[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] Color Lips-fit *See-Thru Fit Beige & Petti/Top Coat*

When I wear lipsticks I often have the problem that it doesn't last long. After drinking, eating or "licking" my lips too much the color is gone! Then I tried [ETUDE HOUSE]'s Fresh Cherry Tint a while ago and this liquid lip color held longer on my lips than a normal lipstick. Therefore, I had to get one of the new Color Lips-fit lip tints as well. My color choice was #BE101 See-Thru Fit Beige and #WH901 Petti & Top Coat.
There are six (6) more colors available!



Description (Lip Tint): This is a revolutionary liquid type Lipstick that moistly glides onto lips with its vivid color and finishes off with a weightless powdery texture.

Description (Top Coat): This is a revolutionary 2-in-1 Lip Gloss with a non-sticky texture, providing a priming effect before lipstick and moist coating effect after lipstick to express vivid and shiny lips.


Each product comes inside a pink-colored paper box with the Korean and English description on it. Inside the box is the bottle which is made of glass, contains 10g and has a white twist-off lid. The applicator is attached on the lid.
The applicator is very soft and flexible. The lip tints come with a sweet scent - kinda fruity or bubblegum-like.
How to apply them?
#WH901 Petti & Top Coat:
As Undercoat: Apply onto clean lips. Apply desired color of Color Lips-fit. More natural gradation lips possible when applied onto center of lower lips.
As Topcoat: After Color Lips-fit is completely dry (approx. 60 seconds after application) apply a layer for light and clear gloss.
#BE101 See-Thru Fit Beige:
Shake well before use then apply smoothly with tip. Lightly dap onto center of lips for gradation. Delicately apply for full cover.
For moist gloss apply a layer of WH901 after color!
The Color Lips-fit products are easy to apply. My lips feel moisturized and the color is bold enough. The colored lip tints leave a powdery, matte finish what I like. If I want it more glossy I apply the clear top/undercoat over it which is non-sticky at all.
What I don't like too much is the color of the beige itself. I love beige lip colors but this one is just not the kind of beige I expected. Its color goes more into orange with a hint of pink and well...beige. That's why I apply it only on the center of my lips and spread it.
I like the Color Lips-fit tints and might get one of the pink shades (PK001 or PK003), too. 
But maybe I will even try those Rosy tint Lips instead. 

Price: About 8,- €/ US$10 
Bought at: eBay (f2plus1) 

What I love: 
The moisturizing feeling and matte finish. The fruity scent is also nice! 

What I don’t like: 
The beige shade could be more (light) beige. 

Will I buy this again? Only in another shade or maybe even the Rosy tint Lips instead!

[ETUDE HOUSE] Dear My *Blooming Lips-talk, Crystal Gloss & Milky Gloss*

[ETUDE HOUSE] newest make-up line is called Dear My and contains lipsticks, lip glosses, nail polishes, blusher and compact powders. I just got two lip glosses and a lipstick for now which I will all review now.
This product line is endorsed by SHINee and Sandara Park (2NE1)!!

You can watch the Trailer for the lipsticks here:

It was hard to decide for a color since I can't do swatches when order online but I got the following ones:

Dear My Blooming Lips-talk *OR204 Shy Coral*:
Description: Smooth textured lipstick supplies vivid color and moist shine.

The Blooming Lips-talk lipstick comes in a very cute pinkish packaging with hearts and a crown print on it. The lipstick itself is housed in a pearl pink twist-up container and contains 3,4g.
I got OR204 Shy Coral coz I usually like coral-colored lipsticks and this one shall be one of the 'Hot Colors' as well. You can choose from 24 lovely colors what makes it hard to decide. They got coral, orange, pink, red and brown shades!
Some informations about the lipstick:
Smooth texture and outstanding color of creamy gel texture makes clean and vivid lips.
Relaxed Fitting Complex & Smooth Powder System makes smooth lips without crack.
Moist Liquid Paste and Hydro-Moist Complex makes moist and kissable lips.
The lipstick itself got a heart print, too!
The Blooming Lips-talk lipstick is creamy and gives my lips a slightly glossy finish. The color is buildable in layers! I prefer to use just 1-2 layers, otherwise the color is too bold for my taste. The color is rather opaque, too!
 1-2 layers (pic above) and 3-5 layers (pic below):
How to use: Twist to dispense makeup and apply evenly to lips.

Price: around 10,- €/ US$13
Bought at: eBay (cosmetic-love) 
 

What I love:  
The design, the rest is nothing special for me.  

What I don’t like: 
The color is too bold for my taste. Prefer a more sheer lipstick.

Will I buy this again? No, I won't! Would try out other lipsticks instead.


Dear My Crystal Gloss *COR201 Dazzling Coral*:
Description: Lip Gloss with shimmering & sparkling glitter!

Like most of the glosses from [ETUDE HOUSE] this one comes in a translucent bottle and contains 4.5g. Attached to the twist-off lid is the sponge applicator which is not really flexible.
COR201 Dazzling Coral is a nice color as well but looks more 'orange' as the the coral lipstick.
It contains some nice shimmer, has a fruity scent and doesn't feel sticky.
The Crystal Gloss is available in 8 different colors.
How to use: Apply appropriate amount to your lips with tip. 


Dear My Milky Gloss *MBE101 Chocolate Latte*:
Description: Lip Gloss with Mild & Lovely colors!

The glosses are also available as Milky Gloss without any glitter/ shimmer and 8 colors.
It comes in the same bottle as the Crystal Gloss with 4.5g as well.
I purchased the milky gloss in MBE101 Chocolate Latte coz I love chocolate and the color looked so nice. It's a milky beige with a hint of pink in it. Somehow it fits my natural lip color quite well. Perfect for the nude-look!!
The gloss is rather sheer but I like that! 

Price (each Gloss): around 7,- €/ US$9.50
Bought at: eBay (zinopark)   

What I love:  
The colors are rather sheer what I like! 

What I don’t like: 
Nothing yet except for the scent. Reminds me of the Peach All-in-one Peeling Gel.

Will I buy this again? Maybe another color!
