Etude House Tint My Brows Gel Review

Anyeong~

Today review is for The Etude House Tint My Brows Gel,

Product Profile
Product Name: Etude House Tint My Brows Gel
Origin: S. Korea
Content: 4.5g
Price: MYR19 
Available: Etude House
Function: Brow Tint







What it is
New-concept eyebrow gel tint that makes eyebrow makeup last longer after removing the tint.

How to apply
1) After trimming the eyebrows without applying skincare product or makeup, apply a generous amount according to the desired shape of the eyebrow. (Apply a liberal amount to remove the pack easily.)
2) Dry for at least 2 hours. For stronger coloration, apply before going to bed at night and remove the next morning.
3) After drying completely, remove slowly starting from the tail of the eyebrow. (Do not remove the pack forcibly since it may pull out the eyebrow.)
4) Do not use a cleansing product (product with detergent) or apply force on the eyebrow area within 24 hours of using the product.

I tested it on my hand:

The color graduation: 
Freshly applied > After 2 hours > When rub viciously the color came off and turned to very light brown

My thoughts:
Last for about four days. Can be removed easily if you wash/rub it hard with soap. The color that I used in this reviewed is Grey Brown #3, in the first day the color appear dark grey, on day three the color appear lighter brownish which is better and more natural. I will buy other color next time. Overall quite good product with affordable price. The scent a bit strong though.

Chun Chui He in Malaysia?

Anyeong~

Chun Chui He just officially debut in Malaysia through 7-11 a week ago. Last year they enter Singapore through 7-11 as well, and as it is in Singapore 7-11 in Malaysia sold out of the Chun Chui He in the first day of launching. Just three flavor available in 7-11 Malaysia at the moment namely Latte Milk Tea, Milk Tea and Earl Grey Milk Tea with promotion price of RM 8.95 (normal price RM 9.50) is until 31 August 2017.


What the hype all about? This milk tea famous in Taiwan and usually tourist buy back as souvenir. Happened to have the opportunity to try this famous drink and the taste? The original milk tea tasted not too sweet, has a hint of green tea powder and pleasant to drink, but the only odd thing it also smell like plastic bottle - is it due to the plastic bottle packing or is it the smell is originally like that? At least it tasted good.



Check out the ingredients

On August 2016, the Singapore authority AVA issued a statement recalling Chun Chui He milk tea for using a non-permitted food additive – L-theanine, it returned to store shelves in Singapore on December 2016 with approved food additive.



The Rose Honey Milk Tea just launched on 20 May 2017, a date that rhymes with “I love you” in Mandarin.
