You know the packaging is represent the brand claim. It's dominated by green color. The design is simple but they keep it as the product needed. I mean they choose the black color bottle with pump, black will protect the product from direct sunlight. 

I wanna talk about foaming facial cleanser first. I know that cleanser is really important but sometimes I don't really make cleanser as my priority, I mean I'll choose to buy expensive serum than expensive cleanser. The reason I bought this because I need a gentle cleanser for morning cleanser so I think the claims just give what I need, suitable for all skin types, Sulphate and Paraben free. I don't really like foamy cleanser, my skin is bit sensitive with foaming cleanser, that's why I stopped to buy a rambling cleanser in mini market, like I did in the past. Sulphate which usually  be known as SLS (Sodium lauryl sulfate) and SLES (Sodium laureth sulfate) have function as surfactants: water and oil soluble compounds that, when combined with water, foam and emulsify greasy substances. The less sulphate they have the gentler approach for skin. About parabens, I think that it still needs in skin care product because it will stop fungus, bacteria and other microbes from growing in your creams and makeup, especially in the moist, warm environment of a bathroom. However it's debatable as cancer causer. You can recognize as methylparaben, ethylparaben, propylparaben, butylparaben and isobutylparaben. So, I feel that the cleanser will be so gentle without paraben too.

It also contains with chamomile, aloe vera, witch hazel, green tea with macadamia and evening primrose oil to purify and balance skin. Chamomile is antibacterial, anti-fungal, anti-inflammatory and antiseptic. It is also considered to be hypoallergenic with the ability to neutralize skin irritants. I always think that product that contains aloe vera will give calming sensation. Aloe vera also has benefit to soothe skin. Witch hazel is used to as antioxidant and astringent properties are perfect for killing bacteria that lives within skin’s pores, stopping cellular damage that can lead to skin cancer, preventing signs of aging, and speeding up healing. Then, another ingredients that SUKIN highlight is green tea. You don't need to doubt about green tea benefit for skin. Evening primrose oil also has many benefits for skin, it can treat hormonal acne and can help with age-related structural and functional changes in skin tissues, such as redness, firmness, roughness, and fatigue resistance. 

Ingredients

It still contains alcohol but I feel it's still fine because this foaming cleanser is very gentle, even they named foaming but it isn't so foamy.

Beside of harmful ingredients list which aren't include in this product, they also said it's 100% vegan and 100% carbon neutral and of course no animal testing. That's why I keep to purchase SUKIN product even to be honest I didn't see the instant result from them. But, I believe in process for treating skin. 

Even though, the pump bottle isn't travel friendly but I like the pump packaging in face cleanser product. It makes easier to amount the size of product.

The texture is liquid transparent. It smells citrus and charcoal, I know seems silly because they said no carbon but I smell bit carbon in it, maybe it smells chamomile but I don't know how chamomile smelled. I'm not a fan of the smell, but that's okay, it wasn't too strong. It takes more than usual to wash all of my face. Maybe because it isn't foamy at all so I feel I need a lot for cleansing my face.

You can barely see nothing when I used in damp skin, which I think this is good because I don't like foamy cleanser. I prefer use this cleanser as morning cleanser because I think it wasn't that good for removing makeup even though I always do double cleansing. However, this is the most moisturizing cleanser that I've ever tried. My skin feels so moisturize after that and no tight effect at all. I think the natural ingredients likes chamomile, green tea, primrose oil took a great job for moisturizing skin. I can say this cleanser does a great job for all skin types, your sensitive skin will love it because it's very gentle, it's also perfect for dry skin because it gives moisturizing effect and my oily skin loves it too. I'm a fan of deep pores cleanser but sometimes I feel that kind of cleanser is too harsh for my skin so when I was using this cleanser I change my mind to use more gentle skin cleanser. It feels so calming and gentle for my skin.

Pros

- sulphate and paraben free

- natural ingredients

- it feels so gentle and moisturizing

- I like the pump packaging

Cons

- quite pricey for me as cleanser maybe because the tax thing, but it's still affordable. Maybe if my friend go to Aussie, I will stock up *LOL

- I don't like the smell

- it takes some for getting used to, I finished one bottle which is 125 ml so fast

Next is Sukin Super Greens Detoxifying Facial Scrub, I bought it before the cleanser. My skin feels bit sensitive for couple months and I need gentler scrub. Because oily skin can't live without scrub. I read some of reviews saying that this scrub is very gentle so I decided to buy it.

As same as the foaming cleanser sulphate and paraben free. The key of ingredients are kale, spirulina and parsley. It seems so natural, right? because you can eat them too. It promises giving glowing skin with gentle exfoliator which are jojoba beads and bamboo.

