PIXY BB Cream Bright Fix & Compact Powder Pure Finish Review

I bet some of you already know that I disliked BB Cream, and I always use foundation rather than bb/cc cream as my make up base. That's because bb cream used to break my skin out. T__T

My face would become oily and acnes would start appearing the morning after I washed off my make up. I tried more than 3 different brands of BB cream that many people liked, but none of it suited me, so I gave up. (//_//)~~

Buttt thenn I discovered that PIXY has launched these new products; PIXY BB Cream Bright Fix and PIXY Compact Powder Pure Finish which promise to stay bright and oil free up to 12 hours! It's a made in Indonesia product with Japan license, so I think its' formula will suit Indonesian girls' skin perfectly.

Product Description:

Can you see that my acne scars and pimples (blame PMS!!) are covered??

The moment after I applied the BB Cream on my face, I was surprised that

(+) it didn't give me any sticky/oily feeling ,

(+) blended in easily & smoothly!! (even when applying only with fingers, so no worry for make up amateurs!), 

(+) it's light on my face yet can cover my dark spots (acne scars),

(+) even smelled fragrant!! 

The product promises that it will stay bright on our face up to 12 hours, so I decided to prove it !

This photo was taken in the morning, right after I finished my make up

Setelah aku pakai PIXY BB Cream Bright Fix, aku PIXY Compact Powder Pure Finish , biar makin tahan lama dan mencegah supaya muka tidak berminyak (oil-free)! :)

After 12 hours

 My make up was still soo good (without any touch up) even after I went out to have lunch, an outdoor outfit photoshoot, and also visited my sister to play with my nephew & niece in the evening.

When I uploaded a selfie on my instagram wearing Pixy's BB Cream, one of my followers didn't believe that I actually wore this product and said that I might only wear the product once, for advertisement purpose. But that's totally WRONG. I've used these champs from PIXY for numerous times! Here are my other selfies with PIXY BB Cream Bright Fix and PIXY Compact Powder Pure Finish

The most important thing about a make up product for me is whether it breaks my skin out, or not.

I've tried using them for more than 5 times and it didn't break me up. There's not any sign of pimple / acnes appearing, so I am very satisfied with this product.

They have 3 different shades; OCHRE, BEIGE, and CREAM.

I wear the OCHRE shade :)

So... from the pics above, you can conclude that these PIXY BB Cream Bright Fix and PIXY Compact Powder Pure Finish are VERY RECOMMENDED, CAN PROVE THEIR PROMISE, and SUITABLE for daily wear (for working women and student like me!!)

I'll constantly wearing them for my daily make up base rather than foundation which is too heavy.

BB Cream ini juga punya SPF30 & PA+++, Vit C, dan natural whitening extract yang malah bisa bikin kulit kita tambah bagusss lagi ;)

The price is also very affordable, IDR 30.000! Dari pada bb cream merk korea yg mahal - mahal, PIXY is definitely included in my "Recommended" make up product list! PIXY ini adalah produksi Indonesia dengan lisensi dari Mandom Corporation Japan . Jadi udah pasti formulanya cocok banget buat kulit cewek Indonesia. Senengg bgt dehh ada make up produksi Indonesia yang bagusss & harganya terjangkau! :). Paaasss bgtt sama kebutuhan ku sbg student dengan banyak aktivitas (tapi tetep mau tampil oke) dan uang jajan (budget) yg terbatas!

If you also use these products, Don't forget to share with me too your comments after using PIXY BB Cream Bright Fix and PIXY Compact Powder Pure Finish yaa :)

Little Child

I felt like a child again when I wore this outfit. The denim overall is just too cute ! I decided to wear it with my 3 year old stripes patched sweater , cute necklace, and boots (so that I wouldn't look shorter in these maxi overall) .

The photoshoot itself was also so fun. I did this photoshoot with Agatha (@clairshoots), Sarah & Agatha E who kindly helped me with hair-do (Thanks for the pretty braid, agatha!!), lighting, and sudden ideas! ;). I was confused where I should take photos for this outfit, and they recommended this grafitti walls in Jalingkut, Tegal. So yeah, we did it! 

