REVIEW: Lamica Beauty Brushes!

Halo semuanya! Hari ini lagi-lagi aku ngeblog pakai bahasa Indonesia ya karena we're talking about Indonesian local *very good quality (ok i'm spilling the review) Makeup Brush! Kalo kalian emang suka banget sama makeup, pasti banget udah tahu (and follow me in my instagram lol) brand LAMICA ini yaa

Aku pertama kali tahu Lamica itu dari instagram, sekitar 2 tahun lalu. Inget banget at that time, bener-bener pilihan makeup brushes di Indo (yang bagus menurut aku ya) mentok-mentok masami shouko atau armando yang bisa dibeli di department store dan kalau beli online ya Real Technique, Sigma, Morphe (eh kok banyak ya HAHA) tapi aku itu orangnya ga terlalu suka beli brush via online, dan pas IMAE 2016an ya kalo ga salah, aku bertemu akhirnya dengan konternya Lamica dan aku langsung kalap 3 brushes (DISKON SOALE lol)

ini brush yang aku beli 2 tahun lalu, masih OK BANGET kondisinya
yang aku punya (left to right) 
111 Flat Contour Brush, 204 Short Eye Shader, 305 Eyebrow Brush

And now here! 2018! Lamica actually collaborated with my Instagram account! hahahahah yesh!
They let me chose allll makeup brushes that I needed to make a full video tutorial di Instagram. Dan karena memang Lamica itu basenya online, aku cuma lihat gambar dan aku tulis nomornya dan bam! and quickly, they're home!

Pertama, walau aku engga pilih set, tapi aku teteup dikasih leather case yang UUUUU dan leather casenya parah very sturdy, dan mereka itu nempel pakai magnet. Berasa kayak mahal banget!




Semua brushnya masuk ke dalam box ini, dan mereka aman banget sampai rumah. Bahkan untuk brush yang lebih gede dan fluffy, they came in a protector!





Di video Instagram aku lebih fokus untuk nunjukin gimana aku pakai brush-brush itu, dan karena keterbatasan platform (1 menit) aku engga bisa jelasin ya dan karena aku anaknya emang pada dasarnya males edit video, I'll write it for you! (dan hemat kuota kans - aku itu emang orangnya pengertian banget loh). ANDD because I already tried it like a couple weeks, aku bisa kasih tahu pros and cons for every brushes (yang mungkin engga detail tapi kalo ada yang harus aku jelaskin secara detail akan aku tulis!) dan aku juga akan link balik ke website Lamica Beauty per individual brushnya jadi mudah kalo kalian mau navigate lebih jauh. OK LET'S GO!

IDR 200.000

Ini termasuk baru di koleksi Lamica Beauty. SUPER FLUFFY DAN BESAR. Gue merasa bedakan itu 5kali lebih cepat haha
Personally aku suka banget brush yang sintetis (bisa dilihat dengan ujungnya putih, biasanya gitu) karena less shedding (rontok) dan lebih mudah untuk dicuci!



IDE 200.000

Ini juga termasuk baru, bahannya terbuat dari natural goat hair tapi alus bangetttt. Di Video aku pakai brush ini untuk blush karena emang tujuannya aku pilih brush ini untuk blush - tapi kenyataannya ini brushnya itu gedeee banget. Sehari-hari aku suka pakai untuk powder juga dan sangking sukanya aku selalu bawa brush ini untuk travelling!



IDR 95.000

Aku pakai ini untuk aplikasi highlighter karena menurut aku daripada brush yang fluffy, brush seperti ini bisa banget buat highlighter jauh lebih "keluar" warnanya, lebih blinding if I must say. Termasuk baru juga di koleksi Lamica Beauty. Selain untuk highlighter, aku juga suka pakai untuk baking di bawah mata! Bentuknya ga spesial sih, aku punya masami shouko yang mirip sama ini juga :) tapi untuk size, Lamica punya masih lebih gede karena masami shouko punya itu lebih untuk aplikasi makeup mata



IDR 135.000

Ok, ini brush yang cocok banget untuk apa sodara-sodara? Betul sekali! Untuk Contour Pipiiiii
Nah lucunya nih, brush ini sama brush 105 Tapered Face Brush itu terbuat dari bahan yang sama, yaitu natural goat hair, tapi brush ini lebih kasar dari yang 105. Dan menurut aku susah banget cari brush mode angled seperti ini yang bukan natural hair made, kek yang fiber gitu ga pernah nemu - aku padahal berharap ini untuk halus ya (karena pernah sekali aku makeup-in orang dan dia bilang brush aku "kasar" padahal biasa aja sih DAN itu bukan brush ini ya)



