Beauty Appetite by Jessica Simon

Twelfth post of the month! Am I on fire or what hahaha, I haven't posted this many posts in a month since last year :O I've just been in a really good mood lately, that's why I'm really productive this month of June! I hope this will continue for at least the rest of the year hehe.

I just want to share my #OOTD here, nothing serious...
Hardware dress, New Look shoes, Miss Lie bag

If you didn't know already, Miss Lie Collection also sells fashion stuffs like this cute tote bag in affordable price. My code 'BEAUTYAPPETITE' will also work for fashion, and not only for beauty products (for free shipping all over Indonesia) if you're interested.

XOXO

How's your weekend so far beautiful people! :D
Today I want to talk about something different, it's about birthstone. I really find it interesting to find your birthstone and know the meaning of it. Birthstone is a certain gem that is associated with the time in which a person is born.
There are twelve different kind of birthstone with different meanings.
January Garnet - Faith, love, constancy
February Amethyst - Peace, temperance, serenity, royalty
March Aquamarine - Youth, love, hope
April Diamond - Purity, innocence, eternity, courage
May Emerald - Fertility, rebirth, love
June Pearl - Chastity, modesty
July Ruby - Harmony, peace
August Peridot - Beauty, strength, morality
September Sapphire - Dignity, loyalty, serenity, faith, purity and wisdom
October Opal - Faithfulness, confidence
November Citrine - Love, affection
December Blue Topaz - Good fortune, success
Some facts about birthstones:
  1. According to legends, wearing a gemstone during its assigned month heightens its healing power
  2. Gemstones are believed to offer various healing benefits to their wearers

Shoes from Sammy Dress
I was born in February, so my birthstone is Amethyst. I got this birthstone ring from Soufeel that offers silver accessories in very affordable price! All items are in great quality too.

I never put the ring off after I got it. The size is perfectly fit, and since it's made in silver, I don't have to worry about allergy (some people have alloy/nickel allergy), or the colour fading.
I've been obsessed with thin necklace lately, so I also got one from Soufeel. Do check them out if you're looking for rings, necklaces, charms, bracelets, earrings, etc.

Use this code 'Simon5' for 5% off your purchases (Valid until 20th August 2015).
So, what is your birthstone? :)

XOXO

I finally had time to sit and blog about one fine night that I spent with Close Up! So as you had known already, Close Up had launched their newest toothpaste, Diamond Attraction couple months ago. This product is really intriguing because it claims to make teeth whiter after one application!!



Close Up Diamond Attraction is equipped with Bluelight Technology that will coat the teeth and act as an optical fiber that balances reflected light teeth, so that the light reaching the eye will make teeth appear whiter. If used regularly twice a day can make teeth look more natural white gradually.

This year, Close Up has became the official smile partner of the biggest fashion contest in Asia, no other that Asia's Next Top Model (Cycle 3)! I don't know about you, but I've been watching AsNTM since the first season!! So it was really really exciting for me to meet the head judge and host of AsNTM3....


...the gorgeous Georgina Wilson! In one of the episode, the contestants had to do Selfie Smile and Diamond Smile challenges. So apparently, smile is something important in fashion and beauty industry, especially in this era where we snap and post everything online. And as a blogger, I've had some thoughts of whiten my teeth for a bunch of times, it's not that my teeth look bad or anything, but who doesn't want pearly white teeth anyway?

In the AsNTM3, Indonesia sent 3 representatives, and I've loved Ayu Gani from the very first episode, she has a very unique look and she did really well in the competition! She's my favourite from all these three seasons so far! So I was excited to see her in person as well :)


Though Gani didn't win any of the Selfie Smile and Diamond Smile challenge, it's because she thought she wouldn't look good smiling because she has small eyes, and every time she smiles, her eyes will be completely gone hahaha, but she thought that white teeth can boost up her confidence :) I  was looking forward to try it out!

