Catrice & Essence Fall/Winter 2018

Saturday, September 08, 2018

Hi girls.
I cannot believe that it's almost the end of summer. And with that come new fall/winter launches. Essence and Catrice always make sure to provide some new interesting products while they remove some of their old items twice a year.

Živjo punce.
Poletje se počasi poslavlja in s tem sledijo jesenske novosti. Essence in Catrice dvakrat letno odstranijo nekaj svojih izdelkov iz prodaje, ter dodajo zanimive novosti. Nekaj sem jih tudi sama testirala in morem reči, da so zanimive...




Catrice Prime and Fine Poreless Blur Primer
This is your standard silicon based primer for blurring the skin. Though I think the texture is lighter that most similar primers. It blurs the skin and mattifies a bit. Foundation glides on easily and there is no difference in application. I think it's a nice primer, though nothing special.

Ta primer oziroma podlaga za ličila je precej standardna saj ima silikonski občutek ter zmanjša videz por. Hkrati pa se mi zdi, da je tekstura vseeno lažja ter se lepše razporedi po koži. Zamegli ter malo matira obraz, tekoča podlaga pa nato lepše zdrsne po koži vendar se nanaša enako lepo. Primer je sicer vredu, vendar se mi ne zdi tako poseben in ga v svoji rutini ne pogrešam. 


Catrice Light Correcting Serum Primer - 030 Morning glow
This primer has a cool toned pink color to it and can be used alone or under makeup. Though I figured I prefer to use it over makeup as an actual liquid highlighter. The color isn't my favorite since this summer I'm all about those gold highlighters that look like your skin but shinier. But I'm sure I will use it more in the upcoming fall and winter time. This one is very cool toned and shiny but blends into the skin very quickly. It doesn't look shimmery or cakey which is great. It comes with a pump, so it's very handy to use.

 Še en "primer", ki pa je malce bolj zanimiv. Je namenjen osvetljevanju kože ter ji podari svež videz. Ta izdelek je sicer že na voljo v drugih odtenkih, ta pa je nov. Je hladne roza barve in se lahko uporabi pod ali nad ličili. Sicer ga pa jaz najraje uporabim nad ličili kot osvetljevalec na licih. Všeč mi je tekoča tekstura, ki se enostavno porazdeli po koži. Sicer ima kar nekaj bleščic ampak na licih to ni tako opazno. Ima tudi priročno pumpico. Ga bom pa verjetno kupila še v kakšnem drugem odtenku.


Catrice Eyeshadow Stix - 010 Satinfaction
This eyeshadow stick is in a triangular shape for a precise & fast application. The shape in my opinion doesn't really make the difference, as a round one would be just perfect as well. It has a nice light texture and glides on easily while you can blend it in very quickly. I recommend these kind of products when you are in a hurry because they're just so simple to use. Shade 010 Satinfaction is a champagne shimmery shade which looks very nice, though I would prefer if it would be even shimmery or more pigmented. I might check out other shades.

Ta barvica za oči ima trikotno obliko za lažje in hitrejše nanašanje. Super je, da se enostavno vrti, vendar ne vidim razlike v tem, če bi bil ta stik v okrogli obliki. Sicer pa mi je všeč tekstura, ker se lepo zabriše ter je nanos res hiter. Super je, če se vam zjutraj res mudi v službo. Odtenek 010 Satinfaction je bež, svetleč odtenek, ki izgleda zelo lepo, vendar bi si sama želela še več sijaja. Morda pa si omislim še kakšen odtenek.


Essence Camouflage+ Healthy Glow Concealer - 10 light ivory
I haven't tried any of Essence concealers in probably a few years. This new one comes in a healthy glow or a matt version. I thought this one would be too hydrating or anything, however it has just a perfect texture. It's a bit thicker and dries down very quickly, so you have to work with it quickly. It has some light reflecting pigments in it, so it makes your under eye area a bit more healthy looking, though it's not that noticeable. Plus it's supposed to be waterproof. Well, I like that it's quite pigmented and covers easily, though the texture could be a bit less drying.

Ne spomnim se kdaj sem nazadnje preizkušala kakšen Essence korektor, tako da je to zame čist nov teritorij. Tale je v različicah: Healthy Glow ali Matt. Sicer imam sama vse najraje kar matt, vendar sem se lotila preizkušanja Healthy Glow različice. Tekstura je malce gostejša in se precej hitro posuši, tako da ga moreš hitro zabrisati. Vsebuje delce, ki naj bi osvetlili področje pod očmi ter dali zdrav videz, vendar sama tega opazim. Prav tako sem ugotovila, da sploh ni vlažilen in je precej matt. Hkrati pa naj bi bil vodoodporen. Pigmentacija je kar odlična in res lepo prekrije podočnjake, sicer pa ni "full-coverage". Tekstura bi pa lahko bila manj suha.

Essence Insta-Care Lipstick - 02 daily maybe
I thought this lipstick would be just a sheer lip balm but I was wrong. It is highly pigmented and feels quite moisturizing on the lips, due to containing shea buttter. It leaves your lips a bit shiny and it smells vey nice and fresh. It comes in a nice sleek, rotating packaging. The shade and texture definitely reminds me of one of their old LE lipstick (from Happy girls are pretty collection) which I loved.

Za tole negovalno šminko sem mislila, da bo precej bolj prosojna, vendar sem se motila. Je kar dobro pigmentirana, hkrati pa je zelo negovalna in vlažilna na ustnicah saj vsebuje karitejevo maslo. Na ustnicah pusti rahel sijoč učinek ter diši prijetno sveže. Je v ozki, priročni embalaži. Odtenek in tekstura pa me spominjajo na šminko iz njihove kolekcije Happy girls are pretty.
