One Fun Night with LUXOLA

Earlier this month, on 4th October, I was invited by @luxolasg to attend their exclusive VIP introduction for bloggers at Kemang Icon.

At first, I was surprised. WHO ARE THEY?
WHAT'S A LUXOLA?
I mean.. VIP Introduction? They are throwing an exclusive event?

Then..
I opened www.luxola.com

I was fascinated by the brands that they are carrying on their e-commerce service!
Sigma beauty, Korres, Deborah Lippmann, Mario Badescu, KAI, Paperself eyelashes, Sleek, and the other high-end cosmetic lines that I was never heard of.

When I arrived at the venue, the thing that I did was A BIG EXHALE OF AFTER-GOT-STUCKED-IN-KEMANG'S-TRAFFIC..
*whoosah*

As we(I, @rinicesillia, and @phanie14) went in to the room where the event be held, we were welcomed by Lexy (Alexis), and Cam (Camille).
They can only speak English with us, so..
After they popped the champagne, I talked in English like nobody's business..  HAHAHA

I love the way they approach bloggers.
Getting to know each other in the best way, by introducing their services 1-on-1.
Unlike another event that inviting tons of blogger and media, shove them up with press release, throw some music/entertainment/demo, and say their byes.

Luxola is giving the best service for their customer.
They ship the packages using DHL!

LUXOLA is based in Singapore.
They are shipping internationally over Southeast Asia countries.
But I believe they ship world wide as well, because some brands are exclusively sold on their web.

You can always ask them everything regards to their services by email:
contact@luxola.com


It's a very interesting online shop of beauty..
YOU DON'T WANT TO MISS IT..!!



Here's some pictures I took during the event..

House of LUX White

HI!  This time it's all about  "Just A Little Touch of LUX"..

Last 2 week, I was invited by LUX to attend their "House of LUX White" event, in the spirit of  "LUX White" campaign.  

It took place at The Dharmawangsa's Grand Ball Room..


LUX always wanna impress the market with a 'Million Dollar Feeling' beauty soap.
And it began with the 'LUX Magical Spell' last semester [or over 70 years? HAHA >_<].
[click HERE to read my report of LUX Magical Spell in my mother language]

Me and, Gabby were going together.
I even had the chance to do her makeup before we go go.. WOOT!

Gabby from www.milkmochi.com , and me
HI.. >_<

After stuck on traffic, and being lost for almost 2 hours, we arrived at the white party..
I'm glad we(me, and Gabby) impressed our blogger fellas with our appearance.
HAHA it's rare to see me suit up for an occasion.

When I enter the venue where the event took place,
my eyes were pleased with soap bars, soap bottle, and soap bar placing which has been bedazzled with Preciosa, Genuine Czech crystal.  like, Oh My God...  So pretteeeh~


bedazzled!

And the event began. The reason why I was so perked up about is the MC!
HAHA  Amy Zein is so hilarious!
It's cool that she even remembered me, and spotted me when she's entering the venue. Kyaa~


Then, Afriani Karina, Senior Brand Manager of LUX Indonesia, approached the stage and said:
"To SHINE is a power that drives women think that they can achieve everything ahead. It's a MINDSET, ATTITUDE, and ACTION."

The guest speaker, Roslina Verauli, a psychologist, supported that statement by saying:
"Each person there's a WANT to shine. Most of the women are thinking that by having a fair skin, they feel more precious, and boost the confidence, even by being that way it's comforting for them to face their life, in social life, or in their career."

Afriani, Verauli, Amy (source: milkmochi)
Some points, I can't go with them.  BUT!  Ms Verauli got a point after that, "inner beauty is important. But don't forget the outter beauty. People can always say that DON'T JUDGE A BOOK BY ITS COVER, but first impression, the outter, is what people see on you when they met you."

THAT'S WHY, GIRLSSS..  HOLLAAA! *ok, It's lame I speak holla*


AND the stars of the night came out..

LUX White Glamour, LUX White Radience (source: milkmochi)

To maintain the softness, shine, and moist of skin, LUX present:
  1. LUX White Glamour :  the Triple-Ingredient-System are mulberry extract, honey, and microfine crystal.  It helps to reduce the dead cell skin, and maintain the softness of skin.
  2. LUX White Radiance :  the Triple-Ingredient-System are mulberry extract, honey, and crushed shiny pearls. It gives shine, and nourish the skin ate the same time.
Well, I have experienced the soaps.
The White GLAMOUR has the scent that I love the most of these two. It's sweet of lilies, roses, jasmine, with a hint of musk, vanilla, honey, and fruits. And it got the tiny little pearl that pop when I scrub it on my skin. Maybe that's the stuff that helps to get rid of the dead cells skin.
The White RADIANCE is the softest scent of LUX liquid soap I have ever been using. I can smell rose, freesia, fruity, honey, citrus, and amber. The texture is very rich, honey like, with some crushed pearls[mica?] in it.

