Simple Dream Catcher!


Dream catcher is originated from native American culture to protect the sleeper from bad dreams.

The net in middle will catch both good and bad dreams, they will send the good dreams trough the feather to the sleeper (I don't have feather at home now). The bad dreams will stay in the net until next mornings sun rise and then it will disappear.

I am not sure how the original one should exactly be like, but there are many peoples that are using it as a accessories now a days and I won't expect these to work even if a real dream catcher  really helps with bad dreams...


I watched a few Youtube videos online on how to make one, but I did not follow any of them all the way. I was wondering where to get the metal circle and thin rope for the net. 

Then I remember I had some round bracelet from when I was a kid, and they are in great size for the dream catcher and I suddenly found a thin rope in our house... 

I don't really know what that rope was supposed to be used for, but it works for me anyway! I also have some beads that I got from my auntie when I was younger and found some that suits my dream catcher!


In case you want to try making one!

What's needed:

 Some beads
One metal circle
Thin rope
Glue
Feather

(Suppose to hang feather on these rope that are hanging down, but I don't have it)

You can use it as a decoration at home or use it as a necklace!

I am planning to make one more after I found another rope!
(Thin rope is the only thing I am missing now...)

[Beauty Tips] Use Electric Toothbrush To Exfoliate Your Face


Have you ever heard about this before?

I know there are many beauty blogger or youtuber that already posted about this, but I did not know about the tooth brush idea from other peoples before I did it myself and then searched online if other peoples have done it before and if they got any great results. 

I found out that many peoples loved it and find it to be quite useful and effective!


How To Use:

- Make the face wash into bubbles and apply into your face

- Place the electronic toothbrush lightly over your skin 

- Move around in circle motions 

- Don't press the brush against your face, it can be too harsh for your skin!
Just place it lightly above !

- Recommend to use it once a day!


The idea is from clarisonic mia 2
Photo taken from http://www.clarisonic.com
This product looks quite like a electric toothbrush and that's why so many beauty bloggers started to try with our electric toothbrush instead of paying 159 $

I have not tried the clarisonic one, but I have heard from other about the biggest difference is that clarisonic is much softer than a electronic toothbrush. So I would recommend to use the softest one you can get! But I have quite sensitive skin and using the medium brush without any problem.

But because it's actually harsher for the skin, so instead of two times. 
I only use it once a day with a face wash!

I have used the electronic toothbrush for almost one week now and here is what I think


Pros:
Exfoliate skin
Makes skin softer
Remove more dirt than with hand
Absorb other products better afterwards
Glowing skin
Can just use the one you have at home and only change the head!
Better blood circulations on your face

Cons:
Nothing yet!

[Beauty Review] Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred ( 10th Day! )

Before the shred

10 days after

If you have not read about the 30 days shred in my previous post
you should take a look into it HERE

There is not much difference on these pictures for now... But I have already lost 1 kg!

I hope there will be a more obvious result on my 20th days !

I skipped this shred for two days, because I went hiking instead and I already got really tired after I got home. I also think that I already exercised  well for hiking 2-3 hours on that day...

Although there is not much difference yet, I can feel that the muscles are building up from the inside. Building more muscles means they will eat up more calories and fat for me! Every time after the work out, I will sweat a little and it's quite tiring. 

But you will feel great after the workout! 

 I will start to work on level 2!

[Clothes] One Of A Kind Hoodie in Black


This hoodie is featured in one of G-dragons music video. If you don't who is G-dragon, he is just a popular idol in Korea and a fashionista.

I bought this from E-bay and it cost 13.49 + 7.99 for shipping worldwide.

I was not sure which size I should order, because I don't want my hoodie to be tight and want it to be a little oversize. So I was struggled to pick M or L! Then I also struggled to pick black or white!

But the one featured on the music video was black and I won't need to worry too much over getting my clothes too easily dirty! (Yeah... I used to buy a lot of clothes in white color before...)

M: Chest 100cm x Length 68cm


Here are some pictures with a closer look and the inside of the hoodie!

I only tried it once for taking the pictures from above, but I feel that I picked the right size for me and it feels comfortable to wear it! 

What do you think?

No Smell
Helps makeup stay better on your skin
Cheap 
Good texture of the sheet

[Review] Holika Holika Snail Cream


I bought this snail cream at Seoul in one of Dongdaemun's Holika Holika shop.
The sales recommended me this, because I have some redness in my skin and he said that this product can remove it. 

Snail Cream use a extract called "Mucin" that are taken from the slime from the snails, that have a high renewal energy. They claimed this product can removes dull skin colors and skin troubles. The time you are finish using with the third bottle, your skin should stay clean...

Application: 
Apply after skin toner
Mix small amount of cream with 2 drops of "Mucin"

Claimed Effect After Using:

1st bottle
 Skin glowing

2nd  bottle
 Keep your skin resilient

3rd bottle
Stay moisturize, smooth, clean and clear 

To be honest, I only used up one bottle and I don't see any difference so far. I should have used up all to make sure if it helps me or not. But personally I think this cream is not moisturize enough for my combination and sensitives skin... I have never found one gel textured cream that are good for me, so it will be better if you don't have any problem with gel texture cream.

Pros:
Pretty package
Light perfume smell (I like the smell)

Cons: 
Not moisturize enough for me
(but gel cream never worked for me)

I would rate this 

3/5

[Beauty Review] Jillian Michaels 30 Day Shred (START)


This is a workout program by Jillian Michaels, that you will get fit in 30 days.
There have been many reviews saying this work really good for them!

She have made videos on 3 levels
1 week = 1 level up

I want to try this out myself too, since I always had problem to get fit.
 I don't dare to say that I am fat, many friends will dislike me for saying that. But I have some fat that are spread out unevenly... 

You can see that my thigh is too thick to compared with other area and I have a lot of stomach fat!
 (really visible when sitting down)

Since it will be a little hard to see on pictures if it's only a little difference, so I will take measurement weekly and tell you about it on the last post (I am shy) or maybe before that...

I am going to take a full body picture on each Monday for 3 weeks!

I think I will get more motivated to do it when I am posting everything up, so I cannot make any excuses and suddenly stop the whole work out program. 

If there is not difference on next weeks picture, you can kindly tell me to work harder!!

You can join me too!!




Sorry, that many comments below looks weird... I tried using another widget, it did not work for me and changed all of your guys comment to my name....

[Tips] How to make eyeliner stay on all day!

Okay, a typo... but I am too lazy to fix it...

I have really oily eyelid, so normally they eyeliner won't stay more than 3-4 hours and then it will smudge away and sometimes make my eyes look like a panda. So I have stopped using eyeliner because of that ...

But recently I figured out you can make eyeliner stay on all day! 
I am so happy that it works so great for my oily eyelid!
