Hi girls.
This year has been weird. Also in makeup department because half of the year we were mostly at home. I also didn't buy or test much new makeup because I also need to use up some of it in my collection. But the days that I even went to the store I put on a bit of makeup because I like it. So my yearly favorites are a bit in a smaller group, but there still are some great products that I recommend. If you want to see my last years makeup favorites, click here.

Max Factor Facefinity All Day Flawless Foundation - 40 Light Ivory

Ta puder sem prejela lani okoli božiča ter sem ga testirala v začetku letošnjega leta. Kar hitro se mi je dopadel in sem bila vesela, da imam še eno podlago, ki mi je všeč, saj sem glede tekočih pudrov precej zbirčna. Najbolj mi je všeč lahka, tekoča tekstura, ki pa je še vedno dobro (srednje) prekrivna. Odtenek me je pravtako presenetil saj je precej svetel, kar pa običajno v drogerijah ne najdem in se tako lepo zlije z mojo porcelanasto poltjo. Gre za mat finiš, ki pa deluje malce sijoče. Meni je za hladnejše dni res fajn, ker se mi zdi, da ne poudari suhih predelov ter ne zateguje kože. Za poleti izberem kaj bolj obstojnejšega. Več tukaj.

I received this foundation last Christmas, so I started testing it this year. Quite quickly I got fond of it. I have difficulty with foundations because my skin is quite oily, but a bit dry in colder months. Also my skin is very pale, so most drugstore foundations are too dark for me. But this one is very nice. It's lightweight, but still has a nice coverage (medium). It's not too matt or too hydrating: it's a nice natural finish. Plus it's not heavy. It might not work for me in hot months, but any other time, it's perfect. The shade is absolutely perfect as it's very light. For more click here.

L'Oreal Paris Glow Mon Amour Liquid Highlighting Drops - Champagne

Tole je čudovit tekoči osvetljevalec. Je na bolj oljni osnovi, tako, da ga je treba pred uporabo premešati in potrebna je samo kapljica za oba lička. Je v barvi šampanjca, tako, da je bolj bež zlatkast ton, ki se dopade večim tonom kože. Jaz ga nanesem kar s kapalko na prst. Na vrh obeh lic naredim pikice, malo počakam in lepo zabrišem. Ker je zelo tekoč traja, da se posuši, vendar mi je to po eni strani všeč, ker je veliko tekočih osvetljevalcev, ki se takoj posušijo in se zato težje zabrišejo. Izredno lepo se sveti in je dobro opazen - ni mi všeč, ko osvetljevalci kar izginejo s kože. Nima pa velikih bleščic, da bi izgledala kot "disko krogla". Lahko ga nanesete malo ali več, za še večji učinek. Ne vem pa kako bom porabila to veliko embalažo. Več tukaj

This is a really gorgeous highlighter. It's oil based, so you have to shake it firstly. You only need a little drop for both cheeks. It's in a champagne color, so it's more of a beige goldy (not too gold) undertone. I think it complements a lot of skin color. I simply put it on with a finger, applying little dots on top of my cheeks. Because it's very liquidy, it takes a bit of time to dry. But I like that, because some liquid highlighters dry too quickly and they're hard to blend. This one doesn't. Plus it's very shiny (not glittery) and visible, which I like because sometimes highlighters just disappear. You can apply little or more, depending on how much shine you want. I love it. But I'm probably never going to use up such a big packaging. More here.

The Body Shop Coconut Bronze Glistening Glow Powder

The Body Shop ima tudi kar nekaj odličnih ličil, čeprav sem jih preizkusila samo nekaj. Še vedno pa mi ni jasno zakaj so leto iz prodaje dali osvetlitvene kapljice - res ne vem kje jih bom dobila, ko mi jih zmanjka (sem si pa naredila zalogo). Poleti so lansirali nekaj bronzerjev in ta duo se mi je kar hitro prikupil. Bronzer je res dobro pigmentiran in niti malo ne izgleda "lisasto" na obrazu. Prav tako ni oranžkast, ampak doda lepo zagorelost ličkam. Osvetljevalec je tako univerzalne bež barve in doda lep naraven sijaj. Cel produkt pa diši po kokosu in poletju, kar se mi zelo dopade ob nanašanju. Več tukaj.

