Etude House Face Blur
Hey everyone! It's been forever since my last post, but I'm glad to be back! This time I have the Etude House Face Blur which is supposed to "photoshop" your face in real life!

This costs about $15 depending on where you purchase it and contains 35 g. I first saw this product in an insiteTV video on YouTube and it looked really interesting! I bought it when it came out so I've been trying it out for a few months now.
It claims to have 3 in 1 multi-blur technology that will smooth the skin, hide pores, and even out the skin tone. Let's see if it lives up to those claims!
Packaging:
It has a thick, plastic packaging with a nice pump. The pump is pretty easy to control which makes it easy to dispense the desired amount to your face. The cap also stays relatively clean unlike the Etude House Cotton Fit BB Cream cap. One con of this packaging is that you can't tell how much you have left though.
Consistency/Formula:
I didn't swatch this because I thought it was pointless to swatch a primer... It has a light peach color and the consistency is liquidy but not super runny. It's a lot thinner than the Etude House Conditioning Cream. I would say the consistency is slightly lighter than a BB cream. It feels weightless on the skin and blends fairly easily.
This product does brighten up the skin because of it's light peach color so if you have really tan skin this might look unnatural on you. Then again you'll probably be applying a base product on over this so it shouldn't be that much of an issue.
It doesn't cover your pores 100% but then again it would take a miracle product to do that. It slightly conceals your pores so if you have huge pores this might not work for you. I would say that it does even the skin tone due to it's brightening properties. If you have a fair skintone with minimal skin issues, you could even use this as your only base product. That being said it will not cover acne or scarring on the face.
It doesn't really affect the longevity of foundations or BB creams but it doesn't claim to so I don't expect it to.

Pros:
- brightens up the face
- contains SPF 15
- slight baby powder/floral scent
- light consistency perfect for summer
- doesn't accentuate dry patches
Cons:
- doesn't completely cover pores
- can't tell how much product you have left
- might not work well for all skin tones
Final Thoughts:
I would recommend this product to people looking for a brightening primer. That being said if you want a primer with oil control or something to increase the longevity of foundation, this isn't going to be the one for you. Also, if you need hardcore pore coverage, this isn't going to work any miracles for you. I don't think I will repurchase this product because it wasn't really a "photoshop" for the face like it claims. It has decent affects but it wasn't mind blowing.
