Stevie Wong: Dove

[Event]: Afternoon Beauty Stories with Dove X Beauty Journal

Beauty Saturday, December 02, 2017

Hello loves,

How have you been?

Today I'm going to share with you guys a little about the last event I had with Beauty Journal and Dove. It was a very warm and close knitted evening spend together as we all know each other so its just like a bonding session with friends. This event is by far the event with the most activity but I don't really mind since it was fun and inspiring. So without further ado let's begin with the event recap.

The event begin after our chief editor of Beauty Journal said her opening speech and we began preparing for the various fun activities prepared for us. During this event we are all divided into four different groups and each group will move together to perform the activity at each check point. I am so happy that my team weren't;t the ambitious one, we are more of the chill and happy go lucky team. Our team focuses on having fun and seizing the moment!

Checkpoint 1

"From Comment To Compliment"

So on the first activity we're all asked to turn comment into compliment. It's actually an activity that is so relatable as our job is so close with social medias and comments. We got comments on everything and everywhere and our Job is bound to it. We're stick to it days and nights but sometimes we often got hurtful comments that can actually bring down our mood. People these days feel its okay to say hurtful or hateful words just because we choose to show ourselves on public. However they shouldn't forget that even public figures are human and no human are supposed to make another feel bad about themselves. Writing hurtful comments or hate comments trying to bring another person down would say a lot more about the person who said it compared to the person that receives it! So even though you hide behind your monitor, screens or keyboards just know that another human is actually on the other side of the screen reading all your stupid comment! So let us all be a decent human that know how to filter our words and mind our language. During this activity I was actually pretty shocked with the comment scenarios given to us cause for me some of them are pretty rude, mean and savage. Thus making it even more hilarious for us to response and turn it into a positive compliment ! Truly the most fun part of the whole activity

Meet my team leader!

Checkpoint 2

"How To Me Time"

During the second activity we gained more insight about the product varieties of Dove Body wash. They have recently launched three new varieties of body wash: Go Fresh Cool Moisture Body Wash, Go Revive Body Wash and Deep Moisture Body Wash and one soap bar. Then we're asked to share about our personal fave me time, for me personally I have a lot of fave me time. Me time for me is something that helps me recharge myself! My ultimate fav is sleeping, watching K-dramas and taking a warm shower after a long day. Taking a long shower indeed melt away all the tiredness ! Apparently sleeping is the most popular me time in my team... Well we're just ladies that loves to sleep!

Before moving on to the last activities we are asked to try out the snacks prepared for us. Everything is so good, especially the miso tofu! I literally had tons of it :p It's too good, can't help it.

Checkpoint 3

"Through the Ages"

Now for the last checkpoint we're asked to share about the inspirational woman in the portrait that has passed down their life inspiration from generations to generations with their life and work. So each group has to represent the character on the portrait and share about the woman that according to us is similar to the individual in today's world. My group got Rasuna Said, so she is an Indonesian woman leader that fights for the rights of equality between man and woman in workplaces during her time. Well today we chose our Minister of Minister of Maritime Affairs and Fisheries, Susi Pudjiastuti who is also a proven successful entrepreneur. Today she is the living proof that female can be equal good in their job as man and she has shown outstanding achievements in there career through determination and discipline. As each group are asked to send out one member to represent the group, I was honored to be the one representing my group. I did messed up a bit but I think I pulled it off safely, so thank you to be dearest and supportive teammates !!

Guess that's all for this post, I hope you enjoy this post and find some helpful tips & tricks and positive kicks! If you want to find out more about all the fun activities during this event do kindly watch my vlog below.

[Event]: Dove X Sociolla Beauty Journal

Beauty Monday, June 19, 2017

Last Friday, I was invited to attend Bring Back The Moisture of your Beautiful Skin during Ramadan with Dove event which was hosted at JS Luwansa Hotel Jakarta. Thank you Sociolla, Beauty Journal and Dove for having me at this event. In regards with the current fasting in the Holy month of Ramadan, they also hosted a dinner session together to break fasting together. It was indeed a magnificent event with very few invites to make the event feel even more intimate. So I'll take you on an event recap on this post as I give you my honest review regarding the latest Dove facial foam products. Make sure to read till the end, Let's get started shall we?

During Ramadan especially while fasting they discussed how much our skin can be dehydrated as those who fast won't be able to drink till its time to break fasting. Which will indeed cause dehydration for the skin because they lack the amount of water needed to keep them moist. However during this event the dermatologist explains and share with use some useful tips and also the uniqueness of this latest facial foam product from Dove. When we talk about Dove most of the time we'll think of bathing soap and hair shampoo but now they launch a face facial foam. Actually when I hear Dove I already have this brand image in my brain that say "moisturizing" because that's what the brand promote about their product since day one! (or at least since the day I'm aware about the brand)

Head of Sociolla Beauty Journal, Mira Monika💖

Before starting as usual kak Mira will say some greetings and opening speech which was followed by the representatives of Head of Marketing Face Care PT Unilever Indonesia TBK, Ms. Fiona Anjani Foebe and R&D Manager Skin Care PT Unilever Indonesia TBK. At the event we discussed on how to maintain moisture on our skin during Ramadan season. During Ramadan and specially for those who are fasting they would loose more moisture in their skin because they're not able to drink therefore it was said that a special facial wash is needed to help maintain the moisture in our skin.

