Etude House Cosmetics Haul and New Endorsers

I miss blogging and it's really been a long time! 
I have a few stuffs from Etude House that I failed to post and review
 coz aside from being busy my freaking laptop's still not working.
 I'll be updating you guys with some of the lippies that I have, and more.

The last time that I blogged I was all over SHINee and Dara.
Even when I went to Singapore their faces were all over Orchard Malls and K-Street in Bugis.
 I even watched SHINee's concert, alone.


Now they have their latest endorsers, SM Entertainment's Fx members
Sulli and Krystal.


Sulli and Krystal shares the same company/agency with SHINee.
They're from a 5 member girl group.
They're called F(x).


I knew that Sulli will be the next in line coz Etude House Korea was the sponsor
2012's teeny South Korean drama "To The Beautiful You".
Most of the casts' toiletries were from Etude, including Kwanghee's lipbalm
that made me laugh coz it looks familiar.


He's using the SHINI Star Lipbalm in Cherry, the main character from the drama's shade
(Minho's a.k.a Park Tae Jun)

I have 5 of it!! Then when I couldn't even use all of them at the same time,
I gave some of it to my cousins. I've done reviews from the past too, 
just click the "Etude House" label at the right lower side of my blog.

One lippie's left for me, and it's the guava flavor.

Throwback!! This has been my favorite picture, and I did an inspired look last year.
Unfortunately when I watched the concert last December I wasn't able to do this.
I was too lazy and I went to Singapore Indoor Stadium early.

For the makeup tutorial and to see the products used, click this link:


Now let me share with you the sweet smelling, sweet tasting lip tints!

Sulli is using the Fresh Cherry Tint in PK001 pink


 I've bought 4 Fresh Cherry Tints from the past, and here's a collage
I made a month ago


I've got the 4 shades!!
In this pic, I'm wearing Fresh Cherry Tint in OR201 Peach

Still can't get over the Kiss Note Era of Dara and SHINee.
I've bought My Blooming Lips-Talk, one at a time.
in this crappy pic I'm using the lippie in OR204 Shy Coral.

So far, it's my favorite since it makes me look glowing,
and it complements my complexion and hair color well.
I used to like nude lippies but now i kinda hate them coz they made me look
ultra anemic. 

Now there's a new line of pink lippies endorsed by Fx's Krystal
called the Pink Talk Line.
I've got PK014 and I still want to get PK012.
I also got  RD306 and PK006

 

Pink play party was held at Marina Bay Sands last August.
Lucky Singaporean fans were able to catch a glimpse again
of the five boys together with Sulli.

I wonder where are my other nail polishes, lippies, lipbalms..
Last time I checked these are the ones left.. :(
I swear from now on I won't let my friends borrow
any of my makeups...
or my little cousins play with them..

I miss my shopping buddy, my bezzie.
She went back to Singapore last February.
Sooner or later I'll visit her there again, and I'll be bringing my baby and my husband. ^_^
Something to look forward to! It'll be next year.


In this pic we purchased lippies and nail polish, both pale pink and baby pink.
He're a few pics from her beautiful hands, and my thin bony hand.


**Trivia* Lippie Color Guide**

PK stands for Pink - PK006, PK009, PK014
OR stands for Orange - OR201, OR204, OR205
RD stands for Red - RD306, RD304
BE stands for Beige - BE101, BE1

So many colors.. new collections..
Here's Sulli's Orange lippie line,
and more.

 

Still, so many stuffs to look forward to!
What are your faves and latest hauls from Etude House? :)

Kpop Fandom: Pearlescent Sky Blue/ Aqua Pearl Inspired Look


Today's look is inspired by the color/s that represents
the fandom in which I faithfully belong to since 2008. 
One day I was just looking at my glow stick
 then I realized that it's possible to do a look inspired by it.


SHINee's Official Fansclub color is still confusing for me.
It has been pearlescent sky blue for a long time,
 then SM entertainment's official website announced
that it's pearl aqua. :(

 Etude House launched the Shini Star Line with somewhat
faint aqua colored cosmetics

  my bestfriend took this photo from Etude House Singapore

Using a palette composed of different shades of blue,
I was able to create this look.


Products Used

Face:

Etude House Shini Star BB Lotion
Sugar Skull Cosmetics Correct and Conceal concealer palette
Origins Original Skin pressed makeup
Avon Simply Pretty dual powder foundation

Eyes:

Fashion 21 white eyeliner as base
Sugar Skull Cosmetics 120 Rainbow Color Palette
Etude House Tear Drop Powder in Crystal Gold
Black eyeliner (borrowed from Maru coz I forgot mine at home!)
Avon Lengthening Mascara

Cheeks:
Elf Blush and Bronzer duo
Maybelline Powder blush in Strawberry

Lips:
Maybelline Colorsensational Lipstick in Angel Rose (my fave!)
Etude House Shini Star Lipbalm #5 Shiny T (guava)




How to:

1. Smoothen your skin and cover blemishes by using a foundation of your choice, 
any creamy concealer will do. Pat your face with powder.

2. Do the brows, then proceed with the eyes.
Colorful eyeshadow pops out if the base is white.
I don't have a white eyebase yet so I use a white eyeliner
and tried to spread it on eyelids. I got monolids so I didn't extend it to my crease.

3. Use a light aqua blue in your inner eyes, a darker one at the middle part.
and glittery blue to the outer V. Blend to avoid harsh strokes and edges.

4. Use the same darker aqua blue to the inner lower rim of your eyes,
then use the same glittery blue to the outer corners.

5. Line the upper and lower lash line with black eyeliner, then smudge it with 
a pointed eyeshadow brush dipped with black eyeshadow. I prefer contouring my
eyes and doing the cat-eye eyelining technique.

6. Curl lashes and coat your lashes with the mascara of your choice.

7. Swipe the apple of your cheeks with peachy pink blush, 
so I mixed my peach blush with pink.

8. Apply any lipstick shade of your choice, then top it off with a lip gloss
or lip balm.


I would love to watch SHINee World Concert II, where
I can see glow sticks everywhere happily dancing
to the music of these boys. I just hope they will include my country
soon, if not, I hope they'll include the second country that
I'm planning to live in a few months from now.


Also I received this wonderful fan good from Singapore
from my friend Marc. Hearing his stories on how he got it makes
me feel so touched. He didn't pay for it though..
He got it from the displays outside the store and hid it in his backpack.^^ 



 A few weeks from now I'll be opening my own online shop
where I'll be selling some palettes, just like what I used for today,
and some lip tattoos just like what 2ne1 is using in this photo.

 
   
 If I will succeed, I'll be able to sell more. If people won't buy it,
then I'll gladly have 'em!!!  It's a win-win situation for me.
I'm soooooooooo excited!!!!!

I'm planning to make more Kpop Fandom inspired looks 
and be creative with my palette.
Next look will be:
