Beauty Appetite by Jessica Simon


Hi there beautiful!
If you followed my instagram, then you should have known that I bought me some The Balm products. I love their products, their retro packaging, cute names, oh I love everything about The Balm! I want fresh, youthful but also natural for my makeup this summer, that's why I got this blush called Frat Boy...


The Balm describes it as:
Talc-free, finely-graded powder formula adds just the right flush so you look pledge perfect around the clock.

You will get 8.5g of product for $21, which I think is a great deal, since it's a lot of product and it will last for a long time. The packaging is uber cute and unique! It's a flip compact made of cardboard case with magnetic closure and full size mirror, so thin and sleek! Unfortunately the brush or applicator is not included, so if you travel with this blush you have to bring your own brush.


Frat boy is a peachy pink shade, which is my favorite shade for blush hehe, I think this color is the perfect color for Asian skin tone, especially with yellow undertone. It has shimmer in it, but when you apply it onto your cheeks the shimmer transform into a beautiful sheen, because the shimmer isn't noticeable at all! I think the color is really versatile since it makes you look like you have natural flushed cheeks, but you can also build up the color if you want.


The consistency is really soft and easy to blend. The longevity is amazing, it stays all day long so I don't have to reapply or whatsoever, this is a huge deal for me since I don't bring my makeup every time, I only bring lip products with me and that's all.

The swatches:

Can't you just see how beautiful this blush looks? Ugh, so gorgeous! This is the only blush I've been using since I bought it. The pigmentation is awesome, easy to apply, easy to blend, and I can use this blush with so many different looks even with 'no makeup' makeup look! If you haven't tried out blushes from The Balm, I highly recommend you to get Frat Boy because it's a universal color :) Plus, because this blush has great color pay off, you can also use it as an eyeshadow as well.

Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $$$$$ ($21.00)
Size: 8.5g
Repurchase: YUP!

You're so lucky if you were born with full and thick lashes! I don't, and that's why I cheat with makeup. I mean I have eyebrows, but they're really sparse so I have to draw my eyebrows regularly. So today I'm going to show you how I draw my eyebrows with eyebrow pencil, I find this is the easiest way to draw your eyebrows even for beginner!

Products used:
* Etude House Drawing Eyebrow AD (Buy Now)
* NYX Full Coverage Concealer

Le before.

With your eyebrow pencil, make some lines on the inner part, outer part of your brows and the arch before filling in your eyebrows. Try to find the best eyebrow shape for your face, do some experiments and try some shapes to find the best one for you. Remember to use light hand when you draw, I normally don't draw my brows this dark, but for the sake of photography I drew them darker so you can see the lines easier.

Once you find the shape that you like, connect the lines that you've made earlier.

Then fill in your eyebrows, make sure there's no gap left behind.

With the spoolie brush attached with the Etude House eyebrow pencil, brush the brows thoroughly so there will be no hard edges.

If you want a super clean look, apply some concealer above and underneath your brows and blend well. This technique will make your eyebrows looking sharp and clean.

And this is the final look... Drawing eyebrows is actually easy once you find the best shape that suits your face, so do some experiments, you may find your best shape with trial and error method! Keep practicing and remember to draw it lightly :)

Another tips, choose eyebrow pencil that has the closest shade as your hair color. If you have dark hair, choose lighter shade and if you have light hair, choose darker shade. You can also use brow gel for the finishing as well! That's all my tips for today, I hope you find it helpful :)

Last week I visited Miracle Clinic to try their best selling treatment, the Diamond Peel Plus. I've heard so many great things about this clinic and also their treatments. Miracle Clinic has so many branches all over Indonesia, there are three branches in Jakarta, they're in Kemang, Taman Anggrek Mall, and Kelapa Gading. I went to Taman Anggrek Mall because its the nearest one from my house!

Miracle Clinic
Taman Anggrek Mall - 1st Floor Block 16A
Jl. Letjen S. Parman Kav. 21
Jakarta 11470 - DKI Jakarta
Tel: 021-5639266


The place is actually much bigger than I expected, because it's located in a mall, I thought the place was going to be cramped. Miss Beatrix (Marcomm Manager of Miracle Clinic), the one I took picture with, said that Taman Anggrek branch is the smallest one of all branches in Jakarta, but I think the place is nice, cozy and also busy too!! People come and go all the time, the place was packed with visitors!

All the rooms are so clean and hygienic!
Getting ready to get the treatment but first............


I got no makeup on, only drew my eyebrows and put some lip balm. I was going to clean my face for the treatment anyway, there was no need to put makeup on heheh.


What is Diamond Peel Plus?
A mechanical peeling that combines microdermabrasion with dermal infusion. Microdermabrasion aims to remove dead skin cells using a diamond tips, while aiming to enter the dermal infusion solution that is suitable with skin problems.

Skin problems that can be resolved:
* Dry skin and wrinkles 
* Large pores
* Reduce acne and acne scars 
* Reduce hyper pigmentation or blemishes

Major advantages of Diamond Peel Plus:
The treatment process is relatively short, visible results, no pain, and it doesn't cause injury.


Moving on to the Diamond Peel Plus treatment, there are some steps to be done, from cleansing, toner, serum, moisturizer then lastly sunblock. The steps are pretty much the same with our skincare regimen, but Miracle uses high tech machine to improve dull skin, hyper pigmentation, acne scars, and also lifts your skin. Basically the machine works to peel dead skin cells and inject serum to our skin.

