[REVIEW] Canmake - Cream Cheek - Clear CL01

Hi all! First, I would like to say "HAPPY EID MUBARAK" for all of you who are Moslems. I apologize for being quite for awhile. I just have a lot of things happen. I was moving out from my previous apartment. Actually, I am still in the same apartment complex but move to different tower. To be honest with you all, my room is still such a mess and I need to really tidy up everything, especially my vanity. At least, I am successfully wash my brushes. I am always just feels too tired after work and on weekend. I also need to start work out, seems like I am lacking of stamina lately.

Okay, so apparently Canmake has came to our beloved country Indonesia. Surely, I don't have to think what to pick to try. I bought the cult favourite, The cream cheek in shade CL01 which is the clear red one. Actually, it has been months since I bought it, but it takes me weeks after I decided to open and try it out. Then, until now, this becomes my most used cream blush, even beats my beloved Shu Uemura 6❤Princess in Heroine Rose.

SEPHORA INDONESIA OPENING @ PLAZA INDONESIA

Hello folks!!!! Long time no see! Well, work is crazy and I don't have much time and energy to think what to write and moreover to write. But now here I am, want to share something. SEPHORA IS NOW AVAILABLE IN INDONESIA!

I went there early in the morning despite of the fact that my fever just gone which turns out to be a good decision since the traffic is so terrible and so do the weather. There is the downside though, I FORGOT TO BRING MY DEBIT CARD! I was only able to buy two products with a few cash I had in my wallet.

Below are a few pictures I took & what I get there. I only take a few because... I had a lot on my hand and I now took pictures with my new mini iPad since my blackberry was broken. :'(


The Line : It was crowded, even before the Mall opening time! I sneaked in as well to get to this line. The cause is 100 first people who come there and already share the coundown clock on social media can get the free gift.

So what I come home with from there are:



The ones I bought was Benefit They're Real Mascara (mini size) and Sephora Lip Liner.

Another thing I bring home is FLU! Yes! FLU! How cool is that?! OTL

What I think about the first Sephora store in Indonesia:
- Almost of all the brand already has their own store or at least booth in Indonesia, especially Make Ups, the only ones new are Too Faced and Sephora itself. I don't see much for Skin Care as well. I don't really take notice for the nails and baths though. Even for Too Faced (and other brands as well) there are lots of products mentioned (with price tag as well) but not available yet. I was looking for TFSI and can't find one (There is the glitter base one though)
- The brand that they have (as long as I remember) : Sephora (of course), Anna Sui, Too Faced, Guerlain, Lancome, Borjuis, Shiseido, Laneige, Benefit, Murad, Sampar, Glam Glow, Clarins, and I don't remember much anymore, but I am really sure they are easily found in other places in Jakarta.
- I hope the one that will be opened in Kota Kasablanka will carry more brands considering the store in Plaza Indonesia was really small. I hope I can find Kat Von D! I want her palette!

[UNBOXING] LOLABOX Birthday Box April 2014

A bad day since I woke up this morning because of headache all the day + pile of works because of deadlines and appointments to be set up. A little spark that brightens up my day is this box I subscribe which delivered to my office this afternoon.

This is the second time I subscribed LOLABOX. My first time was the February box which turns out dissapointing. I intended to do a blog post but simply didn't have time. I didn't subscribe March box which I regret a lot because of the reviews I have seen that the box contains good stuffs.

This months is a special edition box to celebrate their birthday. It costs cheaper than usual which is 111.000 IDR. The normal subscription cost is 145.000 IDR. So, let's get into the pictures and what I think about them.

THE BOX & THE UNBOXING:

I was drawn to this limited edition release because of the commercials. Okay I admit it! I am a big fan of VOCALOID and kz (livetune) is one of producers that I am fond to. So yeah, and combined with the visual by Takashi Murakami. HOW CAN I MISS THIS RELEASE? NO WAY!
