1st Experience in Make-up

Waktu TK, aku tomboy & hiperaktif (beda bgt ama skrg) so mamaku pikir daripada aku pulang selalu dengan rambut, muka, baju berantakan & badan luka-luka karena sering berkelahi sama anak-anak cowok di kelas :p akhirnya mama putuskan aku ikut les ballet biar agak cewek dikit. Hehe..

So, I attended Marlupi Ballet Academy (MDA) Surabaya since I was 5 years old. Tiap beberapa saat ada pementasan baik di pernikahan, acara TV maupun pentas tahunannya MDA. There I encountered make-up stuff.

Kulitku termasuk ngga bandel waktu kecil tapi mamaku trauma sama kulitnya sendiri yg acne-prone, jadi akhirnya aku pake make-up mama, which was CLINIQUE

I used :

1. CLINIQUE Clarifying Makeup Clear Skin Formula # 12 (I think it's d/c-ed now)

2. CLINIQUE Superpowder Double Face Powder # 01 Matte Ivory (Until now)

3. CLINIQUE Kohl Shaper for eyes eyeliner in Blackened Pewter (I switch to liquid liner from Borjouis, but I'm gonna try Bobbi Brown's gel eyeliner. Thx to my good friend, Beth aka Lizvan ;) )

4. CLINIQUE Soft-pressed Powder Blusher in Pink Blush

5. CLINIQUE High Impact Lip Colour

Wewww..Mama maniak bgt ama brand satu ini! -_-'

For the foundie, it has creamy texture with no fragrances, so for a kid like me, it was gross but later, I really thank my mom for introducing me to such allergy-tested cosmetic line

. Pas udah agak dewasa & mulai akrab ama pimple & acne scars, aku baru nyadar kalo coverage dan blendability-nya foundie kesayanganku ini awesome!

For the powder, which was a 2-way cake one. It also has no fragrances. Smooth result, oil control was great, no strange feeling although I dance until I sweat and .. No allergy! Yay!

For the eyeliner, again it's allergy-tested so I had no complain at all. It glides easily but smudgeable. Blackened Pewter itu warnanya abu-abu, so it gives a smoother look than the black one.

For the blusher, mama always choose pink for me -_-' Natural finish, not really pigmented so she had to apply to me 2-3 strokes. Allergy free too :)

Lipstiknya.. I just took a little with my finger and rub it allover my lips because I hate wearing lipstick. It makes me feel older :P Walau akhirnya kl ada shooting, Mama dgn senang hati makaikan ke aku T.T Oh iya, lipstiknya ga long wearable sih, ngecap di mana-mana termasuk ke kostum nariku sampai tante Marlupi marah :D

I can't remember about the eyeshadow though. Kayanya mama makein blushernya buat eyeshadow juga de, so I can imagine that I looked funny with pink eyeshadow and pink cheek

Anyhoo...

CLINIQUE was my first love before my next adventure in make-up range and it also recommended by my dermatologist, dr. Benny Abdullah, SpKK. It's trully allergy free but it's a bit pricey for me. But it's a good investment though for those who has sensitive skin :)
