I feel that it has been ages since I posted here, well there was a lot of adjusting I needed to do at my new job, I currently work as a hospital pharmacist at a hospital 14 km away from me! And to be honest the commute takes out more of me than the actual job. But I work for the MONEY baby, so I'll get through this! But anyhow, I have gotten a few new things, my previously ordered products from march are to arrive next week and I will be posting about that as well as my favorite new sunscreen base which I am torn between this and that. And on to the review and away with the rambling.
Price: P898 (Bought it for 850 since I used up all my points)
Description:
This lightweight cream provides multi-blurring effects for instantly refined and smooth skin. Skin’s texture is smoothed; pores minimized and complexion brightened.
Filters Filters Filters! As much I want to hashtag NOfilter on my selfies outside of my blog (selfies in itself is a rare occasion) I admit that even with makeup I need a little brightening and smoothening. Call it the "perfectionarcicissm" of our generation. We'll never get enough Camera360, VSCOCam and Skinny Apps in our lifetime, we'll always want to look better instantly even just for that one photo. But of course I'd want to take that filtered face outside the square frame and into reality, so that's where blur cream comes in, though truth be told this is not my first blur cream, but I'll do a comparisons post next time.
I am no stranger to Etude House bases, I have liked their Choux cream base, which felt like velvet cream on skin but could get a bit heavy when you need to put on liquid foundation, concealer and setting powder, I am always infatuated with their concepts. But I first found out about this blur cream with this quirky little ad:
And this very convincing How to video from Hyo-young from InsiteTV
So I was sold, I bought a bottle (which turned out to be the last on in stock from the store I bought it from). It was cheaper compared to other blur creams available in the local market (Happy Skin and The Body shop) And I am tempted to get the Happy Skin one so I can do comparisons as I already have the Body Shop one.

The cream is a tolerably fragrant lightweight white runny cream with not visible shimmer or glitter. It blends easily into skin and melts in to give you "filtered" bright and smooth skin. Dare I say I can go out wearing only this with no foundation needed! (If your skin is looking clear) It can give a blurring effect on pores and slight blemishes but not on full blown red acne which will need some help from a good concealer on top. But if you're a true Etude House Junkie, the consistency is like the Baby Choux base meets their Nymph Aura Volumer.
