Ettusais BB Mineral White Cream

I believe it's been nearly a couple of years now since I've put up a review on any foundation, BB cream or any new type of face base product. Considering that my blog used to thrive on base makeup reviews, and the most popular posts on my blog are currently lip products, I find that to be a Copernican shift.  But I have been using this BB cream for a long time now, and I hope its not past its use by date yet because I am finally writing an overdue review on this.

November Favorites

This is my first favorites post! I couldn't do this before since I had the same favorites over and over again. But I decided this time is nice time to put this up, since I have some new stuff I've been over the moon for and rediscovering some old faves.

Ettusais Puru Puru Serum


Price: P1400
Availabilty: Japanichi.com.ph
Content: 47g
Description:
Limited Edition Release
Instant moisture yet feeling that it is not sticky, a moisturizing effect that is sustained for a long period of time. The 5 concentrated beauty ingredients makes it highly effective in moisturizing in one one drop (hyaluronic acid · W collagen, royal jelly, glycerin, moisture keep oil). Can be used on all skin types for day and night.

I've actually had this for quite some time now, late last year I was nuts for Ettusais products. And the moment I saw this was on shelves I pre-ordered it.


It is very intriguing, I mean a serum in a form of a scrub like substance. But it's no scrub, it contains little balls of highly moisturizing ingredients, (give up on the topical collagen ladies, its chemical structure is to big to enter pores). And this is actually my first serum for anti-aging purposes, yeah yeah, I'm too young blah blah, but prevention is better than cure and moisture equals youth. And though I'm oily I find my skin is really thirsty for moisture after washing my face, even with a mild cleanser.

Heads up on this guys, it can be used as a primer since it has that dimethicone feel to your skin, but it's a bit difficult to spread so i mix it with my VMV Oil free moisturizer to make it spread better and melt in better. I use this sparingly since a bit packs quite a punch of moisture. Overall decent product, but the smell might be a bit off setting, but the delivery system is quite niche for a serum.

Might buy again if I find more real need for it, I recommend this for drier skinned ladies who might notice a little or two fine lines creeping up.

Ettusais BB Mineral Cream Review

The award winning Ettusais BB mineral Cream! Got this from an Instagram store who sold her extra tube for P1000 pesos, the closest price I've seen to the original yen price which is 1800 yen, other stores sell this for Php1300-1500 which saddens me.

Price I bought it for: Php1000
