Bangkok Haul: Etude House

Hiya readers! :)
I'm back with a new part of my Bangkok Haul, I'm going to show you the items I purchased from Etude House. I'm a very very very HUGE fan of Etude House, I've been spending alot on Etude House items this year, it's high time for me to stop shopping there :P But every time I spot that super adorable, full-of-pink Etude House store, I just can't resist the cuteness, I end up returning home with a pink plastic bag full of Etude House products :P



I bought two of their Touch Touch Shadow Liners, a Model Face Color (blush/highlighter) and a couple of masks for 120 baht each, it was a total fail for the masks because I found that I could buy 10 masks here in my country for the price I bought for 2 =="
These cute Touch Touch Shadow Liners were on sale, so I took the opportunity to try them out. You can use them as cream eye shadows or as gel liner. I use the brown one (on the left) which is called Mocha Touch as a gel liner and for the creamy color (on the right) called Vanilla Touch, I use as a cream eye shadow. I'm pretty happy with the quality and the color :)

The second item I got was a Model Face Color which can be used as a highlighter or blush, this was on sale too. It's actually lavender but looking at it, it looks more toward the light pink tones. I have yet to try this out.
A swatch of the Model Face Color, its pretty bright and it looks matte. It doesn't have any hint of shimmer or anything.

I was actually surprised with myself that I didn't get as much products than I usually do but I think the reason is because there weren't much items on sale than in my country. I was being adventurous, hoping to try out some of the products I've never tried before but most of the products were pretty pricey for me to try out.

Let me know if you've tried out any Etude House products and if you have, which is your favorite and which product would you highly recommend? :)

BEAUTY Show and Tell :D ETUDE HOUSE HAUL

Hey guys! :D

My second blogpost for 2012 is here :D I would like to show you the stuff I got from Etude House! =) This is like, part 2 of my haul post :P Thank you for your sweet comments and advice from my last post, I enjoyed reading what you guys had to say, please continue to leave comments for me because they make my day! :D

After this haul post, I'll be starting a Blog Challenge! I'm so excited because I've never done a blog challenge before so this obviously, will be my first time :) So if you want to try a blog challenge do, you can do it along with me! Link me to your blog challenges if you have done one or will be doing one. The challenges that I will be doing are taken from Tumblr, just to let you know.

But let's get back to the HAUL :D
My Etude House bag with all my new goodies! ^^ I like their pretty pink bags :) eventhough they're normal plastic ones :P
Item number #1! This is a really good buy, these are Nail Polish remover. They were on some promotion package thingy, they were really cheap! So if you want good quality nail polish remover, head down to Etude House, and quick! I don't know when their sales end. By the way, most of the items were on discount because Etude House was having some year end sale, so yipee! ^^
I'm not very sure about the prices but if I'm not mistaken, the original price is RM6.90 for one bottle. I bought both for RM8.
I love these nail polish removers because the quality is so far better than most removers that I've tried and they smell really good ^^ They have different scents, the pink bottle is Sweet Floral and the blue bottle is Fresh Floral. The pink one kinda smells like peaches :P


Item #2
I love these eyeshadows! I have very few matte eye-shadows so I really wanted to buy a few to try out. Etude House was having a sale for most single eye-shadows so I came on the right time :D

Their names are...(From left to right): Cafe Latte, Cocoa, some pale creamy shade :P I couldn't read the name because a code was stamped right in front of the name. I'm glad I can read hangul now, because all the names are written in hangul a.k.a Korean Alphabet! :)


Okay, so I've never done swatches before and so I apologize for the bad quality of my swatches :P my very first swatches! and not good ><

Close up!
Left to right: Cocoa, Cafe Latte and the creamy color :P
Cafe Latte is almost identical to my skin color :O

Item number #3! Just a regular angled eye-liner brush, I was in need of one!

Next item... Green Tea Nose Pack and Ginko Lip Patch. I have been really annoyed by my blackheads on my nose lately so I've been putting nose patches quite often but none really worked. I haven't used these nose and lip patches yet, but I really hope it works because these are quite pricey ><

The Green Tea Nose pack cost me...( I just realized I bought it for a cheaper price because it was on sale :P) RM3.96. Original price is RM6.90 for just one patch! :O
The Ginko Lip Patch cost me...RM 7.73 which is pricey even after less but I can't really judge yet because I haven't tried it out, so I'm hoping it works really well.

The last item and my most favorite item from this haul is... The Etude House Line Nuance Duo in Baby Peach and Mocha! I love this~ This is like a pen with an eyeshadow on one end and a brown Mocha liner on the other end.

