Product Review:Etude House Petit Darling Eyes Matte no. 1

Hello again dollies!
For today's review, it's about my first eyeshadow and it's from Etude House.
Sorry for the bad lighting
This is the Petit Darling Eyes Matte no. 1.  This eyeshadow is one of my first Etude House product and I chose this color because I am just new to makeup and I think this is a good color for a natural look.  They have plenty of colors to choose from but I think they just have five colors from this line which is the matte line. For me this is kind of expensive for an eyeshadow because it cost Php 148 while the other single eyeshadow just cost Php 60 plus like from Nichido. Anyway I just bought this in order to avail the membership card and I am just experimenting with makeup when someone bought this for me for my birthday. So moving on with the review.

First let's talk about the packaging. I really love the packaging, it is so princess-y like and it will be a good addition to your collection of eyeshadow. They look great if they are plenty and I am thinking of collecting these even though it is kind of expensive. This is quite small and fits nicely at the palm of your hand. It comes with a flip top cover just like of a compact powder.

It is kind of sturdy and in my opinion, this wouldn't break easily even if you drop it. The powder itself has a really nice texture. It is not chalky and powdery, it is more of a creamy texture which I really love. As you can see there is an engrave of a flower like thing in the eyeshadow and it really looks cute. and the color of it is like a creamy white mocha and it reminds me of a mocha ice cream. The smell of it is like your any ordinary powder and eyeshadow. So for the swatched of this product just see the photo below.
Swatched with my finger (I am really sorry for the bag lighting I did my best to took a picture of it where it shows the true color but I really can't)
It is quite pigmented when swatched but it tends to be light when blended. Here is a photo when swatched at the back of my hand.

let's take a closer look of it shall we?

and this is how it looks like when blended.

Blended it with my fingers
Now do you see what I mean? The color of this eyeshadow tends to get light when blended and it kind of leaves a sparkling finish so it isn't actually a matte eyeshadow. It tends to be washed out easily too I think I just had it on my eyelids for an hour but I guess I have oily lids so that's why. I guess the color will show up if I used an eye primer and it will stay much longer. I guess this eyeshadow is good for highlighting and as a base color on your lids.Anyway it is a cute product and I don't hate it.


THE PRODUCT: Petit Darling Eyes Matte no. 1
PRICE:  Php 148
PLACE: Etude House SM Megamall (Old branch)
WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:

  • The packaging
  • Texture

WHAT I DON'T LOVE ABOUT THIS PRODUCT:

  • Kind of expensive
  • Pigmentation when blended
  • Not really matte

WILL I RECOMMEND IT/ BUY IT AGAIN?:
I recommend it to those who loves collecting eyeshadows especially single ones. I will buy these cuties again because I just want to collect these cute lovelies and I guess it will look good on my vanity table.
RATING: I give this product a   2/5

THE VERDICT:
I really love this product for its packaging and texture but the pigmentation and lasting power is not that good. I think I need a primer for this one to have a good color pay off and lasting power.

Till next time dollies!
Stay pretty!

Product Review:Etude House Lip and Eye Makeup Remover Review

Hello again dollies! 
Another review again for today to make up with you dollies! 
For my next review I will be reviewing the Etude House Lip and Eye Makeup Remover 
Since that I am into makeup now I need a makeup remover because you can't just wash off those makeup with just soap and water or facial wash.  So I bought Etude House's Lip and Eye Makeup Remover.



The exact name of this product is Lip and Eye Remover which is kind of funny  If you are stupid enough you will believe that it will remove your lips and eyes literally  kidding aside let's go to the review.

Product Description: Gentle yet highly effective, this double formulated lip and eye remover easily and instantly dissolves all traces of makeup for soothing and moisturizing effect on the sensitive eye and lip area without any irritation.




Back


By the product description, this product sounds promising. This is my first ever makeup remover so I really can't compare it with others but I will give my honest opinion on this product. So let's head to the review.

As soon that I got my hands on this, I kept on using it every time that I am removing my eye makeup. If you notice this product is two toned. The upper part is color blue and this is the oil while the lower part is transparent but I don't know what that is. The packaging is quite cute and kind of sturdy. It is made of a good plastic and doesn't look cheap. Here is the cap of the product.
It has the code and serial number in it
The opening of the product is really good to. It doesn't spill and you can control the amount of product that you need.

The consistency of the product is a mixed of water and oil. It is not that oily and watery so it has a right consistency. The smell is actually good too and it makes makeup removal fun. So let's check how effective the product is. I only have the Oh~ M' Eye Line #2 and Oh~ M' Eye Lash Double up Volume Mascara for my eye makeup (I am still starting collecting makeup) so I can't say how really effective this product is with other makeup. Below I have a swipe of the two products.
Left is the mascara and at the right is the liquid eyeliner.
I let it dry for a few seconds to see how effective the product is. After letting it dry it is the moment of truth. I put an ample amount of the Lip and Eye Makeup Remover in a tissue and swipe it in my hand, and here is what it looks like in one swipe.


As you can see it easily removes the eyeliner even though it leaves a small residue in it while the mascara just smudge.  I swiped it again for 3-4 times and this is what happened.

Yay finally squeaky clean!
It proves that this is a good product and can easily remove eye makeup especially the ones that is made by Etude House as well. It doesn't leave any residues even after I washed my face with my current favorite cleanser.HERE The formula is also moisturizing and it doesn't sting my eyes and no blurring which I actually love. I also tried this on my lips removing the Shawill lip gloss that I have and it removes the product quickly on my lips. It has no taste as well which I really love and moisturizes my lips as well. This is a really good product and it will remove your eye and lip makeup easily especially if you are lazy at night.

PRICE: Php 198

WILL I RECOMMEND IT/ BUY IT AGAIN?:
I will surely repurchase and recommend it those who loves lip and eye makeup that are looking for a good makeup remover for a good price.

RATING:
I rate this product a    5/5

THE VERDICT:
This is a really good product for its price. It really does a good job in removing makeup and I don't have any complaints with it. I am satisfied and will repurchase this every time I ran out of this.

Stay pretty dollies!
