♡ Etude House Princess Happy Ending Collection ♡

みなさん、こんにちは!

How is it, with my luck and all, that when I decide to go on a make-up ban and use up what I have lying in my make-up storages that a completely gorgeous new make-up line appears in front of my eyes?! The fact that it's two of my favourite things combined - Disney and Etude House - it's just made me feel worse! 
I adore the four princess they chose to base this line around, but one day I hope they bring out more products based on other princess like the popular Ariel (The Little Mermaid) and Aurora (Sleeping Beauty) or even the not so well talked about Jane (Tarzan) and Kida (Atlantis: The Lost Empire). Also, after doing some research on the line, I found out that a couple of the products are re-packaged versions and if I had not found this out, I would have been disappointed with one of these products as it is not my favourite whatsoever, even though my mind is contradicting myself into wanting it because the packaging is too super duper adorable.
On the facebook page for Etude House - they seem to be popping out videos of make-up tutorials using the products (and others from recent lines like the Play 101 Pencils) to re-create a specific look linked to each individual princess. I love this idea so much because there are people, i.e. like myself, who cannot re-create looks just by staring at a picture. I hope they bring out the other two princesses looks as they only seem to have done Cinderella and Snow White for now.
Also, I don't know if it's just me, but it kind of sucks that they've only done two products for Jasmine - and the mascara is a re-package anyway so technically there is only one new product for her... boo. I honestly want them to expand on her more like... now please?!
Princess Happy Ending Precious Mineral BB Cream Blooming Fit
프린세스 해피엔딩 진주알 맑은 BB크림 블루밍핏 | 60g - 15,000원

Princess Happy Ending Lash Perm Proof Shockcara
프린세스 해피엔딩 래쉬펌 방수 쇼크카라 | 10g - 11,000원

Princess Happy Ending Rose Cheek Blusher
프린세스 해피엔딩 로즈 치크 블러셔 | 4.8g - 8,500원

Happy Princess Ending Fairy Glitter Shadow
프린세스 해피엔딩 페어리 글리터 섀도우 | 4.5g - 8,000원

Princess Happy Ending Lipstick
프린세스 해피엔딩 립스 | 3.5g - 9,000원

Princess Happy Ending Nail Kit
프린세스 해피엔딩 네일키트 | 8mlx2 - 6,500원


Does this line not make you want to go out and spend all your money frivolously on it? I am honestly stumped on which product is my favourite... I cannot decide between Belle's lipsticks because the colour is simply divine nor the eyeshadow as the colours chosen are just really on point. Again, I really hope the expand this line in the future as this is, by far, my ultimate favourite of the collections Etude House has brought out over the past few years, bypassing the Princess Etoinette collection by a long shot. I honestly cannot wait until these products start being sold online... goodbye make-up ban you were fun whilst you lasted a whole three weeks.
What product captures your eyes the most? Would any of you be 'investing' in a couple of things or even the entire collection? Please note that all pictures displayed here are from the Etude House homepage/facebook page and are NOT my own work.

♡ Etude House Princess Etoinette Collection Part II ♡

みなさん、こんにちは!

Now, I did find out about this a couple of days ago but alas as per usual... I'm behind on writing things! Now; if you all remember that last year, Etude House brought out a delectable (and extremely pretty) collection called 'Princess Etoinette' and whilst sadly I couldn't get my hands on any of those products... Etude have now brought out another part of this particular collection; Princess Etoinette Season II for this coming winter!


Instead of the packaging being pink and gold like last time... they've upgraded to white and silver which personally I prefer as I prefer silver over gold any day of the year. Also the fact they've brought out an eau de toilette really intrigues me as well but I don't really like the obvious shiny plastic material for the main part of the bottle... it could be glass though so until I hold it physically in my hands my opinion about it will stay... oh and the bubble squeezy... thingy to squirt out the perfume is definitely my favourite piece as my great aunt used to have a perfume bottle with one of them on it and I remember playing pretend princesses/movie stars with it etc


Next... I'm certainly happy that they've brought out some new lipstick colours! Is it obvious that I love lipsticks / glosses? If you saw my make-up box you'd wonder what the heck is wrong with me... unless you have the same obsession with lipsticks like I do!


Might have to (definitely) purchase all three colours as it's rather hard to decide which one I prefer the most. Now in the last collection there was a shimmer powder and blush pot and this time there is an all over powder (and they suggest putting it on your eyes, cheeks and lips) but you could put it in other places of your face / body to give a shimmer to your skin.


