Etude House Every Month Cleansing Foam

Have you seen these new little babies around? :) 

Etude House introduces not 1 but 12 new facial cleansers! Termed as Every Month Cleansing Foam, it has 12 different types of facial cleansers for you to use a new set every month according to how the weather or your skin condition changes. Singapore might not have the luxury of having four seasons or drastic weather changes (okay we sorta do rain/shine haha), but we can adapt it to how our skin feels at different periods during the month (in need of moisture, calm relief etc).



A mild cleansing foam that washes away all impurities. Each cleansing foam has a different texture and of course different key ingredients to suit your needs. Gently massage over face with enough foam of this cleanser and rinse it thoroughly with lukewarm water, leaving your face especially clean & refreshed.

It also comes in a compact size of 100ml, which means it's GREAT for travelling junkies because it fits right into the cabin luggage (if you're travelling light), without all the hassle of squeezing it into smaller jars to bring along. I've always been fretting about my skincare when I travel, and now, no more with such cute compact sizes! Another good reason why it'll be good for frequent travellers, is because of the varying ingredients in each cleanser. If you travel to a country with a colder climate, you can chose to bring along something that's a little more moisturising to help your skin combat the dryness.


The Every Month Cleansing Foam I've gotten are:
1 - Avocado & Butter (Deep moisturizing)
Skin Types: Exhausted by cold wind, Dry skin

2 - Pomegranate & Berry (Firming)
Skin Types: Skin with loss of elasticity

3 - Apple & Tomato (Tone clarifying)
Skin Types: Dull and discolorated skin

5 - Green Tea (Fresh & clean)
Skin Types: Skin with excessive sebum 

7 - Aloe Vera (Soothing relief)
Skin Types: Irritated Skin 



Here's a little swatch I did with the cleansers. 
1, 3 are of a mild and moist pearl cream. 
5 is of a fresh cream texture. 
2 & 7 are of a moist gel texture.

There are four different textures in this series too!
I've also done a little test to see how much make-up it can remove. Though it's not touted as a 2 in 1 cleanser, it'll be good to see how much make-up it can remove! It'll also assure us that all our make-up will be completely removed by the time we are done with our make-up remover, and the cleansing step!


Here, I have on basic make-up that women would wear on a day-to-day basis. Hehe, okay maybe not all at one go, but here's what you'll have on if you have a full face of make-up. From top to bottom: Foundation, Concealer, Waterproof Eyeliner, Lipstick, Eyeshadow.


I applied 5 - Green Tea to the concoction of make-up on my hand. 5 - Green Tea was also the one that I've started using first to suit my skin's needs. It's gotten rather bad after I got back from my recent holiday *BOO* :(

Mix it all up and add a little water to make it foam!


TA-DAH. Here's the end result! Admittedly I was quite heavy handed and accidentally applied quite a bit more foundation & concealer to my hand. But all that's left on my hand is the imprint of the waterproof eyeliner, which you should really try to remove with your make-up remover first, and a few faint splotches of the concealer! Successfully removed 95% of my makeup with just the cleanser!

Always always double cleanse to make sure your face is free of make-up before bed! Unless of course your cleanser is a 2 in 1 step, but I always like to be sure. Better safe than sorry ;)
