i really wanted to try this since i saw and smell it at a store near my place where they sell all kind of beauty and salon supplies stuff, i'm really excited to have this on my hand now.
the consistency is like water but bit thicker, not like any other shower gel or cream out there this won't make plenty of foam, but i guess that's better because that will make your skin drier.

i really really like the smell, it's sensual but refreshing and it last around 3 to 4 hours on me, before it gradually faded away.
it wash off perfect, without leaving any greasy film or residue on the skin

they have so so many variant / fragrance and some of them have matching body lotion, but sadly not this one :(

available size : 50ml, 250ml, 560ml, 750ml
price range : IDR 18.000 until 118.000

i bought this at Sociolla with their voucher freebies (read my diclosure) and i picked the product myself.

i bought these babies (+ they also gave me 15% off coupon)
the travel size Cottage is sooo cute and tiny (50 ml) it only cost IDR 18.000
i got Gentle exfoliating shower gel Violet Sugar and Ocean Blossom shower gel that i gave to my husband ( he really love it )

This micellar purity water is composed of micelles, small particles of tensioactives which trap impurities found the surface of the epidermis. 
These micelles effectively remove make-up and thoroughly clean the face, eyes and lips.

A naturally gentle result
Leaves skin soft, fresh and hydrated, without prickling or tightness.

INGREDIENTS : Aqua, Poloxamer 184, Glycerin, Peg-40 Hydrogenated Castor Oil,
Sodium Benzoate, Parfum, Potassium Sorbate, Citric Acid, Disodium Edta, Paeonia
Officinalis Flower Extract, Sodium Hydroxide.

 ================================================================================
basically a cleansing water without drying or irritate even on sensitive skin..
Bioderma has been my favorite cleansing water EVERR (here's my REVIEW)... because i ran out of those i might try out other product.. this caught my eye while i was (originally) searching for Bioderma, for price this is cheaper than Bioderma say.. around Idr 200k (250ml)... while this one is Idr 190k (500 ml), just make it short.. i got this because it was cheaperrr... :D

the product comes with a pump, you have to be careful not pumping it too rough, make sure to place the cotton pad not too far from the pump or else it will get messy. 2-3 pumps are enough for my whole face.

in term of cleansing Corine De Farme cleanse like Bioderma, and just like Bioderma you have to use separate eye make up remover (for me i use baby oil ) for waterproof mascara ( i used L'OREAL Butterfly Effect mascara ) and this is slightlyyyyy sting my eye when i accidentaly get some into my eye while i was cleaning my eyeliner.
- for the Hydrating part, i don't think this is hydrating enough for my skin - i have acne prone/sensitive/mature/dry skin.
-"without prickling or tightness" sorry to say i do have a little prickling and just a bit tightness after use (before i continue clean my face with facial wash).
Top :
Mascara - Loreal butterfly effect waterproof
Bottom R-L :
- Jordana 12 Hour Made to Last liquid eyeliner pencil
- Dollywink liquid eyeliner pen
- Revlon Just Bitten Kissable Balm Stain
- Pixy BB Cream
my routine for night time is always to cleanse my skin twice.. with cleansing oil or cleansing water then facial wash especially when i wear sunblock and bb cream/foundation.

the one thing that puts me down when i saw the ingredients list was PERFUME.. personally i don't like my cleanser to have perfume or at least not too much, this has that sweet floral milky scent (not too strong though) and now after using it for a while the smell is bearable.

overall i think this is a pretty good product if your looking for a cleansing water as well as Bioderma
as for my skin concern i still prefer Bioderma, but this do the job just as well as Bioderma, it would have suits you if you have normal-combination oily skin.


CORINE DE FARME

PLUS

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 - MIZZU EYELINER PEN black and brown

Are you an eyeliner rookie ? Then you have to try this...

MIZZU EYELINER PEN - Made in Indonesia
Currently available in 2 shade black and brown

Produced and distributed by :
PT. ASTORIA PRIMA
Jl. Pluit raya, Jakarta
Indonesia
NA181113202612


What they said on the packaging :

Mizzu present the latest trend in eyeliner pen. It is easy to use and glides smoothly to color. Form super sharp and thin lines. No mess and no smudge. Easy to carry around.

Takes 30 seconds to dry for maximum waterproof effect.

Ingredients :


comes in a sleek plastic packaging... loved the design.


The pen itself has it own seal ♥ so you know it's really new


The pen tip is not too hard nor too soft.. just prefect... but for me i wish it was a bit smaller,  i think for beginners this is perfect eyeliner pen.



Left (black) Right (brown).. the difference was not too noticeable after i applied it on skin.

Above : rub it a few times after 30secs (still good.. yay!!)
Below : sprinkle some water (the color wears off... :( )

This is what happened when i rub it after sprinkle some water on the eyeliner.


Pros :
- very affordable, i got mine around IDR 20.000 each on online store
- smudge proof as long as you stay away from water
- on me it last quite a while (w/ primer) up to 6 hours
- easy to apply
- efficient and easy to carry
- perfect for beginners
- very easy to clean

Cons :
- not waterproof
- i only find it on online store only
- i don't think this is suitable for oily lid (i recommend using primer before)
- the brown color seem to have better staying power than the black one


I believe MIZZU come up with mascara too.

Have you tried this?