I love the little decorative pots the best because once you've finished with the powders (and you can't get refills) I guess you can always use them for storing earrings / rings or even other blushes / powders that original broke in their packaging. Next is the blooming perfumed hand cream which comes in two scents; white peony and pink rose! Now peony is actually my favourite flower in the world so this collection is winning on so many levels!


And finally there shall also be two candles in the same scents as the hand cream! With the bath bombs from the last collection and these candles in this collection you'd probably feel like a proper princess whenever you decide to have a pampering bath!


Edit; the candles actually weren't the last thing in the collection! There shall be a new compact mirror as well as some perfumed hair mist to make your locks smell all lovely for the day ahead!


Well it's official. Etude House have won on so many levels with this extension to the Princess Etoinette collection and it is now a must must must for me to get my hands on a couple of these items! Now all they need to do is a princess style hand mirror (kind of like Lioele's little hand mirror or Anna Sui's rose mirror line?) and a matching brush / comb then I am sold so much! What catches your attention the most from this collection?

♡ Disney Romantic Eyelashes ♡

みなさん、こんにちは!


If two of your favourite things were combined how would you feel about it? Happy? Confused as hell? How about so ecstatic your insides could burst with happiness because that, my friends, is how I'm feeling right about now as I have literally just found out that there are Disney eyelashes in the world! Like oh my goodness I know others probably do know about these but hey... being late to the party is my thing ヾ(^^ゞ) as soon as I saw these beautiful lashes... something inside of me clicked... something in my mind telling me that I must get my hand on some of these beauties no matter what the consequences so it is now officially my plan to get a few of these into my collection


Finding these to purchase online was seriously a struggle but finally perseverance prevailed and the only place to purchase online for now is DreamV and I have heard that you can order for overseas shipping on this site... unless there is another DreamV that others talk about! Anyway if I have to use a shopping service or twist a friends arm to get these... so be it!



This line of particular lashes have been split into two categories; Sweet Eye and Sexy Eye where the Sweet Eye is a gorgeous natural brown colour whilst the Sexy Eye sticks to the ink black colour. Has anyone ever had experience with natural coloured/brown lashes before? I've never tried it myself before so never had any personal experience... so maybe more reasons to get them? Wow I am digging myself a massive hole here (_ _ll)


I'm actually rather disappointed that the packaging only has Daisy Duck on two of them... I'd love to see some more with Daisy Duck as in honesty, I actually prefer her to Minnie Mouse. It would be so lovely to see this brand of lashes over here in the UK or on a site that has easy access to purchasing for overseas buyers and not limited to a certain audience etc.

♡ Etude House Rosy Tint Lips ♡

みなさん、こんにちは! 


Late as per usual... but when I finally decided to venture back onto Etude House's website what would behold me but a new line of make-up. It's not exactly a whole line... only a new lipstick slash lipgloss (?) but in some seriously beautiful colours and each individual colour definitely reminds me of a rose garden


I think what interests me the most about this new product is how you can have two purposes with each lipstick. One being creating an ombre effect - where the colour is prominent in the middle of you lips and then you gradient the colour out to the edges - and the second effect  comes across just a full matte colour. I'm really bad at explaining the second one d'oh!







I honestly do not have a favourite colour as of yet... but I'm certain that I'm going to have to sneakily nab a few of these once it gets released! I also liked how on the website they give you a couple of ideas of how to design your make-up around the two effects (hence the two word boxes)

♡ Etude House Princess Etoinette Collection ♡

みなさん、こんにちは!
I know I am probably behind in finding out about this collection but I am seriously screaming in happiness at the latest collection by Etude House. I adore the whole pink princess theme and it certainly appeals to someone who enjoys this sort of stuff on a day to day basis.

The fact is that this collection doesn't stop at just make-up such as blusher, lipstick, highlighter and eyeliner etc. It incorporates other items such as bath bombs, make-up brushes, make-up cases and candles which I feel makes a great change so you can have other things to make you feel like a Princess everyday that is not just make-up.
















I like how with the make-up, they show all the colour systems that they have included as well as give you ideas on what you can do with your make-up style. Aish it is certainly very hard to decide which one I like the best!









Ahhh I honestly want the whole collection! And luckily I've found a site that ships this collection abroad so I am pretty chuffed that I can access this collection via somewhere else and not having to pine exceedingly at their online store!
Buy here and look here for Etude House homepage
