Perawatan Kulit di Pagi dan Malam Hari

Come back with beauty information guys ..... :)

Kemarin waktu jalan - jalan ke Gramedia Semarang, banyak sekali nemuin buku - buku diskonan, tersebar di halaman depan toko Gramedia dari harga 10ribu sampai buku - buku diskonan 25-0% ada disitu. Dan aku menemukan buku, eh...bukan aku sih yang nemuin, tapi Mama aku :P hehehe. Beliau menemukan buku berjudul "Buku Pintar Perawatan Kulit" seharga 15ribu rupiah.. Murah kan, tebel bukunya, bagus bahan kertasnya , tapi yang lebih penting bermanfaat isi bukunya. Hahaha

Dan sekarang aku mau mengulas sedikit informasi yang aku dapat dari buku itu, yaitu salah satunya tentang bagaimana perawatan kulit di pagi dan malam hari :D

Nah perlu kita ketahui kalo perawatan kulit itu WAJIB hukumnya. Hahaha. Terutama karena cuaca dan lingkungan yang dapat membuat kulit kita mengalami penuaan dini. Menurut buku yang aku baca, ada beberapa hal yang bisa kita lakukan untuk membuat kulit tetap cantik. Dimulai dari  perawatan di pagi dan malam hari. Ini dia, check it out!

PERAWATAN PAGI HARI

• Awalilah hari - harimu dengan mandi pagi untuk menyegarkan kulit, tubuh, dan pikiran. Buat anak - anak kos yang jarang mandi, ini perlu diingat ya :P . Hahaha (menasehati diri sendiri)
• Oleskan krim pelembab kulit dan pijat secara lembut selama 2 - 3 menit untuk melancarkan peredaran darah. Pijat pijat...pijat pijat....ehm....
• Bila sering beraktivitas di luar, sebaiknya memakai krim yang mengandung tabir surya. O ya, ini informasi yang pernah aku baca juga sih di sebuah artikel. Meskipun kita ga berada di luar, harus tetep pake pelembab dan sunblock juga untuk melindungi kulit wajah kita :)
• Gunakan masker selama 10 - 15 menit untuk membuat wajah lebih segar. Menurutku sih, lebih bagus kalo pake masker yang alami - alami aja, kayak buah gitu ^^ .
• Tempelkan sendok berbahan metal yang telah didinginkan di kulkas untuk mengurangi mata yang sembab.It does work :)
• Minum air atau teh hangat untuk menjaga metabolisme tubuh.

PERAWATAN MALAM HARI

• Jangan lupa untuk membersihkan riasan sebelum tidur. MUST >.< Jangan sampai tidur dengan muka penuh make up atau tanpa bersih - bersih wajah ya. Bisa jadi sarang jerawat tuh & cepat menimbulkan keriput juga ntar - ntarnya . Jadikan ini sebagai RITUAL MALAM. Hehehe
• Gunakan krim malam untuk membantu perbaikan kulit, karena di malam hari inilah kulit cepat menyerap nutrisi , dan jangan lupa untuk memijat wajahmu untuk melancarkan peredaran darah dan membuang racun. Ini juga ritual malam nih :P
• Tidur 6 - 8 jam tiap malam. Jangan begadang - begadang mulu. (Sulit nih buat aku >.<)
• Saat beraktivitas di siang hari, kurangi makanan yang mengandung garam., karena garam mengikat air dan dapat membuat wajahmu terlihat kusam saat bangun tidur

Itu guys sedikit informasi yang aku dapat dari buku yang baru aku baca.... :D . Tunggu info selanjutnya yah ^^

=CHEERLEADER= "One, Two. Three, Four, Down Up , DOwn Up"

One..two…three…four…down up… down up…

One..two…three…four…down up… down up….

I always remember that. Hahaha. That was what I said when I started to lift my friend upward.  

This was my first experience becoming cheerleader team, a memorable and precious experience. Hihihi. It happened when English Department Olympiad was held in last March, an event which was usually made every year in my faculty. So, it looked like a sport competition among angkatan that was fighting over to be first or the winner. There were so many games that each angkatan should follow, such as basket, foot ball, volley, mini games, and also showing the enthusiasm of angkatan by performing anything to the jury, it could be yel – yel, dance, etc. In here, my angkatan chose cheerleading as the show.

