TURNING POINT.

Living in the capital outskirt ( read : Tangerang ), going to Jakarta has become a huge hustle, mainly the traffic jam and also the need to look for a transportation ( read : tebengan ). Feels like I missed a lot of cool spot to hangout since going to the capital is not a convenience choice. But! Recently I found out some cool places in Tangerang, that makes me say goodbye to all the traffic to Jakarta, because now, Tangerang has become more gaul than it used to be.

Introducing one of a small cafe in Serpong, Tangerang. I've visited this cafe to 3 times already. All the visits are a pleasant one and I've always find my way back to this small cozy space. 

"Turning Point" - located in Ruko Golden, Gading Serpong, Tangerang. quite close to my home in Karawaci, around half an hour drive. Looking for this cafe might be a little tricky at first, because it doesn't have any banner to point the exact place. But, since the Ruko mostly is still empty, with a few look on the place where all the cars are parked, you probably will find it easily. 

I think the rest would be easier to explain if you just look at the pictures :>

 hayo siapa yang sok-sok an pake bahasa Korea = me!

On my first visit, there was an unforgettable accident I may say, so as i ordered an iced latte (with ice cream, not blocks of ice) the glass broke, like into two pieces when my friend held it and it successfully ruined my friend's and my clothes - and apparently it already happened more than once. Because all the staffs seems to be pretty cool about it. They did apologize and gave me another glass of iced latte - but it this happened in Korea? I would probably get a free cake for a compensation. 

Other than that, the coffee is amazing and the cakes are #dabomb. Should gave the lychee-watermelon cake the best invention of the year!

Then : crazy girls doing a mindless photo sessions :

Of course per product has different pigmentation and texture, in average they're great for its price! The mattes are a little bit chalkier than the shimmers. The pigmentations are great though! 

Now, I'll go in details for the shades : 

Starting off the lightest color in my palette, #68 air breathing is described in the "pressed satin-pearl" type and it's a light champagne beige shade and it's a great shade for inner corner to make that aegyo-sal eye look! I prefer these kinda shades more than white/gold because it's more neutral and doesn't look too "highlighting"

#77 Love mode is a pressed matte type and it's actually a light taupe shade with pinky shade, it definitely look too light in the picture, but you'll see later in the swatch its true pigmentation. 

#69 Magenta is nowhere close to magenta - it's a warm camel shade and it's also a pressed matte type. Both #77 Love Mode and #69 Magenta is a great crease shade and for blending the shades together. 

#64 Maxi is categorized in the pressed-satin pearl type - it's a warm dark chocolate shade with bronze glitters on. 

#65 Single Malt is probably my favorite shade out of all 6 shades. It's has a satin finish and it's grouped as pressed satin pearl finish. It's a cool taupe shade and it looks absolutely gorgeous allover the lid. 

#90 Smoke is a pressed matte finish and it's a dark chocolate shade, and the pigmentation isn't the best out of all. But it still works as a shade to deepen the look. 

Overall in my opinion the shimmers perform better than the mattes, just like most Korean brand's eyeshadows in general. 

Aritaum made a few selection of eyeshadow cases to fit these mono eyes eyeshadow singles, and I pick the 6 pots as it was the biggest. It's very simple, just a black case - and it' gives room for you creative souls to decorate your own, as I did to mine! :)

EXO-MON! :D or POKE-EXO! 

It's great for you who want to customize your own palette and your own shades too! The price is really affordable too and the color selection is broad. I'm pretty much satisfied with my shade selection for this palette (and those cute pokemons!!) 

I've brought this palette for travelling a lot since it has all the shades I need. People starting up with eyeshadows would probably best to ask your friend to pick up the shades you'll need for your daily look. 

Overall, I've been loving this cute set I build up - after all it took a while to actually decide to build this little palette. A lot of Koreans raved about this product, I think the price can't go wrong actually. Some people have problem with fallouts, but I don't think it has that much of fallouts. 

It's just the shimmers / satin shades are better than the matte, but I do need a matte shade to blend my eyeshadow so I need one. 

One thing is, even though the palettes has a little hole to pick the shadow pots, but it doesn't exist on the single pots - so depoting these = took years. 

Thankyou for reading this post! Comment down below for questions! :) Have a great day! :D
