Etude House Oh m'Eye Lash mascara

Picture First of all i have to say, this mascara is GREAT for its price.  I've tried the petticoat, volume and longlash, volume, and top coat.  The one that i'd recommend over all of them is the volume mascara because it is really great for building the length of your lashes and providing more volume to them.  Plus, this mascara is 4000 won, which is like $3-4 in the US. Anyways, back to the volume mascara - this mascara is kind of thick? so it pushes up your lashes and really build the length of them.  It is really awesome if you are looking for a mascara that builds up your length. 
Definitely recommend you try it!!

Etude House Code B cream liner

This cream eyeliner is one of the best that I've tried.  It doesn't smudge, it's dark and bold, and it goes on smooth.  Pros: again, no smudges, fast drying, and bold color.  However, it is expensive, 9000 won at Etude House, but it might be a bit more if you are buying it online or from a foreign site and not directly in Korea.  I bought mine from Korea and it was 9000 Korean won.  Also, the fast drying effect can be a con as well as a pro because if you make a mistake, it is difficult to remove. and if it gets on your eyelashes, you've got a problem - it will clump them up majorlyyy!  At the end of the day, it is hard to remove with regular soap.  Also, it comes in a plastic container, which may be a good or bad thing depending on your preference,  It is a very small container that comes with a brush (another plus)!  The brush does get hard if you don't wash it after each use, which can make things difficult (not to mention painful for your eyelids - because the brush will feel scratchy on your lids if it is packed hard with the product).  Overall, I recommend this product! It's one of the best cream eyeliners ive tried and is definitely worth the price.  Just some helpful tips: wash the brush after each use, and when you apply the liner, start from the middle of your eyelids and go outward, then go back to the inner corners.

Etude House Moistfull Massage Mask

Etude House's Moistfull collection caught my attention because of its pretty pink appearance and it's moistful looking creams and solutions.  However, the line was on the pricey side, and I was a bit skeptical because "moisturizing" products don't always do as they say.  The first thing that caught my attention was this product - the massage mask, because it had a jelly-like appearance and the price was not too bad. 
The first time I used this product, I didn't notice much of a difference, because my skin was already pretty moisturized and I hadn't experienced any dryness before.  But, a few months ago, my skin started to get really dry and peely, so I decided to give this mask a try again.  IT WAS AMAZING!  The dryness and flakyness virtually disappeared! My skin was soft and felt moisturized, and the mask even seemed to brighten my complexion!  I would definately recommend this product to anyone who suffers from dry or peeling skin and wants a quick way to fix and moisturize your skin.  This mask can be used as a massage mask, a regular 10-15 minute mask, and even an overnight mask, meaning that it really doesn't matter how long you leave the mask on.  I haven't tried it as an overnight mask, but i find that leaving it on for about 15 minutes or using it as a massage mask for about 3 minutes works great.  I really love this product and would recommend it to everyone.

Etude House Lucidarling Gradient Eyes eyeshadow

When i saw this eyeshadow set at Etude House i thought "wow, this is SOOO cute!" so i had to try it.  I have to say that this eyeshadow is alright, but it's kind of powdery.  It doesn't give you a finished look because it just looks like a bunch of powdery eyeshadow on your eyelids.  I think that it's just the silver color actually, so maybe that's just the effect it's supposed to have... ? i dont know..  Either way, this eyeshadow is really cute, and a great thing to keep in your purse; however, i wouldn't recommend it as a main eyeshadow for everyday use. I've only used this a couple times, so it's hard for me to say... i'll update this after a few more uses.  
I got this palette in the pink and silver shade but i do believe that the other color selections may have a better color payoff.  I will be purchasing this in a couple more colors and let you know. This time, i'll be sure to do swatches in the store before i buy!
