Tweet Etude House is a Korean brand who are certainly very prolific – they are always releasing new products and colours to existing ranges! This fairly new eyeshadow duo caught my eye – it comes in 4 colour choices and the orange duet really called me… The shade is OR201 – there is also a pink, brown and purple choice. The idea of these duos is to create a fuss free soft and natural looking eye make up.
Tweet I really can’t resist a nice lipstick…maybe it’s because if you find a great one, it’s an instant perker-uper, maybe that’s why I can always be tempted by a new colour or formula. When it comes to Asian brands, the general consensus is that they are glossy, sheer and with sometimes creamy. Even when a lipstick has a word in it’s title like ‘deep’ implying rich colour, the lipstick may still be very much a sheer! These {Read More}
Tweet Japanese and Korean brands constantly come up with new product ranges and the most ridiculous names. What is Mineral Scaling? Sounds like something a builder would do to the roof. “Right love…your roof…it’s not good news, you’re gonna need mineral scaling…” Alas, I was curious. Holika Holika skincare is packaged so nicely, however I’ve yet to find a Korean skincare product I’d call essential. Pore care in Asia is big news; maybe it’s the climate plus oily skin or {Read More}
Tweet Etude House are forever coming out with new sub-ranges. One of their newer collections is the Help My Finger (ahem) range, which is a collection of nail care products. I got a selection of items to try; Sunshine Whitener, Overnight Nail Hardener, Quick Dry Drops and Essence Spa (a cuticle moisturiser). Help My Finger…is an unusual name for a range of nail products…I know this. For some reason, Korean and Japanese brands do come up with the strangest names!
Tweet Everyone hates trying to get glitter polish off right? As someone who hates taking nail polish off normally, the thought of getting glittery polish in it’s many many particles off is a complete nightmare. I have tried the foil technique (putting some nail polish remover on a pad then wrapping the nail in foil) and it kind of works but takes ages and dries my nails to buggery. So I spotted this on my eBay browses. Yes, I browse {Read More}
Tweet The first time I paid attention to Tony Moly’s nail polishes was with their rather spectacular Galaxy polishes - since then I’ve kept an eye on their other releases. When I spotted this rather small Wonder Woman collection, containing a striking Wonder Blue GS11 and Wonder Red GS12 I had to buy them! Both of these polishes are super glittery with small silver particles and larger rounds chunks of blue and red glitter. I think these colours work for all {Read More}
Tweet The thing about a brand as big as Etude House (Korean) is that they sort of think of sub brands that cater for everything. One of the newest ranges that caught my eye was Sun Prise, a range of sun protection products. The range has a high SPF of 50 and is more beauty related than normal sun products. I got 2 items, the Smooth Primer and Fresh Sun Powder from eBay: How cute is the packaging?! The cartoon {Read More}
Tweet Did I tell you I don’t seem to have time to do face masks anymore? Not even sheet masks because it’s hard to move around when you have one on! Nevertheless, I finally found some time to test out the numerous face masks I keep ordering from eBay. Holika Holika’s Medi Medi range consists of 3 treatment face masks for different issues; Acne, Magnesium (for pores and excess oil) and one has Vitamin C (for brightening). I chose the {Read More}
