Živjo punce.
V januarju sem preizkusila kar nekaj izdelkov in nekateri so me zelo navdušili, zato sem se odločila, da vam jih predstavim. Opravičujem se, ker je ta objava precej pozna, vendar sem imela malce probleme z zdravjem (prehlad,gastritis,trebušna gripa..) in tudi preprosto ni se mi dalo blogat. Še vedno uživam v teh izdelkih, zato sem se odločila, da vseeno objavim ta zapis...

Hi girls.

In January I discovered many nice makeup products, so it's time to share them with you. I'm sorry for posting this so late, however I just had some health issues and also didn't feel like blogging. But here are some makeup gems that I still enjoy a lot.

Ta senčka je absolutno čudovita. Sicer imam v zbirki že moder odtenek, vendar ga stežka nosim. Ta pa je čudovit: hladno rjav in zelo bleščeč. Taki odtenki mojim zelenim očem zelo ustrezajo saj jih poudarijo. Senčko uporabljam tako, da uporabim kar čopič za zabrisovanje ter jo nanesem čez celotno veko ter jo lepo zabrišem. Zelo je bleščeča in meni je všeč za uporabo kar samostojno. Hkrati pa je kar dobro obstojna.

This eyeshadow is just gorgeous. I have a blue version in my collection but this one really wowed me. It's a nice taupe brown shade which suits my green eyes a lot. I simply apply it with a fluffy blending brush onto the eyes and swipe it around to create one shadow look. It looks super sparkly and it's just beautiful to use on it's own. Plus it's quite long lasting.

Še en izdelek, katerega teksturo sem preizkusila že pred tem v svetlo roza svetlečem odtenku, ki mi ni bil najljubši. Odtenek 020 pa je bež zlat in se zelo lepo zlije z mojo poltjo. Osvetljevalec je precej subtilen in ni tako sijoč ali opazen, vendar ga lahko tudi zmešate s podlago saj je precej univerzalen odtenek.

Again, this is a product I've tried before but in a different shade which was pale pink and wasn't my favorite. The shade 020 is more of a golden champagne shade which blends into my skin very nicely. It is quite a subtle highlighter, so it's not gonna stand out as much, however you could also mix it in with your foundation for all over glow because it's quite an universal color.

Kot blogerka me zelo zanimajo zelo opevani izdelki in jih rada preizkušam. Ta maskara je ena izmed njih. Kupila sem potovalno različico, ker imam preveč maskar in jih ne morem porabit v določenem času. Krtačka je bolj gosta in ima zanimivo obliko, saj so ščetine na začetku in koncu dolge, na sredini pa krajše. Formula maskare je odlična. Krtačka nanese ravno dovolj produkta na trepalnice ter jim podari veliko volumna ter je tudi zelo črna. Ne zlepi trepalnic in daje občutek, da imaš enkrat več trepalnic. Res mi je všeč kako izgleda na meni, čeprav se malce razmaže čez nekaj ur.

I've been trying some hyped up products lately and this one is one of them. I picked up a travel size version because I simply cannot finish that many full size mascaras. The wand is thicker and fluffy with an interesting shape: bristles are longer at the start, in the middle and at the end. There are two spaces where the bristles are shorter. The mascara formula is very nice. The brush coats the lashes nicely, giving a ton of volume and it is very black. The lashes don't get stuck together and look very fluffy. I really like the finished look, however on me it smudges a bit.

Izdelke za ustnice imam najraje, če so lepo kremasti. In tudi ta šminka ima lepo kremasto teksturo, ki se preprosto nanaša na ustnice ter daje izgled sočnih, navlaženih ustnic. Tekstura je zelo podobna YSL Volupté Shine šminkam. Embalaža sicer ni tako luksuzna, vendar je prav tako absolutno čudovita. Če iščete bolj poceni različico teh šmink, vam jih definitivno priporočam. Sicer pa takšne šminke ne izgledajo najboljše na suhih, razpokanih ustnicah tako, da svetujem kakšen piling.

This is a dupe for YSL Volupté Shine lipsticks. It has a very similar texture: a smooth, buttery texture which glides on very easily while looking quite shiny and hydrating. Plus it also has a fruity scent. Even though the packaging of YSL lipsticks is really special, these ones look very fancy too. It is a plastic packaging, however it looks and feel very sturdy and luxurious.

