Hauling for Christmas Scents! (Bath & Body Works)

Lately i have been over excited for christmas as you may know from my previous post that i transformed a plain tree into decorative christmas tree. Also if you guys notice especially who live in US, most of the stores already put christmas stuff up everywhere even make me more more and more excited. So today, i went to mall and stopped purposely at Bath & Body Works store and as usual that store looking awesome perfectly preeeetieh.. I looked christmas scents stuff here and there and i completely lost in my own christmas world (*trying to sounds so exaggerate*). And you know BBW stuff are attractively made!

They have some deals on wallflowers plug scent stuff like 4 for $20 and 6 for $24. I picked 6 for $24 in which i got 2 fragrance plugs and 4 fragrance bulbs. Then i also picked one fragrance room spray (Frosted Cranberry) and one mini hand sanitizer. So everything was around $31 and i got coupons of $10 off with purchase $30 from my previous shopping so i had to pay only $21 for 8 items! Im so happy!! :D And if im not mistaken you can get this coupon code or any coupon codes from the website (click here). That's such a good deal and you shouldnt miss it if u are BBW lover especially they have awesome range selections scents for christmas season!


- 2 Wallflowers Fragrance Plugs
- Vanilla Bean Noel Hand Sanitizers
- Frosted Cranberry Fragrance Room Spray
- 4 Wallflowers Fragrance Bulbs ( 2 of Fresh Balsams, Vanilla Bean Noel , and Frosted Cranberry )

They said the wallflowers lasting up to 6-8 weeks but many reviews that i have read they said it last to 4 weeks. And i plugged one with Fresh Balsam now, for the first minutes i thought it didnt work at all then in 30 mins to one hour the scents starts to spread out slightly strong and soo nice until now. Hopefully they will smell good and noticeable everyday!

Do you have wallflowers from Bath and Body Works? Which scent you love the most for this upcoming Christmas?

DIY : Tree Transformation!


Does anyone excited for christmas already? I am! I know some of you guys probably gonna say : oh calm down, this is only november seriously! Hmm i know, im excited for christmas too early and cant help myself lol.

Okay do you guys remember the post with title My 1st Photoshoot / Make-up "Marissa Cornell" ? When we were doing photoshoot , i happened to find a small falling down tree and got an idea to transform it as my christmas tree to be placed in my bedroom. Then i carried that tree all our way back to the school apartment.


Feeling so happy that night, photoshoots done, got free tree, i was thinking alot how im gonna work on this tree. Around 1 week later, i went to dollar tree to get all the stuff i need. I spent around $15 in total.

As always, i planned to get the pictures of all items i bought but then i forgot because i was too excited to start the project lol. Instead i will just mention them : multicolored christmas lights , multicolored ornament balls, red tinsel garlands, red ribbon, decorative bows.

When i started my work, it was such a PAIN to eliminate those branches as much as i could. Having too many branches meaning alot of work for me to wrapping with the ribbon. Then i started to wrapping the tinsel garlands from the bottom all the way up and change with ribbon to wrap the small branches. I used glue gun here to make them tightly wrapped against the tree. And there is most enjoyable part : start decorating! I put some ornament balls here and there..


Then all of sudden i thought why dont i hang some pictures on it ?


And finally done..... with very cute bows and lights! :)


This might be a very different christmas tree ever but it works for me. And this is how i usually sleep at night with :


Do you like DIY project? Have you done it lately? If so, what was it? :)

October 2012 Favorites!

Hello! As always i am little bit behind to making monthly favorites post than most other beauty bloggers. For October i cant presenting make up items due to havent been purchased any make up stuff in these past months. I still have good amount of make up items and i dont have idea what to buy also i been using same stuff over and over and you guys know most of them already included in my previous favorites post.


1. Biore Pore Unclogging Scrub
I got this a long time ago, maybe around 5 months back? I use this as my exfoliator, twice a week and i absolutely love what the feel it gives after use. I cant really see improvement on my skin from using this, but i keep using it since it doesnt break me out and feels so nice on my skin.

2. Suave Rosemary + Mint Shampoo
Super affordable shampoo from Suave line. And this one works well for my daily shampoo. Based on what i learned at school, if you have oily dandruff issue on ur scalp, try to get treatment products with rosemary formula to it will fighting against itchiness. Other good stuff to find are lemon, cedarwood, and thyme.

3. Suave Rosemary + Mint Conditioner
This one is really good too. The smooth of my hair does noticeable by touch.

4. Vaseline Total Moisture Cocoa Radiant (Body Lotion)
The smells is really like cocoa, you gonna love it if u like cocoa smells. And it does make my skin smooth all day.

5. Yankee Candle "Christmas in Paris"
Smells mmmmmm. You can tell how much i love this by seeing the picture.. i almost run out! It has pure pine smells, so relaxing and the intense of the smell is awesome! Yankee candle is the best!

6. Candle Holder from Bath and Body Works
I got this from clearance section. The price was cut down from $8 to $4. Yeah baby! :) Wanna see how beautiful the candle and the holder look together?


Well i know it doesnt look that perfect because the candle obviously way taller than the holder but i still love it <3

What is your most October favorite? Share me ;)

All These Manicures!

I know i seems dissapear from blogosphere ever since i started my school. I realize this isnt easy to keep blogging constantly within a week at least. Either if im in the mood for blogging or literally distracted by bunch of homeworks and exams. And by the way, how u guys been doing? How was your halloween? Was it fab? Mine was pretty fun and i didnt dress up due to lack of idea for who i gonna be. And that was my first halloween too here. If your Indonesian, you will understand that it's not really "big thing" there for Halloween celebration. That's why i kind of little weird and had no idea what to dress up as. I had fun though watching almost all my friends dressing up in various costumes. :) My roomate was being barbie doll so i helped her to done her make up and as usual i didnt remember to take pics of her barbie look.

Anyway, i have many manicures i done a while ago that havent posted yet here. so this is the time :)
