magical of lemon juice

     Playing around the beach might so much fun, I really love that time when sun bathing during the day. Love the wind, love the wave so calming. Some people might want to get darker skin tone, bronze effect from sun bathing. After sun bathing our skin became healthier, but somehow our skin can also over burned by the sun. Hmmm probably like me ;(  , I played around the beach actually too much play but forgetting to reapply my sunblock. Well the result is my skin became darker, too dark shade for me. All I want to do just to make my face brighter. Browse and browse I found that lemon as a skin lightening and also to relieve sun burn. It's a natural and inexpensive way, ok let's have a try.

here is the step I've tried:

1. Wash lemon appropriately.

2. Cut lemon into slices,  and squeeze their juice into a cotton ball. Remember always use fresh cut lemon, consider degradation of the vitamin C in lemon. 

3. Apply it arround your face, please mind it stinging effect especially if you have wound or cut.

4. Leave it until 30 minutes and rinse your face.

     As the result from this remedies, my skin became lighten  and softer . Aww worth the price gals, I just realized what inside the lemon, the things behind its magical effect. It isn't something new anyway, citric acid.  Lemon has a high level of citric acid, so if you think it's too stingy then try the lower such as: strawberry, grapes etc. You can also mix the lemon juice with other ingredients like: honey or water, to minimize its stinging effect.

       Citric acid also known as Alpha Hydroxy Acid class, we can easily find it in our skin care ingredients. AHA works as an exfoliator by helps to remove dead skin cells and as the result lighten and softer skin as I mention before. To get the best result we can't only do this once time, do it routinely. 

     Anyway, don't forget to apply sun screen because the outer layer may not be mature enough to withstand environmental effects. But please gals, mind your skin and  don't overdo this. In some cases skin become redness and irritation. This is usually because the number of skin cells dying/sloughing off are more than the number that are forming. I'm highly satisfied with this homemade skin care remedies, So gals what's your secret homemade skin care remedies? 

Baked Potato Scallop

     Dah lama juga euy ga post disini, behubung jadwal memadat dan ini itu di luar sana lamban skali sepertinya untuk memposting sesuatu. kangen rasanya menuangkan ide, unek2 share cerita biar legaan dikit gtu.Ok, here we go  mari kita selesaikan posting ini hadaaah. Jadi gini, pas kemaren malem bingung mau dinner pake apa hmmm, berhubung warung makan masih pada merayakan libur lebaraan. Dan bosan juga menu delivery, jadi kami memutuskan untuk memasak yang tersedia di kulkas . Mari kita lihat di kulkas ada stok apa, hmmm keju, kentang, sosis. Pikir2 mo bikin apa ya putar otak dengan bahan segitu tapi bisa kenyaang haha. Akhirnya kita putusin buat bikin potato scallop, scallop and potato? apa hubunganya.. Penganan ini disusun gitu menjadi layer per layer sehingga menyerupai kerang or scallop yang disusun.

:: Baked Potato Scallop::

Bahan: 

1. 800 gr Kentang , saya memamkai kentang yang ukurannya besar kira - kira 6 buah saja. iris sekitar 1 cm

2. 250 gr Keju cheddar , karna di kulkas cuma ada 200 gram jadi segini juga udah lumayan ngejunya ;P

3. 500 ml Susu / dairy cream

4. 5 buah Sosis bisa di tambah daging cincang ataupun yang lain.

5. 2 SDM Butter / margarine

6. 2 SDM Tepung terigu

7. 1/2 Siung bawang bombay ukuran sedang rajang halus

8. Garam, Merica dan seledri secukupnya.

Cara Membuat:

1. Siapakan bahan  terlebih dahulu.

2. Rebus kentang yang telah di potong selama kurang lebih 10 menit, beberapa resep menskip langkah ini dan langsung ke bake. tapi buat aku tekstur yang sudah di rebus setengah matang lebih yahuud di hasil akhirnya.