Lani sem v Parizu v kompletu kupila UD Fixing Spray in tega vlažilnega. Nisem se spomnila, da bi ga uporabljala ravno v poletnih mesecih, saj je moja koža takrat bolj mastna. Zdaj pa se soočam z bolj suho povrhnjico ter sem bila vmes že dvakrat prehlajena in je moja koža okoli nosu tudi precej suha. Tako sem potrebovala veliko vlažilnih izdelkov in potem sem se spomnila na ta sprej. Že po prvi uporabi mi je bil precej všeč. Naneseš ga kot osnovo pod podlago. Diši po kokosu saj vsebuje infuzijo kokosove vode. Mogoče spominja na ostale vodice za obraz, vendar mi je ta res všeč saj takoj daje občutek svežine in navlaženosti. Sicer verjetno velike različice ne bi kupila, ker je precej draga za to kar je, ampak mi je res prijeten za uporabo.

In Paris, last year I bought a duo of UD Fixing Spray and this one. I didn't care much to use it in a summer months, however lately my skin has been a bit drier, also because I cleaned my nose so much because I was sick. So, that's why I needed some products to make my makeup look a bit better. I decided to prep my skin with this spray and I was very happy even with the first use. It smells like coconuts because it's infused with coconut water. It instantly refreshes your skin and can be also use over makeup to give your skin a fresher look. It might be like any other infused water sprays, however it's really lovely. I'm sure I won't be buying a full-size because it's expensive but it's really nice to use.

Hi girls.

I've decided to show you a few products I've been using lately to get a more perfected skin. Also there will be some tips included and I hope this post will be interesting for you. You can use these techniques even in winter, however at that time I seem to change up my makeup products. In summer months I stay away from heavy makeup but I want my skin to look as beautiful as possible. Which you can achieve with a reasonable amount of right makeup. Also summer is all about the glowy skin, though because I have oily type of skin, I don't go over the top with highlighting products. So let's see what I use..

Živjo punce.

Torat vam bom opisala izdelke in tehnike s katerimi lahko dosežem videz izpopolnjene kože. Upam, da vam bo zapis zanimiv. Te tehnike lahko uporabite tudi pozimi, vendar sama takrat spremenim izbor izdelkov. Poleti se tako izogibam močnemu videzu ličil vendar želim, da je koža videti lepo. To se doseže z določenim nanosom pravih ličil. Poleti se na veliko govori o sijočem videzu, vendar ker je moja koža že naravno precej mastna, se izogibam pretirani uporabi osvetljevalcev. Torej, poglejmo kaj uporabljam...

Firstly, for skincare it is very important to have a great routine with products that work for you. I try as much to keep my skin clear from any impurities. When my skin has much texture I use a face scrub to remove dead skin. I always use Lush Ocean Salt scrub, once every two weeks which seem to work fine for me. And cleansing is also very important. Before bed I always double cleanse (makeup remover, then gel cleanser). Then I use light skincare, which usually involves any serum that I have in rotation at the moment. In the morning I keep it simple and only cleanse my face. I always use a cream before applying my makeup and wait for it to sink in. If I know pimple is coming through, I always apply some of the Tea Tree Oil drops from The Body Shop. Also Tea Tree Water toner from Lush is a saviour when having breakouts. 

Najprej je seveda zelo pomembna nega kože in da imate dobro rutino z izdelki, ki vam ustrezajo. Sama skušam kožo čim bolje negovati, da je čista in brez nepravilnosti. Tako, ko zaznam, da je tekstura kože čudna, posežem po pilingu, da odstranim odmrle delce. Vsaka dva tedna uporabim Lushev Ocean Salt piling, saj mi je najljubši. Zvečer pa si obraz vedno dvakrat čistim (najprej odstranim ličila, nato še uporabim čistilo v gelu). Sledi pa lahka nega obraza, tako uporabim kakšen serum, ki ga imam takrat v rotaciji. Zjutraj pa si samo lepo očistim obraz in je moja nega bolj preprosta. Pred nanosom ličil vedno nanesem kremo za obraz ter počakam nekaj minut. Kadar pa vem, da se mi bo naredil mozoljček, uporabim The Body Shop: Tea Tree Oil kapljice. Tudi Lushev Tea Tree Water tonik je moj najljubši za nečist kožo.

