Review: Etude House I'm Blooming Sebum Control Mist ~
I am so incredibly sorry that I have not been updating for months now... and I guess there is no use for excuses but I have been busy with coursework and preparing for interviews for universities ~ But I will try my best and blog the most I can during the Christmas holidays ^^ ~ some of the products I have promised to do reviews unfortunately I have already used them up so I can not show you them in a review, however I can still tell you if I like them or not if you are curious about them
One of the products that I have probably been using consistently is the Etude House I'm Blooming Sebum Control Mist ~ as I have been using it to set my makeup every time I go to college so I don't end up looking like a greaseball
I must say my skin type has changed from the last time I posted, it is more normal-combination now with dry flakes here and there so this mist doesn't exactly provide what I need, however, because I wear quite dewy foundations on a daily basis I think this does come in handy for people with combination skin and doesn't want their T-zone to look like a oily mess by the end of the day
Honestly though, I only picked this up because it said 'sebum control', I have always been curious to try out the skindinavia or the urban decay makeup setting sprays but they are too expensive for my budget and I would have to order them online as I don't have a urban decay counter near me, so I can't compare how this is compared to it
- This sebum control mist thoroughly hydrates thirsty skin while controlling oil and shine, providing soft powdery skin.
- With ingredients that strengthen skin's natural vitality, this mist helps maintain fresh, blooming, healthy skin.
- Contains 95.9% of early summer green tea extract (Camellia Sinensis Leaf Extract) that balances out skin's moisture level for a moist inside with a soft powdery outside.
- Etude House

Overall comments:
For the price you are paying for, it is quite a good face mist. However, I definitely don't think it's the best. The scent of this product is very light and subtle which I like as I don't want to feel like I am applying a fine mist of perfume all over my face... who would want that right?
But the only problem with this product is what it claims to do... it says it's 'sebum controlling' though I find that the sebum controlling for even my combination skin now is lacking. Please do bare in mind I usually only spray this onto my skin probably maximum twice a day which is right after I finished applying my makeup and once in college when I feel like it. In the UK not many people use face mists often or well at least not my college friends so when I whip this out and spray it, they all think I'm some crazy lady XD imagine if I did that on the bus, train or anywhere else in public ~ If I applied this more frequently it might have worked better?
HOWEVER, even though this isn't the best oil controlling product ever, funnily I do fine it works to make my make-up last longer (base make-up wise) than if I was to not use it at all. Usually I wear makeup for around 10 hours in college and by that time my makeup has started to break down and melt off but with this it actually doesn't make my foundation break down into parts as much which is weird because even though it keeps my make-up in place, I would still get oily around some other places... :/ strange huh?
Furthermore, another con I don't like about this is that it doesn't come in a smaller bottle, I'm not sure if you can buy a little spray bottle seperately in stores like they do for the wonder pore freshener because I certainly didn't notice it, but I usually use the free mini travel spray that I got when I bought the skin malgem set :) which is much more convenient than bringing the whole big bottle around with you in your handbag XD ~
Would I Repurchase: No, I would probably try other brands and compare
Take care ~ ♥
