Review : ETUDE HOUSE DREAMING SWAN COLLECTION

Review : Etude House dreaming swan #veiling powder pact

Hi all, few days ago, i promised a review about etude house brand new product which is the dreaming swan line. I purchased 2 items from this line which are the veiling powder pact and the lipstick in shade pk023. The line itself has 5 poducts which are : veiling pact, cheek and eye blusher, highlighter, lipstick and a cute tutu brush.


So, i'll begin with the packaging of the veiling pact powder. This line was created by etude house feat Kerrie Hess an Australian ilustrator who has worked for Chanel, Vogue and net - a - porter. She is also the author illustrator of stylebook shoe string and now she colaborated with etude house to make the dreaming swan line! So i surely bet the design will be great!

The packaging is indeed beautiful, with the sketch of a ballerina. Surely i will not throw away the packaging even after the product has emptied. Isn't that the reason we bought it at the first place? Ha ha

The box of the powder itself is quite big, i thought it will be smaller. The case is made of hard matte plastic which has soft surface and i'm afraid that it can slip out from my grip.

Fortunately, the picture on top of the lid is not a sticker. I saw a blogger giving a glimpse of this product before i have it and she stated that it is a kind of sticker but i found out that it wasn't. It's a printed embossed picture. 

The pact itself come with built in mirror, i'm so happy to see a product that comes with a mirror since it can be handy when traveling. One thing that i admire from this product is the separate lid between the powder and the puff just like in cushion types.

The powder itself has a picture of ballerina shoes carved on it. The color of the powder is not beige like usual but tend to be pinkish shade just like the package. 
 
It claims as a veiling pact that naturally covers dark area and keeps skin smooth and bright all day. It contains white shimmer powder of transparent particles reflects glow to vitalize skin and naturally covers dull skintone with peach color. It can instantly smoothen the skin since it has smoothing powder of tiny and silky texture that filled pores and skin layers. It also has the sebum control and hydrate the skin all day long. (I took this from etude website)

Based on my opinion, it does do what it says. I used this as a finisher powder and when i reapplied it, my face stays bright until night. It helps to tone down little greasiness on my face but in the end of the day when i checked on the mirror, i could  see that it transforms into a nice glowing finish. 

Overall, i love this product and despite for it's nice packaging it also has wonderful effect.  
Will i purchase purchase it again? Surely, but sadly yhis product is a limited edition so i can't buy it again hiks hiks.. 

Next, i'll be reviewing about the lippy product. It called dear my blooming lips talk. It's a quite long name for a product but who cares! Haha the packaging adopted the same concept as the old blooming lips talk but with a different bottle color and materials. It is made from matte soft platic rather than the usual pink glossy bottle. The ribbon is also in white color rather than metallic pink. 

Unfortunately, i failed to understand that this is a matte lipstick. I thought it was a glossy lipstick just as the old blooming line. I rarely use matte lipstick and frankly this is my first time purchasing matte lipstick. But, when i tried the color, it was just so pretty. PK023 is a mixture of ponk and orange.. More like salmon color if you understand what i mean. I really love it. It glides on my lips smoothly with satin powdery finish. 

And it's very long lasting too for a lipstick. It fades after 4 hours, leaving a nice pink tint on my lips. The smell is nice, not too overwhelming. But, i have to warn you. Since it is a matte type product, it can accentuate dry and chapped lips (like mine!). So, i suggest you to exfoliate and apply lip balm before it. But overall, i really like this lipstick and i'm gonna purchase another shade as well as the highlighter! Haha.. 

Thank you so much for reading my blog. Below, i listed some pictures of the product and the swatches. Hope you girls enjoy it. I appreciate every comment that you leaves and i will reply it ASAP. See you in my next post!