I really like this peach color, it's almost similar to my Etude House Peach Beam Blush's shade.

When opened, there's the cool (it's just a normal one :P I like to use my adjectives) applicator.
UP-CLOSE :) it's a really pretty shimmery peachy color which I love!
I just realized that I did not take a picture of the other end which is the Mocha liner :P So I decided to take some pictures from GOOGLE :D

Anyway, if I ever visit Etude House again (which I hope will be very soon!) I will definitely get another one of these babies.

Don't go away yet! I still have another item but this isn't from Etude House. This is from Beauty Credit which is another Korean cosmetic store, I think it's Korean because Actress Goo Hye Sun is on almost every cover of their products :P
I got this Blackhead Clear Pore Cleansing Strips. So as you can see, I'm very determined to get rid of my annoying blackheads >.<"
The sales lady says that this one is the best but I don't know, I don't think that it's the BEST. It just got out a little more blackheads than the other ones that I've used.

Okay! You have officially reached then end of my Beauty Show&Tell or HAUL~ I hope you enjoyed this post, if you have a haul post; do leave a LINK of it in the comment box below :D
Have a wonderful wonderful week~
I will be starting my blog challenge...soon! ANY QUESTIONS? Feel free to ask, just leave a comment.
xoxo

UPDATED: The name of the creamy matte eyeshadow is Vanilla :) Managed to figure the name out :D

Back To Penang Island Again!

Hiya peeps!:)


Here's an update I meant to do days ago but sadly I wasn't feeling well. I had a slight discomfort in my stomach that came and go , almost admitted to the hospital but thankfully my awesome doctor said I could rest at home :)



It was tiring last weekend! Went to my school's Sports Day and got involved with helping out with the food carnival. I was in charge of selling corns :P Well, it was a good thing everybody somehow craved for corns, I sold out everything in a few hours! Which was really great. The next day, my family and I boarded a plane to, once again, Penang!


For lunch we went back to Hisago and Straits Quay, it's the japanese restaurant I mentioned in my last post! There was a Peanuts Cafe that I was dying to check out the last time but couldn't.



This time, I did! The cafe was awesome, there were Snoopy characters everywhere. Couldn't get a good shot as I forgot to bring my camera. So I used my iTouch's camera. Here's a few shots, I really really need to improve with my photography skills :P



I ordered Green Apple Mint Fizz which sorta tasted odd 'cos the mint overpowered the Apple taste a little too much. The mint was really strong and sweet. Not much fizz too, I was kinda dissapointed with the drinks. But presentation sense, it looked cool, the color was superb :) My dad ordered Dragonfruit juice, he was going on and on about how it's healthier than my drink (of course :P) I loved the color but didn't taste it :P



Chillin' out with Lucy and Linus :P That's my sister's back covering the other characters :P



One thing that I loved about the cafe was that they had pictures of Snoopy and the other Peanut Characters all lined up on the ceiling, it was nice to look up and see all of the art. Fancy, i like it :)


BELOW: My really bad snapshots of the cafe. Eeeks! Forgive me, I'll do better next time :P










Now, for my ETUDE HOUSE HAUL




This trip was sorta boring at first but it got more exciting when ETUDE HOUSE popped out. I really wished I could buy the whole store but, ka-ching ka-ching is always a problem. They were all on sale so HOORAY for me ;) Here's what I bought:




There were a good variety of nail-polishes but I wanted to try something different this time, so I went with this color, sorta like a seafoam green? :P pretty blurr today.


Next, I bought... Follow Me TINT SPF13 Vary Pink, the 2NE1 Edition :) it's awesome. This cool, mint glossy tint stick goes on clear but changes from pale pink to intense fuschia and every shade in between, according to your passion. Sounds cool? It is cool :) I love it!



Peach Beam Blusher! It's an oven baked blusher that creates porcelain clear complexion with crystal pearl shine. It has a little glittery shade which I love :)







Lastly, my brand new Miss Tangerine Follow Me Tint! I like the orange shade that it gives, so I definitely had to have it. I was thinking of going with just one (the 2NE1 edition) but the Miss Tangerine one was calling out to me :P I was so tempted and I love the color, so oh wells, sold! This cool, glossy stick goes on clear but changes shades according to your passion!






That's pretty much what really happened this week! I'm so satisfied with my Etude house products, I just want more! I'll be back with more hauls, (I dearly hope so) Gonna go join more giveaways now! WEEEEEE :)




Countdown to my B'day:


6 more days... to 27th May!




Ciao!~