That's why I love SUKIN.

Ingredients

I can recognize the ingredients very well in daily basic. They use spirulina, chlorella and parsley as detoxifying and antioxidants. Then, sukin also include pineapple, licorice and lime peel which gives clear and radiant effect. They also said that it smells cranberry, Believe me, it smells really good, kind of fruity fresh smell. The smell is different from the foaming cleanser.

The packaging is flat tube, I'm not fan of tube packaging but that's okay, I still can manage how much I must used to it. The design is represent the natural claim, green with black cap.

I still felt the beads when I touched the texture, but the beads are very gentle in my skin. If you're searching for gentle scrub this is perfect. The scrub isn't too harsh but it still gives exfoliation effect in skin. My skin feels smoother afterwards. If you wanna remove the stubborn blackhead or whitehead, this wouldn't be enough for removing them. However, if you just need to exfoliate dead skin cell or clean your pores for daily routine, this scrub is a perfect choice. Sometimes, I use this scrub almost every day, once in a day and my skin is fine, because it's very gently. I can say if you have sensitive skin and searching for gentle product, SUKIN is one of you should try.

Maybe you can't barely see that my skin is brighter afterwards, but I think it does giving the radiant effect, you can see in my picture as well. I love the scrub more then the foaming facial cleanser. The scrub also didn't dry or tight my skin. My skin still feel moisturizing afterwards.

pros

- the scrub is very gentle

- it smells so good

- I can use this scrub everyday without harming or hurting my skin

cons

- it wasn't remove stubborn whitehead or blackhead, but I didn't expect that too so I say nope for cons XD

Have you tried products from SUKIN? please tell me, do you like them or not, I tried hydrating toner too, but I'll give the review separately ;)

Kalian biasa juga cari juga di apotek.

Buat lebih detailnya, kenapa aku bisa suka banget dengan masing-masing produk di bulan Agustus, kalian bisa lihat videonya ya :)

Oh iya kalau kalian ingin review dari salah satu dari list produk yang aku sebutkan tadi, kalian bisa komen ya, I'll make it as priority :)

I'm in love with the color of packaging, I don't really like pink but soft pink! kill me for this color *so girly ya hahaha. For the bottle is just a basic liquid skin care product. It comes with 200 ml size and I think it will last around 6 months. I'm regularly using it for day and night as a hydrating toner.

Even this bottle only comes with a hole, but I think it takes enough control of  drops that you need it. It made by plastic material so you don't need to worry for bringing it anywhere. The problem is only the size is too big for traveling. I rarely bring it for traveling but sometimes I brought that because my face was freaking dry while I must go out for many days. Anyway, I think this bottle is enough slim so you can put in between your clothes. 

I forgot to mention that Nuxe is France brand. This product is for dry and sensitive skin, Thanks God I didn't mention it before so I decided to bring it home, my skin is oily combination. However, I can say it's good for any skin types. This gentle toning lotion with Rose Petals soothes, refreshes and puts the finishing touch to make-up removal. The lotion doesn't contain alcohol, and doesn't dry skin. The reason I bought this because they give an Alcohol free claim. I used toner which contains from Alcohol before Nuxe and I felt guilty about it even alcohol didn't make my skin breakout.

It's call toning lotion, in my mind lotion is thicker than water. However, the texture is water it seems like tea drops. The most mentioned about this toner is the smell is so good. They were true, I'm not kidding, it smells kind of mix between rose and tea. I'm not rose fragrance into, I'm not a fan of  rose smell at all but it's divine. The smells is light but it's freaking good, calming, and kind of refreshing my mind in pm routine. I like to smell it over and over again while I'm applying it into my skin. The sensation is cooling and refreshing, I felt like any harsh things that I put in my face just gone *LOL. I like using this toner after cleansing. My face also feel moisturize if I felt my face is bit dry because the cleanser. This toner is also so damn good if your face feels dry in Air Conditioner (AC) room. I know the reason why this toner is perfect for dry skin. But, I have oil combination skin but I don't regret bought this toner. I also used this after peeling or acid toner and I didn't feel tingling, itchy or any bad reaction. For long term uses, I didn't notice any change in my skin but I thought this is good for complete my skin care routine. When I was too tired I just cleansing my face, using this toner and first essence then I go to sleep *LOL. For oily combination problems, of course It didn't took any effect, likes minimizing pores or diminishing my oil production but the claim wasn't for it, right? It also took residue on my face after cleansing, it wasn't that great for that but I mentioned it took some dirt things that left on my face. Now, I'm confusing should I repurchase this or not? Because so many skin care brands wishlist that I love to try *LOL

Pros

- in love with soft pink packaging

- the smell is divine, mix of light rose and tea

- I got gentle feeling for skin, fresh, cooling, calming and moisturizing effect

Cons

- it contains a big size so it isn't travel friendly. I think I will need it if I'm on the plane and my face is dry. So, Nuxe please makes the small size one hehehe.