According to the dermatologist dr. Melyawati Hermawan SpKK normally facial wash in the market are not designed or formulated with any formula that will help increase moisture on the skin as cleansing is usually associated with cleansing deeply which requires stripping off all the dirt/ makeup/ or dead cell on our skin which will eventually strip off the moisture level from our skin. Therefore during Ramadan season when absorbing moisture from drinking water is a barrier they who practice fasting should be more careful with their choice of facial foam and that's where DOVE latest facial foam cleanser comes in handy with it beauty serum formula.

This marks the official launching of Dove Facial Foam

A corner where we can check our skin moisture and demo corner.

Look the foam is so smooth and soft that it can hold on to the plate! The foam lathers so well that the bubbles created from this Dove facial foam is so small that it can cleanse thoroughly.

Now lets move on with the demo section, here the Dove representative explains on the newest product and showed us how well the product lathers.

First she only put a pea size of the facial foam on the hand and put it onto the face wash medium to help create the foam for cleansing then she spray in water an start squishing until the facial foam lathers, it lather so well and look so smooth that it even look like snow.

Here's a little tip shared by the dermatologist, she said that every facial foam should be lather into foam on our palm before rubbing it onto our skin, because it is the foam that cleanse the dirt and using the foam after lather on our hand will help minimize the risk of stripping off all the moisture and damaging our skin layer. The foam from Dove facial wash is also something that differentiate it from all the facial foam in the market as it is super soft and puffy that is said to be he secret formula of Dove facial foam to avoid moisture lost after washing our face.

My fellow bloggers

Yeah!! We won Sartob 💖 Thank you Sociolla and Beauty Journal

Thank you once again for having me at this event and now moving on to the products. On the goodie bag I got all the three facial foams, a face wash band and a furry Matt💖💖💖 Thank you so much Dove you surely know what we love and need! Cause I received all three but I only have this one face I can't probably try them all so I'll just share my thoughts regarding the one I have already tried and give you a brief overview on the rest, okay? All the facial foam by Dove contain Nutrium Moisture Beauty Serum that is the secret formula of Dove facial foam. It is the combination of Stearic Acid and Glycerin, which are moisturizing formula that helps to improve the condition of skin barrier and increase water level in our skin. By that being said making Dove facial foam different from other facial foam as it help to maintain the moisture on our skin after every wash while cleansing thoroughly without stripping of the moisture. There are three different varieties of Dove facial foam: Dove Facial Foam Beauty Moisture, Dove Facial Foam Inner Glow, Dove Facial Foam Deep Pure. Aside from these Dove also comes with a 3 in 1 Makeup Removing Foaming Cleanser.

These three Dove facial foam varieties are made to cater to different skin concern. I'll discuss a little product overview, to be frank I was kinda hesitant to switch facial wash because my skin is sensitive and it acts out quickly if something is new or not suitable for my skin. However I decided to give the normal one a shot because I believe Dove would be a gentle product, even though I'm still gambling on how my skin will react to it. But guys the good news is this product doesn't leave my skin feeling squeaky clean or stiff. The beauty serum which is also the main ingredient in this facial foam making it the only product in the market with Nutrium Moisture beauty serum is the key factor that ensure that even though we're cleansing our face but the product won't strip off all the moisture from our skin but on the other hand helps retain and boost moisture in our skin.

Dove Facial Foam Beauty Moisture

This is the Dove Facial Foam Beauty Moisture is suitable for normal, sensitive and dry skin. This is also the only product from all three variant that I've tried and I really like how it leaves my skin feeling smooth afterwards. As I've explained above, a great facial wash option for you when you feel your current face wash is stripping of your moisture or overly cleansing your face. The beauty serum makes the skin feels smooth and moist after every wash.

Price:

100g: Rp. 33,000 | 50g: Rp. 22,000

Dove Facial Foam Inner Glow

This Dove Facial Foam Inner Glow is suitable for normal and dull skin as it gently exfoliate the dead cell which will eventually make your skin look more healthy and glowing. Can't say much cause I haven't try this out however if you feel your skin is looking dull give it a try!

100g: Rp. 33,000 | 50g: Rp. 22,000

Dove Facial Foam Deep Pure

This Dove Facial Foam Deep Pure is suitable for oily and combination skin which makes it great for those who have excessive sebum production. The micro-puff particle help to clear and cleanse deeply into the pores without stripping off the moisture in our skin because of its beauty serum formula.

Price:

100g: Rp. 33,000 | 50g: Rp. 22,000

3 in 1 Makeup Removing Foaming Cleanser

Actually this is not in the goodie but it come in my gift package that I got for winning the best photo content during the event. However it was one of the product I'm very curious to try because as someone who wears makeup often cleansing is essential to maintain my healthy skin condition as my skin is very sensitive so extra care is needed. I would usually go for double cleansing no matter how tired I am but there are days I wish I can finish cleansing in just one step thats why this product caught my eye as it is a facial foam which is also a makeup remover. I love this innovation which makes it as an option or lazy bums like myself to finish cleansing in just one step. Aside from the time effectiveness actually too much cleansing can cause the moisture in our skin to diminish so actually by minimizing the step we can help retain the moisture level in our skin and avoid it from being dehydrated. I've tried using this for the past two days because I got kinda lazy to double cleanse and jump in directly with this product when I came home to cleanse my face. It's definitely a gentle foaming cleanser and even though its gentle but I can feel it really cleanse my face thoroughly. After skipping my usual double cleansing steps and only using this product only I was afraid that my skin would react badly but good news, it didn't break me out which means this product really help to eliminate all the makeup/ dirt residue on my skin even with just this product! Good one. This product is said to be 3 in 1 which means it is a makeup remover, facial foam and beauty serum all in one in this one product! It comes in 150 ml which will be good for a while since a little goes a long way.
Price: Rp. 100,000
