Not only my body is dry, but apparently being too long in air conditioned room affects my face too.

This year, YES as i grow older i need to pay extra attention to my skin. That's why i talked about skin care a lot this year. Keep searching for the perfect match to fits my body and face condition.

L'OCCITANE Indonesia send me a bunch of stuffs. I guess i got lucky, thank you L'OCCITANE Indonesia. There are 2 products became my favourite.

On this post i'm gonna talked about this Creme Radieuse - Hydration Cream (With Organic Angelica Water and Essential Oil).

First : What is Angelica?

It's not a girls name for sure :)
Angelia plant has a tremendous vitality. With its amazing water retention structure, it is able to lock moisture for its rapid growth and be the source of hydration.

Then Jean-Louis PIERRISNARD - L'OCCITANE Scientific Director researched the relationship between the hydration function of Angelica and human skin and discover the powerful Angelica Complex. and has been proven 39% give intensive hydration and vitality to the skin.

Seems promising, right?

I use this Hydration Cream for one month now. And i can say my skin loving it.

Before we get into the review, let's see this baby.

Swatch

My experience :

NOTE :
I'm not using this products alone, i use pre-essence before using this Hydration Cream.
I used this Hydration Cream at night, before sleep. Because now my focus is my dry skin, so i will keep it hydrate before i move forward to brightening it and get rid of my dark spots.

After removing my make up, i wash my face with facial wash, and put toner afterward.
Put an amount of Pre-Essence, then eye cream, and then i used this Hydration Cream, that's how i've roll for the past month.

And as the result, i love my skin condition right now. It only breaks me out near my period time, which is normal.

And woke up in the morning with moist and supple face.

What i love about this Hydration Cream

Not Perfume-y, even i smell almost no scent.
Texture very blendable, easy to absorb on skin surface 
15 ml, last more than a month which means you don't need to put large amount on it you already can feel it
More hydrate skin after using

What i don't like but bearable

If i decided to put this cream in the morning, i have to use extra sun protection because it contains no SPF
The packaging, i would prefer if they had plastic seal instead of the aluminium seal.

My skin condition right now

Yeah, better right? Excuse the eyebag, it's been forever there LOL..
I'll leave you to judge. Would be nice if you give me your two cents, feel free to drop your comments.
Thank you for reading my dearest fantabulous....

Dry Skin? Not Anymore with Olive Oil and Body Butter from Indonesia

Aku cinta buatan Indonesia..

Rasanya pas banget mengumandangkan sepenggal kalimat itu di bulan Agustus ini.
Kita memang gak harus memanggul senjata lagi, karena udah bukan jaman perang. Tapi gak berarti kita berhenti menunjukkan rasa cinta kepada Indonesia.

This is my way to show that i love my Country, by using the product that made in Indonesia :)

Sering berada di ruangan berAC? Kulit jadi kering, bersisik, dan kalau digaruk muncul garis putih? Turn off banget ya :(
Kulitku beberapa bulan terakhir ini begitu tuh. 9 jam di ruangan berAC bikin kulit kering banget ternyata.

Aku bukan tipe orang yang suka bolak balik mengaplikasikan suatu produk ke tubuh. Sama kayak aku males retouch make up, nah gitu pula behaviourku buat produk kecantikan yang lain. Males? Bukan.. Tapi pikir deh, kamu berangkat dari rumah, naik transportasi umum, beraktifitas dalam ruangan AC yang sirkulasi udara gak ganti, trus makan siang, balik lagi ke kantor. Kebayang gak selama perjalananmu dari rumah ke kantor/ kampus debu, kotoran dan lainnya menempel ke kulit. Trus udah gitu masih mau ditimpa ama produk lagi? Aduh not for me :(

Bisa sih ngakalin dengan bawa tissue basah kemana-mana, di lap buat bersihin debu dan kotoran yang menempel trus pake produk lagi. Too much work for me!

Selama ini pasrah dengan kondisi begitu. Tapi sekarang gak lagi donk, i came up with solutions as always. Mau cantik tapi gak bangkrut harus pinter-pinter putar otak LOL.

Meet The "One" or two :)

Mustika Ratu Olive Oil (Minyak Zaitun) dan Mustika Ratu Zaitun Body Butter

Iya, aku pake keduanya sebagai body lotion sekarang.

Caranya :

1. Aku tetesin 2-3 tetes Olive Oil di telapak tanganku
2. Aku colek body butter secukupnya trus ditaruh di telapak tangan yang sudah ada Olive Oil-nya
3. Diratakan dan diusap ke tangan, kaki, dan tempat-tempat lain yang biasa aku pake-in body lotion.

Hasilnya :

Pertama agak lengket, tapi bukan rasa lengket kayak ketumpahan makanan manis atau minyak. SUPER LEMBAB aja. Setelah 5 menit meresap dengan sempurna ke kulit.

Itu tips-nya, sekarang ke bagian love and hate yuk...

Love :
Kulitku super moist.. even seharian di kantor.
Wangi.

Hate :
Makenya emang gak praktis, "agak rempong" karena harus nyampur dua "adonan"
GAK ADA SPF book...
Ya ini in between sih, kalau kalian nyari produk yang praktis udah ada SPF ini jelas gak ya, kecuali mau make SPF yang terpisah.
Solusi buat kalian yang pengen pake metode nyampur-nyampur ini ya pake malem hari pas mau tidur, jadi gak ada SPF gak jadi masalah buat kalian :)

Harga :
Olive Oil : sekitar Rp 23.500
body Butter : sekitar 35.000
Total sekitar Rp 55.000
Nah, gak murah-murah banget sik. Tapi it works untuk kulit yang super duper kering! And i love it...

Mungkin kalian males ikutin tipsku nyampur 2 adonan, tapi gak ada ruginya kok stok si Olive Oil di rumah, bisa buat pijet, menutrisi rambut (kadang aku pake jadi gantinya conditioner leace in), bisa banget buat bersihin make up sampe mascara waterproof. So i hope postingan ini berguna ya.. Let me know what you think!

XOXO
