Cold Hands, Warm Heart: 2017

November 2017

Bali will always be the sweetest escape. Here, I am gonna divided my stories into two sections, Tourist spots and Culinary.

1. Tourist Spots

Uluwatu - Kecak Dance Performance

My very first time and it was worth the wait. The admission fee to enter the venue was only IDR 20,000 and then you have to pay more for only IDR 100,000 to watch kecak dance. The show started around six pm while the sun ready to set on the west. Believe me, it was such an intriguing experience.

Sundays Beach Club

Private Island? Hidden Paradise? That's what people called it. The admission fee was IDR 300,000 includes IDR 150,000 food and beverage credit.

Pro's:

- Clean Beach (Since not everyone can enter)

- They providing water Sports equipment (Kayaks, Snorkeling, Paddle Boards)

- They usually setting up the bonfire at night but unluckily it was raining at 5 when I was there :(

- Good place for sunbathing and also for honeymoon hmm

Con's:

- Pricey food, honestly IDR 150,000 will only get you one medium pizza and that's it. Lol.

Conclusion is, everything was okay. Pricey food was the only thing that bugs me.

Ubud Market

I wasn't planning to shop in Bali, so I didn't really enjoy here. They just selling some stuffs with high price. This isn't a place where you can being splurge as much as you want, I suggest.

Jimbaran Market

We went to this market and sought for fish, prawns, squid for dinner at Jimbaran Bay. I can't give any guidance about the price range since I rarely go to traditional market.

2. Culinary

Seminyak Street - Motel Mexicola

It is a unique colorful cafe that served mexican food and alcohol with mexicali vibes.

No comments

Basically, I love how korean know how to apply no-make-up-make-up-look properly.

And I am a fan of red color for lipstick, but red is too bright for daily make-up. For some people, it is inappropriate to wear bold-red lipstick to work.

It depends on your occasion, if you work in beauty industry they will appreciate your color shades.

But if you want to have a meeting with client, red isn't a right choice. (Again I repeat, It depends on your work-environment). Because it happened to me once, when I had an unexpected meeting with a client and My boss asked me to change my red lipstick with a natural one, like pink or nude color. He thought (Yes, My Boss is a "He" who cares enough with appearance) red was too vivid.

So, how to apply a little bit red on your lips without any-bad-impression of visualising?

Try to wear liptint instead. I tried several korean liptint brand lately, So I am gonna spell out here...

Innisfree - Eco Fruit Tint (Cherry)

It's watery, and will give you a bit natural light shades, glossy and shiny. But not last longer than 30-45 minutes nor after you eat. You need to apply it over and over again.

Shades ★★☆☆☆
Moisture ★★★☆☆
Longevity ★★☆☆☆

Tony Moly - Tint Delight (Shades 02)

The most popular liptint among korean girls. This is my daily liptint. Pigmented, Bold and bright! But you need to be careful to apply this. One rub on your bottom lip and then starts to blend with
your upper lip, because it'll dry easily.

Shades ★★★★☆
Moisture ★★★☆☆
Longevity ★★★★☆

Tony Moly - Liptone Get it Tint (Shades 08)

The packaging is so cute, it is a pantone theme! At first I thought the color would be sooo reddd
but it turned out pink. It stains for a while but when I eat something greasy, everything is gone.

Shades ★★★☆☆
Moisture ★★★☆☆
Longevity ★★★☆☆

Etude - Dear Darling (Cherry Red)

Natural and sheer, the color not too bright, and wear off easily. It looks kind of transparent on the
lips but still has pretty pinkish red color.

Shades ★★★☆☆
Moisture ★★★★☆
Longevity ★★★☆☆

The Saemmul - Real Gel Tint (Burgundy)

This one is also pigmented and longlasting but it'll leaves stains on your lip. Don't make it to be messy as it is hard to clean up. Dont apply it fully on your lip.

Shades ★★★★★
Moisture ★★★★☆
Longevity ★★★★★

Peri Pera - Ink (02 Get the eye)

I love the gradient after you apply and blend it on your lip. It is not too bright nor too soft. The color is pink and red undertones.

Shades ★★★★★

Moisture ★★★★☆
Longevity ★★★☆☆

So, it depends on you. If you like natural-look, try innisfree eco fruit tint and etude dear darling instead, when you can applied on your fully lip. My choice goes to tonymoly delight tin and The saemmul real gel tint!
