Etude House Moistfull Collagen Enriched Cream - First Impression Review

Ola! Happy Monday all and wow I've been absent for a long time @_@ Yeap,busy weeks.
So to make that up,actually I want to post my saviour cream or my HG foundation but ended up poating thia since the photo is incomplete .-.
So,like the title,you know what're we going to review. And why it's first impression?because it's my mom's and I only tried it once (with her permission of course)
This was a longgggg time ago when my skin is in the fatal condition (okay,too dramatic) because my trial using Etude House AC Clinic Trial Kit (reviews here and here)
So let's see how it looks like

 1.So here how it looks like,there's a free mini sized of the essence. Credits to yesstyle (I don't have the picture)

2.Credits to rini shop on ebay













So,I never use the essence,only the cream,ONCE. Why? Actually this cream has a strong scent,especially the essence. Even though I'm not allergy with that but I just want to avoid strong fragranced products to prevent more chemical. I don't need to sniff on it , just sitting few metres from my mom when applying thia,I still can smell it clearly. Oh wow.
So as long as I remembered the texture is white,quite thick,but easy to spread,but doesn't absorb really fast. When I woke up I found my skin is quite moisturized but it doesn't last long sadly,it disappeared as soon after I washed my face :O

Just fyi this product is a bestseller cream in Etude House

So,that's it,yeah I know it's short but I only used it once,okay?

PROS:
Actually I'm not impressed on anything. Thick white cream,easy to lather,like...almost all the cream works that way

CONS:
1.Strong scent,heavily fragranced
2.Took a little time to absorb
3.Moisture disappeared as soon after wash

RATINGS:

1 out of 5 stars

Will I Purchase This?
No. I think this cream works decently and suits more for normal skin. If you're having dry or extremely dry skin,this is not enough. I don't wanna be mean with the star I gave but that's the truth even though this is a hit and big raves but for me it's just a "so so" product,nothing special

So,what do you think? Have you tried this?what is your favorite cream?

Etude House Brush Shower Cleaner Review

Hey all!

Yeah I know. This is reallyyyyyy late!
And I'm still awake lol
So,yeah,since the internet is free at this time why not post on my blog? I'm feeling better already!
So,I'm going to post a brush cleaner /wut
Yeah,you might check that I NEVER post any review of brush thingy. So I do have brushes! I want to post my massive haul from February but haven't post until now *cries*
Now I'm thinking this is the right time to post,...BUT right now (I mean these past few days) I have changed my memory card (in my phone) with new one (to transfer data) thought that after that I'll insert my old MC.Now I have moved my memory card ,insert it into my tablet (I'm posting with my tablet these past few post /eh) but I haven't insert my old MC to my phone,thus makes my phone MC-less *wth*. And it's really late,I'm quite lazy to go downstairs and take my MC :/
So,...yeah...the massive haul post is still pending *sobs* and now....let's get back to the main topic!
Etude House Brush Shower Cleaner!
When I got my brush set,I don't have any brush cleaner.So I purchased a baby shampoo that makes my mom asked me why I I want to buy it ,and tbh I purchased my brush set without her knowing anything.I'm sure she'll be very angry if she knows. But since she kept telling me to put back that shampoo I blabbed out saying it's to clean my brush!But I managed to fool her said it's only one brush ,and whatever the reason my mom said : "you don't need any shampoo to wash it.you can just wash it with water" (she's really out to dated,old fashioned,less knowledge about makeup thingy). Pissed me off,I said I'll just purchase it with my money and then she's like okay,it's your money anyway (well it's only Rp7000) so,no hurt feeling.
But the shampoo is making me crazy!took me so long to clean the brushes from the shampoo that makes me don't want to use the brushes because remembering how it consumes my time to wash them with the shampoo. Back then I've ordered my brush cleaner,but I must wait quite a long time that makes me impatient and bought the shampoo,and now I regret it since I won't use it anymore.what a waste.
Okay,...I think I'm starting to running out from the main topic,
Okay then here's the baby!

 1.it comes in almost transparent pink plastic tube. You can see the blur logo and writings because it's printed in grey. But it's only in the picture,the real thing is very clear logo and writings!
I wanted to buy the refill for this since it's cheaper but my agent doesn't sell it because it's said it always spilled in the package. So..bought the tube one, 250ml. Quite decent amount

 2.the back,with hangul writings, some in English is mainly for descriptions and directions

 3. I'm kinda off when I saw the seal. I think all seal for this kind of thing is sealed in front of the flip mouth,not across it. If it comes from the factory like that,tbh for my opinion the seal's not effective at all!

