Selfies are so common these days with all the smart phones coming out with smarter features and better cameras, not to mention all the social media platforms for people to showcase their pretty faces. And you know, even Oxford Dictionary announced "selfie" as their international word of the year in 2013!
I love browsing through instagram and looking at my friends' selfies. But I really love photos that are sharp and clear, not photos that are so overly filtered to smooth the skin. The photos became so blur and all the details in the photos are lost. That's quite sad right? Sometimes, in order for the skin to look flawless, the photos became so overexposed that I can't even find the nose.
Blurring a photo gives the subject a more flawless skin. How about not blurring the photo, but blur your skin physically? Your skin looks good in real life, and there is no need to filter and blur out your selfies! Possible?
Etude House has provided all ladies (and all gentlemen!) with a solution for the perfect selfie... Introducing Etude House Beauty Shot Face Blur. It is a primer designed to be use after skincare and before makeup. It is like a real-life Photoshop button that creates a soft focus on your face... Haha...
Key Product Characteristics:
1) Lightweight formula
- Consist of the Airy Skin Powder to allow skin to breathe without any heavy feeling
2) Soften and smooth skin texture
- Blurs out bumps or enlarged pores and brightens complexion
3) Sebum control
- Controls production of sebum for long-lasting satin-smooth skin
Apply Beauty Shot Face Blur after skin care.
Can you see the difference in left and right side of my face? My left side is definitely brighter and more radiant. I even feel that just applying this primer is sufficient for light makeup days. I can skip BB cream or foundation already. (Photo taken under natural lighting)
Start by dispensing your desired amount and apply in a thin, even layer across your face. Use your fingertips to apply product in a circular motion, and lightly press to adhere. Next, apply an extra-thin layer on any concern areas such as enlarged pores, bumps, or fine lines.
After applying Beauty Shot Face Blur, put on your BB cream or foundation, followed by your usual makeup routine.
I am using Etude House Stay Up Foundation In Ivory for the look I'm creating.
I love the effect of Beauty Shot Face Blur! My skin looks so smooth and flawless. I went out after for around 9 hours after that and I realized that it is a very good makeup primer too. My makeup lasted through the day.
My face is always oily but with the usage of Beauty Shot Face Blur, sebum production is much reduced. There is still oil and I still use tissue to dab the oil and reduce the shine on my face.
But it is very much reduced as compared to the past. It is also lightweight and it isn't cakey too. Highly recommended! And furthermore, priced at $27.90, it is very affordable!
