Etude House Hot Style Salon Cream Hair Coloring #1 Choco Mocha Brown Review

Hi Dolls~ I'm back with Hair Coloring review. The DIY one~ Yeay! I love to dye my hair regularly, around 3-4 times a year. I prefer dye my hair at home since it's way much cheaper, easy and less damaging effect than dye my hair at salon. I've been using the Etude House Bubble Hair Coloring several times, I've tried all colors and I love the finish, but sadly my hair will look orange-ish after 2 months using that. Not only bubble hair, Etude House released the cream coloring type, but it only has 1 shade i guess, Blackish Brown. I have reviewed that product, you can read my review HERE. In the beginning of 2016, Etude House released cream type hair coloring with new formula and more shades Yeay! So, without any further do, let's get start ;).

As you can see, my hair become darker. It's dark brown with slight red hint. 

How about the ammonia smell?

Etude House Sunprise Mild Airy Finish SPF 50+ PA+++ Suncreen Review

Hola Ladies~ welcome back to my blog! 

Split by equator, Indonesia has almost entirely tropical climate. There is a dry season (June to September), and a rainy season (December to March). Honestly, even there are two seasons here, but I feel like everyday is SUMMER XD. If you think that "I'm naturally tan, I don't need a sun protection, right?" NAH YOU TOTALLY WRONG GIRLS. Naturally darker skin simply offers a higher baseline protection factor, not an unstoppable UV barrier. You still need a good sunscreen to protect your skin from harmful UV rays that causing skin aging, wrinkling, even skin cancer OMG. But, finding the right sunscreen for sensitive skin like mine is so hard, i mean there're a lot of sunscreen products here but they give me white cast, greasy finish, hardly spread on skin, causing breakouts, and make my oily skin become more more more oily :(. 

Finally, after a long long journey in finding the "light weight sunscreen for sensitive skin", I found this product. It's Etude House Sunprise Mild Airy Finish SPF 50+ PA+++. 

"cute packaging" is Etude House middle name XD

SCENT & TEXTURE

Scent: This sunscreen smells like tea tree, so refreshing~ but i don't think it's distrubing smell. It will vanish after you spread the lotion on your entire face. 

Texture: White watery lotion

Spread Spread Spread~

Completely absorbed

I usually put this 5 mins before apply primer everyday. The finish is amazing! It has very very light weight texture and surprisingly it's the first suncreen that can control sebum very well in my whole life. I use this in the morning underneath my bb cream, and when i checked my face on mirror in the afternoon, my makeup was still there!!! The T zone was still oily but only a little . This product really reducing my sebum *crying rainbows*. OMG bless the founder of Etude House. So i don't mind to use this as sunscreen and primer lol. It also absorb easily on my face without greasy + sticky feeling and as you can see, this product won't make your face weirdly white, i mean the white cast like other sunscreen products. Another good news is it's great for everyday use, even for sensitive skin like me. I know this product still contains alcohols but surprisingly it doesn't cause breakouts on my skin, don't forget to do double cleansing everyday. FYI my skin type is oily + acne prone.  

OVERALL THOUGHTS

(+) Light weight finish

(+) Control sebum very well

(+) High SPF

(+) Cute packaging

(+) Not causing breakouts

(+) Sensitive skin + oily skin friendly

Etude House Oh M'eye Line Brown Review

Hi Ladies! I'm back with another review :> Today i want to give my favorite eyeliner to be reviewed. So i was looking for a cheap and long lasting eyeliner cause my previous eyeliner which is Kiss Me Heroine Make Smooth Eyeliner BK 01 is running out and it's kinda hard to find this brand in Indonesia, also the price so expensive for me lol i got KissMe Heroine eyeliner SGD 22. So I don't think will repurchase that eyeliner again. Then I found Etude House Oh M'eye Line Eyeliner. I bought this in brown color. At first i had low expectation about this product because what can you expect from $4 liquid eyeliner? BUT ETUDE HOUSE PROVED ME WRONG. Here is the product~

No complain when it comes to Etude House packaging

PRODUCT INFORMATION

Product Name: OH M'EYE LINE

Volume: 5 ml

Price: $4-$6

(IDR 50.000-75.000)

Type: Liquid eyeliner

Color: 1. Black, 2. Gray, 3. Brown, 4. Purple, 5. Navy

The Label

When you look at korean cosmetics label, you will see production date instead of expired date.

