Wishlist: CC Cream!

I swear, I'm obsessed to CC Cream!

For everyone who doesn't know what CC Cream is, CC cream is a new generation of BB Cream. *I recommend you to Googling it for more information*

Since I subscribed ibuybeauty on youtube and follow up their make up tips, I got a new reference for a brand new stuff called CC Cream.

There are so many make up brand that produce CC cream these days, for example Bobbi Brown, Dior, Urban Decay and etc. But somehow, I prefer to pick Korean brand since It was born in Korea.

I picked Banila Co.


There are so many reviews said that this CC cream is amazing! It corrects all those skin imperfection and gives you a flawless skin like Jessica (the model). Unfortunately, it hasn't come to Indonesia yet. So, we have to buy it online and that's the biggest problem for me.

I still can't find any trustworthy online shop that sell this product.

Any recommendation?

You Are Everywhere

I almost forget that, everything is fair enough like Yin Yang's theory. 

If there's a happiness, there will be a sadness afterward.

Like what happened in my life today. Exactly, this morning, after I sent my Dad's costumer requested eggs...

I was on the way home with my Dad. Suddenly, I saw a very familiar face from Daddy's car window... A face that similar to him, the one that leaving a very deep scar in my heart...

The man that I've seen this morning really looks like him. Maybe, if there's no mole on his left eyebrows, I would say that it's really 'him'! I think, that man was on his rest after doing his morning exercise (he was riding a bicycle anyway).

Why does this world is too narrow? Why does this world have sooo many similar faces?

Remembering him is an hurtful activity.


Finally, Baby!

Signature Style



I still remember, for about 3 weeks ago (if I'm not mistaken), I attend my college's beauty class. One word for this: HORRIBLE.

As we know, 'BEING GOOD-LOOKING' is a MUST if we talk about hospitality. So that's why, my college gave us this session and wish that we will dress better. 

And because this is a beauty class, so we are focusing on fashion, style, and so on.


I've learned make up since very long time ago and it's so naturally that I've found my own style to applying make up on my face. Thus, when I joined and followed this class, I felt little bit uncomfortable with the lesson.

I don't know if it's true or not, but the BC (I make it short) Teacher said that depends on hospitality's standardization, our make up should be visible and it means that it should be BOLD.

Crap! For Givenchy's shake, I hate bold make up. I hated it when I had to apply the foundation for twice! Seriously! The first layer was applying foundie that, I think, 2-3 shades darker than our skin tone. Teacher said this was the concealing step so that we can hide our dark circles, blemish, acne scars, and etc. Second, we applied the foundie that match with our skin tone.

Moved to drawing the face--step, we started to redefined our eyebrows, applying eyeshadows, mascara, blush, and lipstick. And this was the step that I hated THE MOST. Everything should be bold, bold, and bold.

Teacher taught us how to draw the eyebrows with eyebrows pencil that I think, it was better to be an eyeliner pencil because it was damn bold. And then moved to the eyeshadows, the concept was natural but teacher taught us to applied it as bold as we can. 
Finally the last step: applying eyeliner--mascara--blush--and lipstick. The end.

Phew!

Something FYI, I didn't follow the teacher when I applied the eyeshadow, AT ALL. I made it by my self. Why? 

Because I didn't want to break my signature style.

My signature style is natural make up, like kpop make up. Thin layered foundie, straight grayish/brownish eyebrows, eyeliner, and natural colors. Less but more. And bold make up is not my style at all. 

Maybe, teachers, friends, and especially, lecturers might say that female hotelier is beautiful with those kind of make up, but I'm sorry, I don't agree. 

Everyone has their own signature style and standardization of dressing/looking good. I, my self, maybe I can compromise with that visible lipstick but the rest, I'm sorry, I can't.

I want to feel comfortable and happy with my own make up,
