(UPDATE) Weight Lost

1 minggu, turun 4,5 kg. YIPPIE!

Trying to Lose Weight

Turunin berat badan?? Susah kawan-kawan, dan ini merupakan salah satu topik emosional dan bikin cranky berat tiap kali nginget berat badan dan liat timbangan.

Jadi gini, gue itu terlahir mungil, prematur, kecil masa kehamilan dan menghabisan lebih dari separuh umur gue being underweight. Terlahir cuma 1900g (bayangin megang 2 plastik gula 1kg, itupun gulanya masih lebih berat), jadi anak kerempeng semasa SD, SMP, SMA, bahkan kuliah tahun awal-awal. Dan emang pas masih bocah susah banget makannya. bayangin pas masih bocah bisa bilang kenyang setelah makan 2 sendok nasi, itupun harus di bujuk2 dulu, nyemil pun gue ngga suka cobak. Cuma mau minum susu coklat, sehari bisa minum 3 gelas susu coklat, kalau dipikir-pikir ini kaya buat survival banget, ga ada susu coklat mungkin gue ga bakal makan apa-apa kali ya. Sayuran? boro-boro. Cuma sayur jenis tertentu yang mau gua lahap itu pun dalam jumlah sedikit. Ini terjadi dari bocah - lulus SD. Masuk SMP udah banyakan dikit makannya dan udah lebih bervariasi (tapi tetep underweight). Masuk SMA, porsi makan ditambah, frekuensi makan nambah bisa 4-5x makan dalam sehari , mungkin karena ada efek malu punya badan kerempeng. Yup, bisa dibilang saya minder jadi anak kurus yang keliatan kurang gizi, disaat temen-temen saya (yang cewe udah mulai berisi ala-ala soon to be women pada umumnya). I had no curve whatsoever, cuma papan lurus hehe. Pas SMA, bayangin aja, gue  bisa sarapan di rumah, nasi dan lelaukannya atau roti, dan sampai sekolah sebelom masuk kelas masih bisa nyemil apa dulu gitu kek, jam 10an istirahat pertama, jajan lagi dong, istirahat makan siang? makan berat lagi dong, pulang sekolah? ya makan lagi (sebelom pulang ke rumah) dan nanti di rumah masih bisa makan lagi, lagi dan lagi. Apakah berat badannya naik? Tentu tidak. Sekolah 3 tahun (dengan pola makan begitu) bisa naik 1-2 kg aja udah syukur banget. Pengaruh aktivitas? Hmm, gue main futsal sih 1-2 kali seminggu, but that's it, paling cuma lari-lari 2-3 jam per minggu, dikit kan aktivitasnya haha.

Masuk kuliah masih cungkring at 43kg, pola makan masih sama, nah yang ini lumayan banget 3,5 tahun kuliah bisa naik 5kg, Ini udah ideal banget mukanya udah segeran ngga kaya anak kelaparan lagi. Damn I was hot at the moment, I got appropriate lady lumps here and there, ideal body. Oiya malah saya sempet join membership di Fitness Centre ternama dan lumayan rutin olahraganya biar fit gitu. Lalu memasuki masa koass, That's when the nightmare happened, berat badan melejit nambah 9 kg lagi, sedangkan olahraga udah ngga bisa serutin dulu karena banyak kesibukan. Dan ini berlangsung sampai sekarang saya sudah menginjak 6xkg, sedih ya. Mungkin karena faktor umur nambah otomatis metabolisme pelan-pelan makin berkurang, Mau keep up aktivitasnya juga susah, sesering apapun saya olahraga, tetep aja susah baik ke berat normal lagi :(

So, here I am, mencoba kembali kurus, bukan apa-apa, biar kerasa lebih sehat, dan ngerasa PD aja, bukan cuma untuk ngerasa okeh diliat orang, tapi to feel good about myself. Ini minggu pertama nih ngurangin makan. Nothing extreme, cuma ngurangin porsi aja, dan menghindari nasi (karena saya suka banget makan nasi, jadi emang harus di rem-rem nih kalo nanti menjadi-jadi doyannya, ujung-ujungnya craving. Olahraga? Yup, Olahraga juga tapi memang ngga intense, karena saya sendiri punya HNP cervical (bahasa awamnya saraf kejepit di daerah leher), jadi mau ngga mau memang olahraga kaya lari, dan angkat-angkat beban harus dihindari biar ngga membebani titik tumpu di tulang belakang, Tapi karena mau ningkatin masa otot,  saya angkat beban sih dikit-dikit, moderately, dengan beban yang bearable repetisi - set ngga banyak. Untuk cardio, karena ngga boleh lari (treadmill whatsoever) jadi digantiin sepeda statis, moderate juga tentunya ngga boleh sampe maksa. 

sekian pendahuluan program turun berat badan. Besok-besok dilanjutin update progressnya, kalau sekarang masih emosional ;)

March 2015 (Mini) Haul!

Helloooo...


Lama tak jumpa, saking rempongnya sama kerjaan jadi ga bisa ngupdate blog :'(

SOOO, HERE IT IS. HAUL POST!
FYI, Ini pertama kalinya bikin haul post, jadi sebenernya agak bingung harus mulai darimana? hehe

Belanjaan Maret! Yay!!

okay jadi ini kurang lebih belanjaan (kosmetik) bulan maret, dikit yah... jadi kita sebut saja mini haul hihi o_O

So let's see what I got here:

1. Covergirl Outlast Stay Fabulous 3 in 1 Foundation shade 842 Medium Beige. Akhirnya punya juga foundie ini. beli nya sekitar 190 atau 200 ribu, lupa pas nya berapa hehe.