4.it comes in flip cap,with small holes but decent enough to poor right amount. Better a little bit slow but precise rather than spilling everything,right?










So I only used this once,like 8hours ago,for my remaining new brushes that I haven't clean it and for my brushes that I tried to use it 8,5hours ago. But since it's a brush cleaner I think the result is solid even for only one time usage .
I wouldn't know how effective it cleanse my new brush,but first thing that I'm happy for,it doesn't need a lot of time to wash the soap residue like the shampoo.
For my dirty brushes,even though I only use it once so it's not that dirty (but I won't use the brush again (without cleansing) even if I only use it once) it cleanse very well! I only pour a little on a small plate and swirl my brush a few times and rinse it.
As for the scent,it's very pleasant. Sweet and soft. I just like it!

So what I think about this product?
PROS:
1.Cleanse well
2.Doesn't take a lot of time to remove the soap residue
3.Smells really good!

CONS:
1.The price (for me)

RATINGS

4,5out of 5stars (minus for the price,even though it's not that expensive but still it's quite expensive for me to buy this kind of tools or tools' cleanser thingy)

WILL I REPURCHASE?
Yes ,in refill type! But if there's another better and cheaper brush cleaner ,why not giving it a try?

So do you have any favorite brush cleaner or you have a DIY?

Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base in Green Review

Hey guys happy Sat-night
So,this is my 1st post on February.
Sorry I'm kinda late it's just my cousins came to Medan and I'm quite lazy too to turn on my computer ,seriously :|
So now I'm going to post a review from Etude House's product, Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base in Green!
Yes it's kinda of wayyy too old product.It's from their Sweet Recipe line.
Actually I wish I got the jar version since it's really cuttteeeee, but it has discontinued and came with tube version. The good thing is it's more hygienic,since I heard the jar version doesn't include a spatula,but don't know some who bought it found a spatula inside OAO jackpot maybe?
So I've been drooling and searching which shade is suitable for me?Since it came in peach,berry,and green color.
The peach one is for people with yellow dull skin tone.It helps in brightening your face to make it more 'alive'
The berry one is for people with pale skin
The green one is for people with skin problems/imperfections such as redness,acne scars,etc

So being a girl with flaw-full face (well not the whole face but it's so bad in one certain spot) I decided to pick the green one. Check it out

1.The front box

2.The top












3.The side of the box

4.Ingredients list (click to zoom). The product is good to use for 18months after you open it

5.The tube

6.The manufacture date

7.Twisted/screw cap. I ever mistaken it as a pull off cap and trying hard to pull it. LOL stupid me!
Lucky it doesn't break (yet) !

8.So this red spot is the sample to show how well this base makeup can cover imperfections
Lucky I got one mosquito's bite on my hand for sample, red, you can make it as a substitute for pimple! LOL /slap

9.Splat some cream on the right

10.Zoom! Sorry for wrong rotation ;b
As you can see it's quite runny watery,but believe me when I first tried it,it's almost like my Dear Girls BB Cream (read the review here ) just a little bit more watery,but this is wayyy too watery and I don't know since when it turns out like that and it's easily burst out from the tube!

11.Blended!

12.Tap a little bit more on the spot with a little bit of the base (2layer)

13.Tap some more! (3layer)
















You can see the coverage is quite amazing,medium to full. If you don't have many imperfections,you can wear this base alone,and this base contains decent SPF of 25!
But if you want to apply bb cream after I suggest don't put this base too much since you will cover more with your bb cream later or else it'll look cakey and fake flawless face.You know what I mean?
The downside is if you have dry skin,this might be a troublesome product since it enhances dry patches and make it look really visible. You can remove your dry patches with peeling/scrub and splat a lot of moisturizer and wait for a moment then you can apply this to avoid those cracking face.Just remember you must not apply the base directly after you put on moisturizer because your face is still too wet and make the base runny and can't set properly,but don't wait for it to really fully absorbed (dry) since it'll still show the dry patches (even it's lesser than without peeling etc) and hard to blend on those areas and uneven skin tone finish.
For you who have normal-oily skin this product is good to you. It leaves skin with matte finish with quite good oil control.
This base has scent that I can't describe,first sniff is lovely but a little bit longer makes me sick and want to puke ! (But that depends on who sniff it too).But don't worry the scent will disappear for a moment after you put this on your face!
Honestly this is not my regular makeup,I would use this if my face is really on the bad moment but after some trial I can avoid those 'scars' but my skin is really dry since I used Etude House AC Clinic trial (read the review here and second thought here ) and uneven skin tone so later on I barely use this . I use this (until now) less than 5 times only!Such a waste of my money

And also I notice my face feels 'heavier' after I put this on. Just not really comfortable with it

So let's go to the conclusion shall we?

