UK Life Part 7: Skin Care During Pregnancy and After Giving Birth

Assalaualaikum

Hallo everyone, nice to see you again.
Today I'm already 13 days after giving birth.
I had laboured on 25th February 2015, for the details I will write another blog for it.


Today I want to share about my skincare routine during pregnancy.

Acne come during pregnancy! "Higher levels of hormones called androgens are at least partly responsible for pregnancy breakouts"

In the first trimester, I didn't have any problem. I was barely no makeup on my face. The acne problems came in the second trimester and  I couldn't do anything about it, as you know, we should avoid chemical products so I just tried to release it..."There's no way to prevent the problem". However, it was hard to ignore the blemish!hahaa  I was using Tea Tree series from The body shop and FTE SKII. Fortunately, on my 8 months pregnancy, my skin had changed and became normal. Acne on my face become less. I don't know whether it was the effect of my skincare routine or my hormone became normal.

Some tips from me to camouflage it:
1. I use Vitamin C Serum 
2. Use Tea Tree BB Cream, very recommended for blemish skin. It does not cause another acne comes, however, it is not full coverage but enough for camouflage
my makeup during breakout of pregnancy
3. Loose powder 
4. Lip matte 


All of those products by @thebodyshop, although I only put makeup on just occasionally not daily. 
On daily basis: I use tea tree facial wash, Vit C serum as moisturizer without any powders, matte lipstick by @thebodyshop and the eyebrows &eyeshadow by mac. And avoid to see urself in the mirror hahahaaaa 


All in all, I prefer light products from well known natural brand because as a mother-to-be, we have an instinct that will leads us to protect our baby, u will consider "baby first" rather than yourself... aaaa life is good 😊😊



After I'm giving birth, I change my skincare routine to prevent acne and the scars of acne.
So I choose cliniques series, however, I plan to use it only a month. In additions, I still using FTE SKII. 
Clinique for blemish skin, it works on me!

Skincare & vitamins after giving birth.. 
1. Clinique Anti-Blemish Solutions Series ( Facial Wash, Toner & Lotion), using these for day & night.. @cliniqueuk 
2. SK-II FTE, using FTE since 8 months of pregnancy and still counting.. highly recommended 👍🏻





3. Vitamin Blackmores, no doubt about it. Walaupun di UK ga ada jd mesti import pesen by amazon ke Australi dan lebih murah beli di Indo huuu 
4. Vitamin Pregnacare buat new mom, very recommended to prevent hair loss after giving birth.. dan sampe skrg si blm nemu rambut rontok ya #alhamdulillah
 5. Hasil muka nya skrg pake clinique ga kering, ga ada jerawat dan ga lengket terus jd dewy pdhal ga pake bedak ato apapun..

co-parenting, is that hard?

Co-parenting? what is that? for you who has "a perfect family" hopefully will never experience this. I started to google it since April 2019. I never know and never want to experience this kind of parenting method. However, some sh%%$ happened and the show must go on.  When you google "co-parenting", you will face several articles about it. Basically, co-parenting means you and your ex-spouse collaborate together to raise the kid, despite your hates and egos. And how to do it? the answer is I DON'T KNOW. I just try not to fight or against your ex-spouse in front of your kid and pretend "everything is just fine". I try to explain the kid every night such as "Mommy and daddy can't get along together anymore, however, we still love you and want the best for you". I will allow my daughter if she wants to meet her dad and vice versa. On the other hand, especially in Indonesia, the "co-parenting" method is unusual. Therefore, you need

My First Freediving Experience in Tunda Island Indonesia

Hello Again. I'm very pleased to write again. Today I want to write about my first freediving lesson experience at Tunda Island. One word: AMAZING. I've been swimming since I was 3, and I did some competition when I was in elementary school. Until now, swimming is my favorite sport all the time. I feel calm in the water, I can be myself, and it's a great "me time" session. Besides that, I often swimming with speed, because I get to use it when I was trained as an athlete. But swimming in the ocean is not as same as swimming in the pool, we should enjoy the ocean scenery, no need to rush. A week ago, I did join a trip to Tunda Island, Serang Banten, Indonesia. It was my first time to go on a trip (you may check on Instagram: @ansor_officialTrip)  alone without friends or family. Fortunately, I met new friends. They are free-divers and fun people. One of them, miss Irma or you can find her Instagram with @_irmave_ taught me how to freediving. She taught me how to br

Covid-19 Experiences

 Heyho I'm writing about my experience surviving from Covid 19. I got Covid on March 2021, and I was in the hospital for 12 days. Fortunately, I isolated in the hospital with my other best friend, Annisa and Kartika. It was quite a funny experience. As I remembered before I got Covid, I can't sleep for three days. So I believe that I got Covid because of stress that makes my immune was dropping. The important thing is to please keep stress away during pandemics. I know It's not an easy situation, but please try hard to avoid stress. Because when you got stress, you can't eat and sleep well, therefore your immune will drop, and the virus could catch you. That's what happened to me. The unique thing about this virus is it has different effects happens to different people. For example, I got no fever, and I still can breathe easily, however, I lost the ability to smell (anosmia) and to taste food. However, a different effect happens to my friend, she had a bad fever fo