Weren't they all look great? :)

I hope we also looked as great haha! With Thea & Gita

The dress code was sparkling blue, so I had to wear Jenn's most sparkling jacket as an outer hahaha. And I think I was the most 'sparkling' one there #followtherules


And finally a pic with Gani. How come she was so afraid that her smile would be bad for the photoshoot, she has a very nice smile :) I was so happy for her being on top! I literally screamed a bit when I watched the season's finale hehe, I'm so proud that Indonesia could finally win the title! #IndonesiaOnTop


Just so you know, I've been using Close Up as my toothpaste for decades now, and I can only use Close Up haha. After I got the new Diamond Attraction toothpaste, I tried it out once I got home, and I've been using it every since. I won't say that my teeth become whiter after single application, and it's only because I don't compare before and after I brush my teeth. But I do notice that my teeth have became whiter day by day, so I'll keep using it for better result. Have you tried Close Up Diamond Attraction? :)

I just finished the last episode of Game of Thrones (Season 5). A little bit late, and I've seen all the spoilers everywhere, so I wasn't really shocked about the ending. Thanks to everyone who shared spoilers after they watched it! *sarcasm*

And now I have to wait for the next season, which will be aired next year. Do you have any shows recommendation for me while I'm waiting for Sherlock, Walking Dead and Game of Thrones? Do let me know! ;)


I've uploaded some of these photos on my Instagram account already couple weeks ago. Yes I'm more updated on Instagram, so follow me there if you haven't already! It's 'sijessie' :)

Top from Bangkok, Uniqlo pants, DressV sandals

Cheer Up!

I didn't know if I should call this a mini facial day, because I got a complete treatment from L'Occitane! So I went to Plaza Indonesia where they were having L'Occitane Pivoine Indulgence Day, using their new collection Pivoine Flora and Pivoine Sublime :)


My skin was cleaned up by the therapist because I had makeup on that day, and also to remove dirts and oil from my face. Then the new skincare regimen was applied on my skin, I always love how all L'Occitane products smells good, this set smells floral but not too overwhelming.



Pivoine Sublime Set:
  • Skin Tone Perfecting Cream (CC Cream)
  • Perfecting Cream
  • Skin Perfector
  • Perfecting Mist
  • Tinted Lip Balm

And I was also given a makeover too! :D L'Occitane really knows how to treat women well.

Thick and strong eyebrows for the day, do you think it suits me?

Redid my hair.

Done with the makeup and hair! What do you think? ;)


I'm going to review the L'Occitane Pivoine set later, so stay tune for that! ;)

XOXO

* This is not a beauty-related post *

It was half past eight in the morning and I was getting ready to work. I went inside my car to start it up, but the engine wouldn't start. I tried to turn it off and on again for couple times before realising that it wouldn't help at all. My dad had already went out hours before, so I got no help. All I could think of was why did it happen when I was going to work and how I was going to be late for work.

Couple minutes later my mom showed up and offered to drive me to work, I agreed. On the way I was still annoyed that it happened to me. Once I arrived at work, I IM-ed my dad and told him about the trouble I had that morning.

He didn't reply anything but thanking God that it happened to me at home, in the morning, before work. I was still looking for some answer of what he meant, until he continued that he was thankful because it didn't happened when I was on the way to work, or later at the office when I was going back home.

This is just a really simple thing that happen to me recently. And how it really changed my way of viewing my own life. I may have been complained, frustrated, annoyed too much by small things that happen everyday, but I never really cared the other side of the story.

Later that day, my mom also said the same thing to me, she thanked God that it happened at home, she said it would had been troublesome if it happened anywhere but home. Ahh, I wish I also have their kind of point of view :)


P.S. Turned out, the problem was the battery. But we've had it changed and now the car works perfectly normal.


GOOD NIGHT!

