Bourjois Delice de Poudre Chocolate Powder

I have this bronzing powder for a while now and never brought it up on my blog, which is ashamed, because this bronzer is worth to talk about. I believe if I want something expensive, I don't want people saying there is a similar one, I mean dupe. I heard Bourjois Bronzer is compatible to Too Faced Chocolate De Soleil Bronzer, it also has a chocolate-y smell. So, I decided to buy Bourjois instead of Too Faced, I mean I can save money and I love affordable products.

The packaging is very nice, it's like a chocolate bar, and it has a chocolate smell, which excites me everytime I open it. The bronzer is very warm chocolate brown and perfect to warm up your face. It is not too dark and I think it suits light to medium skin, on dark skin it probably not appear well on the skin. It is pigmented and blends very easily to the skin. Some said this is good for contouring, but I don't think it is a right product to use for contouring, but I don' t know, I might be wrong, but for me, it didn't work as a contour. I forgot how much it costs for this bronzing powder, but I bought it on Bourjois counter in Kemang Village Jakarta.

My Mini Haul

So, I went to Singapore last week with my dad and my sister. We were there only for 3 days. And I bought some bits and bobs, I went to Sephora, Lush, Body Shop and MAC.

At Sephora I only picked up two things, which is Eyeko Eye Do Liquid Eyeliner in Black and Sephora Color Lip Last in Meet My Pink (bought for my sister's friend so I can't swatch nor open it for you to give you an idea of color). Then, I went to MAC Cosmetics and bought 2 lipsticks in Rebel and Ruby Woo.

Okay, you might think I'm so late to get these babies, but better late than not trying at all right? I've been into dark or intense lippies, so I got those and I'm in love. Now I know these are holy grail lipsticks to most of beauty addicts.

Lush!! I got really excited when I found the store (forgot which mall), this is my first purchase on Lush, I didnt go crazy and bought lots things there, because I was scared if I love it, how can I get my hands on those things ever again in Indonesia or Jakarta. I bought bath bomb in Sex Bomb, I heard the hype and yes it smells sexy. I also bought 2 bubble bars in Sunny Side and Brightside, and also bought face mask in Mask of Magnaminty. 

In Body Shop I only bought Tea Tree Toner, because I heard tea tree is very good to calm down the acnes, so I want give this one a go.

I think thats all (maybe), I had fun there I went to universal and will go back again in August, and do the shopping thing again, because women never get enough of shopping.

Sleek Makeup in Vintage Romance

I have this palette for awhile, and never had time to review this. Most of my palettes come from Sleek Makeup. If you're not familiar with this brand, is from UK and the products are very affordable, it's really good for people who are on budget but wanting to buy makeup. I bought this palette because of the name which is "VINTAGE ROMANCE". I love anything claims vintage (weird, huh?) and yes I love this so much, it can create any look I want to wear from day to night. It's easy to travel with too, which is very convenient for travellers. I bought it in Luxola and forgot the price but it's not expensive like I said before.

As you can see, the first row has most natural colors, and the second row has most dark colors.

Pretty in Paris is a light silver with metallic finish, it's perfect to put on inner corner of the eyes.

Meet in Madrid is a light metallic gold.

Court in Cannes is a shimmery bronze-y golden brown.

Lust in LA is frosted olive taupe and has bronze color to it.

Romance in Rome is a mixture of blue and purple.

Propose in Prague is a matte orange toned brown, more of like a brick red

A Vow in Venice is a frost plum with a bit of berry

Marry in Monte Carlo is pinkish berry, very shimmery.

Honeymoon in Hollywood is a matte winey plum with flecks of glitters. 

Bliss in Barcelona is a purple with satin finish.

Forever in Florence is a dark burgundy with flecks of glitters.

Love in London is a black with satin finish, it has a bit of shimmer but you can't tell when swatched.

From Left to Right: Pretty in Paris, Meet in Madrid, Court in Cannes, Lust in LA,
Romance in Rome, Propose in Prague, A Vow in Venice, Marry in Monte Carlo,
Honeymoon in Hollywood, Bliss in Barcelona, Forever in Florence, Love in London.

Hope this is helpful :)

Revlon Nailpolish

I've been into doing my nails lately, I wanted to buy several colors to put in my collection, but I didn't want to spend my money for expensive nail polishes. I decided to go to Revlon's counter and bought some colors that I thought were pretty and might suit my skin.

