Review Etude House Precious Mineral Cotton Fit BB Cream

I can never get tired of trying new BB Cream. Seems like since I use it, I never stop to try on new BB Cream. I just loved them a lot.

This time, I will review Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream Cotton Fit BB Cream.

If I'm not mistaken, this one is the improved version from the previous and famous Precious Mineral BB Cream. I heard many good reviews about it and some of my friends love them but I never really had a chance to try it haha.

The new version bottle is slightly bigger with 50 ml contents and a pump packaging. It's kinda bulky but that means it contains more products inside :P They come in different shade and I got the lightest one, N02 (Light Beige) which actually kinda too light for me.

Perfectly even out my uneven skin o.o great as everyone always rave about it. My face looks so smooth afterwards. It couldn't really cover heavy acne scars but that's why we need concealer right? The texture is really light and nice to work with. I found the best results by using makeup brush. ;)

The staying power is quite good and it has a matte finish which I love so much. It last around 6-8 hours on me and great for daily use with SPF 30 PA++. It's also really nice to use if you're on a special occasion such as date or hangouts. Especially for those who don't really fancy using foundation like me. I prefer use BB Cream wherever I go because it feels way better than using foundation. But I don't recommend you to layer this BB Cream to achieve more coverage because it will make you looks like wearing a mask.

WHAT I LOVE
- Nice performance on evening out skin tone
- Light and easy to work with

WHAT I DON'T REALLY LOVE
- Bulk packaging

 Have you tried this BB Cream? :D

Review Etude House CC Cream in Glow

Back with CC Cream review! I am so late with current beauty trends lol. Okay just blame my thesis hahaha. 

This products was sponsored from Etude House's previous event and let's see how good it is.

CC Cream stands for Correct and Care Cream with 8 benefits in one products. 

Anti Aging

Stress Relief

Hydration

Whitening

Sun Protection

Tone-Up

Smooth Texture

Luminosity

That's a lot.o.o From what I know, CC cream more into correcting your skin with skincare benefits which offer less coverage compared to her sister, BB Cream. Most of them offers silky smooth skin or glowy skin. Perhaps it is more into makeup base although some of CC Cream provides sheer coverage.  Etude House CC Cream comes in two different variant which is #1 Silky and #2 Glowy.

Mine is in #2 Glow. Kindly remind you that I was never get into glowy makeup look. So this is something new for me :D

Unlike BB Cream, it has pearly white color with tiny beads that will adjust with your skin color after you blend in. The texture is kinda thick but after you blend it, it feels really light. Note that you also need to work quickly with this CC Cream because it could easily dries. 

.. and freaking white on my hand because I put too much products. You can see that it creates a glowy layer that makes you skin appears more natural. Glowy makeup lover will totally love this :)

Learned from my past mistakes, I only put tiny amount on my face.

Seems not much different but it looks glowy in real life and also helps to even out my skin tone nicely. You can see around my nose and eye area. It become more even after I apply the CC Cream. Lesson learned! Do not put too much products unless you wanna be freaking white. It feels lighter and moisturizing compared to BB Cream.

It is also a nice base before you put on your BB Cream. I love to pair it together with Precious Mineral BB Cream. Looks really nice and natural. Since I haven't tried any CC Cream, I cannot do much comparation. Anyway, this one is worth for those who love glowy makeup look :) Seems like I started to love glowy makeup look now haha.

WHAT I LOVE

-Sleek packaging

- Natural results

- Lightweight
- Even out my skintone

WHAT I DON'T REALLY LOVE

- Nothing!

Review Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion in Honey Beige

Cushion BB Cream hits the market nowadays. :D I was also tempted to see how good it performs. Luckily Etude House Indonesia contacted me and gave me this Any Cushion to be reviewed.

Etude House Precious Mineral Any Cushion

Easy application at anytime and anywhere.

Well, hopefully it's true. :D

Price : Rp 218.000,00

There are two shades available which is W13 (Natural Beige) and 24(Honey Beige). I got mine in W24 shade which is Honey Beige.

And see how high the SPF that they got here. SPF 50/ PA+++ ... o_O waaaaww

Looks like an ordinary compact powder with a separator and the puff on it.

They claimed this cushion as 6 in 1 multi-function products : Sunblock, Sebum Powder, Moisturising Essence, Brightening Essence, Foundation, and Cooling Sensation.

Unlike usual sponge, this is an air sponge that specially crafted for cushion usage. It could help to absorb the products and blend them nicely in no time. I wonder why it should be in blue color though haha. Most of cushion's sponge that I know are in blue color.

Under the separator, you will finally found... a seal :P

To make sure that it's brand new and never been opened before hahaha. Sorry if I disappoint you lol

After you open up the seal, then you will find your beautiful cushion under.

