The Good and The Forbidden

My Picks for Easy Contour and Subtle Shadows

May 19, 2016

It’s true. Makeup are there to make us look prettier. It’s there to enhance our features. To make us more confident. And there’s nothing wrong with that.

As for myself, I feel my face lacks the definition, stronger lines. I opt for contour powders to make up what’s missing. Below, I’m going to share you the products that I use to achieve it.

On The Go – Touch Ups and Essentials

June 3, 2015

Carrying a small bag is a challenge. I used to carry a LOT of stuff in my bag. The bags alone can weigh quite substantially. Adding a wallet, keys, charger, myriad of lipsticks.. I got myself a potato sack.

Earlier this year, I change things up by getting a small bag, Céline Trio. For the better, because I didn’t regret it at all and actually should’ve done it sooner. Alas, I was picky about which bag to choose. A smaller bag means downsizing and prioritizing, something that I was very excited about.

This post will cover beauty products I carry on a daily basis and when I go to a special occasion.

Complexion Routine: The Extra Mile

May 20, 2015

A couple of weeks ago, I posted a photo on my Instagram showing my makeup that I did to attend one of my high school friends’ wedding. I took this occasion as a challenge because I had PMS and my skin was breaking out pretty bad. Not just that, my skin was really dehydrated and there were quite a few of dry patches because I still had a flu back then. Bottom line, my skin wasn’t its usual self.

That day, I needed to look presentable (more than usual), polished without looking like I piled on a lot on my face; I never liked that look and I’m not about to start now. In this post, I will cover a lot of things, not just list of products, but also details on why I like them and how I use them. This way, I hope that I also can share my complexion makeup routine.

That being said, this is going to be a LONG post. Brace yourself. Grab a popcorn.

Without further adieu, here’s what I did and use on my complexion:

Never Forget – Inner Corner Highlight!

May 8, 2015

One of the most-asked questions I got from people on my Instagram, emails and in real life is what I use on my inner corners in my eye makeup. Well, before I sound like a broken record, I think it’s wise to just make a post about it!

Inner corner highlight is an integral part of my eye makeup. It’s highly crucial that I never missed this step. The one time that I did forget, I felt something big was missing. My makeup didn’t feel complete without it.

See, the thing is, highlighting the inner corners does so many good things to my eyes and overall makeup look. It gives more definition to my eyes and creates an illusion of a bigger, wider set of eyes. I also think it makes the sides of my nose appear slimmer when paired with a nose contour.

And of course, it makes me look AWAKE.

The Molten Tom Ford Cream Color for Eyes in Platinum

March 23, 2015

It’s probably a little too late to talk about this product, or, rather pointless. Because the product is part of Tom Ford Beauty Holiday 2014 Collection and it’s a limited edition *boo*

But I’m going to post it anyway because hey, who knows it’s going to make a comeback, yet again.

Tom Ford Cream Color for Eyes in 01 Platinum.

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.

This could be the year for @lancomeofficial as the This could be the year for @lancomeofficial as the brand has been releasing great products with stellar formulations lately! After the Rénergie Triple Serum success on me, the Rénergie HPN Cream really becomes the cherry on top 🍒

I’ve been using it for the past couple of months, day and night. It doesn’t take long for me to fall in love with it. The first thing that I noticed is the increase plumpness and firmness on the cheeks down - which is always a good sign in my book. As I go into my 30s, I do notice a decrease in hydration and slight loss of volume. So a product like this will always be appreciated. When I combine the Rénergie Triple Serum and HPN Cream together, I really get a dynamic duo. The brightening, even skin tone is more highlighted.

The texture may look quite thick from the outside, but after blending it into the skin, it has a nice balance of hydration and moisture while still manages to be quite lightweight. I apply a bit more during nighttime or finish off with a sleeping mask for enhanced moisture.

I also think it goes well with other products too, don’t really have to think about ingredients clashing, because it’s a friendly 👌🏼 If you’re like me nowadays and prefer for a quick routine yet still deliver experience and results, put this cream on your wishlist! Stat!

663/1000 - what a humbling honor to be a part of t 663/1000 - what a humbling honor to be a part of the grand launch of The Ultimate S Cream with the special display box.

I am obsessed with the design details. An homage to the historical Korean moon jar, representing the richness and wholesomeness of the moon itself. Clean cuts. Soft, smooth matte to the touch. 

Sulwhasoo’s recent rebranding possesses a look that marriage heritage and modernity. Cleaner facade yet still with shapes & lines of the bottles and jars that remind you of the old times. A representation of the brand’s philosophy in combining heritage, art and innovation.

I don’t like to play favorites, because I think I don’t like to play favorites, because I think every product that I like has its own merits and place in my routine. But, there are certain brands and products that I just keep getting back to. 

@sulwhasoo.indonesia is one of the few. The First Care Activating Serum is indeed the first product that I tell everyone to try if you want to dive into this brand. The 6th Gen indeed boasts newer technology, Sulwhasoo Master Complex™️. And for the first time, there’s Ginseng active in it! It cares for the skin’s inherent ability to renew and take care of itself. It really is a great booster serum!

Gentle Cleansing Foam - if you haven’t tried this, you should. I only need very little for each use, it lasts quite a really long time. If you need a first cleanser, pair it with Gentle Cleansing Oil too. Just like the name, they’re gentle and don’t strip my skin afterwards. The scent? Heavenly.

White Ginseng Radiance Mask - can be used as a facial scrub and mask at one go. The combination of herbals and soft particles soften the skin surface. It’s a type of mask that I will use while I’m showering, so I can wash it off altogether.

If you’re like me and you just want to swim yourself in a luxurious cream, Concentrated Ginseng Renewing Cream should be on the wishlist. I do think this help with “filling” the pockets of my skin, making it denser and firmer. Just apply and enjoy the experience, really! ☺️
