Najbolje i najgore u 2015. godini

Svi pišu postove ovog tipa oko nove godine, šta su voleli, a šta nisu. Ja volim ovakve postove i mislim da su vrlo korisni, zbog snalaženja u moru proizvoda kojima smo izloženi. Zato ću i ja da sumiram svoju godinu i pomenem proizvode koji su na mene ostavili najveći utisak.


Everyone is writing this sort of posts around the new year, what did they like and what didn't. I love these posts and I think they are very useful, because they can help us manage large amounts of products we are exposed to. So, I will now summarize my year and mention products that left a big impression on me.

Sama godina mi je proletela, da budem iskrena. Jedna je od onih godina u kojima se ništa revolucionarno ne desi. Bila je puna ogromne sreće, pa i velike tuge, ali to tako valjda uvek mora. Ne bunim se, zahvalna sam zbog sve sreće koja dođe u moj život. Prebrzo sve leti, ponekad me hvata i panika od toga, ali onda shvatim da to nije bitno. Bitno je da se radi na sebi i svom životu, i u procesu se bude što srećniji, pa i ako se ne stigne sve što se želelo i zamislilo...nema veze. Ali za sad da se vratim na kozmetiku i na ono što je glavni deo ovog mog pisanija. Nema mnogo proizvoda koji su me baš oborili s nogu ove godine. Bez prelistavanja bloga retko čega mogu da se setim, mada...bilo je tu po nešto i dobro.


This year just flew by me, to be honest. It is one of those years where nothing revolutionary happens. It was full of enormous happiness and also great sadness, but that's just how things have to be. I am not complaining, I'm grateful for all the happiness that comes into my life. Time flies too fast, and sometimes that makes me panic a bit, but then I realize that that is not important. It is important to work on ourselves and our lives, and in the process try to be as happy as we can, even if we don't do everything we have imagined ... it doesn't matter. But for now, let's get back to cosmetics which is the point of this whole post. There are not many products that just knocked me off my feet this year. Without scrolling through the my blog I couldn't remember most of them, but ... there were definitely some good products.

PREPARATIVA / COSMETICS

Dobro / Good:

- Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep i Garnier Miracle Sleeping Cream - su dve vrlo dobre noćne kreme koje sam volela.


- Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep and Garnier Miracle Sleeping Cream - are two very good night cream, which I loved.

- Nivea Q10 Plus Anti-Wrinkle Serum Active Perls - serum je dodatna nega, a ovaj mi je mnogo prijao.


- Nivea Q10 Plus Anti-Wrinkle Serum Active Perls - serum is extra care, and this one really suited me nicely.

- Vichy Normaderm Global Anti-Imperfections Hydrating Care - je krema dnevna za kontrolu problematične kože i kontrolu lučenja sebuma koju sam sa uživanjem koristila.


- Vichy Normaderm Global Anti-Imperfections Hydrating Care - a day cream that controls problematic skin and sebum secretion, which I used with pleasure.

- Avon Planet Spa Volcanic Iceland Warming Face Mask  i Freeman Honeydew & Camomile Sleeping Mask- zanimljive maske, jedna za čišćenje i piling kože sa zagrevajućim efektom, a jedna hranljiva, koju sam često koristila umesto noćne kreme.


- Avon Planet Spa Volcanic Iceland Warming Face Mask  i Freeman Honeydew & Camomile Sleeping Mask- interesting masks, one for cleaning and scrubbing the skin with warming effect, and the other is nutritious, so I often used it instead of night cream.

- Eucerin SPF50+ Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control i Vichy Ideal Soleil Bronze - Tan Optimizing Hydrating Spray SPF30 - kreme sa SPF-om za lice i telo koje sam mnogo volela u toku leta.


- Eucerin SPF50+ Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control i Vichy Ideal Soleil Bronze - Tan Optimizing Hydrating Spray SPF30 - SPF cream for face and body that I loved very much during the past summer.

- White Smile trakice za izbeljivanje zuba - odlično obavljaju posao.

- White Smile trakice za izbeljivanje zuba - they get the job done well.

Oduševljenje / Amazing:

- Eucerin pH5 Hautschutz Duschol - ulje za tuširanje koje me je radovalo sa svakim korišćenjem. Jedino pravo oduševljenje ove godine.

