Bluntly Honest Opinion

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...

MY REASON The infamous Dalkon Shield (Cr: wired.com ) The copper (non-hormonal) IUD has always had some sort of bad reputations in a world of birth controls. It's no surprise; it does have some pretty shady history. In 1971 to 1974, there were 110 cases of septic spontaneous abortions in women and even seven cases of death who had the Dalkon Shield style of copper IUD inserted. Although the design has definitely improved in the current days, the side effects of it sound so risky that many women choose to turn to other forms of birth control. (Read more here .) I was one of those women. I chose to turn to artificial birth controls when I became sexually active because of my slightly irregular cycle which would make natural family planning very risky. I approached a GP about birth control choices and the only options he offered were the Pills, the Patch, and the Shot. I didn't see it as odd at first; I mean, who was I to question a doctor? So I asked for the Pills and th...

I am new to the whole lipstick world. Lipstick had never been a concern of mine until recently when I joined a local makeup group on Facebook where I bought this lipstick from another member that I jumped head first into the world of lipstick. And goddamn loving it. So yes, my review right now would be inexperienced and biased and it may sound something like what a sixteen-year-old would say after their first drink, but goddamn, I'm loving it. The colour I will be reviewing is Tulle which is described on the website as "not the douchey kind but a dusty mauve burgundy." I chose to buy this colour because of my yellow undertone and lighter 'nude' colours make my lips disappear. Honestly. It looks like I don't have lips. (I'll post photos later.) I always go for the darker colour to play it safe and damn, didn't I hit the jackpot. LET'S GET PHYSICAL The packaging is so cute and so elegant. It looks like the packaging of a high end b...
