Etude House

I have always known that Etude House has a shop here in the Philippines (SM Megamall), but never really went inside to check out the products. At last, i was given an opportunity to do so when I was unable to get myself Dr. Jart+ BB Cream (yes, I am somekinda into Blemish Base creams right now). Etude House's BB cream was my alternative bet.

So off we trotted to the Etude House shop. There were 3 kinds of BB creams there: two Magic BB Creams for oily and for dry skin, and the Bright BB Cream. I asked what was better for me, and naturalmente the saleslady told me to get the more expensive one, the Bright BB cream. I told her that I wanted to test it, not only on the side of my face but on my whole face. She happily obliged and after putting just a small amount of BB cream, I looked in the mirror. WOAH.

Unbelievable. My face still looked natural, but brighter. AS if an enhancer was put on. There was no trace of "foundation-y" kind of look. Just my skin, enhanced. I was sold then and there.

I was feeling make-up-y that time so I put on this eyebrow kit, plus a small dash of blush, and lipstick. I love the lipstick I got too, so even if I know I have a lot of tubes already, I still got it. In the end, I got myself these:

Bright BB Cream
Eyebrow Kit
LUCIDarling Lip Rouge
(I got the No. 10 I think it's the last one though it looks dark here)
It still looks dark above, oh well. But that's the one!
Cleansing Tissue

A lot of loot considering I was only after the BB cream initially! I don't mind though because I love the stuff I got! I will definitely come back to purchase more loot such as their cleansing oil as well as this product which they claim as the best wrinkle lotion!

Anyways, on to the BB cream... I've been using the Bright BB cream 4 days already and so far I am happy with its consistent results. My face didn't "cake" even when it was hot or cold, inside or outside. I didn't turn gray (the term I think is oxidize). The whole day my face looked radiant and again, enhanced. Very natural-lloking. At first I thought of getting Dr. Jart+ or the BRTC Gold Caviar (online!) to have a comparison but nah, never mind. I am happy with my Etude BB cream. Well unless my dear sister gives me one of the two I mentioned, hehehe.

Pics, you may ask. Well, I don't have a decent camera to take pictures of myself. The only one I have is the real made-up me, which I took right before I left for the Muji Launch:
Etude House BB Cream and Eyebrow kit, Revlon merlot-colored lipstick, Nars Orgasm, The Face Shop black eyeliner


EDIT: I got a picture! Just saw it now hehehe. Taken last Sunday.

Hi,

what colour is the bb cream you use in the picture? I'm trying to decide to buy online and there are four shades and I have no idea which one to get. But the one you are using here looks great!
