Looking Bold with Maybelline the Loaded Bolds

It's been a while since I get my hands on any Maybelline lippies product though I'd been a loyal customer of their other products, especially for their eyeliners. I personally think that Maybelline Indonesia is doing a great job lately by releasing bunch of new products. One of their latest are the 12 shades from the Loaded Bolds range. This is probably the most playful collection I'd ever seen from a drugstore brand since you could expect extreme and unusual color.

Innisfree No Sebum Powder Review

This is one of my best find in 2016 which I had mentioned here previously. I used to love loose powder back then as they are lightweight and but most of loose powder come in bulky packaging and not travel friendly. I'd read a lot of good reviews about Innisfree No Sebum Powder, especially for the oil control but again still hesitated to try. I got this powder simply because it was on sale when I was about to make purchase at one of local online store, so I actually had no plan or any big expectation for it. Perhaps fate has brought us together lol.

Innisfree No Sebum Powder comes in simple mint green packaging with a matte finish and pretty small if I would say. I like it since most of loose powder are quite bulky although in other words you'll get less amount of powder. There's a shifter and small puff included in it. The puff is a bit to thick for my liking as it's kinda stiff and hard to use so I usually stick with my powder brush.

What's on My Top List in 2016

I rarely make any best buy or best find product list. It's kinda hard to decide what is the best, simply because I'm easily bored and always tempted to try on new makeup items. So these items are probably my current fave that I would love to repurchase ... well if I didn't find a better replacement though hehe. Anyway, some of them are not new released item but oh well, who knows there are some people who aren't aware of these good things, just like me. I decided to do for the makeup category only as I haven't found my best skincare routine.

Witch's Pouch Easy Drawing Gel Eyebrow Review

Here is one of an interesting item I got from Althea earlier this year. Witch's Pouch Easy Drawing Gel Eyebrow. If you notice, I rarely use any brow products since I have pretty thick natural brows. I know brows are extremely essentials but I only fill in my brows when I wear full makeup. I usually use dark brown eyeshadow to fill them in therefore when I saw this product on Althea, I'm pretty excited because at the moment gel brow was such a hype.

Too Cool for School Art School Sfumato Review

I usually stick to my big palette when it comes to eyeshadow. Well by the time I'm writing this post, I just realised that I never purchased any palettes since my first one. I'm happy with my palette but as you could guess, big eyeshadow palettes ARE NOT travel friendly. I could not imagine myself carrying the palette inside my bag, not forget to mention the risk of these eyeshadows could be ruined at anytime. Therefore, I'm pretty excited when Charis let me try on this duo eyeshadow from Too Cool for School.

Wardah C-Defense DD Cream Review

Untuk aktivitas sehari-hari, aku termasuk yang jarang banget pakai make-up lengkap. Biasanya aku hanya mengandalkan BB Cream atau BB Cushion dan bedak terus pakai lipbalm atau lipstick supaya nggak terlihat pucat. Aku lebih prefer memakai BB Cream daripada foundation karena formulanya lebih ringan tapi tetap bisa membuat tampilan wajah terlihat fresh dan nggak kusam.

Seiring berjalannya waktu, trend BB Cream  mulai berkembang dengan munculnya kehadiran CC Cream dan DD Cream. Kebetulan, beberapa waktu yang lalu aku sempat dikirimi Wardah C-Defense DD Cream oleh Sociolla. Nah, ini pertanyaan yang paling sering muncul, apa sih bedanya DD Cream dengan BB dan CC Cream? Aku coba jelasin secara singkat ya.

BB Cream (Beauty Balm) adalah light makeup dengan kandungan skincare di dalamnya.
CC Cream (Color Correcting) adalah cream yang berfungsi untuk menyeimbangkan warna kulit yang kurang merata pada wajah, misalnya redness akibat jerawat atau warna skintone yang tidak merata.
DD Cream adalah singkatan dari Daily Defense atau Dynamic Do All. Biasanya DD Cream ini dilengkapi dengan SPF, anti-aging, dan lightening properties sekaligus punya coverage yang cukup baik. Seperti namanya, DD Cream ini bisa dibilang all in one product yang bisa digunakan setiap hari.

Berhubung aku juga belum pernah cobain DD Cream, aku juga lumayan penasaran deh. Salut banget untuk Wardah yang update dengan produk kosmetik masa kini.

Wardah C-Defense DD Cream ini dikemas dalam ukuran 20 ml. Lumayan kecil jadi cukup praktis untuk dibawa dan cocok buat yang baru mau coba-coba produk makeup. Seperti DD Cream pada umumnya, Wardah C-Defense ini merupakan kombinasi lightening, tabir surya, dan antioksidan untuk kulit tampak bercahaya dengan kandungan sebagai berikut :

• Vitamin B3 untuk membantu membuat kulit tampak cerah. 
• Vitamin E sebagai antioksidan.
• Allatoin untuk membantu regenerasi alami kulit. 
• SPF 30 untuk perlindungan optimal terhadap sinar UV. 

Wardah C-Defense DD Cream ini tersedia dalam dua pilihan warna yaitu Light dan Natural. Shade Light ini warnanya cocok banget di skintone aku dan setelah beberapa jam pemakaian, warnanya nggak berubah menjadi lebih gelap (oxidize).

Awalnya aku mikir coveragenya Wardah DD Cream ini bakalan light banget, ternyata coveragenya termasuk medium dan rasanya ringan jadi cocok banget untuk dipakai sehari-hari. Buat anak kuliahan atau yang masih sekolah, aku recommend banget untuk coba Wardah DD Cream ini. Kalau kalian butuh coverage lebih untuk daerah undereye atau bekas jerawat yang membandel, tinggal pakai concealer aja.

Sedikit kekurangannya buat aku adalah bagian tutup packagingnya cepet banget kelihatan kotor karena bagian ujung tubenya transparan dan creamnya sering ngumpul di bagian ujung tutupnya, jadi harus agak sering dibersihkan supaya nggak banyak gumpalan yang mengering di bagian tutupnya.

Overall, Wardah C-Defense DD Cream ini recommended banget untuk pemakaian sehari-hari. Harganya pun cukup terjangkau, kalau nggak salah sekitar Rp 30.000,00 saja. Cocok buat kalian yang punya dana terbatas untuk belanja makeup ataupun lagi mencari-cari base makeup yang cocok. Kalian bisa membeli Wardah C-Defense DD Cream ini di Sociolla dan jangan lupa untuk masukkan kode SBNLAD29 kalau belanja di Sociolla supaya dapat discount hehehe.

Bagaimana menurut kalian tentang Wardah C-Defense DD Cream ini? Ada yang sudah pernah mencoba juga?
