Pink and Undecided: liebster award

Liebster Award 4, 5 & 6 + 2nd Sunshine Award

Haiiiii...!!!

This is horribly late but i've been busy with other stuffs so only now i get to do this... Sooo... I've been tagged for our 4th, 5th and 6th Liebster Award and Second Sunshine Award a while ago! It's quite crazy but very flattering that we have enough readers kind enough to nominate us hehe, that's why i decided that i should do the tag (again) even though it's very late (and it makes a good filler post and fast to do so it's quite fun!).

Like usual, i will not be tagging other blogs (because i've run out of people to tag as we've done this tag numerous times already) and also skip the random facts (because then i'd have to write sooo many of them, i mean... we got 4 nominations *___*) but i will answer every questions.

First up is the Liebster Awards :

From Tiffani of Little Piece of Heaven :

1. Your daily make up?

I don't wear make up daily, but when i do that'd be BB Cream, concealer, powder, eyeliner, blush on, lip balm+lipstick!

2. Your current favorite make up style :

Gyaru make up with circle lens, thick eyeliner, va va voom eye lashes, pinky blush and glossy lips (i am loving neon colored lips too!)

3. Your favorite make up brands :

Etude House and Maybelline, but i basically like almost every brand with affordable price and cute packaging :p.

4. What your ultimate bucket list?

Traveling the world, at least visit every continents once!

5. Your HG product(s) of all time:

Maybelline Volum' Express Turbo Boost Mascara and Revlon Top Speed Top Coat

6. What part of your face do you usually want to emphasize? Lip or eyes? why?

Eyes, coz i think my eyes are really nice LOL. I don't mind my lips too but i think they're too thick sometimes.

Don't you think my eyes' pretty? *wink wink*

7. What your weakness when it comes to make up technique?

I am no makeup expert, probably all of my technique's pretty crappy *LOL*. I don't really know how to blend my eye shadow and i definitely have no idea how to contour.

8. BB cream, CC cream, or foundie? why?

BB Cream coz they are so convenient, easy to use, multi purposes, kind to my skin, and has a natural looking finish. I also find them less clogging for my pores than foundies.

9. What are your favorite fashion style?

I'm a lolita at heart, so everything that's kawaii, pink, lacey and frilly. I'm quite a chameleon though so i like to change up my style all the time, but my ultimate fave would be fairy kei (mild one, i don't want to give people heart attacks by going full blown in Indonesia).

How i really want to dress everyday if i live in Japan and not in stiff Indonesia

10. Your dream job?

Errrr, professional blogger that gets paid to travel and review stuffs *LOL*.

11. What country do you want to visit the most? why?

Japan!!! Coz i am obsessed with everything Japanese! Actually it was France, but i've been there last year so now i have a new goal!

Fingers crossed, i'm coming in 2015!!!

Next up's questions from Cut Auzola from Bowbowdorable :

1. do you like to use contact lens better when doing makeup look or just stick with your natural eyes? why?

Contact lenses, the enlarging ones. One, because i am blind as a bat without my -6.00 contacts and two, because i love the dolly effect enlarging contacts instantly gives. My make up style preference is dolly and gyaru, and contact lenses totally works to enhance the effect i am aiming for.

2. what hair color do you want most?

Half pink half violet! Because they're my most fave colors ever and because i really want a pastel head!

My dream hair color!

3. matte or shimmer eyeshadow? why?

Shimmer. Coz i love my eyes looking bling2 hehe. I prefer nude, shimmery colors than any matte ones for everyday use.

4. favorite disney princess?

Errr... Does Elsa counts? She's technically a queen, but she was a princess first!

I was a princess for 90% of the movie, you know!

5. what makes you want to be a beauty blogger?

Coz i love makeups (and other beauty related products like bath and body cares, etc) and i love writing, so why not write about makeup too?

6. your favorite person of earth?

Hm... My husband? I have several, and people might scold me for not saying my son, but my fave would be my husband *LOL*.

