Etude House Sweet Heart Capsule #3 ceramide review

 How to use:

Snip the tip off one capsule and extract oil.
Apply oil to face and massage into skin until absorbed.


A total of 3 types in the series, I bought all 3.
Will review the one that contain 2% creamide in this post.

Etude House Sweet Heart Capsule- #3 Ceramide




All the 3 capsule has different funtion, the #3 on is for hydrating.



The texture of the content is a bit to the thick side but it’s not greasy at all when applied on the skin. My skin instantly smoothens when I applied it. The texture and effect is identical to those expensive capsules I have used before. Etude house is only selling at around $15 for 7pc. I think this product is really a good deal.



Worst product of the week

ETUDE HOUSE Black Head Off Oil EX AD




Yes, it’s the worst product I have every used this week.



Detail about the products:

· Cleansing oil formulated with coal, lemon and grape seed

· Coal supposed to draws out dirt and grime from within the pores

· It also contains fir tree oil that prevents breakouts and marshmallow extract to absorb oil and residues for clear, smooth skin without irritation.

· Pack Size - 60ml

Direction:

· After cleansing and patting skin dry, apply and massage oil on affected areas (while the gentle massaging action dissolves blackheads and remove impurities)

· . Leave on for 15-20 minutes, tissue off and then thoroughly rinse to remove excess oil.

· After cleansing and patting skin dry, apply and massage oil on affected areas. Leave on for 15-20 minutes, tissue off and then thoroughly rinse to remove excess oil.

Review:
To be honest, I think it’s like a normal oil base makeup removal. Just a lot more expensive. I don’t see my blackhead getting lesser after I used it. I have used Biore oil base makeup removal and I think it remove impurities equally well and it’s a lot cheaper.

Etude house again....

My sis and i went out for dinner on a wednesday @ city hall... My sis wanted to check Etude house after dinner. So we went.... The Etude house in city link is very near to the MRT station but its usually quite empty, at least its usually empty when i go. They usually have products that i can't find in the CCK branch that i always go.

We got the newly launch bubble mask ( ya... my 4th bubble mask, the other 3 are from shrills)... LOL... I wanted to the get the wash powder BB cream makeup removal but bought the wash powder facial wash instead.. aiyoooo.... I also bought a orange lip stick and a pimple lotion...

I have already used the pimple lotion, it smell quite bad and look likecamomile lotion.... LOL....

Etude house mini size U range (review)

I’m into skincare recently. i have being buying a lot of skin care in particular serum. I'm no longer young so I think its important to take good care of my skin so i won't regret in future.. LOL..


If you have being following my blog you will realize that i use a lot of products from Kenzo and I also use random brands.. LOL.. I'm never faithful when it come to skin care or makeup. I simply can't resist trying out new products and brand.
I having being buying many Korean skincare lately after the good experience I have recently with Etude house products. Will be reviewing more skincare products as I use them. The first review will be on Etude house mini size U range.

50ml serum + 25ml powder toner + 25ml pore emulsion

I bought the full size serum and softener from this range and I got sample size of the toner and emulsion (moisturizer).
This range is formulated with fermented Rice Wine sediment that claim to nourish and tighten pores. It’s suspose to moisturises and subdues facial oil as well.
I have being using it for about a week and so decided to share with you all how I find these products.

I used the softener; follow by the toner, then serum then emulsion



Texture
Both the serum and emulsion are light and is quickly absorbed by my skin without leaving behind a sticky feel. The serum have a sweet smell which I don’t think I like but it doesn’t bother me as after a while it goes off.
The softener almost feel like water while the toner is makeup of 2 layers, you have to shake first before you use. Though the toner container some precipitate but I didn’t leave any residue on my face when I use.



The serum come in a glass container and there are 50ml of serum inside

Packaging
Both the serum and the softener come in press bottle, which I like as its more hygiene. But I’m not very happy with the bottle that contain the softener, I’m not sure if it apply to all but my bottle leaks. It’s really a waste of product.

The big bottle of softener

Results

I don’t see my pore shrinking.. LOL.. but its only 1 week, I can’t really tell the diff I guess. I will use them a bit longer and will update the review.. LOL..

I really like the softener; I think it help to clean my face better. I can see a lot of dirty stuffs on my cotton pad after I wiping my face with the softener. More dirty stuffs come out after toner. Seem like only toner after cleansing is not enough.. LOL.. I used to use Ettusia softener and found that my skin improved, less breakouts etc.. But I got lazy and stop using it.. LOL.. I’m staring my softener routine again..

Happy time cleansing foam ( peach and aloe vera: $7.90 each)



I also bought some nail polish.. LOL... they are all $2.50 each (petit darling collection) except for the dark colour one which is $5.90


What my sis bought....


She bought the whitening serum, lip sticks and balm and a guy bb cream set.



She bought this bb cream set for herself, she tried all the bb cream in the stall and felt that this is the best so she decided to get it despite the fact that its for guy.



The whitening serum set come with 12 pc of powder what is supposed to enhance the whitening effect of the serum (the tube in the box)


Happy tea tree cleansing foam (review)

I bought the happy tea tree cleansing foam on sunday, have being using it since then.. When i hold the tub, i think its quite heavy; it supposed to have 150g of content inside.


I like the scent of the cleansing foam; it has a light peachy smell. When I squeeze out the content, it has this creamy look. The cleanser clean quite well, leaves behind a cleansed feeling. I don’t think its suitable for people with dry skin,.






Etude House nail polish

i bought a few nail polish during the Etude house sale yesterday..

I use the green one and the yellow for my nail today ;)



Only 2 coats of polished was applied for each colour.. i simply love this combination.. remind me of smarties chocolate.. LOL...
