[Etude House] Baking Powder - Pore Cleansing Foam Review

Before this review, I was using only my skincare from Natasha. I used Natasha skincare product since I was in high school. Around my college year, my skin got the worst breakouts ever. Even I used the Natasha skincare. It didn’t help at all. So I switch to another. But it didn’t last long. I was frustrated. Then I started to search skincare that can help my sensitive skin. In Indonesia, you don’t have much choice in skincare. 

There’re some skincare that is widely known for sensitive skin but usually if it’s not pricey, or else not distributed around here, or hard to get. So I went to search in Korean skincare category. In Indonesia, there’s a lot of online shop that offers Korean skincare and with affordable price. This time I will review a cleanser. It’s popular in Korean woman and good for sensitive skin (I read all the review about this product)

Baking Powder - Pore Cleansing Foam

I got this from online shopping in Riebutik for Rp 88.350 without the shipping charges. It's on sale btw. :3

When I saw it, it's big (of course it's 170 ml) compare to my Natasha cleanser. Hahahaha...

First, wet your face. Then pour the cleanser on your palm. You don't have to use a lot. Just a tiny spread on your palm and gently spread it across the face in circular motion until you feel the foam. It's kinda fluffy. After that just rinse.

Gently spread the cleanser

I already use it a couple of day and so far I am satisfied. It doesn't make my face itchy. It help with redness on my face too (I think) hehehe..

Score: 5/5

+ it doesn't make my face itchy
+ make my face more whiter
- my sister doesn't like the smell (but to me it's okay)

I don't have a negative thing about this product (so far) hahahaha XD

author of our life

I just read @LoveQuotesx

I am the author of my life. Unfortunately, i'm writing in pen and i can't erase my mistakes.

And I realize that it's true. We are the author of our life! We are the one that choose not our parents, siblings and friends even strangers!! No. It's simply our choice to make. We learn how to life, how to make friends and how to love and being loved.

are you creative?

Creative is come in different ways. I have seen many articles and end in conclusion. Can you say that you are creative? How you can be creative and make your work a new different level?

1. We evolution. When we work on something, we want to make it better so we change like evolution You can create a new brilliant ideas from evolution. Ask yourself “how could i improve this?
2. Discover the new shine in old things. Maybe your mom things that it’s so not young, try looking them in different ways so it can become amazingly beautiful. Ask yourself “how could i do that differently?
3. I love that idea and that one too. What should i pick? But you know, you can combine one idea into another and make a new idea from that. Ask yourself “how can i combine that idea with another?
4. We can make a new different method but the same goals. We want to make something more effective so we take another method. Ask yourself then "”how can i make this even better?
5. If you mess up, what you gonna do? so ask yourself “if i can start this over again, how would we do this differently?

There are some attitude that creative people have. Check this out, maybe it’s you!

1. Curiosity
2. Seeing problems differently, as if it’s interesting and acceptable to us
3. Facing your challenge
4. Make the world’s problem to motivate us being constructive
5. Optimism
6. Hold off on critiquing the idea
7. Seeing problems and mistakes as leading us to improve
8. Stick with the idea
9. The flexibility of our imagination

So, are you creative? Maybe you are not born as genius as einstein but if you have guts and will, probably you can make it!

You can have your own creativity depends on your personality..

L O V E

Love is a strange feeling that can be one of the most amazing in all the world. Sometimes the emotions associated with love are blissful, and there are times when they can really hurt. In the end, love is something most of us, if not all of us, will encounter. While there are many different ways to define love and there are many different ways to love someone (or even yourself), here is a general guide to loving.

Steps

1. Say it. When you say the words "I Love You", they should carry with them the desire to show someone that you love them, not what you simply want to feel. When you say it, make sure you really mean it and are willing to do anything for that special person.
2. Empathize. Put yourself in someone else's shoes. Rather than impose your own expectations or attempt to control them, to understand how they feel, where they come from, and who they are. Realize how they could also love you back just as well.
3. Love unconditionally. If you cannot love another person without attaching stipulations, then it is not love at all, but deep-seated opportunism (one who makes the most of an advantage, often unmindful of others). If your interest is not in the other person as such, but rather in how that person can enhance your experience of life, then it is not unconditional. If you have no intention of improving that person’s life, or allowing that person to be themselves and accepting them as they are, and not who you want them to be, then you are not striving to love them unconditionally.
4. Expect nothing in return. That doesn't mean you should allow someone to mistreat or undervalue you. It means that giving love does not guarantee receiving love. Try loving just for the sake of love. Realize that someone may have a different way of showing his or her love for you; do not expect to be loved back in exactly the same way.
5. Realize it can be lost. If you realize that you can lose the one you love, then you have a greater appreciation of what you have. Think how lucky you are to have someone to love. Don't make an idol of the person you love. This will place them under undue pressure and will likely result in you losing them.
6. Never stop loving. Even if you have been hurt before you should not stop giving love.

