Jakarta Fashion Week 2016 - TXID by Tex Saverio

Finally after almost a year, I able to post a new post on my blog!
Here is freedom..
I finished my internship, study and waiting for my graduation ceremony in December!


I got invitation for Tex Saverio Fashion Show at the 1st day on Jakarta Fashion Week 2016!
I'm super excited to got the invitation and it was an honor for me to attend His Show

The show started on 8.30 PM , Saturday 24.10.15 based on the schedule

Since I want to avoid heavy traffic because of the JFW so I decided to went there earlier and got there around 5 PM. Then just strolling around the Senayan City mall until 7 PM and went to Fashion Tent to got my invitation.




Details of my outfit:



Floral Peplum Top : Bought in Bangkok
Lace Skirt : Gowigasa
Bag : Mango
Shoes : Payless

And here the story goes,
I waited and queue there for almost 3 hours. 
First, the gate keeper said the Tex Saverio's show will be started after the other 2 shows and started on 9 PM.

Around 8 PM I started to queue and the gate keeper said waited for another shows finished.
And at 8.30 PM I saw people started to queue and I also did that.
The 1st gate opened around 9 PM, the 2nd gate just 10 mins later, the 3rd gate opened around 9.45 PM! (because the shows before TXID haven't finished yet)

I was so tired for waiting that long without having a seat and my feet felt aching due to standing too much with my 7cm heels

But on the 3rd gate (the one who enter the runway venue) they provided a lot of pastries from Harvest Cake and Mineral Water from Aqua Sparkling Water
I really tempted to eat fews since I haven't had dinner yet and love desserts also felt really thirsty but I didn't want to got away from my queue since I already in the front section :p

When I entered the runway venue I try to got seat not to far but yeah, I got seat on B section row 4. After a while I realized the designer Himself, Tex Saverio, was sat 2 rows in front of me!!!

I felt so curious about TXID, the 3rd line of ready-to-wear from Tex Saverio who launched at JFW 2016

When the show started I felt a bit surprised since Tex Saverio design has characteristic of Theatrical, Dramatic and Spectacular, and I didn't found that in his TXID line.

Why?
Because all the clothes are simple, edgy, casual and more into street style not like his previous line.
but still the designs are really great and still have his characteristic but more minimalist.
 I even want to have fews for myself! 

I can't get a proper shoot of the TXID by Tex Saverio ready-to-wear clothing line from the shows since the staff prohibited me to use DSLR.
I got videos from my digital camera but yeah the quality isn't really good and too bad it can't be upload (dunno why)
so, I'll just take a few pics from other source

Do u recognize something different from Tex's new clothing line beside the design like I said before?
The clothes not only for woman but unisex! Do u see all the models not using high heels instead of sandals and Doc Marten?

I heard this clothing line is more affordable since the target market for this line is the teenager around 18 years old

After the show ended, I able to snapped a photo together with Tex Saverio!
It such a honor for me to be able met him in person since I am his fans since 4 years ago and adore his creation so much!



Well, I must said the shows was hit a great success and my all my efforts (for skipped dinner, aching feet, and waited for that long) were paid off .
I do really wish a great success for the sales of TXID by Tex Saverio



See u on another post,

XOXO

Dueba Lucia Lens Review

Holla~! Happy December, peeps!
This is my fav month of the year. I think most of people like this month too hehehe

So, today I'll review about Dueba Lucia Lens!
Truthfully I never use circle lens before although I really wanted to use it 
since I was in Junior High, but I scare because I think it really hard to put it on and take it off.

But now I tried to use it and holla! I can use it although still not expert and 
spent a lot of time to put it and take it off.


So, here is the packaging look like. It came with a box like this
as you can see the exp is 1 year after you opened it


As you can see above, this lens is made from Korea with Diameter 14.5 mm 
which is normal size and  the water contain is 38% which is also normal.
Well, actually the more percent water contain, it will better so your eyes will not dry and iritation.
But since it's normal so I think it doesn't matter


Yes, I bought the black color because I want to make my eyes look bigger and look like a doll!
And because I'm not quite sure the minus and cylinder of my eyes 
so I bought the normal one which is no minus.


The back of box written all the caution



Check the sticker when you purchased it. Return it to the store if the sticker is already opened.
Well, FYI I bought this on Qoo10 and it only cost me 40k! So cheap right?


This is how the packaging of lens look like
Each of this contain 1 lens


It also comes with the lens case and as you can see, I already put my lens there

I use this lens rarely. I only use this when I go out to mall and yes, I still not comfortable and feel that something into my eyes but I love use this lens because it didn't make my eyes dry or irritation.

And here is my look after put the lens. TA-DA!




Can you tell the different?



The left eyes, I dont use lens but I use on the right one.
See the different? :D

See you on other post!
XOXO,
Ellen

Sugar Pot Green Tea Review

I'm pretty sure most of Indonesian People know this product.
Yes, It is Sugar Pot!



This product is booming on Instagram for a year, I think?
And I owned this for half a year but havent use the chocolate one.

This product help us to remove unwanted hair by sugaring (it is like waxing). This product is made from natural ingredients without any chemical so it is safe to use for normal skin or sensitive skin.

I use to wax my leg with this product and I would like to say this is really easy to use and effective.
But when I try to use this for my armpit, it not really effective (maybe I use this wrong! :p)
For the smell, I really like it because It smell like honey with green tea (for the green tea flavour)
and the chocolate one really smell like chocolate.



