renew its natural light from the inside out, for long-lasting results. The formula's complex is O2 Light, which helps encourage the skin's natural light receptors. A light-reflecting polymer blurs surface imperfections for a visibly more radiant complexion.

=*-

The color of the light creamy gel is white when it is first come out from the pump bottle.

-*-

But I swirl and massage it a bit, it turns into this pearly glow. From pink, purplish, blue and all the colors of the rainbow, kinda like the Meteorites itself. So beautiful, and I instantly fell in love with  the scent, the violet is really inimitable and truly addictive.

-*-

On the table, the moisturizer is paired with the powder. The one that started it all.

-*-

Soon after, Fey started the makeup demo.

-*-

And I started wandering around for another product launch that day, the Meteorites Compact.

Below (from left to right) is the moisturizer, powder and compact.

-*-

Meteorites Compact
As a perfect example of its beauty expertise, Guerlain has transformed its legendary Météorites pearls into a stunning compact. The pearls are finely pressed to form a beautiful mosaic of light-enhancing and corrective shades. Together, they create a subtle and natural effect by giving every skin tone just the right amount of light and correction. The Météorites signature palette of corrective matte shades - refreshing pink and light-catching mauve - gently balance the complexion, while the dazzling pearls temper the shades’ intensity and blend harmoniously for perfectly tailored luminosity. The complexion glows with purest light. The skin looks soft, smooth, delicate and beautifully natural.

Comes in three shade from fair, medium, to dark.

Do check out my instagram @carnellin to see the inside look of the compact.

-*-

And of course, Meteorites Baby Glow. Light Revealing Sheer Makeup that also comes with the same philosophy of Meteorites, that pearly luminous glow.

-*-

So when used altogether, you'll have this fairy-angelic-soft glow all over your skin that will definitely turn heads.

-*-

Back to the makeup demo.

Below is the model, she already using some of the products from Meteorites, which is moisturizer and Baby Glow.

-*-

Using all product from Guerlain from beginning, and yes, you do know that Guerlain actually carries full makeup and skincare collection?! They are also famous is the perfume world as well.

My personal favorite from Guerlain is actually their skincare, their serum is just superb and I love how they felt on the skin plus the effects too. I highly recommend Abeille Royale.

-*-

Back to The Meteorites and makeup demo.

She is finally done, and look how the products made her skin look fabulous, the glow, the irresistible luminous finish from Meteorites. Start from the moisturizer, baby glow, and powder. The combination of these babies, is multicolored infusion of radiance.

-*-

And of course, looking at home gorgeous the model has become, I ask Fey to help me get that look. Since I don't have much time, the powder alone is used for a quick touch up.

-*-

And the powder alone made me glow. It is so pretty. I wonder how I'll look like when using everything from the moisturizer, baby glow all the way to the powder/compact powder.

-*-

Thank you so much Guerlain Indonesia, I'll review the products I received soon and hope to see you all again with more babies from Guerlain.

-*-




Au revoir!
