Healthy Diet Tips and Trick (lose 0,5-1 kg/week)

I'm back to be more active, because Final test had finished <3 <3 So excited because of it xD
Today, I'm gonna tell you about tips and trick to do on a diet. It's absolutely important to be healthy, but it will be more awesome if you have an ideal figure.
Ideal Figure is not based on what you looked compared to others, especially when you compared yourself with the korean actress. It's based on how many fat you have in your body. To have an ideal figure, you should have an average fat content, not too little or too much.
*Ps: I've done this diet trick before and had succeed to lose 5kg. I don't get more weight loss because I set the goal to lose exactly 5kg.

So, here's the things to begin our diet :)
1. Measure your height and weight. To know your ideal weight, use this formula: 
    (Height in cm) - 107 = Your ideal weight
2. Make goal or timetable to reach your ideal weight
3. Some things you should NOT eat when doing this diet =
--- Fried (deep fry or pan fry)
--- Ice cream
--- Contains cream
--- Cow or duck meat
--- coconut milk
--- cheese
--- Preservative foods or cans
4. Start to DECREASE for eating this food =
--- contains flour/carbohydrate
--- sugar
--- Seafood

5. Do exercise min. 4 times/week for 45-60 minutes (non-stop)
*For reference, because the time period is long so I decide to walk non-stop for my exercise
6. Drink many water. Because water can helps your digestive to be more good in absorbs nutrition and it makes you eat little.

So, examples of food you could eat are ....
> baked
> fruits and vegetables ( eat as many as you want!)
> WHOLE WHEAT bread
> fish, chicken

And finally I should admit this :X In my own opinion, maybe you won't have very big ideas for eating and maybe you think this diet would torture you. But you should know something, you can eat many healthy food if you want to search the recipe. There are so much thing you could search on the internet.
As for i-Pod or i-phone user, there are so much useful application to support your diet. I use "myfitnesspal" for looking my progress and instagram would be great to search inspirations to do your diet.

Last but not least, these are the tips that i want to share (it's really helpful)
>>Don't mix too many diet method because it won't be useful/successful.
>> try to search calorie counter application and make notes everyday or every 2 days how many calorie have you eat and compare to exercises that you've done. Is it balanced?
>> expand your knowledge on healthy food and "fatty" foods
>> Make commitment in yourself to be patient and be happy with any of your weight loss, but don't stop until you've reach your goal.
>> It'll be so hard in the beginning to start a healthy routine, but once you've done it. You'll be more happy for go through it.
>> After 2 months or 3 months on your diet, it's normal when you'll face harder times to loss your weight.
>> FACTS: Playing music will also burn your fat.

[Coastal Scents] 78 eyeshadow blush palette

It's been so long since I've made a post to this blog, cause there're so much thing to do on my past weekends and also the weekdays T^T
But, today I'm back with full of courage and I want to write a review about a palette that I bought 5 months ago and I'm sooo lucky to get that palette with discount price <3 <3
*PS: please remember if you want to buy this product, you should look carefully at the colors in the palette and the original one ONLY have blush and eyeshadow in this palette. Because there're so many palette that says the brand is coastal scents, but it's the price so much cheaper than you purchase on the official website/supplier.

Official websitehttp://www.coastalscents.com/

And here's the pics of my palette <3

Wanna know does it worthed to buy? So, keep reading my review <3

Packaging = Since I think packaging is important, I should say this is GREAT! Why? The package is simple but nice, also from this picture below, you can see the eyeshadows are well organized. So it will be easier for anyone to choose the color that you want to use. But, a palette has a big size (same as any other palette) so I think it's not really suitable for bringing it anywhere~ Usually I only use it at home.

Pigmentation = The colors are easy to blend and shows up really well to my eyes, you'll only need a little amount to use the eyeshadow and the result will be much better if you use eye primer. But, some of the light color doesn't show up when you already apply it to your eyes, especially for the white. In my opinion, I don't like the white color in this palette, because my eyes will looks strange when using this color 0__0
(I've take a pic, so you can see the pigmentation of this eyeshadow)

As for the blush on, I love the colors they choose for this palette. Because I can use it for the blush on my cheeks and also for contouring my face <3 and when use it, the color will shows up naturally.

The colors are so GORGEOUS right? and sooo many pastel colors <3 

Stay power = For the stay power, if you use eye primer the colors could be last for almost 12 hours. But for the blush personally I think it only stays for 5 hours.
(I use my makeup on 9am and this pics below taken on 9pm)





Overall, here's the PROS:
-) Affordable, I bought it only IDR 225.000
-) Easy to blend
-) Great pigmentation
-) The eyeshadow's color are well-organized
-) Nice and pretty colors

CONS:
-) Doesn't stays long without primer
-) Not travel friendly
-) The light colors doesn't really shows up

Rating = 9.5/10

Overall Comments,
It's an awesome product, the price are affordable and it has so much colors. So, for beginners I think it will really suites you <3

Thanks for reading! :)
