Pencil liners? Maybe..

I am a huge fan of bold black winged eye liner!
Since I have a very small Asian eyes and no eyelid on my eye line.., I always need to make fake illusion using eyeliner.
I always use liquid eyeliner and almost never use any pencils (my Mom persuaded me to have her Lyra's pencil liner so much but still I hate it cuz it turned out look like kajal and smudged on my eye line esp down part..)
So, I never purchased any pencil eyeliner anymore recently, retractable or conventional shape!
I do have another version of black liners like gel eyeliners or pencil eyeliners but very seldom to use them, I always prefer the liquid ones (I tried many brands btw).

But last week I had a sleepover at a friend's room and found out that she has this unique pencil eyeliner from Very Me Double Trouble by Oriflame

It has two colors, black (matte and very dark) and white (a bit glittery and not chalky like I wanted it to be).
As usual, I have no interest on using it since it's pencil eyeliner but somehow I tried it.
And wham, it was really nice! Sorry if I already promoted two products of Very Me brand so far but trust me I'm none of their virtual PR ^^
This pencil eyeliner is very easy to apply and the pigment comes out really strong but not smudgy!
I made just the usual cat eyes with the black eyeliner pencil and this is how it looks..

Please excuse my ugly face since I took the pic in the early morning right after I woke up and play with my friend's pencil eyeliner.
The black line stay quite good and once again doesn't smear, so as a former pencil eyeliners hater I can say I like this product..!
Purchase it next time? Maybe. Because it has the white side which I won't really use much though.

Lip stain, lip tint..

I never tried using any lip stains or lip tints before. But lately I've been thinking of getting one.
So I was in a dilemma of buying some brands of good reviewed-tints like Tony Moly, Etude, or Innisfree (recommended Korean line) or Benetint, The Body Shop, or another non Korean brands.
I'm a newbie and puzzled, so I read as many reviews as I can and to the comparison.

So, I end up ordered Very Me lip stain by Oriflame (it's Oriflame's second line with younger look) in Red (swatch number 2).
I found some good reviews about this product and it's not pricey!
But it's still on ordering process and it's coming next Monday so I haven't try it yet (I'll review it later).
I hope it turn out good, pigmented, and last long!

So..
My boss asked me to pick up a copy of a book for research material at Gramedia today when I decide to stop by at The Body Shop store inside the mall.
I once read that they also have Lip and Cheek Stain, so I tried out the tester..
The Body Shop Lip and Cheek Stain I tried is the one with strong red tone, the texture is so watery and not sticky at all. It has no scent also.

I apply some dots on my lips and pat it all over lightly with my pinkie finger but my lip seems just exactly same and so bare.. (sorry, I just forgot to take the pic of my lips)
I put more and look at the mirror but still, it's not even pigmented, just a very sheer pinkish tone.
I have no idea why is it so bad and not so colored, but maybe I need to remember that I used my L'occitane shea butter lip balm first under my Innisfree Eco lipstick before I hit the mall.
Maybe it's because I put something on my lips first then the lip stain's pigment doesn't appear well on me :(
That was just my simple research and self assumption, because when I left the store I found the red stain stays quite good on my pinkie finger.., here you go

It's a bit pricey though, 129k. I think I'll be thinking twice to buy it since it's not pigmented and some reviews said so!
My friend Ismi told me to try Tony Moly Cherry Tint but I ordered my Very Me lip stain and just gonna wait for it!
Please look forward my review to that soon! ^^

Hello to you!

Hey, every one.

It's August 10th and I finally wrote my first run here into 'Fortunata'.

Yeah, I had blog once and been writing for quite long but it didn't last long anyway. So I started out a new one here, 'Fortunata'.
That 'Fortunata' is my middle name which I'm so proud of (my daddy gave me that).
I have no such plan about what's this blog gonna be like, what it's all about, no specific thing.
I just like everything spontaneous, off the cut-thingy.

So, I will put everything I like to write and share here.
About many things I love, arts, musics, journalism and media, social issue, beauty, and even sweet things about life.
Nothing really personal here, if I decided to post anything 'personal' here then it's not a secret since I let all of you read it.

Oh yeah, if you're wondering why is the pic I had on the headline was NYC..
I have something in mind about that, beside it's my fave city I'd like to visit one day after Seoul, there's gonna be this someone coming from The Big Apple visiting Indonesia next month.
So that's why I'm excited and in such New York mood lately.
I had no idea what pic to put so I just used that one, nice huh?