Moreover, actually I did not want to participate in cheerleader team. Why? Because I could not  dance. Hahaha.  You could imagine how it looked like if I dance.  Maybe it could be terrible. In other that, cheerleading were not only about dance, but also gymnastic. We had to have power and the body's elasticity. And now, see…. I was not that kind of person. Bur, finally I could be persuaded by my friend Dea. You won Dea! (-̩̩̩-͡ ̗--̩̩̩͡ ) .The others reason was because my close friends, Damay and Meyra,  also followed it. Hahaha. Really not a professional person ^^. And the cheerleader members were, starting from the left to the right: Deo, Me, Diane, Damay, Dian Puspita, Grace, then go down.... Ucup, Meyra, Dian Droba, Nina, and Chrisda. We were 12 people. J

Furthermore, we were given a month as the preparation before the competition. Actually it was a long time IF we did the practice routinely. But, we found the difficulty in getting the same time to do the practices. Sometimes there were just four people, six people, five people, and it was never completed. So sad (*￣m￣).  Because of that, I felt that the time was so quickly chasing after us >.<

In cheers, there were four positions. First was a flyer, a people who would ascend and be on the top. Then, the people who stood in the left and the right flyer were the people that would lift the flyer up. Also, the last was the people who stood in the back of the flyer and guarded her. That’s all the cheers’ positions. And unfortunately I became the people who had to raise the flyer from the left. Whoooooow….how poor I am L . With my thin body, I meant my smooth and small hands….hahaha, I had to lift my friend (Meyra as the flyer) up. Honestly it felt so so so and so heavy. Additionally, although Meyra was not tall, but her body was “bantat”, so it was difficult to raise her upward. I’m so sorry Meyra :p

 In order make me and Nina that stood in front of me (right hand) had the same quantification about when we would lift Meyra upward  , we had to count it by said “ One..two…three…four…down up… down up… One..two…three…four…down up… down up… “. Hahaha. That’s really helpful.  For some meeting, I and  Nina could not lifted Meyra. It was miserable, remembering EDO was closer and closer. But, we keet learning and learning. My other friends, Diane, Damay, Grace, Dian P, Dian D, Ucup, Ainul, Deo, and Chrisda also were never give up to learn. Dea as the coordinator and the expert of cheerleader usually gave advises to us. Sometimes we learnt it in the morning, sometimes in the afternoon, and sometimes in the night. Firstly we just could raise the flyer upward as high as the flyer’s feet with our stomach, then as high as with our chest. Finally!  After about three weeks meeting, we could make a pyramid :D yeyeyeyeye!!! And then, didn’t you know??? Because of this exercises, I had muscles in my arms!!! Arrrgh….. >.< ….. It was more than what I got in my “fitnes” place. I have never got this \(≧o≦)/ ….. But, fortunately, the muscles were gone some weeks after EDO. 

Our Practices 

Some days before EDO’s day, we have just learnt the dance. Eits,,,,what’s I explained before, it was only about how to make the pyramid and we had not learnt dance yet at all. Hahaha..so crazy…it’s so crazy…it’s it’s it’s so crazy…  #singing#. It made us going crazy, we were really confused about that. Everyday I and my friends did the practices again. As the captain of cheerleader team, Grace taught us the dance movals. Dea could not teach us again because she was busy in handling her job in EDO. We learnt and learnt as we possibly could. Furthermore, the day before tomorrow, I meant the time EDO would be held,  our friends Meyra and Ainul got injuries on their feet. It made them can not move freely. Also, the cheerleader’s uniforms had not become yet. Sometimes we also forgot our dance formation. The condition was more serious at that time.（￣□￣；）.  I could not think about what would happend tomorrow. But, we kept believing that tomorrow we would give our best performance. After the last exercise, we came into our own boarding houses or home, and handed it all to God.

In the morning, an hour before the performance, we practiced all what we were going to show. But, it still looked like what we practice last time, like a scramble egg :p  . Whow…. It was the time. Whatever it was, the show must be go on … Then…we Perform!!

Thet thet thet thet thet…..

"We are Niners, Born to be the Winner"

We are Niners, Born to be the Winner"

And….. PERFEEEEEECT! :D

All of us were very happy. We did it well. It did not look like a scramble egg again, but cow eyes egg (Telor mata sapi) whaterverlah what’s the name. Hahaha…. Unbelivable. We could not believe we could do that so well. If I thought about our practice from the first till the end, we had never could to dance from the starting song till the end of the song perfectly. We had to stop it in the middle because we forgot it. Also, we have to stop it in the middle because we had to start it from the starting again. Also, because of the fast beat of the song, our dance were usually left behind by the song. Then, at this time we did it so well. I believed that's all happened because of You…God J . We did the best  and You did the rest.

