Hello Dear Nitartstudio Guests~!

How are you doing?

I'm back with an event report!

(^_____^)/)

Did you know that Pond's has been around since 1846?

Well... i didn't!

i found out when i attended the latest Pond's event at Mulia Hotel, Jakarta, Indonesia :

"Pond's White Beauty Journey Kisah 25 tahun Pond's & Kamu"

 

The MC

The event first started by the MC warmly welcoming fellow media partners and bloggers

Bloggers and Media

It's a full house! >___<

Senior Brand Manager POND'S

Mrs. Anggiaswari Odang (Riri)

She told us that based on the survey they did, apparently 93% of Indonesian women realised that they differ in terms of beauty one to another and they're actually proud to be a part of that diversity

 Maudy Ayunda (Pond's brand ambassador), Mrs. Riri, Mrs. Endang, Mrs. Lilik

Each of the beautiful ladies on stage shared a lot of things related to Pond's, while Mrs. Riri was focusing on the brand knowledge, history and such, Maudy Ayunda on the other hand shared about her experience when she first tried Pond's facial foam years ago

Here comes the interesting part!

 All of the sudden, we were asked to make a scrapbook using a lot of decorations provided

(ribbons, flowers, origami papers, markers, etc.)

 the theme was "25th anniversary of Pond's and You

It was a competition between groups (1 table = 1 group)

 

My table's scrapbook creation~! XD

Each team had to do brief explanation about their own scrapbook in front of all of the guests

Maudy Ayunda picked a fashion blogger as the best dress

This is the SMOOTHEST one compared to other variants i've tried

Review : Coffee Bar Soap by Moporie!

Hola Nitartstudio Guests~!

I'm back with another handmade soap bar review after Blackberry & Raspberry and Double Mint Tea!

 (\(^_____^)/)

Now it's COFFEE !!!

*love love the scent of coffee~~~*

If you're a coffee lover, what could be better than bathing with its scent? lol 8D

Price :

IDR 30.000 (around $3)

Ingredients :

Olive Oil, Palm Oil, Coconut Oil, Canola Oil, Custor Oil, Water, Coffee, Glycerin, Fragrance, Coffee Powder, Colorants, Silk

Scent :

I can smell the coffee powder pretty vividly, which i like. If you're not a fan of Coffee then you i bet wouldn't like this product.

Performance :

Unlike other variants that i have tried which are soooooo smooth, this variant is ROUGH.

WHY?

Apparently it's because of the real coffee powder as one of the ingredients included as natural exfoliants.

"Coffee scrub exfoliates your skin, helps prevent acne, reduces the appearance of fine lines and hyperpigmentation and softens your skin. Because caffeine is a natural diuretic, coffee scrubs can also help stimulate the movement of water through your body, making your skin temporarily appear firmer and making skin problems like cellulite less noticeable."

Moisturizing level :

Not as drying as most of the commercial bar ones, it's OK.

Side Effects :

None, doesn't trigger anything bad to my skin BUT you have to be careful not to rub this product too hard on your skin because of the roughness.

Recomended For :

COFFEE LOVERS! lol~ XD

Do Not Recommended For :

Those who don't enjoy the scent of Coffee. All of Moporie's handmade soap bars are actually suitable for sensitive skin type, but i personally wouldn't recommend this variant if you have sensitive skin because i don't think it's gentle enough for your skin. 

Pros :

+ Natural exfoliator

+ Coffee Scented

+ No harsh chemicals / preservatives

Cons :

- Cost more

- Doesn't last as long as commercial bars

Conclusion :

If you love coffee and haven't tried this soap bar, then you're missing out! lol~ XD

Beautiful Tips during Ramadhan with BB Cream!

Howdy, Ladies!

Happy fasting to all my Muslim friends~!!! (^_____^)/) 

Taking care of your skin to stay beautiful throughout Ramadan can be a challenge or a concern for beauty enthusiasts. The ridiculous Jakarta heat and fasting may lead you to think that your skin could look dull because your body loses vitamins and minerals.

Based on that concern, i will share some tips to stay beautiful during Ramadan!! :D

1. Don’t skip suhoor

    Prophet Muhammad salallaho alayhi wasalaam said, “Take (the meal of) suhoor because there is blessing in it.” (Bukhari) Knowing the immense reward and that good deeds are multiplied during this month, how could you miss out on something that not only will be a source of barakah but will help sustain you and provide you energy throughout the day. Make sure you have the right nutrients and balanced meal so you can stay positively radiant all through this blessed season of goodness.

2. Keep Your Skin Hydrated

Fasting for long hours along with the hot weather and lack of fluids, might lead to skin damage and dryness, so don't forget to keep your skin hydrated during this season.

Examples :

- Drink not less than 8 cups of water (or more if possible). Other fluids work as well, whether the traditional Ramadan drinks or even a cup of green tea. They can do magic as well as rejuvenate your skin!

