Skincare Tidbits

#TFCSkincareSalad

INSTAGRAM @KAEPRATIWI

These are what I've been using to nourish my eye area with as of late. With all the common questions I received, if you want to keep the eye area moisturized (hence less-perceived fine lines), use eye creams diligently. Dark circles are hard, if not, impossible to be remedied. Best stick to corrector + concealer for that. I'm saying it's impossible because people tend to expect A LOT for an eye cream and that's just unrealistic. For me, trying to have a good lifestyle on top of skincare is the major factor for the overall skin's health, including the eye area. 1️⃣ My own eye serum blend, loaded with antioxidants - contains Camellia Tea Seed Oil, Flaxseed Oil, Sweet Almond Oil, Rosehip Oil, Pomegranate Oil, Lavender EO. I also add Vitamin E to prolong the antioxidant quality. Super proud with the consistency (I'm biased clearly 😂). It sinks fast into the eye area and wears well under my makeup. The eye area is moisturized just right and there's no greasiness at sight. Technically I can use it as a face oil too but I'd stick to the eye area only. 2️⃣ @patyka_id Radiant Eye Contour - another great option for those who wants lightweight eye creams. Lovely ingredients. The texture is ideal and I have a feeling a lot of people will agree to such texture. The airless packaging and dispenser are very unique and will keep the product fresh for longer. It does have light reflective pigments: titanium dioxide (also works as a UV blocker though I won't say the product itself has SPF since it doesn't state that) and mica. I think the minerals are for cosmetic purposes only, which is why I like to use it for daytime and under makeup. 3️⃣ @lancomeofficial Eye Mask as a once-a-month treatment. There's quite a few liquid inside the mask, so I can reuse it for about 5 days at maximum. I keep them in the fridge for that cooling, depuffing action. I'd leave them on for about 10 minutes, smooth over the extra liquid then use either of the two above on top afterwards. I say it's worth the splurge considering I only use them once a month. The mask makes my eye area look well-rested and hydrated. o. #TFCSkincareSalad #TheFruitCompote Swing swing don't get dizzy. My krezi #ibuibuhot 🤗 Nothing is dull whenever they are around ❤ @holycow_radal #bukber #steakhotelbyholycow #tkpbintaroplayground Played around with @rollover.reaction #CoolCat SUEDED! collection yesterday. I have Rah on my eyes - seriously this looks amazing on the lids! Grace and Blondie mixed together and dabbed on my cheeks. Psst, adding Sally makes a beautiful pairing too! Aaaand last but not least, Blondie on my lips 💋 o. I love how @rollover.reaction is very consistent with the SUEDED formula across the entire shade range. When it comes to the pearlescent finishes (including Penny), I honestly never thought it could be this comfortable wearing that many shimmers on the lips. There's no grittiness or that awkward feeling on the lips, maybe very minimal, but it's on the undetectable zone for sure. o. #RolloverReaction #GetGroovin #GetSueded #TheFruitCompote The CUUUUUTESTTTTT personalized card EVERRR 😱😍❤ They even nail down our glasses to the T! Thank youuu @tanyalarasati and @popyourheart 💕 P.S. I don't think I have the heart to use this.. With the birthday lady @tanyalarasati 💕 Wishing you lots of happiness, success and hopefully a comedy show one day 😂 Celebrating our dear friend's birthday @tanyalarasati yesterday with #ibuibuhot. We munched and munched (well that's me). Too many stories to share and never enough time ❤️ Current favorite way for double cleansing. The technique itself is inspired by @infiorebeauty 4-2-4 Cleansing Method (check the web for more info). Unfortunately, I clumsily dropped Treate Cleansing Emulsion and it was beyond savable 😢. So I was out of that emulsion element. Then I got creative and am able to somewhat re-enact the method. o. The deal is, the first cleansers that I'm using don't emulsify with water, because they're pretty much oil-based and not friends with water. Well, @patyka_id Remarquable Cleansing Oil contains Apricot Kernel Oil Polyglyceryl-6 Esters as the emulsifier, but on me, it doesn't emulsify like mainstream cleansing oils. @infiorebeauty Lustra Illuminating Essence, @leahlaniskincare Bless Balm and my own oil blend are 100% oil and lipophilic so that's even trickier to remove. o. Sure I can remove it with the help of pre-soaked face cloth (mine is from @paiskincare), but when I'm wearing makeup, it will stain the cloth pretty badly. Well, the cloths aren't meant to stay clean forever but it's just displeasing to look at 😅 . o. So, the emulsion that I'm using is @skindewi Hazelnut Cleansing Milk and @antipodesskincare Hallelujah Cleanser (not pictured, ran out of it recently). What I do is massage oil/balm first into dry skin, just like I would with any cleansing oil. Then I apply few pumps of Hazelnut Cleansing Milk and massage it on top of the cleansing oil. Adding the emulsion on top removes the oil and dirt and it will wash off fairly easily with water. But I still use the face cloth as a helper. And it doesn't stain as bad *tee hee* . o. Then I come back and use the Cleansing Milk again as a second cleanser. Sounds like wasting so much product but my skin has never felt amazingly soft afterwards. No tautness, no dryness whatsoever 😍. By any means, @skindewi Hazelnut Cleansing Milk is a beautiful product on its own that balances my combination skin. o. From this experience I found that we can use face oils to remove makeup and sunscreen, BUT I wouldn't want to use my expensive face oils 😂. That being said, @infiorebeauty Lustra's ingredients look great enough to be used as a face oil, not to be washed off 😄 . Let's get groovin' with the Cool Cat 🎙✨. Swipe for more pics! Which one is your fave? Swatches L-R: Grace, Blondie, Rah. o. #RolloverReaction #GetSueded #RolloverReactionCoolCat #CoolCat #GetGroovin #TheFruitCompote