IDR 95.000

Nah, di halaman koleksi produk Lamica itu ada 3 jenis concealer brush, dan aku sengaja pilih yang 127 karena aku engga punya brush model seperti itu. Dannn dua piliha lain itu aku udah ada bayangan bentuknya bakal gimana, dan pas yang aku pilih dateng aku lumayan syok karena... gede banget! hahaha ini beneran engga bisa untuk kek detailed job (seperti mbak Pony Effect yang kalo conceal jerawat itu penuh cinta dan perhatian) NAH lo ga bisa ini sekali jadi punya! That's a good thing tho! Kadang sangking gedenya ini w pake buat apply foundation lol


IDR 125.000

Berbeda dengan brush yang lain, brush ini pendek pegangannya DAN ADA BUNGKUSNYA! Bisa banget untuk dibawa jalan-jalan! Pertama kali liat brush model kayak gini karena liat video promosinya Ver.88 di facebook dan mereka pakai brush model seperti ini dan aku masih penasaran jadi aku pilih brush ini.

Overall, aku suka karena dia modelnya compact, travel friendly tapiiii hasil sapuan dese nih cenderung streaky, mungkin karena bahannya sintetik tapi engga se-tebel itu jadi foundation suka bergaris




IDR 75.000

Classic Lid Brush ini cocok banget untuk sapuin warna langsung ke whole lid - hanya ini bisa banget kegedean untuk yang punya mata kecil :)  brushnya aluuuus banget super love!


IDR 65.000

Nah, brush ini tidak se-precise namanya haha karena dari foto dan namanya, aku berniat pake brush ini untuk inner corner highlight, tapi ternyata lebih cocok untuk memberikan warna gelap di outer corner :) So that work out just fine!


IDR 75.000

Aku pake brush ini tentu untuk shading hidung AND I LOVE IT - bentuk dan size dari brush ini cocok banget ngt ngt untuk shading hidung. Langsung dari alis SRRRET ke bawah hidung!



IDR 75.000

Eyeshadow brush yang mirip sama pencil brush ini sedikit lebih besar daripada pencil brush. Dan walaupun warnanya putih guys ini terbuat dari natural goat hair, jadi dia tetep alus tapi rada megrok? apa yang bahasanya kayak mekar keluar keluar gitu rambutnya :)



IDR 75.000

Brush ini menurut aku unik banget, karena dia ini ada fluffy brush dan teteup flat! Aku suka banget untuk ngeblend eyeshadow dan ini tuh tipe-tipe brush yang cocok banget untuk blend eyeshadow pas kalo mau bikin cut crease!


NAHHH 
Gimana guys review hari ini? Sudah tjukup menjawab pertanyaan-pertanyaan brush mana yang harus kalian beliii? Atau seenggaknya bayangan deh mau beli yang mana? Seumur-umur aku juga engga pernah beli brush se-set gitu, aku malah selalu beli individual, pokoknya ada uang aku beli satu, sesuai kebutuhan deh! haha 

Dari belasan brush ini, ini favorite gue yang bener-bener rekomen banget untuk beli dari Lamica Beauty :

105 TAPERED FACE BRUSH - 205 ANGLED SHADING BRUSH - 215 FLAT BLENDING BRUSH

Overall, aku suka banget sama kualitas brush-brush Lamica Beauty ini, dan kalo kalian browse websitenya ada makeup tools juga seperti beauty sponges dll. And aku seneng banget bisa kolaborasi sama brand yang aku percaya dan sukak!

Kalo kalian ada pertanyaan seputar brush brush Lamica ini bisa langsung komen di bawah! I'll see you around xx

NOVEMBER FAVORITES

Hey!

This year definitely goes away really fast. I like December as much as I hate it. Of course I like December for its holiday and festive feels, but before all of that, I have to get through all the finals and also clean up my room to move away to other room. Well, this December will be my last December to do that, and again it somewhat gave me a huge burden and worry about what I'll do after my graduation. Aah.

Anyway, let's stop with all the blue stories. Let's jump on the favorites of last month!



From the makeup and beauty stuff, I got my favorite foundation from VDL Perfection Wear Foundation in V303, this is a recurring favorite because I stopped using this foundation for a while because I feel like it's too yellow for my skin tone. But I think my skin tone got a tad darker after the summer and the tone finally matches again. I think the Real Techniques Miracle Complexion Sponge also helps to even out the foundation shade to be less yellow too. And to base everything before, my favorite will be the Innisfree's Smart Makeup Blender in Long-lasting! Sorry the review is not up yet, but it definitely helps to control oils on my face through out the day and it's really affordable too!


