au revoir et a bientot!

yesterday was my last day at loreal.. i know i'm going to miss those make up classes, beauty workshops, make up bar, glossy mags, and definitely my colleagues and boss as well. i learn so many things from them, especially on how to translate a grand strategy into execution that consists sooooo many fine details *the details are so tiny that might require you a microscope to see them hehe*

oh, and my colleagues gave me some nice freebies as my goodbye present *pardon the image quality*

i like them a lot. now i could save so much spaces in my bag by having those cute mini make ups hehe. Thanks a lot:) Btw, you can have them all *oops, except the Hydra Zen Day Cream* by simply buying Lancome's products worth IDR 1,500,000

L to R: Mini Eyeshadow Quad #350 - Mini Gloss - Mini Juicy Tubes - Mini Virtuose Mascara - Mini Magnifique EDT - Hydra Zen Day Cream - Mini Bifacil - Mini Khol

BTW, i really love that Hydra Zen Day Cream, very relaxing for both my skin and temper. Althought the texture is cream, it surprisingly doesn't break my skin out. I think I'd purchase the complete range if it does good within one week or so :)

mineral foundie

Happy Eid Fitr to everyone. May God bless you all x)

during this quite short eid-fitr holiday, i've been hardly spent my time on sephora.com. at first i only wanted to look around, but it ended up in deep confusion on whether i should give mineral make up a second chance or not.

i once used this mineral make up *but i can't tell which brand hehehe*, but my skin broke out. uhuhu, well, til now i'm not sure whether it was caused by hormone imbalance, my allergy to bismuth oxychloride, or the texture of the free kabuki brush that is a bit rough *and too bad i hardly washed it* hehehe.

well well, maye i'd rather stick to my conventional loose powder.. i can't stand the risk.. haha, enuff said. the girls at lancome have this gorgeous skin... so, i don't want to make the disparity any further. haha.

ohya, i also found many MANY eye candies there. Cutie eye shadow palettes from Tarte, Too Faced, and Sephora. very berry cute packaging. but again, i don't think i'd buy them because first I don;t know whether if they have rich pigment. Second, I am waiting for Lancome's Declaring Indigo palette in Or Liberte to be launched here in Indonesia *crossing fingers, hope it would be happening soon*

but really, i love the packaging. Especially this studded eyeshadow palette from Tarte (Courtesy: sephora.com). Cute rite, looked like clutch bag. Maybe I'll make myself make up pouch that looked like this cutie hehehe

j'aime bien

random facts:

1. i totally love glossy magazines. and my working place is heaven for people like me because they always have the latest issue of elle, bazaar, female, herworld, dewi, etc; therefore, they're all now become my daily dose. and this is really good since i'm totally into glossy magazines and hardly read motivational books. don't get me wrong... i enjoy reading investment books much more than reading motivational books and i read newspapers just-so you know but.... well, i just never feel any kind of enlightment or excitement after reading motivational books.
2. i love udon udon udon and any other kind of noodle or pastas. i always wish that ind*mie one day would produce an msg-free version of its superb noodle product.
   
3. i love the fact i can write for magazines eventhou i don't work for a magazine
4. dreams do come true, even my silly milly dream for an eyeliner that could be applied like the way i applied marker or felt tip pen. yes yes, i found this liner design from lancome, a fool-proof eyeliner that is suitable for people like moi, who always want make up to have big impact with such low effort hehe. well, the colour is not as opa
   

anniemal

i likeee that song a lot that it rhymes on my mind over and over x)

ohyaaa, a bit of me can't wait for tomorrow. hahahaha, i know it's monday but there are several reasons that makes workdays are exciting..
1. i want that super deliciooooo stuffed tofu at CCF
2. gonna visit SEIBU@grand indo for lancome's podium means i cud have mie lekker as my munchy lunch!
3. i want to wear that just-bought tulip skirt

sounds shallow.. i know hahaha

ohyaaaaaaaa, here are some looks that would be the inspiration if you work in fashion/beauty industry ehehehe.. i kinda like the 'dress code' at loreal's LPD division (LPD = luxurious product division)

chic and sophisticated are probably the most suitable adjective to describe the 'dress code' at LPD. a bit of sexiness/feminity/edginess on you daily look is totally okay as you could pull of that well-groomed look. ahaha, pour moi? j'aime bien ca.. i love dressing up, however i got to learn more about make up because i'm not really good at it. hahahaha...

a month after

so, yesterday's my very first pay day hehehe. happy like a hippy hippo. hohoho... and honestly i spent quite a lot today on skin care. but trust me, if you were me, u'll do the same thing... i mean, all the girls at lancome have incredibly smooth skin. and i was like... uh oh... hahahaha.

oh, and i feeell superrrr glad today because i bought a tulip skirt at orange that looked truly similar with the skirt that i want at xsml unless this skirt's price is like only 1/3 of its twin at xsml. ahahaha, i was about to buy it at xsml when i passed through orange store and found this skirt. happy happy happy..

well, the hightlight of the skin care products that i just bought is..... taaaadaaaaaaaaaaa..... this masker from lancome: PURE EMPREINTE... basically, it's a mask with white clay ingredient that is well known of its effectiveness in absorbing excess oil. and a very gud fact about this product is.. it could also be used to dry up you zits overnight.

just apply it a bit on ur zit and voilaaaaaa, those naughty red dots would fade away in the morning after. hehehe.... hopefully it works as wht the beauty consultant told me. hehe.... and no, this is not an advertisement because who's gonna read this blog but me et moi hahahaha....

my 1st week report

hey all, i’ve just passed my very 1st week@l’oreal. so far so gud, ehmmm beyond than gud i guess. well, how can i not enjoy my internship time there if i’m literally surrounded by glossy magazines, big traincase fulfilled with arrays of makeup palette, beauty workshops every week, etc etc etc. hahaha, sounds fun rite?

aheemm, but don’t get me wrong. the work load there is also very heavy and intense. 7pm is the average time for the employee to go home and 6pm could be considered as “pulang cepat” hahaha. and yes, we work on weekends.

ohhh, and i’m a bit excited to come to elle tomorrow to supervise  lancome’s photo shoot. hihihi x)

reject Ho

do u guys still remember tye-dye that had became major trend last year. i dislike that trend so much that i made this hypothesis

ho: tye dye= unchic

confidence interval = 95%

the null hypothesis was accepted under 95% confidence interval. not until several weeks ago when i fell in love with this dress from celine s/s 2009. ohh, so maybe i got to change the confidence interval to 99% so could must reject the null hypothesis that stated tye dye is unchic. hihihi. love this kind of uber chic tye dye x)
