Hi girls.

I know I haven't written anything in a while. Well, I've been testing some skincare and such which take so much time to test properly. Meanwhile, here is what I used up...

The Body Shop Mango Shower Gel

I absolutely loved this shower gel. The scent was so refreshing and yummy. I'm not sure it smelled like mangoes, maybe a bit fresher and with a zesty undertone. It foamed up nicely and was so nice to shower with.

Repurchase: yes

CD Pomegranate Shower Gel

Another refreshing shower gel. This one didn't wow me as much as it had a slight scent of alcohol, however it was still nice to freshen up.

Repurchase: no

Planet Spa Caribbean Escape Luxurious Bath Elixir

This was some kind of bubble bath. It made some bubbles, but not that much. However it made my skin a bit more silky. The scent wasn't anything special, but it was a relaxing one.

Repurchase: maybe

Mirati Face Wash

One of my favorite skincare products since 2016. This face wash is gentle but refreshing with a lemon scent. It cleans the skin very well while not drying it up at all. Plus it's mostly natural. Review here.
Repurchase: probably

Garnier Micellar Cleansing Water

This is one of the best micellar waters I've tried. I love the La Roche Posay Ultra one, however this one is as nice but it's quite cheaper. It really does remove even the blackest mascara without irritating the eyes.

Repurchase: yes

L'Oreal Pure Clay Cleansing Gel

I love cleansing gels and this one was nice as well. Although because it has clay in it, I didn't use it every day, because it was really deeply cleansing. It removed the remains of the makeup very well and it didn't dry out my skin (though my skin type is oily).

Repurchase: maybe

Soraya Care Control Mattifying Cream

I love trying new face cream with matt effect because my skin gets quite oily. This one had a nice fresh scent. I did think it helped combating the oils, however I have other creams that work better.

Repurchase: no

Rexona Active Protection+ Invisible Anti-perspirant

I like Rexona deodorants, but after trying this one, it is now my winner. I always choose the ones for black and white clothing. This one lasts even longer and acts even more when you get active. I mostly also love this one for the scent because it's kind of a powdery one and out of all other Rexona deodorants, this one doesn't make me choke on it.

Repurchase: already have

Rexona Stress Control deodorant

I think this one was one of my favorite deodorants so far. I love Rexona for hot and busy days since it protects me very well, however this one is a bit more special. Well, it just has that fresh, citrus smell to it which I love ! Sadly it is not made for black clothes.

Repurchase: yes

Garnier Mineral Protection Anti-perspirant

This is a decent deodorant. It protects me quite well, but I don't love the scent and I don't think it's as good as Rexona. I might switch to it again when I feel like Rexona doesn't work for me anymore.

Repurchase: maybe

Tigi Bed Head Oh Bee Hive! Dry Shampoo

The best dry shampoo I've ever tried. I do love Batiste, however this one by Tigi is just amazing. First of all, I loved the sweet scent which made my hair smell so nice for a whole day. The texture is transparent and sinks in very well without leaving annoying residue. It eliminates oil and gives you a fresh feeling. Although it might not be for the days where your hair is absolutely oily; that's where Batiste comes to help. I just don't like that it's so expensive for a dry shampoo.

Repurchase: yes

Batiste Dry Shampoo - Tropical scent

My favorite Batiste scent - it's just so nice, literally tropical, coconuty. I really like Batiste dry shampoos even tough they're not transparent, so they still leave a white residue, however they're kind of better than all the other ones.

Repurchase: yes

Lush I love Juicy Shampoo

One of my favorite shampoos for oily hair. It has an amazing tropical scent due to all the juices that it contains. It cleanses the hair very well without stripping it or leaving dry. Though I mostly use Lush solid shampoos because they're more environmentally friendly. 

Repurchase: yes

Schwarzkopf Blond Me Color Correction Spray Conditioner

An interesting product for blondes. This spray is rich purple and is supposed to help with correcting the yellow undertones of the hair. Also it has some sparkles in it. I'm not sure that it works great as a neutralizer, however I think it's better to use this one, than any other yellow oily conditioners. If you're looking for a great product to get you rid of the yellow tones, I recommend you Ice cream No-yellow shampoo (find it here) because that one is really good.

Repurchase: maybe

Afrodita Cosmetics Calendula Hand Cream

Afrodita has some nice products and usually doesn't disappoint me. Well, this hand cream was nice as well. It was nicely rich and texture sinks into the skin quite quick. The scent is a bit natural but pleasant. It worked well and I would buy it again.

Repurchase: yes

Caudalie The des Vignes Hand Cream

I like the original Caudalie hand cream and this one had the same texture but different scent. It was a bit more floral. You can read more about the whole line here.