See? Feel like it's packed with lots of liquid :D

The air sponge works great in absorbing those liquid.

It's enough to cover half of my face. 

Uneven skintone, bad dark circles, and a big acne scars that I hate so much :(

Final results... I'm only using Any Cushion without any concealers.

Tempted or not?

This is my first time using a cushion BB. I was really surprised to find out that the results could be even and flawless. The cool sensation give kinda unique fresh feeling when applied. If you pick up too much products, don't worry. Dab it in several spots such as cheeks and foreheads then you can blend them afterwards. Seriously easy! :D Plus it contains high SPF so it's really perfect for daily basis. I was afraid that it would create a horrible whitecast, but when I tried to take several photos under flash lighting, it doesn't make me look like a ghost. ^.^

Coverage is medium as for me. It could even out my skin, cover redness, and light acne scars. You can see that my dark circles are nicely concealed. But you still need concealers to hide a darker scars or spots better. If you're too lazy just layer them one more time. :) Don't layer it too much except you wanna end up weird :P

It also has a nice finish that I love! Not too glowy or matte. Just in between them so your face looks more natural and healthy. If you need more oil control, you can apply a single layer of loose powder after usage. 

Easy. Easy. Easy

Too easy until I imagine that I could do it with my eyes closed. LOL Just dab the sponge gently and make sure the liquid is evenly spread. I even forget to use my brush or fingers as I never think that using sponge could be this easy. Moreover, they also provide the refill, so if you ran out of product, you only need to buy the refills :D

I think this products has solved the problem when we need to do our makeup in the middle of nowhere and quickly. Well, if I have to do my makeup somewhere else, the big thing that bother me is How I apply my base? It is super troublesome to bring your foundation or BB cream in your bag, not forget the mention that they had a chance to spill in too.

Moreover, I somehow prefer to use my makeup brushes because when I blend with my fingers, it takes more time (weird but it is true) and the results aren't neat. Plus it stained my hand. I somehow hate how my hands are stained then I forgot that I haven't put my contact lens in. I need to wash my hand properly before I could put them in... and so on :/ Seriously annoying haha.

With this products, I could do my makeup in the car way more easily :D As you will always bring your eyeliner and lipstick in your pouch. This cushion had completed all my everyday-war equipment LOL. If I need to do my makeup in hurry, I just clean my face with facial wipes and put this on. Paired with eyeliner and lipstick, I'm ready to go anywhere at anytime :D

WHAT I LOVE
- Easy application
- Great results
- Can be refilled

WHAT I DON'T REALLY LOVE
- Bulky packaging (but it deserve a spot in my pouch!)

I'm totally in love and never forget to bring this! I'm highly recommending this to all of you. Just make sure that you get the right shade.

Thank you to Etude House Indonesia for let me trying this wonderful products!

Healthy Face Movement for Etude House

So finally I could finished my very first video tutorial and succesfully uploaded it after 8 hours!! Whoaaa internet connection was very slow ._.

Basically it's about how I do my morning - night routine, about how I apply my skincare, how I cleanse my face and how I do my daily makeup. :D I did this video to support the Healthy Face Movement Campaign from Etude House Indonesia that I'd shared before.

To be honest I'm not really satisfied T_T It's really hard to shoot the whole process by myself and make sure it is all good. Another reason is because Pat refuses to help me! He was agree to help me in the beginning and when I'm ready ... he's gone (playing Candy Crush wtf! hahaha). I was also trying to do a voice over but I'm afraid I couldn't make it on time because it will need more time to do. But I will try my best to make a better one in the future :D

If there's any comment or suggestion, please let me know so I can improve it in the next video.

Etude Beauty Carnaval : Healthy Face Movement

Last month, Etude House invited me to come on their biggest annual event :D Etude Time! This year they came up with Beauty Carnaval theme. The event was held at Mal Taman Anggrek. It is really crowded compared to the last year. I'm so excited <3

All the decorations are in pink and so cute! The cone-shaped-roof of each counter remind me of circus carnaval. Seems like we're in a Etude House Theme Park LOL.

Bloggers are gathered in a private area with many tables and make-up. I met several blogger friends, such as ce Jilly, Vheii, Rini, Gita, and Matcha. It seems I've been disappeared for quite a long time from blogger's event hahaha.. 