Now onto the makeup. For base I keep it light because when being in a warm environment, I think my makeup gets cakey if there's too much product on it. I often use Clarins Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion Base in the shade 02 Champagne which gives a natural glow and prepares my skin for the next step. For foundation I still use Revlon Colorstay (150 Buff), which is medium coverage, but for this look I use a smaller amount, just to swipe it all over the face. Then I would focus on the areas which need extra coverage. There I would use Bourjois Radiance Reveal. That concealer is amazing because it provides medium coverage but it's light weight and doesn't crease. Also it's hydrating (Hyaluronic Acid) without looking cakey. For more coverage I would use: Lancôme Effacernes Longue Tenue Concealer. The key part here is to blend everything together using a wet makeup sponge. This little one from Real Techniques (Mini Eraser Sponge) is amazing for concealer and blending in areas. I still set my makeup with Rimmel Stay Matte! powder, but I use a smaller amount, to not look cakey.

In k ličenju...Podlaga naj bo čim lažja saj so poleti ličila lahko precej težka in dajejo pudrast videz, če jih nanesemo preveč. Velikokrat najprej nanesem Clarins Instant Light Radiance Boosting Complexion bazo v odtenku 02 Champagne, saj mi daje svež videz in pripravi kožo na naslednji korak. Še vedno uporabljam Revlon Colorstay tekoči puder, ki ima srednjo prekrivnost, vendar ga poleti nanesem majhno količino, ravno toliko, da prekrijem cel obraz. Nato se osredotočim na področja, ki potrebujejo več prekrivanja. Pri tem uporabim korektor Bourjois Radiance Reveal, kateri nudi srednjo prekrivnost in je tako lahkoten, da ga na koži ni opaziti. Prav tako je vlažilen saj vsebuje hialuronsko kislino. Za področja, ki potrebujejo res odlično prekrivnost pa uporabim Lancôme Effacernes Longue Tenue korektor. Ključni del pa je zabrisovanje z mokro gobico za nanos ličil. Tale od Real Techniques je super za zabrisovanje korektorja ter detajlov. Celoten makeup zaključim z Rimmel Stay Matte! pudrom v kamnu, katerega nanesem na rahlo, da videz ni pudrast.

For highlighting I am obsessed with Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Liquid in the shade Opal. I apply a few dots on top of my cheeks and on my brow bone and then just blend out with finger. The finish is very natural and not too shimmery. Plus it adds that needed summer glow. I might also put it onto my eyelids. And then I focus on bronzing, which I'm back to Benefit Hoola Bronzer. It is just so easy to use as the powder is very fine and doesn't look patchy on the skin. I use a small amount because it's really pigmented and my skin is so pale. I would also use it in the crease of my eyelids.

Trenutno sem obsedena z Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Liquid osvetljevalcem v odtenku Opal. Na vrh lic ter pod obrvi nanesem nekaj pikic katere zabrišem s prsti. Ključni izgled je zelo naraven ter ne bleščičast. S tem osvetljevalcem dosežem takšen lep, poleten sijaj. Lahko pa ga naneseš tudi na veke. Nadaljujem z uporabo bronzerja. Spet sem obsedena z Benefit Hoola bronzerjem. Ta doda ključen poleten videz zagorelosti. Ker sem zelo svetla, ga uporabim narahlo, pa vendar s tem dodam obrazu nekaj "življenja". Včasih ga uporabim tudi v pregibu vek oči.

I keep the eyes simple and just use DiorShow: Pump'n'Volume mascara which gives me amazing, fake-looking lashes. And finish off my brows with some Golden Rose brow mascara. For the lips I use just a simple creamy lipstick. My go to nude is MAC: Faux. Of course every makeup has to be finished with Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray to blend the makeup together, eliminate the powdery look and make it last all day long.

Oči pustim enostavne ter samo uporabim DiorShow - Pump'n'Volume maskaro, katera mi daje nor videz umetnih trepalnic. Na obrvi pa nanesem Golden Rose Brow Color Tinted Eyebrow maskaro. Za ustnice želim, da so videti čim bolj kremaste, zato nanesem tudi temu primerno vlažilno ali kremasto šminko. Moj najljubši "nude" odtenek je trenutno Faux, znamke MAC. Vsak videz pa ni popoln brez Urban Decay All Nighter spreja. Ta odstrani pudrast videz, pripomore k temu, da se ličila na koži lepše zlijejo in so obstojna dalj časa.

