Earthly Creations Detoxifying Clay Mask Review

Hi ! I haven't update this blog for a looongggg time. Okay, I'm sorry 😂 but today I want to review one of my favourite clay mask from @earthly.id . They give me one, and I fell in love with this mask.

Maybe some of you already know that I looovee natural handmade skincare, especially for clay mask. I have serious skin allergies. So I think it's better for me to choose the natural handmade mask for my face, plus, this habbits help the local business, right? ;)

So, yea, this as you can see from the photo, I choose the Detoxifying one. This mask is a clay mask, you have to wait until it feels hard on your face (10 until 20 minutes) and you can wash it off.

So I wear this mask a little bit thicker, well, don't ask me why because I like it better lol. Yes, forgive my swollen face. I have been sleeping for this whole not-productive-holiday.

This is what inside the jar. You can see the dark colour, it's because this Detoxifying Clay Mask contains activated carbons.

Earthly Creations told me that this mask is for skin detox, so it cleans our face from toxic and free radical. Especially for the one who often wear makeups. I love makeups. I often wear some daily makeups. Also, Earthly Creations claim this mask can brighten the face skin.

This is me right after I use the mask. My face looks brighter and it feels soo clean and soo light. When I touched my face, it was so soft and smooth. The best thing is, I didn't have any breakout effects after I use this mask. (Well, my face is quite sensitive)

This mask also reduce my pimples. I kinda depressed when my baby-white-skin can't afford my makeups routine. So, yea, this mask helps.

The jar contains 50gr clay mask and you can buy it with affordable price. It is only IDR 60.000 and you can buy this directly from @earthly.id

So my conclusion :
If you love clay mask, have a sensitive face skin, daily makeup routines and want to brighten your face, maybe you can choose this natural handmade product.

Rate 1-5 :
⭐⭐⭐⭐

Why? I think Earthly Creations could make better labels for better packaging, because the design is cute already but the labels obviously being cut by hand. They could make some cute boxes for they amazing mask too !

Repurchase ?
Yes, I think :D

Provable Nature - Milk Smoothie Mask Review

Hi! Today I want to review about my another natural local brand, Provable Nature - Milk Smoothie Mask. Since my skin have been daker (as I mention on previous post) I decided to buy all of those whitening and brightening skincare to bring back my bright-white skin.


I bought this mask from @lovemybeauty29 2-3 weeks ago for only IDR 50.000 and they gave me free mask brush. Actually, since high school, I usualy use MABUK ORGANIK greentea mask for my mask powder, but, as a woman, I want to try another brand too! XD


This mask came with a cute packaging. The milk ones have a blue color for the stickers, and they use somekind of jam jar, I think? Lately some organic local brands use this jar for their masks, too.


I have my own mask kit (I bought them from one store at ITC Cempaka Mas), so I use this kit to apply my mask


This is what inside the jar. It looks like vanilla milk powder, right? Yup, even the texture is same as vanilla milk powder lol. I even suspect this mask actually baby's milk powder, since It has the same scent as baby's milk powder :p


When I applied it to my face, I'm surely wanna lick this mask. I love the smell, though. I love milky scent and milky texture




so I put 1-2 teaspoon (if you using the same mask kit as mine, take your mask using 5ml teaspoon twice), mix it with pure water or you can use rose water. If necessary, you can add some lemon juice or honey to your mixture. Take your mask brush, and apply it gently to your face. Wait your mask until it dries, and last, wash them off with warm water.


so this is me before I use the mask on. I already wash my face and use my peeling gel (I use Faceshop, and I'll review it later)




these photos show you the process before the mask dried. The color is white, almost trasnclucent.



and these are after the mask dried. Looks more white and ready to be washed off.


I like this mask, the color, the scent, the texture, I've used this mask for 3-4 times and now my skin is brighter than before. My skin also felt so soft after I use this mask.

What I like from Provable Nature - Milk Smothie Mask
- Good scent
- Well texture
- Makes my face brighter and softer
- affordable
- cute packaging

What I don't like
- none

Rate 1-5

Yes, four. why? because I want to use my MABUK Organik back :') It feels better for my face  I think, since I love the smell of their chocolate and greentea products.