This is me :P Hahaha

   

Actually, this was so amazing & I wanted it more :P hahaha

Masker Murah Pake Yang Merah - Merah

Liburan panjang banyak memberiku waktu luang. Aku sampai menggalau dibuatnya karena bingung mau ngapain. Dan selama liburan ini aku banyak beresperimen sendiri, mulai dari membuat masakan ala ku, membuat lulur dari bahan - bahan dapur, sampai dengan memakai buah-buahan yang ada di lemari es untuk dijadikan bahan masker. Nah, tomat , buah ataupun sayuran (entahlah) yang berwarna merah orange ini telah menjadi teman yang menempel beberapa hari di wajahku. Setia banget deh pokoknya :D. Gak hanya murah, buah ini juga memberikan banyak manfaat buat kulit kalo kita jadikan bahan masker. Caranya gampang kok 

• Ambil 1 buah tomat, cuci sampai bersih dan potong - potong tipis bentuk slice gitu
• Sebelumnya cuci dulu wajah kita sampai bersih
• Ambil beberapa slice, tempelkan ke wajah kita sambil agak ditekan - tekan, sehingga sari tomatnya keluar, kemudian ratakan sampai seluruh wajah basah terkena air sari tomatnya.
• Tempelkan potongan - potongan sisanya ke wajah kita.Biarkan menempel.
• Diamkan selama kurang lebih 15 menit
• Cuci wajah dengan air dingin

Menurutku sih itu cara paling simpel , praktis dan tetap bermanfaat buat wajah kita . Kadang ngikutin cara - cara yang di google, dicampur inilah itulah ataupun disuruh nglumatin tomatnya dulu, menurutku terlalu ribet. Apalagi ntar kalo udah nempel di wajah, karena tomatnya udah jadi bubur,meler ke mana- mana sampai rambut, telinga, ataupun tempat aku tiduran. Hahaha. Kotor semua kan. Jadi buat yang ga suka ribet - ribet , coba aja kayak yang aku lakukan :P. Boleh dilakukan tiap hari kok, asal kulit kita gak sensitif dan tidak berjerawat. Karena tomat mengandung vitamin C, jadi akan terasa pedih untuk kulit berjerawar.

Tomat ini selain dapat menghaluskan dan dapat mencerahkan wajah lho. Dimakan juga enak. Hahaha. Mudah kan caranya??

Get easy Get beauty. So, let's try it :D

SI CACING & KOTORAN KESAYANGANNYA

Bicara soal buku, aku bukan seorang pengoleksi buku, tapi lebih sering jadi book borrower yang sukanya minjemin buku orang dengan tanda kutip "long book borrower" , peminjam buku yang lama ga balik - balikkin. Hahaha. Dan suatu ketika gak tau kenapa aku pengen beli buku dan aku pergi ke toko buku Gramedia Semarang. Menurut aku itu bukan kayak toko buku, tapi malah kayak perpustakaan. Habis disana sini, ditiap pojokan, para pengunjung duduk dengan santainya di lantai sambil membaca buku. Bisa sampai berjam - jam malah. Dan, penjaga bukunya pun gak melarang. Itu toko buku yang baik namanya. Membantu meningkatkan pengetahuan tanpa harus kita mengeluarkan uang. Hahaha :D. 

Ketika asyik melihat - lihat koleksi buku yang ada di toko tersebut, sekilas aku melihat tumpukan buku bergambarkan cacing unyu - unyu dengan ekspresi yang sangat bahagia sedang berada di seonggok kotoran. Mengherankan (O_o)*!. Diatas tumpukan buku tersebut pun terpampang tulisan " BEST SELLER". Nah lho, udah cacingnya bahagia nongol dari kotoran, aku pun ikut nongol bahagia melihat tulisan itu dengan pemikiran pasti isi bukunya bagus karena bertuliskan best seller tadi itu. Aku telah menemukanmu buku impianku O(•”⌣”•) O. Dengan segera aku mendatangi tempat tersebut. Tapi, sayangnya semua buku - buku itu masih ketutup plastik semua \(≧o≦)/. Alhasil, aku hanya membaca sinopsis dibelakangnya dan akhirnya memutuskan untuk membeli buku tersebut. Dari sinopsisnya sih bagus dan banyak direkomendasikan oleh para selebriti ataupun penulis buku. Aku pun membawa pulang buku tersebut dengan bahagia. Lalalala ╭(^▽^)╯

 Ini nih penampakan bukunya

 Pengarang buku ini adalah seorang biksu bernama Ajahn Brahm yang lahir di London. 

