Feeling so sorry because cannot update more often as I wished before. But, here we are finally, hello!!
Being back with another review, which this one you cannot missed definitely. I really am so stress out lately, so there is no question why does my skin turn so dull and dry recently. Sadly, I do not have time to eat such a healthy meal or do a quick work out as well. But, last weekend I tried my best to list things I need that I wish It could help my skin condition. 

First of all, since my skin type is a completely dry skin, so I know I actually need more hydration than normal skin does. But angry me who always skip drink more water and sleep earlier. I start to go to bed early and drink more water in a day. I also try to stop using too many skin product as my skincare routine. I mean, I want to give a break to my own skin and let it heals itself as well. But obviously never skip your toner or essence. You cannot leave your skin PH unbalance after washing it up.

I tried this "not so new" product by Bio Beauty Lab, Phyto Power Essence. Which is I never try this kind of product before. So here is below my personal experience using this Essence.
Packaging
I really love simple yet so aesthetic design like this. Not too much coloring but a nude and aesthetic one. You even can see through the rest product inside and also read the product details clearly because of the clean design, love it so much!! But the main point is it has pumping lid which is so hygienic and the bottle is made from plastic, no worries for travelling buddies. The lid is so save.
Ingredients
This is so smart, they even write the ingredients details on the bottle so when you need to layer your skincare you do not have to worry about the product content. It contains Centella Asiatica which can help your sensitive skin heals from redness and help to moisturize as well. It also has Phytoliquid Ginseng which is the key of this product and make it much much more gentle but works better than other essence I ever tried before. It has Niacinamide, Cotton Seed Extract and more.
Product Usage
As it says, it is a pre-serum power essence, which you can apply this essence before your serum after washing your face. You can use one up to three pump for your whole face and neck as well. I personally pump it onto my palms and apply it through out my face and tap it gently no need pads. The thing is even though this essence not wo watery as you ever met but this one is easy to apply and also so quick to absorb into your skin, no sticky feeling after usage. So recommend this one. I use it twice a day after bathing and for my case right now, I do not use any serum after using this product.
Purchase
I can find it easily on so many market place, bot online and offline. I bough mine on their official shop and I got so many discounts, happy me! You can get your own through this link. It has two size of packaging, so if you want to try you can choose the small one. 

Fortunately after having enough bed time, drinking more, eating real food, managing a quick work out once in a week, and using this Phyto Power Essence my redness and dullness are getting better, no more dry and poignant skin. I recently put it before my serum for my skincare routine. I really do recommend you guys to try this Power Essence because it is YES definitely can help moisturize your skin, help to improve your skin texture, and help to brighten it up as well.

Been at home for a long time, finally got my time back to spend much time watching series and movies that I want at anytime. Since 2024 is kinda come back year for so many actors and singers. There are so many concerts and also movies release. One that I cannot miss out is this series titled A Killer Paradox. Nothing else than because I wanna watch Choi Woo Sik acting. I did watch him on Parasite movie, so no surprise that he could figure this character as great as he always does. It is a crime thriller television series that you could watch on Netflix. 

The thing that I love about this series is It only has eight episodes, not too long, and no need to wait the season two. I really like series like this these days because I do not think I have strong memories as when I was younger. So, I might need to re-watch the first season to call back the points. LOL. 

Anyway I only need a day to end this series hehe. Definitely nothing to do right? I will do more ahead since somehow I need stories to enjoy because no body around me could do so recently. I actually do not know other actors who play in this series but however Choi Woo Sik not the only one who act perfectly. Others do the same, perfect portions. 
https://about.netflix.com/en/news/a-killer-paradox-premieres-february-9
Cast