7. Smokey look or natural look? why?

Natural. I don't even know how to do a decent smokey look *LOL*. I prefer to play with eyeliners than eyeshadows.

8. Favorite makeup guru?

I must've answered this a million times. Don't have one, i don't watch a lot of You Tube tutorials, but i like Michelle Phan and watched almost all of her videos back to back once. From Head to Toe's Jen's awesome too, but i like Michelle first and foremost.

I think Michelle Phan is quite awesome, and her boyfrie is yum yum!

9. favorite face wash?

I constantly change my face wash and i don't really have a favorite, most of them work equally well for me. I really can't think of any >.<! I'm using Biore's (the Japanese one, not local made one) and loving it right now!

10. your biggest beauty problem?

I hate my moles, does it count? If not then my panda eyes that can be fixed with concealers but then they'd be all cakey after concealer and powder *sigh*

11. What makeup brand you love most?

Maybelline has always been my fave coz they're so cheap and nice. I love Etude House too because of their cute packaging.

Liebster Award 2 & 3

beauty questions

Hi everybodehhh!!!

We've been tagged for Liebster award (again!), two times in a row! Wow! This time the tag came from Bunga and Nindya, thank you both for tagging this blog :).

We have done the requirements for this award the first time we were tagged and even then i had hard time tagging 10 other blogs, so this time i'm just gonna answer all of the questions asked by them, that's fair enough right?

Because most of the question's beauty related, i'm not gonna ask #Undecided to answer them haha she will kill me (not a very girly girl, that one)!). And i'm going to translate the question to English (Bunga's because they were in Indonesian) and answer them in English too (because we have quite a lot of international readers and because it'll save me some time, i know i need to learn to write in Indonesian better and there will come a day when i HAVE to write in Indonesian, but i would be the first to admit that i suck (weird, since it's my native language and all, #Undecided totally relate though!) when it comes to write in proper (and in a matter that's presentable and entertaining for the readers) Indonesian-so i am SO not ready. Not now.

First up, questions from Bunga :

1. Jelaskan kenapa kamu menjadi beauty blogger?!

(Explain why did you become a beauty blogger?)

Well, if you pay attention to this blog you'd know that i am not really a beauty blogger per-se, i'm more of a lifestyle, beauty, fashion blogger, all rolled into one but i am very interested in beauty, that's why i do write a lot about beauty. So the answer would be, because i love love love make up and i love to share my newest findings/likes/dislikes/experiences!

2. Siapa yang menginspirasi kamu? (ga harus orang yang menginspirasi dalam dunia makeup)

Who inspires you? (doesn't have to be related to make up world)

I've answered this question on the first Liebster award, i've linked the post up there and you can click it to read my answer there :).

3. Lebih suka makeup ala-ala korea atau bule?

Do you prefer Korean style make up or Western style?

Neither, i prefer Japanese (gyaru) :). But i love Korean gradient lips and often use that style.

Gyaru style. I am not a fan of gyaru models though so i am not familiar with their names, i think this is Tsubasa Masuwaka?

4. Kalo disuruh pilih lipstik atau eyeliner lebih pilih mana? kenapa?

(If you have to choose between lipstick and eyeliner, which one would you

choose and why?)

Can i choose blush on instead? LOL. Okay lah, eyeliner! Because it really opens up my eyes, makes it bigger and livelier while i can get away without lipstick since my lips are already naturally pink.

5. Apa arti keluarga buat kamu?

(What does family mean for you?)

Can't live with them, can't live without them? LOL. I love my family to death but sometimes they can suffocate me (i'm talking about my 'rents and siblings). As for my little family, they are my everything. But family is not only those who are related by blood, family are the people who love, accept and will be there for you no matter what. My best friends are my family too, they are the family THAT I CHOSE (coz you can't choose the family where you're born, right?).

6. Lebih suka berlibur ke pantai apa pegunungan?

(Do you prefer beaches or mountains?)