They are all creamy and pigmented, you can get the color after 2 coat but it's not bad at all, and it lasts long. I love them but my favourite probably are midnight (which is dark blue, somehow reminded me of blue denim) and sequin (which is silver color and this color is very pretty and amazing). I forgot the price of these but I bought them when they were on sale.

Hope this would help, thanks for reading :)

The Balm Mary-Lou Manizer

I was looking for a good highlighter for my skin so I did an observation on youtube and blogs. I saw people raved about Mary-Lou Manizer from TheBalm, and it's like it's everyone's favourite so I decided to buy one. I bought mine from online shop, I know now TheBalm has opened its stores in Indonesia so you can buy TheBalm products near your local store. 

First time I got it, I was pretty amazed with the packaging, very cute and sturdy, it's plastic so you don't have to worry to throw it on your purse. The product itself is smooth and soft like butter and the good thing is highly pigmented so you have to tap the tiniest amount of this product onto your cheek to get a nice subtle glow. Mary-Lou is a shimmering champagne with gold tones, very subtle and this doesn't have chunky glitter, it won't make you look like a discoballs. This highlighter suits all different skin tones so I would recommend this to anyone who haven't tried this, you'll love it.

Aquolina Pink Sugar Review :)

Being a girl, having only one perfume I think it is not enough, right? I'm not that kind of girl that has a signature smell, because I like trying new perfume and collecting them. I know, I know it's bad because people wouldn't notice your smell everytime you're around them, but I don't mind. I've been loving musky scent or light men scent (I don't know how to describe men's perfume scent). But this time, I don't buy anything musky, I bought Aquiline Pink Sugar. YASS!!! You can tell by its name, it has sugar in it which is like sweet scent. I went to perfume counter with my sister, because she's looking for her 1D's perfume. Then, I saw this, I picked it up and show my sister that people on YouTube raved about it so much, and every single video I've watched, they always-always have it on their collection. So, I sprayed it on a piece of paper, I didn't like it at all, but my sister loved it. She pushed me to buy it, and told me to share with her. You know, I couldn't do anything if it's my sister who begged me to. I forgot how much it costed, but it's not like really expensive. 

The packaging itself is really cute, it's light pink and you could see the liquid there, and it's really heavy. This perfume is an eau de toilette which does not last long on the skin. But, this lasts longer than I thought it would be, I had it in the morning and I still could smell it in the evening. It smells like candy, very sweet and romantic, it's like creamy vanilla candy, the vanilla gives you warm smell, which I like so much about it. I had it once to my university and some of my guy friends told me that they liked it on me, so I guess it's a really good compliment and a proof from guys. The website said it included notes: Bergamot, Sicilian Orange, Raspberry, Fig Leaves, Lily of the Valley, Licorice, Strawberry, Red Fruit, Cotton Candy, Vanilla, Caramel, Musk, Wood, Powder. I don't really use this that much because like I said I love musky or men's scent more, but when I'm on the mood of being sweet and romantic, I always pick it up from my drawer. If you are a total sweet-loving-romantic scent kind of girl, you will love this one.

Common Grounds Jakarta

Coffee is probably one of my weaknesses, my life is always missing something if I don't drink a cup of coffee. Yes, I exaggerate it but it's true and sometimes I consider myself as a coffee-maniac not only just a lover. When I have time to relax, I always go to Starbucks Coffee near me. It helps decreasing my stress level, but this time I didn't go to starbucks or coffee bean. I went to Common Grounds in Citywalk, Sudirman. Okay, I've heard some people I follow on instagram raved so much about this place so I checked it out at first and after seeing all the pictures I decided to go with my sister (she said she will accompany me to national library as long as she got treated by me). I didn't take the pics of its place. Well, the place is pretty cozy for chatting or reading alone. I really like how they put everything so simple yet comfortable. My sister and I ordered the same menu which is butter waffles with banana and caramel as topping. I also ordered cappuccino and my sister ordered espresso. When the food arrived, I was pretty amazed how the waffles was served so beautifully and looked delicious. And yes people, it's delicious, the caramel was not too sweet which I like the most,,, and bananas with strawberries!!! Man, you should try that!  Oh uh the cappuccino is the best y'all. i freaking lurvvvv it (haha this is pretty much showing how much I love it). Well, I didn't taste my sis' drink but she liked it. What I like the most, one of the baristas came to us and asked us about the coffees they served, I mean they really care about the consumers.

Okay, enough complimenting this coffee roaster, all I want to say is that I want to come back and order more of their coffee choices and also their brunches.