This is the author's face

Dan setelah aku baca, ternyata memang benar guys . THIS BOOK IS VERY RECOMMENDED. Buku ini banyak memberikan pencerahan dan pemikiran- pemikiran baru . Dan  Selain itu, buku ini juga memberikan nasihat dan moral yang baik untuk menjalani hidup yang lebih bahagia. Buku ini berisikan 108 cerita - cerita singkat yang benar - benar bisa membuka pikiran kita. Semanis senyum Ajahn Brahm, cerita - ceritanya pun lucu dan sangat menghibur. Setelah membaca tiap - tiap cerita, aku hampir melongo dibuatnya. EACH STORY IS SO SIMPLE, BUT MEANINGFUL. Aku jadi sadar bahwa terkadang pemikiran kita terlalu sempit dalam menghadapi setiap permasalahan yang ada di depan kita. Dan buku ini memberikan jawabannya. This book is so Amazing! °\(^▿^)/° Yang kubaca tadi adalah buku pertamanya. Dan ada buku kedua dan ketiganya. 

These are the cover 

Gak sabar buat ngelanjutin ke buku ke 2 & 3 nya :D . Tapi nunggu kelebihan duit dulu nih. Hahaha. Cobalah baca buku ini guys :)

Tic Tok

Tic tok tic tok

The hand of clock rotates the time

I wait the sparkler flying into the dark sky

People yell bringing the joyfulness in big smiles

Tic tok tic tok

Voices call me from the back and I saw shadows of mine

Some laugh, some cry

I hold the white shadows, running in hundred of miles

Tic tik tic tok

Now, beside my stand, the white shadows shine

Yeah!!  The three hands of clock are in the high

And I want to keep those shadows every time

NICE Qoutes

• "Eleven Hints for Life"
  1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return.
  But what is more painful is to love someone and never
  find the courage to let that person know how you feel.
  2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who
  means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was
  never meant to be and you just have to let go.
  3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a
  porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away
  feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.
  4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose
  it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been
  missing until it arrives.
  5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an
  hour to like someone, and a day to love someone-but it
  takes a lifetime to forget someone.
  6. Don't go for looks, they can deceive. Don't go for wealth,
  even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you
  smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day
  seem bright.
  7. Dream what you want to dream, go where you want to go,
  be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and
  one chance to do all the things you want to do.
  8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it
  hurts you, it probably hurts the person too.
  9. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck
  a life. A timely word may level stress. But a loving word may
  heal and bless.
  10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best
  of everything they just make the most of everything that comes
  along their way.
  11. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with
  a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone
  around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die,
  you're the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.

GALAU cepatlah berlalu

Mungkin malam itu adalah puncak dari kegalauan yang pernah kurasa. Debaran hati yang lara mengikis segala emosi dan pikiran yang membuat semuanya terasa kacau dan derita, atau yang mungkin biasa disebut galau. Hampir 3 bulan lebih kejadian itu sudah berlalu, tetapi tetap saja terukir di tiap  kuhembuskan  nafas ini. Inginnya sih menghamburkannya dan mengusap halus tiap noda itu seperti noda yang menempel di sebuah kaca. Gampang sih untuk dihapuskan, tapi ketika mencoba menghapusnya, bayangan wajah ini terpantul bagai dua sosok kembar yang saling berpantulan. Mata sayu mengingatkan tiap tetesan yang sudah dikeluarkan, habis terjatuh tak berbalaskan. Apa salah ku??
Malam – malam ini ku ditemani perasaan – perasaan sendu tak beralaskan. Rasa keheningan semakin menjalar, menambah kebahagiaan yang semakin memudar. Lagu menggalau pun sudah bermain memainkan iramanya mengajakku untuk bergalau ria. Dan aku siap untuk menikmatinya sendiri malam itu. Bersiap - siap untuk melepas segala rasa. Sesaat kuberfikir , bodohnya aku. Tak pernah kumerasa sebodoh ini. Aku pun tertawa dalam perih batinku dan kembali termenung mengingat kembali  sesuatu yang menjadi benang yang sudah meruwet di pikiranku. Benang itu kusut dan mungkin memang sudah tak berujung. Entah dimana kedua ujung benang itu. Aku pun enggan untuk memikirkannya. Sedetik pun terasa berjalan terlalu lama, seperti slow motion yang terus menghantuiku.   Tiap hembusan nafas pun terdengar seperti angin yang menggelora bersama dengan jantung yang terus berdetak. Semenit pun terasa lebih lama. Lima belas menit, tiga puluh menit. Sesaat aku tersadar, dan membuyarkan segala lamunanku.Seketika aku merasa bertambah semakin bodoh dengan apa yang baru saja kulakukan. Hahahaha... Buat apa memelihara kegalauan ini??? Seperti orang bodoh saja. Bisikan yang menyemangati diri sendiri pun terasa sangat berarti. Aku segera berdiri dan melanjutkan segala aktivitasku.....