INGREDIENTS

WATER, ACRYLATES COPOLYMER, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL, ACETYL TRIBUTYL CITRATE, ALCOHOL,PENTYLENE GLYCOL, PHENOXYETHANOL, POLYSORBATE 20, BENTONITE, SODIUM MAGNESIUM SILICATE, XANTHAN GUM, ISOBUTYLENE/SODIUM MALEATE COPOLYMER, SODIUM METAPHOSPHATE, DISODIUM EDTA +/-IRON OXIDES(CI 77499, CI 77492, CI 77491), ULTRAMARINES(CI 77007), FERRIC FERROCYANIDE(CI 77510), FERRIC AMMONIUM FERROCYANIDE(CI 77510), TITANIUM DIOXIDE(CI 77891), MICA

No paraben detected yeay!

As someone who has problems with applying liquid eyeliner without shaking, make uneven lines, and mess, i love this eyeliner! The tip is very thin! you can make thin lines perfectly. The brush tip is soft compared to all liquid eyeliners I've tried before. It's very easy to work with, even you're a newbie. 

TEXTURE

Swatch!

When you swatch it, at first it's more like shiny finish, but it will turn completely matte after a while.

The color pigmentation is good, but honestly it's not the brown that I want. It's really dark, almost like black, but for $4 liquid eyeliner, this product is really worth the hype!

STAYING POWER

how about the staying power?

Let's do waterproof test!!

WATERPROOF

BUT

if you rub it, it will completely GONE yeah. It clumps up to little flecks

the good thing is this product is easy to remove *yeay*

Make sure to use good eye primer before.

OVERALL THOUGHTS

(+) Waterproof  as long as u don't rub it

(+) Smudgeproof on my oily lid 

*don't forget to use eye primer*

(+) Great staying power

(+) C H E A P

(+) Easy to find here (both counter & online shop)

(+) Paraben free

(+) Bold Color

(+) Easy to remove

(-) It's not brown that i want, too dark for my liking

(-) Not rub-proof

Repurchase? YAS. I want to try the black one

Etude House Every Month Cleansing Foam #6 Tea Tree & #7 Aloe Vera Review

Hi ladies, finally first post in May 2015 (*o*). I'm back after a long long long hiatus T.T. Sorry, haven't had a chance to make a review since i was busy and lazy lol. So yeah, today i wanna share about Etude House Every Month Cleansing Foam #6 Tea Tree & #7 Aloe Vera. I have had Himalaya Herbals Purifying Foaming Neem Face Wash ($2) before but last week i found that Etude House sell these products in very very affordable price compared to another korean brand facial wash. I got them around  ₩3,500/$4 per tube.

Hai ladies~ Akhirnya pos pertama di Bulan Mei 2015~. Dari kemarin gak sempet buat review karena sibuk di kampus dan males sih haha. Oke langsung aja ya. Hari ini aku mau bahas tentang  Etude House Every Month Cleansing Foam #6 Tea Tree & #7 Aloe Vera. Facial wash aku sebelumnya itu Himalaya Herbals Purifying Foaming Neem Face Wash ($2) tapi minggu lalu Etude House jual produk ini dengan harga yang sangat murah dibandingkan dengan facial wash merek korea yang lain, hanya ₩3,500/$4 per tube. Murah banget kan haha.

Source : Etude SG

Etude House Every Month Cleansing Foam came in 12 different types of facial foam which are numbered accordingly to the months in a year. It's infused with botanical ingredients such as aloe vera, avocado, tea tree, green tea, pomegranate, lemon, bluberry, rice, and the strange one... garlic. You can freely choose your favorite facial wash based on your skin type. Let me help you then~

Etude House Every Month Cleansing Foam ada 12 macam yang diberi nomor sesuai dengan bulan-bulan dalam satu tahun, jadi line facial wash yang ini ada 12 tipe, yang mana tiap tipe terkandung komposisi yang beda-beda kaya lidah buaya, alpukat, tea tree, teh hijau, pome, lemon, blueberry, padi, dan yang paling aneh ada bawang putih haha. Kamu bisa pilih sesuai dengan tipe kulit kamu, Biar lebih jelas lihat di bawah ini yaa.