First, is a perfume that I use daily is Etude House's "Fresh Me Up", it's smells like soap it's really like I'm fresh out from the shower everything I spray on this. For this winter survival, my Nivea Lip Butter in Vanilla & Macadamia & Nature Republic "White Musk" hand cream is a must! For the nails, I'm in love with Trou de Lapin "Better than Old Burgundy" nail polish that I got from "Brown Memebox", the dark brown with iridescent glitter is a unique color for me and it's really pretty especially for these season!


I've been dragging this bag everywhere really. I got this tote bag from a Singaporean online store bxtwxxn.com - This tote bag is really versatile and it fits a lot of stuff! Been loving this bag for like, ever. Also the thin straps turns out to be stronger than I expected. The leather is very soft too <3

That's it for today's post! I'm gonna kick my ass and do more reviews this week! Ugh, the real life stuff bene hanging my head lately and I just feel tired and not inspired at all. BUT I'll try to work my best to catch up! :)

REVIEW : IOPE Derma Professional Auto Cleanser

Hello! So, it's really been a while since I last posted something, right? GRAHHHH I know I hate myself too. Anyway, to update you guys, I'm back to Indonesia! And I've been busy seeing and meeting people that I've been apart for at least a year. Yes, I'M BACK BABY! 

It's really nice to be back in a country when everyone is so nice and actually speaks language that I understand 100%. I tried to update my dayre, but my internet connection have been very very unstable. And because I have to use my phone, and also while lying in my bed (my wi-fi didn't reach my bed! grr), my dayre post have been so slow lately. Somehow I miss South Korea if we're talking about wi-fi and internet connection. 

Ok, off to the main topic, the thing I'm reviewing today is IOPE Derma Professional Auto Cleanser! 


Ever since I started my youtube addiction, I've saw a lot of beauty-youtuber using a product called 'Clarisonic' to cleanse their face, and I saw the improvements were truly awesome! A lot of reasons why I didn't get myself one, like the price and the availability, I'm really stoked when I knew this IOPE auto cleanser existed! 


I purchased it from gmarket and the best deal I got was KRW 35.200 (plus shipping). There's a thing about IOPE products, the price varies depend on where it was sold. I found this in Aritaum and it retails for KRW 45.000. IOPE website also didn't put any official price, so I think Gmarket hold the nicest deal out of all! (I believe it's also available for worldwide shipping)


Inside there's the auto cleanser, the cleanser brush (1 pc), and AAA batteries (2 pc). Really easy to install, just pop that brush in and the auto cleanser is ready to work! 

Of course you have to insert the battery first!


The product claims that the size of the (micro) brushes are 1/5 the size of a pore, so it cleanse the face throughly and also it's self-antibacterial material also helps maintain the brush hygiene! The brush will spin 360degree and I just have to drag the auto-cleanser around my face in circling motion until I felt cleansed! 

Inside there's also a product information sheet containing some ways to use the auto-cleanser, so you don't have to worry about how to properly use the cleanser. It's really easy! (and clean!)


I don't personally own the Clarisonic so I can't give you a specific difference. However after a few google searches, I found some differences such as :

1. IOPE auto-cleanser only have one speed option (I think some Clarisonic have 2?)
2. IOPE auto-cleanser only come with one type of brush (..I wish they made more) 

And the other such as size (IOPE is smaller), and price (IOPE is cheaper). Also, this auto-cleanser is water proof (duh!). I've saw some youtubers also using these kinda Clarisonic dupe, and most have problem with their water proof-ing property that doesn't seem to go pretty well so the product broke. I really hope that this one will last me long!! 

I take this auto-cleanser with me to Indonesia, definitely travel-friendly and it's working very well! I don't use other specific foam-cleanser with this, I used my regular Hadalabo Foaming Cleanser and it's working wonderfully.


After a few days using this now, I'm pretty sure my skin is getting so much better!!! As I cleanse my face with the auto cleanser, it lightly scrubs off my dead skin cells. That way, the skin care routine I use got sinked in to my skin much better. Also it takes my makeup much efficient, my cotton pad+toner picked almost nothing - no makeup excess after I wash my face!

I really like how my skin felt after using this auto-cleanser, I just felt that my face is really clean and my makeup looks better ;p 

For the price and the great effect it brings, I think I bought a very good product, right?

