Tesselaar Tulip Festival

Hey everyone~

Most people love this season and of course, it's spring.

Maybe some of you already know that I stayed at Melbourne for my university and Australia have opposite season with some countries, such as US, Japan, Korea, etc.. 

So, we have spring starting from September..

At the end of September, my friends were asking me to visit Tulip Festival and because I got curious, I decided to went to the Tulip Farm.

Many families, friends, and couples were visiting this place. There were many attractions, stalls, and foods.

The theme for that weekend was Dutch. Therefore, people were dressing up and dance, while the foods and shops also supporting the theme. 

After doing a quick tour throughout the place and eat, we finally went to see the Tulip.

and i saw an interesting statue, so I took the picture. lol.

As you can see, there were lots of pretty Tulip with different range of colors, from white, red, purple, yellow, pink, etc etc...

Definitely a good place to refresh, calm my mind, enjoy the nature, and take pictures (maybe just for some people, like me). LOL.

Well, this trip took me 2 hours from the city to reach this place. At first, it was kinda boring and tiring, but that's all vanished as I reach the place. 

If you've got nothing much to do, you can visit this place (on spring definitely).

Last time, they've got different theme for every weekend. Hopefully there will be another event this year, but you can check their website :)

See you on my next post,

thanks for reading

Lolita Ice Cream Party

Hello, these weekend was totally a blast to me and I'm still really happy right now.

So, yesterday I attend Ice Cream Party, hosted by the 3 admins from  Lolita Fashion Indonesia .

The venue is in Magnum Cafe, Grand Indonesia (Jakarta).

 After we finished eating our dishes, there's 2 mini game.

The first one is about predicting brand clothes. 

In this game, we were given some dresses pictures and we should write down the brand name.

and finally I win! lol. I didn't expect at all. *dancing*

Usually I like to visit some of the brand clothes websites such as Innoncent World, Baby, Angelic Pretty, etc. Each of them actually have specialty in the design, so based on their own specialty I tried to predict~ Luckily most of my prediction is true (like 3/4 of the question), so I get the prize :')

This bow headband is from Baby The Star Shines bright, one of my favorite Lolita store <3

Among all of my handmade lolita items, I'm so happy to finally have my very first favorite Lolita brand item.

Next game's winner <3 Congrats Sasya! :D

About 12 lolitas are coming in this meet up. 9 members + 3 admins.

Here's their coordinate pictures.

Beautiful day - Anime Festival Asia day 2 (7/9/13)

Yo~ Hello everyone XD

Actually before posting this entry, I want to share product reviews. However, I just couldn't wait till the time I can share my happy memories on Anime Festival Asia. All of them are a SUPER AWESOME experience for me. You'll know why later, so keep reading :D

As some of you already read my previous post, I planned to cosplay as Diamond from Sakizou artworks. I completely finished the dress on friday, H-1 to the event :P LOL.

credits to kamego

Many friends were coming to the event, because it's one of the biggest event in Indonesia. Too bad I can't took photos with all of my friends, the event were super hectic. I can't move freely TT^TT

Also, here's a cosplayer who won AFA Single competition this year. She's my friend too~

Her cosplay are so freakingly awesome <3

With cute Angie, one of the cosplay judges :D

Last but not least, full body pictures of me. I don't find any spot to take a picture, so finally car park was my last choice. HAHAHA.

Actually I'm thinking to do some photo session with this outfit, since it's one of my masterpiece (currently). LOL

Also, next time I'm going to show the detailed part of this dress. There are beads, draperies, cameos, etc..

Too bad I only spent like 4 hours on Saturday. However that's fine, I could save up my energy for Sunday~ hehe.

More surprise will be on my next post :D

to be continued....

Dr. Jart+ V7 launching event

Hello ~~~
Finally AFAID event has finished, so it means my busy routine for making my costume is done :P
I will post about my experience on AFAID too on the next post.

and today's post will be about an event that I attend 2 weeks ago. I was invited by Dr. Jart+ through my email and I'm super excited! I never thought that I'll be invited to an event, so I rather shocked when I received the email. hahaha.

On that day, I was rushing to come on time, because I don't come with my friend and I don't know have ideas who'll come that day. Therefore, it will be better if I came before the presentation started or else, I will look so stupid because I confused what should I do when I enter the venue.

*PS: Some photos below aren't in a good quality, at that time something goes wrong with my camera. However, I do my best to edit it~ Hopefully you still can enjoy this post :)

---------------------------------------

When I arrived, there were some staffs waiting for us (the guest), so they welcome me and ask me to write my profile in the guest book. Next, I went to take a picture as a souvenir~

Inside the room, I looked around and as expected, I don't know anyone in the room. *so sad TT^TT*
Then I decided to take a tour and see the products Dr. Jart have...

Here's a collection which will be presented in today's event..
V7 series

They also prepared some snacks for us before the presentation began.
I had Assam Milk Tea with Big bobba and ddukbokki (made by the lab). This "Nai Cha" drink shop actually one of my favorite and I was amazed. Who would wonder if there will be snacks which is as good as that? hahahaha.

First of all, Vera Liono  (Brand Manager of Dr. Jart in Indonesia) told us the background the background of Dr. Jart. This brand launched in 2004 and distributed to many country such as Japan, Hongkong, US, England, Thailand, Phillipine, and Singapore.


Secondly, Dr. Kevin A Maharis (Dermatologist) gave us some tips and trick to choose a good skin care for us. Some important things which I noted are..

1.  Toner is not a must, so it's your choice whether to use it or not. Also, take a good look at the ingredients, if you see a word 'astringent' DON'T USE IT! Because it means the toner contains alcohol which is not good for your skin.
2. For sun protection, you will need products which contains SPF (to block UV B) and PA++ (to block UV A). Most people, including me usually only know we only need the SPF for sun protection.
3. For men, don't choose product which is specialized for men, because usually it will dry your skin. (If you can, tell your friends and relatives, because most people don't know about it)

and finally, the presentation began..

This brand are free of artificial scents, coloring, preservatives, and alcohol. Therefore, basically it's suitable for people who has sensitive skin. 

Currently Dr. Jart+ has launched 4 series. They are:

• V7 Series (toner, serum, emulsion, spot treatment, Beauty Balm)

It's specialized for the regeneration of damaged skin and contains 7 vitamin.

• World Best BB

There are 5 kinds of BB cream which you can choose based on skin types.

• Most Moist ( Mist, Serum, Gel Cream, Sleeping Mask, Hydrogel Mask, Blemish Base)

It's free from artificial preservatives and made from KIMCHI (This sound a lil funny to me. LOL)

The focus is to keep the moisture of our skin.

• Ctrl-A (Spot corrector, Sun protector, spot out, moisturizer, toner, Serum, liquid foam, spot cover, beauty balm)

This series will be suitable for those who has acne skin.

Demo Skincare

The right step for using V7 series are...
V7 Turnover Booster (Toner) - V7 Renewal Serum - V7 Relief Vita Drop (emulsion) - V7 Vitacream (spot treatment) - V7 Beauty Balm (known as BB cream)

Personally I think Dr. Jart+ is an interesting product. I've tried the toner and serum from V7 collection and I could feel the cool sensation to my skin, which also made my skin moist~
However, the downside of this brand is they doesn't provided color option for all BB cream. I've tried the BB cream and it's only suitable for light skin :/ Luckily I have light skin so I could try using the BB cream. hahaha XD


Last, when I wanted to go home, they gave me a goodie bag. I was rather shocked when I opened the bag, because all of the products are in real size :O They're so generous :') LOL.
So, here's the products that I got :D

The review will be on a separate post. hehe.

Thanks for reading <3
