Ebelin četkice

Ovo su nove četkice koje su se pojavile u DM-u u Srbiji. Čim sam ih videla morala sam da ih kupim. Svidelo mi se kako izgledaju, a i bile su jeftine. Dakle kupila sam dve četkice jednu namenjenju senkama i jednu za puder ili korektor. Obe četkice imaju dlačice od veštačkih materijala. Celokupna izrada je dobra, drške su čvrste i lepo sedaju u dlan. Kao što vidite četkice dolaze u plastičnim vrećicama koje se otvaraju sa strane i koje mogu da se koriste ponovo na primer za put.

These are the new brushes that have appeared in DM stores in Serbia. As soon as I saw them I had to buy them. I liked how they look, and they were cheap. I bought two brushes, one for eyeshadows and one for powder or concealer. Both brushes are made ​​of artificial materials. The entire production is good, the handles are sturdy and sit nicely in the palm. As you can see, the brushes come in plastic pouches that open on one side and can be reused, for example for travel.

Četkica za senke je koso rezana, a poprečni presek joj je okrugao. Četkica je veoma gusta i čvrsta. Lako pokupi dosta senke i precizno je nanosi na kapak. Dobra je za početno blendanje, ali pošto je tvrda ja ipak uvek na kraju moram da doblendam nekom mekanom četkicom, jer je tako mnogo lakše. Pošto su vlakna plastična ova četkica realno može lepo da se koristi za precizno nanošenje korektora, jer je mala i čvrsta. Ja sam je platila 269 dinara. Izrada je dobra i prilikom pranja nije ispala ni jedna dlačica. Sve dlačice su iste dužine, ali su farbane pa izgledaju dvobojno. Četkica je solidna ali smatram da nije nešto što mora da se kupi. 

Eyeshadow brush is diagonally cut, and the cross-section it is round. Brush is very dense and firm. It picks up a lot of eyeshadow easily and applies it precisely to the eyelid. It is good for the initial blending, but I still always have to blend some more with a softer brush in the end, because it is so much easier to do it that way. Since it has plastic fibers it could be used for precise application of concealer, since it is small and firm. I paid 269 dinars for it. The design is good and when I washed it none of the fibers fell out. All the fibers are the same length, but they are painted and have two colours. This brush is nice but I think that it is something that you don't have to buy.

Četkica za korektor ili puder je veća, okrugla i ravno sečena. Dlačice su takođe farbane pa su zato dvobojne, ali su sve dlačice iste dužine. Izrada je takođe odlična i pri pranju ni jedna dlačica nije ispala. Kao i prva četkica i ova je veoma gusta i čvrsta. S druge strane bar za trećinu je površina ove četkice manja od četkica namenjennih za nanošenje pudera. Zato je nanošenje pudera na celo lice s njom malo sporiji proces. To mi se nekako nije svidelo. Nije loša za nonošenje pudera i krajnji rezultat izgleda ok, ali je prilično čvrsta pa mnogima neće biti previše prijatna za korišćenje. Ja sam u njoj najbolju namenu videla za nanošenje i blendanje korektora ako ga nanosim na neku veću površinu a ne samo na neku određenu nepravilnost. Pošto imam trenutno na licu neke manje oblasti sa promenama u boji zbog starih bubuljica onda je veličina ove četkice odlična da razmažem korektor na takva mesta. Platila sam je 569 dinara. Kao i kod prve četkice, mislim da i ova nije loša, ali da sam i bez nje u mom životu mogla da prođem.

Brush for concealer or powder is larger, round and straight cut. The fibers are also painted so they have two colours, but they are all the same length. The design is also great and none of the fibers fell out during the wash. Like the first brush this one is very thick and firm as well. On the other hand, it is at least a third smaller than the usual size for foundation bushes. Therefore, the application of powder to the entire face with it is a little slower process. I didn't like that. It is not bad for applying powder and the end result looks ok, but it's pretty firm, so for many people it won't be very pleasant to use. I found that the best way to use it is for applying and blending concealer, when you are not applying it to a to a  particular problem but to a larger area. Since I currently have some small areas with colour changes from old pimples, then the size of this brush is great for applying concealer to such areas. I paid 569 dinars for it. As with the first brush, I think this one is not bad as well, but I can go without it, too.