Živjo punce.
Opazila sem, da res z veseljem kupujem mini oziroma majhne različice ličil. Verjetno se strinjamo, da izgledajo takšne embalaže res luštno. Hkrati pa če želim preizkusiti malce dražje izdelke, se mi zdi ful fajn, da le tega preizkusim, da se izognem katastrofalnemu nakupu. Seveda če preračunamo, je nakupovanje takšnih izdelkov morda dražje, vendar jih jaz raje kupim, ker ne vem ali mi bodo všeč. Takšne mini oziroma potovalne izdelke lahko po večini kupite v Sephori in podobnih trgovinah z ličili. Kakšne negovalne izdelke in produkte za kožo pa dobite tudi v klasičnih drogerijah. Hkrati pa če radi letite in ste omejeni na ročno prtljago, se morate tudi držati pravil koliko tekočin lahko vzamete s seboj in je takrat takšna opcija res fajn. Sicer pa kakšne šampone itd. je fajn samo prelit v majhne embalaže.

Hi girls.

I noticed that I'm quite obsessed with buying mini sized products. First of all they look so cute but then again if I want to try an expensive makeup product, sometimes I'd rather just test it firstly to see how it performs on me. If you calculate it, buying mini sized products might be a bit more expensive but in my opinion if you can sometimes avoid a disastrous purchase, it's worth it. Mostly you can find mini/travel options for makeup in Sephora and such. But for skincare and other, you can get it even in drugstores or sometimes it's a gift with purchase. Plus if you always travel with hand luggage, you're limited to how much liquid you can take with you, so these come in handy. Though I'd advise you to sometimes use up one packaging and then fill it up with what you have at home.

Benefit Hoola Bronzer 

Ne spomnim se, da bi kdaj sploh porabila rdečilo za lička ali bronzer. Zato se mi takšna ideja majhnega bronzerja zdi super odločitev. Le tega sama vzamem s seboj res povsod kamor grem in še vedno se mi ni uspelo prebiti do dna. Odtenek je super, ker ni topel in izgleda precej naravno na koži.  Velikost embalaže pa je res pravšnja. Čopič, ki sem ga dobila zraven pa sicer ni najbolj uporaben, kar me ne moti.

I can't remember that I'd ever used up a blush or a bronzer. So purchasing a smaller bronzer was a perfect decision. I literally take it everywhere I go and I still haven't hit the pan. I think the shade is great as it's not too orangey and it looks very nice on the skin, not patchy at all. The brush might be useless but the actual size of packaging is just great.

Benefit Galifornia Blush

Še en Benefit potovalen izdelek za lička. V embalaži izgleda zelo oranžno, vendar, če so vam všeč marelični odtenki, je ta res lep. Z rahlim nanosom, daje licem pravšnjo barvo. Izgleda lepo in lička delujejo živa. Odtenek je tudi super za poletja in festivalsko sezono. Kvaliteta pa je prav tako kot pri bronzerju odlična, tako da mi je res všeč.

Another great mini cheek product by Benefit. It might looks scarily orange in the pan, however if you love peachy blushes, this one is just beautiful. With a light swipe, it gives you right amount of color. Plus the color is great for summer time and festival season. The quality is great and I just love it.

Urban Decay All Nighter Setting Spray

Tole je eden izmed mojih "must have" izdelkov, ko potujem. Je verjetno eden izmed najboljših sprejev za fiksiranje ličil. Tega majhnega hranim za potovanja ali dolge dneve. Všeč mi je, ker mojega obraza ne matira popolnoma in ga ne "zategne". Hkrati pa dobro osveži obraz, odstrani pudrast videz ter ličilom podaljša obstojnost. Iz spreja pa se razprši zelo fina meglica, kar redko opazim pri drugih sprejih.

This is a must when travelling. It might really be one of the best setting sprays. I've used up a big bottle and have been keeping small one for when travelling. I like that it doesn't completely mattify my skin, so it doesn't give you a tight feeling. But mainly it's great because it makes your makeup a bit more long lasting and it definitely eliminates a powdery look. The spray on these is great: it's very fine and covers the whole face quickly. 

Makeup Forever Ultra HD Microfinishing Loose Powder

Tudi puder v prahu kar težko porabiš, ker ga za eno uporabo potrebuješ precej malo. Tako se mi ta potovalna velikost zdi popolna. Embalaža pa je super, saj je oblikovana tako, da prah ne uide iz sita in ne leti povsod. Tekstura pudra je zelo fina in lahkotna ter se lepo zlije s kožo. Sam izdelek se mi za takšno ceno ne zdi tako poseben, vendar deluje.

