It's been a while since my previous post.I've been busy dealing with many things,and when I had time to do blogging,I worked on redesigning my blog layout.I'm not a graphic designer though I joined some graphic designs and web classes back then when I was on college.My under graduate degree wasn't from graphic design school,so i'm not really good on it.Even on this new layout,i'm just doing some mix and match of tons of freebies out there:D..I think something is still missing here,but..whatever,i'll do some retouch later.But yes,the theme is baby pink now.I soo love anything in baby pink color,always!Now even more:D..

I also apologize for people who have written me e-mails,and I just checked and replied it recently. I love blogging,I don't think I want to quit from blogging.Blogging is fun,you meet lots of people arround the world,making new friends,sharing your thoughts,so who wants to quit from all those lovely things above?At least not me:)..

Ok,so what I got during these times?I have some cosmetics and non cosmetic haul which I'll review it later,and this new pink digital camera of mine:) LOVE IT!!It's Canon Ixus 105.

My previous camera was from Canon Ixus too which was Canon Ixus 400.I like Canon,especially the Ixus series.I love their design,the result,and mostly is...their excellent service!I don't want to promote Canon here,so here what I can say about their service,buy it then you'll know what I meant.I broke my previous Canon Ixus 400 when I used my tripod,and apparently the spare part price was as the same price as you buy a new camera.Technology is such annoying,isn't it?They always come with a newer and cheaper price.So when I bought this new Canon Ixus 105,my requirements were only:the lowest price model among canon ixus series in pink casing!That's all.I'm not a good photographer at all,so why would I need to buy the coolest camera on this planet?It'll be like this old saying in Korea that I've ever read on a Manhwa:"Pearl is useless for a pig",which is literally mean"it's useless to wear pearl on pig".The pig won't even know how precious the pearl is.Bottom line is,just buy what you need/suits your need:D..

Here is also what I bought:The Body Shop Tea Tree Oil.I got acne attack again,and I run outta my burt's bees,so my option for tea tree oil were only TBS teatree oil or Oriflame teatree oil.I was going to buy Oriflame Teatree oil since it's organic.But when I read the ingredients,I canceled it. It contains petrolatum/mineral oil,which I have no idea why they put it in since I heard petrolatum/mineral oil based cosmetics can cause break out on some people.So I chose this TBS teatree oil.

Anyway I must confess that before being a beauty blogger,I thought teatree oil was extracted from tea tree(for beverages).Untill one day I searched on the net and found out that it came from different kind of plants! I don't understand,why don't they name it with different name instead of using the same"tea"word?As far as I know,we don't plant this teatree here in Indonesia,though the plant is a native plant from our neighbouring country,Australia.I'm justifying my self here for not knowing much about the shape of this tree.We plant tea,but not this teatree.Beside,all products that claim has teatree oil in it,they all came in that teatree leaf picture in graphic which looks like tea leaf in my eyes(oh please,some leaves just look similar in graphic!). So I randomly asked some people arround me this question:"Do you know teatree oil?Do you think it's from tea tree that we drink and made it into oil?".Majority said:"yes,isn't it?".When I said"no,it isn't",they were like"really?i thought it's from tea tree since its name is teatree!".So if any of you is unclear about how the shape of this tree or info about the tree,just click on this link.

Here are some pics of it:

So,how about this TBS teatree oil that I bought?(I prefer to combine the tea+tree word to differ it from tea tree that we use for beverages).

Ingredients are:

Just like my previous burt's bees herbal blemish stick,it dries acnes quickly.The texture isn't oily,more watery imo.It doesn't feel stink on your skin,unlike burt's bees. The smell isn't as strong as burt's bees,still the same"telon oil"smell.I like this product!

2 things that I frown at:

1.They put ingredients list on the 3rd layer,so I can't peel it to see what's in it on the store when I purchase it.Gimme a break,the SA won't let me peel it ofcourse!There's a sample of it,so I may peel it,but how about when they run out of it,or forget to provide the sample?. I think it'll be better if they put it on outer layer instead.

2.The cap system is quite confusing.I spent 15 minutes to open the cap as the suggestion said and it didn't work at all!Then I tried,and tried,tried,finally it worked.I prefer regular cap,better and faster to open it.

Overall,4.5 points for this product.

Hi all!:) It has been quite long time I didn't do blogging. I was busy,and got sick for couple of days,and now..thanks to my ISP..it gets me blogging even more rare! I can't believe it,it has been a week I get this internet connection trouble,they cut my connection every 10 seconds,so I keep on clicking"connect"button all the time! Pretty nice,huh?!..

Yea..better move to another subject which is..this Burt’s Bees Doctor Burt’s Herbal Blemish Stick™!:)

I bought this product along with my previous Burt’s Bees Radiance night moisturizer. I wanted to try a natural acne remedies.Something that doesn’t contain parabens since it can get through my blood by acne wound.So I hoped that this burt’s bees would work on my acne attack.

This came in a small glass bottle with roll on system on the top,just like deodorant. It contains:

I’ve read reviews about it on MUA,and some ppl there complained about the smells.They said it had a strong smell. So I was ready for its smell.I imagined the smell would be similar,at least as strong as Oriflame’s acne remedies. Why Oriflame?Among all acne remedies I’ve ever tried,Oriflame’s acne remedies had the worst smells ever!! It smelt like a pine smells,something which reminds me of toilet/bathroom cleanser. I got that oriflame looong time ago when I was still on my Junior High School. I dunno their acne remedies range products recently,perhaps they’ve improved the formula.Dunno,never tried it again since that time.

So,when I used this burt’s bees for the first time,my reaction to its smells was…I loved it!

It has a strong smells,but still a nice smells. Something that reminded me of what we call here in Indonesia”Minyak Telon”(telon oil). Telon Oil is generally used for babies,as a body warmer oil so they will feel warm,keeping away from cold.It’s a nice,warm smells,makes you feel warm and calm when you smell it(at least mostly Indonesian ppl).Telon Oil is made of  Cajuputi oil,coconut oil,and other oils that I hardly remember.There are lots of brands of telon oil that are available in here,but I give you this telon oil pic in pink because..it's sooo girlyyyy,hehehe :D... This burt’s bees has a slight similarity smells as that Telon Oil(except the alcohol smell part),so yes..I love the smells..

Did it cure my acnes and pimples? Surprisingly,yes! Just rub it onto our infected area parts,then you’ll find it reduced in the morning. Continue using it couple of days(at least 2-3 days),your acnes will completely shrink and dry. If you want a product that can zip your zit in just a night,this product isn’t for you. I’m not in a hurry person for zipping my zit,so I’m fine with this product since it’s effective and natural too. If there’s one thing that I don’t like about this product is that its packaging is too simple for me,not really attractive(I’m a cute princessy packaging lover,remember?^^)
