Etude House Haul and Review

Ok, so I finally got to visit my real home. Kidding! Haha, well anyway, I actually got to visit Etude House. Etude House is a Korean cosmetics line that is just new to the Philippines. Prior to getting a branch in Festival Supermall, Etude House used to only have one branch in SM Megamall. SM Megamall is one of my favorite malls of all time, but going there just to visit one shop is really not that practical so when I heard that they've finally opened a branch in Festival Supermall, I saved up and went there as soon as I could :D Hihi,,,Well okay, I did a huge damage to my now tearful wallet. It was worth it though, I finally got all of the stuff I've been ogling at while looking at other blog posts/hauls in the web. I find their stuff cute and affordable, as compared to some of the stuff from skinfood and other stores I know. Some of their designs remind me of the designs from Ana Sui though haha. But I like that line as well so it's no biggy. I'm uber happy with the stuff that I got from that store. Along with the rest of the EH stuff I got are the top two stuff that I super wanted, the Proof 10 Eye Primer and the Color Me Nude Lip Concealer. I bought a total of 9 stuff. I got a free BB Cream Cellphone/bag charm and a membership card. You actually get the membership card if you buy 500++ stuff from them so go and buy some stuff there. :) hihi.

here's my Pink Membership card that I hang on my coin purse

The complete damage haha

So here's my review so far...

First stop is the Proof 10 Eye Primer. It's not as close to the Urban Decay Primer Potion but it does help a lot since I have a problem with making my eye make up last long. The packaging is uber cute and the consistency is just right (Well for me it is haha). I've used it for my own make up and for my cousins' graduation make up and it did just the trick. Super amazing. Plus it isn't as expensive as the UDPP.

Second is the Color Me Nude Lip Concealer. This and the primer were my top choices before I got the chance to visit Etude House and I guess this is because of my total love for nude lips. haha. When you think about it it's actually similar to a regular concealer but it's more lip friendly. Plus it has a sweet scent that I actually love. It doesn't completely cover my lips but when I use it with my Revlon Nude lipstick it actually does the trick.

Third is the Oh M'Eye Lash Petticoat or the Mascara primer. It's a good primer for both black and colored mascaras. My mom gave me a Rimmel Electric Blue Mascara and before I put it on I usually use this product first. It makes the Blue color of the mascara pop out more and the mascara stays on longer. And I think my lashes stays put more when I have this on.

Fourth is the Petit Darling Eyes single eyeshadow in dark purple. It's very pigmented and it's easy to blend. I didn't expect the color to blend as easily since the last few korean branded eyeshadows I got failed with giving me that. I love the color! Purple is really the color of the year and I'm loving it! Too bad I didn't have this during graduation. It would really look great in my eyes.

Fifth, the Etude House Lash comb. It's relatively cheap but it's really helpful. Michelle Phan, a youtube makeup guru taught her viewers how to tight line their eyes and how to put mascara on using a cut out from a card right? well, with this tool there's no need for that anymore. It helps in combing out the lashes, putting on mascara, and tight lining the eyes. The job gets done faster and a lot easier.

Sixth, the Black Head Off Finger Tip Silicon. It helps in getting rid of Black heads and white head. I haven't tried it so far since I only have white heads around my nose area. But it does make my skin feel smooth afterwards.

Seventh, my lovely Etude House Romantic Mirror.It is so cute! It kinda reminds me a lot of the Ana Sui stuff that Fafinettex3 showed in her videos on Youtube. The back has a more romantic looking detail on it.

Eight, the Eye Contour Brush. I was actually leaning on buying either this one or the Stippling brush but I ended getting this one instead. I recently bought an ELF foundation brush so I figured I should try that brush for a bit before moving on to other brushes.

And the Ninth and last of this haul is the Precious Mineral BB Cream. It has SPF 30/PA++. I didn't actually buy it though haha..anyhoo.. It is so good. I'm still trying to finish my caviar BB Cream so I've yet to try it on for a longer time. I did try it once and it felt really good. I don't know if I'll buy a larger one though, since I just bought a BB Cream from another brand. Will blog about that other one soon.

That's all for now. I'll update again soon when I get the chance to buy new stuff haha. :) For more information about Etude house you can check out their website at this site=> Etude Global