If you have dry skin, believe me you will love this toning lotion, I don't have any idea about sensitive skin because sensitive skin is quite tricky for choosing skincare product. If you have oily skin, you will like it too but it won't give any solution for your oily skin problem, but I say it's great for completing your skincare routine. 

Even it's France brand, you can buy it online at sociolla.com. I also have discount code for anyone who spend IDR 250000, enter SBNLACP0 so you can get IDR 50000 off. My wishlist is Nuxe Rêve de Miel Lip Balm, but for lip balm is too pricey for me huhuhu. 

Kalau dari segi packaging aku suka sih, base color nya putih, it reminds me of EM Cosmetics nya Michelle Phan, setuju ga sih?. Just clean and simple, tetapi bagi aku yang agak jorok, biasanya suka numpuk-numpuk sama makeup lain di tempat makeup jadinya buluk, hehe. But I still love white color of makeup packaging.

Ketika aku membuka goodies dari zoya, I screamed "OMG, liquid lipstick" because I'm a big fan of liquid lipstick so I was excited. Packagingnya memang agak sedikit gendut untuk ukuran liquid lipstick but never mind! I like it :) Tertulis Lacquer lipstick velvet matte Lip Paint with Shea butter and free paraben. Shea butter ini adalah kandungan yang bagus untuk pelembab.

Seperti kebanyakan liquid lipstick, Zoya Lip Paint ini juga terdapat doe foot applicator nya. Applicator nya cukup pas menurutku tidak terlalu besar, awalnya aku takut kebesaran karena packagingnya agak gendut.

Ingredients

Isododecane, Talc, Microcrystalline Wax, Cyclopentasiloxane, Kaolin, Trimethylsiloxysilicate, Diisostearyl Malate, Polyglyceryl-2 Triisostearate, Disteardimanium Hectorite, Polybutene, Polyglyceryl-2 Diisostearate, Pentaerythrityl Tetraisostearate, Propylene Carbonate, Butyrospermum Parkii (Shea) Butter, Fragrance, Sodium Dehydroacetate, Argaria Spinosa Kornel Oil, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Seed oil.

the swatches ( ultimate eyeliner dan lip paint)

Warna hitam eyelinernya cukup kereng, hitam, kalau warna lipsticknya pink muda, barbie pink but not too barbie, maksudku pinknya tidak pucat atau terlalu muda masih wearable untuk sehari-hari. O ya aku dapat shade pink powder.

To be honest formulasinya agak susah untuk dibaurkan dan finishingnya sedikit patchy atau tidak rata. Hasilnya powdery matte. Triknya adalah pakai applicator nya pelan-pelan dan tipis saja setelah itu didap dengan bibir bagian atas dan bawah *you know what I mean. Sebenarnya lip paint ini tidak membuat bibir kering di aku cuma kalau kondisi bibir aku sedang tidak halus pasti bakal retak-retak so jangan lupa memakai pelembab dulu ya. Wanginya vanilla, so yummy :) Daya tahannya tidak begitu lama karena gampang retak, kalau untuk makan tentunya harus apply ulang supaya lipsticknya kembali oke, hehe. Lip paint ini cukup mudah dihapusnya tidak seperti liquid lipstick yang kadang suka susah dihapusnya.

FYI, kalau tidak salah ada delapan shade dari Zoya lip paint ini yang bisa kalian pilih :)

Pros

- Design packagingnya simple dan ada doe foot applicator

- wanginya vanilla

- shade pink powder cocok untuk sehari-hari, banyak pilihan warna

- mudah dihapus

Cons

- pengaplikasiannya agak sedikit tricky

- hasilnya patchy, apalagi kalau bibir sedang kering

- daya tahannya tidak begitu lama karena gampang retak

Yang pertama mau aku bahas adalah shampo, karena tidak mungkin kan keramas ga pakai shampo, hehehe. Shampo favorit aku beberapa bulan belakangan ini adalah Pantene Aqua Pure. Kalau kalian pernah melihat video-video aku, aku sering menyebut kalau all time favorite shampoo ku adalah Pantene anti dandruff. Tetapi waktu aku belanja aku sempat melihat yang aqua pure ini dan aku tertarik beli karena ada tulisan No Silicone. Selain no silicone, shampo ini juga no paraben dan pewarna. Yang aku suka dari shampo ini adalah lightweight, di rambut itu terasa lebih ringan dan soft dibanding shampo pantene yang lain. Kalau semisal di kulit kepala aku ada sedikit luka dia tidak membuat perih yang agak menusuk-nusuk gitu, hahaha.