Again, loose powders go a long way and if you don't use them regularly, this kind of "travel" size is just perfect. I love this packaging because it has a stopper, so the powder doesn't fly up everywhere. But the actual powder is very light and blends into the skin easily. I don't think it's that amazing for the price, but it's nice.

Becca Shimmering Skin Perfector Liquid - Opal

V Parizu sem kupila Becca set z osvetljevalcema v prahu ter tekoči obliki, v odtenku Opal. Sicer sem mislila, da mi bo najbolj všeč kompaktni osvetljevalec, vendar me je tekoči popolnoma presenetil. Kompaktni izgleda precej bleščeče, medtem, ko se tekoč precej lepše zabriše in zlije s kožo, tako da izgleda bolj naravno. Enostavno ga je uporabljati in končen učinek je res lep. Sama ga zabrišem kar s prsti in včasih na vrh nanesem transparenten puder, da odstranim lepljivost, ki pa ni tako moteča.

I bought a Becca set with Powder & Liquid highlighter in the shade Opal in Paris (see the haul here). I thought I would prefer the pressed powder, however I was stunned by the liquid highlighter. The powder looks a bit too glittery while the liquid blends in nicely and leaves such a natural nice sheen on the skin. It's so easy to use and the effect is just perfect. I mostly blend it in with my fingers and sometimes set it with translucent powder even though the texture is not really sticky.

Živjo punce.

Na Instagramu sem vas vprašala ali naj z vami delim moj nakup iz Pariza in veliko vas je reklo, da ja. Že nekaj mesecev nisem objavila kakšnega nakupa, tako da je skrajni čas. Sicer pa nisem na veliko zapravljala, ker res ne morem porabit toliko ličil. Zato tudi najraje kupim kakšne potovalne različice izdelkov.

Hi girls.

I've asked you on Instagram if you wanted to see what I picked up in Paris and many of you said yes. I haven't done a haul post in a while, so it's about time. I could've spend more money but have restricted myself for splurging so much because I just can't use up everything. As you will see, I prefer buying smaller sized makeup, to test it and again because everything has expiration date, so I don't want to hoard too much.

Najprej sem seveda zavila v Sephoro. Prvo, ki sem opazila je bila na Champs Elysées. V trgovini je bila res ogromno gužva in tudi veliko zaposlenih so imeli, za vsako znamko posebej. Sicer pa sem si z lahkoto ogledala stvari. Napotila sem se do blagajne, kjer moreš it skozi vrsto, kjer imajo porazdeljene mini izdelke.

Of course firstly I stopped at Sephora. I spotted the one at Champs Elysées which was crazily packed and very alive. There were so many girls working for every beauty counter and it felt so cool. Besides I had no trouble going through and looking at things. I mainly navigated towards the "isle of doom" before you pay, where all the minis are displayed.

Že dolgo sem opazovala Benefit Galifornia rdečilo za lica in sem se zelo razveselila, ko sem opazila potovalno različico. V zbirki že imam Hoola bronzer, enake velikosti in sem zelo zadovoljna z njim saj je v embalaži veliko produkta. Rdečilo je lepe koralne barve ter je dobro pigmentirano. Nanaša pa se zelo enostavno. Popolno bo za pomlad/poletje.

I've been looking for Benefit Galifornia blush for such a long time and I am so happy they had a mini. I have the same sized Hoola bronzer and it has been amazing so far. There's a lot of product inside but is so cute for travelling as well. Galifornia blush is very corally, which I love and I cannot wait to use it, especially in the summer time. Pigmentation is great and the powder is finely mild.

Sicer sama nisem nora na osvetljevalce, vendar me je zelo zanimal ta Becca duo, ker so ti izdelki na spletu tako opevani. Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter v odtenku Opal je bolj bleščičast, kot sem si ga predstavljala in ima precej zlat ton. Je zelo pigmentiran in četudi ga morda ne bom vedno uporabljala na licih, bo super tudi kot senčilo. V setu je še enaka različica v tekoči obliki, ki pa bo super za poletne dni, za več sijaja.

I'm not much of a highlighter person but I wanted to pick Becca duo just to see all the hype around their products. Shimmering Skin Perfector Pressed Highlighter in Opal is definitely more glittery than I imagined. It has a gold undertone and s highly pigmented. If I'm not going to use it on the cheeks, I'll definitely use it on the eyelids. In the set you also the liquid version of Opal which will be great for summer time to achieve that glowy look.

