ETUDE HOUSE WANNABE MOISTURE FIX MIST REVIEW

******From my tumblr account www.whatsupmonica.tumblr.com curlsandblushingasian

March 19, 2012

So…another product from Etude House. :) I got this last December, and that time, the WANNABE is their newest line. Everything in wannabe is cute, the packaging is awesome. But I didn't really get everything from the line, the red lipstick is cute but its out of stock (it saved me from impulsive buying!)

When I got what I need, I saw this and the blingbling stick. so another stuffs that I bought that I didn’t plan to..Its really cute!, and my friend told me to just buy it. (I am not a person who always use mists—like i cannot live without it„, but we always remember Daesung from bigbang whenever we see mists, did you watch their secret garden parody? smeeeellll!) haha. so at the back of our minds, we are going to play with it. :))

oh and yes, it is written there that it has a sebum control powder, so i thought its okay to use it. (but I actually prefer the moistful mist which i use sometimes)

It is sealed!

Product Description:  ♥ Supplies instant relief to dry skin and helps to set and preserve makeup longevity ♥ Formulated for Dry Season Conditions : Contains Hyaluronic Acid and oil absorbent powder to foster moist skin and preserve makeup integrity.

I am totally in love with the design of the packaging! Its still available I think, for P478. Sooo, what can I say? Its okay for me, freshens up and provides moisture. (but I still prefer Etude’s Moistfull mist). The packaging is just really…tempting.haha.:)) You may wonder why I use mist when I have combi skin, I don’t know, maybe my skin just feels better, since I’m combi, there are times that some parts of my face are dry and flaky, and some are oily. So what I do is spray the mist after putting on my bb and powder, then on the middle of the day I blot with oil control sheet and use the mist again. This mist doesn’t make me oily I should say, and didn’t cause me any break out.

ETUDE HOUSE DRAWING EYE BROW REVIEW

Hello every one! How is your week going? Its wednesday and I’m home, so another opportunity to make a review. :) For tonight, its about an eye brow liner. ..

I am one of those people who is not blessed with those beautiful eye brows, I don’t have thick eyebrows, instead, i have a very thin pair. So I always use eye brow kits so that I can define my eye brows. 

~~I used elf eyebrow kit before, but when I got Etude House’s Drawing Eye Brow pencil, I find it easier to use and very handy. I got the #1 which is dark brown..

Dual ended!. This side has the pencil (more of like a crayon?^^)…I love it’s shape! The angle makes it easier to use! 

On the other end, it has the brush…

look at that very thin brow..my titas’ said that I got it from my mom! aww.^^ So I was born with it. Eyebrows that are barely noticed. :(

After using the eye brow pencil! Yehey! I’ve got eye brows that are darker! :) Thanks to EH’s wonderful pencil! :D  it works wonders to shape and define my brows.^^

What I like:

- the shape/ angle of the pencil/ applicator is perfect!

- automatic, no need to sharpen!

- glides on smoothly! easy to apply! :) very easy to use :D

- comes with a brush to tidy up your brows!

- color looks natural! :)

- although the pencil is short, it doesn’t finish up fast…i’ve been using it for months now. :D

- available in other shades too…

- inexpensive! it’s less than P200. (can’t remember the exact price.sorry. just go to etudehouse.ph :D)

- very handy

- it does stays long, except if you are sweating a lot and wiping of your face with a hanky of course.

What I don’t like?

-none

~~~If you have an oily skin, you may ligtly dust a bit of powder on your brows to absorb ecess oil before you start drawing :) Take care not to over do it! :p

Annyeonghaseyo chingus! :D Though this might be a late review, I would still like to share my thoughts on this.:) This is my first BB cream ever ( I mentioned about this on my previous post about EH Precious Mineral BB Sheer Glowing), from Etude House. :) This will be a short review since I cannot post photos of it anymore because I already used it up (even before I started blogging), and haven’t bought another one since I’m trying different bb creams.

