Original Source shower gels mengklaim bahwa produknya terbuat dari 100% Natural Fragrance, vegan & botolnya terbuat dari bahan yang recyclable (bisa didaur ulang). Very environmental friendly pokoknyaah. Varian dari shower gelnya sendiri cukup banyak, saya sendiri waktu di Guardian nyoba endus-endus satu-satu, dan semua wanginya bener-bener jempolan!! 

Ini diaaa varian shower gel yang saya pilih : Vanilla & Strawberry. Menurut saya dari sekian banyak varian dari Original Source, yang ini wanginya yang paling juara, saya langsung kepelet dalam sekali endus! hahaha

Let me start this review by saying this :

Among all shower gels and soaps I've ever used, I swear this is a shower gel with THE BEST SCENT EVER.




Penasaran? Then keep reading :p

Original Source shower gel dikemas dalam botol plastik yang recyclable. Desain kemasannya keliatan ya kalo ini produk impor. Personally I love the design, simple dan ga neko2, tapi permainan susunan font di labelnya yang apik ditambah lagi warna shower gel nya yang warna-warni menurut saya keren dan udah lumayan bisa 'menangkap mata'.Setelah saya baca label belakangnya ternyata ini produk UK tapi udah didstribusikan ke Indonesia. Saya kira mahal lho, ternyata nggak, affordable banget! Sebotol isi 250ml ini kisaran hanya 30ribuan aja ;D

Tutupnya flip-cap dan letaknya ada di bawah bagian botol, jadi harus hati-hati kalau mau buka tutup botolnya. Kalo saya sih dibalik dulu botolnya ke atas baru dibuka botolnya biar aman, tapi kadang-kadang suka kelupaan balik botolnya jadi langsung dibuka dari bawah, eh cairan sabunnya jadi keluar deh.

Ngomongin soal sabunnya sendiri, teksturnya  agak cair (gak terlalu kentel), dan ga terlalu banyak busa walaupun sudah dibantu pake shower puff. Hmm karena saya suka mandi pake busa yang banyak jadinya agak boros. Ketika dibilas air dia agak licin-licin gitu, ga keset. Nah mungkin ini yang bikin kulit jadi soft banget abis mandi. Tapi sayang seribu sayang, wanginya yang semerbak banget pas dipake mandi tadi ternyata ga tahan lama, begitu dibilas wanginya udah ilang 80%, dan dengan hembusan angin wanginya pun hilang semuanya :'))) . Sayang banget ya, coba kalo wanginya lingers on skin a little longer, pasti bisa bikin orang2 disekitar kepelet :) "Kamu kok wanginya lezat sekali sih?" #apadeh

Pros :

* Wanginya enak banget banget banget

* Affordable 

* Variannya banyak
* Instantly makes your bath time a lot more fun
* Made of 100% natural fragrance
* safe for Vegans
* Botolnya okeee!
*Bikin kulit halus & ga kering


Cons: 
* Not widely available (sejauh ini baru nemu di Guardian)
* Ga semua varian available di Indonesia
* Wanginya kurang nempel

I truly love this shower gel a lottt!! Walaupun wanginya cepet ilang tapi cukup memberi kesenangan dan keceriaan saat mandi dengan wanginya yang aduhai banget, kulit juga jadi soft & ga kering abis mandi.

Biasanya saya paling seneng ganti-ganti sabun mandi, nah untuk beberapa waktu ke depan kayanya betah nih pake ini terus, pengen nyoba semua variannya! Akan lebih sip kalo varian yang masuk ke Indonesia lebih banyak lagi.. saya kepengen banget nyoba yang Chocolate & Mint. Haduhh jadi kebayang Baskin Robbins ;')

See ya on next review~

Hello! I'm back after procrastinating a lot during this banjir break-liburan banjir lol

Well, today I Just want to share my current complexion routine, including skincare and foundation. Well basically every step that takes me from ugly morning face to to yay-I'm-ready-to-change-the-world face. Some new items like make up base, foundation and blender sponge are now the part of my daily makeup routine. Back then my life was a lot simpler before I gained so much interest in beauty like I do now, I relied only on my fingers and BB Cream and then I'm ready to go, but everything is getting complex now hahaha Now it takes about 15-20 minutes everyday for me to do my face only *sigh what a slowpoke*. Since basically everything has changed, I thought of writing this post.

