It's been a while since I last reviewed beauty products. I've been on hiatus for so long and been pregnant and all so I wasn't able to use just any products I wish to try. I always first read the labels and always prefer ditching away those with paraben and other harmful ingredient.
During my first trimester, I wasn't used to into putting products on my body. I just felt tired and lazy. As gross as it may seem, I sometimes don't use shampoo or conditioner on my hair nor use facial wash or soaps rather. Talking about hormonal changes! I actually thought I'll be a neat freak during those times but believe me, that's the time that I just feel not doing anything. Plus the smell of just any product stresses me out! Even the smell of coffee makes me want to throw up.
Everything changed during my second trimester and that's where I started to begin using products again. For my facial wash, I started using the one I kept from Etude House months ago. My sister bought it for me and upon checking the label, it contains rice. Rice has been used in some beauty products, especially in Asian countries as it is know to cleanse and moisturize.
Notice that Korean products has that cover before the product itself. They're very hygienic and this only proves that the product you get is new because nobody surely opened it and dispensed some from it because of the inner covering.
Since what I got is a foam, I tried testing it with a BB cream to see if it can be removed immediately. I'm thinking if I can lather it up without water. Of course I would still use this with water for better cleansing. :)
I admit that my skin has been dry and dirty because of my current pregnancy and good thing I already surpassed the stage where I dreadfully dislike beauty products. Thankful for the little help I got from Etude House Every Month Cleansing Foam. I hope I can recover my skin's glow again.
Yay for me! (。◕‿◕。)
- It has an inner covering for sanitary purposes.
- Cleanses and moisturizes my skin for a couple of hours.
- Lathers really well.
- Lightweight feel.
- No strong scent.
- A little goes a long way!
- Wide range of variety to choose from which will target your skin's problem. Choose from 1-12 (January- December)
Nay for me! (。◕︵◕。)
- It stings the eyes horribly so shut your eyes first.
- The effect isn't permanent when it comes to moisturizing.
Price: P198.00
Bought from: Etude House Eastwood Branch
Size: 100 ml.
Admittedly, my skin right now needs a lot of moisture. I just can't get the courage to post my skin like this! Haha. It was just so dry. I think I need to get my skin's moisture back first before parading my face again in public. LOL
I think I'll be changing my facial foam after I emptied this tube and will try to look for a product that will suit my skin's needs especially now after post pregnancy. I'm eyeing the one from The Body Shop. I'm hoping that it will suit my skin type.
You? What facial wash or foam are you using lately? Share your experience with it!

Parang expensive for 100ml? But I like that it doesn't have a strong scent like other products and that it seems to clean well based on that BB cream photo. I still wouldn't buy it though, since I already found a good one to use :)
ReplyDeleteThis is actually a standard price for facial foams. Others are more expensive than this.
DeleteI suppose the product is good. However, as a health advocate, I always tell people to buy only products that has complete label and one that can be read (language). In the end, users are responsible for their own health and knowing exactly what is being put on skin is a responsibility. :)
ReplyDeleteIt has complete label though. I must admit though that this is not a natural product.
DeleteYes it does, unfortunately, written in English. As more and more people are becoming aware of checking labels, the need for companies to publish labels in English becomes more important. Personally, there is no product that is truly natural. While the active ingredients may be natural (usually extracts), there are other ingredients added as part of the manufacturing process and others for other purposes.
DeleteThink of the basic "ORGANIC" label in the USA. It only means 70% of the content is organic while the rest is not.
Now, I would love to try this! I've been using their Baking Powder Pore Cleansing Foam for months now and I've been inlove with it ever since. Since I'm running low on stocks, I will grab this one on my next shopping trip at Althea :)
ReplyDeleteLoving Althea too. But I don't think they have this in Althea.
DeleteI won't think twice about using skin care products from Etude. I've purchased creams, moisturizers, and other skin care products from them and they never disappoint. I'm definitely going to try this one out.
ReplyDeleteAlways take precaution when using this kind of product considering the fact that you're already in your 2nd semester.
ReplyDeleteBut anyway, congratulations you made it. Your "appetite" has been back reviewing beauty products such as this cleaning foam.
Cleansing foam is not compatible with my skin type, it always cause me to have pimples, irregardless of the brand. But I completely trust Etude and I want to give it a try. :)
ReplyDeleteI have not tried using these kinds of products from Etude House because the only things I buy there are their eyebrow pencil and eyebrow mascara. Haha. It's quite expensive lang for me though. Medyo tipid lang sa budget these days. Lol
ReplyDeletexx, Wandering Ella
Super inexpensive! I'll try that one of these days!
ReplyDeleteGo!
DeleteThis product sounds promising. Although my skin doesnt like cleansing foam, I still would like to try this.
ReplyDeleteSo are you using soap on your face instead?
DeleteI love Etude House! I tried their face powder and sun protect products before. This one looks like I will try soon. :)
ReplyDeleteI love the brand as well.
DeleteIt's important to keep your skin moisturized in order to maintain the elasticity. I know that when you are pregnant you shouldn't use a lot of products, but this looks like a natural one, good to use.
ReplyDeleteI know, that's why I refrained from using products. I don't use this daily and I'm sure this doesn't have paraben.
DeleteI'm an Etude fan and I really like their products specially lipstick. :D
ReplyDeleteI like their masks and BB creams
DeleteI learned something new today! Didnt know rice is being used in some beauty products. Havent tried anything from Etude yet but I think their products are worthy to try.
ReplyDeleteOh yes. Even the rice wash that you usually cook, you can also use that to wash your face. I prefer using the second wash though as it was cleaner than the first.
DeleteAhh pregnancy, it definitely did a number on my face too, especially while I was pregnant and after I gave birth to my son! When I was preggy with my daughter I had the best skin ever but when I was carrying my son, OMG, that's the worst my skin has ever been. :P
ReplyDeleteI've always loved Etude House products and I use their BB cream, eyebrow pencils and lip tints, but I've not tried their skin care line, will definitely check it out the next time I'm in Etude. :)
Good for you! I had the worst skin now but the sonologist said I'm having a girl.
DeleteCongrats on you new baby!
ReplyDeleteEtude has been my trusted brand. I use their BB cream, eyebrow kit and contouring stick. Would try this one too!
For Korean products, Etude was one of the cheaper brand out there.
DeleteLove the review! Thanks for really trying the products out! Would recommend this too with my friends.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
DeleteCleansing foam doesn't suit my skin much!! But, this product sounds good. Thanks much for the detailed review!! :)
ReplyDeleteAaaw , so what cleanser are you using then?
DeleteEtude really offers a lot of products and I love how each of their product since it comes in high quality talaga. It's just that, most of their items are quite pricey but you sure naman na everything is safe to use. I like your review here. Matry nga whenever I get the chance to visit Cebu one day. :)
ReplyDeleteCebu? Why Cebu? Sorry, I don't get it.
DeleteBtw, Etude was one of the cheapest Korean brand over Missha, IOPE, among others. That's why I love going back to them kasi di ko afford masyado magLaneige haha
This product looks good and it's affordable too! I'd love to try this!
ReplyDeleteAvailable at all EH nationwide.
DeletePregnancy dried my skin like crazy as well, and now 9 months postpartum I'm still in the search for the most suitable facial wash for me. Do tell if you have any other suggestions :)
ReplyDeleteYou can try this if you want or any facial wash from Human Heart Nature, The Body Shop, Innisfree, for those are natural and some are organic. Check the label as well.
