H A U L - Highend & Seoul

Hello Everyone! Though I promise myself not to slack off and write write write every time I got a chance, the procrastination DNA that runs in my veins always sneak away and making my day less productive. But hey, I'm back!

Today is another long due post that I planned for months back, but ended up not being posted and I have to retake the pictures twice - even thrice I can't remember. As you can see from my posts, I'm usually not a girl that splurge out for beauty stuff, mainly because I'm currently living in Korea where I could get easier access to Korean beauty stuffs and also the price of high-end products that are allover pricier.

None of these product I got in Korea - and I bought these stuff with my own money unless stated! :D

Anw, here it is!



1. LORAC PRO eyeshadow palette, front of the line PRO eyeliner, and behind the scenes EYE PRIMER - Part of the Rockin' Red Hot Set for 2013 holiday. Not only it's cheaper than the eyeshadow palette itself, but it also come with bonuses to complete your eye look - eyeliner pen brush and eye primer! I got it off for IDR 600.000 from a friend KATH. I haven't try the eyeliner, but the eyeshadow palette is AS GOOD as everyone says! The primer is also great!  

2. MAC Pro longwear concealer in NC25 - HKD 150. I bought this baby in HK airport on my way back to Indonesia. And this is DA BOMB, it conceals so perfectly and definitely looooong wearing. I'm using this concealer whenever I need look 'flawless'. The pump is kinda hard to work with, but it's ok

3. BOBBI BROWN Long-Wear Even Finish Foundation SPF 15 in Warm Sand 2.5. HKD 450. Finally, my first high-end foundation that I have! I adore everything about this foundation - except for its scent that smells like a lavender massage oil. Fortunately I didn't have problem with the lavender oil. Another reason for me to invest on this foundation is because my graduation picture is going to be taken in this semester - and I definitely need a pretty good foundation so my face'll look good too. 




Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte in #7 Lingerie Pink and #8 Rose Fetish. Around KRW 55.000 - come in a pack of two, I asked a friend to purchase it for me (on an airplane - it's only available in several flight!). I always adored YSL lipstick packaging! Both of the color is pink - one is light baby pink (#7) and brighter pink (#8). I love these to death, and the scent is just so fresh, they smell like papaya! 

Yves Saint Laurent Rouge Volupte Shine in #8 Pink in Confidence. Birthday gift from Shya&Pricil! The shine line is definitely more sheer but the lasting power is as good as the other two! In less than a month I have 3 YSL lipsticks!! :O The lipstick is an MLBB shade - I know I have to use it more often but I still kept it in the box ^^;

_____________________________________________________________________________

Next is my haul from Seoul! I've been splurging tooooo much beauty product and I tell myself not to buy more beauty products. After I overlook my purchases, you can see I'm going pants crazy. BUT I did't purchase *almost* no beauty product (unless you count nail polish as beauty stuff, then I'm screwed) 


top to bottom

1 & 2. FOREVER 21 - high rise denim jeans (medium denim) - KRW 9.800 & high waisted denim jeans (indigo blue) KRW 11.800 Forever 21 is a store that I never miss when I'm in Seoul - I can order online most of their items (and it's easier that way) but looking the stuff irl definitely make purchasing decision much easier and I won't have to go through sizing / material problem from online purchasing. I'm so happy that I purchase this two jeans (especially the second one!) because f21 jeans are thin, that makes them extra comfortable! 

3. UNIQLO - Black Jeggings. KRW 19.900 I lost my favorite f21 high waisted jeggings and I didn't see it in the store or the online store :( this jeggings is definitely comfortable, but it's not as thick (nor as cheap) my f21 jeggings - but nevertheless, I'm happy! :D

4. STYLE NANDA - Belt Set Denim Big Shorts. KRW 34.700 More pictures for this shorts in SN's website. I've been looking for a shorts like this, shorts that have a very big leg opening - you know what I'm sayin'. And the fabric is soooo soft! I know I might have to wait for months until I can actually wear this outside! 

5. FOREVER 21 - White T-shirt. KRW 6.800 just another necessities - another piece that I have to wait until summer to wear. 



STYLE NANDA Nail Lacquer in MT01. KRW 4.000 - I always wanted this color so bad but it's always sold out until my last visit to SN's flagship store! I freakin' love this color - very unique and definitely shiny and pigmented. On my nail is one layer with no top coat. LOVE LOVE LOVE! 

That's it for this time! I really love doing this kinda post. Not only I can talk about a lot of product in one post, but I felt like this kinda posts are more personal than 'review's. Recently I felt my blog is so un-personal. Maybe because I feel responsible to the 240+ followers (GUYS, THANKYOU SO MUCH I CAN'T NEVER DO ALL OF THIS WITHOUT YOU GUYS)

REVIEW : Laneige's White Plus Renew Emulsion

Hello guys! Back again! Today I have a review for a skincare that I've been super loving from Laneige! It's definitely not a love at a first sight with this product. But I have been using it constantly for a month now, and I definitely see a change! This is my long-due review!



      BRAND      
laneige

      PRODUCT NAME      
white plus renew

      type of product      
(skin care) emulsion.
for all skin types. 
Day & Night

      PRICE      
krw 33.000 (100ml)

      site info     
laneige official site (korean)

Although this product is provided to me by Hotdeals in Korea, it did not gave any influence to any of my review. All the opinion stated below are all my own! Thankyou HiK!




After being sent to me from HiK, I was using other Laneige skin care that was also sent to me (Read HERE). So I have to postpone my trial for a few days. But I was really satisfied with the other Laneige product, although it's a different product, I don't want to mix both items so I could really write what I felt (like the difference and do I like the product). 



The first few day of using the product, I can't really tell how I felt, so I take the challenge and bring this product to Indonesia. While at home, I was using this religiously, just because I became used to applying this! Not after 2 weeks using this I found out the very positive effects this product brings! 


First, let's talk about the packaging. The bottle is made out of glass, quite big and heavy, definitely not travel friendly. I move some products to a travel plastic bottle, because the liquid itself is very runny, I don't have a hard time pouring the product out without a pump (Not like a ketchup bottle, if you're confused!). The bottle is not transparent, so I can't figure out how much I have left.


So, here's the magic it does : the redness near my nose and cheek area has been decreased a lot! I also noticed that it brightens up my face and evening it out!! So sad that I don't have a before-after picture because I didn't expect that the difference would be this great! 

Basically what it does is it destroy(?) pigments in the skin that are too red, yellow and black. Laneige explained it in their CF for this line :



Overall, I think this product deserve a 10 out of 10!!!! The serum (which is the main product from this line) will work so much faster to even out skin tones, but it's so freakin' expensive I might have to save up money from NOW!!

OOTD : That hot winter days

This is my first and maybe last OOTD taken in Indonesia. Haha. I shot this together with my AB pal, Clara (If you may notice, this is the different clara from my videos!). We want to shot more, but I have to reject because of my wardrobe shortage while in Indonesia. Plus, the weather is so unforgiving, we have fought the mosquitoes to get a decent picture.

I just realized that I shamelessly dressed myself in H&M and forever21 from head to toe. lol. Also I have a slight obsession with croc print leather that I might have purchase another bag with similar texture. (now I only have to look for a shoes. hmph)

It's taken sometime ago, but it just now I get the time to actually upload it. wiiiiii. Thankyou, procrastination!
