Wonka

Last Tuesday I was invited by The Dharmawangsa to experience its signature massage named Bimasena Signature Massage for 90 minutes. It was really incredible since its purpose was to make the body fit, fresh & healthy again.


 Before the treatment began, I waited here. The room is so comfy I felt sleepy already. I was asked to fill some kind of agreement sheet so they really knew what's best for me, my health condition & that I agreed about the treatment I received.



First was footbath. This is the only treatment's picture I share due to personal reason. The rest was a super energizing massage.


 I chose to drink ginger tea after the spa & it tasted so good.


The place where I drank my ginger tea.

After that, I received another generous invitation from The Dharmawangsa to enjoy its famous afternoon tea set at Majapahit Lounge. Couldn't say no to desserts, could we?


This was the western snacks. There were beef carpaccio, finger sandwich,black rice with salmon & cheese,chocolate mousse, macaron,raisin scones,creme brulee & mini cakes (The bold ones were things that I ate). I also got to taste the local desserts such as kue cucur & pastel, believe me.. their kue cucur is so good it's crunchy & sweet. The savory bites I tried were samosa.


This was the raisin scones. I added the raspberry compote to make it even more delicious. It's so yummy.


 For the tea, I ordered chamomile tea & I also added a wedge of lemon & a little bit of honey.


Overall, me & the manager of The Dharmawangsa ordered jasmine tea & chamomile tea. All tea come from Jing.

It was such a pleasurable visit. The food was so delightful I was so full that day.

Thank you.

ps: all these experiences were given due to the write-ups for HSBC's Wealth & Beyond magazine.

This product is from Finland and a genius one. It targets general signs of aging like dark circles, puffiness and wrinkles. The formulas are their patented Cloudberry Stem Cell extract with Beautifeye technology.

It is a lightweight cream in white with no fragrance. Apply a small drop on your eye area, morning and night.

I have a great experience using this product. The irritation I had on my left lower eye area suddenly disappeared. It became soft and smooth again. It is a good sign that this natural eye cream is definitely a fantastic product.

For me,Japan is a very well-thought country. Every tools are made with good thinkings with oh-so-cute packaging and literally make our lives easier. It happens to their beauty kits as well. When I was in Japan, I found so much products at their local drug stores that are sooo so so interesting. Here are some of them:

MENTHOLATUM Medicated Lip Stick

  
I was running out of lip balm, and relying on my favorite NYX Butter Lips only. But it wasn't enough. Because of the cold and windy weather in Japan that time (I went there in May 2016), my lips became chapped, dry and cracked. It was not comfortable really. Then I found this product, it was very cheap. It says 'Quick relief: for dry, chapped and cracked lips'. It's a best-buy for sure. It's more of a menthol balm actually without any color but it's so good. I love the texture and the benefits it gives me.

 KOSE Disney SPF50 Spray



 It has other variants such as Toy Story. I picked the Minnie Mouse one instead, it is so cute. This sun-protector spray is genius, it gives you an appropriate protection because of its high level of factor. The texture is so soft, as well as the scent. You can use it on your hair and body, but I recommend not to use it on your face. It is also lightweight so you can easily bring it with you in your bag. I definitely didn't need this much when I was in Japan but I think it would be a nice investment for me when I'm back in Jakarta.

Country & Stream Honey Nail Treatment Oil
 


The oil literally smells like honey. The texture is good, not to slimy like the usual oil. 


The applicator is a soft brush at the tip of the tube, so this product is super user-friendly. Just press the tube gently until the oil comes out.


Healthy-looking nail afterwards!

K-Palette Eye Tatoo



I tried the brown color. This eyeliner is really long-lasting. Even tough it's long-lasting, it is so easy to be removed - in my case with baby oil - and not leaving any stain.

Disney Rapunzel Lip Gloss


I bought this at the official store of Disney. There are many options - Ariel, Jasmine, Cinderella etc - the theme is the famous Disney princesses. Since I liked Tangled a lot, I chose the Rapunzel. Generally it is a regular clear lip gloss.

After all, there are all satisfying. Love Japanese cosmetics and beauty care products!

The first time i saw her was on MTV. She reminds me of Haim. When i saw her music video, i thought it was Haim. I like her music and her exceptionally beautiful figures. And i can't believe that she's only 20 (!) because her voice is mature enough.


Look at those eyebrows...


No kidding that she's also a model


She is a British-Albanian cool girl


Love her gorgeous natural hair so much

A serene view near the Osaka Castle
 


Street food! The legendary and authentic takoyaki


I tried one of these. It's strawberry-flavored mochi topped with strawberry. I got so interested by the look of them 

I dont know what this building is exactly but it looks cool, like anciently cool...
 

Now this is the castle...


The view when i reached the top of the castle

It's always so exciting when i went to mini markets in Japan. There were lots of cute and fascinating food, drinks and stuff to find. For example, this almond milk from Glico. So yum...
