Etude House Playhouse Event 2012

Last Sunday, I attended the "Etude House Pink Fair 2012 Day 2!" It's actually a 2-day event (April 21-22, 2012) but I only got a chance to attend the 2nd Day. This kind of event is a good way for Etude House Philippines to give thanks to its EH Princes and Princesses. ^_^

The Etude House Playhouse Event was taken place at SM City North The Block Atrium. Princes and Princesses who got tickets could enter the said pink fair. The registration started at 1PM and the program proper was from 2PM-7PM. After signing in the registration area, I was given a marker and asked by Etude's staff to write on their EH Wall.

Etude House Graffiti Wall

I took a picture of what I wrote in the wall and you can see it on the right side of the photo. Yes, it's written in Korean. Can you guess what it is? ^^

The event was hosted by Ms. Earth Philippines 2007, Ms. Jeanne Harn and the opening remarks was given by Etude House Philippines President, Ms. Andrea Amado. This event was fully loaded with beauty and fashion seminars, fun games and activities, performances, free snacks, raffle prizes and other freebies.

Beauty and Fashion Seminars

Etude House Global Specialist Mr. Boram Kim presented a topic about acne and its treatment wherein he talked about how to prevent and treat pimples and serious acne to have beautiful skin. He also mentioned about Etude House AC Clinic Skin Care Kit and the benefits of using this product line. There was also a representative from Fashion Academy Manila- Mr. Levenson Rodriguez who talked about Power Dressing and its importance. For the Beauty Class 101, Ms. Younhee Kang of Etude House Korea Global Make-up Artist gave make-up tutorials.

Etude House Free Facial Care and Make-over

There's free facial care and make-over for everyone who attended this event but I wasn't able to try these things because of long lines.

FUN GAMES: Who Am I - Doll Me Up - Goal In! Pink Powder Spot - Sweetie's Spin

For the game, Who Am I, I was able to throw 2 out of 3 balls and got a Moistfull Collagen Trial Kit. All colored balls have their own corresponding product. For the second picture which was Doll Me Up game, you will fix Sandara's face blindfolded. I think everybody won this game because EH staff guided everybody while playing this game. The prizes for this game were Shinee Folders and Nymph Aura Volumer Sample. Next game was Goal In! Pink Powder Spot. I was able to shoot 2 out of 3 cotton buds to the pink powder spot container. Oh, why always only two, why not perfect score?! haha! Anyway, I got an AC Clinic Trial Kit as the prize for this game. The last picture was the game, Sweetie's Spin. Unfortunately, I didn't win in this game but was given a consolation prize of a Be Clear Moisturizer Sample. hehe! :)

Freebies, Raffle and Game Prizes

  These are the freebies, raffle and game prizes I got from Etude House Pink Fair.


I had to leave the event around 5PM so I wasn't able to finish Ms. Stephanie Dan's acoustic performance as well as Ms. Younhee Kang's Beauty Class 101. The winner of the Etude House Pink Artiste Contest was also announced in the said event.

I want to congratulate Etude House Philippines for coming up with this kind of wonderful event. I must say that I really enjoyed Etude House Philippines 1st Pink Fair Event and I hope EH Philippines will have more fun events in the future.

Product Review: Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong #1 Sheer Silky Skin

I got "Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong #1 Sheer Silky Skin" few weeks ago. I bought it because I have heard a lot of good reviews about this product and I want to try a new BB Cream as well. Although, this is more expensive than my previous BB Cream, I did not hesitate to purchase it. That's all because of the benefits that I will achieve if I use this BB Cream. Please see my description and review below. This BB Cream has four variants/shades but I chose to buy #1 Sheer Silky Skin because it has the closest shade to my skin tone.

Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong #1 Sheer Silky Skin.

♥ Precious Mineral BB Cream promotes silky complexion and brightened look with pearl infused sheer coverage.
♥ SPF30/PA++, Anti-Wrinkle & Whitening + Anti-Darkening

♥ It contains adenosine and arbutin for anti-wrinkle & whitening efficacies. 

♥ It has an improved SPF protection with a hypoallergenic and oil-free formula.  

♥ This is an oil free BB Cream that uses a Breathing Powder technology – so no worries about blocked pores. 

♥ The illuminating pearls provide radiant glowing skin.
♥ It gives flawless and even skin and makes your skin clear and healthy.

3 Efficacies:

♥ Anti-Wrinkle

Price: 728 pesos (60g)

Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong has 4 variants/shades:

                                   - It has the lightest shade among the four.
♥ #2 Sheer Glowing Skin - For dry skin and if you want moist and glossy makeup.

                                        - It has a high covering effect and has the darkest shade.
♥ #4 Sheer Shiny Skin- It is a moist type glossy shimmering BB cream.
                                  - It is good to use with the brand new item "Nymph Aura"

Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong Packaging and Pump

The Precious Mineral BB Cream comes with a pink shimmering box as its packaging which I find really cute. It is good that this BB Cream has a pump so I can control how much BB cream I will use. I did not have a hard time using its pump so far. Its pump is good for hygienic purposes too. ^_^

e.l.f. Foundation brush - the brush I use when applying this Etude House BB Cream

My Review:

Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong #1- Sheer Silky Skin is the first BB Cream I have tried from Etude House. I got interested to try this product because aside from good coverage it has 3 efficacies- SPF 30, Whitening and Anti-Darkening, and Anti-Wrinkle. After few weeks of using this BB Cream, I can say that this suits me well. The BB Cream blends well on my skin. I use a foundation brush to spread the BB Cream all over my face. I have not tried applying the BB Cream on my face with my fingers but I guess it is best to apply with a foundation brush to spread the cream more easily and also for hygienic purposes. If you want this BB Cream to look natural on you, start with putting a pea-sized amount of it on your forehead, cheeks and chin then just spread it. Since the coverage of BB Creams are buildable, you have to always start with the tiny amount then add according to the coverage you need. I think this BB Cream is good for few months since you will just apply it once a day. In my case, I use this BB cream once a day and just finish it with a compact powder. The coverage of this BB cream is good. It can cover/hide blemishes, imperfections and dark circles. What I love the most about this BB Cream is it lasts long. I don't have to go to comfort room often to do retouches. Sometimes, I don't do any retouches at all but my make-up still stays. Thanks to this BB Cream! This BB Cream also looks natural on me. It feels light and I don't feel like wearing a make-up on my face. I so love this! I think this is also good for sensitive skin. It did not give me any breakouts after few weeks of using this. This is the best BB Cream I have tried so far. I will definitely continue using this product and I am so happy about how this BB Cream works on me well. ^_^

This picture was taken after applying Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong #1 Sheer Silky Skin.

I washed my face first with Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea), used toner then moisturizer on my face before applying Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream. Following this routine helps BB Cream glide on my skin smoothly and keep my skin noticeably look healthy and glowing. Lastly, I used a compact powder for finishing touch. I like using a powder brush than a puff when dusting powder on my face for a more natural and flawless look. ^_^

BB Cream is indeed a skin-care wonder which gives good coverage, brightens skin, covers imperfections, moisturizes and protects skin.

Product Review: Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea)

When Etude House came to the Philippines, the first item that I bought was the "Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea)". I was curious about the new beauty store and I was also looking for a good facial wash at that time. My skin is sensitive so I am very careful with any product that I will use or apply on my face. I was very happy to find Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea). I have been using it for almost a year and I really love it!

Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea)

Description:
* It supplies abundant foam and refereshing tea scent to cleanse and nourish skin complexion.
* Contains Peach Tea extract for brightening

Price: 148 pesos (150ML)

My Review:

Although, I have tried a lot of cosmetics from Etude House, the only facial cleanser that I've tried and used was the Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea). I use this facial wash twice a day- morning and night time. I had three good reasons why I was tempted to buy this facial foam when I first saw it. First is, it has brightening formula. I have been using this facial cleanser for a long time so I can notice that it somehow gives a brightening effect on me. It also makes my skin soft and I almost not get a pimple breakout at all when washing my face with this cleanser. Second, it has a Peach Tea extract. Oh, I love fruity scents. The peach scent of this cleanser is really relaxing for me. I feel refreshed! Third, the price is reasonable. You can purchase it for only 148 pesos for 150ML. And this cleansing foam lasts for few months. When you buy it, you can easily notice that the facial foam is creamy and its color is white. I don't know why, but I feel that my face becomes softer when I wash my face with this cleansing foam. It can washes off your make-up too but make sure to use an eye make-up remover for waterproof eye make-up. In my case, I also use toner and moisturizer after washing my face with Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea). I think this facial cleanser is best for people with normal skin. Overall, I'm satisfied with this product.

The Etude House Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam has five tea variants:

*Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Peach Tea)

*Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Aloe Tea)

*Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Green Tea)

*Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Lemon Tea)

*Happy Tea Time Cleansing Foam (Milk Tea)

A glowing and healthy skin will be achieved by proper care and good choice of skincare.
