MUST HAVE ITEMS (If you live in a boarding house, like me :D)

As a college student, I have to live on my own now, apart from my parents because I'm studying in Yogyakarta which is 2 hours far from my house. Here in Jogja, I live in a perfectly comfortable boarding house near my campus, totally comfortable because we have a little garden full of trees in the center of the house soo we can have fresh air every time even when the weather is hot and the owner also provides TV cable in the living room! Ahhh tante Endang is sooo kind (^__^)

Since I live on my own, I have to manage everything all by myself, I have to be independent in taking care of my little 'house' hohohoho. Here, I have several items that I cannot live without (not literally). These items have not only one functions, one of them have like two functions for me therefore I listed them as must have items.

1. Oatmeal

Though I don't like the taste, but I love its functions for my skin. I read several reviews and tips about using this stuff as a skincare here. When my facial wash run out, I can use this as a facial wash. I just put about 1 teaspoon of oatmeal on my hand and add a little water then gently rub it on my face, it will remove all the dirts on my face. 

Not only as a facial wash, I can use it as a body scrub also! I usually put about 2-3 teaspoon of oatmeal into the bowl and add +/- 1 teaspoon of lukewarm water and mix it until it turns into paste then I can apply it onto my skin and rub it gently. I like the effect of this scrub, makes my skin soft and moisture! =D

I don't know about you but I like using Quaker Oatmeal esp. the blue one =)

The third function of this oatmeal for me is as a facial mask, the procedure is like making a body scrub but usually I will add honey or rice flour to give more advantages for my skin. I learn from Bubzbeauty's video, she said that rice flour can help reduce acne scars, now I'm working on my acne problem so I use her tips.

I use oatmeal as a facial mask

I previously used oatmeal that packed in 200g pouch and it lasted for about 5 or 6 months, now I use the 800g one. Let's see how long this baby will lasts. Hoho!

2. Oriflame Tender Care
Been using this product since I was in high school and use this as a lip balm. In my opinion, this product smells like a coconut oil. Oriflame also make another limited edition version of this product like vanilla flavor, chocolate flavor and the latest is cherry flavor.

I usually apply this on my lips after taking a bath, before going to campus (I often doesn't have time to take a bath before I go to campus so this baby is my weapon to avoid haven't-take-a-bath look), and before going to bed. Since I use this, I doesn't feel my lips dry or chapped anymore =B

3. Medicines

I have a digestion issue, therefore I need medicine like promag to reduce the pain. My blood pressure sometimes dropped so I always prepare sangobion in my medicine box. Hoho!

4. Baby Powder

I use this usually to overcome my hands and feet when it get sweaty. I also use this when I'm too lazy applying face powder, I will just spread it on my hands, claps my palms then gently rub it all over my face. It doesn't give me floury looking face and I also feel it absorbs oil on my T-zone =D

So those are my must have and favorite items on my boarding house. What's yours? =D
