Etude House: Silk Scarf Hair Shampoo Review

Tags: Beauty, Etude House, Hair, Hair Care, Shampoo, Korean, Review, Silk Scarf hair Shampoo, Skin Care, 

There was a time early this year that I began realizing that I am purchasing so much make-up that I don't even use (still got tons of untouched make-up stored away in my box). Likewise with skin care! So I started rationalizing my purchases. So I began buying hair care products. Given the limitation that Etude House here in my country, I was only able to get this.

Etude House's Silk Scarf Hair Shampoo!

Etude House: Silk Scarf - Hologram Hair Serum Review

Don't you just hate it when your hair is all frizzy and has this off scent when it's already noon? I had that in mind when I got Etude House's Silk Scarf Hologram Hair Serum.

Or was I just putting out reason to buy this? 

Haru's Product Haul: March - June (Etude House, Missha, Nature Republic, The Body Shop, Benefit)

I know, I know. I've been so absent lately. So long hiatus in posting here! It's not that I'm lazy. I'm so swamped with work for since April til June, with my long-awaited promotion is in jeopardy. It's a make-or-break, so I had to allocate time.

But since I'm in somewhat calm waters right now (or burned out to do anything), I've decided to finally post. When I wasn't posting, it doesn't mean I'm not trying out stuff. I did try a lot of stuff (which adds more backlog than I already have). And I hauled. A LOT. Last haul I posted was last January, which makes such a good time to show my hauls since March til June.

Haru's Product Haul February - March 5, 2013 (Missha, Nature Republic, Etude House and Skinfood)

I know I haven't been posting lately - work, personal life, and health issues. Been sick for the past few days, and such a horrible timing too!

Since I'm sick, I don't normally try new items. Most of my skin care is currently at HG items (except for facial wash, hehe!). Likewise to some make-up.

However, what I was busy to for the past few days was hauling items. Yes, hauling. And almost every week, I would get something off the store.

See what are my recent hauls!

Etude House: Follow Me Tint SPF 13 in #1 Vary Pink Review

Good sunny day to everyone! It's a good Saturday noon that there seems nothing for me to do. Which is so odd. I would like to go out and frolic somewhere - like eat in a good Japanese resto I'm eyeing at. Sadly, I'm stuck at home. So I decided to put in a review. Afterall, when was my last review?

In love, no matter how much you like the person but it seems that you aren't a good match. And what's left of you to do is to let go. And this is EXACTLY how I felt with Etude House's Follow Me Tint SPF 13 #1 Vary Pink.

Haru's Product haul: January 24, 2013 (Tony Moly and Etude House)

If there's another thing my pocket hates aside from color-changing cosmetics, sales, reach this amount and you'll get stuff for free, and limited edition, it's the "last one in stock, and we don't know when we'll restock" item. And that is the whole reason my haul last week inflated to this one. 

Aside from the fact that I'm stressed and all.

Yes, huge and bulging out. Just imagine how I manage to sneak this in. 

Product Review: Etude House: Moistfull: Facial Moisturizer

Just like my Tony Moly Prestige Gel Liner product review, this is also a late review already since I purchased this Moistfull (facial) lotion in September of 2012. So I have been using this product for about 4 months now and I guess that gives me more to say about it. I bought this since I was looking for a good facial moisturizer. I did some research online and I found this product that seemed to do the trick when it comes to keeping your face moisturized. 

Product Review: Etude House Princess 3D Mask

Princess 3D Mask with my Japanese wax doll :) (Japan and Korea right there) 

This is already a late product review. Actually I haven't been able to do much product reviews as of late. As you can see we've been pretty busy (and I mean really busy) these past few weeks, actually this weekend is the first weekend that I've had to myself for a long time. Although I did have to write 17 articles for a client- so I wouldn't really call it a 'weekend to myself'. 

So even with the deadline of 17 articles over the weekend I still wanted to insert this product review :) 

I actually have products to review already. They are all lined up and I've been using most of them already so I guess that's a good thing since I would have more to write about ;) 

Product Haul: November 26, 2012

Hello everyone! I was so happy that I was able to home early last Monday (compared to my previous days) that I went straight to the mall and bought some stuff.

See my modest haul?

Etude House: OMG Dry Shampoo Review

Hi everyone! How are you lately? I've gotten home  early morning awhile ago, around 1:30AM. And imagine how light-headed I am now - I've slept for only 3-4 hours. >.< I do hope we won't go home that late tonight/early for tomorrow. The new deadline is fast approaching (and it won't be moving, too bad) and there are still some bugs in the system. Ugh.

On the good side of things, I am very much anticipating on our vacation. It's less than a month away. Weee! I booked to another hotel yesterday over the budget one I had previously booked since I will be paying for the transfers and the comfort - there will be a 3 year old kid with me so I have to put that as a major consideration. Mental note: pay for this by the end of this week! Or later, if via credit card. :))) So excited!!!!! I've stepped into the soil of 4 countries, but this is my first time to go to this popular to both locals and foreigners beach location. Ah, white sand, warm sun and cool breeze while the rest of the northern hemisphere is freezing to bits. :D 

The product I chose to review today is something that you can use on travels, especially when you feel your hair is oily and you don't have access to places where you can take a shower. It's a dry shampoo!

When I went to Etude House few weeks/months ago, they had a sale (as usual). I was supposed to pick up just the tint, but since this was the last stock on the shelf, and I would always look at this when I was at the store, I had to get it.

You know me, out-of-the-ordinary objects grab my money attention. 