As I mentioned, there is Choi Woo Sik who I have been waiting for. He plays as a young man, Lee Tang, who still on college but seems feeling so hungry for validation of great life. He is doing well, warm family, good friends around, but seems not enough as he always obsessed to go abroad. Long story short, he is in a complicated moment to meet a police, Jang Nan Gam, who well played by Son Suk Ku, great actor I knew from a drama titled My Liberation Notes. Having such a great charisma, suitable to be a detective. While others are Lee Hee Jun, Kim Yo Han, Lee Joong Ok and for more you can check here. 
Setting
Since Lee Tang choose to live separately from his family, the setting at the initial episode is at his boarding house. He rent a room, but seems so pathetic because he is busy to work at night as a freelancer in a mini market. The other setting are everywhere Lee Tang stays, because he need to hide from Jang Nan Gam who diligently keep eyeing him as a murderer. 
https://www.netflix.com/title/81607354
Synopsis

It was starting on a rainy night. A horrible one. Where Lee Tang is walking under the rain to head back home after working. Unluckily he meets a man who is so annoyed him a while a go as the mini market customer. However, the man was drunk. He is lying down under the rain, as Lee Tang find him must be sleeping because drunk too much. While Lee Tang take the next aisle, he meets another man who came together with the annoying man walking in front, Lee Tang yelled at him to take a look of his friend at the previous aisle. But, as the man refuse to help later they both fight instead, the mysterious man keep kicking Lee Tang's stomach. 

Tired of being silent, he recalled his high school moment when he get used to be bullied. He instantly knocks the man's head. Until he die. Did not intend to kill Lee Tang runs away, while the next morning Jang Nan Gam and his team are intensely checking the cameras CCTV around the accident took place. Since that Lee Tang keep moving and moving. However the Police believes the man who sleeping on the street is the suspect, they might fight each other. But the burdensome Jang Nan Gam keep eyeing Lee Tang. Such a strong instinct. So, what makes this murder as a paradox?
Rating
8/10 because everyone successfully deliver the character into live. There are a lot of plot twists as well, also there is a man who came almost in the last of the movie successfully gives an encore. Worth the waiting as the story line is so solid and the character development is perfect.

Oh hello, this time is going to be my very first time do review about hair care. It is because I finally find such a best shampoo for my hair fall problem. I usually try to find new shampoo to use, they actually did help my hair fall problem in the beginning. Definitely reduce my hair fall, but sadly it only worked for about ten times usage, I need to find another shampoo to make my hair fall less again. Such a tiring cycle it was. 

Lately I had my cycle stop here, I randomly choose this Pantene Micellar Shampoo just because the packaging looks so beautiful in pink. Further more I read the ingredients and benefits of this shampoo, I thought it would be perfect to help my hair problem. So, I try it on once I got it. 
Packaging
As I mention above, it is so beautiful in pink, soft pink that I like. it also comes with a pump lid which is so effective to use in bathroom, no need to move it to my own pump bottle. It also comes with big bottle, in a hope I can use it until the last drop, no need to find another one. The bottle made from plastic, so it is still travel safe. 
Ingredients
It mainly contains from rose petals from France Rosa Gallica which rich of vitamin B3 and B5 that could help your dry and dullness (because of sun burn) hair to be smooth and shine at a time. It helps your hair grow better from the scalp. The texture is clear and thick with pink color, it smells so refreshing as well. You can check the details of the ingredients here. 
Product Usage
I usually wash my hair once in two days or everyday when there is special occasion such as after working out or deep cleaning my house, once I feel my scalp so itchy and oily, I will wash it right away in the evening. Just like using the other shampoo, make sure you only apply the shampoo around your scalp with enough amount, no need to use too many product or it will only leave unclean in the end. Once you pour enough water to make your whole hair wet, use two pumps to wash your scalp diligently. Rub it gently and rinse. Do it twice and squeeze it to apply conditioner later. 
Purchase
Well you can find it easy on your favorite super market near your house or shop online on e commerce. I get it from Shopee with special price, about IDR 70k only. It is easy to shop there, because the products are all original with official shop and the delivery is amazing, you will receipt your order within next day with free delivery fee and so many cashback as well. Been my favorite e commerce to shop daily needs and more. Highly recommend to shop there. 

