 Menyadari kalau perlu moisturizer yang bener-bener melembapkan dan bisa nge-seal semua produk dan kelembapan di kulit dengan maksimal, aku nggak bisa pakai mosturizer yang ringan.I need heavy-thick texture moisturizer, tapi dengan kandungan yang tepat buat memperbaiki skin barrier. Setelah liat page Sociolla.com beberapa hari, pilhanku jatuh pada COSRX Hyaluronic Acid Intensive Cream ini. Moisturizer ini bener-bener nggak neko-neko dan gimmick-ish gitu, straight-forward untuk melembapkan kulit karena ada kandungan Hyaluronid sebagai bahan utamanya. Inilah key ingredients yang ada: - Glycerin : salah satu kandungan yang memang baik untuk melembapkan kulitmu yang berguna untuk menjaga lipid kulit di antara sel-sel kulit kita dalam keadaan sehat, melindungi dari iritasi, membantu memulihkan/menguatkan skin barrier. - Sodium Hyaluronate : Merupakan turunan Hyaluronic Acid yang memiliki 'partikel' lebih kecil jadi bisa masuk ke kulit lebih mudah. - Arginine : Semi-essential dari as...

"She was Lola in slacks. She was Dolly at school. She was Dolores on the dotted line. But in my arms, she was always Lolita." I watched this movie several years ago, and it still on my mind. Lolita itself is an adaption movie from a book with the same title. Lolita is a novel by Vladimir Nabokov, first published in 1955, about a middle-aged literature professor Humbert Humbert who is obsessed with the 12-year-old Dolores Haze, with whom he becomes sexually involved after he becomes her stepfather. "Lolita" is his private nickname for Dolores. This is a classic work, I'm pretty sure many of you already read it. I honestly don't really like this movie, because this is a male gaze (the act of depicting women and the world, in the visual art and in literature, from a masculine, heterosexual perspective that presents and represents women as a sexual object for the pleasure of the male viewer). No wonder, it was an over-sex...

Have you ever took a moment to see what yourself in the internet? In other words, googled your own name to see what you've actually done. Malisa Amalia Search I could find my social medias, from Facebook, Instagram, even LinkedIn. When I look into social media, example: Instagram, feel like I met such a cheerful, beautiful, talented young lady. Girl in the pictures looks perfectly fine, in her cute outfit and poses. Her writings can be positive, sometimes melancholic. I clearly understand about internet persona, 'someone'--maybe it just us, or the other 'person' that we created in internet. We tend to be the best version of ourselves, and portrayed our life as perfect as possible. In other words, we can be anyone and anything in the internet. I met someone from the internet, he said once, "You don't took like the one that I saw on Instagram" these words honestly slapped me really hard. And I asked myself, is sh...

Since my skin is in trouble even if I'm using my current skincare routine, so I guess it because of food I ate. I can't eat too much sugar, oil, and proteins, but last month I just ate everything I bought. For the sake of my skin, I MUST to eat vegetables soup everyday. But my friend just came to my place and we just wanted hangout, we decided to go to Lowcal kitchen. In Malang City, a place with all healthy choices such a rare thing. In this city has many options for hanging out, either with friends or family--but for healthy yet yummy, Lowcal is a pioneer. Lowcal Kitchen is located in Jl. Terusan Dieng no. 39. They served vegetarian menus, from for the sweet tooth as smoothies, pumpkin soup and something salty as teriyaki tempeh, chicken caesar salad, and any other menus. They garnished the food perfectly beautiful! Anyway, if you're confused about food you want to eat, just ask the waitress they'll explain their menus and give you recommendations ...

Actually, how many stripes you can wear? As many as you like! I do really enjoy wearing it and I'd like to add more stripes in my wardrobe. And yeah, I found that I have unhealthy obsession with stripes. Well actually when I want to buy more stripes, I told to myself that I have enough stripes!! Seriously, I have two main reasons why I love stripes--that much! First, Classic piece! You can have one stripes basic shirt and wear it three or five years later without anyone asked, "when did you get it?" because yeah, we wear it every-single-year! Second, Create Illusion! Cliché, if you want to look slimmer, go wear stripes in vertical lines, but if you want to look fuller go choose stripes with horizontal lines! BUT, this 'rule' isn't that important, just wear whatever you're comfortable with!

First time I came to Yogyakarta when I was in Junior High School, after that my family and I religiously came to Yogyakarta every year. But something happened, we didn't come to 'Gudeg heaven' city for years. Last year was my first time came to Yogyakarta again, and luckily this year I could enjoy Yogyakarta again. First time I went there, I instantly fell in love with this place. I enjoyed walking around Malioboro, observed crowd there about people interactions, bought fascinating stuff sold there. After years I didn't come, I absolutely more and more fall in love this city. I found myself enjoyed night walk to Angkringan, or heard people talking with Javanese language, and great street musician, and many simple things. This year, I enjoyed moments with minimum pictures (well I captured small amount of pictures--If we compare to this post ). I only took pictures at several places, not every places I visit in Yogyakarta. I too...

Detha ( @plasticdeath ) She describes her personal style as edgy, dark, androgyny, and unconventional. She loves wearing something that show her curves, she barely wear something loose, "just not me." she said. Her most favorite colours all the time: black and white. Period. Well, sometimes she wore something pastels or red, but again "just not me." Top: Next Jeans: Pull n Bear Shoes: Doc Martens Belt: Pull n Bear Sunglasses: Rayban Hoop Earrings: Bershka Me, Malisa ( @malisaaabc ) I describe my personal style as vintage or retro inspired, feminine, yet quirky. You'll find me with stripes from head to toe with different colours, or maybe super vintage or retro vibe. The contrary of Detha, I really enjoy to mix colours and patterns, I don't mind experimenting to my outfit looks, BUT I choose wearing skirt rather than pants.
