New: Dear My Wish Lips Talk Lipstick

The new Dear My Wish Lips Talk lipstick

There's a new lipstick at Etude House called Dear My Wish Lips Talk. I haven't tried it yet, but I would love to. However, I just bought the new Dear My Blooming Lips - Etude Pink a week or two ago and also my boyfriend got me the Princess Etoinette Cristal Shine Lips not long ago. So, I'll have to wait a bit, before I can afford the new lipstick.

However, there is a new event at Etude House every month where you can apply for a free sample or a free beauty tester and this month it's the new Dear My Wish Lips Talk lipstick. It says on the Etude House homepage that you have more chances of winning if you post the link to your blog. There's very little chance of winning, but it doesn't hurt to try.

The new lipsticks comes in 10 different colors. And there is another special event that started on September 15th, where you get a special lipstick holder if you order two or more Dear My Wish Lips Talk lipsticks.

Event: 2x Dear My Wish Lips Talk + Lipstick holder

Like I said, I haven't tried it yet. But I have several lipsticks from Etude House and I am really happy with all of them, especially the Etoinette Cristal Shine lipstick. I love the color and it is so nice and moist and it doesn't dry out your lips.

My humble collection of Etude House lipstics ^^

I am afraid the 'free samples' and 'free beauty tester' events are only available for princesses living in Korea, but you can order any of Etude House lipsticks online through either one of the Korean online shopping malls such as gmarket or through Amazon or any other page. The price for the new lipstick in Korea is 9500krw (9$).

This is the link to the Free Beauty Tester event:

My Order

I received my order today - yay!

I didn't spend too much, but this is what I got:

  • 1 Shea Butter Nutrifull Cream for 11.000krw (original price: 22.000krw)
  • 1 Moistfull Super Collagen Multi Stick for 6.000krw (original price: 10.000krw)

It is definitely worth buying things on sale. I just saved 15.000krw!!!



First the Super Collagen Multi Stick

The Moistfull Super Collagen collection came out this year, so it's still pretty new. The collection includes cream, essence, multi stick, eye cream, mask sheet etc. The sale is still on till tomorrow evening and if you buy the cream or eye cream you get 30% discount (40% for VIP members) AND a cute Etude House camper bag!

I ordered the multi stick, so I didn't get the bag :'( But that's okay :)
Since this collection is still rather new, you can get a sample for only 2.000krw (2$)! The sample box or the First Tiral Kit as it is called includes:
  •  25ml of essence
  • 10ml of cream
  • 5g of CC cream

And it looks like this:



I also got this kit for myself, but still haven't tried it out lol Obviously I have too much cosmetics as it is, but I can't resist myself... I always want more :D Well I decided to get the multi stick, since my skin is always quite dry. You have to apply it on your face before your moisturizing cream. You do this in the morning and evening. Also you can apply it again any time during the day when you feel the need to. And this is one of the reasons I ordered it. It is practical, it's small so it fits easily in your bag and you can use it whenever your skin feels dry again. And it smells really nice too. I have a feeling this will be really great to have in winter when my skin feel even more dry.



Anyway I'll try it out and I'll let you know about it after I've been using for a while.

Also, this is again a part where I would make a small event and give out Moistfull Super Collagen First Trial Kit to one of my blog readers (if I had any lol) I guess I'll have to wait with these gifting ideas for a while. Unless there are at least 5 people interested - in this case please let me know in a comment.

Okay, the second thing I got is the Shea Butter Nutrifull cream - 60ml that comes together with 20ml of Sleeping pack :) I've been using the Shea Butter Nutrifull eye cream for a while and this year I got a Shea Butter Skin Care Kit for free at one of my purchases in the Etude House Store.



I've been using it for a while and I love it. There's 10ml of cream, 10ml of essentializer and 20ml of sleeping pack. It feels great on the skin, but I mostly love the smell. It smells amazing!!! Anyway I've been using this kit for a while and I decided to finally get the cream. And here it is:



I am really happy with my order. I would love to write more about the Nutrifull collection, but I might write a review on it separately since I don't really have time to do it right now.
Anyway, the sale is still on till tomorrow night so hurry and order online! :)

Free Gifts from My Pink Etude Blog?

Last time when I posted a blog about my order, I got an idea about giving out some gifts every now and then. Especially in situations where I have two or more of the same items.

Last time I got another ETUDE HOUSE summer blanket, so I have two now. These blankets are not available for sale, but you can get them by participating in different events. However, most of these events are only available for princesses living in Korea.

Therefore, I was going to give one of my pink summer blankets to one of the princesses who don't live in Korea and would like to have it. ^^

Of course, I would need at least 10 subscribers or 10 people who read my blog regularly for this. ^^ Since I just started writing my blog less than a week ago, I doubt I have 10 readers ;) I might be wrong though.

Post a comment if you read my blog and tell me if you like this idea. If there are enough people interested I'll make my own simple event and give out my pink summer blanket :) Otherwise this would have to wait until my blog become a tiny bit more popular lol
Also you're welcome to subscribe ^^

HAVE A GREAT DAY!!!

My Order

On Saturday morning I received my order from Etude House, but I was too busy to post it online right away. But here it is.


I ordered:
  • one set of nail art stickers (2000krw = 2$)
  • one nail art dotting tool (2000krw = 2$)
  • one magic any cushion pink puff (2000krw = 2$)
  • one dear my blooming lips-talk lipstick: etude pink (5000krw = 5$)*
*this lipstick originally costs 10000krw (10$) but I used a 5000krw discount that I got from the "Let Your Pink Out" event.

And I received two gifts:
  • one pink summer blanket (free)
  • one kitty wrist cushion (free)
*These gifts were only available till the end of August, I wrote about them in my last post. Sorry if you missed them, but new events are coming up soon!

So basically I only paid 11.000krw (11$) for all this. ^^ I'm quite happy with my order, yay! ^^

First, let me show you the wrist cushion.




It is so cute! ^^ If you like pink and cute stuff like I do, you would love it! I wasn't sure how useful it would be though, when I got it. But there are several ways of using it explained on the wrapping:

  1. use it as a cushion when you fall asleep on your desk (very practical for students ^^)
  2. use it to clean your phone or your computer's screen (yup, possible, but I wouldn't want to make it dirty :'(
  3. use it as a cushion to support your wrist when using a computer mouse


The summer blanket is also cute and practical. I actually have one from before and I've been using it a lot! It is great to carry around because it fits in your purse. I wear skits most of the time, so it's perfect to cover your legs in places with strong air-condition. I use it on a bus, subway, cafes, movie theaters etc. Really practical.
Also, in Korea, you have to sit on the floor in many restaurants. If you wear a skirt that can be really uncomfortable. That's why it's great to carry a small blanket or a scarf around in your purse. Once you cover your legs you can sit more comfortably without showing off more than you'd want to :)


As you can see I have 2 so I haven't opened the one I just received yet.

I also got the new Etude Pink color of Dear My Blooming Lips-talk lipstick. I haven't tried it out yet, but the wrapping is really cute ^^




I might post a review on all the nail art items from my order later, however, you must keep in mind that I'm a complete amateur when it comes to nail art. I would seriously need the "nail art for dummies" book or video, although there's a chance even that wouldn't help me much either :) But anyway, I tried out the dotting tool today and this is what came out.



The dotting tool actually works well, you just have to know how to use it. Maybe I just need time to get used to it. After all, this WAS my first time using it.

You are of course welcome to share your tips on nail art or anything else in the comments. ^^

Also if you are interested in buying any of these items from abroad and are not sure where to find them, ask me and I will help you out! ^^
