Review : Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base

Hi loves!

I'm currently loving makeup primers/bases right now. They just make my look better in terms of finish and lasting power. Though you have to be careful of which product you use since I believe one has a different effect depending on your foundation/ BB cream you use or even your skin type.

Anyway, I received these two bases from Etude House during their Sweet Recipe Launch and I have to admit, these are really good! I'm in-love with them! I think these are my favorite products from their Sweet Recipe Line!


Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base
This is Php 678.00 each and is available in 3 shades - Mint Choux, Berry Choux and Peach Choux.
Has SPF25 and PA++. A jar carries 25g of the product.

Description from Press Kit:

Allure: Choux cream textured makeup base supplies moist, bright 
coverage for flawlessly soft skin.

Features:

Moist, Creamy Texture (Silicone Elastomer Gel)
Flawless Brightened Coverage
Sebum Control
Mint (Ideal for Acne/Problem Skin)
Berry (Ideal for Pallid Skin)
Peach (Ideal for Darker Tones)



The box it comes with is just too cute! 

The ones I have and will be sharing my thoughts on in this post are the mint choux and peach choux shades.


And the packaging is gorgeous! I don't think I can throw it away when I used up all the product! Though this can be bulky and a bit heavy if you intend on carrying one around in your bag. I do wish they have a spatula since dipping your fingers in the jar isn't quite sanitary.

Mint Choux - For those with redness on the skin usually from acne or some skin irritations.

Peach Choux - Ideal for warm toned skin. 

Both of them differ in scent (mint and peach) but are both sweet! I loooove how they smell like. But no worries for those who do not like scents in their face products, for the fragrance these products have are barely noticeable when applied.

Here are the swatches:

Peach Choux and Mint Choux on my arm

They are very creamy but lightweight. Easy to spread and blend!

Below are pictures of my cheek before and after application (I used Mint Choux):


The redness is gone and my face, brightened! It even covered some of my acne scars!

All the shades have almost the same effect. They offer a bit of coverage, they brighten/whiten the skin, gives a dewy glow, somehow conceal pores for a smoother looking skin especially when a foundation/ BB cream is applied on top. Just be careful on how much product you put since too much can make you look super pale.

It doesn't do much on oil control but I usually wear a foundie that has that, so no biggie for me. These bases help my foundie/ BB cream look better and stay longer without caking! Though the peach and the berry choux can be worn alone (I think the mint one can make you look too pale on its own even in small amounts).

What I LIKE:

Brightening effect
Good coverage for a base
Prolongs makeup
Makes my foundie/BB cream look better and more natural
Has SPF
Dewy Finish
Cute packaging!
Delicious Smell
Creamy and easy to spread on skin
Can be worn alone!
Price is reasonable
Locally available
Available in 3 shades

What I don't like:

It can be quite unsanitary if you just dip your fingers in the jar since it doesn't have a spatula.

Would I purchase this when I run out?
You bet I will! But I guess these two will last me a long while. I surely recommend it to all those who have dull skin who needs an instant radiant finish and extra glow. It really is one of the best makeup bases I've tried so far. :D

Have you tried Etude House's Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base yet?
Which shade do you like the most?
What makeup bases do you use right now?


Cheers!
