Hello November, you have secretly, silently, made your way into my life without a sound. I have been crazy busy the whole of October that I didn’t realise that it has been quietly creeping away. Due to my never-ending deadlines, I have been keeping my makeup fairly simple for the entire month, kinda also experimenting with new things which quickly grew to become my staple!
I shall keep this post short and sweet because I am down with a cold now and I’m feeling really blue.. So, let’s look into my October favourites shall we? đ
Just 8 of these essentials you need in your everyday life if you are not a makeup junkie! I think these 8 products will pretty much get you covered for your everyday makeup if you are looking for a simple, neutral look!

Etude House Wonder Pore Freshner (Toner): Review
It’s time for a review on the Etude House Wonder Pore Freshner (why can’t it be spelt the right way – freshener =.=) after using it twice a day, every day for about 2 weeks or so. I usually test the product out for about 2 weeks (for skincare) before deciding if it works on my skin.
The Wonder Pore Freshner is labelled as an “Ultra Pore Solution, 10-in-1” that boasts of a plethora of skincare benefits:
-
Removes leftover makeup – CHECKED!
-
Lightly acidifies skin to optimal pH 5.5 level
-
Controls sebum – CHECKED!
-
Minimises pores – SOMEWHAT CHECKED!
-
Treats uneven skintone
-
Maintains skin elasticity
-
Hydrates skin
-
Smoothens skin textire
-
Get rids of impurities and dead skin cells – CHECKED!
-
Refreshes and cool the skin – SOMEWHAT CHECKED!
Basically, comparing to the previous formulation, the Wonder Pore Freshner 7-in-1 (see my short comment on it from my old makeup routine), this formula provides more skincare benefits and in my opinion worked a lot better for my skin. Here are the 2 products I received from Etude House Singapore.
