Etude House Lock'n Summer Collection ♡ 2014

Etude House have released a summer collection for 2014 called "Lock'n Summer". I first came across a preview of this collection on Marxie's blog and let's just say the packaging is not that appealing to me, I wish they have came out with a more kawaii packaging.

Despite the boring packagings, I still end up with five of their products from the Lock'n Summer collection. The whole cushion form theme of the collection is what really caught my eyes. ^-^

The Lock'n Summer collection contains six products which includes two Lock'n Summer Precious Mineral Proof Any Cushions, six Lock'n Summer Proof 10 Cushion Lock'n Liner, two Lock'n Summer Cushion Blusher, one Lock'n Summer Lash Perm Proof Shockcara, five Lock'n Summer Color Lips Fit and a Lock'n Summer Face Conditioning Fixer.

The Ice Shot Rapid Cooling Band shown in the above picture is not part of the Etude House Lock'n Summer collection, I just bought it cause it goes with the summer theme and I thought it's cool cause I have never seen anything like this lol.

P.S It's winter in New Zealand at the moment and it's freeeeeezing ~ blurrrr ~

I have seen so many great reviews about these any cushion pacts and I have been wanting to try them for a long time, I finally gave myself a good excuse to own one of these hehe. ^-^ The Etude House Lock'n Summer Precious Mineral Proof Any Cushion <-- *gosh ~ such long name* controls oils and it has SPF50+ PA+++. There are two color choices to choose from: N02 Light Beige and W13 Natural Beige.

I have purchased the color W13 Natural Beige and it matched perfectly with my NC25 skin tone.

Phew ~ can someone explains why are all these products name so long?! Hahah ~ This was one of the products from Marxie's preview post that really caught my eyes! Ummm hello?! Cushion style eyeliners?! I have never seen anything like this before! The Lock'n Summer Proof 10 Cushion Lock'n Liner comes with five colors to choose from: BK801 Black, BR401 Brown, RD301 Red, BL601 Blue and PP501 Purple.

When I first purchased this, I have placed an order for the shade BK801 Black; but a day later I got an email saying it's sold out, well almost everywhere cause I checked eBay and non was available, so I had to get the shade BL601 Blue instead. Not bad ~ Not bad ~ Blue looks gorgeous on with brown eyes, so I am excited to try this. The Lock'n Liner also includes a small angle shape eyeliner brush.

Etude House Lock'n Summer Color Lips Fit

I guess lipsticks are not suitable for summer wear? That's why there's only these lip tints available from the Lock'n Summer collection. Etude House pretty much changed the packaging of the original color lips fit range and call it 'new' just for the summer 2014. Lol ~ *Oh I don't know why I find everything so funny today,  I never seem to lol that much in one post*.

I have never tried the Etude House Color Lips Fit range, so the changing of the packaging etc don't really effect me. I am not fuss about it. ^-^ After all, I do own a few lip tints that are all in the same shades.

There are five shades to choose from in the Lock'n Summer Color Lips Fit range: PP501 Berry, OR203 Orange, PK004 Hot Pink, OR204 Tangerine and OR205 Coral. I have been loving coral-ish orangey shades and I picked up OR205 Coral, it's a bright coral, almost orange shade.

Etude House Lock'n Summer Lash Perm Proof Shockcara

Etude House Lock'n Summer Lash Perm Proof Shockcara

I am not one who wear a lot of mascaras or even collector of them, I always get very scared that after I purchase an expensive mascara, it ends up not working for me then it's like money down the drain lol! I have tried almost all mascaras from drugstore to highend to find only Maybelline's falsies range works for my Asian eyelashes, you know those with super straight and down pointing eyelashes?!

I kind of hesitated a bit when I place my order, I wasn't sure if it's going to work for me and I have yet to try so I still am not sure if it works or not? Etude House claims the Lock'n Summer Lash Perm Proof Shockcara won't smudge, it's super waterproof and it will last a long time.

The promo pictures shows it features a 'motor blue brush', my one is in black... Could that be because it's all covered in black mascaras? Hmmm...

Etude House Lock'n Summer Cushion Blusher

Doesn't this look like one of those cushion ink pad thing being used in the office or at the police station for finger prints?! LOL! Well not that I have ever been to a police station, but I would imagined that's what they used to get a criminals finger prints, except not in a pink or coral color haha ~

There are two color selections for the Etude House Lock'n Summer Cushion Blusher: PK001 Pink and OR201 Coral. Each cushion blusher comes in a little pot with an air puff. I bought the pink one and looking from the pot it's a gorgeous hot pink shade, but when I tried swatching on skin, it's like barely-there! For someone who is heavy handed when it comes to applying blushes, I think this would be a great blusher for me.

Etude House Ice Shot Rapid Cooling Band

This is not part of the Etude House Lock'n Summer collection. As I said in the beginning of this post, I bought this cause I have never seen anything like this before, so I bought it cause it's cool stuff. 

Whether in summer or in winter, I always get headaches when I feel extremely hot and I would automatically think "oh no, I have a fever" when I don't really ~ I would then use a damp towel and pat on my forehead for a refreshing feel. This is one of the reasons I bought the Etude House Ice Shot Rapid Cooling Band, it can be used on your arms on really hot days, pat on your forehead, cool your sweaty neck, put it on your nose, a swelling finger and/or a burning cheek.

I have tested this out over the weekend and if you live in Auckland you'd know how shit the weather was, *oops* excuse the language! It was freeeeezing over the weekend but I was very curious and wanted to know how the Ice Shot Rapid Cooling Band works. So I sprayed a little on my inner arm and I could instantly felt the freeze ~ like when you get a brain freeze.

Anyway, did you pick up anything from the Etude House Lock'n Summer Collection? If not and you're wanting to, you can purchase these from beautynetkorea or f2plus1 on eBay. ^-^ It's pretty much run by the same company. 

Reviews of the individual products from the Lock'n Summer collection is coming soon :) I am most excited to review the Precious Mineral Proof Any Cushion! What about you? Which of these products I have shown above you would like to see a review first? Drop me a comment below!