So happy to stop my tiring cycle in changing shampoo monthly. I love how my hair fall problem is getting better. It also make your scalp itchy less even when you sweating a lot. The thing is maybe because the texture is from gel, I had experience with this kind of shampoo, it will make your hair dry. Since I use the conditioner as well, it is still fine to use. So, if you have such a dry hair as mine, you may need the conditioner as well to make it smooth and healthier. Leave a comment below if you have try it or ask me anything you need, have a nice day.

Oh Hello!
Finally got some times to write my review about this series. Such a rare moments to spend all the episodes with my love one. Since he never been into korean movies or drama. What a moment to watch this series together. He pretty enjoys this one. Since the genre is thriller action I guess, he must be love the monster rather than the stars. Lol. I definitely cannot wait this series to be aired, since this is the first project between Park Seo Joon and Han So Hee. I really enjoy it as well. 
This series have two parts, the first one aired on December 22 and the second was on January 5 this year. Such a best choice for Christmast and New Year movie time list. The first part aired the first episode until seventh and the rest was aired as part two. Since I ever watch them both in My Name and Itaewon Class, they were both played such a strong role and even fighting, so it is a great combo to make them both meet in this series. 
We are both watched this series at home with a pack of chips, marathon, as I always do to end a korea drama, the sooner the better to know the ending.

Cast
It is obvious Park Seo Joon and Han So Hee are the main characters in this series. He plays as a well known man in town, who people come to when they need help, both money or information. He earns money from a pawnshop he set up together with some partners he consider as family. People in town come to him as they know Jang Tae Sang (Park Seo Joon role) is the one who have a great relation with the government and other functionaries. Jang Tae Sang is an orphan and ever suffering a lot back then when he was child, so that what makes him wanna help others a lot. While Han So Hee is an independent woman who travel everywhere with her father to find her mother. Her name is Yoon Chae Ok. You will also find old faces such as Kim Hae Sook and Park Ji Hwan as Jang Tae Sang partners. There is also Jo Han Chul as Chae Ok's father. There are also new faces which I just found out, they are Soo Hyun, Woo Ji Hyun, Kang Mal Geum and more, you could check them all here. 
https://www.netflix.com/tudum/gyeongseong-creature
Setting
Since this series show how Korean people suffering from Japanese colonialism, It takes long time a go before Korean independence. There are very make sense how oppression, kidnapping and other crimes happen everywhere, there are also so many Japanese and even most people still speak Japanese. The setting mostly at Jang Tae Sang House, Onseong Hospital, and Maeda House. There are many certain palaces in Onseong Hospital where important things happen, such as underground prison, secret laboratory and underground hall where they let the huge monster stay for more observations. 
Synopsis
It starts when Yoon Chae Ok need to find her mother who did not come back home since he was child, around ten maybe. As she and her father arrived in town where Jang Tae Sang lives, they meet and deal to find someone they are all been looking for, because in other hand Jang Tae Sang also need to find a lady for a Japanese Police, Maeda. As they busy to seek them both, Chae Ok's mother and the lady, a clue said that the lady is in the Onseong Hospital. Where they just know that there is not only for sick people but also consist of prison and suspicious laboratory underground. Once they find the lady inside, they suffered a lot to take her out, because not only fight the Japanese soldiers but also the huge monster they have been observing. 
In other hand Chae Ok finds an artist who draw her mother, in a hope he knows where her mother is. Knowing so many korean stayed in the prison, Chae Ok and her father have the same though, what if her mother is one of them, will she survive?
Rating
8/10 as the story building is so great, the CG also best. But for such a long ten episodes in total, they still wanna make the second season. So, indeed there are so many scenes that are not really important. However the stars and story line help a lot. I expect much more because of the genre but it did not meet my expectation but still one of series that you should watch. Still worth to wait the second season.

Oh hello!
It's been a while since the last time I posted about skincare or makeup review on this blog. So, after such a long time struggling again with my redness I come back with such a better mood to share some of the products I used to treat my very very bad skin condition last year. It was actually getting worse when I had a short vacation to Jogja, it was so sunny and I went to the beach as well. It was the worst plan ever to recover my skin but the best decision ever to enjoy the sunset in such a pretty beach!! 