Tips

• It does not make you a bad person to desire someone else's love, even if they do not love you. However, to truly love someone, you must let them be free. It is selfish to blame them for your feelings.
• There are many types of love, for example: a mother-son love is different from a best friend's love, which is different from a romantic love. Don't be ashamed to tell anyone that you love your friends as much as you love anyone else in your life.
• You have to find someone that will suit you, someone you feel comfortable with - not just someone to make love to.
• As a word, love can be found worldwide and is often used to describe compassion and/or emotional attachment. Accepting those you love for who they are is part of love. You also need to learn to accept yourself before you can accept another. If you cannot love yourself, how are you to love another?
• Love genuinely. Do not compare your feelings now to what your feelings were when you were with another mate. At times, we can experience rejection.
• Realize that love is a feeling that I can describe and attempt to assist, but ultimately, you are the one who must take action in order to discover love.
• Do things that make the other person feel good and happy, but do not smother them with gifts and attention.
• People in love are sensitive to each other's needs, and desire to meet them even when they do not feel like doing it.
• Men and women may be equal in value but different by nature. People who truly are in love give their mates "space" to develop their potential and find their fulfillment in life.
• Love does not brag. People who are truly in love refrain from rehearsing their good traits just to show off. Bragging in a relationship often is really defensiveness.
• People who are truly in love do not insist that their way is best and demand that their mates give in to them.
• People who are truly in love are considerate of each other's feelings and courteous in their actions toward one another. Sadly, sarcasm is a way of life for some couples. They ridicule each other, belittle each other and trade jibes with a fury. They may say it is all in fun, but it leaves wounds that will someday become festering sores.
• People who are truly in love look out for their mate's best interests as much as their own. Those in love should be concerned not only about their own individual interests, but about the interests of the other as well.
• People who are truly in love control their anger when the other displeases them. We are all human, and all humans feel anger periodically, but we only express our anger in destructive ways when we are counting on someone else to meet our needs.
• People who truly love each other do not take pleasure in their mate's disappointments or failures.
• People who truly love each other treat their mates with absolute trust. Some husbands and wives torment themselves with groundless suspicions. If you look for trouble you will find it every time.
• People who truly love look forward to their relationship growing more meaningful and precious. They have hope. Which is an attitude that happily anticipates the good. It isn't being blind and denying that there are problems, but it does look beyond the problems. People who truly love each other do not allow their problems to rob them of their happiness.
• Remember there is no failure in love, because once you tell somebody whom you love, that you love him/her, then you have already succeeded in love.

Warnings

• You must love yourself before you can love another.
• There is always the risk of getting hurt, but that's part of letting yourself fully love and trust someone. Being hurt could be long-lasting and could hurt more than anything in the world.
• Realize what you have while you have it, and care for the person you trust.
• If something comes to an end, try to let go rather than holding on; it's for the best.
• The idea of love is fueled by childhood fantasies. The love shown in movies, as obtainable as it may be, is rare to say the least.
• You just may find your soulmate sooner than you intended.
• If you feel any doubt of the love your partner has for you, make sure that your suspicions are grounded in reality. If you hurt your partner as a result of undeserved mistrust, he/she may end up doubting both your love for them and theirs for you.
• Don't ask for love. You should receive love because your partner wants to give you love, not because you want it from your partner.
• Do not force love. It will come in good time—perhaps not with the person you initially want, but love definitely will come if you are willing to share it with someone.

our journey

Whenever we shed a tear, we move up towards a new stage.
After we pass through a river of tears, there will be yet another river.
It keeps repeating like that.
But the reason we become stronger is the fact that it repeats.

Our journey..

Sometimes I feel like I am tired of this life. I just want to stop and take a break. Because I feel sick doing everything everyday. And I cannot abandon them. Life is suck, many say that. Even it’s suck, it’s something that we must do, we must fight it. We cannot lose. When we fall, we must rise again. When we lose, we must try it again. When we lost our way, we must find it again in this our road of life.

We try, try, and try. Don’t ever give up! It doesn’t matter how many times you fall, but it’s about how we can rise again every time we fall. If we don’t accept our lost but we try and try again, surely the victory is ours.
