Etude House Look At My Eyes PP502

Somehow Etude House brand eyeshadows do no get as much love compared to the brands BB creams, skin care and lip products.

Originally I had wanted to buy Look At My Eyes in the color sweet potato latte (a dupe for Bobbi Brown Heather) a color used in the drama "The Innocent Man," but I accidentally picked the wrong color. A happy mistake, in my case, since this PP502 color is uber pretty!

It's a deep purple with no glitter or sparkles. I like to use this color to line my eyes rather than the typical black or brown. The purple looks great with brown eyes and it adds a hint of unexpected color.

Pigmentation is wonderful. One swipe gets a generous color payoff. It doesn't have any fall off. As with all eyeshadows, I always prime with Urban Decay's Primer Potion before use.

May Favorites!

My first monthly favorites post! Usually I tend to use my products for a month before I swap them around, so I thought it would be nice to share the products I enjoyed using most.

1. Maybelline Age Rewind Concealer
A hyped product on YouTube, where I first discovered and heard of this product. Usually, I tend to stick with high-end concealers, since I find it to have better pigmentations. But I found this Age Rewind Concealer to be especially great for highlighting rather than concealer.
Downside? packaging. After one use, it practically exploded somehow. So sad since a lot of product was wasted.

2. Josie Maran Magic Marker Lip & Cheek Stain
I used to own a similar marker tint from Revlon. I enjoyed using it, but somehow I lost it. I feel the same about this Josie Maran marker. The tint looks natural, but I didn't find it to be long lasting. Also the price ($19) was a bit much since I could buy a similar product at the drugstore for half the cost. Pass.

3. Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint
Love, love, love! This is more of a gel-type tint, rather than the watery ones. Gels tend to sit more comfortably on my lips. If you have pigmented lips and haven't found a tint that shows its true color, this this one is a MUST! I find it much more pigmented than any other tints I've tried thus far. Cute packaging and highly affordable. I own all the colors, but this red one is my fave.

Etude House Peel Off Base Coat

Glitter polishes are beautiful, especially as an accent nail color, but removal is a pain.
This cool bottle of peel of polish is handy, when you want to remove polish quickly!

The color is a milky white that dried clear! After one generous coat, it really does work!

I've seen some people make a similar type of base coat with Elmers glue, so give it a try!

Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint Swatches

My bad beauty habit is the fact that when I can't decide on a color, I will buy them in every color! Of course, sometimes it ends up being a bad decision (especially if the product sucks) but in this case, buying all the Fresh Cherry Tints from Etude House turned out to be a wonderful decision!

Lip tints are usually not made for pigmented lips, but these cherry tints are so pigmented! The pink actually looks pink on my lips. With other tints, I may need to conceal my lip color in order to achieve the color in the bottle. 
When this tint dries, it isn't glossy- it's more of a semi-matte finish, which is flattering and natural. There's no obvious scent, which is also great. Highly, highly recommend! 

Etude House Bling Bling Eye Stick Review

These pencil type of "eye sticks" are now super popular. I like them because I can quickly swipe it on my eyes and blend it out with my finger.

I decided to choose this pale, shimmer yellow color mainly because I like using these type of shades on my inner lower under eye :)

This product from Etude House is pigmented and does not crease at all. It's really affordable and comes in various shades!

Etude House Wonder Pore Freshner

Toners are an essential part of my skin care routine. This Wonder Pore Freshner claims to have 7 benefits in one bottle! Mainly it is related to pore care and deep cleaning.

I decided to pick up the 500 ML bottle since it has a convient pump at the top! I do not regret my purchase one bit, since this toner is really amazing! Since using it, I've noticed smaller pores  because this toner keeps my pores really clean!




The liquid looks just like water. There's not strong scent; it smells a little bit like witch hazel.

Since this bottle is very big, it will most likely last me a full year!
