A lot of Filipinas love Korean beauty brands. Not only are they of very good quality but these Korean beauty products come in cute, eye-catching packaging and they’re affordable. So it’s pretty good news that one of the world’s well-known Korean cosmetics brands has opened not just one but two (!) branches in Northern Mindanao.
Etude House recently opened their Cagayan de Oro City branches – the first was at Centrio Mall along Corrales Avenue and the second at SM City CDO – to the delight of so many ladies here in Mindanao.
Etude House is a global beauty brand and Etude House Centrio CDO and Etude House SM CDO are just two of their over 550 stores worldwide.
Etude House invited Mindanaoan to check out their new Ayala Centrio Mall store. I was also asked to bring along several of my lady blogger-friends not only from Cagayan de Oro but from Bukidnon and Iligan City as well! Needless to say, we all had a blast. We all felt like we were in a candy store! I mean, who wouldn’t love being at Etude House when you see all these goodies?
Yep, that’s Sandara Park of 2NE1. She’s Etude House’s endorser/ambassador 
See that green tea facial wipes pack down below? That’s now part of my “kikay kit”!
I am a fan of their BB creams! I always bring a tube with me even during my travels. Try the Etude House BB Magic Cream.
Didn’t I say their products come in cute packaging?
Check out some of my favorite Etude House products – the BB creams, the oil-free lotion (I bought a bottle last December and I just love the smell!), the MoistFull and Wonder Pore lines and the really cute blushes and lipsticks. You should also try their very affordable face masks – perfect to use on a lazy, “me” weekend. Etude House CDO also has makeup accessories and tools.
Visit the two Etude House branches in Cagayan de Oro City – at the ground floor of Ayala Centrio Mall and at SM City CDO along Masterson Avenue.
Thank you Etude House for inviting Mindanaoan and her blogger-friends! We will surely be back

I’ve been tweeting about Typhoon Sendong since yesterday, Saturday, December 17, 2011. You can see my Mindanaoan Twitter account here — http://www.twitter.com/mindanaoan
So much have happened ever since I woke up yesterday. Survived strong rains and winds, endured hours of brownout, found out that we didn’t have water supply, found out that our humble house in Cagayan de Oro City also got damaged and that we have no choice but to face business losses. Still, my family and I have so much to be thankful for. All of us are safe. And all of us are alive and able to help out those in need.
If you also want to do your share and help the victims of Typhoon Sendong (International Name: Tropical Storm Washi) in Cagayan de Oro City and Iligan City, Mindanao (where more than 500 persons are feared to have died), please see this list below. You can help in so many ways — you can volunteer, you can share important info, you can donate cash, you can also donate used clothing, food, blankets, mosquito nets, banig, slippers etc.
Please, any kind of help will be most appreciated.
As of December 18, 2011, 6:20 PM, Red Cross said that 497 people have already died because of Typhoon Sendong.
Please, I appeal to all of your generous hearts to help out. Thank you and may the good Lord bless you!
