[REVIEW] Slushy Peppermint Hair Treatment from @prettyrecipe and Mane n Tail update

Hi there!

I want to share a review about this handmade hair product from @prettyrecipe 


Just like the shop's name it's so pretty!

This is an Organic Peppermint Hairmask, that is perfect for people like me who have dandruff problem ,itchy scalp and oily hair :')


The texture is easily absorbed in your hair, the smell is very subtle and nice <3

I have used it for 2 weeks, the first time i used this, gosh...i feel so refreshed! the minty feeling from the product is very relaxing and refreshing i love it!

Now if you haven't tried applying a hair mask on your own here's a few step that i usually do:
1. Wash your hair untill it's clean

2. Dried you clean hair with towel until the water top dripping and your hair is half dry

3. Comb your hair with a wide toothed comb, this is important to prevent hair-loss, make sure your hair is untangled

4. Apply the product, since this product is for my scalp, i apply it to my scalp and hair, but if you're using a hair mask for softening your hair then just apply it on your hair,don't apply it on your scalp because it could make your scalp damp,and lots of bacterias could appear and you could get dandruff too...

5. After you applied enough product, wrap your hair with warm towel for 15-20 minutes (usually i play games when applying hair mask and ended up leaving it for hours...luckily it didn't cause bad effect...i think...but it's better just leave it 15-20 minutes)

6. Last step is to wash all the product off, now this product didn't give that super cold cooling effect when you wash it off, but it gives a very soothing cooling effect, VERY refreshing after it's all gone, my hair feels squeaky clean and my head feel sooo refreshed~ 

After all the product is off i usually just dried my hair, but since this is peppermint it kinda made my dry hair even drier so i use conditioner again then dry my hair with  hair dryer :) the result after 2 times of using the product? No more dandruff baby! And my scalp is healthier and no longer oily not itchy :3
Nooo dandruff!! :')

Definitely gonna buy this product again! You can get it at @prettyrecipe!

And a little update for Mane n Tail!

Today is already 2 weeks since i tried the Mane n Tail shampoo n conditioner, i have at least used them 7-8 times already and i can see the improvement!


(Pardon the pale face, got insomnia from browsing too much 9gag)

 Yeah my hair gained more volume than before and it's no longer easily tangled! My hair also definitely look healthier and my hair loss is also slowly reducing... I really recomend this product for people with troubled hair, it's not magically turn your hair healthy instantly but this product surely gives results!

I already pre order my next bottle, because i don't think i want to switch to other shampoo anymore :3 totally recomended!

[REVIEW] Victoria's Secret Glam and Go Portable Make Up Kit

Hello again!

Today i want to write a review for the Victoria's Secret Glam and Go Make Up Kit!


This baby has 4 set of 4 eyeshadows, 1 gel eyeliner 1 blush, and 2 applicator for eyeshadow gel eyeliner and blush, that could help you get the "Must Have Looks" from Victoria's Secret


It contains 4 types of colour "theme" that is perfect for a natural look to party look


At the bottom of the box, there are holes that can be used to poke the make up kit out so you can put it on the portable kit :3

Okay! So, today i want to try this natural purple-brown kit:


It contains:

- Soft pink blush
- A gel eyeliner
- Champange colored eyeshadow
- Pale pink shimmering eyeshadow(that looks white in the picture)
- Lavender colored eyeshadow
- Dark brown eyeshadow
- Natural pink lipstick


The eyeshadow swatches~ i didn't use primer because i want to see how pihmented they are, so far, not dissapointed but not impressed either


The blush's swatch such a shy looking pink <3


The eyeliner, aww the color is not pigmented, and the liner is kinda hard too, but the gel eyeliner aplicator is the softest of them all...it beat my bobby brown's gel eyeliner, seriously,buying bobbi brown's gel eyeliner brush is a waste of money, it poke my eyes and feel itchy, i will never buy the gel liner brush from bobbi brown ever again!