In other words, these two soap really does the job as a soap that gives 'million dollar feeling'.


The feeling of 'millionaire' comes with the campaign!  They are co-working with the Preciosa, a crystal maker company from Republic of Czech.
Preciosa is well-known as their fine artistry of their works in crystals, chandeliers, and have worked with so many fashion houses, and PALACE(s)!

Roslina Verauli, Afriani Karina, Kucera Vojtech, Amy Zein (source: milkmochi)
Mr. Kucera Vojtech, representative from Preciosa said, "like crystal, women have a lot of sides that are shining. Crystal and women give timeless beauty. We(Preciosa) are glad to getting involved in this campaign."

TARAAA the Giant LUX White (source: milkmochi)
OK, there's a literally giant LUX White, you see.
The size is like 5 meters tall, the wide is 2 size of my body.

By 15th of October 2012, until 25th of November 2012, LUX is collecting OUR dazzling moments!
Check out LUX facebook page, or their twitter @LUX_ID for further information.

Until then, Preciosa is presenting 1 fine crystal for each of our dazzling moment that has been collected by LUX, and the crystals gonna be bedazzled on the giant of LUX White!  AMAZING!
A symbol of Indonesian DAZZLING MOMENTS of their lifes.  WOW!

My Weekly MINI FACIAL Routine

I live in a very stressful city and environment.
The city is JAKARTA.

The weather, the pollution, and my lifestyle in Jakarta are kinda disastrous.

You know me.. I take things slowly now.
When things are going crazy around me, I escape to my room, cool down my head.
Then open my vanity case, found these items, and start a mini facial myself since last August.
HAHAHA  >_<

Sari Ayu Martha Tilaar "Jeruk" cleansing milk

Etude House Skin Mal-Geum in Fresh
Evian Facial Spray

 
= STEPS =

Cleansing the face using this cleansing milk from Sari Ayu 
The thing that I like from this cleansing milk is, it's mild, and suitable for my normal-to-oily skin type.
Its calming yet refreshing citrus scent is great too!
Since it's local product, the price is chirping CHEAP-CHEAP-CHEAP.. 
 
Take off the cleansing milk
I use the Skin Mal-Geum toner.
OR
I spray the Evian on cotton pad, and using it to wipe off the milk outta my face.
 
Put on the mask
Its gel texture and VERY hydrating formula are very helpful for an instant self-pampering.
Not to mention the NO RINSE factor!  Superb.. *.*
Well, if there's any excess mask on the face after 3 minutes, I wipe it off with toner using cotton pad.


OK.. This is my MINI FACIAL routine since last August.
I've been doing it once or twice a week.

And actually, I'm in need of facial scrub..
Too lazy to grind oatmeal and mix it with Vit E capsule & honey for scrubbing.

OOPSIE!
DID I JUST SAY IT OUT LOUD?!
Now I guess I gotta give you my DIY recipe of facial scrub, huh? LOL
Well, will post it next time, when I got time to mix it up.
Stay tuned!

Etude House SKIN MAL-GEUM in Fresh

Annyong Haseyo..?  Oren Maniya..
(HI, howdy? It's been a while..)

OK.. Imma review about Etude House's Skin Mal-Geum, which is a skincare line consist of toner, and moisturizer.  Didn't buy the moisturizer though. Had tried the moisturizer in sample size. Well, it's nothing to compared with the cheap-ass Hada Labo moisturizing lotion.  HAH!

So, I go for this Oil Control toner, Skin Mal-Geum in Fresh.
In Korean, it's called Se-Khin Mal-Geum Phi-Ji Khon-The-Rol(oil control).
HAHA I knooow.. Sounds funny. But I love speaking in Korean. It's.. Arousing. LOL *weird*

I bought this, because I'm tempted by Phanie's post about it.  
CLICK HERE to read what she said about another variant of Skin Mal-Geum.

Etude House Skin Mal-Geum in Fresh
When the first time I tried the sample, I've fallen for the smell.. It smells so good!
I'm not a skincare junkie or something. And I'm kinda LAZY to put on some products on my face.
BUT I GOTTA..

This toner helps me to minimized my pores, clean those oil on T-zone, and moisturizing (a little) at the same time.
Well, in other words, generally, toner preps your skin before you put on any face product.


"Mal-Geum" is the Korean word for cleanness, clarity, and pureness(or purity? is there such word? mmkay..)

I usually use this toner to prep my skin before makeup, works on my oily eyelids as well.
Most of the times, I use this toner to wipe off the excess mask when I'm using my L'Occitane Angelica Instant Hydration mask.


OK. So..

ARE YOU MAL-GEUM YET?

I AM..
*Angelic pose*
