Tiny Étude House Haul: Lipstick, Nail Polish, and Skincare

This isn't a huge haul by any means, but Etude House, the Korean drugstore brand known for its cute packaging and products, was having a sale, and I picked up a few items that I couldn't wait to share with you guys!


My Tiny little Etude House haul! The skincare isn't pictured in this photo, though.

This time, the haul includes lipstick, nail polish, and skincare!

The lipstick I picked up was a Look at My Lips Lipstick in the colour #08 Lovely Antique Rose. This is very much a MLBB(my lips but better) kind of neutral rose with a hint of brown that is wearable for everyone regardless of your skin colour or undertone. The texture of the Étude House lipsticks that I've tried so far can be a little drying, but when it's 50% off, and when the colour is nice, why not?

One of the things I like about Étude House is the girly packaging. The tube packaging has "Look at" printed on it, while the lipstick itself has "my lips", because the series it lipstick is "Look at my lips". Cute, right?

Next, another 50% off buy was the Dear My Party Nails in #PPK006 Party Lover. This shade really stood out to me because of its unique mix of glitter in a sheer lilac base. There's glitter in various shapes - round, hex, square and bar, in various colours, primarily pink, purple, silver, and green. It's really interesting how the Asian brands have been quick to crank out interesting glitter shades when indie polishes became a big thing, and in this sense I do think that indie polishes do keep the big brands on their toes sometimes. I remember just a few years ago, you'd be hard-pressed to find any interesting glitters; it was all pink shimmers and girly cremes. Now, the Asian brands here are definitely keeping themselves on-trend, which I'm definitely happy to see.

But anyway, enough of my commentary. Let's move on to the next thing I bought. This is a skincare set from their Moistfull (yes, that is how it's spelled) range. It was 15 bucks, and prettily packaged, and I couldn't say no. I'm a sucker, I know.

The set consists of a jar of Moistfull Cream, and a tube of Moistfull Massage Mask. Not too bad, all things considered.

Lastly, I got a free gift! It's really just a hair tie, but darn, the packaging sure is cute!

And that's my small Étude House sale haul, which allowed me to indulge a little without breaking the bank (a critical life skill, if ever there was one). Hope you guys like it!