Repurchase?
uhmm... maybe. hehe

The Bath Box Goats Don't Lie Liquid Soap Review

I've been a natural beauty enthusiast since I found a lot of pretty cute natural beauty products from instagram. First, I still afraid to try them, since they don't have any "BPOM". Honestly, I am a little bit afraid to use some "non BPOM" products. FYI, BPOM means Medicine and Food Supervisory Organisation.

But since I know those natural products come from real natural recources and also I've seen a lot of reviews and testimonials from other bloggers, So I think I would try one.

The first time I use these natural local brands was when I won one giveaway from PrettyRecipe. I felt so lucky ! I won one Yummy Lip Scrub from Gulaco and one Lychee Lip Balm from Jar of Beauty. I'll review them later, and anyway. I started to follow a lot of natural local brand products in Instagram. And... I found out Goats Don't Lie from The Bath Box at PrettyRecipe's Instagram. so, I decided to bought that. I try the little one, since I have a very serious super itchy allergic. Why I want to try this product? well... The Bath Box claim that Goats Don't Lie is really good for allergic, eczema, and also for sensitive skin, even some of their customers use it for their babies! So, HEY, I'm curious!


This is Goats Don't Lie size 250ml. This one is the smallest size from their liquid soap products. Goats Don't Lie liquid soap is unscented, When you apply it to your body, it smells like... sour milk, I think? Yet, It smells soft but still... I don't really like the scents, but nvm, since I found this product is soo amazing !


I bought the 500ml ones, since I've ran out the 250ml. As I mentioned before, I have a lot of super itchy allergic and those are in my upper legs up to my back side. Could you imagine that? Sometimes It'll feels too itchy when I've walk for a long time or doing something that makes my body full of sweat. Allergic mix those annoying sweat? do you think you can handle that? Even when I took a bath to remove those itchy feelings, It won't go from my skin, It still feels so itchy.
It was different when I tried Goats Don't Lie Liquid Soap. This product really calms my super itchy allergic. I don't have to scratch my allergic again and again 'till it bleeds (I'm screwed up, it was so fucking frustating). When I felt too sweaty and my itchy allergic was going crazy, I quicly took a bath using this liquid soap, until now, I still do that. 

After using one 250ml bottle of Goats Don't Lie, my allergic is all dryed up. I don't feel the allergic is so itchy again. The redness are all gone from my upper leg and backside. I don't have to scratch them out until they bleed.


The texture is different from another liquid soap. This one feels so liquid, almost like water. the color is somewhat like brown.


This soap won't give you any bubbles. I mean, It only produce just only a little bubbles, really little, literaly. the Bath Box said, you have to use the propper Shower Puff if you want more bubbles.


The packaging is pretty simple yet looks so elegant with their black-yellow label. The pump bottle is also ease me to use this soap.

Now I'm using the 500ml size. Since I use this soap for myself, I won't buy the 1ltr size :') It will be too much for me. Maybe later, after my mom and my dad found out this amazing product, I will buy the 1ltr size for my family :D

What I like from Goats Don't Lie Liquid Soap from The Bath Box
- calms my skin
- reduce my itchy feelings
- reduce my redness because of blood and scratching too much
- feels so fresh and clean after take a bath
- the unscented and natural ingredients

What I don't like from Goats Don't Lie Liquid Soap from The Bath Box:
- the original smells when I apply it to my skin

Rate 1-5:
4,5

Repurchase?
Since this soap is too good for my allergic, of course, YES

Anyway, you can visit their website and purchase another products from The Bath Box here ! If you still have any questions, just put your comments below ^^ xoxo~

Espoir Secret Eyelid Tape - Purple Size Review

I am an Asian girl (Chinese actually) that have monolid. Yes, I don't have double eyelids so it was really annoyed me when I have to use thick eyeliner for my small eyes. When my eyes are open, They'll look good, but when they're close, You'll see me as a ghost lol. To have downward-slanted eyes are really troublesome for me. Fortunately some clever people invented "eyetape" long long year ago.



