Hello Beauties,
As the weather is not very friendly, around 39 Celsius in the afternoon.It's not good for the skin. If you don't treat your skin well it can be damaged. Here's some what I do to make me feel better through the day. There is going to be part 2 about beauty bits during hotter months.
After washing my face and use moisturiser, don't forget to use sunscreen. I don't suggest to put same sunblock for face and body if you wear make up. The formulation is different and it can be quite oily for the face. Use face and body sunblock every day before go out. Not only it helps to prevent damage of the sun but also make sure the skin not getting dull. If you have sensitive skin, sunblock for kid can be your choice, like what I use. Don't forget the lips, I use Sebamed Lip Defense. Any lip balm will do, just don't forget to moisturise your lips.
For refresher I use rose water, you can use facial spray like Evian Mineral Water Spray or just regular water spray. It's good to use it during the day or as a setting spray. I like to switch up fragrance based on season, in hotter days I like fresher fragrance like The Body Shop Dreams Unlimited Sun Fresh.
I know my hair is getting oily and ugly if I go out in the sun. Washing my hair everyday is not an option. So, I always use baby powder as dry shampoo to absorb the oil. Dry shampoo will do the same job, but I prefer baby powder. As my hair will getting crazy through out the day, I always bring bobby pins and hair tie.

Hello Beauties,
I see my morning skin care routine as the way of getting more focused for the day & save me from the weather outside. I do the routine regularly everyday. It may seems crazy, but even though I've class at 7 a.m I still do it. I find that if I skip my skin care routine, it will affect the condition of my skin through the day. I've combination-oily-sensitive skin ( Yeah,that's kind of complicated)
First I use The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Facial Wash I just rub message it for a good one minuet after rinse it in the shower. After I take a bath I use Mustika Ratu Lime toner with cotton pad. This step is important to make sure that my skin is clean before other skin care regime. I leave it until dry before I put my morning moisturiser, The Body Shop Tea Tree Skin Clearing Lotion. Be patient when it comes to skin care, let the your skin absorb product before applying another one. Since my moisturiser don't have SPF, I use Erhalogy Sunscreen Gel which is my new favourite thing to apply. I've a blog post about the sunscreen.
What's your favourite morning routine?

Hello Beauties,
Sorry for not posting for the past two weeks, I was very busy with final project. But now I finally got time to take care of this blog again :)
I usually hate face sunscreen because of the sticky feeling. I rarely wear sunscreen in my face and use foundation that have spf instead. I kind want sunscreen because I'll go to Lombok and live there for a while. Of course, I don't want to burn my face.I just sat in waiting room at Erha Clinic and start swatch things. I'm instantly in love for the texture. It is not gel like as it in the description, but more watery like usual moisturiser. I use it after moisturiser before foundation. I'm quite surprise that it's look great under make up. It feels like adding another layer of moisturiser. The downside of this product is that there's no description about spf.
It comes with 2 variants, for normal-dry and normal-oily. It's great to find sunscreen that can suit your skin type. Since most of sunscreen in the market don't do that. The price is Rp 66,000. You can buy erha products in Erha Clinic or erha apothecary near you.
What's your favourite sunscreen?