Šta mi se sviđa kod ovih četkica:

- cena,

- pakovanje,

- izrada,

- pri pranju ne ispadaju dlačice,

- mogu im se naći razne primene.

Šta mi se ne sviđa:

- veoma su tvrde,

- četkica za lice je mala za nanošenje pudera,

- kupuju se samo u DM-u.

Afrodita Oil Control - T-zone Mattifying Serum

Konačno sam našla malo vremena da pišem o matirajućem serumu od Afrodite koji sam kupila pre jedno dva meseca. Ja sam ga kupila u Crnoj Gori, no videla sam da ga ima u Lilly-ju i kod nas u Srbiji (kao i krema za lice iz iste linije) i da je cena seruma ista kao i u CG, a to je do 1000 dinara.

I finally found some time to write about mattifying serum from Afrodita that I bought about two months ago. I bought it in Montenegro, but I saw it also here in Serbia in Lilly (as well as the face cream from the same line) and the price of the serum is the same as in Montenegro, which is up to 1000 dinars.

Serum dolazi u kutiji u kojoj se nalazi bočica od 30ml. Ne sadrži paraben i parafin, nije komedogen i ima pH 5,5. Na njemu piše da matira, hidrira i balansira kožu lica. Pakovanje je super i ima odličnu pumpicu, koja istiskuje taman dovoljno proizvoda za jedno nanošenje. 

The serum comes in a box containing a bottle of 30ml. It doesn't contain paraben and paraffin. It isn't comedogenic and has a pH of 5.5. It is suppose to mattify, hydrate and balance the skin. The packaging is great, and the pump squeezes out  just enough product for one application.

Serum ima primetan miris limuna, koji je baš lep, no naravno ubrzno nakon nanošenja miris nestaje. Serum je malo gušće strukture, kao što možete da vidite na slici ispod. Nije uopšte masan i upijase odmah nakon nanošenja. Uopšte ne ostavlja belo po licu već odmah nestaje i upija se čim ga razmažete.

Serum has a noticeable lemon smell, which is very nice, but of course soon after application it disappears. Serum has a little denser structure, as you can see in the picture below. It is not greasy at all and get absorbed immediately after application. It doesn't leave white traces on the face and it's absorbed and disappears as soon as it is applied.

Moji utisci o ovom serumu su pozitivni. On pruža dovoljnu hidrataciju masnoj i mešovitoj koži preko dana i omekšava kožu. Odmah se upija pa ne mora da se čeka pre nanošenja šminke, a kao baza za šminku je super. Primetila sam da zaista matira kožu. Nisam baš dobra u proceni koliko sati više prođe pre nego što mi lice prosija, jer mi je svaki dan zaista drugačiji i to se nikad ne zna, ali sam zaista primetila da mi je lice duže matirano nakon ovog seruma u odnosu na to kada namažem običnu dnevnu kremu. Kada idem na posao ili znam da imam više obaveza u toku dana uglavnom koristim ovaj serum ujutru.

My impressions of this serum are positive. It provides enough hydration during the day for oily and mixed skin and softens the skin. It is immediately absorbed, so no need to wait before applying makeup, and as a makeup base it is great. I noticed that it really mattifies the skin. I'm not that good at saying exactly how many more hours passed before my face started to be shiny, because every day is really different and I never know what is next, but I really noticed that my face is matte longer after this serum compared to when I apply my regular day cream. When I go to work or I know I'll have more stuff to do during the day I mainly use this serum in the morning.

 Šta mi se sviđa:
- dostupnost,
- pakovanje,
- miris,
- odmah se upija,
- lako se nanosi,
- dobro hidrira,
- solidno matira kožu neko vreme.

Šta mi se ne sviđa:
- cena nije baš mala, mada nije ništa strašno.