Well, I will mostly talk about the products I use and how to apply them plus some tips if you want to know more about foundation application, so here we go..

My day always (I'm sure yours too) starts with a freshly cleansed face. Is there any of you who dont wash your face in the morning? o_o My favorite face wash is from Hada Labo, but lately I've been switching to another cleansers. The cleanser I'm using now is Himalaya Herbal Neem Purifying Facial Wash. I love gentle cleansers that don't dry out skin like Hada Labo & Himalaya, but Himalaya makes my skin so supple and soft to touch so it also became my favorite now. I'm hooked <3

Moving to skincare, I cannot step further into make up if I don't apply my skincare because it is very important. Skincare moisturizes and takes care of skin, also acts as a barrier so your make up won't directly 'touch' your skin. And lastly, skincare helps to moisten your skin, making it suppler so it's easier to apply make up if your skin is well-prepared. It's so much easier to apply make up when your skin is nicely moisturized, trust me!

Every skin type needs proper skincare. If you're oily doesn't mean that you don't need moisturizers because you think your skin is 'soaked' enough. It's wrong! It was my mistake back then. Oily skin also needs to be moisurized, because if you dont your skin will still be oily but it drains inside, resulting in coarse and dull skin.

I've been using HADA LABO for a year, because it works well on me, doesn't cause any pimple or breakouts, moisturize my skin well and I don't plan to switch to another skincare in near time. You can check my review that I made in the past here and here

Make up base is something I have been using recently, didnt pay much attention before on how important a makeup base is.The makeup base I'm using is from Shu Uemura, it's a gift from my blogging friend (thank you! ^_^). I love it because the texture is mousse-like, so cute lol and it smells like vanilla cupcake #makanmulu. It helps to reduce my redness thus the skin looks more even, and it also makes my skin surface smoother so my foundation will look much better. More importantly, it has 30 SPF that would be great for daytime, because my faoundation only has SPF 6 in it. But usually I would skip this and just go straight to my foundation after my skincare if I go out at night.

After years relying on BB Cream I finally bring myself to try foundation lol I always thought foundation, especially liquid foundation, would feel very heavy and would definitely melt on my super oily skin, so back then I did not dare to try one. But after trying this Revlon Colorstay Foundation, all my pre-judgement changed lol

It feels very light, which quite amazed me as a first-time foundation user. The coverage is just right, the oil control is quite impressive and more importantly the shade matches my skintone perfectly, unlike BB Creams that usually will make my face looks different from my neck :/  I recommend this to any of you who has super oily skin with acne scars here and there like mine
I suggest to use sponge or brush instead of fingers for foundation application. Because foundation formula is different than BB Cream or tinted moisturizer which is usually more watery and thinner, compared to foundation . I've tried using fingers but the result doesn't look as nice as when I use sponge.  Since I cannot afford The Original Beauty Blender (lol) I use the cheaper alternative,  Masami Shouko blender sponge. It became my favorite tool to apply BB Cream or foundation now,  because it thins out the foundation so it creates more natural result. I swear when my Revlon foundation combined with blender sponge, it creates very flawless, non-streaky and beautiful result. In short,  I LOVE THEM VERY MUCH

Wow what a long way to go, isn't it? All these steps take approximately 15-20 minutes. But when I'm in a hurry usually I would skip everything and just go with BB Cream only LOL.




So I present you my bare face that brings calamity to the world VS my face that is slightly covered with layers of products lol






As you can see, my dark circles are quite severe, and I have so manyyyy acne scars like moon surface. After foundation etc they are still visible but at least they look less annoying lol Really, looking at them makes my heart ache thinking of how my future husband would react if he sees my face in the morning -_-




And for comparison, here is what it looks like with super full make up







Skin looks smooth eh? Dont trust it. blame the blogger, I dont know why the image I upload looks blurry compared to the original image I have in my PC, even though i have resized it to bigger resolution.*What youre seeing now are the mega big A4 sized, unedited pictures.If it still looks blurry then I give up lol

UPDATE : Issues fixed. Blogger uploader is just crap. I use Flickr to make the photos sharp again. So hello pores! ^_^


Well, that's all for today I hope it's understandable enough and would do any good to any of you, see you soon~






Cheers,
