[Video] Vlog [In memory of my belated mom] + Hijab tutorial

Salam 'alaikum all,

Finally I come up with another hijab tutorial video. Sorry if I talk too much in this video. I just wanna share how I feel after my mom died. This video is dedicated for my lovely mom who's now in heaven inshallah...

 

Everything from Him, will go back to Him

Thank you, Mother. Thank you for EVERYTHING that you've given to me. Allahummaghfirlaha warhamha wa'afiha wa'fuanha... Till we meet again there :')

Meanwhile enjoy the tutorial girls & I hope you'll like it ^^

Happy practicing

[Event] Soulfly Jakarta Concert! [102212]

Salam 'alaikum all,

Finally, after 5 years waiting... UNEARTH was heere! Iyah, gue tau mereka cuma jadi band pembuka. But what the hell? Overall menurut gue performance Unearth & sound nya msh lebih baik dari Soulfly. Walau gw tetep jejeritan liat Max Cavalera. I watched a legend who has the book in which my pictures are in it. How cool is that? Aaaakkk!! Last night was oohh-some! *eargasm*

Wassalam,

[Movement] @MariBerhijab 's second meeting

Salam 'alaikum all,

Fiuhh, it's about time I have to come back to write a journal again since my mom passed away. I didn't have any gut / motivation to write or record any video for my Youtube channel. I grieved too deep. Who doesn't think that it's the end of the world when your mom slip away from your world forever? I had to remind myself that Allah doesn't like to see His people get stuck with their grief & the downfall and stuff like that as if they don't have any grip to get on their feet again & move on.

I have Allah, and so I can be strong, even stronger than I could imagine. Alhamdulillah... I'm moving on now. I know my mom never left me alone. She's with me. She is me. She is :)

Anyway, for a starter to keep myself busy (and useful for others), I and some of my sisters in @MariBerhijab movement held a second meeting on Saturday, Oct 13 2012 at my office. We were planning on our short-term events & activities. Came up with several points of what-to-dos, had a nice funny chitchat & ended up praying Dzuhur then having lunch together at Solaria, Plaza Festival. It was quite a productive day, that day :)

I hope @MariBerhijab movement can be one tiny inspirational thing out from other bigger inspirational things to move many muslimah's hearts to chase for their hidayah and start wearing hijab for their own good. In Islam, it's not just about making friends with good people, but also reaching the arms of other good people who still can't find the goodness in their own selves. That's why we're here, to help Muslimah in finding their goodness.

Dan bagi tiap-tiap umat ada kiblatnya (sendiri) yang ia menghadap kepadanya. Maka berlomba-lombalah (dalam membuat) kebaikan. Di mana saja kamu berada pasti Allah akan mengumpulkan kamu sekalian (pada hari kiamat). Sesungguhnya Allah Maha Kuasa atas segala sesuatu.[QS. 2:148]

 For those who wanna know more about our movement, kindly follow our Twitter @MariBerhijab, like our fan page and our Wordpress blog. Or if you wanna ask anything to us, kindly email us at mariberhijab@gmail.com.

Women are noble people in Islam. Let's not degrading that value. Respect ourselves. Cover ourselves. See ya in our upcoming events, girls. Keep yourself updated ^^

[Review] D'Eyeko Premium Lashes; Natural Volume 154!

Salam 'alaikum peeps,

I got another pair of false eyelashes from a brand that uses only natural hair & a 100% handmade. Yes, we're talking about D'Eyeko!! So this is the last pair I have. It's a Premium Lashes Natural Volume with code 154.

Kotak bulu matanya. Simple ^^

From the package, I knew these false eyelashes will bring an extreme difference & nuance to my eyes, and also will make my eyes look wider and bigger. Because well, I have these Asian-like eyes *iye iyeee, mata gue emang sipit* -__________-"

So here they are my eyes without any false eyelashes, with mascara on & had been curled with the eyelash curler.

Without false eyelashes

And here is the difference when I had put one false eyelashes to my left eye

One false eyelashes on

See the difference? Quite significant, huh?

Yeaps! These false eyelashes is lighter than the other two that I've posted before, but the hair is longer and they create natural volume to your eyelashes. So yeah, basically this product creates a big difference for slanted eyes like mine.

Here's the result

Both false eyelashes on

 

See? Really makes a difference, right? But amazingly they don't look "cheap" or "fake". Well of course, because the D'Eyeko Premium Lashes are a 100% hand-made with only natural hairs. A better natural look for my eyes ^^

But even any mass-producted brands have their own weakness. Actually this depends on personal taste. For my taste, I don't really like the plastic hair-connective. Because it's rather hard to be glued in my lid & it's even harder to cover the white plastic with another layer of eyeshadow / eyeliner. Really, I've tried several times to cover the white connective but it's still uncovered :( Yes, for my personal taste, I'd rather use a false eyelashes using a string / yarn connective. But again, it depends on personal taste :)

Overall from the three false eyelashes from the D'Eyeko brand, I like these series most. Nice! ^^

Wassalam,

G.
