REVIEW: Etude House Milk Talk Body Wash - Steam Milk and Apple

Hi! :) 

Aside from BB Creams and lipsticks, I am also a sucker for body wash. Unfortunately, I think I haven't had any reviews for body wash in this blog. I just realized it when I was taking a shower last night. 


I'll be doing a very quick review for my favorite body wash: Etude House Milk Talk Body Wash - Steam Milk and Apple.

REVIEW: Etude House Color my Brows #5 Blondie Brown

I am such a newbie when it comes to fixing my eyebrows. I admire people who are so skilled at 'drawing' their own eyebrows. The only thing I could to is to color them :) 

There was a time that I wanted to color my eyebrows using hair dye. Good thing I didn't or else I would look like Miley Cyrus when she bleached her eyebrows. 



And this is NOT the kind of eyebrows that I want

I am so glad that browcara was invented. I was a bit amused with the term 'browcara' (there's a big smile on my face right now). I don't know where that word came from but this is what we put to color our eyebrows temporarily. 

Here's my review of Etude House Color my Brows #5 Blondie Brown.

Product Name: Etude House Color my Brows 
Shade: Comes in 5 shades - For this review, I have the #5 Blondie Brown 
Price Tag: PhP 255 from my favorite online shop, Han Ryu. I am just not quite sure how much it is in Etude House shops.

REVIEW: Etude House Red Ginseng Mask

Hello!
Time flies so fast. It's already December and next thing we know, it's already January 2014. I've been looking back at my posts this year and I've noticed that I did not post a lot of reviews. :( 



This year was a stressful but blessed year for me (in terms of my career). I've been promoted but along with that promotion comes a handful of stress. Jeez!

I promise to write more reviews next year ^^

REVIEW: ETUDE HOUSE LIP AND EYE REMOVER

Hello!
I am back again with another review of an Etude House product :)
Aside from BB Cream, I am also a fan of LIP PRODUCTS. Lip stains, lipsticks, lip gloss, lip tint - name it. 

I just have on problem with Lip tints and lipstains, sometimes they really stay on your lips for a long time. :(
I am also practicing how to put on eye make-up these days so I had to look for a perfect lip and eye make-up remover. 

I got a sample of Etude House Lip and Eye Remover from an online store on Ebay. I actually loved it! 

Here's my quick review about this amazing product. 

***********************************************


Product Name: Etude House Lip and Eye Remover 
(*scary name. I think it should be Lip and Eye Make-up Remover.)
*From Etude House 

Price: PhP 198.00 
Content: 100ml
This is a lip and eye makeup remover from Etude House. 




It comes in a clear plastic bottle. 




Uhm. I hope my eyes and lips won't be removed after using this product.. :)

REVIEW: ETUDE HOUSE: Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Cream

Thank God for Labor Day!
It's May 1st (as of this writing) and I am so glad to have had some time to sleep. I was waiting for this moment.

At least I had time to update this blog. I miss doing this. 

*****************************************************************


This is my review for ETUDE HOUSE: Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Cream. I bought this months ago and I have been using this for quite some time. I was using Pond's Cold Cream as my make-up remover but I decided to try other make-up remover which doesn't have a very strong scent. 


Name: ETUDE HOUSE: Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Cream
What's this? It's a cleansing cream / makeup and dirt remover. 

Price: PhP 328 pesos at Etude House store in Robinson's Metroeast
Vol. 180 ml
Comes in a jar/tub

Product Description: 
Here's the description from Etude House Philippines website:
 Removes deeply embedded makeup and residues from pores for a deep cleanse.
 And here's the description from the product label: 
Etude House Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Cream is formulated with baking powder to gently exfoliate skin with a cream texture and penetrate pores to absorb oil and residues for a thorough cleanse.

How to use:

Apply cream to dry facial surface and massage until makeup is dissolved.Wipe off face with facial pad or tissues and wash with cleansing foam and water.


And this is what ETUDE HOUSE: Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Cream looks: 

It comes in a big jar like this.

REVIEW: Etude House: AC CLINIC DAILY - TONER and GEL LOTION

I've been on a "sabbatical leave" from doing reviews. I was (and still is) busy from work. Argh. 

My work is giving me a lot of stress these past few weeks. Not only that, my face has been bombarded with zits! Argh! I hate them.

I usually zap my zits with Emu Oil (I will be doing a separate review for this totally amazing product) but I ran out of stock. I buy my Emu Oil online but I had to think of other things to buy from that online store so I could purchase them all at once (aside form the fact that Emu oil is so expensive, the other 'things' that I am planning to buy from the online store was also expensive so I had to hold that I idea for the meantime). 

So I went to my Etude House to check for some immediate solution to ZAP my ZIT. 
(This is what I call the ZAP MY ZIT project!)




And here's the haul that I got:

REVIEW: Etude House Hello Kitty Eau De Toilette

I got a package two weeks ago from a former student. There were a lot of cute things inside!


The box! 