Sephora set za obrve

Ja imam prilično tamne obrve pa ih retko popunjavam, mada krenula sam da to ipak radim kada imam jaču šminku na očima, jer mi se onda čini kao da mi obrve postaju malo neprimetne i ne slažu se sa ostatkom lica. Moje obrve su skoro crne boje i ne vuku na braon, pa sam pokušavala da nađem senke koje ne vuku na žućkasto braon  i to sam i našla u Sephora setu za obrve.

I have quite dark eyebrows and I fill them rarely, but I started doing that when I have a stronger makeup on my eyes, because it seems to me as if my eyebrows are a little unnoticeable and don't go well with the rest of the face in those situations. My eyebrows are almost black and don't pull to brown, so I was trying to find shadows without that yellowish brown undertone and that's what I found in Sephora eyebrow set.

Set dolazi u vrlo elegantnoj plastičnoj crnoj kutijici, koja je vrlo čvrsta. Unutra sadrži prilično veliko ogledalce, 2 senke u tamnijoj i svetlijoj nijansi koje imaju po 1g, kao i vosak, koji ima 0,4g.

The set comes in an elegant black plastic box, which is very firm. Inside it contains a rather large mirror, two shadows in darker and lighter shades that both have 1g and wax which has 0.4 g.

Takođe sa donje strane postoji i fiokica u kojoj se nalaze pinceta, kosa četkica i četkica kao kod maskare. Pinceta je dobra, kosa četkica solidna. Može da se koristi, ali je naravno gora od nekih koje možete pojedinačno da kupite. No bitno je da i ona radi dobro svoj posao, pa možete s njom da popravljate obrve u toku dana. Četkica kao kod maskare je isto dobra. Ceo set je veoma lepo urađen i ja sam jako zadovoljna.

Also, on the bottom there is a little drawer containing tweezers,  eyebrow brush and a brush like in a mascara. Tweezers are good, eyebrow brush solid. It can be used but it is of course worse than some brushes which you may purchase separately. But it's ok and you can easily use it to fix your eyebrows during the day. Mascara brush is also good. The whole set is very well done and I am very pleased with it.

Senke su dobre, fino pigmentovane, ali ne previše, što mi se sviđa jer lakše postižem prirodan izgled obrva. Ne krune se, mada ako koristite kosu četkicu iz seta dolazi do malog krunjenja kada zagrebete četkicom. Svetlija senka je baš siva i ja nju više koristim jer mi na moje tamne obrve korišćenje baš tamnih senki čini obrve pretamnim i to mi se ne sviđa. Tamnija nijansa je braonkasta, ali opet ne vuče mnogo na žuto što je super i daje prilično prirodnu boju obrvama. Vosak je dobar, ali mora da se lepo razmaže pri nanošenju da se ne bi videli beli tragovi voska po obrvama, što je na mojim tamnim obrvama primetno. Mada razmazivanje nije problem tako da će vosak lako biti neprimetan.

Shadows are good, nicely pigmented, but not too much, which I like because it easier to achieve a natural look of the ​​eyebrows. They don't crumble, but if you use a brush from the set they will crumble a little when you put a brush in the shadow. Lighter shade is fine gray color and I use it more often, since dark shadows make my already dark eyebrows look too dark, which I don't like. The darker shade is brownish, but still doesn't have a yellow undertone which is great and gives a very natural color to your eyebrows. Wax is good, but it has to be applied well so as not to leave traces of white wax on the eyebrows, which is on my dark eyebrows quite noticeable. Still, wax application isn't a problem so the wax easy looks unnoticeable.

Evo ih sada i swatchevi na ruci:

And now swatches on my arm:

Ja sam ovim setom prezadovoljna, a i cena za to šta sve dobijate u ovom setu uopšte nije prevelika.

Šta mi se sviđa:

- pakovanje,

- cena,

- sadrži i četkice,

- senke su hladnog podtona,

- ne krune se,

- lepo se nanose i blendaju,

- postojane su.

Šta mi se ne sviđa:

- dostupno samo u Sephori,

- Kosa četkica bi mogla da bude za nijansu bolja.

