Etude Put Your Hands Up Deo Stick Review

Bonjour, messieurs et mesdames^^
Today I'm gonna share my review about body care I use in my daily morning routine.

Etude Put Your Hands Up Deo Perfume Stick in Citrus

Price : Rp. 78.000 (around $9) Sounds expensive, eh...

I bought it at Etude counter in Ciputra World Mall Surabaya.

To be honest, I'm hypnotized by it's packaging, it's very cute, isn't it?

Since so far I rarely try any Etude body care, then why don't I give it a shot. I've tried several products from Etude and until now I havent't had any doubt about their quality.

Actually they have another varians of deodorant but I chose this because it is said to have citrus scent.

Here is what it looks like. Cute isn't it?

This is the back label, half of the info written in korean.

Ingredients list:
WATER, PROPYLENE GLYCOL,  GLYCERIN, SODIUM STEARATE, ALUMINUM STARCH OCTENYLSUCCINATE, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, SILICA, HYDROXYPROPYL CYCLODEXTRIN, LAURYL ISOQUINOLINIUM BROMIDE, PSEUDOALTEROMONAS FERMENT EXTRACT, ALOE BARBADENSIS LEAF EXTRACT, ALLANTOIN, POLYQUATERNIUM-37, ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL, GLUCOSE, CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, PORTULACA OLERACEA EXTRACT, GLYCYRRHIZA GLABRA (LICORICE) ROOT EXTRACT, ALUMINUM CHLOROHYDRATE, XANTHAM GUM, DISODIUM EDTA, PHENOXYETHANOL, SODIUM BENZOATE, POTASSIUM SORBATE, FRAGRANCE.

This is the instruction.

Like u see, it has inner cap between outer cap and the product.

U can see the color of the stick, it's 'bony' white. 

At the first I opened the cap, I smelled citrusy scent. The smell is not very strong though. The application is the same as common deo stick. U just have to apply it on ur arm pit.

Honestly, I have a secret. I have an issue with body odor. Average deodorant would not cover me more than 4 hours. (oh, actually I'm very shame, I just tell u my secret)

And my other issue is my arm pit skin can't tolerate many kinds of deodorants.

I ever tried rexona and I got skin irritation. I tried dove, cassablanca, and pixy but none of them suit me.

Before using this, I usually repurchase Cussons Imperial  Deodorant in green varian. The cussons is gentle, long lasting, very mush cheaper, widely available and has nice fresh perfume but it leaves whitish stain in my clothes. This Etude costs me almost 12x the price of cussons (Cussons deodorant only cost around Rp. 6500 ($0.7). But Etude is more in quantity, the amount goes longer, and don't stain my clothes. I think it's worth the price or no, eh....

As far until now, I don't have any problem with it as long as I use it in proper amount. 

Here is what it's looks like from top view

40g product can last me long, it's been almost 4 months when I took these pics and it's still more than half inside : ) I my self would not consider it as pricey^^

Another snap :)

Pros :

- Cute packaging

- Nice smell

- Long lasting power for blocking odor

- did not stain clothes

Cons :

- Some people may find it pricey

- Contains phenoxyethanol (preservative)

Repurchase? Maybe. I want to try the other varian from Etude^^

What's ur favourite deodorant? Have something u can suggest me? I'd like to know what's ur opinion^^
