The Good and The Forbidden

Lip Products I Carried on My Japan Trip

March 22, 2018

On our honeymoon trip, I didn’t bring a single conventional lipstick. I didn’t want to bother with my makeup too much because it will affect the time we go out in the morning, even during the day. I wanted things to be simple, quick and easy, including touch-ups. And of course, it has to be moisturizing.

I guess you could say, these are the official my lip products of choice.

LOTW – Rollover Reaction SUEDED!

October 17, 2016

This is a very long overdue review. This brand, shall I say, sparked a fire in the Indonesian beauty scene. It has also become one of the pioneers to inspire the local beauty industry to up the game. Everything about it is very different than the usual local selection. Finally. A brand that I can proudly wear and tell.

Rollover Reaction, a catchy name for a brand, with a tagline of “cosmetics for the creatively inclined”. launched earlier this year on March 2016. Since its inception, the brand is already breaking different doors and filling the yearning of a cool, indie local beauty brand.

The Effortless ADDICTION Cheek Stick Rose Bar

January 1, 2016

This is clearly an overdue review. I should’ve reviewed this long ago but managed to being ignorant about it. That alone should tell you how much I love this product. However, realizing that I only have half of this left, it’s about time to do the deets 😀

Long time followers would know that I’m obsessed with ADDICTION by Ayako (here and here). The Japanese brand has an extensive, yet still well curated selection of products. It oozes simplicity with a modern edge. Its biggest charm for me are the cheek items. I find them to be very unique and incredibly versatile. Obviously, they left me wanting more. And more.

Meet the one product that has been in my constant makeup routine for months, ADDICTION by Ayako Cheek Stick in Rose Bar.

LoTW: TATCHA Kyoto Red Silk Lipstick

November 30, 2015

More than a year ago, TATCHA posted a photo of Chloë Sevigny wearing a red lipstick and saying they’re coming out with one. I was head over heels and immediately put it on my wishlist.

How can I not?

The brand, as we know, is heavily inspired by the ancient geisha beauty rituals and their skincare line is built around the precious ancient book that Victoria Tsai, TATCHA‘s founder, came across on her travels to Japan. It was a brilliant move from TATCHA creating this piece because geisha and their signature red pouts are unquestionably inseparable.

TATCHA aptly named it Kyoto Red Silk Lipstick.

LoTW: Lipstick Queen Velvet Rope – Star System

August 18, 2015

Lo and behold.

I fall into the nude lip, deeply.

Who knew, the girl who wears the brights and bold on a daily basis could fall for something that’s “flat”? I think it’s ought to change. It’s surprisingly inevitable.

Because deep inside, I was longing for the other spectrum.

Clarins Lip Comfort Oil – WHY?!

July 21, 2015

OK, before I start, let me tell you that the product I’m about to make a review on is limited edition and it’s probably going to be tricky to acquire by now.

Wonk wonk wonk..

I contemplated on whether I should write about it or not, back and forth. It’s rather fruitless but I feel that this product worth a spot in TheFruitCompote.com.

So here it is, Clarins Instant Light Lip Comfort Oil 01 Honey.

BASIC SKINCARE ROUTINE

Cleanse – Hydrate – Moisturize – Protect (SPF)

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

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.

His & hers POV. His & hers POV.
It’s a beautiful sunny day, celebrating the laun It’s a beautiful sunny day, celebrating the launch of @jomalonelondon’s Blossoms Collection 2022, with Sardinian Summer as theme, right at the beachside 🧡 Warm weather, wind blowing swiftly and continuously, paired with greens, sparkling sand, clear blue sky and jeweled-colored sea. It’s picturesque.

For this collection, there are three, two new fragrances and one existing. They are Sea Daffodil, Bitter Mandarin and Silk Blossom. The notes are light, airy and flowing. Usually summer scents can be a little too strong on the citrus, tangy-acidic side, but these are put together that don’t make me feel heady.

I’m loving Sea Daffodil and it’s my number one pick from the collection. A mixture of Pink Pepper, Mandarin Orange as starters, Sea Daffodil and Ylang-Ylang as the heart, Sandalwood, Madagascar Vanilla and Vetiver to ground everything. Result? A smile-inducing scent. There’s this hint of sweet & creaminess that pulled me in right away. I close my eyes and I get the reference of that warm summer with the soft notes.

I’ll head down to the boutique soon to sniff Bitter Mandarin and Silk Blossom again. I have a feeling the latter might come home with me. It layers so effortlessly with Sea Daffodil and I can imagine it singing together with other scents too ♥️

Slide until the end 👀 I’ve always said the f Slide until the end 👀

I’ve always said the foundation of a healthy skin is hydration 💦 Gak perlu jauh2 dulu, fokus di hidrasi aja udah bisa bikin perubahan yg berarti. Basic skincare itu gak boleh dianggep remeh 👌🏼
 
Meet @blpskin Tremella Daily Hydrating Series! Dari namanya aja udah kebayang, Tremella - Daily - Hydrating. Tremella Fuciformis, atau yg kita kenal sebagai jamur kuping putih/snow fungus (sering kita makan di Peach Gum dessert) - ini jadi hero ingredient di produk2nya. As an alternative to Hyaluronic Acid, dia bisa menahan air 500x dari beratnya sendiri. Molekulnya juga lebih kecil dari lebih mudah diserap. Dia juga bisa kasi semacam lapisan film untuk membantu jaga skin barrier dan menahan kelembapan itu sendiri.
 
“Daily” di sini berarti these products are for everyday use! Straight-forward sekali! Cleanser - Toner - Serum - Moisturizer dengan fokus yang teramat jelas, hydration. Selain Tremella, tiap produk juga ada tambahan ingredient berbeda dengan tujuan masing2. Gak susah buat dimengerti, gak perlu pusing boleh mix ina-inu, gak ribet, tinggal pake aja 😄
 
Dari awal aku langsung suka sama cleanser-nya. Tipikal gentle cleanser yang aku approve, gak bikin ketarik. Toner-nya dengan tekstur air yang “gendut”, gak gampang hilang/menguap di kulit, langsung bikin lebih lembap. Serumnya sendiri bisa buat hydration booster atau di layer dengan serum lain with other targeted focus.
 
Untuk umurku sekarang yang udah mid 30s dan kondisi kulit yg semakin dehidrasi dan kering, the gel (cream) isn’t enough for my skin. I think the texture itself is great dan cocok buat humid weather. Pak D lagi suka pake ini sekarang. Kalo aku malah suka layer another heavier product on top biar lembapnya makin pol.
 
Menurutku @blpskin #TremellaDailyHydratingSeries ini bisa jadi pegangan buat yang baru mulai pake skincare; pre-teen, teenagers, early 20s. Yang belum ada kebutuhan khusus, pengennya maintain skin hydration and of course building the good habit 👌🏼