- Eucerin pH5 Hautschutz Duschol - shower oil that I loved with each use. The only real excitement this year.

Razočaranje / Disappointment:

- Nivea Baby Caring Oil - šokirana da je ulje za bebe na parafinskoj osnovi. A i ne upija se i ne neguje. Hm.


- Nivea Baby Caring Oil - I was shocked that the baby oil has a paraffin basis. And it also isn't absorbed and it doesn't nourish. Hm.

DEKORATIVA / MAKEUP

Dobro / Good:

- Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder - svi ga hvale pa eto da počnem i ja.


- Rimmel Stay Matte Pressed Powder - everyone praises it, so I can start, too.

- Golden Rose Velvet Matte 22 - ljubav na prvo mazanje. Dobra formula i boja.


- Golden Rose Velvet Matte 22 - love at the first application. Great formula and colour.

- Aura Fina Matte Ruževi - odlični mat ruževi. Jedina moja je želja više braonkasto mesnatih nijansi kojih nema (osim jedne).


- Aura Fina Matte Ruževi - excellent matte lipsticks. My only wish is more brownish meaty shades which lack in this current line (there is only one).

- Inglot Freedom System senke - kupila sam ih nekoliko, mada sam za sad pisala samo o jednoj. Divne su!

- Inglot Freedom System eye shadows - I bought a few of them, although I just wrote about one of them, for now. They are amazing!

Razočaranje / Disappointment:

- Aura Prime ME! Eye Shadow Base - mnogo mi je žao što ova baza nije dobra. Tačnije manjka joj samo što ne daje senkama trajnost. Ali dovoljno da mi ne padne na pamet opet da je kupim.


- Aura Prime ME! Eye Shadow Base - I'm so sorry that this base is not good. Specifically it lacks giving eye shadows durability. But that is more than enough for me to not even think about buying it again.

I to bi bilo to! A da se za kraj malo vratim na teme koje nisu vezane za blog i kozmetiku nego za život. Najmudrije i najlepše reči ove godine, čula sam nedavno. Najbolji opis ljubavi ikad, a što je možda i očekivano, došao je od male devojčice, jer samo deca mogu da tako jednostavno i tačno opišu stvari. Parafraziram: Ljubav je kada delimo sve što moramo da delimo, a ono što ne moramo želimo. I tačka. Te od mene za vašu sledeću godinu, a i moju, ide samo jedna želja: Delite.

And that is it! In the end I want to go back to topics unrelated to this blog and cosmetics, but topics about life. Wisest and most beautiful words this year, I've heard recently. The best description of love ever, and as expected, it came from a little girl, because only children can describe things so simply and accurately. I'm paraphrasing: Love is when we share everything we have to share, and what we don't, we want to. And period. So the only thing I want to wish you an myself in the next year is: Share.

Kanta Vol. 20

Nakupilo se još proizvoda koji su potrošeni i koje sam većinom obožavala. Zato ću odmah preći na stvar i brzo proći kroz utiske.

I accumulated enough spent products which I mostly loved. So I'll cut to the chase and quickly go through my impressions.

- Eucerin ulje za tuširanje - fenomenalan proizvod za tuširanje koji sam obožavala! Divno miriše, neguje, čisti. Ima sve a nije ni skupo, košta oko 566 dinara. Moja ocena 5/5.

- Vichy Normaderm Global Anti-Imperfections Hydrating Care - odlična krema za mešovitu i masnu kožu, koja neguje, matira, smanjuje nepravilnosti i lučenje sebuma. Cena je 1739 dinara a moja ocena 5/5.

- La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo + - nenadmašiva krema protiv bubuljica. Apsolutni HG. Cena 1392 dinara, a moja ocena je naravno 5/5.

- Eucerin In Shower Oil - phenomenal product which I loved! It smells great, nourishes, cleanses. It has everything and it's not expensive. It costs about 566 RSD. My score is 5/5.

- Vichy Normaderm Global Anti-Imperfections Hydrating Care - excellent cream for mixed and oily skin, which nourishes, mattifies and reduces irregularities and sebum. Price is 1739 RSD and my score is 5/5.

- La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo + - Unbeatable anti-pimple cream. Absolute HG. Price 1392 RSD and my score is of course 5/5.

