Why I'm Starting Over Again

This was a dead blog. I stopped posting years ago because I was ready to move on to a bigger project, something more complex, something more challenging. Something I wasn't ready to handle yet. Ultimately.

So now I am back to the beginning. Something simple. I won't be posting images on Instagram about this blog nor I'll be posting updates on Twitter. It's a space for me where I can write down everything that I want. It will be raw and unedited but it will be me.

Stay tuned.

REVIEW: O Cosmedics Rebalancing Cream

Image
This has only been May and my stress level is so high that my skin is terribly suffering. My skin is starting to thin that I can see my veins on my cheeks. My pores are huge, especially after the hot summer of Australia when everyday was over 30 degrees. I have always had acne for as long as I can remember but now they are accompanied by those tiny bumps that you can't see but you can feel. Well, that's what people said. I can definitely see them and neurotic me thought it was too much. One day in April I went to this beauty salon to get my usual waxing (once you wax you never go back, to shaving I mean). The beauty therapist, her name is Deirdre, took one look at my skin and commented at how I've been breaking out. But like in a nice way, not in the obnoxious "Wow, you have a lot of acne, don't you?" way. She gave me a skin consultation and thought I should come back for an acne peel. Being the self-conscious person I am, I came back the next week. After

SKINCARE SATURDAY: Sebamed Clear Face Mattifying Cream

So I have just recently moved back to Indonesia. While that is a story for another day, let me just tell you about Indonesian climate. Actually, let me Google it. "Split by the equator, I ndonesia  has an almost entirely tropical  climate , with the coastal plains averaging 28°C, the inland and mountain areas averaging 26°C, and the higher mountain regions, 23°C. The area's relative humidity is quite high, and ranges between 70 and 90 percent." - weatheronline.co.uk You know what that means? That means it's humid as f*ck. As in hair frizzy, sweating mess, body odour thriving. And... OILY SKIN. So my skin has always been normal-combination for as long as I can remember. And I have accepted that you know. I found a great skincare routine that actually cleared up my face of its plaguing acne and its brethren acne marks. My pores were not visible. MY PORES WERE NOT VISIBLE AT ALL. So imagine my surprise when I stepped off the plane and a couple of hours later I found