So first thing first I got my face cleaned up from makeup and dirt, the therapists always wash their hands and spray antiseptic solution before touching your face. Cleanliness: check! All the hair cap and sponge that's used to clean your face are disposable, so they always use new products for every customer. Sanitation: check!

Le before treatment


The therapist will also take your photos so you can see the before and after treatment for yourself! Usually the Doctor will do half of your face first so you can see the difference.


Dr. Jill was checking on my skin, my skin problem is hyper pigmentation and dull skin, she said I have to use sunblock regularly, then I was like 'She knows I rarely use sunblock!! O_O' hahahah! So this treatment can be used for different types of skin problem, its because the doctor will check your skin first, and give you the serum depending on your skin needs, the one that I need is for clarifying and brightening, you may need different types of serum that suits your skin.


The machine will always be sterilized first before use. It is really important, because most clinics do not really care about hygiene and sterility of the tools and materials used. HIV and hepatitis can be transmitted through sponge, therapists or customers hands, extractor and tools (e.g. needles) used. This can occur due to contact of the tools with bleeding, or blood or serum that may come out on the extraction of blackheads.

Miracle Clinic has Miracle Sterilization Program that provides protection for the customers in order to avoid the transmission of HIV and hepatitis by using equipment that is sterilized by autoclave (sterilization according international standards) that used in hospital. Sterilization: check!

Then the treatment began:

At first I was a little bit scared, because facial is always painful right? But I was wrong! It wasn't hurt at all! No injury! No redness! No pain! I was impressed!!! Beauty is pain is not valid anymore...


You can see a visible result after one treatment, your skin will become clearer and brighter after a single treatment! Dr. Jill worked really fast, she's so experienced and kind, she also treated my neck so my face and neck wouldn't look patchy hahaha.


After the treatment was completed, I saw the result and here is my reaction:

My reaction was real, I wasn't faking it at all, I just couldn't believe my eyes!! My skin was brighter and clearer instantly!! I know the treatment is a bit expensive, but it worth every penny!! Plus all the tools are so hygienic, I don't mind paying a little bit more to get the best result for my self, I mean we're talking about skin here, our skins are our assets and investments, right girls? ;)

My glowing skin!!!

It really brightened up my skin!! LOVES IT!!


I recommend the Diamond Peel Plus treatment for those of you who really care about your skin, especially if you need to take care of your skin before special events like birthday parties, weddings, anniversaries and stuffs like that. Because you get an instant result after the treatment, it removes dead skin cells and blemishes, it brightens up your skin without making your skin looks red or anything like that. Normally, when you get facial, your skin will injured, hurt and also become red, but not anymore, we should thank technology for this! Make sure to give it a try if you haven't already :D

Hi dolls!
This is the third product of Sulwhasoo that I've been trying out... I've already reviewed the first two, which are the First Care Activating Serum and Essential Firming Cream. These there came in a set called Holiday Essential Sharing Set, they're smaller than the regular sizes, but perfect if you've been wanting to try out their products but not sure which one to get.

The packaging is made from plastic and comes with a secure lock so you don't have to worry it will spill all over when you bring this product when traveling. It comes with a pump, but most of the cleansing oil from other brands also come in pump bottles, so there's nothing new or fancy about the packaging.


Some details about Gentle Cleansing Oil from Sulwhasoo:
A cleansing oil that gently removes makeup residue and skin impurities. White Birch promotes the skin's natural circulation and turnover cycle to restore a healthy glow. Spreads smoothly over the skin to remove makeup and pore-clogging impurities. Delicate enough to be used around lip and eye area.

If you've never used cleansing oil before, I recommend you to try it! Because it's the best way of cleaning makeup in my opinion. Even though the name is cleansing oil, it can be used for all skin types, even if you have oily skin, I mean I also have oily skin but I never got any problem using cleansing oil so you don't have to be scared of using cleansing oil :) And next, the consistency isn't as thick as oil but more watery, so all you have to do is take about two pumps onto your palms then massage your whole face with the product gently.

You can clean your eye makeup using cleansing oil as well, so its like killing two birds with one stone because you don't have to clean your eyes and face separately HAHAHAH. After you finish massaging your face, rinse off with water then you can continue washing your face with your regular facial wash.

So in the pictures below, I had my BB Cream, eyeliner, blush, bronzer, lipgloss and also waterproof mascara and I tried to remove them with Gentle Cleansing Oil.


You can see that the product worked amazing, it cleaned up all of the makeup I applied on my hand, even WATERPROOF mascara can be removed using this cleansing oil! This cleansing oil is really gentle on the skin, not making my skin feels dry or uncomfortable, it doesn't break me out or anything. If you wear sunblock or makeup everyday, you need something extra to remove your sunblock or makeup, and if you never tried cleansing oil before, I really recommend to give this product a try! There's no sticky feeling at all, but the best way of cleaning makeup :)

You can get Gentle Cleansing Oil at Sulwhasoo counters:
1. Seibu - Grand Indonesia, Jakarta
2. Sogo - Plasa Senayan, Jakarta

Rating: ★★★★★
Price: $$$$$ ($36.00)
Size: 200ml

BONNE NUIT!

When you live in a tropical country like Indonesia, everyday feels like Summer. All you want to wear is short shorts, mini dress or any other lightweight clothing. However, I really enjoy the weather, I enjoy the sunshine, even the hot breeze in the afternoon.

Have you every been in a tropical country before?
