Hello Everyone..

First of all I want to say Merry Christmas to all who celebrate it. I'm sorry because this month is not very productive month for me. I just celebrate Christmas at my parents home, with my parents, hubby, twin, sister, brother and brother in law. Actually I'm too lazy to write anything right now. ^^
Today I will share about my new lip product. It is Maybelline Color Sensational Lipstick #525 Peachy Scene. Peachy scene is pinky-coral with slight hint of peach with a frosty finish.

PRODUCT DETAIL

OVERALL

Although the name its Peachy Scene, the color more to soft pink than peach. You can see the color of the lipstick from the bottom of the lipstick tube. I think it suites well for everyday natural look.
When I applied the lipstick, it also have really sweet (candy/cake) scent. Personally, I don't mind it really, but for some people who doesn't like the cosmetic with certain scent it maybe bothering them. The scent however fades quickly once applied onto your lips.
It has creamy texture, glide smoothly on my lips and it has frosty finish. However, the frosty finish is not really that overpowering, and it doesn't bother me. But if you have dry lips or fine lines, it can show it obviously. So make sure you use lipbalm before using the lipstick.
The lipstick last for several hours, maybe around 3 hours without eating or drinking.

PLUS :
(+) Many shades
(+) Creamy
(+) Color is true to the tube
(+) Moisturizing
(+) Sweet scent
(+) Affordable

MINUS :
(-) It can show dry lips obviously
(-) Last around 3 hours

Twin 3rd Birthday Party

Hello Everyone..

Sorry for this very2 late new post, I'm too busy preparing my twin birthday party on 8 December 2014. So December is my favorite month, because my twin birthday and christmas is coming soon. Personally I love birthday party, when I was child my parents also celebrate my birthday with big party. The 1st & 2nd twin birthday party is not success, so sad to remembered that. On 1st birthday party they fall asleep until the party is over, and on 2nd birthday party they got angry and fussy because the party just start at they sleep hour. -__-

Okay lets stop the chit chat and move to detailed about twin 3rd birthday party. So this year I decided not to celebrate the birthday with big party, just celebrate at home with us (hubby & me). I also make the dessert table on my own, except for the birthday cakes and cupcakes, I hope next birthday I can make it myself. I make the birthday and twin name flag banner, food and drink labels, cupcake topper, paper rosette for the backdrop and paper bag just for decoration.




I don't have special theme just using twin favorite color which is blue and red. This is my very first dessert table so forgive me if it just too simple. I prepared it just around a month before, I make it every time I have some spare time. 

The table is too small for the dessert table, I should use the longer and taller table. But it's urgent you know. I don't have a time to find another table before the birthday. I will prepare better dessert table next year. ^^


This is the birthday cake, the base is layer cake with strawberry jam covered with fondant. It have blue and red color, the twin favorite color. It decorated with 2 boys with plane and car behind them. If you look carefully at the cake you will notice the cake is tilt to the side like Pisa Tower. ^__^
But I can't complain because I don't make the cake and I buy it quite expensive. I have to quite satisfied with the result as long the cake not wrecked. I hope next year I can make the birthday cake on my own, I still learning right now.  


The birthday and twin name flag banner made with Microsoft Powerpoint. You also can make it with Adobe Photoshop or Corel. I'm just using the easy and simple tool. I made the birthday flag banner with triangle shape and the twin name with round shape. After I print it, just attached it with some white ribbon.






The cupcake topper, milk label, chocolate label, food and drink label I made online at Picmonkey. It is free online photo editing. Editing your photos is easy with Picmonkey. Add filters, frames, text and effects with this free online editing tool.


The paper rosette made from hard paper with blue and red color. For the large paper rosette I use 4 pieces of paper fold horisontally, the medium use 3 pieces of paper fold vertically and the smallest use 3 pieces of half paper fold vertically. This the most tiring job for me because I have to fold the paper then attach the paper with glue.




 This is the birthday boy. Happy 3rd Birthday My Twin, Raphael Christian Prastyo & Gabriel Christian Prastyo. May your birthday be filled with everything happy and everything you've ever dreamed! Mommy & Daddy love both of you to the moon & back. Lots of loves, hugs and kisses.
