Cara Make Up Simple Di Hari Spesial Dengan Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover

Monday, February 19, 2018

Introducing to my dear readers, the newly launched Maybelline flawless coverage Super Cushion Ultra Cover plus cara make up untuk occasion apapun. Produk ini hasil renovasi dari Maybelline BB Cushion sebelumnya.

Thanks to Maybelline Indonesia for sending me these products. Yays! Aku jadi semakin semangat untuk rajin sharing banyak hal gak cuma tentang review tentang skincare tapi sekarang aku akan berusaha lebih rajin lagi untuk sharing cara make up versi aku di blog & youtube. Oia tentunya di post kali ini, ada yang spesial loh :D This post is about creating quickest makeup for Special day using Maybelline products.

First of all, bicara soal makeup base, aku termasuk orang yang lebih nyaman menggunakan BB cream ketimbang foundation, karena lebih ringan di wajah. Kalau dari pengenalan Maybelline Super Cushion yang ultra cover ini sudah pastinya akan meng-cover wajah banget, kemampuan dari BB Cushion ini dapat menyamari pori, flek hitam dan bikin wajah kita akan tetap terlihat mulus meski dari jarak dekat sekalipun loh, terlebih SPF-nya juga lebih tinggi. Produk Super Cushion ini bisa di katakan long lasting di wajah loh.

Packaging Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover ini lain daripada yang lain, biasanya cushion yang aku punya selalu berwarna putih, nah kalau produk ini keliatan eksklusif banget karena nuansa premium black gold-nya. Puff cushion produk Maybelline ini berwarna hitam, sangat berbeda dengan puff cushion brand lain yang kebanyakan berwarna biru putih atau putih.

This is Maybelline 1st Liquid BB Cushion packed with 8 benefits;

1. Dewy Radiance

2. Intense Hydration

3. High Coverage

4. Poreless Finish

5. Even skintone

6. No stickiness

7. No touch-ups

8. SPF 50+/PA+++ (high Sun protection)

……to give you the flawless covered pore-less perfection look. No setting powder nor concealer needed!

Cushion terbaru dari Maybelline ini memiliki formula baru, coverage seperti foundation, tapi terasa ringan seperti BB cream. Tahan lama dengan SPF 50++. Produk Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover ini tersedia dalam 2 shade;

Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover Sand Beige.

Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover Natural Beige.

Shade yang aku pilih tentunya sand beige ketimbang natural beige. Biasanya memang aku kalau memilih make up base baik foundation/cc cream/bb cream aku cenderung memilih yang natural (main aman), tapi untuk produk Maybelline Super Cushion ini shade Natural Beige agak lebih cerah + putih dari Sand Beige. So far aku cocok sama produk ini.

Kalau kalian perhatikan baik-baik foto diatas, muka asli aku lagi dapat kena musibah (sedih banget sih liat muka ada bekas cakar T.T, tapi gak apa-apa sekarang lagi masa pengobatan & pemulihan ke kulit wajah kembali kinclong seperti sebelumnya). Aku pun disini termasuk berani ambil risiko untuk nyobain produk Maybelline Super Cushion ini disaat umur luka baru 2 hari.

Oia, kalau kalian perhatikan baik-baik foto diatas, untuk daerah bekas cakaran aku coba mengaplikasikan “Natural Beige” sebagai concealer dan hasilnya mampu menutupi bekas luka, selebihnya untuk seluruh muka aku menggunakan “Sand Beige”.

Aku juga sempat membuat torture test produk Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover dengan produk BB cushion dari produk lain.

Seperti yang kalian lihat dari foto diatas, pertama kali aku coba produk ini, aku cuman tap perlahan tanpa menekan puff dan ya #1SuperTap dari Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover sudah cukup meng-cover flek hitam di area pipi aku dan juga sekejap membuat wajah jadi flawless, cara makeup ter-singkat yang pernah aku lakukan karena keberadaan produk ini, berbeda dengan hasil yang diberikan dari produk BB cushion brand lain, flek-flek hitam di wajahku belum tersamarkan dengan baik.

Lalu, aku juga melakukan torture test di wajahku yang penuh dengan bekas cakaran untuk melihat hasil super coverage dari produk Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover (awalnya sempat dag dig dug jantung, karena takut iritasi), tapi ternyata produk Maybelline ini aman banget di gunakan diatas bekas luka di wajah, gak perih sama sekali. Berbeda dengan produk BB cushion dari brand X yang aku coba aplikasikan di wajah bekas luka, sempat kerasa nyeri dan hasilnya sangatlah mengecewakan karena tidak menutupi bekas luka-ku sama sekali (warna ke-merah-an dari bekas lukanya masih terlihat jelas).