Both, because i love traveling to any type of destination (wanderlust and all). But i like mountains better because i prefer cold than heat!

And because i can dress like that in cold places. That furry coat with bear ears' on top of my wish list now!

7. Apa skincare yang rutin kamu pakai?

(What's the skincare that you routinely use?)

I use a dermatologist' prescriptions' creams but i also alternate using all kinds of skin cares so my skin won't be dependant on the dermatologist' creams. I do not have any specific brand for the alternative skin care though, i just use all of the stuffs i got from Beauty Boxes, currently using Clarins'.

8. Apa eyeshadow favorite kamu? Sebelum pakai eyeshadow suka pakai eyeshadow base terlebih dahulu atau engga?

(What's your fave eyeshadow? Do you use eyeshadow base before or not?)

What you mean like the brand? Don't have any favorite brand for eyeshadow, really. I wear whatever, i don't mind locals, Asian, Western, anything will do hahaha. I prefer shimmery ones over the matte ones for sure. And yes, now i almost always use eyeshadow primer first.

9. Barang apa yang lagi pengen banget kamu beli?

(What item that you really want to buy at the moment?)

Everything in Victoria Secret's new store in GM. Except the lingerie. I want all of the perfume, bath and body cares, make ups, EVERYTHING! I asked hunny if i can buy at least one ~~package~~ per month, and when he said yes, i asked for three, then when he still said yes i was like "What about five?", that's when he got annoyed at me and told me to buy the store instead.

This is not the store in GM (look at the mark on the right, i got the picture from Google) but it looks really similar :)

10. Alat makeup apa saja yang wajib kamu bawa di tas kamu?

(What make up items are a must on your bag?)

Oil blotter, lip balm, lip color, eyeliner. Little mirror and comb are not make up items, but they are also a must! I actually have an entry about what's inside my make up pouch that i bring everywhere.

11. Apa saja brand makeup favorite kamu?

(What are your favorite brands of make up?)

I love all brands really (same answer to no 8), whenever i see a brand that i haven't had before i'd be very tempted to buy something. But in general i love Etude House because of their packaging :p.

That's the questions from Bunga :). Now moving on to Nindya's :

1. What are your favorite beauty blogs/Youtube channel?

Hmmm, i follow a lot of blogs but i don't really have a fave BEAUTY blog. My fave blogs are Xia Xue's, Qiu Qiu's, Cheesie's and Aud's, and none of them are specifically beauty blogs. I don't watch a lot of YouTube either...

2. What are your favourite beauty products?

Lippies (lip balms, lipsticks, lip glosses), blush ons and candy colored eye shadows!

3. Tell me your skin care routine (head to toe) and what products that you use?

What???? That'd be like, a few entries by itself *LOL*. In general : I use shampoo (of course), conditioner and hair vitamins/oil/serum. Brands : Dove, Sunsilk, Pantene, whatever's on sale haha. Facial skin : refer to question by Bunga (number 7). Body skin : body lotions, what brands? If you follow this blog you'd know i use different brands every time i finish one, that's why i have so many reviews on body cares :D.

4. Mention 3 of your best lipsticks and tell me why?

I am a very new fan of lipstick (i used to wear them only as a tint, i wear glosses more before), less than a year actually! So i haven't really tried a lot of lipsticks! For now my answer would be Revlon's Just Bitten Kissable (because they are so cute. Wrong reason? LOL), Revlon's lip butters (because they are so easy to apply and has surprisingly good color payoff) and Etude House's (like this one because of the packaging *again* LOLOLOL. Sorry lah, i am all about packaging!)

5. Do you listen to music/humming random songs while wearing make up? If yes, what is your favorite track? If no, why?

Mostly yes (if it's just my routine, 5 minutes one no-coz i'll be singing and dancing rather than doing my make up and it won't be 5 minutes anymore zzz), but i don't hum : i belt out songs! LOL. No fave tracks, i listen to whatever i love at the moment. There was a time when i put on Jong Kook Oppa's Han Namja (One Man) on repeat for weeks, then there was the Amy Bedgley/Leah McFall The Voice songs, then Frozen's soundtracks...

