First Impression - Etude House Face Conditioning Cream

Hello Princesses!

Today I'm going to be talking about a semi-interesting face cream - the Etude House Face Conditioning Cream! In all honestly, I don't find face creams particularly interesting and this one seems pretty much just like the rest. However, I was quite intrigued to read that this face cream acts sort of like a makeup primer or "makeup booster"! 

 What Does It Do?

"Description

This is a quick and easy makeup boosting cream that smoothly conditions skin with its light and soft texture for a makeup-ready complexion.
Directions
After applying toner, spread a certain amount of Face Conditioning Cream evenly onto face.
Caution
1. Use only as directed.
2. Avoid storing in high and low temperatures and areas exposed to direct sunlight.
3. Cease use if problems arise.

This cream is super thick, you only need a tiny pea sized amount to cover the face fully, but it's absorbed relatively quick due to the small amount that needs to be applied! Since I'm currently in Taipei and absolutely everything is air conditioned (even though it's winter) my skin has been super dry. I've been using this cream for the past week over the top of my regular skincare (facial oil, serum, moisturizer) and I've found that if I use too much, the cream flakes off in little balls. But if I use juuust enough, it makes my skin look and feel moisturized, and helps my foundation look super healthy! The cream does give a very slight blurring effect to my pores and fine lines, but you have to look pretty close to see that effect!

 Would I Purchase This Product?

Yes, I already have! I saw this face cream in an Etude House store and grabbed it while it was in a cute gift packet. It seems to work really well for me while in Taipei, but I will have to make an updated review once I'm back in New Zealand with a different climate! ^.^
