♣ In Long Term Relationship with Nivea Lip Balm

Nivea Med Protection (L) - Nivea Essential Care (R)
Nivea Pinkish Boost (B)

Hello happy people!

I love lipstick or lipbalm or something that we wear on our lips than the others make up army. I've been wearing this lip balm for more than six years. So ladies, let me introduce you to my favorite stuff, Nivea lip balm.

The first Nivea product that I wear is Nivea lip balm in pink tube (forgot its name). I love its product. I wear in the night and it leaves pink color to my lips in the next morning. Sadly it has discontinued. So I buy Nivea in the new pink tube - Velvet Rose. I thought it would be just the same but when I opened the tube, I was quite surprised with its color that is a bit darker. And it's also disappointed me with its so sticky texture. The third Nivea product that I wear is Nivea lip balm in red shine tube - Strawberry Kiss. I do love its color, its texture, and its smell. But these are the minus: the color is not long lasting so you have to touch up often and it's definitely not for you who have pigmented lips.

The forth is Nivea in Essential Care. It's just a lip balm with no color. I wear this every night so that I can scrub my lips in the next morning. It makes my lips soft so I don't hurt my lips while scrubbing. Love this usefulness. The fifth is Nivea in Lovely Lips. I LOVE it! Love its smell and its color. But still.. its not for pigmented lips girl. The sixth is Nivea in Pinkish Boost. Some say it makes their lips pinkish. For me it makes nothing but leaves bitter taste. The new product is Nivea in Med Protection. I've been searching for lip balm that can be used for lipstick base. Many beauty bloggers wear Burt Bee's but I want a product that can be found easily here. One day, I read that someone wears Med Protection for lipstick base so since my Essential Care will run out, I buy this. Now I'm stick with Med Protection. It can be used daily and as my lipstick base :)

Med Protection can't be used at the night so that we can scrub it tomorrow morning. Use Essential Care instead.

Update on 04.09.2011
Since I don't have Essential Care anymore and Med Protection doesn't work, I dye for buying Essential Care that is so difficult to find because the stores are out of stock. Urgh! Finally buy this last friday. And I love it! I think its formula has been improved. It is still creamy but is more solid. I don't need to worry like I used to when I must apply it to my lips since I was afraid it would be applied imperfectly. I am not afraid anymore :)

♣ Seven Deadly Sins

Hello happy people!

I heard about seven deadly sins from Winchester brothers four or five years ago. When I know it consists of greed, gluttony, wrath, sloth, envy, lust, and pride; somehow I know I'm going to be pride. So I took this test to prove it.

You can see it. I have three high sins: gluttony, envy, and pride. It means I have low rate of temperance, kindness, and humility. (Seven deadly sins is also called as vices. The virtues are charity, temperance, patience, diligence, kindness, chastity, and humility)

I'm still trying to take this test sincerely. Why oh why when we take a psychology test, what we want is only fun. But when the result comes, we go "Hmm yeah right" or "Really?" *big question mark!*

Greed:Medium
Gluttony:High

Wrath:Medium
Sloth:
Medium
Envy:High
Lust:Medium
Pride:High

♣ Friends Lately

Hello happy people!

This is our second weekend this June and I'm pretty optimistic the nightmare will not happen twice. My first weekend of June is a beautiful disaster. I got cold and fever and at the end I was diagnosed by the doctor that I have kongkuret or kongkuren or mongkuret or mongkuren virus. Damn! (Before, lets pretend there was no misheard so you and I will call this virus as mongkuret.)

A friend had been having cold for a week. She said she has got to see doctor. She has swallowed those medicines. She has worn jacket or anything that suppose to make her illness grave. But nothing succeed. And guess what! Now I am infected her illness!

It was only a cold. So I went to puskesmas. But after I got home, I got fever. The fever has recovered last weekend. But I felt weak. I was able to walk to do my activities, but I was weak. And when the cool wind blew.. it was such an air conditioning with almost null degrees Celcius. So I went to see the doctor again.

Another complaint, another disease. The doctor said I got mongkuret. Have you heard the name before? Have not? So am I. When the doctor told me mongkuret, I went, "Huh? (You sure?)".

The great news is he gave me the right prescription. I was ready to school the following day and the following day and the following day. I can't imagine if it's getting worse. I've swallowed medicines like tablets, capsules, and caplets during eight days. The first three days is four tablets every after mealtime. Then the next five days is two capsules and one tablet every after mealtime. And my mom also gave me ion supply drink and sari kurma. Phew!

Friends last weekend, plus tissue for the cold

Those are good things feels like hell. Not because medicines are bitter but because those make me so full and bellyful (but I'm still survive!). Wish you always be well!