Vzela sem še Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer v odtenku Light Neutral, ki pa je precej temen. V trgovini je izgledal svetlejši, tako da ga bom žal mogla uporabit poleti. Sicer pa je tektura korektorja zelo lahkotna, žametna in se lepo zabriše. Ni pa najbolj prekriven.

And then I also opted for Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer. It's in the shade Light Neutral which looked lighter at first but it's definitely quite dark. I hope I'll get the use out of it in the summer. From my first try, it seems very lightweight, velvety and comfortable on the skin.

Moj zadnji postanek je bil pri Urban Decay oddelku v Galeries Lafayette kjer sem kupila set, ki vsebuje Quick Fix Hydra-Charged Complexion Spray in All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray. All Nighter že poznam in ga imam v veliki in majhni embalaži, vendar bosta kmalu prazni. Všeč mi je, ker odstrani pudrast videz ter podaljša obstojnost ličil. Super je tudi za osvežitev poleti čez dan. Quick Fix spreja pa še nisem preizkusila, vendar diši po kokosu, saj vsebuje kokosovo vodo. Gre za sprej, ki pripravi kožo na ličila. Naj bi zmanjšal videz por ter dodal nekaj hidracije. Res me zanima kako se bo obnesel.

I also stopped at Urban Decay counter in Galeries Lafayette where I picked up a duo of Quick Fix Hydra-Charged Complexion Spray and All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray. I have All Nighter in full and travel size so I love it already since it keeps my makeup from looking to cakey and it prolongs the wear but I'm about to run out of them so I needed a new one. I haven't tried Quick Fix spray before so I'm really intrigued. It smells like coconut water because that's one of the ingredients and it's supposed to prep your skin while reducing the pores and adding some hydration. We'll see how I get along with it.

On my Sephora list were also Kat Von D Lock-it Mini Baking Duo, Nars Creamy Concealer in Vanilla and Marc Jacobs Lip Trio Cream and Sugar Nude but I'll leave these for the next time.

Živjo punce.
Danes bom govorila o mojih najljubših višje cenovnih/luksuznih izdelkih za katere menim, da so vredni nakupa. Vključila sem tudi znamko MAC, za katero ne vem ali je bolj srednjega ranga, vendar se mi zdi, da njihovi izdelki niso tako zelo "dostopni". Seveda sam nisem preizkusila ogromno luksuznih izdelkov, vendar vem kateri so me res prepričali in katerih ne bi ponovno kupila. Tako, da bom omenila res tiste, ki izstopajo po kvaliteti. Res je, da teh izdelkov ne uporabljam vsakodnevno, saj imam kar nekaj drogerijskih favoritov, ki so vredu, ko ne nosim ličil ves dan ali za pomemben dogodek.

Hi girls.

Today I'm going to write about my favorite high-end products which I think are worth buying. I don't know if you put MAC in the same category, but I do because it's not that affordable in Europe. From trying some high-end products not all have met my expectations, so let's just mention the ones I'd definitely repurchase if I had too much money ha ha. And to be honest I do tend to use these products on more special occasions and such because I'm fine with using drugstore makeup for everyday look.



Dražjih tekočih pudrov pa imam res malo, saj jih je najbolje preizkusiti pred nakupom in sama sem tudi najbolj zadovoljna z Revlon Colorstay-jem. Dior Forever tekočo podlago pa sem kupila kar tako, ker se mi je zdela fajn, čeprav nisem prebrala ocen. Odtenek 010 ni tako svetel in je pozimi zame malce pretemen. Sicer so mi všeč res matirajoče podlage, Dior Forever pa obljublja sijaj ter matiranje hkrati. Zelo enostavno se zabriše, ne izsuši kože ter izgleda zelo naravno ter ne "pudrasto". Ravno ta izgled zdrave, lepe kože me je prepričal. Prav tako se občuti lahkotno. Sicer ni ta puder ni tako obstojen kot Revlonov, vendar je še vedno dovolj obstojen. Prekrivnost je srednja in izgleda precej naravno, čeprav prekrije nekatere nepravilnosti. Ima tudi zaščitni faktor 35.
Ta sprej mi je res spremenil rutino ličenja. Je najboljši sprej za fiksiranje ličil, ki sem ga preizkusila in si prav zasluži, da je tolikokrat omenjan v lepotnem svetu. Podaljša obstojnost ličil ter poskrbi, da ličila ne izgledajo tako "pudrasto". Razprši se zelo fino in na obrazu ni videti kapljic, prav tako ne daje mokrega videza in se hitro posuši. Je zelo lahkoten in ga na obrazu ne čutiš (v primerjavi z ostalimi spreji). Sicer ga ne uporabljam vsak dan, ampak samo, ko more moj makeup zdržati ves dan ter ob posebnih priložnostih. Je super rešitev v vročih dneh, saj obraz osveži (čeprav takrat ne nosim toliko ličil).