I received a package from Laure Lash last month, there were two pairs of beautiful lashes in it. Laure Lash is a new fake lashes brand from Indonesia, one of the founders is an active makeup artist, so she must've known what kind of fake lashes are best for Indonesians. The fact that this is a local brand makes it more exciting for me, if you didn't know already, Indonesia produces great false eyelashes, you can get high quality products with competitive price. Make sure to remember this when you're doing your makeup shopping :)

I don't wear fake lashes on my daily basis, I wish I had time to do it every morning though. I used to apply tons of mascara everyday couple years ago, but I had given up on mascara since I have sparse, short and think lashes, using eyelash curler and applying mascara didn't seem to be the answer. That's why I had eyelash extension couple months ago, that lasted for couple of weeks but need to be touched up every two weeks or so. Wearing fake lashes is the easiest solution, I can wear them whenever I want, they're easy to apply and don't harm my real lashes at all.

Daphne

I prefer my lashes to look natural, I only use them on the weekend when I have to attend some events, meetings or just hanging out with my friends, that's why I chose Daphne and Peneus. Daphne seems to be the most natural pair from Laure Lash, if I'm not wrong. It gives you a bit length, but not over the top, but it's not super thick so you can use it on daily basis if you want.


All lashes from Laure Lash have flexible clear bands, and that's what I love about it! You can wear them with or without eyeliner, though I don't really recommend it haha. The size of the lashes is perfect for my eyes, not too short and not too long that I have to cut them shorter to fit my eyes.

Peneus

After seeing this pair, then you must've known what kind of lashes is my favourite: longer at the middle part to create bigger and round effect to the eyes. Peneus is a bit longer than Daphne, but not too much, it looks flirty because it's thicker, but still looks natural in my opinion ;)


Actually Laure Lash has many different type of lashes, that will suit your glamour look for night and natural look for day. All of the lashes are reusable, and I've used my Daphne for at least 3 times now, but it's still in very good shape! The lashes are so comfortable even if I layer my lashes if I want thicker and voluminous eyelash.

Side-by-side:

Just so you know, every pair of lashes from Laure Lash, you'll also get an eyelash glue in the box. I usually don't like eyelash glue that comes in fake lashes, but this glue is pretty good actually, I never experience my fake lashes falling out, once you put the lashes on, it STAYS on!

I've never done any one brand makeup tutorial before, because I always use different makeup brands, but it doesn't hurt to try, right? So I decided to make a blogpost review about SilkyGirl products today, I've uploaded the tutorial couple days ago on YouTube (make sure to follow me there so you won't miss any video posts!). All of these SilkyGirl products were given to me at #ClozettersMeetUp in May earlier. We were taught how to do simple video makeup tutorial, and I did it! :)
SilkyGirl BB Brightening 2-Way Foundation (Natural)
When I first tried it, I didn't realise that it's actually a foundation powder! I had applied my BB Cream before using this product, but it works well too. If you use the sponge, you'll get higher coverage, so I use a powder brush instead to get lighter coverage. It has separate compartment for sponge that makes it hygienic, and big ass mirror which is perfect for touch up on the go!
SilkyGirl Blockbuster Color Palette
This is my favourite of all. This quad has four neutral colours that'll look good on all skin tones. It has highlighter, all over shadows and shading colour. What I love the most about this quad is because the colour isn't too glittery. I'm not saying that the colours are totally matte, but it's really presentable for day, and the colours can be built up for a night look.

SilkyGirl Eye Opener Waterproof Mascara 
In case you didn't know, I like mascara with rubber bristles because it does the best job for volumizing and lengthening my short and thin lashes. Do zigzag motion from the roots to the end while applying mascara for a good result. This mascara helps my lashes stay up all day all night without using any eyelash curler.

SilkyGirl Blusher (Nectar Blush)
This has been my most used blush this month! I love the colour so much, because it really complements my skin tone. Though I don't use the applicator, because I always use my usual blush brush, but the mini blush is convenient for touch ups too, unfortunately it doesn't have any mirror in it. The blush doesn't really show up well, but you can always build up the colour, however I think it's the perfect blush for any newbies in makeup because you don't have to worry to make a mess on your face hehe.

Here's a video showing you how I use all the products:
