Etude House "Big Cover Concealer Cushion" #vanilla

Etude House "Big Cover Concealer Cushion" #vanilla

by Rosalie


Hi my Lovelies,
I hope you are all well?!

Right now my vacations are gone so I have some stress to prepare things for university and stuff.

By the way, I am searching for a good new camera, does anyone have some recommendations?? It would help me a lot! <3333

Anyway, today I want to write about this concealer from the korean brand "ETUDE HOUSE".

I already have tried the stick concealer from this collection and I was quite impressed!
(check out the review!!)

REVIEW: ETUDE HOUSE Big Cover Concealer Stick

So that's why I had big hopes for the cushion one, too, to be great.


BRAND: ETUDE HOUSE

PRICE: $ 13.20


SUN PROTECTION: SPF30

COLORS: 6

TYPE OF PRODUCT: CONCEALER

In this collection are 3 different kinds of concealers and one foundation.

I got this concealer in the color #vanilla.







To get the product out you have to pump... 




and than you get the product into the cushion, ready to be applied. ;)


In the following pictures you can see how the product look on my skin. Normally I use the color #naturalbeige if it comes to BB cream from ETUDE HOUSE, but at the time when I ordered only this light color was available.





As you can see the color is a bit light for me. I took these pictures in summer time, in winterdays when my skin is getting a bit lighter the color is good.
The product blend well and has a nice smell.
The coverage is not the best but since I don't have so many pimples to cover (or something else) it is really ok for me, because I like the natural look a lot more as if I would look like I have a mask on.



advantages:

-handy packaging
-3 "normal" skin colored colors, 3 special colors (mint, pink, illumniate)
-nice smell
-blend well
-sun protection
-easy to use



disadvantages:

- I am unable to clean the cushion end, so it's quite unhygienique
-not full coverage



So I hope this review is helpfull for you. I really like this concealer and use it quite often.

I also would be really happy if you follow us on facebook and twitter to never leaf a new review out! <33

esfolio "Moisture Soothing Gel Aloe Vera 100%"

esfolio "Moisture Soothing Gel Aloe Vera 100%"

by Rosalie



Hi Lovelies,
same as last time I want to write about a product, wich contains aloe vera extract. It's the esfolio moisture soothing gel in aloe vera. The brand also came out with a snail gel one but since I think that snail gel and cream (and beautyproducts in general) are disgusting (yep, in Germany it is pretty unnormal to use snail beauty products).

I got this big pot within a beauty box from www.beauteque.com but since I got this a while ago they didn't sell the product only on the webside so I can't tell you the original price of the product. Sry for that... :(
Ânyway, I remember this product to be selled around $8 to $10, something like this.


BRAND: ESFOLIO

VOLUME: 300ML

TYPE OF PRODUCT: MOISTURE GEL



 In the following pictures you can see pictures from the product.




Somehow I think this gel looks amazingly cool! :D


When I put this gel onto my skin it feels super refreshing and cooling, wich is really great in summertime. 

When I first used this product I was really shocked how long I had to wait for my skin to fully absorb the gel. My skin is oily but also very dry so normally my skin would absorb moisturizing products really fast. At first I thought that this is really bad but right now I am doing skin massages really often because I feel my face to be really stressed. With a massage the product can absorb fully and my skin can feel super nice and soft. Also the smell is really nice. But I also have to say that this gel isn't as moisturizing as other (aloe vera) products are. So this can't replace a moisturizing cream fully.


advantages:
-great for skin massage
-cooling and refreshing in summer
-low price
-nice scent


disadvantages:
-the moisturizing effect is low
-I really dk where to buy it right now!!
-my skin doesn't absorb the product fast


so all in all if you want a nice cooling gel in summer or a product for skin massage I highly recommend this product. But if you are searching for a rich moisturizing product you should search for something different.

I hope this review was helpfull for you.

I also would be really happy if you follow us on facebook and twitter to never leaf a new review out! <33

Nature Republic "Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist"

Nature Republic "Soothing and Moisture Aloe Vera 92% Soothing Gel Mist"

by Rosalie


Hi my Lovelies,
winter days are really hard for my skin and I am really happy (for my skin!!) that these days are nearly over. Normally I don't have dry skin but in cold winter days I have problems with that.
When my skin was super dry I was so happy that I had this mist on my side. I was using it since summer but in winter it was really great!! 


BRAND: NATURE REPUBLIC

 PRICE: $ 9

VOLUME: 150 ml

TYPE OF PRODUCT: FACE MIST

 





After a long day of work I was removing my makeup and after I was using the mist every day. It's suuuuper moisturizing and makes my skin feels super soft.
Plus: I apply my moisturizer or sleeping mask before I go to bed but after removing my makeupo there are some hours to "kill" between. With this mist it was no problem. And it has really a nice smell. I am loving it. Right now my mist is empty and I have ordered the same one again (still waiting for it to arrive!! <3)!