This is really a game changer in makeup routine. It's the best setting spray I've tried so far. It really does pro long the wear of makeup and makes it look more "natural". The spritz is really fine, so it doesn't leave my face wet and it dries quicker. Plus the texture is light-weight and you cannot feel it on the skin while some other sprays tend to do that. Yes, I don't use it every day, just when I need to make my makeup last all day long and on special occasions. Plus it feels refreshing in hot summer weather (even though at that time I don't wear much makeup).

YSL Touche Éclat Face Highlighter Pen - 1 Luminous Radiance

O tem izdelku se v lepotnem svetu kar precej govori, vendar je meni res všeč. Preizkusila sem tudi nekaj podobnih produktov, ki pa se niso obnesli. Ta korektor/osvetljevalec je res precej drag (30€), vendar je učinek res lep. Naneseš ga na željena mesta z aplikatorjem v obliki čopiča, pustiš minutko, da se malo posuši ter ga nato zabrišeš. Drugih korektorjev ne moreš pustiti, da se posušijo saj se vse vsede v linije. Tega pa ne smeš zabrisati takoj, saj potem kar izgine ter nima prekrivnosti. Korektor je zelo lahkoten ter izgleda lepo naravno. Odtenek 1 je rozkast/lososov ter pomaga nevtralizirati modre/vijolične tone podočnjakov. Lahko pa ga uporabiš tudi za osvetljevanje bilokje na obrazu. V zbirki imam tudi odtenek 2 Luminous Ivory, ki pa na meni izgleda kot običajen korektor, ter mi ne daje učinka osvetljevanja.

Izmed dražjih šmink so mi res všeč MAC-ove. Všeč mi je tekstura in obstojnost. Sama imam formuli: Amplified Creme in Satin ter sta mi obe odlični. MAC ponuja velik nabor odtenkov, ki pa so odlično pigmentirani. Prav tako sama nimam problemov z njihovimi šminkami, čeprav teksture niso vlažilne. Moja najljubša odtenka sta: Faux in Viva Glam II. Gre za čudovita nude odtenka, ki sta super za vsak dan in se lepo opazira na ustnicah.

On my Luxury Makeup wishlist currently are:

Yves Saint Laurent All Hours Foundation & Concealer

Hi girls !

This year flew by so fast and I've tested so many products, I can't believe it. Also I discovered many great items which I'd totally recommend to you. For my favorites post I left out some product categories just because I talked about them a lot in the past and they don't need another mention or I simply didn't find anything that wowed me (such as eye shadows, since I didn't use them that much this year). But here are some shiny, amazing goodies. See what I loved last year: here. Also I recommend you reading my post about my favorite mascaras: here.

L'oreal Infallible Mattifying primer

For many years I've neglected primers and such because my skin is too oily. However when I found this one, I used it every single day. It's a silicone based one and feels very smooth on the skin. It prepares my skin for makeup and leaves it velvety matt. Definitely recommend it for mixed/oily skin to make your makeup last longer. Also mentioned here.

Lancôme Effacernes Longue Tenue Concealer

I think I discover many great products when I shop. And that's when I bought this concealer since it gave so much pigmentation on my hand. It's the same on the skin as it covers everything beautifully, without heavy feeling. Also great for under the eyes. I talked about it in the post: here.

Hi girls.

After a haul from Italy, here I am again with an usual haul. As you know I tend not to buy many things, however I wanted to show you what I bought and maybe what's new out there.

Revlon Colorstay Foundation

Of course this is my favorite foundation (featured here.) and every time Müller has a 30% off offer, I buy it ! And now it even comes with a pump. 

These are just great to keep around when you need them. Also great for that time in the month to keep you lady bits fresh and clean.

UD All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray - Travel Size

Of course because I fell in love with this spray, I wanted one in a mini version for travel or keep in my bag. I love that the bottle is so slim and not heavy at all. And to let you know: it's the best setting spray I've tried so far.

Essence My Umbrella Contour Brush

I really like angled brushes to contour, bronze or add a blush. Though the ones I have from BH are a bit too fluffy, that's why I bought this one since it's a bit slimmer, however not stiff or too thin.