6. What is the craziest look you've ever made with your makeup stuffs?

I don't do fantasy make ups, but i did this once : Drag Queen. It's not that crazy (compared to other bloggers' fantasy make ups) and it's not even good *LOL* but that's gotta be the craziest for me.

7. What brand you always can't wait for the up-coming products and why?

Etude House! Why?

Ewww to the boyband (sorry Shinee fans!!!) but yes yes yess to the bottles!

Seriously. Need i say more???

8. If you could have any famous people hair and face to be your own, who would it be?

Can i have their body instead? I love my face and hair too much!!! LOL. I'd trade my body with any skinny b***'s! LOLOLOL. But i HAVE to choose then it's my version of the prettiest girl in the world, Ayumi Hamasaki.

9. If you had to go and can only bring one beauty item on your purse, what would it be?

Tough one... Oil blotter? Is that a beauty item? If not, maybe concealer for my panda eyes.

10. If you had a chance to create a makeup product with your own line, what would it be?

A make up palette, of course!!! I am obsessed!

Andddd, finished! Thank you again for Bunga and Nindya for tagging :), and thank you everyone for reading! I'm tagging everybody who wants to do this tag to answer the same questions! Leave me a link of your answers if you decided to do the tag!

Toodles!

A pic taken by hunny's new cam, i look very chubby (like in real life hahahah) but i like it!

The Liebster Award

blog award

Hellooo everyone!

About a week ago we were tagged by Elin for our second blog award, The Liebster Award. Thank you Elin, we're very honored :)! Elin actually tagged #Undecided, but when i told her to do this she squawked and grumbles so we're doing this together hehe.

Hey People, #Undecided here... Hahaha... I didn't squawk nor did I grumble, #Pink (well I did), but to tag 10 other bloggers, really?! This Award needs a new rule! LOL. Anyway, obvi we're honored to be tagged, thanks Elin :)

Here's the rules first :

The Liebster Award is given to up and coming bloggers who have less than 200 followers. So, what is a Liebster? The meaning: Liebster is German and means sweetest, kindest, nicest, dearest, beloved, lovely, kind, pleasant, valued, cute, endearing, and welcome. Isn't that sweet? Yes It is! Blogging is about building a community and it's a great way to connect with other bloggers and help spread the word about newer bloggers/blogs.

Here are the rules for receiving this award:

♡ Link back to the person who nominated you.

♡ Answer the 10 Liebster questions given to you by the nominee before you.

♡ Pick 10 bloggers to be nominated for the award with under 200 followers.

♡ Come up with 10 questions for your nominees to answer.

♡ Go to their blogs and notify your nominees!

Honestly, the tagging 10 other blogs' killing us because #Undecided only reads like, three blogs (with staggering amount of followers, i must add) and i... i mostly follow older blogs (than ours), and yes, with lotsa followers as well hahaha. I'll do some blog walking and hunt for 10 to tag, can we tag someone who's already tagged though, i wonder?

You do that, #Pink... Good luck :)

We tag (dunno if you already done this, if you have i hope you don't mind us tagging you again hehe) :

1. Neni Diyanti

2. Lina

3. Reez Ki

4. Queen Nobelia

5. Riana

6. Beatrix

7. Dini

8. Devi

9. Ellen Tan

10. Nurina

Anyway, let's answer Elin's questions first!

1. Describe who you are

#Pink : i'm a 29 (will turn 30 in a month, lemme keep on saying 29 for now while i still can!!!) happily married (to my university sweetheart) woman with a lovely 6-years-old son on the outside, a little crazy gyaru girl in the inside (i dream of living in the wonderland and dress to match!).

#Undecided: I'm going to use my twitter bio: "dog person, coffee-holic, stripy-lover, daydreamer". And I LOVE my hubby (although obvi he annoys me most of the times, but I wouldn't have him any other way).