I even consume some allergic pills to make it much better, I have two types even. I don't think they help me out but I wish they did, so that I had them all until the last shot. I tried to consume vegetables and fruits more and more and stop eating egg (my love) just in case I ate too much egg before. But, my skin is still super itchy and the inflammation is getting worse. So, I decided to replace my skincare one by one, in a hope I could find best formula to recover it. 

First thing first, which I always been thinking to replace my serum, since I do not think It works as the first time I used it. To be noted, the weather was so bad as well, (as I always been struggling at) It was super windy and sunny as well in the morning until afternoon. At night sometimes it was so hot but sometimes worse, super dry and cold, which could make my skin even worse. I tried my best to apply more and more moisturizer, but it cannot help. So, I choose Skintific. I choose the Skintific 10% Niacinamide Brightening Serum, in a hope it could help both moist my skin and brighten it up since it is getting dull as well.


Packaging
I love how it comes with pink packaging, so lovely. It goes with a pumping lid, which it could help me easily to drop the product. Because I think lately using pipette is not efficient anymore, as the product could spilled easily when it is full. The bottle has such a classy color, pink doff one. So that you could see through the remains product inside. The pumping lid so easy to use and does not spill too much product in a pumped. It also covered with clear plastic lid to protect the pumping lid. It is so light and save for traveling. 

Ingredients
obviously it contains Niacinamide. It could help brighten up your skin and moist it at the same time. That is why I need this serum. As an extra moisturizer it also contains Butylene Glycol. I really love how it is not that sticky although it claims as a moisturizer. It is so watery and easier to absorb into your skin. As night skincare it does not feel oily and sticky at all although you layer it with more product. I love it so much. As it layered with sunscreen it could help your makeup flawless instead. 


Product Usage
I use this serum as I always use another serum as my daily use. But this time after using essence at night, I drop a bit more since the weather is drier at night. I use it both at night and in the morning. 

Purchase
As I need to check out the texture, so I got it from sociolla offline store at my town. There was no discount sadly. But, as it is my first trial, I choose the little one. It was arround IDR 122.000. As I already use it until the last drop, it can be used for about two months. 

For me serum would definitely can help my skin a lot or give the worse effect as if it does not suitable for my skin type or skin condition. I get redness, acne and dry easily as if the product I use does not work. But, so glad to see the result the redness starts to calm down, and it left a bit dark spot both in my right and left cheeks. After using Skintific 10% Niacinamide Brightening Serum for about a month, the dark spot was gone. I love how it can help my skin even brighter as well. A month is definitely paid the efforts. I recommend this serum for you who want to recover from acne scar and dull skin too. It is save for sensitive skin like me and could help my makeup stay flawless. It is not greasy at all.

Oh Hello!

Absolutely cannot wait any longer to share my review about this movie. Luckily, when I and my big baby had some days off, there was also great movie to watch, although not so well planned, but in one of some weekends we always had such a great great movie date. After so many things to be handled and through, we finally decided to have another movie date that weekend and also eat something good.

After had my pedicure callus treatment at Nails by Regine, such a comfortable place to have nails treatment in town. The place so small and chic, love the ambience and it is super super clean, that's the important one. It smelled so good too, the crews also so nice and welcome. But since it is very very limited, you have to make appointment before and make sure to come on time. Try to come over guys. Anyway, after having treatment there, we had our big lunch and kinda worry if we are going to be super sleepy during the movie, since our stomach so so full that time. 

