Korean Beauty Haul: Innisfree, Etude House

8:18 PM

 

Haul time!

Let's get right into it.

First up is the Innisfree Skinny Waterproof Microcara. This little guy has a teeny tiny brush. I chose the waterproof formula since that's usually the only way to hold a curl on my lashes. The idea is that the tiny wand will make it a breeze to get each and every single lash from the base. 


Next up is the Innisfree No-Sebum Mineral Powder. The product comes with 5g of product and is a loose mineral powder designed to control oil and set your makeup. The mint int the product is supposed to give a slightly cooling sensation which makes this ideal for summer use. 


Next is Etude House Dreaming of Swan Eye & Cheek color. I've been eyeing this line of blushes for a long time, ever since it came out. Mostly due to the packaging, as a blush lover and collector.




The mineral powder is a white powder which should be translucent if applied not to heavy handed on the skin. 


This shade is in a slightly churlish colour. There were 5 or 6 colours in total from which to choose. 


The packaging is a tin can with a screw-off top and a puff inside.


To be honest I was expecting a more choral than pink colour, but it's stunning nonetheless. Each shade in this range has a different embossed image in the actual powder. 


The product comes with 9g of product which is quite a lot of product, considering mac blushes are usually 5-6g.
I was a bit surprised at the price since a quick search on Ebay showed that it was cheaper to get it shipped to Canada from Korea. This retailed in China ( from the actual Etude House boutique) for about $25CAD while on Ebay it would've been about $18CAD. Ouch.


Lastly I got this mask-applying brush to use with my recently purchased Nature Republic Aloe gel. This is the Etude House My Beauty Tool mask brush.



The only other mask brush I've ever tried is the one by Missha, and this one has more bristles that are also finer. The brush itself is softer, and at only 18RMB, (less than $4CAD) it's a great buy.


The folks at the insider counter were nice enough to give me some samples of their white fungus recovery cream. The nail polish was a gift with purchase. Usually retails for 30RMB or about $5CAD.