The Body Shop has some nice makeup products, from what I've tried - not a lot. Though I will not get over the fact that they discontinued lightening drops - those were the best at making your foundation match. So this summer they launched a few bronzers and bronzing oils. This bronzer duo I liked immediately. Bronzer is nicely pigmented, not patchy, nor orangey. Plus it doesn't have any fallout. It creates a nice bronzed look. Also highlighter is in a nice beige tone, which compliments my skin tone and it gives just a nice amount of shine. Plus the whole duo smells like coconuts, which is really nice when applying it.

Essence Bye Bye Panda Eyes Mascara

Ta maskara me je letos res presenetila. Gre za "tubing" maskaro, ki se ne paca. Sama imam mastne veke in tole sem uporabljala tudi v vročih poletnih mesecih in mi je bila odlična. Ok, tu in tam sem opazila kakšno mini pikico, vendar nič tako zelo opaznega. Je tudi lepo volumenska, kar je meni predvsem pomembno. Tudi drugim sem jo priporočala in jim je bila všeč. Več tukaj.

This mascara surprised me nicely. It's a "tubing" mascara, so it's smudge proof. I have oily eyelids and mostly during the warmer months mascara very easily smears under my eyes or top of my eyelid. So this one was well tested and I loved it. Here and there I might have noticed a little dot, but I didn't have any panda eyes. Also it's nicely volumizing and black, so it gives my lashes a nice effect. I recommended it to some girls and they loved it as well. More here.

Catrice Instant Awake Concealer 005 Neutral Light

Ta korektor mi je zelo všeč, saj je tako lahkoten. Jaz običajno ne potrebujem zelo težkih korektorjev, ker nimam velikih podočnjakov in tudi ne želim, da se mi vsedajo v gubice. Tale se enostavno zabriše in se ne opazi na podočnjakih. Nevtralizira modro/vijoličen ton ter je prekrivnost ravno pravšnja. Embalaža verjetno ni najbolj higienična, ampak je priročna za hiter nanos. Več tukaj.

I really like this concealer because it's so light-weight. I don't usually need nor want heavy concealer, because I don't have big eye bags and I don't like concealer settling in. So this one is perfect because it's easy to blend and it's not even noticeable. It does hide any blue color and gives just enough coverage. The packaging might not be my favorite, though it's easy to use. More here.

Catrice Matt Pro Ink Non-Transfer Lipstick

Čeprav letos nisem nosila šminke tako pogosto, pa so me navdušile Catrice tekoče šminke. Najbolj zato, ker so res ekstra lahko mazljive in se ne posušijo prehitro, tako, da imaš še čas, da hitro popraviš nanos. Hkrati pa se mi zdi, da mi ustnic ne zategujejo preveč in so za mat tekoče šminke, precej udobne. Tudi poceni so in na voljo je veliko lepih odtenkov. Več fotografij tukaj.

I didn't wear much lipstick this year. However, I was impressed by Catrice liquid lipsticks. They're easy to apply, don't dry too fast, so you have time to correct application. Also they're not too drying, so I don't feel like my lips are tightened. So I'd say for a liquid lipstick, they're quite comfortable. Also there's a beautiful variety of shades available. More here.

Essence Make Me Brow eyebrow gel mascara - 01 blondy brows

Tole "maskaro" za obrvi sem si kupila, ker sem porabila ostale. Hkrati so od Catrice Eyebrow Filler dali iz prodaje. Najprej mi tale produkt ni bil najboljši, a sem ga sčasoma vzljubila. Barva mi je super, ker ni rumena ali oranžkasta, temveč bolj sivkasta. Krtačka pa je lepo precizna. Izdelek na nesem na obrvi in, ko se malo posuši si obrvi še malo počešem, da se ne opazi tako zelo. Vseeno so moje obrvi zaradi barve bolj opazne in definirane. Za obrvi uporabljam samo tole. Več tukaj.

I purchased this brow mascara because I ran out of the others, plus my fave: Catrice Eyebrow Filler was discontinued. I didn't love it at first, but trying it out multiple times, I really do like it. I love the color, because it's ashy, not orangey or yellow. Brush is little and a bit more precise. So I apply it onto my brows, wait a bit and brush through with a different brush. It's not too obvious, but my brows are definitely more defined and have more color to them. I use only this on my brows. More here.