PS | recently my auto-cleanser started to act weird, like it took some time for the product to run after I pressed the button. But as long as it still working, I don't have problem with that :")

REVIEW : Nature Republic - Magic Remover


Hello! Today I'll review a Nature Republic "Magic Remover". It's a makeup remover tissue that is very convenient for everyday. It retail for KRW 5.500, and it contain 60 sheets. If I use this everyday, it could last me approximately 2 months.


They have 2 types available, one is the that I'm holding here and the other one is a travel size that contain 15 sheets (KRW 1.800). Because Nature Republic is always on sale, i never bought these stuffs in their original prices.

On the packaging it states "This gentle cleansing tissue conveniently cleanses the skin with soft feeling" and the product also contain 100mg of Camomile Essence that serves as moisturizing element for the face.

the travel size

The packaging is convenient because it had a sturdy opening that allows you to store it properly. You know, because you're going to use this for quite some time. The thing that I notice with these kinda product is how the top sheets will be drier than the sheets on the bottom - that's why I store them upside down to let the product spread evenly!


The sheet itself is really nice, very soft and doesn't tear easily. For the product it was ok, like right in the middle. I didn't find them clean my makeup instantly (the Biore facial wipes did that for me) but they did a decent job either way.

I've repurchased this facial sheets for several times already. I like the way this wipes didn't left that oily feeling on my face and didn't felt sticky too afterwards. It also smelled fresh and felt really soft on the skin.

 From TOP to BOTTOM : 1. all the makeup stain 2. one (pretty hard) swipe 3. second swipe 4. after several swipes back and forth until all erased. 

After the first swipe

What I like to do with these sheets is after I apply my Banila Co. Clean It Zero (a sherbet cleanser) and massaged it all over my face, I take a sheet and wipe all the excess products and take all my makeup off. I just found that using a facial sheet (you can use a regular / baby wipes to wipe the Banila Co. Clean it Zero excess too!) makes it easier to erase some parts that I might missed when I apply the sherbet cleanser.

Overall, I like this product, only if I combine this with other product. Actually it did a decent job removing my makeup - it's just I don't really like the idea on swiping the sheet back and forth especially near my eyes. But this is definitely one of the cheapest and worked pretty good! I will keep to purchase this in the future! :)

REVIEW : Innisfree Eco Beauty Tool : Purifying Brush Shampoo


Heya! This time I'm going to review Innisfree Eco Beauty Tool : Purifying Brush Shampoo. Now I didn't even know what to put on the tags.. I don't really planned to review this product because I don't think people really brush their makeup brush with 'brush shampoo' anymore, there's thousands of alternative way to wash your makeup brushes even if you don't have these kinda product.

However once I washed my brush with the 'alternative' way, the brush just fell out of the place! I think it's also part of my faults, maybe I didn't wash it throughly, maybe the brush is just bad in quality, maybe I did store it well after washing, or maybe I didn't use a proper makeup brush cleanser! Yeah, it had been a small traumatizing experience there.

Anyway the Innisfree Purifying Brush Shampoo retail for KRW 10.000 and its 200ml. And in this line there are the brush shampoo (deep cleaning), daily brush shampoo (spray, for spot cleaning - KRW 5.000), and a magic puff cleanser (for sponges and puff - KRW 10.000)


There's nothing descriptive written on the packaging, only 'Purifying Brush Shampoo - with an anti-bacterial agent." 

Comes with an always convenient pump. It dispense a gel type liquid, but once you rub your damp brush in, it become more liquidy - water like, and it didn't foams up (unless you put too much) which is nice because you can clearly see it your brush is cleaned or not! 

The brush shampoo have a scent quite similar to dish washer? But of course I didn't mind at all. It makes my brush have that 'clean' scent which is nice!

So this is how I wash my brush (I use real technique contour brush!)

1. Make sure your brush is wet

2. Dispense a small amount of the product on the palm of your hand.

3. Swirl around your brush on your hand. If you think you need to clean your brush more, wash your hand and repeat the process until your happy with your brush! I did it twice fyi for bigger brush, once for smaller brush! And then rinse them off with running water.

4. Ta-Da! This is the dirty, dirty brush and the after washing. Looks new right? Smells clean too :D

Overall, I love this product! I was completely disappointed with The faceshop's brush cleanser, also gave me a small fear in purchasing Korean brand brush cleanse. So this product is surprisingly good and i think its on a medium price range so if you're looking for one you might want to check this one out! 

Another thing is I've use this to deep clean my whole makeup brushes collection and it only took a little bit of the product so i could say this brush shampoo could lasts for sometime. And on a side note, maybe because it's a gel-type product, I feel that my real technique brushes dries really really quick after I deep cleaned them with this. Another great point! 

Thankyou so much for reading!
