Great Discovery: Korean Makeup
Some time ago I wrote about my obsession with Youtube gurus. Since then the number of channels I follow has even increased and my obsession got even bigger (gotta be addicted to something, right? ;). Among all gurus that I follow are also Chriselle, Michelle and Jen, girls with Asian roots, who introduced Korean beauty products to me. While watching all those videos in which they praise about Asian cosmetics, I decided to try it out. I mean, who wouldn't want soft porcelain skin like theirs?! So I typed 'Korean makeup' in Ebay search and found brand Etude House. Bingo! Not only is it extremely cheap, but it's also very good quality (which doesn't happen very often) and just look at those cute princess-perfect packagings! I ordered three products at the beginning but I'm sure my Korean collection will get even bigger in future.
ETUDE HOUSE GOODBYE PORE EVER PRIMER
I haven't been using a primer for a while now but when I tried this one, I realized I've been missing out a lot. Goodbye Pore Ever evens the skin tone and makes your face look fresh and soft. It's suitable for all skin types and tones. The texture feels like silk and it's perfect for cold winter or hot summer days. I always use it after applying my daily cream and before foundation. Price: 8,30$.
ETUDE HOUSE ETOINETTE CRYSTAL SHINE LIPSTICK (in color PPK006)
This cute princess packaging immediately caught my eye. It was actually the main reason for my purchase, next to wide range of different colors. When I got it, the packaging wasn't the only thing I was excited about. The texture of lipstick is very moisturizing and creates a divine feeling on your lips. It gives you that juicy and shiny effect and even if it lasts very long, I guarantee you'd want to re-apply it every half an hour (so soft, ah). It comes in eight shades and costs only 3,66$.
ETUDE HOUSE ROSY TINT LIPS (in color English Garden)
The main reason I bought this product was a special applicator which is some kind of sponge that absorbs lipstick and creates long lasting apperance. I usually apply it after linig my lips with lip liner. Add a touch of lipgloss over it and the result are full and kissable lips. You can choose from eight shades ranging from orange to pink and deep red color. Price: 8,18$
Are you also as excited about Korean beauty as I am? Let me know which products are your favourite, since I'd love to extend my small Korean collection ;) Xo
Pred nekaj časa sem pisala o svoji obsedenosti z YouTube gurujkami in danes lahko rečem, da je moja 'odvisnost' samo še večja. Med vsemi kanali, ki jim sledim, so tudi Michelle Phan, Chriselle Lim in Jen, dekleta azijskih korenin, ki so me navdušila nad korejsko kozmetiko. Morda se 'korejska kozmetika' na začetku res sliši malo čudno, ampak zagotavljam vam, da nima nikakršne povezave s cenenimi izdelki kitajskih trgovin. Ko sem si tako ogledovala videe, v katerih dekleta neizmerno hvalijo vse te lepotne izdelke, sem se odločila, da jih tudi sama preizkusim. V Ebay sem enostavno vtipkala 'Korean Makeup' in odkrila znamko Etude House. Bingo, zadetek v polno! Ne samo, da je kozmetika izjemno poceni ampak je tudi izredno kvalitetna (kar se ne zgodi ravno pogosto) in v zelooo simpatičnih embalažah. Naročila sem tri izdelke, vendar sem prepričana, da se jim bo v prihodnosti pridružilo še veliko drugih. Poleg Ebaya so izdelki Etude House na voljo tudi v spletni prodajalni Destination Pretty.
Že nekaj časa nisem uporabljala primerja, ob nakupu tega pa sem ponovno ugotovila kakšno razliko naredi. Goodbye Pore Ever izenači ton kože in jo naredi gladko. Je primeren za popolnoma vse tipe, saj se prilagodi naravnemu odtenku kože, lahka tekoča tekstura pa ustvari učinek svile. Sama ga nanesem po nanosu dnevne kreme in pred nanosom pudra. Cena: 6€
Moram priznati, da me je pri tej šminki najprej pritegnila simpatična roza embalaža, ki je čisto taka za princeske! Poleg tega je bila neverjetno poceni (približo 3€), zato sem si jo kupila in.. bila pozitivno presenečena! Tekstura je izjemno vlažilna in na ustnicah ustvari božanski občutek. Je tudi zelo obstojna, na voljo pa je 10 odtenkov, ki so razporejeni glede na oranžni ali roza podton. Priporočam!
Še eden izmed 'korejskih izdelkov', ki me je prijetno presenetil. Za nakup me je (poleg spet zelo simpatične embalaže) prepričal poseben aplikator, ki je nekakšna gobica, ki se navzame šminke in na ustnicah ustvari izjemno obstojen videz barvice. Na voljo je osem odtenkov, ki zajemajo vse od oranžne, do pink in temno rdeče barve. Cena: 6€.