Opps sorry for getting out the track,i really held my grudge for bobbi brown hahahha


And finally the lipgloss! Pretty huh? But if you think it'll give the same result on you lips then you'll be highly dissapointed for the gloss is not pigmented :')

Now this is the finished look from the kit, i didn't use any primer, because i want to see how pigmented they are, voila!


And a closer look

Not too bad~

See? Told ya the gloss is not pihmented :') but it still give a gorgeous glow though

I thought the blush won't give much color to my cheek but turns out it did! A very natural pink~ me likey~

The blush aplicator is so soft too!

I really like this kit, so easy to take and it's great for daily make up too!

I'm going to try all the color of course!
But not today, for i have to go with my mom
Stay
 tune for the continuation ;)

[REVIEW] Mane n Tail Shampoo and Conditioner

Hi guys!

Today i want to write a review aboit this mane n tail shampoo+consditioner, i have a very dry hair, with dandfruff problem, hair loss and oily scalp... Yes a very teribble hair condition... Probably it's because i dyed my hair a lot in the pasy :) I haven't find a shampoo that can help my hair n scalp problem, i've used cheap shampoos to expensive ones... And none of them gave anu differences, i used selsin a couple of time, but it only made my hair dry... Sure, my scalp is better...but my hair is super dry....

Then i googled and found out about this Mane n Tail shampoo which a lot of people claims to work very well on their hair, made their hair stronger and thicker(i assume it's because the hair is now healthier?) and also help oily scalp n dandruff, so i tried it... I bought them from an online shop from instagram...and i got fooled.... I'm so sad...and dissapointed i paid like Rp.70.000 more expensive than the usuall price... Oh well i won't buy from that shop again....

So this is the shampoo and conditioner that i bought:


Tadaaa

For the shampoo i bought the herbal gro one and the conditioner is the original one, the herbal shampoo is for damaged hair and troubled scalp which also help make you hair healthier and stronger

The conditioner is well as usual, to make you hair smoother and more nourished :D

Now let's start with the shampoo review:

You know how there's always 2 types of shampoo? The one that has very little foam and easy to rinse but makes your hair dry, and the one with too many foam and makes your scalp too moist and making dandruff easier to appear but soften your hair? Well this shampoo is the combination of the two with bonus! When i first apply it, i can feel the product is very soft and i can feel it just get absorbed in my hair, i used the shampoo mostly on my scalp then i just mix in my hair and i can barely find the foam, which is nice because it's easier to clean, and after i rinse i felt that my scalp is much more cleaner and the shampoo didn't make my hair tangled too~

The smell is not too strong and it smelled like herbal...well duh...but i meant it really smell kinda like a herbal medicine but nicer, the colour of the liquid is clear blue, so pretty~

So far i have used this shampoo twice and i can see and feel that this shampoo made my hair look better, didn't easily get oily, didn't easily got tangled, feel softer and my scalp is not too itchy anymore, i feel the dandruff is not really visible anymore and made my scalp is not too dry but not too moist too so yeah bottom line, despite the online shop owner that kinda robbed me by over pricing the shampoo i like this shampoo,even only after 2 times of using i'm sure i will buy this shampoo again in the future...but not on that online shop though...


Now for the conditioner!

Gosh, this conditioner is also great! It's the same as the shampoo, it's easy to rinse and made my hair softer and keeps feeling softer even after 2 days, not magically rapunzel soft, but softer, as in no longer tangled hair when brushing :D

So far this conditioner is the mos easiest to rinse than my other conditioner, which is very hard to rinse, and soften my hair in the beginning but after a day my hair came back to dry n tangled again *sigh* 

The conditioner smells better than the shampoo, the scent is floral very mice scent :3

i'm looking forward to finish both of the the product, i want to see if this product can make my thick and healthy hair back and also help my damaged and troubled hair n scalp, so far this product amuse me...i hope i will get good result! And i will give the picture of the before and after, later when i finished my first bottle, and update my review! ;D

[REVIEW] EOS Lip Balm Spring Edition

Wohoo!!! Finally after waiting 2 months in line for these limited edition lipbalm from EOS the finally arrived on my door! 


