First Etude House Purchase

I recently ran out of lip balm… thought my next one has to be from Etude House. I’ve been to every single EH branch and I’ve been meaning to buy from them, but I just couldn’t make a final list of what I really want to get which are mostly skincare products, for fear of getting breakouts. Up to now I’m still onto the list but the lip balm can’t wait.

So I went off to Etude House in Festival mall in Alabang. I got myself a Magic Tint Balm, as well as a black charcoal chin pack. My Kuya’s gf celebrated her birthday last Sunday and I decided to get her EH’s Follow Me Lip Tint Balm from their 2NE1 collection.

Magic Tint Balm shade #01 Magic Red for myself. Feels nice on the lips and smells like cherry! Only 198 PHP.

Etude House’s Follow Me Lip Tint Balm for my Kuya’s gf. She’s a big fan of 2NE1 (and Big Bang), so I got her this. My first time to come across and get ahold of a color-changing lippie! Looks minty green but turns to pink when applied. Cool, eh? ^_^ Only 298 PHP.

The black charcoal chin pack costs only 35 PHP. I’ve used it already, I noticed it tightened my pores and smoothened the skin around my chin area. In case you’re curious as to what it really does, here’s the text at the back of the packaging:

Since my purchase was over 500 PHP, I got their free membership card. It entitles cardholders 2% rebate (for a minimum purchase of 100 PHP) which can be used on future purchases. Nice!

I was hoping they would give me freebies, something like a Jang Geun Seuk folder instead of Lee Minho’s (is there any like it? coz I really really like him as Tae Kyung in You’re Beatiful~), but unfortunately I didn’t get any. I better finalize my list and make sure I surpass that 1000 PHP mark to get freebies!

I look forward to more puchases from Etude House. I’m actually eyeing their BB Magic Balm and Brightening Sleeping Pack (I’m getting Queen Helene Mint Julep Masque instead), but I can’t buy the BB Magic Balm til my Missha bb cream runs out. :suspicious:

Can you recommend any other Etude House products?

    Nice haul you have here. It’s been a while since I visited EH. Haven’t used my Pink membership card pa.

      I hope that there will be an Etude House store here in SM Rosales which is the nearest SM here in our place. :(

        I went to SM Megamall yesterday and was looking forward to visit EH but sadly, I wasn’t able to find it.

          Hi TJ! The Etude House in Megamall is really hard to find. Anyway, it’s located in Megamall A building,leftmost and back part of the mall. It seems like it’s at the back of Penshoppe, near Toy Kingdom and Bench. Hope you find it next time! :)

            I wish there’s EH here too. T____T I like the Follow Me Lip Tint Balm. Parang ayaw ko sa EH BB creams. I saw a blog post kasi where yung blogger naglagay siya ng iba-ibang bb creams sa isang blotting sheet then let it sit for one hour. Yung pinaka-oily yung EH. Yung may pinakamaliit na oil yung BRTC and Missha.

              Aww. I hope Etude House will open a branch in your area in the future. :) If not, you can still purchase online at a higher price, or I can get them for you and have them shipped to your place. :)

              I didn’t know about EH’s bb creams being oily. The reason why I’m interested in their bb magic balm, is because it only comes in one shade so I assumed it would blend with any skin tone, and the fact that fewer people broke out with it compared to Missha and Skinfood. I might get it next, but who knows, I change my mind everytime I get to read good raves about another prod. XD

              Oh cherry smelling lip balm sounds lovely! I love cherry scented things. :heart: The colour changing one is rather cool as well.

                      Hi Tine! I don’t think they have a black charcoal pack/mask for the entire face.

                      I’m assuming you want to tighten your pores? Etude House has Pore Tightening Sleeping Pack which costs around 430PHP. It’s in a large tube, will probably last a long time. :)