- Break your fast with foods/drinks with high hydrating agents such as Aloe Vera juice, Coconut Water (great options that have natural sugars and are super hydrating.)

3. Control your Caffeine and Soda intake

Limit your intake of caffeine in terms of soda and coffee, as they can easily absorb minerals and fluids from your body, which will leave your skin dry. 

4. Control your Sugar intake

It’s quite common to have an irregular sweet tooth during Ramadan, but try to avoid eating too much sugar. Refined sugar, which is in most sweets, is bad for you. Not only does it affect your immune system, but it causes skin inflammation.

5. Be Careful of Dairy Products!

If your skin is sensitive to dairy products, avoid drinking lots of milk because it can enhance pimples and acne. 

6. Sleep Well

When it comes to Ramadan, sleep cycle all over again is a very significant thing. If your sleep cycle is disrupted and you are not giving your body the precise amount of rest and sleep which it needs, this will become a cause for skin problems in the holy month of Ramadan.

7. BB Cream

BB refers to Beauty or Blemish Balm, a multi-functional cream that has both make-up and skincare properties.

Garnier BB cream is an all-in-one moisturiser combining skincare with mineral pigments to even skin tone, illuminate, cover imperfections, with 24Hr hydration and SPF protection. A natural look in just one step, just you at your best~!!! :D

That's it, ladies!

Pretty easy, right?

Hope the tips are useful to you and HAPPY FASTING!!!

See you soon dear beauty enthusiasts~

Review : Double Mint Tea Bar Soap by Moporie!

Howdy ho dear Nitartstudio Guests~!

I'm back with another review of handmade bar soap variant

Who loves Mint? please raise your hand!!! i know i do~~~ (^____^)/)

YUP! it's Double Mint Tea handmade bar soap review

Let's see the packaging of the product

Logo and variant name on the front side

Ingredients list on the back

This is how it looked like after i've removed the see-through plastic packaging

Bottom

Top

Pretty-shaped with some sprinkles~ :3

Thickness

Price :

IDR 30.000 (around $3)

Ingredients :

Olive Oil, Palm Oil, Coconut Oil, Canola Oil, Custor Oil, Water, Green Tea, Glycerin, Fragrance, Colorants, Silk

Scent :

Slightly scented, i could hardly smell anything. If i had both of my eyes closed, it'd take me forever to guess it's Mint. I prefer more vivid scent when it comes to body soap so this is definitely not my favorite. However, i asked Rie (Moporie's owner) why this variant doesn't have a vivid scent like the others and it turned out the ones with less fragrance like this particular one are for people with sensitive skin. The other soap bars she made are already suitable for sensitive skin but i guess this one is for those with really, really sensitive skin.

Performance :

Lathers so easily and glides on fine.

Moisturizing level :

The same level with the Blackberry & Raspberry bar which i have reviewed previously. It's OK, not crazy moisturizing but not as drying as most of the commercial bar ones.

Side Effects :

None, doesn't trigger anything bad to my skin.

Recomended For :

Those with extra sensitive skin but still want to experience enjoyable and fun bath time everyday with skin-friendly product without harsh chemicals included~ :D

Do Not Recommended For :

Those who enjoy vivid scent soap bar because of its faint scent.

Pros :

+ No harsh chemicals / preservatives

+ Skin-friendly (can be used for those with EXTRA sensitive skin)

+ Lathers easily

+ Pretty moisturizing compared to commercial bars

Cons :

- Cost more

- Doesn't last as long as commercial bars

- Faint scent

Conclusion :

For those with extra sensitive skin, you can put this into consideration, it's safe, moisturizing, fun and sooo pretty! ^___^

Drag Queen Make-Up Collaboration as Lady Autumn Crocus!

Hiya Dear Nitartstudio Guests~! 

I'm back with another Art Make-Up creation! *WOO-HOOOO!!!*

However... this time is quite different because guess what,

it's a Collaboration Make-Up Project with the other fella beauty bloggers!

Yay~! (\(^______^)/)

The theme of our make-up collab is "Drag Queen" mixed with dangerous poison in the world

(most of us chose beautiful but deadly poisonous flowers)

and oh, if you guys didn't know what "Drag Queen" is, here's the definition.

According to Wikipedia, Drag Queen is :

"A man who dresses, and often acts, with exaggerated feminity. There are many different possible purposes to drag, personal reasons for doing drag will differ for individual drag queens. It is often done for the purpose of self-expression, performing and entertaining, and can also be mainly important as a creative outlet, a means of self-exploration or a way to make cultural statements."

As for the deadly flower, i chose "Autumn Crocus"

"Autumn Crocus is one flower you don’t want to encounter on your next break. One of the most endangered plants in the world, Autumn Crocus is also the most poisonous. It contains colchicine, a drug used to treat gout. Unlike other toxins found in some flowers, colchicine has no antidote. Autumn Crocus poisoning leads to reduced blood pressure and cardiac arrest."

Without further due...

Here's my Art Make-Up Creation as "Lady Autumn Crocus" for the Collaboration :
