Collection: ETUDE HOUSE

The Dear Darling Water Tint became a K-beauty classic for two reasons: the watercolor-style juicy finish (different from traditional lip glosses or matte lipsticks) and the long-lasting pigmented stain that doesn't dry out lips. The watery formula glides on, dries down to a soft semi-matte finish with a popsicle-style sheen, and the pigment can last 6–8 hours through eating and drinking. Available in multiple shades (Cherry, Peach, Orange, Berry, etc.), it's a go-to for users wanting a 'I bit my lip' natural-looking flush of colour.

The Moistfull Collagen line is one of ETUDE HOUSE's longest-running and best-loved ranges — built around hydrolysed marine collagen and baobab tree extract. The line includes a toner, emulsion, cream, eye cream and sleeping mask designed to plump dehydrated skin and visibly improve elasticity. The Eye Cream is especially popular for users in their 20s and 30s wanting an entry-level firming eye treatment that hydrates without feeling heavy. Use morning and evening, pat gently around the orbital bone (not directly on the lid).

The Baking Powder BB Deep Cleansing Foam is formulated specifically to remove BB cream, foundation and stubborn makeup residue that regular cleansers can leave behind. The baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) micro-particles gently exfoliate and lift pore-clogging makeup, while the foaming formula deep-cleans without harsh stripping. Use it as the second cleanse in a double-cleanse routine (after an oil cleanser), focusing on areas where heavy makeup tends to settle — around the nose, jaw and hairline. Ideal for combination, oily and BB-cream-loving skin.

Yes — the Sunprise Mild Airy Finish Sun Milk is formulated with a lightweight, watery texture that absorbs quickly without heavy white cast or stickiness. The 'airy finish' refers to the soft matte effect, making it suitable under makeup for combination and oily skin in humid UAE/GCC weather. Reapply every 2 hours when outdoors. For dry skin or air-conditioned days, layer over a hydrating serum or moisturiser. Pair with the Sunprise Mild Watery Light or Daily for variant options based on skin type.
