In The Name of Colors FB Page

Hola Sweeties!
I just made a FB Page (click here) of this blog. I think it's necessary because:

1. I never share anything about beauty or about things I write here on my personal FB account.
2. Some of you may think that some of my statuses aren't interesting because it's out of beauty topic (They are usually about politics, philosophy or just random thought of me which I post in Bahasa Indonesia).
3. To keep you and I keep in touch every time we want!

Actually there are many reason why do I think I must make a FB Page of this blog. But three reasons above are the important ones.

Okay, so, because this FB Page is still a little newborn baby, would you mind to give her some love by "like"ing her?
I really appreciate it! 
Thank you!

Review: Oriflame 2FX Mascara

Aloha Sweeties! It's another Oriflame product that my friend borrowed me. She said that this Oriflame 2FX Mascara is good and make our lashes look natural beside longer and thicker. Oriflame 2FX Mascara has 2 effects (just like its name) to lengthen and to thicken you lashes. They don't claim something big, they say that it has 2 effects. That's all.


Click on the picture to go to Oriflame Indonesia Website

That's the packaging of Oriflame 2FX Mascara I got from their website.

Oriflame 2FX Mascara

As you can see from the picture above, it has two parts, the white is for the thicken effect and the black one is for lengthen effect. Here are pictures of the brushes:


Lengthen brush of Oriflame 2FX Mascara
Thicken brush of Oriflame 2FX Mascara

Now is testing time! First, let me show my bare lashes.





I have short, thin and rare lashes. So, a good mascara is a must for me.

First step, apply the lengthen effect of Oriflame 2FX Mascara

After Lengthen Effect of Oriflame 2FX Mascara

After Lengthen Effect of Oriflame 2FX Mascara

I don't see any differences but it becomes more black. FYI, I applied it more than once, still it doesn't give me the lengthened effect.

Second step, apply the thicken effect of Oriflame 2FX Mascara.



Oops! The brush kept touch my eyelids. It made my eyelids full of mascara. I hate it. 



I had to clean the mascara on my eyelids. Now you can see the result. Still, I don't see any differences! The thicken effect didn't make my lashes thicker, it just patch my lashes to other lashes.




This Oriflame 2FX Mascara doesn't make my lashes thicker and longer. So, I don't like this product. And, this product doesn't dry fast enough. So if you blink you'll get black eyelids. It isn't waterproof.

Price of this product: Rp129.000 (Catalogue price)
Repurchase: NO (I will not buy this product)

Oriflame used to have a product name Oriflame Eyelashes Booster or Booster Mascara ( I forgot). It was a really great and amazing product. It did boost your lashes growth, make them become thicker and longer. But they stop produce this product. I don't know why. 

Okay, that's all my review about Oriflame 2FX Mascara. I hope you find it helpful :)

Review: Oriflame Very Me Clickit Eyeliner

Hi Sweeties! Today I make a review about Oriflame Very Me Clickit Eyeliner. I don't have these items, my friend borrows me hers so I can make a review about them.
Oriflame used to have series named Oriflame Visions, but the products weren't really good especially the color intensity (really bad). They were the cheapest series of Oriflame.

To replace the Visions series, Oriflame made Very Me series that fit for active teenagers and young women. Some of their very first products was Clickit (Eyeliners, Mascaras, Lip glosses and Lip stains). It's better than Visions and not too expensive.

Here is the picture of Oriflame Very Me Clickit Eyeliner

Click on the picture to go to Oriflame Indonesia Website
It has many colors, black, grey, green, blue and brown. I think they had purple but I checked their website they didn't say purple. Except black, all of them are glittery.

It's really small, easy to put in your small makeup bag. But the silver part on its packaging will fade easily, so all you get is only the black one. Here are the pictures:


With Clickit Connector you can connect your favorite combination (mascara+eyeliner or  lip stain+mascara)

The packaging is nice for the beginning but then it becomes really ugly. The connector idea is nice.




I love the thin brush they have. It makes you can get the line as thin as possible.

No flash
With flash

The intensity is good! 


smudge test
It passed the smudge test! It doesn't fade but the glitter spreads. BUT it's NOT WATERPROOF.


I didn't find any difficulty when I apply them. The thin brush is so amazing. I can make a very slim line.

BUT!
It hurts my eyes so much! I can't stand to wear it longer because it makes my eyes sting and heat. It's my first time ever to get my eyes hurt because of eyeliners. I have Oriflame Stylo which has a very gentle formula, even if I accidentally touch my eyeball with Oriflame Stylo, it doesn't make my eyes hurt.

Because of this disaster, I don't know how long it can stand. But friends said if your eyelids are oily it doesn't stay for long time. So, better to apply a good base first.

I have some friends who already use this product. They don't complain anything about this product. They love it. So, I think it doesn't happen to everyone.

Price: Rp49.900 (Catalogue price)
Repurchase: No (or in proper statement, I will not buy this product) 

But hey, people say that Oriflame Very Me Clickit Lip Stain is good. I wanna try it.

Okay, That's all my review about Oriflame Very Me Clickit Eyeliner. Hope you find it helpful.

New Blog Banner

Aloha Sweeties!

I introduce you to brown-skinned girl with ombre hair! She is my new banner :D


Again and again I changed my blog appearance. But now I didn't change the whole look, only the banner. I used to don't use any banner on my blog but it doesn't show the identity of my blog (like it has. Haha). So, I made this simple banner:


I really love colors. That's why I love rainbow so much. Rainbow always be my inspiration for some of my works.

The way I made that banner was so simple. I only used one kind of brush in Adobe Photoshop and 7 colors, then arranged. Haha

In now's banner, I chose a little more difficult way. Haha. I made a sketch with pencil and then I bolded it with black drawing pen. I made it as simple as I can, because I was going to trace it in Photoshop.

I don't hace scanner machine so I capture a picture of it with my digital camera. Then I edited it with Photoshop and give it colors and also changed it direction.



Still, the rainbow inspired me. I made her, the brown-skinned girl, a rainbow ombre hair.
This work really messy. It has been a very long time since my last work. Haha. But I'm proud with this work. I'm always proud with all my work. Because I know I do my best in everything with every way I can.

Although I'm proud with my work, I still wanna know what you think about this banner? Is it good or not? Any advices? I really love to know :)

How I Know What The Name of Colors I Use Are

Hello Sweetie!
How is your Valentine's Day? Mine is just like the other days. Haha... I even don't go anywhere. Just stay at home, crocheting, playing games, sleeping (What a SUPER LAZY DAY).

In today's post I wanna share something about the name of colors. FYI, I have a 120 colors eyeshadow palette. I love all the gorgeous colors but I don't know what their names are. So, it's very difficult for me when I want to tell you what color I wear in my makeup. If you read my older post, you'll find that I named them, the variant of blue with blue #1, blue #2, etc. Haha...

That's not cool I thought... Haha
So I decided to find something that could help me, and I found it!

It's a simple site but really helpful. When the other sites show us the list of colors (the names and its codes), this site make our searching easier. All we have to do is click one of the color square, and then they'll show us the name and the code. We don't have to search them in the list.

The name of this site is...
Color Name

Here are some of the pictures of this site... 





This site has weakness, they don't sort the colors based on color gradation... >_<

Aha! That's all :D
I hope you find it helpful!