Using Eyetape for me is a MUST. sometimes, I feel too lazy to put my eyetape, but when I can't use my eyeliner naturaly, I changed my mind and decided to wear my eyetape again.

As you know, some eyetapes are really "silky" I mean, the texture is not quite good when you want to put your eyeshadow. Some eyetapes have better texture, so you can put your eyeshadows and blend them easily, but still, I think they still looks un-natural.

I also always use my soft lenses to make my eyes bigger than their actual size. At least, my eyes and my face didn't look so pale and small.


So, I'm so glad that people nowadays invented "magic eyetape" or "invisible eyetape". First, I know these kind of tape from the famous beauty blogger, Stella Lee. Her product's name is Starry Light. I already tried them once, but unfortunately, those eytapes are too big for my eyes. Actually, I can just cut it from their actual size and put them to my small eyes, but surely, I am too lazy to do that, ofc. Using those kind of eyetapes already wasting my time. I really hope that I don't need to cut them and wasting more time.

So, I really glad when I know that some aquitances of me (I knew her from online shop shoutout groups) sells the same magic eyetapes but with various types. You also can take a look for her Instagram here.

Espoir Secret Eyelid Tape has 3 types of eyetapes, Pink Size which is the bigger ones (the size is same as Starry Light Eyetape), Yellow Size (I see this size on Espoir_id's instagram but I think this size is already sold out) and the last one, Purple Size which is the new product from Espoir.


One pack contains 75 eyetapes, which means somekind of 37 pairs, and one eyetape glue.

Overall, I like the simple packaging. I like the longlasting glue and also, the glue is quite good. It didn't leave any sticky feeling after I put it on my eyes.


Can you see my bigger eyes? This purple size is look so natural for my small eyes. The best part is, no need to cut it down to adjust the size for my small eyes.


These eyetapes also look almost invisible, but, I really have to use my eyeliner to hide some spots from these eyetapes.


as you see, these kind of eyetape have net patterns. Because of these net patterns, you can easily blend your primer, eyeshadows and your eyeliner without any hesitate. They'll still look so natural and invisible to your eyes.

My eyes have different size. The right ones is smaller than the left ones because it has thicker skin. Sometimes, my right eye will looks more smaller than the right eye even I already use this tape, so I use another invisible eyetape to make my right eyelid deeper and make it same with the left eye.


These are fiber eyetapes. I bought them from doublesweet13's stand at Artha Gading Mall. At first, I don't think these kind of eyetapes will help my eyes because these are too small and too thin. But, they're really perfect match for my purple size Espoir Secret Eyelid Tape !


Look at this small and thin thing. No, I don't wear them like this, ofc. How can I put it on my eye if they're still on their stick form?


 I have to pull the stick and the invisible and thin fiber will comes out. I use these fiber eyetapes right above my secret eyelid tapes to make my eyelids deeper.


As you can see, this is my right eye and I already used both my secret eyelid tape and fiber eyelid tape.


I only took my right eye photo, but FYI, my right eye already had the same size with my left eye after I used both of them.


I combine them with my eyeshadows, eyeliner, upper lashes, and also lower lashes. This is my final look. I use them to attended my cousin's party.

I finally can find perfect tapes for my "difficult" eyes.

What I like:
- unlike other eyetapes, Espoir Secret Eyelid Tapes give me natural eyelid.
- Make my eyes bigger
- they can lift even the thick monolid's skin
- almost invisible
- I can use and blend my eyeshadow easily on them
- I can combine it with another eyetapes (fiber eyetapes)
- the glue is really good. It doesn't make my skin feels itchy or somewhat else
- the glue is longlasting. I can even use it for one day full without any repairment.

What I don't like:
- still wasting my time. I have to put these eyetapes for 15-20 minutes.
- I have to use my eyeliner to hide the net patterns that sometimes still left at the bottom.