Etude House: Aloha Two Two Kiss in #1 Hawaii Ray Pink and #3 Tropical Lime Red Review

Happy Monday everyone! I finally got both of my weekends for myself and not for work. Yipee! Bad part is I got sick. It started to be a sore throat last Friday night, and now it's grown to be a cough. Great. And should the extreme overtime continue, I might have to avail a sick leave by the end of the week. On the bright side, I finally get to use my mascara from Majolica Majorca and my blush and eyeshadow from Beauty Credit. You should see them soon, still need to further use them to produce good reviews. :)



Since I want to create a cheerful atmosphere despite my current state, I shall be posting about Etude House's Aloha Two Two Kiss. Now doesn't that sound so vacation-like?


No real motive why I bought them other than they look so darn good and unique. And it's rare to find a yellow and blue gloss. These two had been sticking around my make-up bag for the longest time.

Etude House: Surprise Essence Concealer in #01 Light Beige Review

I've been out for the longest time. So sorry about that! It's been crazy lately. Actually, I'm supposed to go home as early as I can today since I have to go somewhere tonight. But due to unfortunate (and supposedly avoidable if everyone cooperated well) circumstances, I HAVE to go home late. Yes, I am bitter. Extremely bitter that no words can describe the anger and hatred that I am feeling. I'm extra cold today because of that. Grr.

Since I am waiting for the programmers to finish their stuff, I get to post. Should I be happy? I frankly don't know. Still reallyyyyy bitter.

I think I have already mentioned before how horrible my dark circles are. To a point that I look like I have a blackeye (only this one, on both) especially when my allergies are getting the worst out of me. So, I found myself going to Etude House to find a good and affordable concealer.

You shall be surprised how cheap (in a good way) this thing is.

Product Review: Etude House Mascara Remover and Silky Cotton Pad

There was a paragraph that I had read which really struck me and caught my attention. The gist of the paragraph was that-if we spend so much time on putting on make up we should also spend time to make sure that we make an effort to removing the make up. 

I've always had trouble removing the make up I apply on my eyelids and of course the eyeliner and the mascara. After washing my face I would still find traces of eyeliner or mascara- so I decided to give Etude House's Mascara Remover a try. 

I really loved this product and I swear by it! It's always a part of my ritual before going to sleep. It's very effective and very easy to use. 

This is me with make up on. I have small eyes so I always make sure I put on eyeliner, eye shadow and mascara. The mascara isn't obvious here but I am wearing mascara. :) 

This is Etude House's Silky Cotton Pad which is also a great buy since it's great to use with the Mascara Remover. It's really soft and it's better than cotton especially if you are removing make up from your eyes. This box of Silk pads has 80 pieces and costs around P148.00. 

Product Review: Etude House Nail Polish DPK 002 Wink Pink

So here is another Nail Polish Review and for this review let's take a look at Etude House' DPK 002 Wink Pink which is part of their 'Dear My Deep Color Nails' line. 

I really wasn't planning to buy Nail Polish (I originally visited the store to purchase a moisturizer for my face---product review for that coming soon) since I just recently bought my blue Face Shop Nail Polish - see my review here. But I decided to buy this since I needed a little around P100 to be able to get a free gift from Etude House. (I chose the Pearl Mask--review for that one coming soon as well)

Product Review: Etude House Pearl Extract

The Etude House Pearl Extract Mask is a very common product since Etude House has this product as one of the gift items that they give when you have reached a single purchase of P500.00. Aside from that this pearl mask only costs P58.00. 

I got this Pearl Extract Mask as a free gift. I got to try it out when I had a little time in my hands. I would rather be relaxed and be able to fully experience the mask rather than just trying it on but being in a hurry to get to work. 

Make-up Haul: September 20, 2012

Fresh from my credit card swipe bag of goodies from today's trip from the mall!

See? It's not that much. 

Etude House: Look at My Eyes - GD03 Sand Gold Review

I'm not really a fan of eye shadows for the reason that I get a kick out of rubbing my eyes. I only have a few, probably half or a third of my lip product population. But because I was attending the wedding of my boss that time, I had to get a good eye shadow color. It should match my dress (designed by my mom and I, and she sew it) and my tan skin. So I went to Etude House and got this - Look at My Eyes GD03 Sand Gold.

Etude House: Miss Tangerine Follow Me Tint #2 Tangerine Follower Review

It's Friday, finally! I'm really looking forward to our long weekend getaway. I will do a review on the places we will be staying in the coming days. Hey, that's being random right?



Today, I will be reviewing one of the items I showed in my make-up purse post - Etude House's  Miss Tangerine Follow Me Tint.

Etude House: Black Head Final Kit Review

I was supposed to put up a Milk Tea post today, but I wasn't able to get the photos from my laptop last night. Argh. >.>Likewise, I still have so many swatches to make. I have their photos with their packaging sans the swatch (and redo others). Plus I'm also taking care of the pilot chapter of out story, and some character sketches. Gah! I'm so behind. Being sick for a week does make a difference. Need to make more post-its as a reminder.

Oh well. Moving on... Let's see what we have here... Oh, you're gonna be interested with this one.



During those days when I was so much into Etude House (it was relatively new in the mall that time, and definitely way cheaper than Skinfood), I would drop by their store and check what's new. I would always fins myself touching the Black Head Final Kit, and trying to rationalize if I need it.

Until one day, I just bought it. I wonder, will it deliver as promised?

Haru: What's in My Make-up Bag?

I've been going thru a lot of make-up reviews over the web, and noticed a peculiar trend - showing stuff off their makeup bags. Then I started to rummage into my own.

What is in my make-up bag?