So if you are searching for a nice moisturizing product, this mist is really something you should try out! Me and my sister we both are in love!

I hope this review was helpfull for you.

ETUDE HOUSE Play 101 Color Contour Duo Stick

ETUDE HOUSE "Play 101 Color Contour Duo Stick"

byRosalie


Hi my lovelies,
today I want to share this new product from ETUDE HOUSE.
the "colour contouring play 101 pencils"

As you may know contouring your face is really a must for many professionals to do (for me it's still somehow difficoult! haha, I think I look damn ugly with contouring my face!!) :D
Within this content, ETUDE HOUSE now got a new contouring method. It's not with shades and highlighting, it's more that you correct places on your face that have a strange coloring, to simply make them look nicer and make your whole face look perfect.

For example I have some red spots around my nose. Then I should add something from the gree pencil to correct the color, that it doesn't look red anymore.I think the idea behind it is really cool.

On the packaging's there are little sketches where I am supposed to apply the color. Plus the makeup artist PONY made a example where she put the colors to correct her face the best.




 


BRAND: ETUDEHOUSE
PRICE: $14,40 (ONE PENCIL)
COLORS: 3
TYPE OF PRODUCT: COLOUR CORRECTUR CONTOURING


In the following pictures you can see how the colors look like on my arm:

 


To tell the truth, I can't imagine me in the beginning to apply blue or purple color onto my face. And there are 6 colors that have to look good on my face. That's really so muuuuuch!!!
But I have seen that you can buy just one pencil and don't have to buy all 3 ones. So if you exactly know what you want to correct into your face that will be the best to choose the color. On the sketches (If I use all 3 pencils) the colors would overlay each other. MH... I don't think that this is right. So if you use all 3 colors I think the idea how to use it from PONY is a good one.




Here you can see Violetta, using the different colours (thank you Violetta for modeling!<33).

without products

#1 Peach Orange&Yellow
 
#2 Mint&Blue

#3 Lavender&Pink



all colours



To use the pencils perfectly I think you have to try them out a bit before you get the best result onto your face. 

I think it is easy to blend them with a foundation brush or a beauty blender. The only colour that confuses me a bit is the blue. It is nice to blend but you still see the blue... Its not like with the other colours.
Violetta is really impressed with the #1 to correct the dark circles under the eyes. My favourite is the green but also #3. They all work nicely.

For a natural and easy look I use primer and then these pencils on top. But you can also apply foundation on top of the pencils. The pencils leaf like a silky finnish, so if your skin is dry I think you can get shocked how bad they blend in. But with a nice skin condition I have no problems. (Just telling you to not use a powdery or silky foundation on top. The pencils are not supposed to moisturize your face. You have to use different products for that!)

But all in all I like the product. Still, I need some training to get a perfect result with them, since I am not using contouring for my make up I am really bad at this! haha. But even when I am bad at contouring I get some nice results, so if you want to try out the product you should give it a go. It's easier as you may think in the beginning and it somehow is fun to try the colours out, too.

I hope this review was helpfull for you. If you still have some questions please feel free to ask! <33

colorfull snowflakes Nail Tutorial

colorfull snowflakes

Nail Tutorial

By Rosalie

 



 

Hi Lovelies,
today I was in the mood to share another nail look with you. Again, I know that I am not a professionel but I enjoy doing this from time to time. So if you feel the same, please feel free to share your nail creations with me I would love to see them! <33

In the following picture you can see the things I used to make the nail look.






#1 unicorn snow ball

First make shure that your nails are clean and free from other nail polishes.



Than you add a little dot on the top of your nail in one colour...



add some more...



and more in a few different colors.



(and again on a different nail :P )









For a nice finish you add some clear nail polish and then you are done! <33








#2 snowflake



Again your nail should be clean to start up with the look! :3

 

Then you should choose a color from the first look (it looks the best if you choose the darkest color) to draw a snowflake with the nail tool.





And to give it the best finish add some clear nail polish. DONE!

#3 one color



For the last nails I want to bring something light and without a special pattern into the look.

So I used the same color as from look #1 and #2 that all nails match together. These looks are for the remaining nails without any polish to complete the look.
 



The first easy design is just adding some color on the top...



and for the secound look you color the whole nail. That's it. <3


After my nails look like this:








I hope you enjoyed this nail look tutorial. Please share with me if you try out some of my ideas! <33333