1 Deep Moisturizing (Avocado & Butter)
2 Firming (Pomegranate & Berry)
3 Tone Clarifying (Apple & Tomato)
4 Purifying (Lemon & Garlic)
5 Fresh & Clean (Green Tea)
6 Trouble Care (Tea Tree)
7 Soothing Relief (Aloe Vera)
8 Revitalizing (Blueberry)
9 Richly Moist (Rice)
10 Clean Moisture (Green Vegetables) 
11 Smooth & Nourishing (Walnut)
12 Soft & Moist (Red Wine)

Since my skin type is oily with acne, pimples, and breakouts, i chose #6 Tea Tree and #7 Aloe Vera.

Karena tipe kulit aku oily, berjerawat dan banyak breakouts sana sini jadi aku pilih  #6 Tea Tree and #7 Aloe Vera.

PACKAGING

make sure it's sealed, when you received the product

This product comes in a 100 ml tube with flip top cap which is great for travelling junkie. I think it will last for 2-3 months (depends on the frequency usage), so you don't have to buy facial foam every month. Etude House packaging never fails me, it's so cute T.T i can't resist. Don't forget to use this product within 6 month once it opened.

Produk ini berbentuk tube dengan isi 100ml, dan jangan khawatir karena tutupnya pakai flip top, jadi praktis dan gak takut tumpah sana sini dan juga travel friendly. Produk ini habis sekitar 2-3 bulan tergantung banyak pemakaiannya yah, jadi nggak usah bingung beli facial wash tiap bulan. Jangan lupa kalau expirednya 6 bulan setelah produk dibuka.

TEXTURE, SCENT, FORMULA

The Aloe Vera has gel texture, while the Tea Tree one has fresh cream texture. They all smell amazing. You only need only pea sized amount of product to wash your entire face and neck. Surprisingly the foam is easy to rinse and leaves my skin clean and fresh. It doesn't irritate my sensitive skin at all whoa. I really recommend these facial foams to people who has oily-combination skin type.

Tekstur dari varian lidah buaya adalah gel sedangkan varian tea tree berbentuk krim. Keduanya mempunyai wangi yang enak. Kamu hanya perlu sedikit aja untuk cuci seluruh area muka dan leher. Busa dari facial foam ini gampang sekali dibersihkan dengan air, dan hasilnya...bersih dan fresh! Nggak ada rasa licin licin gitu. Aku rekomendasikan produk ini buat orang yang punya tipe kulit berminyak-kombinasi.

The good thing is..........THERE'S NO PARABEN

Produk ini tidak mengandung paraben YAY

PERFORMANCE

I tested this product to check how great this product to remove waterproof makeup. So i swatched all my waterproof makeup product in my hand. As you guys can see i swatched bb cushion, glitter eyeliner, bb cream, eyeliner etc which are not easy to remove with ordinary facial foam only. 

Aku coba tes kemampuan produk ini untuk membersihkan makeup. Jadi aku oleskan semua makeup waterproof ke tangan. Bisa kalian lihat ya itu aku oles bb cushion, glitter eyeliner, bb cream, eyeliner yang notabene susah dihilangkan kalo pakai facial foam biasa. 

TARAAAAAA but a lil bit of my waterproof mascara was still there. But it's okay.

OVERALL THOUGHTS

(+) No breakouts

(+) Can remove makeup (but still you need double cleansing to avoid acne)

(+) Cheap

(+) Available locally

(+) Make my face less oily (like, really!)

(+) Travel Friendly

(+) A little goes a long way

(+) Amazing scent

(+) Paraben, SLS/SLES free

(+) Comes in 12 different types

(-) These variants are not for people with dry skin type


Repurchase? YAS YAS. Gonna try the other variants

Ratings? *****/5

Etude House Hot Style Cream Hair Coloring Blackish Brown Review

Hi everyone~ welcome back to my blog \(*o*)/ Today, i made a new review for Etude House Hot Style Cream Hair Coloring in Blackish Brown shade. This product  comes in 1 shade only. I know, this product is less famous than the bubble hair color, which has wider color range. This product claims that it's really great for gray coverage. Wow. I have tried the bubble hair 4 times (dark brown, natural brown, red wine, and sweet orange) before so i decided to try this because i'm really really curious about DIY hair coloring using cream hair color. So let's start~ 

Hai semua, selamat datang di blogku  \(*o*)/. Hari ini aku sudah buat review baru yaitu Etude House Hot Style Cream Hair Coloring warna Blackish Brown. Produk ini hanya diproduksi 1 warna saja, yaitu blackish brown. Sayangnya, dibanding bubble hair color yang punya banyak pilihan warna, produk ini kurang terkenal. Katanya juga produk ini bags buat menutup uban? Wow. Aku udah pernah coba bubble hair color 4 kali sebelumnya (dark brown, natural brown, red wine, and sweet orange), jadi karena aku penasaran banget gimana semir rambut di rumah pakai pewarna rambut berbentuk krim, makanya aku pilih yang versi krim. Yuk kita mulai aja~

The Package

Instruction in english

Top of the box

Instruction in hangul

What will you get?