When you want to use this, just put it in a jar or basket with warm water.
 Open the lid and make sure there's no water fall into this product. The measurement of the water is 3/4 of the packaging.
Then after it warm and the liquid is not really sticky anymore but like a real honey, take this out from the basket with the warm water.


When you purchased this product, you will get the spatula (2pcs) , 10pcs of fabric material , and Instruction Manual.
(note: the pic above is my own spatula not from the sugarpot and the below one is)

How to use this?
Spread a lil bit of powder onto your skin ( I often skip this step)
Apply this with the spatula to the spot where you want the hair to be remove,
not too much but also not too little, just enough, then just spread it evenly.
Then put the material onto it and press few times.
Then just pull it quickly with the opposite direction of the hair growth.
Yes, Quickly! Don't to be afraid of the pain because it is no pain at all.
But if you pull it softly, it will hurt.


ps: I already used 1/3 of this so it look like this much :D

For the price, it cost me about IDR 80.000 If I don't wrong remember it. The original one (honey) is cheaper IDR 5.000 than the Green tea, Strawberry and Chocolate.

Likes:
- Easy to purchased from the instagram @sugarpotwax
- Affordable
- Easy to use and Effective
- Smells really nice

Dislikes:
- The spatula is wood-made
- Expired date is a year which is  too soon because I don't use this too often

Repurchased?
YES!

4.5 / 5

Tony Moly - Cat Chu Wink Tony Tint #1 Red Apple

Hello fellas,
It's been a month I hadn't post anything on my blog because of my super busy daily activities (internship and thesis).

So today I'm back with a new make up review!
It is Tony Moly - Cat Chu Wink Tony Tint #1 Red Apple

Well, truthfully I bought this months ago and I never had any red lipstick, lip tint or any lip products before this one.


This lip tint comes with a cute packaging! 
As you can see, it has cute cat figure on the top of the lid.
The packaging is made from plastic not glass but it isn't cheap plastic material.

This liptint has perfume smell so if you sensitive with fragrance smell, I don't recommend this to you guys.


As usual, the Korean products didn't come with english explaination about the ingredients or anything  on the back of packaging
(note : except The Etude House)

The packaging itself is light weight and travel size friendly! so it is easy to take this on your purse.

For me, this lip tint is hard to apply because the liquid is really like a water and its hard to blend.
I tried several times to create the gradient lip with this liptint but it turn out not really great.
ps: maybe I apply it wrongly
Unfortunately, the color itself easy to faded away after you eat or drink something.

Likes:

- Light weight
- Affordable (less than IDR 70k on online store)
- available in Indonesia
- Travel size friendly
- cute packaging

Dislikes:

- Not provide english translation
- fragrance smell
- easy to faded away
- hard to blend

Repurchased? 
No

Rate : 3/5

The Etude House - Oh My Line AD Eyeliner Review

I want to introduce to you guys my fav eyeliner so far...
It is The Etude House - Oh My Line AD!


I use this for years and already run out 4 bottle of this
Most of my friends also like this eyeliner because it is very easy to use and not pricey at all.
It only cost 148k on store and less than 50k in online shop.
So if you want to save your money to buy this eyeliner, I recommend you to buy from online shop but the trusted one! :)


This eyeliner come with 3 color : Black, Grey and Brown. 
But I always use the grey one instead of black
This eyeliner last for 4 months when I use it every day. 
The packaging is made from plastic so it is light weight and no worry if you drop it accidentally.


I have an oily skin type so my eyelid is also oily. 
I never apply eye primer for daily make up although I use eyeliner. 
So, this eyeliner is crack when it is dry. The texture of this eyeliner is liquid and it is a bit glittery


As you can see from the pic above, the tip is a bit flat and I should admit it is super easy to use.
 if you want to learn to use eyeliner, I recommend you to choose this eyeliner. 
why? because liquid eyeliner is the hardest one to apply. 
if you already can use liquid eyeliner, no doubt you can use other type eyeliner.
And this eyeliner has a flat brush tip so it super easy to use.

Likes:
- has a flat brush tip so easy to use
- light weight
- cheap
- last longer on my oily eyelid than other eyeliner I use

Dislikes:
- quite pricey if bought on store

See you on other post,

XOXO,

The Skin Food - Salmon Dark Circle Concealor Cream #1 Salmon Blooming Review

I have use this for several times and fall in love with this concealor
so let me introduce to you my fave concealor,
The Skin Food - Salmon Dark Circle Concealor Cream


I bought this on online shop and it cost only IDR 90k. This product is not available in TSF Store in Indonesia when I asked the SA about this product.

I choose the light shade because it suitable with my skin color. The jar made from glass and a lil bit heavy (well its not plastic though)
I like how the packaging look like. kinda classic and simple style.

The jar itself is kinda big compare with the cream. I'm not quite sure how grams it is because it's not written on the packaging but it will last more than 6 months for me, I think


As you can see, it is a cream and doesn't come with any tools so I use my concealor brush to pick just a lil bit of the cream and applied this on my eyebag

I have terrible eye bag and dark circle since teenager and it get worse when I entered university
and I tried others concealor like The Etude House Surprise Essence Concealor and ELF concealor.
Both didn't work great on me but this one really work well

I can cover my dark circle with this concealor and only notice a bit of my eye bag



Likes:
- The design is classic and simple
- Work really great on me
- Not sticky
- Affordable price
- Not smelly

Dislikes:
- didn't comes with the brush
- not available in TSF store in Indonesia

Repurchased:
Yes!
