Etude House Beauty Shot Face Blur

Blur creams are trending right now in the beauty industry! Who wouldn't love snapping that perfect selfie without having to retouch your photo? Blur creams are a notch higher than your regular makeup primer/base; they do not just prolong your makeup wear, but also makes your skin look really flawless when photographed!

Etude House Beauty Shot Face Blur
Etude House Beauty Shot Face Blur is a primer with a lightweight formula that makes your makeup last longer and holds your makeup in place even in the summer heat. Use Beauty Shot Face Blur and finish with powder for that light summer look ready for photos!
Beauty Shot Face Blur has a 3-in-1 multi-filter effect just like on camera apps:
  • Skin texture correction – Smooths and softens the skin texture
  • Pore & bump correction – Blurs uneven skin, minimizes pores and bumps
  • Skin tone correction – Brightens dull skin tone
Tip: Use Beauty Shot Face Blur and set with powder and have some summer fun!

The packaging of this primer is quite simple compared to previous Etude House releases. However, I like it because of its pump applicator. Hygienic, easy dispensing wins in my book.

Baby Pixel Powder (Blur Powder) and Cover Powder compounds give 3-in-1 multi-filter effect - like adjusting light on skin.
  • Baby Pixel Powder: Super fine particles make skin smooth and soft while covering pores and bumps flawlessly.
  • Cover Powder: Hide skin imperfections such as blemishes via diffused reflection.
While other primers make use of silicone gel, Beauty Shot Face Blur makes use of "Airy Skin Powder" to give lightweight and comfortable wear for long time. 

It comes in a pinkish tone, which really does remind me of Etude House Sweet Recipe Baby Choux Base in #02 Berry Choux, only this one has a less fragrance and more liquid texture. The Sweet Recipe Baby Choux base is more creamy and hydrating, while the Beauty Shot Face Blur works better for oily skin. Beauty Shot Face Blur comes in only 1 shade, and those with deeper skin tones may find this too light.

This primer instantly reduced my skin's redness, making it look more even and radiant. It also reduced the appearance of pores and made my skin look smoother. However, wearing it alone didn't make a huge difference. Its effect is quite subtle and not really noticeable in person. I layered on a separate face base (mine's liquid foundation, but you may also use powder or BB cream) over it to see its camera-friendly effects. It really does photograph well!

As for its makeup extending effect, I wore this primer and a BB cream over it, no powder so I'd see how well it performed. In fairness, only my nose oiled up a bit by lunch time, so I blotted it out with tissue, and my makeup stayed put for the rest of the day.


I shared 2 FOTDs last time wearing Etude House's new Super Tint Balms, and I wore the Beauty Shot Face Blur as base here, no retouch!

  2. Cool! There are times when I only use base this summer because everything just melts off my face -.- I try to keep it light while still covering my redness :) This looks good though it doesn't do much alone :D