The result is, Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover is able to cover about 85% of my scars without using concealers (which means acne and blemishes are adequately hidden). So, if you have acne-prone skin/freckles that you want to cover up, but are worried about foundation clogging up your pores, you’re in luck, this Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover does not agitate or break out acne-prone skin, a claim that has been corroborated by many online user reviews! This is definitely a must-try.

Di sini tentunya aku gak lupa juga membagikan cara make up tersimple, cepat dan gak perlu ribet karena menggunakan produk #1SuperTap ini.

I did this full-makeup using Maybelline Super Cushion Ultra Cover as a makeup base with the help of Maybelline Fit Me concealer to cover my scars (yup, buat kalian yang jerawat dan punya dark circle parah, aku saranin pake concealer untuk menyamarkannya).

I can say it spreads and settles into an extremely natural finish that’s mostly matte, it feels comfortable and light on the skin, and its coverage is definitely decent considering it is a BB cushion. It lasts relatively long (around 6-14 hours) and I give you a tip for those who have oily skin, you’ll need some tissues to dab off the shine.

If you're on the hunt for an affordable, lightweight and medium-high coverage base, you can definitely check this out. It costs only IDR 259.000, you can buy it at Lazada Indonesia or Maybelline page. Last but not least, hopefully this look will inspire your Special day. See you in the next post

GARNIER MICELLAR OIL-INFUSED CLEANSING WATER

Tuesday, February 6, 2018

For the first time, Garnier Micellar technology is formulated with nourishing oils? Really? Micellar water with oil-infused? Oh how come?

I've been a fan of Micellar Water for a while (I have tried so many different brands). Personally, I love good micellar cleansing water for removing my makeup after a long day before cleansing my skin properly with my night skin routine. I’ve tried Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water before and but when Sociolla sent me the new version of Garnier Micellae water with argan oil, I'd love to try it. This Garnier Micellar Oil-Infused Cleansing Water is designed for dry and sensitive skin, which sounds ideal for my skin. The micelles (cleansing agents) capture impurities like a magnet & lift away dirt from the skin, whilst the oils instantly dissolve all types of make-up.

Is Micellar Oil-Infused Cleansing Water right for me?

This one with the oil will removes everything. Yeah, don’t let the oil-infused aspect put you off, I was initially skeptical that it may leave my skin greasy. But it didn’t :) Don't worry, the non-greasy formula is enriched with Argan oil and it can be used on even the most sensitive skin.

I note that there is fragrance added in the ingredients but I don’t find it particularly strong.

_______________________

Since this micellar oil-infused cleansing water is dermatologically tested and claiming to be soothing and to provide optimal tolerance I thought it would be gentle enough to use on my eyes.

I love using this for removing eye makeup. All I do is just quickly shake of the bottle to combine the oil with the micellar water, then soak a cotton pad with the cleanser. I hold a cotton pad over each eye for a few seconds, then I wipe away the makeup, gently wipe the lower lash line. I can say this is a holy grail, I mean it totally removes waterproof mascara and matte lipstick with ease. This Micellar Oil-Infused Cleansing Water has becomes my favourite go to eye makeup remover.

Garnier Micellar Oil-infused Cleansing Water just whips my makeup off with no effort at all. It does cleanse and soothe the skin on my face, eyes and lips in one step without the hassle of rinsing off.

Once again, I was a little hesitant to try this product due to the oil content because I hate the feeling of something sitting on top of it (like an oily residue). And again, I was impressed. My make up was removed quickly and easily and there was no residue left on my skin.

_______________________

Make sure you shake the bottle first, to mix the water with the oil to really allow the product to reach its full potential.

This product will remove even the most stubborn makeup, including the waterproof or long lasting type, it does such a fantastic job on my skin. Cleanse and nourish the feel of skin, in one step without rinsing. My skin felt so fresh and smooth after using this and my skin didn't feel oily at all.

All of my makeup (on a daily basis I tend to wear bb cream, blush on, bronzer, mascara, lipstick and eyebrow products) is totally removed with only 3-4 soaked pads.
