Went to Chinatown today. Makeup done using Naked3 makeup palette. Definitely cannot do without a cushion-Apieu Airfit cushion shade #23. Play 101 stick in #10 helps me to highlight the inner corner of my eyes. Makeup was definitely made much easier thanks to these items.

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!

Etude House Play 101 Concealer Pencils #7,8,9,10 Review and Swatches
Here is a review on Etude House's Play 101 pencils. I got all 4 of the concealer colors to swatch and stuff, so if that sounds interesting to you....read on lol.
I got these from the official Etude House Global site for around $6 each, but of course you can always get them cheaper on TesterKorea or RoseRoseShop. They looked fun, so I decided to add them to a mask haul when they did free shipping and 50% off masks. I have around 200 etudehouse I need you masks chilling in my cabinets now haha.
6 didn't come, because he was afraid of 7.
Why?
Because 7, 8, 9.
So 10 took his place.
I'm not a makeup ingredients buff, so bear with me haha. I notice that are a lot of silicones in these products, which probably gives it that smooth glide on texture. Titanium Dioxide is present pretty high up there..I assume as a color agent? They don't specify that they have any spf, so I wouldn't expect much in regards to that. There is also coconut oil, which can be an acne trigger for some, so be careful if you're sensitive to that.
These pencils are twist ups with no fragrance. The product itself is very soft and creamy. These are matte and glide on very smoothly. They are about the size of regular pencil too.
-
Cat Swatches of course. #7 is too light for me, but could be useful for concealing certain things I guess. #8, 9, and 10 are all really good mixing colors. A mix of #8 and #9 matches my skin perfectly, while #10 is a little more pink. My face is tad lighter than my arm, so it was a good idea to get a mix of colors to mix. So far, I am very happy with the colors.
These things are very blendable and will mix well into your skin. HOWEVER, once it's dry and been on your skin for a minute, it doesn't really budge, so work quick.
Now for a coverage test...on a bruise on my arm haha.
As you can tell, it covers decently...however it takes a bit of work. While the coverage is kinda build-able...it is really easy to make it look cakey. I tried my best, but it still looked bad. The bruise was near my elbow, so the area was kinda dry...and it looked it after the application. TBH I probably should have used something for color correction instead, but oh well. Oh also,the lasting power is pretty decent too. 5 hours later and I noticed it was still chilling fine as it was.
I give these a 3.5/5. They are affordable pencils and they come in many many more options. This review was based on them as concealers. The main issue is that it does accentuates any dry patches, so these are probably better for people with oilier skin. I think they are okay, but they do not layer well as they will get noticeable and cakey. However I am glad to find some good colors to work with.
