Hi everyone, how are you? It is hot and humid here in Surabaya. I am sweating a lot and the mosquitos are flying around >.< . How about your town? Is it like this too?
Currently, i am competing in a make up contest held by PAC. The theme is about colorful make up. When i read this, i was startled. Colorful make up? I suddenly thought of a very extreme make up, "lenong face", and heavy make up. But well, i wanted to create something more natural. Colorful but wearable. I like a look that when you walk by, people are astonished by your "so called natural" beauty. But when they look closer, they would see something more. ART. They would say something like " whoo, the eye make up is cool!" or something like that :P hehehe..
Hmm, this is the wearable version of the colorful make up. When i make this look i wanted to emphasize on glowy face, that is why i used a lot of highlighter and shimmer. Hopefully it would not look too much tho? What do you think?
For this look i am using:
Nature Republic Vanilla Sky foundation
Maybelline concealer in sand beige
Marcks Powder in Cream
Maybelline Moisture Sensation in Angel Rose
Aubeau eye primer
Sariayu Eyeshadow Pallete
Ciaaa.. here are the cam whoring pics..
I change the lipcolor to red. I end up looking like MAKCIK instead. Huaa really unable to pull off red color..
And this is the official pic that i send to PAC Website. Anybody join this too? Please leave a comment with a link below, i will certainly like and support your photo :). I hope you can win!
And these are the eyes. I admit i really have to work on my eyebrow. I am so bad at drawing eyebrow. If you girls know some good tutorial or wanna teach me personally please let me know hehehehe.
Just a little trick, with this look i am using a clear tape conecting the outer corner of my eyes to outer corner of my eyebrow. So that i can achieve a clean - sharp angle.
BYEEE.. <3 hana

Yo, fabulousista! Weekend is ON, what have you been doing today? I hope you have a great one. I went on a date with my BF today, it was real fun ^^. Then, i am back again to write a review about Etude House.
It is my lip tint that i haul months ago.
So, i think the product has a great color pay off. Eventhough it is orange, it is able to pull cute color to my face. It turns out to be great, not weird. Yay! hehehe...
The staying power is so - so. After i am done eating, it is always gone. Maybe got eaten together with the foods :p.. When it happens, i just dot three in both bottom and upper lips, then blend it together with my fingers, concentrating on the inner part of the lips.
The tint is drying to my lips. So, i ussually put lip balm after using it. I suggest u not to put lipbalm before, because the tint turns out to be not vivid and have hard time showing itself.
As usual, packaging is super cute I love the details. Do you see the cap and the flower details? Love it. Hehehe. The cap is also tight, so it prevents the product from spilling.
Anyhow, here are some FOTD of me using these product. Excuse my tired face. I am not feeling well today (yet still go around with BF *slapped! haha). I got a fever and my voice is gone >.<
FACE:
Caring colors BB Cream
Marcks Powder
CHEEK:
NYX cheek from ALL I`VE EVER WANTED PALLETE
EYES:
Max factor masterpiece eyeshadow in icicle pink and coffee
Bobbi brown gel liner in black ink
Silkygirl eye opener mascara
LIPS:
Etude House Dear Darling Aloha Tint in ORANGE

My dear fellow blogger, Gita, has kindly tag me "11 random things about me". Thanks, Git (x0x0) . She has a very nice beauty blog, i have been loving her blog, if you have time please check her blog too here
These are the rules ( i just copy it from Gita`s blog):
This is my weakness. Very messy and disorganized. If you come into my room, my things are like scattered everywhere. In a busy days, you even have to move things ( bags, magazine, make up, and etc) with your feet because the floor are covered with goods >.<. I often lose my cellphone and precious make up inside my room. That is how bad it is.
7. I love Mulan, but hate another princesses stories
8. I bit my lips when i sleep
Bad sleeping habit :p. Since i was kid, i love to bite my lip until i fall asleep. That happens till now, even worsened when i feel anxious.
9. I have three FAMILIES
10. My deepest dream is to be a professor and have a WOMANLY bussiness
These are the rules ( i just copy it from Gita`s blog):
- Buat posting dengan judul 11 Random Things About Me
- Trus, tulisin siapa yang menge-tag kalian
- Lalu buat 11 hal random tentang kamu. boleh apaaa aja.. namanya juga random ^^
- Jawab 11 pertanyaan dari orang yang nge-tag kamu
- Tag 11 teman kamu buat ikutan main ini
- Jangan lupa, kasih tau di blog temanmu yang sudah kamu tag, biar dia bisa ikutan maen jugaa..
- Jangan lupa, tuliskan juga aturan mainnya, biar permainan ini ga putus di kamu yaa..
Ok, those above are the rules. And here are my 11 random things
1. Blogging is my sweet escape
As you may read, sometimes i am sharing with you my crazy entrepreneur life, like working long hours and so many pressures. Thanks for hearing "reading" me out, girls. Knowing you all there and listening my thoughts had relieve my stress somehow ^^. Writing about beauty things are also giving my brain a rest. Thinking and enduring the business all the time are painful. But when i write about my favorite thing, i feel happier.
2. I spend a lot of time researching about make up
When i feel burn out, i read a lot of beauty blog. Window shopping on online stores, and just watching make up tutorial video.I enjoy those things everyday. Sometimes my sis even say, " Make up again make up again, isn`t there anything else in internet that you can see?" Hahahaha.
3. I am making a thesis about make up
I am about to graduate and of course a thesis is a requirement. I will be writing about the influence of self regulation and public self consciousness towards make up use behavior. I am about to release the questionaire along the big giveaway. So, girls, please please help me fill the questionaire so i can graduate faster *puppy eyes*
4. I am VERY MESSY
5. I have never been lip - kissed
:p. This is so random hahahaha. Me and my boyfriend had agreed that we are going to respect each other and fulfil each other dream. One of my dream is to have my first kiss down in the altar of the church. Also, i don`t find it appropriate to share kiss in a courtship relationship. Such a conventional girl, am i?
6. I have never dyed my hair
Another conventional side of me ^^. I have never dyed my hair, and never blow dry/straighten my hair in daily basis. I am so sensitive about hair because my hair is very difficult. Dry, puffy and so thick. I am afraid it will get worse if i use hair styling tools and hair dyed it.
I am the kind of girl who fight against obstacle, and not waiting for the prince or angel to save my life. Maybe that is why i can relate to Mulan, whereas i find another princesses as very lame and weak.
Bad sleeping habit :p. Since i was kid, i love to bite my lip until i fall asleep. That happens till now, even worsened when i feel anxious.
My family is not divorced, don`t get me wrong. When i was kid, my grammy family nurtured me. She is like a MOM to me. Then, when i reached 4th grade, i come back to my natural family. When i was high school, i received a scholarship to USA and lived with my host family. They really give me precious memory and values. So overall, i got three families.
I love to teach and that is my passion. Sadly, my family financial aren`t good. What is left to me is hardwork and talents. Those are my assets to pursue higher education. This has become my motives to work day to night. I also don`t wannabe a professor that is fluent in theory only. I want to teach my students how to survive in real world and become successful. As a vivid vision, i want to have businesses that related to us woman. This vision has come true. I have SOYA business now, and it is really healthy and benefit all woman to have better skin and nutrients :). Very grateful.
11. I love my sisters very much
I have two sisters named reta and lisa. The girl above is Reta :). As the family backbone, i will do my best so that my sisters can pursue higher education and have a bright future. Fighting!