Boom! Arrived save n sound thanks zatura shop u da bomb!


The description~
It's 100% natural and 95% organic....when i knew this i was like..."nuff said...shut up and take my money!" I'm a sucker for natural and organic stuff :3 I feel more saver using natural n organic skin care n make up

 
I tried the passion fruit first because....well it's the reason i bought it! Limited edition flavour baby!(yeah i'm a sucker for limited edition too...)

So the review:

The balm....feels great... It's very different from all the balm i've used, it didn't have that oily and sticky kinda feely u know? I feel...moist that's all... I like it!

I wasn't expecting any difference at all when i took the pics but there actually are! Hey my lips actually looks better in the bottom pic!(after using the balm)


 The smell is nice and it's not too strong, and when i accidentally lick my lips, i didn't taste a very fruity flavoyr, just a hint of sweetness which is nice...and again very different from other lip balms which has strong scent and flavour, which is comparable to candies...-_-

The design is also so very cute! And easy to use :3

Well this is my first time using this balm and i like it already! I hope these balm can help my dry lips O:)

Anybody had tried this too?

[REVIEW] Babyliss Pro Mira-Curl

Hey there!
So this is a short review and tutorial for the Hottest Curling Iron(or maybe machine) Babyliss Pro Mira-Curl!!! I totally LOVE this baby man! 



So cool, no more burnt by curling iron, no more sore arms from holding the curl too long, no more being carefull when curling hair ah I LOVE THIS! 

Thank you soo much to my mom's friend for this :D thx aunty Grace! 

Review: it's super easy to use, it took a while for the machine to heat up though so be patient :) there are 3 level for heat low-medium-high whichi i love, usually for heating i go straight to high then middle just so it heat up faster and my hair is not too hot

And there are settings for styilng hair based on the texture,

375* setting 1 for fine hair
410* setting 2 for normal hair
45o* setting 3 for thick hair

by using those settings then it'll be quicker to heat the curl  

i made a short video for my instagram review but  can't upload it here :( you can check it on my instagram @jacq_tanoto if you want :D follow me and i'll follow you back! ^^

 and here are some screen shots that i took from the video :D





So to use the Mira-Curl:

1. we have to make sure that our hair is not tangled, so really comb it until all the hair is untangled, or else your hair could get tangled inside the machine...and u don't want that....it hurts...trust me

2. we have to wait for the red light at the handle stop flashing, that's the time for the machine to heat up

3. take a little part of your hair and put it between the machine with the hot circle facing inside

4. wait for 5 beeps and voila!!! A gorgeous curls, just like how the pro made them!

FAKE ETUDE HOUSE BB CREAM ALERT!

Hi guys, i was checking some posts in instagram and i realized that lately, there have been a lot of online shops selling a fake bb cream from etude house:



This is NOT a product from Etude House it's fake, the back has a lot of korean words too but i can guarantee this is fake, don't believe me?



That is the real product that the culprit took the design from, it's from It's Skin brand from korea NOT Etude House

Still don't believe me? Here are the screen capture from Etude House Official Website the KOREAN version so there is no excuse like "Oh maybe the product is not yet updated" pfft!! please.... 


Can u find it?


Of course you can't, cuz that product is FAKE

Nobody except god and the culprit knows what that bb cream is made from, usually when someone decided to just use a famous brand for their fake cosmetic, rather than using their own brand and sign it up to BPOM, is because they want their product to sell by claiming it's from famous brand but usually the ingredients is most definitely dangerous, and or illegal, it could make your face got serious problem even skin cancer! 

Please spread this post so people will know! One share could save a million skin! You can also repost my post from instagram @jacq_tanoto so more people knows!
