Review: Etude House Styling Eyeliner - White -

Happy weekend friends, today i`m gonna reviewing a white eyeliner. White eyeliner is a must have items on my makeup collection, and using a white eyeliner on my waterline is the perfect way to make eyes more bigger and brighter.
But it's not easy to find a white eyeliner that have good staying power, so i`m still searching for a good one..
and couple month ago i decided to  bought a white eyeliner from Etude brand..
let me share with you my opinion about this eyeliner...
 
Product name: 
Etude house styling eyeliner in white

Price: 
from $3-$5 ... it depends on where you buy it. it's quite affordablle
 
Where to buy?
 you can buy this item on the online shop selling korean beauty products.., i bought this stuff directly from korea.. ( testerkorea.com).
 
 Packaging: 
This eyeliner is a retractable eyeliner.. so you only need to twist the bottom of the packaging and the eyeliner stick will came up... i like the eye products with retractable packaging... it's very easy to use.., no need to sharpened..oh ya, this packaging is cute too.. simple but pretty.. like another Etude house packaging...

Texture: 
The texture of the eyeliner is decent... it's not as creamy as urban decay 24/7 or NYX slide on eyeliner.. it's soft & creamy enough.. this eyeliner will not tug or hurt your eyes when you applied it.
 
Colors:
 This eyeliner has pearly white colors.. it's shimmery and glittery too, more like a silvery colors. actually i prefer the matte colors than a shimmery one, because the shimmery effect will be showing up my undereye finelines. so, nay for this colors

Pigmentation:
this eyeliner is quite pigmented.. 1-2 strokes is enough to give brighter effects on your eyes..it looks very natural..but if you need a color pay-off, you should apply this eyeliner with 4-5 strokes..

Staying power:
...i hate this part.. hiks... this eyeliner has bad staying power.. it's smudge easily and not waterproof at all.. it only can stays on my waterline less than 2 hours...


overall, hmm..i don't like the silvery colors.. but if you love the shimmery eyeliner, this eyeliner will be look pretty on you...it's not bad to make my eyes pop for a few hours.. i`ll not use this eyeliner for daily basis since this eyeliner easily fade off .. but it's ok to used for my FOTD post or any occasion with 2-3 hours need me to attend..

pros:
- cheap
- cute packaging and easy to use
- creamy texture

cons:
- bad staying power..

thx for reading..
have a nice weekend....

Review&Swatch:Etude House Fresh Cherry tint in `pink` (new packaging)

Hi, everyone.. i hope you are OK with my post about lip product.. haha. Lately, i feel like starting crazy about lip product.. i bought lot of new lip products.... hihi...because  i still looking for some new colors which are suit to my skintone.. not only from nude colors range.
and today, i`m gonna review this cute lip product from Etude brand..my first Korean brand lip product.


product name: Etude House Fresh cherry  in hot pink

price: IDR 65k / approx $6, its cheap enough for the 9 gr...


This is my first time trying a lip tint. it makes me courious, since my friend Intan Chen  told me how good this lip tint... she said it was very long lasting, feel so comfortable on her lips and look so natural... and yeaah, i decided to buy it...i have a new packaging version .. This lip tint available in 4 colors: red, peach, pink, and hot pink, 
but i choose the pink one.., i think the pink colors is more look great on my skintone...about the packaging, i love it.. it's more kawaii than the old one... so simple but pretty indeed... the aplicator wand is fine.., like another lipgloss wand... but i think, when i pull out the wand, the products is came out too much...but it's ok..

let me tell you, i always hate the lip product with strange smell...but this lip tint is not... it smells like a candy...
how about the texture? it feels very light on my lips... doesn`t feel heavy like if i`m wearing a regular lipstick, not sticky.. it feels like i`wearing nothing on my lips.. haha..it looks very natural..

now let's talk about pigmentation. i must say..this tint doesn't have a good pigmentation to cover my uneven lips... however, altough not so pigmented, this color is buildable.. you can add the layer to get more opaque colors.

so what about the color? i little bit surprised with the color on the aplicator wand... it looks very `milky` on the wand... not like a tint at all.. but when i swipe this milky tint, it turns out become a solid tint, look at this picture...

but honestly, i do not like the colors on my lips when this turned out into a tint.. i don't know why it becomes a peachy red colors, not so pink like what i want.. hiks.. here is the picture product on my lips:



staying power? it's decent.. this tint last for 3-4 hours on my lips.. not so bad, but it's not last for a day too...

anyway.. i`m still courious to try this lip tints from their old packaging, because i read lot of reviews that the old packaging have great staying power..
does it make my lips dry? Yes.. since this product is tint.. it doesn't have a moisture effect.. i always put a lip balm before i applying this lip tint...

overall.. this product is fairly ok! i`m not in love or neither hate too...

what i like?
- the cute packaging
- the light texture
- nice smells
- the buildable color

what i dont like?
- the color, it's not pink like what i want
- staying power is so so....
- it's drying


So, have you ever tried a lip tint before? i need your recomendation what kind of lip tint with good staying power..

thanks for reading,
have a nice day...
