Review: Etude House Moistfull Collagen Sleeping Pack

My first attempt with a sleeping pack.... Wasn't a great experience.

*.. DESCRIPTION ..*

Overnight, leave-in treatment quenches parched skin and replenishes lost moisture for perfectly hydrated skin that glows with renewed health. Concentrated sleeping pack is formulated with Baobab leaf mucus and hydrolyzed marine collagen, premium ingredients chosen for their moisturizing ability and capacity to retain water close to skin's surface. For long-lasting moisture, smooth an even layer of pack all over face and neck before going to sleep. Rinse off in the morning.

*.. OVERALL IMPRESSION ..*

This was one of the first products I purchased for skin care. Not knowing anything, I bought it because it was available for Prime shipping on Amazon, and it was Korean. I believe this product is for dry skin, and not oily skin like I have. It's so thick and sticky when you put it on your face, I had to sleep on a towel so I wouldn't ruin my pillowcase. My face felt sort of wet and heavy the following morning and it was still sticky on my face, which was awful. I could feel my skin get oilier after using the product so I stopped in order to avoid a breakout. It was very nice scented though, sort of a mild floral scent. It just literally felt like I rubbed hair conditioner on my face.

Pros

-Very nice scent
-Definitely moisturizing

Cons

-Not for oily skin
-Left sticky residue
-Very heavy product

*.. SCORE ..*

3/5
I'm not going to give it an awful review just because it wasn't right for my skin type, but it was very heavy and sticky and that's why it's got a 3.

This and all other reviews by me are 100% my opinion. I purchased these products with my own money for the purposes of skin care and decided to review them on my own.

Review: Etude House Wonder Pore Freshner




I think I purchased just about everything on the Wonder Pore line because my pores are so outrageous. I didn't even know what this was when I purchased it but I'm very glad I did. I use this as my night routine toner.

*.. DESCRIPTION ..*



*.. OVERALL IMPRESSION ..*

This product reminds me a lot of the liquid used in ProActiv treatments, just a little less chemical. I was going to swatch it, but it looks exactly like water so I figured there was no point. There is a faint clean smell to it, which is good because I would have thought it was water otherwise. The bottle is very weird. You have to put the cotton ball on this little bowl shaped pump and pump the toner into it. I've been using my hands lately though because I feel like not enough gets on the cotton ball. There's a little glove you can purchase that you're supposed to use with it, and I think I'm going to get that to make it a little more sanitary on my face. After drying my face, I put this toner on and for a second it feels like I just washed my face again. However, once it begins to dry, it feels a little fresher than a face wash. I use a Skin Food toner as my morning toner because it's thicker and moisturizes a little, but this product cleans while it preps your face for more product.

Pros

-Very light toner, doesn't feel like anything is there!
-Leaves face feeling very clean

Cons

-Smells medical
-Doesn't leave face feeling "toned," just washed.

*.. SCORE ..*

4/5
I really like this toner as a night toner, but I don't think it works as well as my other toner. Since I started using it in combination with the foaming cleanser though, my pores have been smaller.

Review: Etude House Wonder Pore Whipping Foaming Cleanser




*.. DESCRIPTION ..*

*.. OVERALL IMPRESSION ..*

I only have one foaming cleanser to compare this to, and that's only because I love this one so much. It's very light compared to the other one I tried, which I'll review later one. The closest thing I can compare this to is a lighter shaving cream that cleanses. It also is supposed to minimize your pores, which it seems like it's doing. I've been using this for almost two months and I just purchased the freshener from the same line, but my pores do seem much smaller. There's not much of a scent either, which I prefer for the products I use in the beginning of my routine. It's just a clean smelling scent, but its mild. I use my hands to wash my face, but I'm going to try to start using the brush. I feel like that might be a little more sanitary and it would get a deeper clean.

Pros

-Very light foaming cleanser
-Feels very clean after rinsing
-Rinses super fast compared to the other 2 foaming cleansers I use

Cons

-Leaves face feeling washed, like with regular soap (other cleansers leave face ridiculously soft after)

*.. SCORE ..*

5/5
I just purchased two more bottles, which will last for so long. It's just that good.

Review: Etude House Kissful Lip Care #01 Peach



So I have a terrible habit that causes me to tear my lips apart. I've never been able to find a solution to this awful picking problem. Every balm, gloss or scrub has made the issue worse and I finally gave up on trying new things and settled in with my habit. I found my way into Korean skin care products and was shopping around on RoseRoseShop when I found this adorable peach lip balm from Etude House.

*.. DESCRIPTION ..*





*.. OVERALL IMPRESSION ..*

If you couldn't tell from the intro to this post, I'm absolutely in love with this!! My biggest issue with lip products is the effect they have on my lips when it wears off. I hate my lips being dried out and I constantly have to reapply a product to keep it moisturized, but if I use too much of a product, it builds up on my mouth. That is not the case I experienced with this!! When it wore off, it wore off but my lips were not dry. I could also apply this several times and it was still light and didn't feel like I had too much on. There are several different flavor options, but I'm mad about peaches so I chose the peach flavor. I have found my lips are less chapped and much fuller and firmer after using this product. It works much better than anything I have ever tried.

Pros

-No coloring
-Wonderful peach scent
-Worked immediately!
-Not only healed my chapped lips, made them smoother and fuller

Cons

-None!!

*.. SCORE ..*

5/5!
After using it for about 2 weeks, I purchased 3 more sticks!
