What is The Skin House exactly? Maybe not everyone of you have ever heard about this Korean

This is few explanation about The Skin House.


The box full of Korean language which I cannot translate. hehe..
So I searched in the internet the explanation about Essential Cleansing Oil.


Type : Cleansing oil

Suitable for : All skin type
Main Ingredients : Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil, Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil

Product description:
The cleansing oil which even melts the waste matters inside the pores.
Essential Cleansing Oil deeply cleanses and removes not only water proof makeup or point makeup but also blackheads, sebum inside the pores and old keratin. This soft feeling cleansing oil is a mild cleanser which doesn’t block the pores, and is suitable for sensitive skin.
By containing Olea Europaea (Olive) Fruit Oil, Rosa Canina Fruit Oil and so on which are excellent in moisturizing properties, it finishes up cleansing moistly without stickiness.



How to use:

1. Wash your hands cleanly and get rid of the moisture perfectly.
2. Pump an adequate amount of the oil and apply it to the whole face.
3. Use your fingers to massage it in a circle fairly for 20~30 seconds.
4. Rinse off the residues cleanly with lukewarm water.

 *For dry skin, use the oil for the first cleansing step and then finish up to prevent dryness. For oily skin, use the oil for the first cleansing step and then finish up with the foam cleansing as a second cleansing step.



This is the test of how The Skin House Essential Cleansing Oil remove eyeshadow on skin.


1. Full eyeshadow
2. I get a drop of essential cleansing oil (it consistency is more fluid than baby oil) and rub it to the eyeshadow
3. remove the residue with cotton. Voila! clean skin

And this is how I remove eyeshadow, eyeliner and mascara on my eyes.


1. Pump amount of oil on the cotton, lightly press the cotton to eye and wait for few second before remove the eyeshadow
2. First rub
3. Second and few rub
4. Voila, clean eye area!

When I have full make up to be removed, I follow the instruction from internet. I massage the oil to whole face for 1-2 minutes, then remove the residue with cotton.

Conclusion:
This Essential Cleansing Oil is absolutely great to remove dirt and makeup. My skin feel moist, soft and nice after the cleansing. The sebum and blackheads also lessen.
What a good thing to experiencing a new way to cleanse my face^^

Privia V-Face BB Review

I have another review for Privia U brand. This time is BB Cream. My ultimate fave beauty product ever. I always crazy about BB Cream. This product is like my beauty holy grail. Can't live without it, always adore how its magic for my skin.

This is the BB Cream. It has high SPF. Nice right? The packaging looks beautiful and exclusive because of the metallic shine effect. So clever! And the pretty illustration on it makes me hard to resist.



Beautiful dancing girl 

The consistency of Privia U BB Cream. It's pretty thick. I love it coz it means high coverage (but still, lighter than foundation).
Blend blend blend

Noww... for my before and after.

You can see here, my redness and uneven skin tone is reducing. It also gives me a little bit glow.

My face looks clearer and brighter, right? it much nicer and can really see the difference in real life.

My thought: I do love this Privia U BB Cream. The coverage and the color is so nice, match to my tone. Not too light and not too white. The one I don't like is one of the ingredients. It contains talc. Errmm.. Maybe because it contains talc, so the BB Cream smells like powder talc? Does it even related? xp

For you who want another BB Cream to try, Privia U can be one of your choice ;D

Privia U Glittering Shiny Lipstick-03.OR (Orange)

I had been wanting coral lippies, and I got it! xD
Actually, the color written on the packaging isn't 'coral' but 'orange'. I just think when I apply it, it becomes coral instead of orange. hehehe..

Don't want to spoil in the beginning. Just keep reading (:



See.. the lipstick color itself not that orange.

I love the packaging. Very exclusive with the fuschia transparent as the basic color and silver hologram for the decoration.

This is the color indoor

Outdoor

The color is popped more in real life

Color:   Texture:   Staying power:   

My thought:
Talking about its color it's a bit funny. First, the name is Orange, but I found out it's more coral-ish. Then when I apply, at the first you can see it has coral orange-ish shade, but after few minutes for an hour, it becomes coral pink-ish shade. haha.. 
I still love the color though! It's suitable for daily look or hang out look.
This Privia U lipstick is creamy but not too pigmented and hydrate. As you can see in my close up pic, it doesn't have smooth coverage on my lips. It looks chapped.

Until next time!

