[ETUDE HOUSE] Like 20 (twenty) *EYE CONCENTRATE*

Since I'm already 30 I start using some anti-aging products to prevent my skin of getting wrinkles. For my face I still use products for oily and trouble skin only but for my eye area I get creams that help to firm the skin and reduce fine lines. From [ETUDE HOUSE] I got the COLLAGEN moistfull firming eye cream a while ago which I actually liked and now I have their Like 20 (twenty) EYE CONCENTRATE.
The Like 20 (twenty) line consits of the following products:
- ESSENTIAL EMULSION

- EYE CONCENTRATE
- BOOSTER ESSENCE
- FINISHING CREAM
- ALL-DAY CREAM PACT
- SKIN CARE KIT

Description: This is an eye cream that provides moisture to the dry eye area with its smooth application for a firm eye area free of wrinkles.
All products of the Like 20 (twenty) line are kept in white and violet/lilac colors what I find really nice. The EYE CONCENTRATE is inside a white container with a pump on top and a clear lid. It contains 30 ml!
Beside Ceramide and Murumuru Oil this eye cream also contains Water, Glycerin, Castor Seed Oil, Shea Butter, Beeswax, Carnauba Wax, Cocoa Extract, Fragrance, Alcohol and more.
The yellowish-white eye concentrate has a light creamy consistency and a soft scent.
I use one pump for each eye and apply it twice a day. It's a very smooth cream and gets absorbed quite fast. My eye area feels moisturized but I can't tell if it really helps in firming the skin. I don't think that a product works that fast - maybe when I constantly use it over a long time. Still, I hope that it will at least prevent my skin of getting wrinkles or fine lines caused by dry skin.
How to use: Dispense certain amount onto eye area before applying cream, gently dabbing and absorbing with fingertips. Can be applied onto other areas that need care (mouth area etc.).

Price: About 11,- €/US$15

[ETUDE HOUSE] Golden Ratio Contour Maker *Pink*

If you wonder why I sometimes write two reviews on one day, it's mainly because I start to move in a new apartment in May and I will be very busy. Because of that, I'm not sure if or when I will write reviews again. So, I try to write as many reviews as possible before May!

The second review for today is about the Golden Ratio Contour Maker in #02 Pink (Venus Angle). This 3in1 product from [ETUDE HOUSE] contains Highlighter, Blusher and Shading. You can get it in #01 Gold (Gold Angle) as well.
The other products available in the Golden Ratio line are:
- Face Glam (Gold, Pink)
- Tear Drop Powder (Gold, Brown, Khaki, Grey)

Description: Golden Ration aesthetic makeup line.
This multi-shade pressed powder supplies highlighting, shading and blusher tones.
The Contour Maker comes in a square container which is brown with golden shimmer.
It might be that the container came in another packaging as well but I can't remember and if so, I threw it away.
The square container includes a mirror, a small brush and contains 10g.
#02 Pink (Venus Angle) consists of the following color shades:
A) Highlighter: A very bright pink shade, could be a skin beige as well.
B) Blusher: A peachy pink!
C) Shading: A light-medium brown shade.
All three (3) colors contain gold shimmer!  
The product also says that it contains a Sebum Control Powder.
So, how to use this multi-shade pressed powder??
Apply A) Highlighter with the brush to your T-Zone and under your eyes.
Then B) Blusher to your cheek bones. It's better when you use a bigger brush for that.
C) Shading you can apply along hairline and jaw line. I use it at my nose area to let these appear 'thinner', too.
I have to say that I don't use this Contour Maker a lot. I tried it out when I took some pics of myself but I didn't liked it much at that time. Don't get me wrong, it's a nice product but I used too much (especially of the highlighter) and my face looked too shimmering.
If I wear it outside I would use much less and then it sure looks more nice!

Price: around 14,- €/ US$18 
Bought at: eBay (rubyruby76)   

What I love:  
There is nothing I really love yet!

What I don’t like: 
It contains too much golden shimmer! I look weird when I use too much of it (especially of the highlighter).

Will I buy this again? No, I won't! I would get another highlighter, though.