Rating !-5:
4

Repurchase?
Definitely, YES. because this eyetapes are really helpfull (also with the fiber eyetape too)

I think I don't need to review the fiber eyetape, I can't even use it without using my secret eyetapes, anyway lol. Okay, enough for today, please leave your comment below if you still have any questions. Thankyou~ ! ^^

My Teacher's Life

I'm a teacher. Actually, not a real teacher that teach some lesson at school. I am a part time teacher at a tuition. I teach primary school students. I taught senior high school students for accounting once, but at my new place, my task is for teach so many little friends :D



Being a teacher is not my dream. I didn't even imagine to teach a lot of students. For me, being a teacher is just for a person who have a lot of patience. My anger can easily explode, so I think being a teacher is not my job. But all of my opinions broke down when I have to work for having money for myself. My parents wouldn't give me any money for my college life. So, after having my record from high school, I choose to being a teacher for my part time job.


Actually, I could find another job like being a salesgirl or make an event organizers, but no, my parents banned me from being a salesgirl and I don't have enough bravery to join any event organizers, I don't have enough experience, though. I join work life at a very young age, I mean, I know It's not only me that should work for college life, I even work just for my own money, not for my family like what my parents have done before, but still, college student have to work and study both so hard is rare in this decade, right?


I know it's hard for the first time. Even I still can't accept my own choice to be a teacher, but now I think being a teacher is not a bad job. I even realised and learned some of important things that should be remembered if I already have my own child.

I love children, I mean, I love to watch they smile, I love to watch they laugh and happy because of me, I love to see they like to being taught by me. Some children that I taught have their own problems. They born in a divorce family, they don't have enough attention from their parents, their mom ignore them, and another unreasonable excuse from their children. For example, mother should be there to watch her child grow up and mother also should be there to teach them new things. Teach them to talk, run, seeing different colors, reading, singing, even teach them how to be a good child and have a good attitude. These are what I've learned. I want to be a full time mommy. I know it's a little bit too far. I'm still 20 years old and I already think to be a mommy. No, this is not about to fast or not. This is about my decision after seeing a lot of child that I've taught.


My high school student always go to learning center earlier than their study time. I ask them why, and they said, "I don't want to be at home. No one at home, It's better to talk and chit chat with you here, sis." When they talked like that, my heart broke into pieces. I don't have a good high school life. I am an introvert student back then, so I always bring all of my problems at school and tell it to my mother. I don't even want to go anywhere. It feels warm in my own home. I couldn't answer them. What could I did is gave them attention, encouraged them, and made them clever and happy because of me. They're almost finished their high school, now. The girls are on the 12th grade, and the boys are going to college this year. One of my student will be with me here! My college is not as famous as Prasetya Mulya University, UMN, Bina Nusantara University, or even as good as Universitas Indonesia, so I ask him why he want to go to the same college with me. He gave me a memorable answer. He said, "I want to be like you, sis." This is just a simple sentence. The shortest answer that I've heard when I ask someone why they choose something for their life. But from this simple statement, I realised that my job for being his teacher is accomplished. (Psst... He is the one that get some full score for economy and accounting exams after getting a lot of red marks for his score)

In my new tuition, I've found a lot of abandoned children. Most of them miss their mom's affection. One day my friends said, "Audrey said she is lucky today. When I ask her why, she said It's because her parents are at home today, and Daniel also said: oh, I am so lucky too." When I hear that I felt my heart broke into pieces for the second times. They said they're lucky because their parents are at home. It just... I always have my mother at home when I was at their age... (I even want to cry when I tell this to you. It really breaks my heart)

Another day, another friend said "Serenita really needs our attention. She still can't read" I asked back like curious "Didn't her mother teach her to study?" "nope, her dad even said 'like her mother's care. she can't even raise her" my friend answered. and... yeah, I can't even say a thing, nvm.


Conventional mother is still needed in this decade. Your social time, leisure time is important, but I think I'll forget all my time for my child. That is my commitment, not only a promise. I've seen how my mother raise my little brother, how my mother tell my cousins to raise their children with affection, I've even seen how my grandmother raise my father, and how my father loves her so much.

Qualified mom is needed to produce qualified children, your knowledge and experienced will give you benefit not only for work.

Modern moms, I know you wanna be pretty, I know you have your own social life, but please give affection and attention for your children. I am just a tuition teacher, I know I have no right, but I hope my opinion can inspired all of you.
