Dear Vivianne

Hi, Viv. I'm writing about you, as you requested once!

So, I met this beautiful girl named Vivianne. She's perhaps my only friends from SEA who happens to take the same class with me.
And to be honest, I thought she was stalked me. And she thought too! Until one day, she picked a seat next to me and officially introduce herself because she wanted to know where to buy my boots! (oh Viv. You could do better).

She is from Philippines. Her mother is pinoy, and her father is Japanese. So, you will see a kind of exotic mixture in her.


My first impression?
She is a w e s o m e. She takes organizing into next level. She has the most neat-est notes in the class. Her bag is only filled with essential survival stuff.
She is that kind of DIY girl. I can see it on her subscribe list on Youtube yet you can see that what she wear is original. Mostly selfmade.

But she doesn't do blog. She is not into taking good photos or putting words into nice paragraphs.
I can say she is pretty introvert. But doesn't mean she don't talk much. She is talented as an announcer, I guess. She is the first to knows juicy gossips around. She socialize normally. She is blatant about truth. Not a kind of geek-nerd-psycho introvert.

Actually, it's her birthday. Her 20th bday!
I wish you a happy birthday dear Vivianne Layson. Thanks for being such a good listener yet such a good living timeline in my life. Thanks for sharing your tiny apartment for us. Thanks to spare you time to walk me to follow where the sun sets almost every weekend. Thanks for your great tv series recommendation.
Long life, wish you all the best.

Pencil Eyeliner Turns To Gel Liner?

What? Beneran, Luce?  Ga usah ngaco deh.

Iya guys, beneran. Gue juga agak-agak ga percaya pas baca di thebeautydepartment. Setelah gue baca dan gue coba sendiri, it does magically really work.
So, buat kamu yang cinta sama pencil eyeliner tapi mau dapet warna yang strong like gel liner, you should proceed to next paragraph.



Pertama siapin eyeliner pensil yang mau kamu ubah. Mau lama atau baru terserah. Tapi kalo kamu belum yakin, cari yang eyeliner lama dulu deh.
Kedua, cari sumber api. Entah itu dari korek, kompor, gosok-gosok batu (Lucie, please!).

Caranya? Tinggal bakar ujung eyeliner pensil. It’s a bit tricky kalo gue bilang.
Pensil itu sejatinya bakal melunak kalo kena panas lama-lama.
Jadi lo bisa dapet dua kemungkinan: perfect gel liner, atau pensil yang putus dan lo harus segera cari rautan!

This is how I deal with them. Pencil eyeliner cuma gue bakar sekitar satu detik tapi berkali-kali.

Bingung? Ilustrasinya gini.
Nyalain api. Anggap sekitar api itu kertas. Lo tinggal gambar atau coret-coret garis lurus imajiner di sekitarnya, sampe kira-kira garisnya tebel. Paham kan, paham kan ^^

Udah segitu doang. Dibakar doang.
Aplikasiinnya? Sama kayak pake pecil eyeliner aja.
Tapi, lo harus hati-hati. Gue saranin jangan langsung dipake. Ditiup-tiup dulu ujung pensilnya karena panas banget. Dan kalo bisa diswatch dulu di tangan, udah warna yang lo mau apa belom, udah dingin apa belom, patah engga kalo dipake.
Kalo warnanya kurang, lo bisa bakar lebih lama lagi.

Gimana hasil kalian? :D

Stres final berujung mini haul

Sekarang ini gue lagi masuk fase kerja keras mau final. 
Akibatnya gue stres, muncullah jerawat-jerawat dari persembunyiannya.
Dan di saat begini, udah seminggu skin care dan make up gue tinggal 5ml di botolnya.
Gue heran kenapa kali ini cepet banget habisnya.
Gue inget banget engga gue minum(?).

But finally!
Akhirnya ortu gue kirimin uang bulanan, yay!
They are the best!
At least, satu faktor gue stress udah ilang ^^



Soo habis kelas gue langsung cabut ke Cosmetics Market, bareng si Viviane.
Cuma 10 menitan dari kampus gue. 
Bukan pertama kali sih gue ke sini, but I’m still excited like hell.
Pengen rasanya gue pindahin itu toko ke Jakarta.



Endingnya?
Seperti di judul, gue adopsi tuh makeup.
Mostly gue borong LA Girl.
Ada NYX beberapa.
Gue juga mau nambah elf, tapi engga dulu deh.
Andaikan perut gue bisa dikasih makan brush, gue udah beli itu elf.
Reveiwnya nyusul yaap.
Gue tepar.
Literally tired!
Gue bobo cantik dulu, okay?
See ya peeps.

Review: NYX Black Label Lipstick

Sesuai janji gue di post sebelumnya tentang review hasil haul gue, kali ini gue mau ngeriview NYX Black Label Lipstick! Shade yang gue beli sweet prawn sama cherry.

Gue pernah denger sih dari beauty vlogger, katanya si NYX itu lipsticknya creamy pigmented banget. Karena itu gue penasaran.
Dan selain itu, gue liat di counternya warnanya menggoda banget. That's why gue beli empat shade kali ini dan warnanya agak netral.

Ini swatch si cherry dan silver prawn di tangan. Yang kiri sweet prawn, yang kanan cherry:



Ini yang di bibir:



Gue bilang sih untuk produk luar ini lumayan murah ya. Dengan kualitas yang bagus, packaging yang elegan, this is absolutely my fave brand!

Repurchase?
Yaaaasssshhh! Gue in love sama silver prawn. Tapi gue pengen coba warna lainnya sih.

March Haul

Gue lupa udah berapa lama engga beli make up.
Alesannya sih karena muka gue lagi break out parah gara-gara gue lupa bawa sabun muka pas pjamas party.
Alhasil gue terpaksa pinjem sabun temen gue, Sharon.
And now she laughed in front of me because of my break out!
 Jadi, seteah kulit normal, gue mulai berburu!

Di Centro aja sih.
Setelah sekian lama memendam hasrat ingin meminang NYX, kesampean deh hari ini.
Mama gue marah-marah gue boros banget soal make up.
Belom habis, udah beli.
Belom ada sebulan, udah nambah.
Ampun mama ampun.



Jadi, beli apa aja?
NYX Contour and Highlight and my fave item, Black Label Lipstick.
Udah ditawarin sama SPG-nya sih lipstick matte, tapi si mama udah melotot mengerikan.
Habis itu gue lanjut ke Cache Cache.
Yah ada beberapa yang gue beli.
Ah sama gue nyobain White Musk-nya The Body Shop.
Akan gue review seminggu lagi.



Keep it up with Lucie!

Jika

Saat jiwa telah bertekad
Saat raga mendukung
Jika waktu memisahkan
Akankah kau menunggu?

Saat hati telah terusik
Saat fisik telah tersakiti
Jika ruang memisahkan
Akahkah kau berlari?