I honestly not really expect this movie would be so great or what, since it seemed a romantic comedy movie, so I just wanna watch the movie and chill. Moreover it is korean, my big baby not a big fan of korea, so kinda force him to watch this one with me, Lol.

https://mydramalist.com/article/kang-ha-neul-and-jung-so-min-s-love-reset-to-get-a-chinese-remake
Casts
Did I mention it before? I really want to watch this movie is because I want to watch my all time favorite romantic comedy queen, Jung So Min. Basically I really love korean drama, mostly romantic comedy genre, I watch her on Naughty Kiss, so no wonder, she is still that stunning and play her character perfectly here. I love her on other korean drama Because this is My First Life too, check out my review here. The character she plays this time is a very very independent woman with lovely friends around and such a financially stable family she has, Hong Na Ra, in other hand No Jeong Yeol well played by Kang Ha Neul, is a unemployed man that is have such a small heart, since he has Hong Na Ra, a rich woman beside, he always think he is not really that match and deserve her but also want to life with her so much because he loves her deeply. There are also other casts that played their character perfectly such as Kim Sun Young as Jeong Yeol mother. You can check nother casts here.

Setting
The sets are at the Bar, first time Na Ra and Jeong Yeol meet, at the court office, hospital, ballroom, Na Ra parent's house and Na Ra's house. Indeed so many comedies are happening here. They got married and move to that place to life together as couple. But, since Jeong Yeol is unemployed, while seeking for a job he prepare his lawyer exam too, while Na Ra as a director not really have much time at home to tidy it up. So, the house seems super chaotic, no food prepared, while Jeong Yeol need to be in peace studying for his exam. So many of my favorite horrible scenes happen there. Such as Na Ra who tried to be sweet and helpful, she cook for her husband as a meal before exam but then she burn the food instead!! fiuh~

https://www.popbela.com/career/inspiration/zikra-mulia-irawati/review-love-reset-30-days-konsisten-kocak-hingga-akhir-film
Synopsis
Easy to bet, they are a new couple, young couple that actually not ready enough to be married and have family. Since Na Ra so busy and still reckless at making decision, in other hand, her husband who is still jobless and struggling for his exam, they are both often be in a hard hard argument for such a nonsense thing. Na Ra as a rich person however tried her best to adapt herself into her families in law. However Jeong Yeol's mother keep on her eyes on her and saying nonsense as well. It makes her feel so burden.

Jeong Yeol himself tried his best to understand how Na Ra live at home, coming home late while Jeong Yeol need to prepare his exam himself, no support and help he feels. Somehow there are so many misunderstanding in between that make them both want to end their marriage. The love they feel each other somehow turns into a horrible feelings and some fights instead. 

As the court give them thirty days to reflect to each other in a hope they could calm their emotion down and cancel the separation, something big happen instead. So, they need much more than 30 days actually, either to keep living together as couple or keep focusing on their divorce. 

Rating
9/10 Definitely want to rewatch this movie over and over. I love how Jung So Min plays her character as best as she always does. The massage also such an all time advice about marriage but this movie could bring it in such a fun way, no bossy at all. The comedy is korean kinda comedies, if you like korean drama this one would be a big yes to be on your list. My big baby also had so much fun watching this one, he were laughing during the movie as well as I was. Not sleepy at all, no boring scenes until end. Highly recommend this movie to watch with your best friend or love one.

Oh hello! 

Continuing my previous post, check this one if you have not visit it yet, which when we were both in Bogor, we actually had another place to go. After a very very short time exploring Bogor as much as we could, we tried to leave by train to Jakarta and then headed to Jogja (as he always wanna spend much time at). I pretty enjoyed night trip, although travelling by train definitely need extra energy to carry our luggage ourselves but somehow I love it most. 

Spending much more time in Jogja definitely refreshed our mind. Well, the sun was out all day, but it did not ruin my mood, Lol. We had enough time to eat a lot and visit places we always want to be. Not very stick into our itineraries but it went much better instead. 

Here are the recap of our trip.















Feeling so much better after this not so well planned trip to Jogja, since we had chance to go to the beach, galleries, markets, and places with good foods. Definitely a YES again to be back, if there is another opportunities to escape ahead. Gonna mingle more with the slow living of Jogja at night. Having more ice cream and sate ahead. Capturing much much more moments together for sure (so glad there was a foreigner who kept talking and asking for a help to take some pictures of her in a gallery, so she also gave some helps back, thank you!!)