~~~~Description on the package:Etude House Moisturizing BB Magic Cream with Sun Protection.
BB Magic Cream offers natural looking coverage that nourishes, corrects skin tone and protects against sun damage.
~~~~~Direction for use:
After facial cleansing, apply a small amount of product to hands and spread evenly across facial surface. Cream may give a whitish appearance upon initial application but will naturally blend with skin tone once lotion sets. 

They also have the Refreshing and Moisturizing (but those two doesn’t have SPF).

———-will purchase again :)

Why I love it? 

- brighter and smoother skin

- evens out skin and gives a beautiful glow. dewy look! :)

- it is light and looks natural

- Has SPF 30!

- It moisturizes skin

-  watery texture~~easy to apply :)

- handy, you can bring it anywhere.

- pump is hygienic, though you may have to familiarize yourself with the pump since the cream tends to squirt out. and ooh, it has a cap too! :)

- idk why but i like the smell of this bb! haha^^

- no break outs! :P

- it has english product info on its box^^

- Its cheap! Only P598. :) and I used this for monthsss.:)

What I don’t like?

- oil control is not that good for me (and others complain about its oil control too..), just have to put on powder and blot..

- - - -I recommend but not for those who really have oily… and morena skin since it has a light shade..

ETUDE HOUSE PRECIOUS MINERAL BB CREAM ALL DAY STRONG SHEER GLOWING SKIN REVIEW

******From my tumblr account www.whatsupmonica.tumblr.com curlsandblushingasian

Hello! I know I haven’t posted any bb cream reviews yet, but I’ve been using bb creams (and loving it) since I started buying Korean cosmetics. Actually the first thing I ever bought from Etude House is BB cream (because I’m curious about this product..Referred to as the secret of Korean actresses, and the no make up look, which means you will look very pretty naturally.:) ) Oh well enough with the intro, I know you guys know pretty much about BB creams already.:)

Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong is the BB I use as of the moment (current fave and I use it often^^) I don’t really wear make up before but now, I almost always use BB when I’m going out.

But this is not my first BB. The one below is the very first bb I had (I guess I’ll just post my comment on the BB below on my next post, because as you can see, I already finished the whole thing (even before I started blogging, so I can’t show you its content anymore, ..)

<3 you won’t look oily, you’ll look glowing, ..dewy skin :) (with the BB Magic Cream)

It has three shades. #1 is the Sheer Silky Skin which is the lightest, #2 Sheer Glowing Skin which is the medium, and #3 Sheer Flawless Skin. Before the All Day Strong came out, they have the same bb but without the ADS, sheer silky is for oily skin, Glowing is for dry skin. I got the Silky Skin first since its for oily, but when the all day strong arrived, the SA told me that all the shades are for all skin types, so its still okay to use the #2 or 3 since its for all skin types. So I decided to give a try on #2, since it matches my shade than #1.

The pump. I’m warning you, you have to familiarize yourself on how this pump works. I read on other blogs that others are also having a problem with the pump, because the product tends to squirt out if you pump it fully(accidentally.haha.:)) It happened to me, its all over the mirror and table, and just this morning a friend borrowed this and tried, okay, I got BB cream on the back of my shirt! good thing I’m not wearing white! (my makulit na friend tried it before too, and my laptop and her bag got some dose of BB too„sayang! but its ok^^)

color^^

it really matches my skin! :)

What I love?

- cute packaging

- blends well on skin..it looks natural!^^ no make-up look!

- has spf

- hypoallergenic and oil free

- Anti-wrinkle & whitening

- Anti-darkening

- the pump because its hygienic

- dewy effect

- Price is okay compared to other BB creams :) 

- No breakouts

- Smell is ok^^

- easy to apply! you can use your fingers! :P when I don’t feel like putting much on my skin before going to school, I just put on some bb and i’m good to go. :)

What I don’t love?

- it dries pretty quick

- the pump (because it squirts out) but if you are used to it i guess you will have no prob with it.

- oil control is not really good for me. still have to blot and put powder. 

More BB reviews next time :) Keep safe everyone! :) Annyong!:)

Etude House Yogurt Wash-Off Pack Review

I tried this way before. It has 4 fruity scents, apple, raspberry, kiwi and apricot. I love the smeeellll!!! so yummy! ^^and cute packaging as always.

photo above is not mine.i forgot to take a picture of it, when i decided to take a snap of it, i already used up the others.:))

Its texture is a bit watery, so i felt like it was dripping from my face.:)) kinda hard to apply evenly.

I leave it for about 10 minutes. then washed it off. washing it off feels like my face has lotion (slimy, eh?). After washing it off, my skin felt soft and refreshed! :)

Perfect for those days that you want to pamper, and it doesn’t take that long.

Pros:

~fruity and yummy scent

~feels refreshing

~soft skin

~price is okay

Con:

~watery texture