Etude House Kissful Tint Chou Review

Happy weekend, girls!
I've been a fan of lip tint for now and always. Such one of the greatest beauty product ever invented. hohoo...

Soo...I've been having this EH tint chou for months. This tint doesn't like the other lip tint that have popped color when we apply it. This tint's color is very sheer, almost like lipgloss.



This is the look of lip tint texture and color. It has cherry smell.

Applied to my lips. (Note: I used red lip tint before the lip tint)

Color:    Texture:     Staying power:    Smell:  

My thought:

As you can see, the tint chou color is so sheer, right? I even have to use colored lip tint first. 
Then you will ask me why on earth I bought this product. Well, the answer is to make my lipstick or lip tint stays even longer, moist and give my lips a gloss look. Besides, I think the main usage for this tint chou is to moist your lips. It's said in the packaging.

I like this product when I apply it together with the others lippies. But for using it alone, I won't like it :p 

Will I repurchase again? Mmmm... I don't think sooo... But I don't know. I think I like this more than lipgloss.

Hope you have a nice weekend, all! (:

Maybe you all have ever heard about Korean Eyebrow. It's straight shape eyebrow (normally, people have arched shape eyebrow).
This Korean eyebrow make you look innocent, cute and younger. Just only with your brows, your all face appearance will be different.

So, this is I'm going to do. Fill my brows so they will look straight.
I'm using my maybelline eyebrow pencil like this.



Tadaa... my brows after I drew them straight!

Korean Scrub Treatments with Mint Day Spa and Salon

My Saturday was all about pampering myself!
How happy I was, coz I had a chance to get a treatment at Mint Day Spa and Salon. The other day I got an invitation from Mint Day Spa and Salon owner, Ms. Delphine. I would get their specialty treatment, the Korean scrub.
Yes, Korean. This is the secret of Korean women's healthy, smooth and bright skin! I know we are all envy with their beautiful skin.

Actually, I ever read before on fimela.com about this Korean scrub. So I was so excited that the subject of the article I read the other time, contacted me. hohoo..

My appointment was yesterday at 13.30. The address of the spa is at Jl. Wahid Hasyim no. 65. The building is very easy to spot because the location is in the side of main road and very close from Sarinah.



Mint Day Spa and Salon is at the second floor of the building. First time the lift door opens, you will see this logo right in front of you.



This is the reception area. I told them about my appointment, and they guide me to the treatment room. 

Here, you will be served by one dedicated therapist. Oh and by the way, this Korean Spa treatments are only for women, so the therapists also all women. 

My Korean Spa treatment consist with three process: Sauna, Scrub and Massage.

So, here the preparation area before treatments.


Lockers to keep your belongings and clothes.


These are things on the dressing table. They provide hairdryer, in case you need to wash your hair after treatments.


This was my outfit for treatment. Just like in other spa or salon, you can change your clothes with this strapless dress and take off your underwear.


Please mind my selfie of the day. I didn't wear my makeup at all that day. I saw there was no use to wear at all when I would get sweat and wet anyway.

Changing room

Aisle to treatment rooms


So, the beginning of the journey to beautiful skin -> SAUNA.
Steam your body inside Sauna can makes your body relax, smoothen the skin and open skin pores.

I took this process for about 20 minutes. I don't easily get sweating. That's why I was pretty long being in there xp



Okay, my first process was finished.

Next, Scrubbing process! the process I had been waiting for^^
The room was all wet from the floor to the bed. Well, I was quite surprised with this condition. But this is the unique point of the treatment.

The therapist asked me to take off my strapless dress. I was supposed to took of my panties too, because in the end, it was all wet! I was too shy took that off, so I just wore it. How can I let people I don't know see me all naked? lol.

The exfoliation starts with a special Korean scrub pad to remove dead skin cells. The pad were so rough, so the therapist just use that only without any scrub cream to exfoliate my full body.

There were so many dead skin cells after the scrub. I didn't where all of it came from O,o. After the scrub scrub scrub, I was given body lotion scrub to replenish skin with nutrients and I got my body massaged with milk to regenerate collagen production.

All process were so nice. I enjoyed every step^^

My skin does smoother but I don't know if my skin gets brighter. Gotta ask my BF later on ;D


In addition to Spa treatments, Mint also have salon with various service like eye lash extention, waxing, full body massages and more.

This Spa is really really worth to try out. Definitely will come back here when I have the time. So happy!^.^
