No matter how busy I am, I always try to spare some time to do my weekly routine, exfoliate and mask. By doing this skincare ritual regularly, I can have smaller pores and better skin texture. I have a normal-to-dry skin and it has been raining, so let me introduce you the squad I have arranged. The steps mentioned here is inspired by how Korean women treat their skin in 12 steps Korean Skincare Routine.

Melanjutkan hasil dari posting sebelumnya tentang beauty haul tidak disengaja, aku mau review produk Emina yang sudah aku pakai yah.



1. Emina The Bright Stuff Face Toner
Kemasannya lucu, imut. Aku pikir toner ini bakalan cepet habis, ternyata nggak juga. Aku pilih yang ini karena bisa menghilangkan kekusaman pada kulit. Sejak tinggal di Surabaya, kulitku jadi lekas kusam sih.
Wangi produknya lumayan agak kuat. Baunya lumayan familiar, mirip dengan produk toner yang dulu pernah aku pakai (tapi lupa). Tapi tetep oke, bahkan pas dilihat di kapas, dia bisa angkat sisa kotoran pula. Kulit juga jadi lembab, tidak kering.

2. Emina Sugar Rush
Ini! Benar-benar cinta pertamaku pada Emina. Wanginya? Ehmm super duper enak. Wangi vanilla dicampur gula. So sweet. Pertama kali dipakaikan ke wajah, terasa sedikit agak panas tapi untung tidak ada reaksi ataupun iritasi apa-apa sesudahnya. Aku pakai ini setelah melakukan double cleansing, kondisi kulit wajah tidak dibasahi dengan air ya. Rasanya enak sekali, sembari menikmati baunya yang yummy, kulit juga terasa direlaksasi karena butiran gulanya yang berfungsi sebagai exfoliator. Meskipun ada olive oil, tapi tetap mudah untuk dibilas. Hasilnya? Kulit terasa bersih, rileks, dan segar.

3. Emina Green Tea Latte Face Mask
Oke, jadi aku sempet kewalahan mencari masker ini di toko-toko kosmetik karena pasti tidak ada. Tesktur produk ini sangat encer, jadi begitu dioleskan ke seluruh wajah, tidak terlihat seperti sedang memakai masker. Warna hijau pada produk juga jadi tidak terlihat pada kulit wajah. Setelah didiamkan selama 15-20 menit, dibilas dengan air. Membilasnya pun mudah. Sesudah memakai ini, kulit wajah terasa sangat halus dan kenyal.

4. Emina Trace Less Oil Cleanser
Tertarik sekali dengan produk ini karena memang dari dulu kepingin beli oil cleanser tapi produk import harganya mahal-mahal bingit. Pas pertama dipakai, baunya aku kurang suka karena seperti minyak gosok. Tapi ketika dipakai di wajah, ternyata memang efektif mengangkat kotoran. Aku pakai satu kali, kemudian aku lanjutkan dengan Garnier Micelar Water sih.

Overall, aku suka sekali dengan Emina terutama Sugar Rush dan Green Tea Latte Face Mask-nya. They will definitely be my beauty staple (y).

So, I have a colleague whose wife is an Oriflame member. Last month, he brought 2 catalogues of Oriflame, January and February edition. I found February more interesting than the January, so I wrote down my order in a piece of paper. After 3 weeks, the products arrived! Yay!

1. Oriflame Tender Care Rose Protecting Balm Rp. 19.900
It is half priced and in a lovely pink packaging. What makes me love this more is when I opened the box, there is a pink rose in the inner side of it.


2. Oriflame Silk Beauty White Glow Hand Cream Rp. 48.500
Sad but true, my skin not as soft as other girls because I didn't use to apply moisturizer religiously. The most obvious part is my hands, so I bought this hand cream. This one was at discounted price, too. I adore the smell and the texture. It leaves no greasy feeling, yet moisturising my skin well.

3. Oriflame Love Nature Creamy Mask - Oat Rp 26.900

4. Oriflame Love Nature Clay Mask - Burdock Rp 26.900

5. Oriflame Love Nature Gel Mask - Cucumber Rp 26.900

Driven by my curiosity, I finally had this product, too. My sister had bought this one along with the conditioner. I tried them several times, and it worked well to me. My hair was getting smoother and didn't fall a lot.
I bought this in Guardian, when there was a 10% promo. Of course it was a good deal for me, because this is going to be way cheaper than keep on using Kerastase *phew*.

The liquid is green, with very low concentration of perfume. I can barely smell any scent from it. Unfortunately, this one (also) makes your scalp dry if you don't use the conditioner, too.

But, one thing I notice is that it helps my hair grow faster. I cut my hair too short accidentally, so it helps me through.

The main problem for every girl who is wearing hijab is... Hair Fall! But for me, this is the number 1 problem in the world *sigh*

1. Kerastase Bain Prevention


I was getting my hair cut in a decent hair salon who also sells Kerastase products. The salon assistant offered me this because she realised that I had problem with hair fall. It cost around IDR 200,000. It has no colour, not too foamy, but it does smell really good. It also has a soft lovely jasmine scent. I really love the feeling every time I wash my hair with this product. One thing you might concern is this shampoo dries your hair, so I recommend you use a good hair conditioner afterward.


2. Kerastase Densitive GL

After washing the hair with Kerastase shampoo, I dry my hair with towel and use this product. It smells really, really good. It costs slightly more expensive than the shampoo, around IDR 300,000.

After using those products, my hair doesn't fall as much as before (yay!). But once I change to another product, my hair will fall more. There is also dandruff since the scalp gets drier when I don't use the root spray.

However, I am still trying to find the best formula for my hair fall problem. I have also tried Mane 'N Tail shampoo that people talk about. You can read my review here disini.
