Review: Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong

Hey, Ladies (and gentlemen)! Today I will review one of my beauty products that I shopped at my trip to Taiwan. It's BB cream. This is actually my first BB cream that I tried. And honestly, I'm not a big fan of BB Cream, but it's worth to try! :)

The product is from Etude House. It is Precious Mineral BB Cream All Day Strong. I choose this type because I am an active person so I need strong and long-lasting makeup. I usually use this BB cream after I use my concealer right under my eyes, and other spots that I want to cover. Not because this BB cream doesn't have good coverage, but it is just my 'makeup process' before I do the whole thing.

So, this BB cream has SPF 30/PA++, Anti-Wrinkle & Whitening, and Anti-Darkening. A lot huh? But, I heard information that face cream which has SPF in it doesn't go well with camera flash. Is it true? Well, you can see in the pictures below. :)

These are the packaging looks like.

This is the BB cream looks like on my skin.

I already applied Etude BB Cream on my face.

What I love?
  • The texture, not too creamy, and easy to blend.
  • Long lasting, 'stick' with your face.
  • Doesn't create face problems.
  • GOOD coverage.
  • Cute packaging.
  • I just use one pump for my whole face and neck.
  • It creates dewy and shiny looks.
What I hate?
  • Not so good with camera flash after long wear.
  • Easy to 'melt', so my suggestion is don't touch your face too much while using this BB cream.
Price?
  • IDR 165000 in Taiwan, in Indonesia it's over IDR 300000
Repurchased?
  • Yes, if I have trip to Taiwan, or Korea. :p
Recommended?
  • Yes
But honestly, I'm not a BB cream person. I just love to use regular face powder. Because, I don't really have skin to be covered to much. I just occasionally use this BB Cream for special occasion. So, ladies, what do you think about this product? Do you use this product too? Tell me what you think! You can comment or tweet me on @notjustbeauty. 

Thank you for reading, my readers. :)

Review: Etude House Bling Bling Eye Stick

Hey, ladies (and gentlemen)! Today, I'm gonna review my Etude House Bling Bling Eye Stick which I purchased in my trip to Taiwan. Just for your information, Etude House brand in Taiwan is so MUCH CHEAPER than in Indonesia. So, if you have trip to Taiwan, don't forget to shop at Etude House, there are a lot of Etude House store there! I was so excited! :)

So, the color that I have is #05 Silver Milky Way. It has a big size color stick for size of an eye. Actually, I love to use this eye stick to highlight my inner corner of my eyes to get brighter eye look. 

These are the Bling Bling Eye Stick Packaging

The size is almost same with my pinkie finger.

This is the color looks like when applied to skin.

What I love?
  • Glittery color, which makes my eyes look brighter.
  • The packaging, I just have to roll it up and down to used or not to used.
  • I can use this eye stick for a long time.
What I hate?
  • Big round tip, which makes me to use it more carefully and slowly, especially for the inner corner of my eye. The rest is fine.
Repurchased?
  • I don't think so, because I can use this for a long time. Maybe in other colors.
So, Which one of you have the same product? Tell me if do you think the same way or not! You can ask me more about this product through comment or my Twitter account at @notjustbeauty.

Thank you for reading, my readers. *kiss*