Repurchase: maybe

The Body Shop Frosted Cranberry Hand Cream

This is last years (2017) Christmas scent which I loved so much. I saved this cream a little bit because I just loved the scent. The texture was thinner, though it absorbed quickly. It wasn't the most moisturizing hand cream, however the scent made happy each time I used it.

Repurchase: yes

Essence Lip Ritual Repairing Lip Balm

I thought this lip balm would be nothing special, however it surprised me. By the look, it doesn't seem oily or buttery. The texture is light, but nicely hydrating. Cannot say that it repaired my lips, however it was moisturising enough. Plus the scent was interesting; fresh. 

Repurchase: maybe

Jasmin Girl Intimate Wipes

These are ok, but nothing special. I do still buy them from time to time because they're gentle and cheap. Plus the packaging is nice because you can actually close it with a plastic lid. Though I prefer Duchesse ones, which are a bit wetter.

Repurchase: maybe

Velnea Make-up Remover Wipes

I bought these because I went to the pool and needed to remove my makeup. I always just pick some random makeup wipes. Well, I didn't like these. Nowadays I think there are just a few makeup wipes that would not get my skin irritated. These ones made my eyes sting and my skin was quite red afterwards. I used them up while doing some swatches and such.

Repurchase: no

Duchesse Cosmetic Cotton Pads

Because I use up cotton pads so often I like buying cheap ones. These are not the best because they're a bit thinner, but they totally work and I love them. They don't separate or anything, so it's easy to use them.
Repurchase: yes (always)

Duchesse Cosmetic Cotton Pads (Sand-Dorn Extract)
I did really enjoy these cotton pads as they were a bit thicker, so they were easier to use. Though I still buy the cheapest ones from Duchesse.
Repurchase: maybe

Živjo punce.

Pri Catrice so v aprilu lansirali novo omejeno kolekcijo Kaviar Gauche. V njej so vedno luštni izdelki, res lepi za pogledat in včasih jih je tudi škoda porabit. Pa poglejmo kaj sem testirala iz nove kolekcije, ki je že na poličkah drogerij...

Hi girls.
I'm back with new launches. This time in April, Catrice has released LE collection Kaviar Gauche. I think they release the same named collection each year but with different products. They're usually very pretty and sometimes I even want to just look at them and not use them. So let's see what I tested from this collection...

Ta set mini šmink je čist lušten. Sama težko porabim normalno šminko, zato se mi takšne mini zadeve vedno dopadejo. V priročni škatlici najdeš 4 odtenke šmink: rjavo-nude, oranžkasto nude, oranžno ter rdečo. Njihova embalaža sicer ni najbolj vrhunska, ampak za v torbico bodo kar vredu. Najbolj pa mi je všeč železna posodica, saj ima ogledalo in lahko odstraniš plastično držalo, ter v škatlico daš kar želiš. Tudi kakšne druge makeup izdelke, gumice ipd. Je lahka in priročna za v torbico. Same šminke pa so zelo pigmentirane in zelo kremaste (razen oranžen odtenek je precej matt). Enostavno se nanašajo in z enim potegom je odtenek na ustnicah popoln. Sicer obstojnost ni najboljša, ker gre za precej kremne, vlažilne šminke. Raznoliki odtenki so mi tudi všeč.



This lipstick set is totally cute and handy. I usually have a hard time using up a normal lipstick, so I really appreciate these small versions. Plus they're easier to apply since the bullet is a bit more precise. The small tin contains four lipstick: beige-nude, brownish-nude, orange and red shade (cool toned). I really like the tin because it has a mirror and you can take out the plastic insert, so you can store whatever you want in it (mostly makeup or some bobby pins) and put it in your purse. Lipsticks are very creamy and pigmentation is amazing, so you only need one swipe. Only orange shade is quite matt. They're easy to apply and look very nice on the lips. Unfortunately because of the creamy texture, they're not long lasting. But still they're nice to have in your bag. 

Čeprav imam sama že dovolj velike ustnice in jih ne bi rada povečala, mi je ta volumenski glos padel v oko, ker je odtenek nežno roza (tako "mlečen"). Sicer je embalaža malce slabša, ker je tudi aplikator nerodno majhen in trd ter z njim na ustnice ne moreš nanesti veliko izdelka. Sicer pa mi je glos všeč. Ima vonj po mentolu in tudi malce "peče" na ustnicah, saj naj bi jih ta mentol tako povečal. Ta občutek kar hitro izgine, kar mi je okej.

And another interesting lip product is this lip booster. Not that my lips are not big enough, because I wouldn't make them bigger anyway. I just really liked the creamy pink shade. Packaging is a bit difficult because it's so slim and applicator is stiff and tiny, so you have to take some time to apply product onto your lips. Though I like the shade and texture of gloss because it's not sticky and makes my lips look nice. The menthol though stings a bit at first: it's supposed to enlarge your lips, which I didn't notice much. However the feeling disappears quickly, so it's fine.
