L.O.V. Makeup - Fall Edition
Wednesday, September 13, 2017
Živjo punce.
Danes bom govorila o ličilih znamke, katere na blogu še nisem omenjala. To pa zato, ker nisem še ničesar preizkusila. Gre za znamko iz hiše Cosnova (pod okriljem imajo tudi Catrice in Essence) z bolj luksuznimi izdelki (in embalažami) ter malce dražjimi, a še vedno zelo dostopnimi ličili.
Hi girls.
Today I'll talk about a few products from a new-to-me brand. It's part of Cosnova company (which includes Catrice and Essence) and their line is all about more luxurious packaging and higher quality makeup with affordable prices.
Highlighting Drops 010 - 10,99€
Tole je zanimiv izdelek saj v drogerijah redkeje srečamo tekoče osvetljevalce. L.O.V. je tegale zapakiral v ozko embalažo s priročno pipeto. Izgleda tudi luksuzno (in težko), čeprav imam sama probleme pri takšnih izdelkih, ker moreš pipeto res počasi spravit nazaj, da se izdelek ne razlije naokrog. Tekstura je ravno dovolj tekoča. Osvetljevalec pa lahko vmešate v tekoči puder ali ga uporabite samostojno na želenih predelih. Ker imam sicer precej svetlo polt, mi ta svetel, skoraj bel odtenek z roza podtonom zelo ustreza in je opazen. Vsebuje pa tudi opazne bleščice, tako da ne daje samo sijaja, ki bi se zlil s kožo. Zato ta izdelek morda ni za tiste, ki imajo rade nežen, sijoč videz, ki izgleda zelo naravno. Mene te bleščice malce motijo, ker znajo poudariti povečane pore ter nepravilnosti, pa vendar v zmerni količini izgleda lepo na licih ter vekah.
It's rare to see a liquid highlighter in drugstores and this one is a bit more special. It comes in a pipette style packaging which is weighty and looks gorgeous. Pipette is not my favorite since you can spill a product out. The texture of the product is nice, liquid but not too much and you can easily apply it. You can mix it in with a foundation or just use it separately. Because I'm quite pale, this icy white shade with a hint of pink just suits me. Though if you're looking for just a glow, this one might not be for you as it contains small visible glitter. I'm not a fan of them, however in a moderate way, it can look very pretty on the cheeks and eyelids.
Magnetic Loose Eyeshadow - 570 Cosmic Gravity - 9,99€
To senčilo je definitivno zanimivo saj so prosti pigmenti bili namagneteni. Pri čemer naj bi se senčilo bolje oprijelo vek ter bilo dolgo obstojno in intenzivno. Senčilo pa ima žametno teksturo. Za bolj metalik/moker videz, se lahko senčilo nanese tudi z mokrim čopičem.
Ugotovila sem, da je najboljše nanašanje s tapkanjem in ne zabrisovanjem, saj pri tem senčilo izgubi veliko sijaja in ni tako pigmentirano. Tako bi ga sama uporabila pri videzu bolj na sredini veke, za dramatičen učinek. Lahko se uporablja tudi na moker način, pri čemer naj bo čopič rahlo moker, saj se senčilo z vodo dobesedno stopi in je zelo tekoče. Pusti pa učinek "folije" in moreš malce počakat, da se posuši. Na žalost so moje veke bolj mastne in tudi ob uporabi podlage za senčila, se ob obeh nanosih senčilo "odtisne" na vrh veke. Vsekakor pa je zanimiv učinek in če nosite dramatičen make-up ali potrebujete nekaj za ekstra priložnost, ga je morda vredno preizkusit.
This is an interesting eyeshadow which is very similar to the one MAC brought out. It's magnetized, so that it would be more long lasting and would hold up on the eyelids for longer. And it has an interesting, velvet texture which is very fun to look at.
While playing with it, I found tapping it on with a finger worked best because when you try to blend it, it just looses that shine. If that's not metallic enough for you, you can use it with a wet brush which results in foil effect and is very dramatic. Though you have to wait for it to dry. Sadly my eyelids are a bit on the oily side and this eyeshadow just tends to transfer up onto my upper eyelid.
It's a very innovative product and if you want to achieve ultimate party look, it might definitely be worth a try.

Liquid Matte Lipstick - 700 Daring Confession - 8,99€
"Tekoča šminka s penasto teksturo. Pol-matt šminka."
Sprva sem pri šminki opazila aplikator, saj je bolj "zašiljen" ter omogoča, da svoje ustnice res lepo očrtam. Tekstura je lahkotna in ne "lepljiva". Prekrivnost pa je dobra ter je dovolj tudi nanos enega sloja. Šminka se ne posuši popolnoma (saj je pol-matt), kar me sicer moti, saj hitro postanem žejna in si tako še hitreje uničim nanos. Tako za moje potrebe ni dovolj obstojna. Odvisno je kakšne šminke so Vam všeč. Sama pa vem, da če uporabljam tekočo šminko, od nje želim da se popolnoma posuši. Hkrati pa ni napačna in je prijetna na ustnicah ter jih čisto malo izsuši.
Another take on a liquid lipstick. This one is half-matt. And first thing I've noticed is a different, more pointy applicator which is really helpful when lining my already pointy lips. It has a good coverage, so you only need one layer. Texture is light (moussy) and not sticky. Though because of being half-matt it never dries down completely, so it's not transfer-proof. This is why I don't particularly like it, since I am thirsty all the time and it just wears off quickly on me. It just depends on what you like in a lipstick. Besides that, it's very comfortable on the lips and it's minimum drying.