This is a new brand in our stores. It's actually by DM drugstore. The products look appealing, however I promissed myself not to buy as many products. That's why I focused on lip liners which I lack off. 210 is a nice nude, not too orange or pink (not the same as on the picture) and 490 is a dark, vampy purple one - perfect for fall. Lip liners are really creamy and easy to apply, however a bit drying (as most lip liners). I find them quite long lasting, though they leave a sticky feeling behing. Plus they have a sharpener hidden at the bottom.

Then I also chose a Brow Gel Filler since I've been using Catrice one for a year and wanted to try something new. The shade 020 (which seems lighter than 010) is a bit too dark for my eyebrows. Still, I'll make it somehow work. The formula dries really fast so if you make any mistakes you have to be quick. It definitely is long lasting.

Hi girls !
Today I wanted to share a few thoughts on makeup bits I've been trying lately and show them on my face as well. There have been so many new launches and these are not all that I've tested through but they seem the best option for a bronzed/coral makeup look.

L'Oreal Infallible Mattifying Base
I always start with a mattifying/hydrating cream, however then I mostly use a primer like this one. It's based on silicone so it makes a smooth, even complexion, great for applying makeup. Also it helps a bit with my oily skin.

Catrice HD Liquid Coverage Foundation - 010 Light Beige
There's been quite a lot of talk about this product amongst Slovenian beauty bloggers, so I had to try it. Also because it promises light weight texture and matt effect which I totally need on my oily skin. I'd say that it is not too matt and not too shiny. On my skin it lasts for a few hours without moving around and also it doesn't feel heavy at all. I do need to powder my skin as well and I don't feel like it could last up to 24h as it claims. The only thing I dislike about it is the packaging which has a pump to distribute the foundation, however the hole on the top is so small so you could make a lot of mess. Also I can't believe that the lightest shade almost matches my porcelain complexion.

Deborah Radiance Creator Highlighting Concealer - 02 medium
I've talked about this product before here. The coverage is not the best, however I like how easy it applies and blends. Shade 02 medium is perfect. It still brightens the area while being a bit peachy to neutralise purple undertone.

Ebelin Makeup Sponge
Such a great discovery ! I've shown you this sponge in my latest haul (here). So now I can tell you more about it. It's a really soft sponge, which I feel like is hard to find in the drugstore. While most people use it to apply foundation, I use it to blend my foundation at the end and make it look even or flawless. I definitely recommend it. Plus it looks cute/colorful.

Catrice Eyebrow Filler 
This is the only product I haven't changed in two years. So if you have any recommendations for a similar product, leave them below. If you're lazy with your brows, you definitely need it. It gives color to your brows with just a few swipes of a brush and then they look put together and really nice. You can read more about it here.

Freedom Makeup Pro Strobe palette
I've been using this contouring/strobing palette for some months now and it's really nice. Some shades are quite cool and look very natural on the skin. Also sometimes I like to highlight. For the price, I think it's a nice palette. You also get a contouring brush with it which is really useful and makes contouring easier ! You can get it on licila.si - here.

Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion - Eden
My favourite eye shadow primer when I need a really long lasting eye shadow. I won't say much but it does the job the best and has a bit of coverage which my veiny eyelids do need. Read a review here.

L'Oreal Miss Hippie mascara
Sometimes I just can't believe how many mascaras companies make. Though L'oreal makes one of my favorite ones. This one leaves your eyelashes with a quite natural, unruly look. If you really like to separate your lashes then this one might not be for you. However, it gives my lashes a nice amount of volume and lenghtens as well.

Bourjois Souffle de Velvet 01 Orangelique
Another novelty from Bourjois. There's been such a hype around Velvet Matt lipsticks, which I never tried and then these came out. The texture is thin, easy wearing and comfortable on the lips. It's more of a sheer colour but buildable. The finish is matt but it doesn't dry out my lips too much. Though the smell is so artificial - gladly it disappears quickly.

Urban Decay All Nighter Makeup Setting Spray
This year I struggled with makeup melting off of my face. I just have oily skin so I can't do much other than prime and set well. So I finally splurged on this spray to finish off my makeup. It doesn't leave you matt or keep oils away completely, however it definitely makes your makeup long lasting. Makeup can still wear off, however very evenly and there aren't any cracks in foundation. Also the spray is really fine and so easy to use.