PROS:
1. Contains SPF25
2. Medium-full coverage
3. Hygienic since it comes in a tube
4. This base has 3 shades to choose depends on your skin
5. Decent oil control

CONS:
1  Enhance dry patches
2. The smell
3. Heavy feeling on the face

RATINGS:

3 out of 5 stars

REPURCHASE?
No. I barely use this product what makes me think to buy another tube?

Who Might Like It?
*People who need more coverage
*People with normal-oily skin/no dry cracking face


So,what do you think?Have you tried this product??What is your favorite base?

Etude House Happy Cleansing Foam - Vitamin C Review

Hey guys! Today I'll review about my favorite cleanser so far.

So,I've been looking for good cleanser that don't irritates,making tight sensation,drying out my skin . And interested with the name when I saw it on my pricelist (I own onlineshops) and search for reviews and man there're tons of great reviews!Immediately purchased 2 ,in Collagen and in Vitamin C.
At first I want to use both,Vitamin C at morning,Collagen at night.But as usual,got lazy before I even start it! Ended up using only one Vitamin C!
1. The bright lemon color! Sorry for the bad flashy lighting and almost used up tube LOL
Honestly it really brighten my bathroom with the color. Just make me happy to see it like the name, Happy Cleansing Foam!

2.The ingredients list

3.It comes in flip cap

4. Let's see how well it works for cleansing make up.
Sorry for the bad rotation. It should be left,middle,right, but now I'll change it into top,middle,bottom LOL
a. Top : Concealer (Forgot the brand,I don't check it /slap )
b. Middle : Artistry Foundation
c. Bottom : Etude House Dear Girls BB Cream (you can see the review here
d. Right: Happy Cleansing Foam. It's quite thick and creamy,but easy to lather. A little goes along the way

I only use BB cream for everyday makeup. I just put this on on my hand to see the cleanser effectiveness

5. Completely blended the foundation and BB cream

6. Spread and rub the cleanser across the makeup. See the color turns yellowish-brownish?

7.Washed and dried with a towel. You can see there's still some sheer foundation and BB cream, and quite visible concealer. Sorry you can see it clearly since the flash lighting

8. Tried to re-wash it with the cleanser. Less yellowish .

9.There's still concealer left even though it quite sheer now. Honestly it almost invisible for me too,and I tried to check it with toner swipe

10.TARA! You can see there's concealer's dirt on the cotton pad.
So,it's still not completely clean














So,as you can see the cleansing power is not really effective. If you want more effective cleanser you can find other cleanser,I'm sure they will cleanse better,since this cleanser doesn't contain 'harsh' ingredients. After cleansing I don't experience tight feeling so it's good. But at some point it bores me since I don't feel that fresh cool feeling. I've been using this for months after I ran out of my Etude AC Clinic Cleanser (you can see the review here and the second thought here) and after I used Garnier cleanser while I'm waiting for this baby to come (you can see the review here) and it last until now! WOW
It's really cheap if I'm not mistaken around IDR70 or so.
There's five types of the cleanser:

Lil bit short funny story: My mom tried it and love it instantly that she forgot to use her Garnier (accidentally bought)  cleanser.She even brought this cleanser when she's out and I'm so pissed (my dad often works out from Indonesia,and when get back to hometown for business,sometimes he choose to stay at hotel so my mom go there,she always ask me to join but I'm too lazy) so when she's back to take care of the house before go back to the hotel I asked her to switch the cleanser (gave her Garnier!). How bad I am LOL /slap

So,here's the conclusion!

PROS:
1. Moisturizing (not drying)
2. No tight feeling
3. A little goes along the way
4. Suitable for all skin type even for sensitive/hypoallergenic type
5. Cheap!

CONS:
1. Not cleanse really well
2. There's barely any fresh cool feeling after cleansing

RATINGS:

4 out of 5 stars!

Will I Repurchase?
Maybe, but I really want to try other cleansers! Kinda like cleanser junkie LOL .

Anyhow how great is the cleanser it's better to use cleansing butter/water/milk/oil/etc to cleanse your makeup properly before cleansing it with your cleanser , even though I don't own one LOL /slap
Oh yeah,I own 1,in sample size,from LOLA Box (you can read the review here)
It's quite difficult to look for great cleansing (makeup cleanser) that suits for sensitive skin like me *cries*

So,what about you?Any comment?Suggestion?what is your favorite cleanser?
