My Etude House (semi) Haul and My First Haul Experience Story :)

(initially published on my previous blog '반짝반짝' on April 02, 2013)

Hey guys!
So, I decided to post about my first Etude House semi-haul. :)

Considering that the Korean pop culture is really one of my interests, I've grown to love one of the things they are also famous for : their cosmetics (yehey!)
Holika Holika, The Face Shop, Missha, and TonyMoly are to name a few.

But, one of the most famous brands out there is (of course) Etude House.

I have been a fan of a lot of things in Etude House (from their endorsers, their products, and their cute interiors as well).

Well, I have been to a few Etude House branches near where I live (in Cebu). So far, I've known of three branches: SM City Cebu, Ayala Center Cebu, and J Center Mall.

Anyways, since I graduated already, I thought of giving myself a gift for all that hardwork (naks, nemen!)
So after I went to hang out with my friends, I decided to go to the Etude House branch in
SM City Cebu. It was actually my first time, so I really wasn't familiar with what to buy first and if what I imagined to buy were available there. I had to give it a shot. :)

As I went in the store, I was once again awed by its cute and girly interior.
(So, yes. I blanked out staring for moments.)

And so, (after staring at the cute products and the store's pink and girly interior) I decided to ask the saleslady who was following me around about what products suit me.

[Yes, okay. So, actually I did do a bit of research first. I didn't want to go unprepared. I did a "background check" on what products suit my skin type which is oily(I suggest you guys do that, too.), so I would at least know if I'm buying the right things.]

So as not to bore you guys out, here are the products I got to buy for my first semi-haul in Etude House:

(from L-R: Skin Malgem Fresh; Kissfull Lip Care #1; 
Precious Mineral BB Cream Bright Fit Sand Beige W15; Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Cream)

Skin Malgem: fresh (Minho's choice)

Kissfull Lip Care #1 (Strawberry)

Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Cream

Precious Mineral BB Cream Bright Fit (Sand Beige W15)

Yup, so those are pretty much the items I bought for my first semi-haul at Etude House. And so far, as I've been using these products for a couple of days now, I can say that the price really serves right to its purpose. (plus it's already pretty good considering that these items are the ones from their product lines in their branches in S.Korea.)

oh yeah, I forgot to include. 
They also gave me a free and cute pink bag for my purchase. :) 

(Forgive the messy background and the low quality pictures since I only took them using a 3.15MP camera from my phone.) 

I might be doing more detailed reviews for these products real soon. So just stay tuned for upcoming posts! 

Don't forget to leave comments to let me know what you guys think and what other matters related to Korean pop culture and things under that you want to know about.

I'll do my best to keep this blog updated. :)

update (Feb 20, 2019): This post, as previously stated at the top part, was from the blogsite that I first managed when I was still in High School. It became a memorable post for me as this was also my first haul and product review post in my blog. After this, however, I wasn't able to continue with the individual product reviews (and sort of left the whole page hanging even after using all the ones I bought lol). Despite that, having this post come together during my early years in blogging still became something I wanted to treasure and keep, even after moving to and starting over on another site. There were also no major revisions made to this post in order to keep it the way it actually was when I first posted it. :)

That's all for now.

'Til the next post,