Inglot rasprodaja okruglih dopuna

Većina već zna da je Inglot rešio da prestane sa proizvodnjom okruglih dopuna za senke, ruževe, korektore i sl. Tim povodom naravno snizili su cene. U nekom trenutku sam bila do njihove prodavnice i pitala ih da li mogu da kupim samo dopune bez same palete, ali rekli su mi da ne mogu (kao i da ovo važi i za kvadratne dopune koje nisu na rasprodaji). No ja to ipak pitam svaki put kad odem do njih i poslednji put su mi rekli da ipak može. U međuvremenu su se skoro sve dopune rasprodale, možda ih je bukvalno ostalo 15ak vrsta. Ali zato su bile baš snižene. Jedna je koštala 378 din. Kupila sam dva ruža i jednu senku, koje ste već viđali po nekim look-ovima, ali sam sad rešila da vam kažem i moje opšte utiske.


Most of you already know that Inglot has decided to cease production of round  eyeshadows, lipsticks, concealers, etc. Because of that, of course, they have lowered their price. At one point I went to their store and asked if I could buy just eyeshadows without the palette, but they told me I couldn't. I still asked this same question every time I went there and the last time they told me I can (and that this is a general rule, and applies for the square eyeshadows, too). In the meantime, almost all eyeshadows and lipsticks were sold, maybe there was literally about 15 colours left. So their price was reduced. Each one I bought costed 378 din. I bought two lipsticks and one eyeshadow. You've already seen them in some of the looks i posted, but now I decided to tell you my general opinion about them.

Kupila sam senku broj 477, i ruževe 37 i 50. Senke sadrže 1.8g, a ruževi 1.2g. Gledam ove moje dragocene dopune i tako su divne volela bih da ih imam sve. Ili barem da ih imam više! :) Od sad će biti moguća kupovina samo kvadratnih dopuna koje imaju više grama i koštaju oko 900 dinara koliko se sećam. Jeste malo viša cena ali su dopune zaista velike i trajaće vam ekstremno dugo. 

Zaista su neprevaziđene. Senka je ultra postojana, ne kruni se ni malo pri nanošenju, a kada se namaže ni malo ne izgubi od svoje pigmentiranosti i iste je boje na kapcima i u pakovanju.

I bought eyeshadow number 477, and lipsticks 37 and 50. Eyeshadows contain 1.8g and lipsticks 1.2g. I look at these precious additions to my collection and they are so beautiful I'd like to have them all. Or at least have more of them! :) From now on it will be possible to purchase only square ones that have more grams and cost about 900 dinars as much as I remember. They have a little higher price but are really big and will last you an extremely long time.

They are really the best. The eyeshadow is ultra durable, doesn't crumble at all during application and when applied it doesn't lose any of its pigmentation, but stays the same color on the eyelids as it is in the packaging.

Ruževi su takođe potpuni hit. Nije mi jasno samo zašto su ova dva ruža ostala u nekoliko poslednjih koje ljudi nisu kupovali. Broj 50 je jako prirodna boja mesa, vuče malo na rože i izgleda prelepo i pridono na usnama. Broj 37 je divna crvena toplog podtona, čak malo vuče i na narandžasto. Oba ruža su jako kremasta i maziva, ali nisu previše tečna, već baš taman za ruž koji se nalazi ovako u dopuni i treba da se nanosi četkicom. Ultra su postojani, posebno ovaj crveni. Na usnama su mi bez problema ostali satima, crveni veroatno i do 5 sati. Naravno brišu se ako jedete i pijete, ali polako i ujednačeno. Ni malo se ne lepe za suve dolove. Evo ih swatch-evi:

Lipsticks are also a complete hit. I do not understand why did these two shades remain in the last few shades that people didn't buy. Number 50 is a very natural color of flesh, with a bit of pink and looks beautiful and natural on the lips. The number of 37 is a lovely red with warm undertones, and even pulls a little to orange. Both lipsticks are very creamy, but not too liquid. Just right for a lipstick that is supposed to be applied with a brush. They are extremely durable, especially the red one. On the lips they stayed for hours without a problem, red one probably even up to 5 hours. Of course they will be erased if you eat and drink, but slowly and evenly. They won't stick to the dry parts of the lips at all. Here are the swatches:

Jedna zanimljivost vezana za ove swatch-eve. Nakon što sam ih napravila bila sam u žurbi i pokušala sam samo vodom da ih operem i crveni nisam uspela, ostao je trag na koži. Ostavila sam ga tako i izjurila iz kuće. Vratila sam se kasno uveče kući i kada sam htela da se umijem i istuširam primetila sam da i dalje stoji taj swatch na ruci. Eto dokaza o super postojanosti!

One interesting thing about this swatches. After I made ​​them I was in a hurry and I tried to remove them just with water, but I couldn't and the red one still had a mark on my skin. I left it there and rushed out of the house. I returned home late in the evening and when I wanted to wash my face and take a shower, I noticed that this swatch still stands on my hand. So there's the evidence of its great durability!

Evo i na usnama, uz narvno ne baš precizno nanošenje crvenog ruža :)

And here they are on my lips with, of course, not so precise application of the red one. :)

I kao primer jedan look sa zelenom senkom koji sam već pokazivala ranije.

And as an example here's a look with this green eyeshadow that I already showed you earlier:

Šta mi se sviđa kod ovih dopuna:

- cena po kojoj sam ih kupila,

- postojanost,

- odlično se nanose,

- senka se ne kruni,

- ruževi se ujednačeno brišu i ne lepe za suve delove,

Going old school look

Spremala sam se pre neki dan da izađem iz kuće. Prilično sam žurila, i nisam previše mislila kako ću da se našminkam, ali sasvim slučajno mi se učinilo da je ipak ispalo lepo, pa sam morala da na brzinu to i uslikam. Iz daljine je ok, ali primetićete da se nisam baš preterano potrudila da jako precizno nanesem crveni ruž, jer se to ionako vidi samo na zumiranim slikama.

Malo da i ja nosim kombinaciju koju još možemo ponekad da vidimo na starim bakutama koje su ostale u prošlosti, ali ponekad i na devojkama u malo modernizovanoj varijanti. Plava senka i crveni ruž. :)

I was getting ready a few days ago to get out of the house. I was in a rush, so I didn't give much attention to my makeup, but by accident the end result seemed very nice, so I had to quickly take a few pictures. From the distance is looks ok, but you'll notice that I wasn't too bothered to apply red lipstick very precisely, because it is obvious only on zoomed pictures. I wear a combination that we can still sometimes see on old grannies that remained in the past, but also sometimes on girls in a bit modernized versions. Blue eyeshadow and red lipstick. :)

China Glaze - Turned Up Turquoise 70345

Pre nekoliko dana sam kupila ovaj China Glaze lak -Turned Up Turquoise. Slobodno mogu da kažem da je ovo jedan od čudnijih lakova koje imam. Sve što sam očekivala od njega ili nisam očekivala ispalo je suprotrno. Naterao me je da se začudim, da ga u trenutku mrzim i da ga na kraju obožavam.

Dakl,e kao i uvek ovaj CG lak sadrži 14ml i košta 387 dinara u Alexandar Cosmetics-u. Kada sam ga kupila igrom slučaja sam o njemu čitala i kod Jelene dan kasnije, pa sam mislila da znam šta da očekujem od laka...pevarila sam se!

A few days ago I got this China Glaze nail polish -Turned Up Turquoise. I can say that this is one of the strangest nail polishes I have. Everything I expected or didn't expect from it, turned up differently. It made me surprised, to the point that I hated it in the beginning and loving it at the end.

So, as always this CG nail polish contains 14ml and costs 387 dinars in Alexandar Cosmetics. When I bought it, I read about it in Jelena's blog a day later, so I kinda thought I knew what to expect from it ... was I ever so wrong!

Kao prvo ovaj lak je najgori lak za fotografisanje ikada. Uvek ispada mnogo plavlji nego što jeste, a zapravo u sebi ima dosta zelene. Takođe ispada i za nijansu svetliji. A sve sam probala. Kod jelene je takođe po meni malo nerealna boja na fotografijama, ali se vidi da je malo zeleniji. Kada sam pročitala njen posto o ovom laku mislila sam da se radi o običnom sjajnom svetlucavom laku, ali to nije slučaj Ovaj lak je potpuno mat, kao da sam ga premazala mat nadlakom. Tako da je ovo moj prvi mat lak. Zaista sam se iznenadila kada sam ga namazala i videla da je mat.

