The Good and The Forbidden

Baby Foot To The Rescue!

August 20, 2018

Baby, what?

It’s Baby Foot, a Japanese brand that sells foot peeling pack for that soft and smooth feet, since 1997. Apparently, there are many brands out there, even with similar names. So this whole foot peeling business isn’t new for some people, but intriguing for many!

Fun fact, over the years, Baby Foot has kept improving its formula. The older versions needed 2 hours of use. Then they changed into Fruit Acids, developed an all-in-one pack with the booties. Made it into 60 minutes, until the 30-minute pack that is sold now in Indonesia (other countries might sell the 60 minutes version).

I personally have been using this product for over a year and after a few times of uses, I’m ready to write it all down.

The Body Shop Spa Of The World Firming Ritual – Prepping for The Big Day

September 22, 2017

Everyone, or at least beauty junkies anyway, loves a good me-time. Whether it’s putting on makeup, walking in the city, going to the movies alone, or just watching Netflix (oh wait, that’s me too). In my case, any skincare routine is my me-time. To put it in simple terms, I pamper myself everyday 😀

Spending the time in taking good care of ourselves, whatever that might be, will do wonderful things for our psyche. Happy mood will increase our productivity during the day. Ensures to have clearer mind and give a more positive vibe to our aura.

As my wedding day approaches, I’m trying to keep my calm and zen as I have throughout the whole preparation. I won’t lie there were a few times where certain situations ticked my nerves. But, all in good fun. There’s a new routine I’ve introduced in the past couple of weeks. Nothing drastic or risky, just a great addition to the existing one I have.

It’s The Body Shop Spa Of The World Firming Ritual*.

TATCHA Soothing Silk Body Butter – Life Saver

October 10, 2016

I rarely share my body care rituals because.. I don’t really have one. I mean, not an extensive routine like my skincare one. There are products that I use but not consistently. You know, I’ll only use them when I feel the need to. I’m sure some of you can relate.

However, there is one particular product that I keep going back to. It’s also a family’s favorite.

Icing The Body with Evete Naturals Body Butters

April 13, 2015

I rarely use body lotion/butters/creams, or any body care products for that matter. I was simply being, negligent, or rather, I didn’t think I need it.

For real? NO, I’m just LAZY.

I’ve bought quite a few in the past, only to let them prettify the vanity desk. But, seeing my mom quite religiously put hers every night and her skin is always soft and moisturized (obviously), I thought that I should try to get myself on that bandwagon.

I was generously sent by Evete Naturals four out of the five variants in their Body Butter collection. To know about the brand more, you can read my review on the Lip Balms here.

TATCHA Indigo Soothing Silk Hand Cream – for the lazy bum

October 6, 2014

One of my beauty resolutions that I failed to do every single year is to wear hand cream and body lotion regularly. I always forgot about it *yeah, right*. I’m LAZY. Here’s the thing, my hands tend to sweat, so adding a hand cream usually would just make them even stickier. I spend most of my time in front of my laptop and the condition of the keyboard and body is quite worrisome already, you know, that grease, shiny mess. I wash my hands every few hours and yet.. they’ll get ‘dirty’ in no time.

That being said though, washing hands often obviously is taking a toll. They could get really dry at times and people around me would ask “why do your hands feel so dry? Go and wear a hand cream”. Ahem.

Enter, TATCHA Indigo Soothing Silk Hand Cream*.

BASIC SKINCARE ROUTINE

Cleanse – Hydrate – Moisturize – Protect (SPF)

Sunscreen at daytime, always.
Double Cleanse at night, a must!

Exfoliate regularly, as necessary, and don’t overdo it.
Don’t forget to use a Hydrating Toner after Exfoliating Acid Toner to prevent dryness and irritation.

Opt for calming and soothing products more than anything else. Pick gentle cleansers. Aim for hydration and moisture. Maintain the skin barrier.

Proper hydration and balanced moisturization are key to achieving a healthy skin, even if your skin is oily.

Always be gentle on your skin.

I was watching Izakaya Bottakuri and I saw Zosui, I was watching Izakaya Bottakuri and I saw Zosui, immediately wanted to make it cos I have all of the ingredients! It’s a great way to utilize leftovers too.

Apart from adding soy sauce, I could also add white pepper or Togarashi for some heat. I think it’s best to keep the flavors on the simpler side, that’s the charm of it ✨

It’s so warm & comforting. Pak D ended up having seconds, thirds and finished the entire pot 🥺

It’s only the first month of 2023 and I can see It’s only the first month of 2023 and I can see myself using @lancomeofficial Rénergie Triple Serum all year round!

I was already intrigued by the serum when I saw it a few months ago. I remember I pumped the bottle and got mesmerized instantly. I love smart and thoughtful formulations and this is definitely one of them!

The addition of Ferulic Acid on top of Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Hyaluronic Acid work not only as a potent antioxidant in its own right (it reduces redness too), but it also boosts the performance of the Vitamin C. Together, they make some serious combination for those who are looking for a simpler routine yet impactful ✨

A month of usage but I can clearly see the difference and the potential! I personally love using this on daytime because it offers high antioxidants and it keeps my skin looking fresh even after a day’s out. At nighttime, this works to rejuvenate the skin while I’m sleeping. This one hits the sweet spot for me 👌🏼

This #LancomeID #Renergie Triple Serum is available on all Lancome counters and official store on Lazada!
Easy peasy, foolproof recipe! If you want the sim Easy peasy, foolproof recipe!

If you want the simplest way, just add the olive vegetable to a warm rice and mix it together.

I add the olive vegetable after the rice because I need to adjust the flavor. I usually start with a heaping tablespoon. I’ll add more if I need it. I don’t add any more salt. I could add some pepper (or chili) though, depending on how I feel that day 😄

There are so many variations that we can do with this. Porridge also tastes bomb with this. Totally up to you! Enjoy 🫶🏼