From etude website

Hand Gloves, Cape, Manual Instruction in Hangul, 

Colorant 1, Oxidizing 2, Big Brush, Small Brush, Silky Perfumed Treatment

What it claims?

Quick application (only 10 minutes)

Drip free

Can cover grays

Ammonia free

Hanya perlu 10 menit pemakaian

Tidak beleber kemana-mana (karena bentuknya krim)

Bisa menutup uban

Bebas amonia

How to use?

First, wear the cape and gloves, better to wear black shirt to avoid unwanted stains.

Second, Unscrew cap from Colorant 1 and squeeze a line into big brush, between it's plastic bristles.

Third, Unscrew cap from Oxidizing 2 and squeeze a line into big brush, between it's plastic bristles.

The amount of Colorant 1 and Oxidizing 2 should be 1:1 ratio. 

So that Colorant 1 and Oxidizing 2 naturally mixes together.

Fourth, use the big brush to apply the color to your hair, use small brush for more precision.

If the color gets on your skin, wipe it with damp towel.

Fifth, after you completely apply the color, leave it for 10-15 minutes.

Sixth, rinse your hair using warm water, until the water runs clear.

Seventh, apply Silky Perfumed Treatment for 5 minutes, and rinse.

1. Pakai plastik pelindung dan sarung tangan, lebih baik pakai kaos hitam ya, biar gak repot bersihkan kalo kena catnya.

2. Buka tutup tube Colorant 1, pencet untuk mengeluarkan isinya hingga membentuk 1 garis lurus ke big brush

3. Buka tutup tube Oxidizing 2, pencet untuk mengeluarkan isinya hingga membentuk 1 garis lurus ke big brush. Perbandingan Colorant 1 and Oxidizing 2 harus 1:1 ya girls, 

sehingga Colorant 1 and Oxidizing 2 akan otomatis tercampur saat kamu aplikasikan ke rambut

4. Aplikasikan semir ke rambut menggunakan big brush tadi, untuk bagian-bagian yang susah dijangkau, pakai small brush, kalau semirnya ada yang nggak sengaja kena di muka, segera lap dengan handuk basah, biar nggak berbekas di kulit

5. Setelah selesai, diamkan selama 10-15 menit

6. Bilas dengan air hangat, sampai bersih.

7. Aplikasikan Silky Perfumed Treatment selama 5 menit, dan bilas.

How's the result?

Before

So weird + uneven color -___- 

After

TOTALLY JET BLACK HAIR

ME LIKEEEEYYY <3

OVERALL THOUGHTS

(+) Cheap, around IDR 90.000

(+) Efficient bcs i only spent around a half tube, 

you can use it again and again when you need it bcs it's tube type.

(+) Easy, but the easiest is still bubble hair.

(+) Amonia free.

(+) No strong smell

(+) No itchy feeling on my scalp even i left it around 30 mins lol

(+) What you see in the top of the box is what you get, yes it's black <3

(-) Only comes in 1 shade

(-) A bit drying, but it will turn nice after you use Silky Perfumed Treatment 

Rating: ****/5

Repurchase? Nope, I'd like to try other brands, like liese prettia, schwarzkopf

(+) Murah, aku beli sekitar 90.000 rupiah

(+) Hemat, aku cuman pakai setengah tube, kamu bisa pakai lagi besok-besok.

(+) Gampang pakainya, tapi tetep lebih gampang si bubble hair

(+) Bebas amonia

(+) Baunya tidak menyengat

(+) Nggak perih di kulit kepala ku, padahal aku diamkan 30 menit lol

(+) Warna sesuai dengan gambar yang ada di tutup box, yep hitam <3

(-) Cuman ada 1 warna

(-) Agak kering, tapi setelah pakai Silky Perfumed Treatment udah nggak kering lagi

Rating: ****/5

Repurchase? Nggak, aku mau coba merek lain seperti liese prettia, schwarzkopf