4. Sambil menunggu kentang, mari kita siapkan creamnya. Tumis bawang bombay dan margarin, setelah harum tambahkan tepung dan susu. aduk pelan - pelan hingga merata. Tambahakn merica dan garam secukupnya hingga mendidih dan sedikit mengental.

3. Siapkan loyang untuk memanggang, saya menggunakan loyang segi empat ukuran 9". Olesi dengan margarin atau pengoles loyang.

4. Setelah kentang setengah matang, angkat dari rebusan dan tiriskan. Susun kentang satu per satu pada loyang yang telah di siapkan sebelumnya. Susun hingga membentuk lapisan pertama terbentuk.

5. Setelah lapisan pertama terbentuk taburkan keju parut, sosis dan seledri yang telah di siapkan. Tuangkan krim sebagai lapisan selanjutnya.

6. Lapisan pertama selesai lanjutkan dengan lapisa selanjutnya ulangi langkah ini  hingga kentang habis.

7. Setelah lapisan selesai taburkan keju sebagai topping untuk topping ini saya suka dengan keju yang banyak ;P

8. Masukkan loyang ke oven yang tela dipanaskan terlebih dahulu dengan panas 150 C.Tunggu hingga matang, waktu pemanggangan 45 menit bila mengingkan hasil yang lebih berkuah waktu pemanggangan bisa di kurangi.

     Hmmmm setelah matang hasilnya  perfecto dinner, meskipun dengan bahan seadanya tapi rasa yang di hasilkan yummiiih. Lembut cheese saucenya benar - benar membelai lidah. Dalam sekejap bisa hilang dari pandangan ;P

     Berhubung masih bulan syawal blom telat kan yah untuk bermaaf - maafan, BlueberryChizkeik mengucapkan: 

" Minal Aidin Wal Faidzin, Mohon Maaf Lahir dan Bathin"

Choosing the right one

     Hello readers, I just realized that the new school year begin very soon. Congrats for your graduation, new beginning, new level also new friends. Still confusing where to go? Don't know where to start? I know how you feeling guys. For you who have graduated from high school choosing where to go, it is a big decision. Yes I mean it. Choosing the right way just like choose the perfect mate. The right mate last for a life.

     Some of you may be choose to start on career or learn in higher level. Both of them are great depend on the way you do. Well, after graduated from high school I've already met my perfect one ehm. And preferred to get married and then start a new career. The problem about education came lately after having a daughter LOL.Choosing the right university became so difficult for me. It was really hard for me to make any decision. I'm a Mother also an employee, How can I manage it?  I share to you some of my tips for choosing the right campus :

1.Your love 

  There is a lot of faculty out there, a lot of campus choose what you really love. See inside out your truely potential. By knowing your deepest potential you won't be regret of what you choose. 

2. See the market

   After knowing what you love, don't forget about the market.Check the current  job trend and will need more people to involve in 5 years later.

3.Time and Economic

   We can't forget about these two things, time and economic. How long will we study, How much we spend for the education fee, transport fee etc.

4.Environment

   Great campus, great environment make us want to learn more and more.

    Well after a lot of thinking, Finally I made the decision. Last year I enroll to Private College named Inti College Indonesia. This campus is near my house such a great deal for me. It didn't only complete my criterias It has so much plus value. Here are the reasons:

1. Saving time & saving money 

    as a mom those factors are really important, beside I think about my budget I also have to think about my daughter budget in the next few years, rite? In Inti learning become so fast, as I remember we have one semester only in 4 months that is mean we have three semesters in a year. 

2.Great environment

    I chosen for the national programme, but it does really feel  like in the International program. Some of the lecturers are the same with International programme. Yeah I pay the national for an international LOL. After that, I'm a novice in english as you can see from my writings, so much things that are grammatically wrong.I  need a place to improve my english, that's another thing that Inti give to me. I almost forget about something, Now Inti has became a part of Laureate International University Network, It is one step ahead to International learning.