And then Ms Yohana started the event by explaining about Etude's latest campaign about Healthy Face Movement (HFM) and also their latest product... the CC Cream that has been famous among beauty enthusiast lately. I was also curious to find out :D 

 Healthy Face Movement is a campaign about how to take care of their face by doing '3ME'

1. Membersihkan wajah dengan skincare 

(Cleansing with skincare)

2. Memakai pelembab atau alas bedak ringan 

(Using moisturizer)

3. Membersihkan wajah kembali setelah beraktivitas 

(Cleansing after doing activity)

I think it's really important to take care of your skin especially when you're still young.They also held a video competition for Healthy Face Movement since it's much more interesting to see an explanation through a video than a long boring paragraph,right? You can check on their Facebook Page for more info :) Everybody could join in and there will be lot of prizes!

After that we're asked to do a makeup competition :D And here's how do I look at the moment

Not much makeup since they told us to came with bare-face. But just cannot came without makeup la, the ugliness will be exposed. So I came with no makeup makeup look LOL.

Etude's MUA is doing a make-up demo that we will do later. It's Korean sweet natural look. :)

 And this is the results. Well it's pretty hard to be captured but I think you could imagine how Korean natural sweet look would be :P

And now it's our turn to create a Sweet Sparkling Candy Look.

 Bare face *_* so ugly... let's see how much I could change...

Couldn't manage to capture any picture because they only gave us 30 minutes. >_<

And this is the results...

 I think I look more like K-POP than Sparkling Sweet Candy Look... am I right?

The reason is because all the eyeshadow that I got was in brown color, black eyeliner and also black eyebrow pencil.  T ^ T I was busy borrowing other items from other friends and it takes much time. In fact, I don't really mind to be given testers as long as they can be used properly. But what I found on my table are  dirty powder sponges, dried mascara, and unmatched eyeshadow color. Even when we're given tester, at least they could provide us a new and clean sponge considering the hygiene issues :) We want to make sure that everything is clean before we put them on our face, right? So I hope they could prepare the items better next time and the competition could be fair in my opinion :).

Anyway, here there are the winners :D

Not forget to do the 'usual' beauty blogger pose

And we could bring their CC Cream and BB cream home! Yeayy! :D

I enjoyed Etude's Beauty Carnaval Event so much <3 And don't forget to join the Healthy Face Movement Video Competition! ;) kindly wait for my video and reviews then.

Review : Etude House Pink Box

As I promised, here I come with the reviews of product that I used for my latest tutorial. :3

What's inside the box?

Onto the review! :D

Dear My Blooming Pact

Come in a super cute packaging with a bow that can be pressed to open the product. It comes in two shades which is N-02 Light Beige and W-13 Natural Beige. I got mine in W-13.It  has a nice coverage and feel light. The most important thing, it doesn't break me out! I love it! Compact powder tends to break me out easily and that's why I barely use any compact powder.

 

  Super cute ribbon button!

 

Lacey puff which is so feminine and so 'Etude'!

SWATCH

They also got the lovely Dear My Series logo carved inside.

However I think the packaging itself is kinda bulky and I'm kinda surprised when the plastic separator comes like this. I think it would be messy because most of Korean Cosmetic compact has come with an attached separator that can be moved  much more easier than this. I also got a feeling that it's quite fragile but haven't tried and will never try to break it too LOL. Just keep it carefully xP

Dear My Blooming Cheek

 

 Cute mini packaging with the logo of Dear My Series carved on the cap.

SWATCH

It has a really nice gradation. It has a really soft shimmery peach-pink color and buildable. So no need to worry for a crab-cheeks. Staying power is quite good.

Dear My Blooming Lips-talk

 

Now I come with the lipstick.

 

Another logo carved on the lipstick. Seriously cute!xD

SWATCH

I swap the lipstick with Vheii because I got the red shades, and I think I had enough of red lipstick already
while she's looking for some xD.A pinkish color and it's really pigmented. What I love is the color can be buildable. You can create a soft color by dabbing the lipstick with your lip brush or finger, or a bold color by applying in several times.

Dear My Milky Gloss

I've heard enough of Etude House lipgloss, and they works really nice since they got tons of color to choose from. And what I got is a super cute milky pink color! It also smells heavenly. It's quite big for a lipgloss product in my opinion. Worth every penny LOL.

SWATCH

I love the color and consistency. But unfortunately it is quite sticky if you wear it alone. But it's not a big matter if you have a lipbalm or lipstick before you put on the gloss. I'm personally love the gloss color and it has become a permanent citizen in my make-up pouch. <3 You must know how much I loved it right??

Dear My Blooming Nail Polish

At first I think the color isn't tempting me at all until I put them on my nails and see how cute it is.

Not lying, huh?

In fact, if you're a big fan of natural look or need something to use on daily purposes, highly recommend this :) Because most of korean cosmetic comes in a lighter formula since they're created for Asian and also comes softer color. They're also available through counters in big mall at your nearest places and online shops.

So is there anybody had tried them out too? ;)