I can't live without conditioner, as I said before rambut aku super kusut, jadi kalau setelah keramas tidak pakai konditioner bisa ditebak lah rambut aku kusut banget . Aku pun banyak mencoba berbagai merk kondisioner dan beberapa merk yang aku pakai, efeknya kurang nampol, rambutku tetap kasar. Salah satu konditoner favorit aku adalah L'oreal kebetulan yang saat ini aku coba adalah yang Fall Resist 3X, ini kebetulan yang khusus anti hair fall. But to be honest, sebenarnya yang aku rasakan dari semua rangkaian konditioner dari L'oreal hampir sama kok, menghaluskan rambut tetapi untuk mengurangi rambut rontok efeknya tidak begitu kelihatan. Menurutku ya fungsi konditioner adalah menghaluskan rambut bukan mengurangi rambut rontok. Karena shampoo yang aku pakai lumayan less perfume jadi aku suka wangi dari konditioner ini. Wanginya floral tetapi agak ada manis fruity nya gitu.

Nah, ini yang part untuk rambut rontok, yaitu hair tonic. Sebenarnya aku sudah lama melupakan memakai hair tonic, cuma karena sekarang rambut aku sudah mulai panjang jadi rontok parah. Aku kembali rutin memakai hair tonic. Kalau kalian bertanya produk apa yang cocok  untuk mengurangi rambut rontok? Sebaiknya kalian coba hair tonic atau hair serum. Hair tonic yang sedang aku pakai sekarang dari Kaminomoto, kalau mau baca reviewnya di sini. Aku biasanya pakai setelah keramas dengan menggunakan kapas ke seluruh kulit kepala. Kalau ada kulit kepala yang sedang luka jangan dipakai di bagian luka itu ya karena bisa perih.

Akhir-akhir ini aku lagi suka dengan yang namanya oil, entah face oil, body oil ataupun hair oil. Hair oil favorite aku lagi-lagi dari L'oreal yaitu L'oreal Extraordinary oil. Yang aku suka dari hair oil ini adalah bisa dipakai saat rambut kering maupun basah dan tanpa dibilas. Selain itu meskipun aku pakai sebanyak apapun rambut aku tidak cepat lepek meskipun ini oil. Karena ada merk hair oil, jika aku pakai banyak-banyak biasanya rambut aku jadi cepat lepek. Padahal aku suka banget pakai hair oil banyak-banyak ketika menyisir rambut untuk membantu biar rambut tidak kusut. Beneran deh rambut aku kusut parah jadi kalau malam hari aku suka banget pakai ini sambil menyisir rambut, nyisirnya pakai jari tentunya :P. Kalau kalian ingin tahu review lengkapnya di sini.

Nah, begitulah kira-kira hair routine aku. Kalau frekuensi pakainya aku keramas kira-kira 3-4 kali seminggu dan shampo, konditioner dan hair tonic dipakai saat dan setelah keramas. Kalau hair oil hampir setiap hari. 

Bagaimana dengan perawatan rambut kalian?

At first, I definitely love this packaging, I like the black and white concept on this packaging just so sturdy and simple. I purchased kind a pot eye cream before it and I thought that was unhygienic when I should take the cream with my hand. But, this packaging comes with bottle and also it has a pump. I think this packaging is more hygienic, right? :D

This is the pump looks a like :) Because I just need a little amount of it, so the pump helps me a lot to control how much product that should I pull out.

Novexpert – Expert Anti-Ageing Eye Contour. Ultra-high performance active ingredients to illuminate the eyes: chlorella (anti-dark-circle), green tea (decongesting) and plant pulp (lifting). A concentration of exceptionally high-performance anti-aging ingredients that target DNA and collagen for in-depth skin regeneration. Hypoallergenic. Dermatologically-tested

The claim is so tempting for wrinkles, right? Hyaluronic Acid, Collagen Booster and Tensor Complex, with no preservatives, Paraben, Phenoxyethanol, and Silicon.

I usually apply this in tiny amount around my eyes area with a simple massage :)

I don't think that is 100% natural origin, because there is Butylene glycol. Maybe the percentage that use in this product isn't harmful for skin, but I don't think that is natural origin, Butylene glycol is derived from petroleum. 

The texture is liquid and light. I didn't feel it's sticky at all. That's also easy to absorb. It smells like coconut. I'm not fan of it but that's fine because the smell isn't really strong.

That was my under eyes condition before I used Novexpert Lifting Eye Contour :) You can see some lines there.

I also have hollow eyes and you can see the wrinkles more visible here :(