Kosmetik Sehat awal dari Wajah Cantik

Jujur aku adalah cewek yang suka sekali dandan. hahaha. Walaupun peralatan kosmetik'ku ga terlalu lengkap, tapi bisa dikategorikan banyaklah jika dibandingkan ma temen - temen deketku. Dari lipstik, eyeliner, maskara, eyeshadow, sampai dengan blush on ada di dompet kosmetik tempat aku biasa menyimpannya. Tetapi, perlu diketahui sebanyak - banyaknya kosmetik, tapi kalo kita ga peduli ma kesehatan kosmetik itu sendiri, mana bisa cantik? Bisa - bisa jerawat malah nongol menghiasi wajah kita. Ga cantik yang di dapet, malah tambah parah kan wajah >.< .Kosmetik yang sehat pun punya tanggal kadaluarsanya, sama kayak makanan. Jadi jangan sampai kita kasih makanan kadaluarsa ke kulit kita. 

LIPSTIK - Dimulai dari pemercantik bibir. Biasanya batas pemakaian lipstik ataupun lipliner itu 2 taun asal tetap ditutup rapat - rapat setelah pemakaian. Jadi kalo kamu ngerasa masih punya lipstik di tas kamu yang umurnya lebih dari itu, mending buang jauh2 aja. hahaha. Ga mau kan kenapa -napa ma bibir kamu??


MASKARA - Maskara bisa jadi tempat berkumpulnya kuman paling banyak lho karena cair & kalo kita ga nutup sampai rapat tutupnya, udara bisa masuk dan maskara malah jadi tempat perkembangan bakteri deh. Kosmetik yang bisa melentikkan bulu matamu ini bisa bertahan hanya dalam 3 sampai 4 bulan saja. Kalo uda menggumpal, tandannya maskara udah ga layak pakai.


JENIS POWDER - (Eyeshadow, Blush on & Bedak) - Kalo jenis kosmetik ini memiliki jangka pemakaian yang cukup lama, bisa sampai 2 tahun. Jadi gak usah khawatir buat cepet- cepet ngehabisin kosmetikmu ini. Yang paling penting , sering2 dibersihkan aja spon bedak & kuas eyeshadownya.


FOUNDATION - Foundation ini sering dipakai buat para cewek sebagai alas bedak sehingga riasan semakin awet. Kalo aku sih jarang pake, karena kalo pake malah jerawatan.hahaha. So, buat kalian yang emang sering pake foundation kalo misalnya udah lebih dari 1 tahun dan terlihat menggumpal, mending ga usah dipakai ya.


EYE LINER -  Untuk eyeliner ini biasanya ada dua jenis, cair dan pensil. Eyeliner cair hanya bisa dipakai dengan batas pemakaian 1 tahun saja. Sedangkan, eyeliner pensil bisa sampai 2 tahun lamanya.


Setiap kosmetik punya jangka kadaluarsa yang berbeda - beda terutama tergantung dari bahannya. Buat kamu yang emang sering pake make up, mungkin bisa pake kosmetik yang batas waktunya cepat, tapi kalo yang jarang pake mending pilih yang lama kadaluarsanya, jadi kan hemat biaya juga :). Tambahan lagi, kalo misalnya kalian mau beli kosmetik, DON'T EVER nyoba sample kosmetiknya ya. Itu kan udah dipakai banyak orang & kita ga tahu kebersihannya. hahaha. Misal mau nyoba, coba aja di telapak tangan kita ^^
So, guys... yuk tampil cantik dengan pakai kosmetik yang sehat :)
