Etude House Dear Darling Neon Tint [review]

Welcome August!! This is my first post for this month \(^v^)/

Buat semua yang lagi berpuasa, semoga lancar-lancar sampai lebaran tiba ya :)

Today I'd like to introduce one of my must have item for Summer! (~￣▽￣)~

Yay for neon colors and tangerine~ ;D

So, this is Dear Darling Neon Tint from Etude House!

Descriptions

A gel type vivid neon tint that is moisturizing and stains lips for a long time.Tint contains ingredients that contain vitamins and amino acid: grapefruit extract, bamboo extract, and  Eastern Prickly Pear Extract. 

Packaging

Made from plastic. It has simple and cute design. I like its cute typography ^^

This packaging is not sturdy enough, so don't even try to throw away this product onto floor :p

3 variants color:

*01 Neon Orange

*02 Neon Pink

*03 Neon Magenta

 I got mine in Neon Orange! :3

Anyway, I didn't buy this tint.. I got it as giveaway prize last year ♥

Applicator

It has pointy applicator, for easier application. I have no problem while applying this tint :)

Texture & Durability

As it claimed before, it has gel texture. Not too watery yet nor thick ;)

It has good long-lastingness! You need lip remover to remove this lip tint

Swatch

Very bright and neon orange! xD I was afraid it will become so bright on my lips. BUT, everything going well when I only apply it slowly, layer by layer ;)

(concentrated to your inward lips)

Gradient Ulzzang Lips :D

this is how it looks

Sorry these photos were captured few months ago ;p I always forgot to post it hehe

See? I have bright and cheerful gradient ulzzang lips now! \(^∇^)/

What I love <3

+ Nice pigmentation

+ Good staining power

+ Nice scent! ♥

+ Perfect for summer
+ Blendable easily
+ Affordable (around IDR 65,000-75,000 if i'm not mistaken)

What I hate </3
- It dries my lips sometimes (don't forget to apply lip balm first!)

Rating: 4/5
Repurchase? Still dunno, since I'm barely use neon colors for daily makeup basis *-*
But it's a good product I think.

Hope you find this post is helpful! ^^/

Have a nice day everyone~~~

Talika Skin Retouch [review]

Sorry for those who have waiting for this review! (-___-")

End of 2012, I received this product from Talika Indonesia because I won their giveaway. 

What is this? It's SKIN RETOUCH from Talika. Talika is a skincare brand from Paris. At first, this brand is quite unfamiliar to my ears. When Talika is officially available in Indonesia last year, they kindly let us tried some sample products of them. I have tried their Talika Instant Manicure for beautiful and healthy nails :D

And few months ago, I also got a chance to try this Talika Skin Retouch ^^

Curious about this product?

For simple explanation: Talika Skin Retouch is instant anti-age corrector. 

Huh? What's that? o.O

Descriptions

Netto: 30 ml | Tube Applicator

Over time, the face loses its smoothness. The skin does not reflect light evenly anymore. The skin starts to look dull, tired and greyish. Skin Retouch Face acts as an instant corrector of time by playing smartly with light. The skin looks immediately younger.

Claims:

* Blurs fine lines and wrinkles

* Unifies and mattifies complexion

* Tightens pores

How does it works?

Streetch texture: smoothens skin by filling wrinkles, fine lines, porse and dehydrated lines, without clogging the skin. Mattifies and reduces shine.

Soft focus pigments: small pigments slip inside the wrinkles, fine lines and pores and the large ones cover imperfections on the surface to reflect light evenly. Through a brighter complexion, the face looks younger.

Directions for use:

1. Apply your usual skin care on cleansed skin

2. Apply SkinRetouch Face all over the face, smoothing, like a foundation, from the center of the face outwards.

3. How to use it in combination with make-up:

- Liquid foundations must be applied before SkinRetouch Face

- Powder must be applied on top of SkinRetouch Face.

For whom?

All who want an immediate solution for younger, smoother looking skin.

When:

- Every morning with or without makeup

- Anytime during the day, as a corrector

Sounds promising? *___*

This product could do "wonder" on our skin, just like photo retouch in Photoshop!

 Can be used for Face - Hands - Neck

Brightening & Anti-aging fluid

* Smoothing effect

* Evens & brightens tone

* Fills fine lines

Directions:

Apply to desired area, smoothing outwards from center. Let it dry completely before top it with powder.

descriptions in Bahasa Indonesia

Ingredients list & manufacture informations

Packaging

It's simple, elegant, not bulky. It has unique applicator and easy to use :D

It dominated with white color and made in plastic material

Applicator

Can you see the OFF & ON? You just need to twist the applicator into ON position to obtain the primer inside ^___^ And you should twist the applicator into OFF position to close the lid.

Squeeze it slowly, and you will see the soft primer starts to appear. Apply it with applicator directly onto your desired area (either face, neck or hand) and dab it slowly to blends well :) You only need pea size to cover small area on your face. 

In my case, I tend to use this instant-corrector to fills fine lines under my eye (★◡★)

Let's try it ;)

Can you see fine lines on my hands? I only applied pea size amount and blends it well. And taa-dahhh! The fine lines are less visible, looks smoother as it claims! ❤

The result when I applied it onto my under area.

On these photos, I only applied powder. The different is, I used SkinRetouch at second photo (*≧▽≦)ﾉ

Awesome, isn't it??

Thank you Talika for this opportunity ^^ I can see the result clearly! 

Overall, I'm so satisfied with this product ;)