Firstly this is the worst nail polish for photographing ever. It always seem much bluer than it is, when in fact it has a lot of green in it. It also turns out and a bit brighter than it really is. And I've tried everything. In Jelenas post the color is also a little unrealistic in the photos, but you can see it's a little greener. When I read her post about this nail polish I thought that it was an ordinary shiny nail polish, but that's not the case. This lacquer is completely matte, as if I had applied a matte top coat. So this is my first real matte nail polish. I was really surprised when I applied it and saw that it was matte.

Pokušala sam da ga slikam pri različitim uslovima i sa različitim pozadinama da bi bolje dočarala njegovu boju, ali sam i pored toga bila ne baš najuspešnija.

Formula ovog laka je čudna, potrebna su dva sloja i to srednje debljine. Ekstremno se brzo suši tako da nemate vremena da baš mnogo mackate nokat inače ćete napraviti neravnine. Ali pošto je malo gušći nećete se umazati i nanošenje je jako precizno. Lak je skroz suv u bukvano 15ak sekundi od mazanja, tako da je ovo prvi lak koji neću uništiti nakon mazanja! Jeeee! Nakon drugog sloja ćelava mesta su pokrivena i lak izgleda fenomenalno! A pritom je i skroz suv i spremni ste za pokret.

I tried to take pictures in different conditions and with different backgrounds in order to better capture its color, but I still wasn't that successful.

The formula is a bit strange, you need two layers and of medium thickness. Extremely quick-drying so you do not have much time to apply it or you will make small bumps. But since it is a little thicker you won't make a mess and the application is very precise. It is completely dry in literally about 15 seconds from application, so this is the first nail polish that I won't destroy afterwards! Yeah! After the second layer bald spots are covered and it looks fabulous! And it is completely dry very fast and you're ready to go.

Nakon prvog sloja mislila sam - koja glupost! Nakon drugog sloja - koji hit od laka! Mazanje je brzo, a rezultat odličan. Moj omiljeni lak ikada!

After the first layer I thought - what a crap! After the second one - this is a great nail polish! Application is fast and the result is great. My favorite nail polish ever!

 Šta mi se sviđa kod ovog laka:
- boja,
- cena nije loša,
- formula,
- ekstremno brzo sušenje,

Šta mi se ne sviđa:
- dostupnost,
- mora jako brzo da se maže,
- ćelava mesta sa jednim slojem,
- nije fotogeničan.

Uskoro pišem o ovim proizvodima. Šta vam je zapalo za oko? :)

Soon I'll write about these products. What has caught your eye? :)

Vichy Normaderm Hyaluspot

Evo da i ja malo pišem o ovom Vichy proizvodu koji mnogi hvale -Vichy Normaderm Hyaluspot gelu. Ovaj gel dolazi u tubici koja sadrži 15ml proivoda. Namenjen je za ciljano nanošenje na bubuljicu, tako da će ova mala količina da vam traje pristojno dugo. Doziranje je lako zbog malog otvora na vrhu tube.

I've decided to write about Vichy product that many praise - Vichy Normaderm Hyaluspot gel. This gel comes in a tube containing 15ml of product. It is designed specifically for application to a pimple, so this small amount will last quite a long time. Dosage is easy due to the small opening on the top tube.

Čula sam kako je ovaj gel isušio lice devojkama koje su ga nanosile na veću površinu, no kod mene nije izazvao nikakvo isušivanje. Naravno napominjem da imam mešovitu i masnu kožu, pa ju je teško isušiti. Moji utisci o ovom gelu su pomešani. On mi je pomogao sa bubuljicama, ali definitivno ne tako brzo i lako kako su neki o njemu pisali. Manji problemi su se smirivali za oko 2 ili 3 dana, ali neke veće i dublje bubuljice ako izađu, nestajale su mnogo sporije. Nanosila sam ga ili samo uveče ili i uveče i ujutru u zavisnosti koliki problem imam. Možda je bilo potrebno naneti gel u debljem sloju. Mada i sa tim imam jedan problem. Ovaje gel se jako slabo upija, već stoji na koži i formira film koji se osuši, i ako pređete rukom preko njega sastruže se. Zato deblji sloj nikada nisam mogla da održim na licu već ga uvek nekako skinem, a i sama činjenica da se formira taj film mi se ne sviđa.

