Whoah! A review?! Yes, a review. However, I prefer not to call it a review. I call it the ‘Beauty Bag’. Whatever I pick from the Beauty Bag is indeed going to be reviewed. So today, we have the Etude House Total Age Repair Effective Two-Way Cake SPF48 PA++. I don’t think it is popular nowadays since BB cushions are likely to be bought than a two-way cake foundation. I bought it because I wanted a setting powder (and also something nice in the bag). To be honest, I’m not a fan of two-way cake foundation. You’d be wondering why I bought this. I’ve explained. So let’s get into this review.

Personally, I like it. It looks nice (in my eyes). It looks like a typical BB cushion packaging - bulky. It’s light, so I wouldn’t mind stuffing it in my bag. However its bulkiness is a turn-off. I wish they would have made it slimmer. The mirror is wonderful – Big mirror. Can a girl not complain about mirrors? The product also comes with a sponge. I didn’t display the sponge in the picture because it was too grotesque for me to show you. Usually bloggers would take a picture of the product before using it. I, however, used the product first.

I was told that this powder foundation could help with my dry skin. It is an anti-aging powder foundation. I’ve got shade #2 Natural Beige. It contains 12g of product. I can’t remember the price because I bought it in Korea. I remember the first time I tried it; I used it as a powder foundation. It looked powdery on me because I have dry skin. Then I splashed a bit of water to my face and the foundation sunk in. Perfect! That was winter in Korea. I found a way to make it look as natural as possible. I don’t like to cake up my face. Who does? I like to apply it lightly. Coverage is medium to full coverage. Before applying the product by itself, I make sure I have a base. Primers are important! You know how your skin is like a sponge and it absorbs anything you put on? Yes, put on a base! Then conceal whatever needs to be concealed. And place the powder foundation on top. You can leave it as it is or even sprits a bit of water to let it sink in. I like to leave it as it is because of the weather condition I live with – the tropical weather. The lasting power of this two-way cake foundation last for a good 3-5 hours or so for me before I have to touch up. It is also a matte finish, reduces shine and evens out the skin tone. I personally do not like a matte look. My dry skin makes any dewy foundation look matte.

As long as I’ve used this product, I’ve never had any breakout. This is probably because I would triple cleanse my face. I would make sure nothing is in the pores.

That’s all for today! Bye!