2. What is your favorite part of your face?

#Pink : That's a hard question because i love my face *HAHAHAHA*, flaws and all (can't say the same about my body, but everybody's got their own insecurities), i gotta say... my eyes? Your eyes are the window of your soul afterall..

#Undecided: my eyebrows... Okay that's a lie hahaha... People who know me IRL must know that my eyebrows are in the shape of two eggplants *sigh* and I ~~am too scared~~ can't be bothered to get them fixed. So, my fave part of my face, I'm gonna have to say my lips.

3. Who is your inspired people for your life?

#Pink : Another hard one... I don't necessarily have a certain role model or whaveter, i admire different people on different aspects. For now i guess i should say Giuliana Rancic totally inspired me to always be happy and have a positive outlook in life, no matter how low life can take you, and you CAN be a winner!

#Undecided: Indra Herlambang. He inspires me to continue writing (even wrote me an email and asked me to write a book), and to know that it's okay to be smart and geeky and witty and funny at the same time and still make it big in life.

4. If you could travel anywhere in the world and money was no object, Where would you go? Why?

#Pink : i would travel the world, of course! Every nooks and crannies in every part of the world! I have a wandering feet and i love traveling more than anything, i plan to at least visit all of the world's continents before i die!

#Undecided: I would most def go to New York City. There's nowhere else I'd rather go. Wait, I would also go to Canada to see Sem K on his wedding day. I would HATE the journey to get there (almost 24 hours KILL ME NOW), but yeah, NYC and Canada, baby!!

5. What is your morning-beauty-routine?

#Pink : sad to say, i don't have one *LOLOLOL*, i just wash my face with facial wash and that's it *horrible example, don't follow!*. Unless i'm going out then i'll do a simple look, usually BB cream+concealer+powder+blusher+lip balm and i'm good to go!

#Undecided: wash face (while showering) + put ACNES UV Tint and I'm good to go (to the office - who cares, right?!).

6. Tell me 3 products you can't live without!

#Pink : oil blotter film, under eye concealer and blush on!

#Undecided: my stupid Blackberry, pillow/bolster (they're a package so they count as one!), contact lenses.

7. How old were you before you stopped believing in Santa Claus?

#Pink : Never believed in them in the first place haha

#Undecided: never believed in them either hahaha

8. What is your addiction at the moment?

#Pink : addicted to Running Man and especially Kim Jong Kook Oppa, does that counts? I am also addicted to blogging hahaha

#Undecided: Minion Rush

9. Who is your favourite Beauty Guru?

#Pink : i don't really watch You Tube. I only watched Michelle Phan and Jen from head to toe once in a while, so maybe... Michelle Phan?

#Undecided: #Pink!!

10. If you could be someone else, who will you be and why?

#Pink : cliche as it sounds, i'd never rather be someone else but myself. I am a pretty lucky girl and i really love my life!
#Undecided: whomever Leonardo DiCaprio is currently dating.

And here are the questions for the nominees (no 1-5 is from #Pink, 6-10 from #Undecided) :

1. Who's your current celebrity crush and why?

2. Do you have a soulmate, who's she/he?

3. How important is your best friend for you?

4. What is your ultimate fantasy? Come on, don't be shy, share it with us! Everybody got one, and they are always silly so we won't judge!

5. What is your take on those Korean boybands with full make up on and their dry grinding on each other? (In case you don't notice, we're scared of them hahaha)

You know, #Pink took all the best question, damn it! LOL. Here are mine:
6. Are you a cat or a dog person? Why do you pick one over the other?
7. Why did you start blogging?
8. If cheating is legal, would you do it?
9. "Mother in law": what's your take on this subject?
10. Honestly cannot think of anything else, so just write what you think about our blog, okay? (vain much, #Undecided?! LOL)

So there you go, everybody! Congrats for the ones #Pink tagged, you're it!! Don't forget to link your post back to us, we can't wait to read your answers ;)

Cheers,
