Update: Etude house Cotton Fit BB Cream



I'm still thinking if I had chosen the correct title for this entry or not.

I would actually want to talk about what happened to my skin after a month not using foundations, just this BB CREAM.

As i have mentioned before, the bb cream has been doing a great job in not giving me any breakouts. Last Sunday, I tried using my ever trusted Maybelline Dream Mousse Liquid Foundation and guess what? It gave me breakouts!!

It’s such a bummer because I used to love that foundation until it broke my skin out and it never really did that before.


I guess I have to stick to the BB Cream a lot more now as I wouldn't want my skin breaking out again.

That’s it for the update. Nothing much about the BB Cream, it’s more of like an entry in my “Break Out Diary” haha!

Good night!

April Favorties

So the month of April has been over for almost two weeks now and I was only able to find time to write about my last month's favorite today.

Here's a list of all the things that I have loved for the past month.

* Etude House Cotton Fit BB Cream
I have blogged about this couple of weeks ago and my thoughts about the product remain the same. I still am loving the product to its bits and pieces. :)

* Celeteque Acne Solutions Toner
My holy grail toner, it's mild on sensitive skin, helps in oil control, affordable! The big bottle only costs around 120 to 150 PHP

* Thanaka by UNO
I had my doubts about this product and I took me a while before I convinced myself to try it out. I use it as a mask every other night before I sleep and I wake up with a very nice skin in the morning! :)

* NYX Soft Matte Lip Cream in San Paulo
The same with the BB Cream, I have blogged about this one and I still am loving it. I bought a new shade and I'm not so obsessed with it unlike this one. I'll blog about the new shade soon!

* Maybelline Volume Express Hyper Curl Mascarra
This I think would be on my favorites every single month! Holy grail for me! I've been using this since college, I checked out other mascarras but I still haven't found anything that can replace this favorite of mine! I have also recommended this mascarra to a lot of girls and they love it as much! :)

* Sweet Pea by Bath and Body Works
This cologne has a very light sweet feminine scent that I think is perfect for summer

* Royale Beauty L-Glutapower with Glutathione and Vitamin E
I have been using this soap on my face for two months now. I love it because it doesn't break me out, it leaves a squeaky clean feeling on the skin plus it minimized my pores!

So these are the products that I loved for the month of April. I'm not too sure if there would be any changes for the month of May but I'll let you know.

Tata for now!

Etude House Cotton Fit BB Cream Review

A friend of mine went to Seoul, Korea and got me a BB Cream as a “pasalubong”. I have never been a fan of BB Creams since I first tried them put a few years back. I tried bb creams from missha, skin food, skin 79, maybelline, 4u2, etc and I didn't like their dewy finish, the scent of most of them, some have shimmer on them, most of them are sticky and just made my face look more oily than it already is.

However, when I got my hands on this particular one, I couldn't stop using it since then. This one’s way different from those that I've tried in the past. I like this BB Cream for the following reasons:

* matte finish
* does a great job in evening out skin tone
* very lightly scented, it has a powdery scent to it
* doesn't break me out
* doesn't feel heavy and sticky on the skin
* looks natural on me

I love this bb cream and I hadn't reached out for any of my foundations again since I started using this. It doesn't have the coverage that a foundation gives me and it doesn't last as long as well but I don’t really mind.

It comes in a squeeze tube with a pump. That merits a plus on my book. The shade that I have is called Natural Beige, they have two other shades, a lighter one and a darker one I just couldn't remember the shade names.

I've been using it for over almost two weeks now. I’ll be posting an update review after a month of using the product to see if what I feel about it remains that same or if it has changed in any way.







I hope this review help you in any way.