Taking photos around this area wasn't easy at all. Lots of scary punks passed by, so we'd hurriedly run back to our car to hide, and when they're gone we'd continue our shoot. lol #fashbloggerproblem

Lace and Romper

Last night I just got back from my school's retreat trip in Parakan, Temanggung. It was my 3rd time coming to the same place (the perks of going to the same school since elementary) but it's not boring at all. I'm so happy to be able to eat my mom's homemade food again (I had a craaazzyy dinner last night and super big lunch of my fav meals this afternoon to fulfill my cravings. thanks mom:*) and also to be able to poop at a closet with bidet.. lol.

Twin Outfit with Mom

DO YOU KNOW? #Me&Mom'sFACT:
#1: "We share clothes, shoes (sameee size!!), accessories, bags, make up, and food!"

Thanks to Catherine Soephadi's Design! Today I and my mom wore a matching outfit. We wore monarchy top and eden top from Catherine Soephadi. The cutting is really perfect and fit our body perfectly (just like what we asked/customized). The fabric, embroidery, are all sooo beautiful! :)

#2 FACT: My face doesn't resemble my mom. I inherit my dad's big, chubby face and also small eyes x')

#3: I don't take many photos with my mom, which makes my mom so annoyed and and always asks me "Why don't u want to take photos with me?? Are u scared that I'm prettier?" .

#4: I have many quarrels with my mom. We fight over the simplest thing like... my outfit. She's also my style consultant most of the times. She hates it very much if I wear a too simple / 'lancai' outfit. But nevertheless, we LOVE each other very much xD

Tomorrow I'll go to Parakan, Temanggung with my classmates to have a retreat trip for 3 days. So c yaa! ;)

Miss Brightside

Sooo... here are the result of the second outfit of my photoshoot with Agatha (ig: @clairshoots). It was gloomy that noon. I was so scared that it would rain so I hurried up to change my make up / clothes for the next outfit. lol. But strangely, it didn't rain even until the photoshoot had ended.

I really like the result of this photoshoot. So bright, colorful, and about the first 3 photos, I tried to look like the mini dress-up paper dolls that I used to collect in elementary school! ;D (I know I'm so much chubbier than those mini figures >;'0)

I got the flowercrown from ZARA for only IDR 99.000. It was more than 250.000 when I first saw it , but I waited until it's gotten cheaper... I felt so lucky, hahaha x). My necklace is a locket that I costumized by myself on Odetta Style

Before this photoshoot was done, there were some funny things that happened. First, I originally wanted to shoot this outfit the day before (Saturday) with my friends Kevin. I already did my make up, picked my friends up (kevin, steven, jordan. the other two are my 'supporters'?. xP), and we went to the place where we wanted to, but It rained the moment I stepped out from the car, and since it was outdoor, there's no way to take photos of this outfit with bad lighting. So at the end we just went out to have a massive sea food late - lunch. lol.
Second, a week before last Sunday, I and Agatha had agreed to have a photoshoot on that day. She said we'd try to shoot the outfits at her house. So on Sunday, I drove to her place at 1pm. I wanted to do it earlier, but she had another photoshoot in the morning. While I was on the way, she texted me "I'm in Cxxx". "OK." I replied. I thought she had a photoshoot there and would return to her house right after, without realizing that she has 2 houses. One is the one I was heading to (where I usually pick her up), and one is her new house in Cxxx.
When I arrived in her house, she called me and we both realized that we just had a mis-communication and I went to the wrong house. I Panicked!! Because the road was quite small and dead-end. And I COULDN'T  do a u-turn yet because I'm a newbie driver, I was ALONE and I was just too scared to try driving 'backward'.
I had lots of weird thoughts. "OMG what should I do...". 'Should I call my friend..'. 'should I get out from the car and try looking for help (parking man/ security?)'.
So at the end I just BRACED myself UP and did the u-turn by myself (like parking with the butt of the car going in first, then I turned right to come out from that kinda-small road). ROFL.
I'm really bad at parking and going backward T_T

I love the fabric of this dress because it's not too thick yet not too thin, which is perfect for the tropical slash -currently rainy- weather! It's also not a body hugging kind of dress, which makes us comfy when wearing the dress and can hide our flabby belly, yet gives a cute touch from the flares at the bottom ;). ShelovesOnlineshop is definitely my favorite shop for cute dresses, girly tops, and skirts!

"Should I bite the flower?? It kinda matches my flower crown & dress! kkkk!"