2. Maybelline Hypersharp Liner. beli di SOGO Central Park Rp. 85,000. Berasa mahal beli ini, dulu cuma 75 ribu perasaan. ini udah di pake beberapa kali, Fine brush tipped, katanya waterproof, tapi kenyataannya ngga :( kurang opaque juga pas dipake. So I won't repurchase later.

3. Sariayu Shimmering Powder. harganya 60ribuan.  Beli ini karena kepepet mau kondangan tapi highlighter gatau kemana. daaannn jelek banget pas dipake, very powdery, too shimmery, berasa shimmer nya chunky banget

4. wet n wild megalast lipstick. Ini yang paling bikin happy. Aku beli 2 shade: Ravin' Raisin (dark plum) dan Just Peachy (Light Peach). Ravin' Raisin sih yang paling cakep, kalau Just Peachy berasa terlalu light buat kulitku, mungkin bakal beli lip pencil yang agak gelap kali ya buat base nya.

5. I Love Makeup : I am Powerfull palette, Ini UK brand subline nya Makeup Revolution. belum terlalu ngehits di Indonesia sih, tapi udah banyak juga review dari brand makeup revolution ini di Youtube. Brand ini terkenal dengan Dupe produk highendnya yang luar biasa mirip, dengan harga miring tentunya. Ok back to the palette. jadi palette ini isinya ada 6 Lilac - Purple tones eyeshadow (2 matte, 4 shimmer) + 1 Lipstick (dark berry shade). lipsticknya udah coba di swatch dan ciamik banget. eyeshadownya berasa buttery banget. Can't wait to use this!

Ok, sekian haul bulan ini. Just comment down below if you want a in-depth review of one of these product

[review] Revealed Palette

Hello Beauties! Long time no see, eh?

So today I will be reviewing a not-so-new palette from coastal scent "REVEALED PALETTE" 

Actually I've been having and using this palette for about 3 months or so, and I have to say that I'm in Love with this lil guy. this palette comes in 2 versions (Revealed and Revealed 2) I didn't have the 2nd one at moment, I can't really tell what's it like. But i do heard some great review about it, and  a lot beauty bloggers say that the 2nd one is also a close dupe to naked family (UD Naked 3)

Revealed Palette (excuse the pic's quality as only I took it with my cellphone :p )

The palette itself is really slim and light which is great for travelling or storing, and it has a magnetic closure on the lid, which is nice. And contains of 20 shades of shimmers and a few mattes (there are only 4 mattes, that's great enough for me, I'm not a big fan of matte eye shadows as they sometimes looks dull on me, I don't know why)

WHAT A BEAUTIFUL PALETTE

SWATCHES indoor light w/o flash

Shade 13:  A deep taupey grey shade

Shade 14: Darker version of shade 12

Shade 15: Medium rose gold with a copper undertone

Shade 16:  This is a little like Shade 13 only more on the brown side

Shade 17:  like shade 15 only more on the coppery side

Shade 18:  A Deep dark brown with a slight golden shimmer

Shade 19:  A Deep Silver

Shade: 20:  A Deep matte black, this one is more on the chalkier side, but still great if you can blend it nicely

Pro:

- great packaging (slim, lightweight, travel friendly)

- affordable, great alternative to naked palette

- versatile, from simple daily look to smoky look

- the shimmers are super pretty, a really nice satin finish, super creamy

- with primer, this definitely stay for at least 6-7 hours even if you have oily eyelids

Con:

- no mirror

- Some of the matte shade are not as good (e.g : the matte black)

overall: 4/5

Things/person that excite me (or make me happy)

I am a crazy kid! I giggle at simple stuff, I scream full of joy over small things. Sometimes for no particular reason or simply because the mood was good. I get kinda.. manic-ish like a lot, most of days especially when I have/meet these stuff/person.

First on the list: My boyfriend. We've been together as an item for about 3.5year now I guess. But I've known him for  6 years. We met on second day at college. I don't like him at first, because of his cocky-ness (he still does). But before I realize, we had grown closer to each other then fell in love (awww..) we still fighting each other too. Almost Daily. But, whenever I saw him, my heart still jump happily!

My cousins. They were my first bestfriends. Eventhough we live apart from each other, miles away from each other. We still keep in touch. And seeing them, it's like seeing your old friends that you miss so much. PS: I have 20ish cousins with girls my age as majority.

Make up. I LOVE MAKEUP. Higher end, drugstore ones. I Love 'em all. Equally. For me trying new cosmetic feels like meeting new people (interesting colourful people). Once, I saw this new make up brand that I wanted to try so much I couldn't sleep. The magnet is so strong, too strong. 

Picnic. Who doesn't?  Seating underneath a tree with your love ones. Took a nap. Drinking lemonade. Lovely. That reminds me, it's been a while. Hoping that this rainy season will be over soon. So I can go out and having picnic time. 

Baking. I'm not a baker. 50% of my baked goods were failures. But still. I love to try new cake recipe. 

Get yourself ready, the last one is going to be weird. Washing the dishes. It calms my crazy nerve. This is indeed, one of my favorite house chore. 

How about you? What's the simple thing that makes you happy?
