DIY very simple Eye Serum (for dark circle, fine lines and puffiness)


last (but not least) i posted about my eye cream product from History of Whoo.. but i'm not using it for quite a while now, in fact i wasn't using any eyecream for months now because i can't find a good one... (all the products that i've tried cause milia under my eye) hmm oh sensitive skin...
tired of searching this and that products, I decided to make my own Eye Serum.... when i was googling i was surprised to see that there're so many recipes out there and because i'm still a newbie in this DIY thing, I went for the most easiest simple-est one...

This DIY Eye Serum just need 3 item :
1 any small flip top bottle (make sure it clean and sterilized) or any bottle you like.
Organic Aloe Vera Gel
Organic Sweet Almond oil
suitable for : any skin type

the next step is sooooo easy

combine aloe gel and almond oil equal part (1:1) into the bottle and shake-shake-shake...
(also shake before use)

THERE YOUR DONE...!! that's simple...


if the lotion is too heavy add more aloe, if you need more moist add more oil.
(i recommend to store in refrigerator)
if you have nut allergies, you can use apricot kernel oil and also you can add lavender essential oil to nourish your lashes.
because this is natural and organic stuff, you don't have to worry about how sensitive your skin is.

ALOE VERA Benefits :
Too many.. i can't describe one by one here.. otherwise this post will be tooo long, and you'll get bored haha..


SWEET ALMOND OIL benefits :

1. Moisturizing
2. Anti-inflammation
3. Emollient Properties
4. Removing Dark Circles
5. Reducing Wrinkles
6. Sun Protection
7. Apparently this oil can make your lashes healthier and (maybe) longer too.



this serum works wonder on me and it doesn't have to cost me a fortune yipeeeiii  \(^.^)/
i used this for a month now and it minimized my fine line and reduced my dark circle.. i loveee this so much and will try to add lavender into my serum after i finished this bottle.

if you have oily lids, i suggest you use this at night.

i bought my organic stuff here (Femaledaily) with mbak elea...

well.. great stuff doesn't always have to be expensive.. right??


XOXO

Review : Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery BB SPF 50+ PA+++

haii haii again...

this time i want to talk about SUNBLOCK from BIORE which is now become my favorite (well i actually bought 2 kinds of sunblock from the line and i LOVE them both).
but for now i want to talk about this one first :


Bioré UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence with BB SPF 50+ PA++++

Ingredients : Water (Aqua), Zinc Oxide, Alcohol, Cyclopentasiloxane, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Lauryl Methacrylate/Sodium Methacrylate Crosspolymer, Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine, Glycerin, Polysorbate 60, Stearyl Alcohol, Sodium Acrylate/Sodium Acryloyldimethyl Taurate Copolymer, Isohexadecane, Methicone, Dimethicone, Polysorbate 80, Xanthan Gum, Fragrance (Parfum), Disodium EDTA, BHT, Butylene Glycol, Propylene Glycol, Citrus Grandis (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Sodium Hyaluronate, Citrus Aurantium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Phenoxyethanol, Methylparaben, Butylparaben, Ethylparaben, Propylparaben, CI 77491, CI 77492, CI 77499, CI 77891

i bought this directly from Japan (by PreOrder), so i don't think this is the same product as the one in Singapore (? if anyone know pls tell me)

source : HERE

this one claims to have 3D effect and apparently have better coverage (as i read from other beauty bloggers)
can't wait to get my hands on this one.. but that's another story.

continue on the one i have here ....................
my thoughts??

Texture : Light beige-ish cream, little blending necessarily for even application, smooth velvety texture, no sticky feeling.. as it claims \(^.^)/

Coverage : Light - barely cover any spots or blemishes (most certain will not cover severe red acne), but enough to even out and brighten up the skin tone, but it will leave dry patches on dry skin. (make sure to use enough moisturizer before)
Oil Control : 7/10 i have normal-dry skin and mostly work under air conditioning environment.. and i say this has good oil control... suit for people with oily-combination-normal skin.


What i LOVE :
- lightweight
- good oil control
- sweat-proof
- no mineral oil (for some people can cause acne), no fragrance (but I smell subtly citrus scent)
- high enough SPF 

What I Don't LOVE :
- Not available in Indonesia ( I got this via market place +FemaleDailyNetwork )
- Not enough coverage
- Comes in 1 shade only (this part i can't say that i don't love because the color suit me)
- Not hydrating enough


Price : around US$7 (+shipping&handling around IDR 130rb) for 33gr

that's all from me..
ps share your fave sunblock...
don't forget to follow me...