Just when I thought I love Lego... 


 I am not a big fan of Hello Kitty but when I saw these three small cute boxes, I had to reconsider. 


Just look at these adorable babies!!

REVIEW: Etude House BAKING POWDER Pore Cleansing Foam

I admit that I am really lazy. Freakin' lazy. Although I religiously use cold creams and cleansing creams, there are times that I even feel so lazy to wash my face. 

Good thing I have found this facial wash that I can use every time I am having one of those 'lazy-day' moments. 




******************************************

I was so glad when I found out that Etude House opened a branch in Robinson's Metroeast (It's just a 10minute-ride from our house without traffic). 

I immediately purchased one of my favorite Etude House item - Etude House BAKING POWDER Pore Cleansing Foam. 

- I know that baking powder is used for baking (obviously), cleaning stuff like tiles and it's also used as a substitute for toothpaste but I never heard that it can also be used as a facial cleanser. Nevertheless, I tried this.  

I tried this last year but I was too lazy to update my blogs (or even to write a blog). So here is my late review of this amazing facial wash. 



******************************************


THE PRODUCT
-This is an Etude House Cleansing Foam,  
- (I think Etude House has a complete line for this 'Baking Powder - brand')
- SIZE: I think it comes in a 30 ml trial size. I got the full size which is 170ml. 
- PRICE: PhP 380 


This is actually quite big (and heavy too!) 


-I forgot to take a picture of the back part. The product description and directions are written in Korean but there is a very small (quite 'microscopic') English translation.

- This is the description according to Etude House's website (Philippines):
 170ml Foam cleanser exfoliates with micro scrub beads to remove oil, dirt and residues for a pore deep cleanse.
 Etude House Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Foam is formulated with baking powder and to gently exfoliate skin and penetrate pores for a thorough cleanse.
How to use:  
 Apply to wet face and lather.
Massage thoroughly and rinse with warm water.




Infront







- A small amount of this cleanser is enough to create a a lather that will cleanse your face (and for cheapskates like me, that is good news ^_^).


- SCENT: It has this not-so-strong lime scent. (don't worry, the scent is not too strong and it disappears once you have already created a lather. 

- This facial wash is not that smooth and you will feel a bit of some rough stuff (but that 'rough stuff' I am talking about will not hurt your face. Actually, it's relaxing once you rub it on your face.) 



MY TEST

- One thing I look for in a facial cleanser/foam is its ability to cleanse my face. The definition of 'cleanse' in MY vocabulary means removing all the dirt, bb creams and makeup on my face.

- This is how I test my facial cleansers/foams. When I get home from work, I do not use a cleansing cream or cold creams to remove any makeup on my face. I immediately use the facial cleanser / foam that I would test. 
- Then I use a facial toner/cleanser to check if there are any residue/s left. 

- This is MY TEST. 




-For this test, I used a huge cotton ball and applied a facial cleanser/toner. Using only one side of the cotton ball, I wiped my face for five times. If you will notice, the cotton looks clean and no traces of makeup or bb cream can be seen. 




WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS
- First, I love its cleansing power! Not even traces of stubborn BB cream! (and I really love it). 
- I love that I only need a small amount to wash my whole face. It creates a rich lather that's enough to wash the face. (HOORAY!)
- Another thing, I did not experience any breakouts. 
- This is a good facial wash for OILY skin. 
- As a pore cleansing foam? - IT DID A GOOD JOB in cleansing my huge pores. About my blackheads (on my nose), I can still see some traces of blackheads but they're tolerable :) 


WILL I BUY THIS AGAIN:
-Of COURSE! I am officially in-love with this :)

REVIEW (updated): Etude House - Wonder Pore Clay Clear

Finally! I have visited Etude House in Robinson's Metroeast.

When I read a message posted by Etude House Philippines on its fan page in Facebook that their Robinson's Metroeast was already open, I literally had a big smile. 

Yipee!


I went there today (Sunday, Aug 20) to check the items out.
This particular product caught my eye. 


It's Etude's WONDER PORE CLAY CLEAR. (sounds like a tongue twister to me) 

I got curious so I got immediately placed this in my basket. Besides, this is the first time that I would be using  a clay mask. ^_^ 





Wonder Pore Clay Clear (love the blue packaging) 
THE PROMISES: 
This product promises a '7-in-1' total pore solution.
1. Balance your skin's ideal pH level. 
2. Refine skin tones.
3. Deep cleanse pores. 
4. Minimize appearance of pores. 
5. Control a large amount of sebum
6. Moisturize inside and outside of skin.

I am more interested on the pore-minimizing effect and the oil-control stuff they are promising. I have visible pores that can be seen from a mile.  And I have an oily skin which is so difficult to manage. I always get breakouts especially during my period so I hope this product would not make me look like a walking zit. 


THE PRODUCT: 
- Net wt. : 100g 
- The clay is placed in a jar and the it comes with a spatula. 
- PRICE: PhP 678