3.Time Flexibility

    As woman who already have double job I need to think well before take my another job, which is study. I can't stop from my job, I have to be a mom , employee, and also a student. I need a campus that flexible in time. Lucky me, there is ehm what should I call. May be afternoon class, in Inti there is no executive class which in other campus specially designed for workers. In afternoon class we attend the class just like the other students. The differences only in time matter, our test, lectures, assignments and etc are exactly the same with other students in the morning class. 

4. Online learning facility

    When I was in high school I always protest : "Oh, God, I can't do it!!" when my teacher ask me to write and write again. It is one thing I love in Inti that now there is LMS(Learning Management System) that allows us to download all the lecture materials yaay. 

5.Feels like home

     Can you imagine a class with a lot of students? That will be noisy. I even can't learn in that such a class. Lucky me, in Inti the students number only about 20 in a class. So I won't get any disturbance. Beside that we are really close each others share what we love, spending time with them make me feels in home.

     Last but not least I do really enjoy learning in Inti College Indonesia. That is my story, now it's time for you to make a movement for you, for your better future. C'mon it's time to start to make the decision, By the way this is the second day of my midterm test in this short semester.

Wish me so much luck guys!

XOXO

Wardah Lightening Two Way Cake

     I’ve been searching for cosmetics that suit me well, what I mean suitable here are, the price, the ingredients, the texture and also easy to use. As a moslem, the ingredients are one of thing I have to pay attention to.  So it’s  hard for me to find great product comes in halal certified. Well, I tend to ask firstly to the brand about their ingredients before I use it. Sometimes I get really confused to decide whether I can use it or not. I feel kinda save when I know the products list as vegetarian products. But need to remember that vegan isn’t the same thing with halal. Well I’m not goin to discuss about halal anyway. 

     Few weeks ago,  I got a package of sample products from Wardah cosmetic  from last gathering with FD Hijabers which are contain of Lightening Two Way Cake in Golden Beige and also Sunscreen Gel SPF 30.  I can’t give a review about the sunscreen gel because I gave it to my sister. I feel super excited to try the powder, It is in the line of Wardah whitening series. It contains licorrice extract and also SPF, which are believed can help the skin lightened but I don’t put too much expectation on the lightening effect. What really make me curious is about the coverage and shade. First thing that I think when viewing it,  it’s really light and compact. I tried it to my face, the texture is so so light and sheer.  If you are searching for a product to coverage your blemish problem. It is not the thing that you are searching for. But for me, It is really great for my daily make up. I don’t feel that I’m wearing powder to my face, again it is very very light and sheer.

May contain: CL 77492, CI 77491, CI 77499

Packaging: It comes in two compartments. The upper compartment is for the powder and the bottom is for the sponge. It has air circulation so that when I damp the sponge. It can be dried easily. The compartments system also make it more hygienic.

Coverage: sheer to medium. Damp the sponge with little amount of water to get more coverage.

Or may be add some of foundation as a base.

Staying power: I try it, without using any foundation or concealer. I use the sponge in damp condition to cover my face. It still last for about 6 hours after praying dzuhur, as I noticed.

Little Reunion

     Last weekend I got a chance to meet some old friends from my Junior High. It's been 7 years after our graduation, whatta long time huh? We've decided to hold up a little reunion at Kebun Raya Bogor and choosing train for us to go. Felt like I'm back to the past, when I met them. We cheered, we laughed just like those years before now. We aren't the same anyway, some of us taller (off course not me T_T) some of us slimmer or even bigger. But time seems to freeze our togetherness ;D. Yeaah!! It was mean sooo much for us especially me. I still remember those faces in that blue white shirt uniforms. Making a crowd for doing some homework together or only for gossiping that handsome guy in front.  

leaving on a train

share some laugh
on me: shawl : cosmo_xsml multi way shawl | dress: H&M  | legging : unbranded | shoes : converse

Dear friends, 

I might turned my face away when we first met,

I might didn't pay attention to you,

We might ever shared our love,

You might ever hate me, even more,

We might even stop talking until now,

after all,

you are my dear friend..............

Hugs and kisses from Me!!!! XOXOXO