Hi everyone, i am coming back with another BB Cream review. I am such a bb cream fan :). This one is from Etude House - total age repair. This review is based on samples that i use for a week
This product claims to have a wrinkle reduce effect. Well, not exactly compatible for my 20 ish skin because skin in my age is still good.
The BB cream has a light texture and sheer coverage. At first it turn out to be grey tone just like another BB cream, after awhile it matches my skin tone perfectly, giving it brighter and smoother look.
When i use it, i notice a small fragrance. So, please be careful for you who has sensitive skin. But overall, this bb cream doesn`t give any bad effect unto my skin.
The oil control is so so, around three hours lha. Somehow, when i blot, the bb cream comes off a little bit and makes my skin looks uneven. Does this happen to you too?
I will go for FUN now. Today after an online meeting, my boss in Singapore suddenly giving me a day OFF yuhuuu!. Good things happen to me today. Since the opportunity like this doesn`t come often. I should probably go now and seize it. See you later fabulousista!

Time runs so fast. Just like today, before i knew it, the time turns to 1.00 am in the morning. When i counted it, i already worked 13 hours today. Well, just typical day of my life. My life wasn`t like this before i started my new business. I have never imagined that start something by your own is really tiring. I have a family business in Mojokerto, an electrical antenna business and it wasn`t this tiring. When i glanced back when i started that antenna business, i really can not say enough thanks to the help from my parents. Starting by my own like this really exaggerate the meaning of their contribution back then.
I have lost all my likings for the job. I love teaching and dancing, you girls, might know that already from my profile. I used to teach and i enjoyed so much. One by one i let my teaching job go and focus solely on my new bussiness. I also didn`t dance anymore. A lot of time i get a fight with my BF too, because i am too busy working. I often left him alone when we have a date and went to the counter to solve a problem. Sometimes this kind of thing pissed him a lot. I left my violin in the corner of my room. Left unplayed.
At this point, i was wondering, why do i work this hard? What for? My life becomes very boring and tiring. Well, i know all of this are consequences, i accept, but i can`t help being sad. Choices have consequences. This just a part of it. I remembered once my lecturer remind me not to work and push myself too hard because i might come to a point of burn out. Burn out, and it will be hard to fight and stand back again.
Well, i might as well as being burn out this time. After time and time think and doing some reflection. I really feel that i didn`t regret to choose the business. I have met important people of my life. I met my best friend and my mentor, James, who had helped me through difficult days. Even though he is faraway in Singapore, he always all ears and brain to me. He helped me solve the company problems and being patient with my feeble and moody habit.
All the fights i had with my boyfriends are worth it. It hurts, yes. But then, after all the fights, didn`t i get to see his true colors, and my true colors. I really reflect all this time. We endure all and our relationship is stronger. We understand now that relationship is not all about movie, texting, romance, flowers, and all that happy thing. Our effort to understand each other and willingness to help each other matters. When i saw him help me, like lifting sugar containers (each 30 kgs), running errands around the city, repairing the store until 2 in the morning. I was grateful. The saying that said "two is better than one" really is true.
I learned so much during this time also. Later when we succeed, i will never forget the time i almost got into accidents when i run errands with my motorcycle. I will never forget that lonely - unfair days, when it feels like no one can help me and i have been left alone. All these bitterness will come to an end one day :). If i quit now because i burn out, those bitterness and hard works will come to a vain. Nothing but waste of time and efforts. I have to walk strong and work harder until i can see that the bussiness succeed.
I do believe so.
FIGHTING
