AGELEZ BIHAKU* PREMIUM NANO COLLAGEN DRINK

10:10 AM

Hi Lavs!

Have you ever heard of collagen drink?

I personally never tried any collagen drink before, but I read some blog posts about it and it seems pretty interesting to try.

Firstly, let me introduce you a little bit to the collagen itself.

What is collagen?

Collagen is a the most abundant protein in the human body and is the substance that holds the whole body together. It is found in the bones, muscles, skin and tendons (source)

Why do you need collagen?

Collagen is reponsible to hold everything together. Lack of collagen causes the cells structures weaken. The skin gets thinner and is easier to damage, hair gets lifeless, skin sags and wrinkles, tendons and ligaments become less elastic, joints get stiff etc. (source) (source)

(source)

In short, THE MORE COLLAGEN, THE BETTER your skin, hair, ligaments and tendons are, also your overall health in general :)

Unfortunately, normally with aging, the collagen production gets slower, that is where Collagen Drink comes to rescue.

Agelez BihakuTM is the 1st most advanced liquid collagen supplement with nano-sized made in Japan and now available in Indonesia, that combines 13500mg Premium Nano Collagen with Fast Absorb SystemTM, Salmon Ovary Peptide, Brown Rice Stemcell (Phyto-Ceramide) and 8 other premium ingredients that will synergistically restore your skin natural glow and help reduce the signs of aging from inside out.

What makes Agelez Bihaku different?

It is the First & the Only Collagen Supplement in Indonesia that is:

1. Made in Japan

2. With the highest 13500mg Nano-Sized Collagen from Salmon

3. With Salmon Ovary Peptide, a Premium anti aging ingredient from Salmon Caviar, with Japan Patented.

4. With Fast Absorb System.

5. With 9 Other Anti-Aging Ingredients: Salmon Protein Extract, CO-Q10, Hyaluronic Acid, Elastin, L-Cysteine (Premium Glutathione Precursor), Biotin, Vitamin C & Vitamin E.

6. With BPOM RI SI (Supplement Import), not ML (Makanan Luar).

I am quite impressed how this small bottle can contain so many benefits!

Here's the breakdown of their ingredients and benefits of each of them

Premium nano collagen peptide: easier to be absorbed by our body

Salmon ovary peptide: Help brigthen skin and diminish dark spots

Salmon protein extract: Anti aging substance

Phyto ceramide: Acts as a sunblock

Hyaluronic acid: Locks moisture

L-cystine: Detox and

CO-Q10: antioxidant

Elastin : Retains skin elasticity and reduces strech marks

Biotin: Delays gray hair

Vitamin C: Helps produces collagen, make skin looks brighter, boosts immune and energy

Vitamin E: Anti oxidant

I visited their booth at Central Park mall. They have a skin test device where it can give you info on your skin moisture, collagen and pigmentation level.

Agelez bihaku is kind enough to give me a goodie bag and let me try their one month package. The package consists 10 bottles of agelez bihaku premium nano collagen drink.

They tell me to drink 2-3 bottles per week and it is best to drink it in the morning on an empty stomach.

I've been drinking this for 2 weeks straight now, and let me share what I think.

TASTE

I heard out there, some of the collagen drink tastes a little fishy and unpleasant.

How about Agelez Bihaku? Agelez Bihaku is peach flavored (thank God). Even though I can say that it is not the best peach flavor in the word, but the taste is not fishy. Overall, it is a pleasant taste.

BEFORE AFTER

Do you see any difference after drinking Agelez Bihaku?

No, not yet.

I honestly don't think with one month package you will see any significant difference.

Well, this opinion might change, who knows within the next two weeks I will see some significant improvement, right? Will try my best to keep you updated on this. I also believe with drinks like this, you can only see improvement if you consume it regularly.

WET N WILD COLOR ICON BRONZERS (ALL COLORS) // REVIEW & SWATCH

2:26 PM

Hi Lavs!

I don't know if you can relate to me, but for me, before I started reading beauty blogs and watching youtube beauty videos, I didn't know about bronzer at all, no, nada. A product to warm up your face and make you look more tanned? But, why? What? haha that was my first thought. Through out the years, the word bronzer is getting more and more familiar to me and I also started to realize, hey, I think bronzing up your face to give some warmth makes sense after all.

Fast forward to few months ago, my friend told me that she was going to get a bronzer and asked me if I wanted one as well. I realized that I didn't have any bronzer in my makeup stash! ~~Well, I lied, I have the bronzer and blush duo from elf, but I don't like it.~~ So I said yeah, why not.

Planned to get the famous NYC sunny bronzer, but sadly, it is not available anymore, I think it is dicontinued :(

So I googled and read more reviews, I decided to get...

* WET N WILD COLOR ICON BRONZERS *

* PRODUCT *

This line has 3 shades available: Bikini contest (the darkest color, deep reddish brown), Ticket to Brazil (medium brown color) and Reserve Your Cabana (which is practically a highlighter, Idk why they put it under bronzer category). Keep reading to see the swatches.

This is how it looks on the pan. It has a sun pattern as well as wet n wild writing. Sadly, reserve your cabana crumbled apart in the shipment, so now it has no pattern anymore.

I got this from drugstore.com, but you can get from Wet n Wild Indonesia website for IDR 98.000.

This bronzer is huge. Let me repeat. It is HUGE.

Look at its size when being compared to the size of my palm.

On a good note, it is a bang for your bucks ;)

I think the packaging is a little bit too fragile. Thus, I think this product is not travel friendly.

* TEXTURE & BLEND-ABILITY *

Buttery smooth! Loving that this product can blend effortlessly on the skin.

* PIGMENTATION *

Amazing. Be careful not to pick up too many product on your brush.

You can see how pigmented it is on the swatches below. It is only one swipe.

* SWATCHES *

As you can see, all the colors are shimmery. So yes, this is trully a bronzer, not a contour color.

Bikini Contest is a reddish brown which may work on darker complexion.
Unfortunately for me, this color doesn't seem quite right.

Ticket to Brazil is my personal favorite.
It is a medium golden brown which appears very natural on my complexion.

Reserve Your Cabana is a very natural looking highlighter for me.
I like this better compared to the highlighter from Sleek Face Form (review here).

* STAYING POWER *
Great! I wore it on a normal working day and it stayed on for a good 8 hours.
On days where I did quite a bit of activity, it stayed around 3+ hours.

--
* OVERALL *
If you are looking for a bronzer with affordable price which gives natural looking warmth & glow to your face, has amazing texture and pigmentation, don't mind the huge packaging,
I'd say you better give this a go!
