My First Sociolla Box

Sociolla Box
I always wanted to have a monthly beauty box and last month I saw that Sociolla made a subscription box. So I feel so excited when I receive it this month!

In the box we'll get 3-4 travel size products and 1 full size product. 



This month products that I got are one pair of Lavie lash, one travel size Cottage Kiwi shower gel, one sample size SPF moisturizer and one full size L'Occitane Almond Hand Cream. 

Inside January's Sociolla Box 


I think it is a good bargain to subscribe this beauty box because sometimes I wanted to try a new product but I feel like I'm wasting my money if I buy the full size product and doesn't like it. Also it introduces me to various brand that I may not know before. I can't wait for the next Sociolla Box to arrive. 

I hope you find this blogpost helpfull, have a nice day :)

Travelling in Belitung

In the last blog post, I mentioned that I went for a holiday with my family and we were going to Belitung and Bangka Island. In this blog post I will share about my travel in Belitung Island. 

Belitung is a small island on the south side of Sumatra, Indonesia. My family and I went with an airplane for 1 hour from Jakarta, the capital city of Indonesia.

We stay in BW Suite because it is close to most of the places that we were going to visit in Belitung.

For culinary there are some places that I think worth to visit:
1. Selera Kita Restaurant (Siau Yin)
2. RM Shinta Sari

Fishballs at RM Shinta Sari

3. Dynasty Restaurant
4. Yammian Achoi + kue basah

There are also tourist attractions that I think every visitors should see:
1. Tanjung Tinggi Beach
Tanjung Tinggi

2. Replicate of Sekolah Laskar Pelangi
3. Andrea Hirata's Words Museum

Museum Kata Andrea Hirata

4. Kampoeng Ahok and Ahok's House 
5. Five small islands: Pulau Burung, Pulau Pasir, Pulau Lengkuas, Pulau Kepayang, and Pulau Batu Belayar

6. Kaolin Mining Lake

Overall Belitung has a sunny humid weather with some short rains because it is located in the equator line. Most of the tourist attraction located in the beach and has big rocks, so it is important to wear a nice comfortable shoes. Seafoods are mostly serve in all restaurants and if you are going to visit Belitung, you should order the Fish Balls. Three nights four days is an ideal time to stay in Belitung.

Travel Essentials

I often bring too much products when I went for holiday and I ended using only a few of them. This past weeks I just spent a holiday with my family and I wanted to share things that are essential in my hand bag.

Travel Essentials

1. My first essential is my Samsung Note 4, of course, I always bring it wherever I go. It is so important for communicating, take photos and checking social medias. To accompany my phone I bring its headset along with me too.

2. I also bring my Starbucks planner with me to write down schedules, ideas and things that I wanted to put in my blog. Although I have to type what I wrote to my blog, it is less weight than bring my laptop on holiday.

3. This time I went for a beach holiday so I bring my sunglasses, I got this sunglasses from Zara.

4. On holidays, my lips tend to dry out while I'm travelling because of the weather or dehydrated, this lip treatment from Jurlique saves my lips from chapping and really hydrating.

5. I also love to bring snacks when I travel, this Oat Krunch is my current favorite snack.

6. Last but not least I always bring important documents and tickets in my bag.

I hope this blog post will help you when you are deciding to go for a travel and doesn't really sure what to bring along in your hand bag.

December Favorites

Happy New Year to all of you whom celebrate it! I feel like time flies by, it's 2016 already. Today I wanted to share my last month favorites, that I think it looks very Christmasy..  


December Favorites

The first product to mention is The Body Shop Frosted Plum Sugar Scrub and Shimmer Lotion. The sugar scrub makes my skin smoother and gentle enough not to irritate my sensitive skin. When I went to parties I use the Frosted Plum Shimmer Lotion because it makes me feel so festive.

For make up, I love to use bold red lips for statement because it was the time when you can wear red lips and still look appropriate. To complement the lips usually I use a neutral color for the eyes, but since it is the holiday season, I pair it with shimmering shadows from Too Faced Loves Sephora palette for my party look. Then I use the Shiseido Eyebrow Compact to frame the eyes.

The blush that I use is the Hourglass Ambient Lighting Blush in Mood Exposure that gives my cheek a natural rosy flush. 

Last but not least, to finish my look, I polished my nails with Sephora nail polish in Bloody Satin.

That is it for my December favorites, which I think it also sums up my look on that month. Thank you for reading my blog post and I'm wishing you all a great year ahead!
