REVIEW ETUDE HOUSE "STAY UP" FOUNDATION #ROSY

I would like to have a review about my recent foundation. I’ve been avoiding foundation for a long time. Because when I was a kid my mother told me to never use foundation. She

said that It can clog my pores and will lead to break out.

So all of this time, I have been living with only bb cream or cc cream. But It doesn’t give enough coverage to my face. Actually my face has nothing really important to hide, since I have a normal skin and rarely having breakouts.  But I do have a little acne scar from a long time ago, and using bb cream does not give the full coverage that I want.

I’ve ever tried the Revlon series but it turns out so bad. It gets darken after 2 hours and I don’t want to use it anymore. On December last year, I was going to sing in a Christmas concert, so I need something to give me a different look.

Two weeks before the concert, I saw the etude house dear my wish lipstick campaign, and at once I attracted to Chrystal’s look in the campaign. When I scrolled down, I saw they were offering a sale on the new foundation “stay up” it was only Rp 135.000, so I decided to buy it.

I pick the rosy shade. It actually has 4 shades pure, rosy, beige, and sand. I thought that the rosy shade will give me a little bit pinkish shade which I really love rather than the ordinary beige shade.

The package is quite cute, but it doesn’t look very expensive since it was made of plastic. When I put it on my face, it does give me a little bit rosy shade, but not so red.. only a hint of pink.. And it also gives me a really nice natural glowing face and doesn’t look pale. The smell is just so so.. it doesn’t bothering me unlike the old version of cotton fit bb cream.

The covering power is.. I can say medium because you still need concealer to hide scar and acne spots. You can’t build it until 3 or 4 layers because it can get flaky.. 2 layers are maximum I think.. The consistency is more liquid then the bb cream.. it doesn’t weigh my skin down the stay up power is quite awesome.  I used it from 7 o’clock in the morning and when I got home at 9 or 10 pm it still there, even though it doesn’t cover as much as the morning layer but at least it still there, it leaves me a glowing blurred skin that still natural enough.

So overall, this foundation is good. Will I purchase it again? Maybe yes.. We’ll just see in the future but I do want to try the pure shade..

Pro :       1. Cheap price

                2. cute packaging

                3. nice scent

                4. lightweight on skin

Cons :    1. Medium coverage

                2. can turn flaky if I build up

my thoughts about korean cosmetics

i've been starting to use the korean products since a year ago and i'm kind of addictive to it this recently.. well, i can say that i have almost try all the level of korean cosmetics. there are 3 types of korean cosmetic based on the price, (i've read this in other people blog but it's okay i just use this as reference to the products i've used).. the first one is the most expensive such as history of whoo, sulwhasoo, sk2, hera etc
 the middle one are like laneige, missha, innisfree faceshop etc and the cheap one are etude, tonymoly, peripera, skinfood, holila holika (i say this is cheap because there are almost no product above rp300.000).. but the quality and the effect depends on our skin.. i couldn't say the expensive one is better than the cheap one because based on my experience my skin cannot adapt to the expensive one.. i don't know why but it makes a burning feeling on my face.. and after i read some review i realized that the high-end products are targeted for people above 30.. so next time you want to try the high end products, just try the mini size first. i will review about some of the history of whoo products that i've ever used..
so now lets talk about the effect of korean skincare products on my face..
i want to share a story with you girls.. when i was in the primary 6th, i have lot's of acne and also oily face.. i think my mother's genetic has something to do with this.. (when she wiped
her face with blotting paper you can use the oil for frying egg haha) one day my mother bought for me sariayu cleansing milk and toner in jeruk nipis variant ( i live in indonesia if there any one that wants to know the product just leave a comment below) and after 3 months using it, my acne are gone and also i don't have any oily face anymore.. i kept using it again.. until one night i feel my forehead skin wrinkled like a grandma.. (really! you can touch the wrinkle that time and i was only 10 years old) i told my mom and she asked me to wash my face using regular cleanser and put some moisturizer on my face. and since that day my face cannot produce any oil.. i usually teased my friend in the high school by showing them my face has no trace on the blotting paper..
but the negative side is that my face is extremely dry.. in extreme situation it will leave red patches and flakes.. i've tried almost all the skincare thst i could find in my town (i live in pontianak which have a very limited options, and none worked.. i even tried the hada labo series for dry skin but it has no effect.. until at last.. my friend started to sell sample of korean cosmetics.. i tried the laneige water bank essence and i found my true soulmate.. it lives no greasy feeling on my face and it absorbs really well.. my face began to heal and now its not dry anymore.. i can't say it is normal skintype but maybe it is more to the normal to dry skin type, but overall its better than before.. another rehydrating products that i used are etude supercollagen ampoule, and etude pure baobab moisturizer.. so thank you korean skincare for saving my skin.. sorry for the long post. if you have any question just comment down below.. thanks all.. see you in my next post..

i've wanted to make my blog since i read so many blogs that like to give review about korean cosmetic which i really love. m And now since i started to buy lots if makeup and also korean skincare, i really want to make a review about it.. so that people out there who probably want to buy that thing (but don't know much about that product) can find my blog somewhat useful.. so see you soon girls in my next post

hi everyone.. this is my new blog
