Hey ya’ll, Darien here! I’m happy to announce that Etude House has made me an official Pink Bird! Since they send mostly make up items, I will be doing mini reviews with my sister, Whitney, who has guest spotted on my blog a few times already! This month’s box is full of new and old favorites which makes it great for a FOTD (Face of the Day) look featuring all Etude House products.

You can purchases all these products from the official Etude House site!

SO without further ado..let’s get to the goods!

Here is what we got to try for this month’s box! We will do a mini review of each product below!

The box included:

Etude House Wonder Pore Black Mask



Etude House Precious Minerals Any Cushion pearl Aura in Natural



Etude House Play 101 Pencil in #44



Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint in OR201



..and now onto the mini reviews!

REVIEW: Etude House Wonder Pore Black Mask

This is a new addition to Etude House’s Wonder Pore line…which is just okay in my opinion. I did not enjoy the Freshner, but I know my sister actually likes the Wonder Pore Ever Primer.This mask is a new trendy black mask infused with charcoal. Ingredients wise, it has the classic Water+ Glycol + Glycerin Base just like 99% of all sheet masks so you know that it is going to be super hydrating. Alcohol is the 5th ingredient, so I would avoid this if you are sensitive to alcohol. Positives are that the fit is amazing and it has a pleasant smell that is not strong at all. It is hard to describe the scent, but I found that 5 minutes in, I couldn’t even smell the mask anymore (Fragrance is the last ingredient so that’s good). The mask also contains a bunch of floral extracts for brightening and hydrating, but nothing overly special.

As I said before, the mask has a great fit. I have a huge face, so being able to cover it all is already A+ in my book. RESULTS wise, it left my face hydrated and plump like any other mask. In conclusion, other than the novelty of a black sheet mask, this is not much better than the standard Etude House I Need You masks! Both masks are great though…just one cost twice as much haha. 3/5

Review: Etude House Pearl Aura Cushion in Natural + Comparison with the regular Any Cushion

So since this color is too light f me, my sister,Whitney, will be doing a guest review on these products with a FOTD! So from here, I will leave it to her!

This is the newest addition to Etude House’s Cushion Collection. It features a regular cushion but infused with many Pearl Aura Brighteners to give your face a super sparkly glow!

Compared to the regular cushion, the cases are the same thing.

The difference is…

the cushion itself!

The Pearl Aura Cushion has 6 highlighter spots to give your face some brightness. Compared to original cushions seen below.

The Cushion itself is nice and spongy. It has a cooling effect when used with the air puff.

The main feature is the pearl aura spots. A quick tip is to use a cotton swab to only get the pearl parts if you want a quick highlight. This seems like it would be great to save room in your makeup bag….since you have your foundation and your highlighter in one!

Here are the swatches (Darien was the swatch model, so excuse the hair HAHA). The Pearl Aura parts are actually a shimmery pink highlight while the cushion itself is a light-medium coverage bb cream.

The Cushion is nice. I was afraid since the pearl spots were not mixed with the bb cream, I would have patches of sparkles on my face, but when I blended it out..the results were pretty even! I decided to go with it and do a FOTD look featuring all the products from the box as well as my own Etude House products :D!

My product list is below!

I started with the Wonder Pore Ever Primer to hide all those pores! Then I used the Mint Baby Choux Base to remove the redness from my face. The star of the look, the Pearl Aura Cushion was next. I did some light contouring and concealing with the #4 and #7 Play 101 Pencils. Next, I did my eyeliner with the #44 pencil they sent and finished off my eyes with a pair of their Volume Lashes in #3. Lastly, I added some color to my lips with the Fresh Cherry Tint in OR201.

The effects of the cushion lasted pretty much all day. I retouched once, and it was super easy with the cushion. However, I do not recommend over applying or even reapplying often. You will become a sparkly white vampire. Unless you are going for that look..then go all out twilight!

In conclusion, while this comes off gimmicky, it is very convenient. I don’t think it will replace my regular highlighter or bb cream, but it is decent option when you need do your face quick! 4/5

To try and not try this on for forever, the next reviews are super short, sweet, and to the point!

Review: Etude House Fresh Cherry Tint in OR201

Whitney: This is a great color for those who want to change up from red or pink lips. It’s a very pinkish orange that smells like candy.

The color is vibrant on the lips as seen in my FOTD above and is decently moisturizing.

Darien is really bad at taking photos, but you can see the color pay off without and with flash below!







These tints are already one of my favorites and I have pretty much every color now haha! 5/5

Review: Etude House Play 101 Pencil in #44

Darien has already done a review on these pencils here if you like to read it!

These pencils are awesome! It is a bronzy metallic dark gold that glides on so nicely. I used this as my eyeliner and tear liner as well in my FOTD look.

One thing Darien forgot to mention in his review before is that these pencils come with their own sharpener at the end so you can get nice tip everytime. One thing to note however is that the sharpener does waste a bit of product :(!

The color is beautiful and it doesn’t budge well…which is great for eyeliners….but not so great when trying to use this as a multi purpose pencil for something like eye shadow as it doesn’t blend as well. PLUS it is kinda hard to remove.

I give this particular pencil a 3/5, because I love the lasting power and the color. I wish it blended easier and wasn’t such a pain to take off!.

You can purchases all these products from the official Etude House site!