I heard that the gel dried out the face to girls who applied it on a larger area, but I didn't have this kind of problems. Of course, note that I have mixed and oily skin, so it is difficult to dry it out. My impressions of this gel are mixed. It helped me with pimples, but definitely not as fast and easy as some people say. Minor problems have calmed for about 2 or 3 days, but some of the larger and deeper pimples, if they appeared, disappear more slowly. I applied it before I go to sleep or in the morning and at night depending on the size of the problem. Perhaps it was necessary to apply a thicker layer. I have a problem with this, too. This gel absorbs poorly, it sits on the skin and forms a film that when dry can be scraped off accidentally if you touch your face. Because of this I could never have a thicker layer of this gel for long on my face. Also I really don't like the fact that it forms a film at all.

Mislim da ovaj gel morate da probate jer ga mnogi veoma hvale. Ja se s njim nisam baš našla i na meni ne deluje toliko dobro. Našla sam i dosta bolje stvari od ovoga, koje meni više odgovaraju. I pored svega toga ovaj gel i nije tako jeftin. Može da se kupi u bolje opremljenim apotekama kao i u Lilly-u.

I think that you have to try this gel because many praise it a lot. I didn't find it that effective on me. I also found much better things than this gel, that I prefer now. And besides all this, gel is also not so cheap. It can be purchased in better equipped pharmacies and Lilly.

Šta mi se sviđa kod ovog gela:

- dostupnost,

- pakovanje,

- doziranje,

- prilično brzo sanira manje probleme.

Šta mi se ne sviđa:

- cena,

- sporo sanira veće probleme,

- može da isuši kožu, ako je već suva i osetljiva,

- stvara film na koži koji se kruni.

Kineske trepavice look

U subotu je trebalo da se nasminkam malo jače, pošto mi je trebalo da šminka bude vidljiva i iz daljine, iliti sa scene. U ovakvim situacijama kada su uslovi ekstremni najbolje rešenje su po meni kineske trepavice. One imaju mnogo deblju liniju po kojoj se stavlja lepak i ne mrdaju se i pri najekstremnijim uslovima. Ja sam ih zalepila ujutru, a nisu se ni malo odlepile do večeri kada sam ih skinula. Napominjem da sam taj da bila fizički jako aktivna i preznojilo mi se lice barem 10 puta i to jako. A ništa nije mrdnulo, ni senke ni trepavice. E pa da vam pokažem kako sam se tad našminkala. Jake oči i nude usne, bar za preko dana da ljudi ne misle da sam potpuno luda jer sam toliko našminkana u rano jutro. Kasnije sam pojačala i usta. :)


On Saturday I was supposed to put on a little more makeup, and I needed it to be visible from a distance, aka theater stage. In such extreme conditions I think that the best solution are Chinese false eyelashes. They have a much thicker line that you put the glue on so they don't move even it the most extreme conditions. I applied them in the morning, and they didn't peel of even a little until the evening when I took them off. Please note that I was physically very active that day and my face was covered in sweat at least 10 times. Nothing has moved, nor eyeshadows nor eyelashes. Well, let me now show you my makeup. Strong eyes and nude lips, at least for during the day, so that people don't think I'm completely crazy because I have so much makeup on in the morning. Later I applied a bolder lipstick. :)

Toliko je vruće bilo taj dan da sam krenula da se kuvam dok sam se slikala i već na nekim slikama je krenulo lice malo da mi se sjaji...jedina loša strana leta. :)

It was so hot that day that I started do boil while I was taking these pictures, and you can see that my face was starting to get shiny in some of the photos...the only bad side of summer :)