- Nivea Cellular Eye Illuminator - fina kremica koja dobro neguje regiju oka i veoma blago ujednačava boju i smanjuje vidiljivost podočnjaka. Cena joj je 1269 dinara, a moja ocena je 5/5.

- Garnier Miracle Sleeping Cream - odlična noćna krema koju sam mnogo volela, i koja je super negovala moju kožu. Ima sve preporke. Cena joj je 919 dinara, a ocena 5/5.

- Bioten Cleansing Gel Normal / Combination Skin - divna mirišljava umivalica, jeftina i ne isušuje, a lepo čisti. Košta 275 dinara, a moja ocena je 5/5.

- Garnier Pure Active micelarna voda - solidna micelarna koja dobro uklanja šminku, ali u sebi sadrži alkohol. Inače je istog sastava kao roza Garnier micelarna, pa preporučujem da nju pre kupite. Cena je 499 dinara i ocena 5/5.

- Nivea Cellular Eye Illuminator - nice cream that nurtures eye region and very gently equalizes colour and reduce the visibility of dark circles. Price is 1269 RSD and my score is 5/5.

- Garnier Miracle Sleeping Cream - an excellent night cream which I really loved, and that was great in caring for my skin. It has all my recommendations. Price is 919 RSD and score 5/5.

- Bioten Cleansing Gel Normal / Combination Skin - wonderful fragrant cleansing gel, cheap, does not dry the skin out, and cleanses well. It costs 275 RSd and my score is 5/5.

- Garnier Pure Active Micellar Water - not bad micellar water that removes makeup well, but it contains alcohol. Otherwise, it has the same composition as pink Garnier micellar water, so I recommend that one first. Price is 499 RSD and my score 5/5.

A sada šminka i dva potpuno suprotna utiska:

- Avon Eyeshadow Primer - najbolja baza ikada. Nezamenljivi HG iako isprobavam povremeno i druge baze. Ni jedna joj nije ni do kolena. Puna cena je oko 600 dinara, mada je često snižena. Ocena 5/5.

- Golden Rose Perfect Lashes Great Waterproof Mascara - loša vodootporna maskara, koja ima glupavu formulu koja slepljuje trepavice. Koliko god se trudila nisam uspela da je nanesem da to izgleda zaista dobro. Cena joj je samo 200 dinara, a moja ocena iy posta je 4/5 mada bih joj sada možda dala i manje.

Now makeup and two completely opposite impression:

- Avon Eyeshadow Primer - the best eyeshadow base ever. Irreplaceable HG, although I occasionally try out some other bases. Non of them are even close to this one. The full price is around 600 RSD, bu it is often reduced. Score 5/5.

- Golden Rose Perfect Lashes Great Waterproof Mascara - bad waterproof mascara, which had a very bad formula that sticks eyelashes together. No matter how much I tried I couldn't apply it to get a really good look. Its price is only 200 RSD and my score from the post is 4/5, but I might even give it a lower score now.

I za kraj dva zanimljiva i malo drugačija proizvoda:

- White Smile trakice za izbeljivanje zuba - za samo 7 dana daju neverovatan efekat izbeljivanja koji traje i traje. Odličan način da za samo 1375 dinara imate ponovo bele zube. Moja ocena je 4/5.

- Weleda Citrus Deodorant - prirodan dezodorans sa mirisom citrusa, osvežava i sprečava neprijatne mirise. Ne sadrži aluminijum, ali zbog alkohola pecka ako se prska na iziritiranu kožu. Cena je 720 dinara, a moja ocena 4/5.

And finally two interesting and a bit different products:

- White Smile teeth whitening strips - in just 7 days they produce an incredible whitening effect that lasts and lasts. A great way to have white teeth again, and all that for just 1375 RSD. My score is 4/5.

- Weleda Citrus Deodorant - deodorant with natural citrus scent which refreshes and prevents odors. It does not contain aluminum, but because of alcohol it stings when sprayed on irritated skin. Price is 720 RSD and score 4/5.

White Smile trakice za izbeljivanje zuba

Ako zaista želite da izbelite zube, zubne paste koje u nazivu sadrže "whitening" vam neće pomoći. One mogu da izbele zube koji su u toku dana potamneli od kafe ili čaja, ali u realnosti neće izbeliti samu boju koju vaši zubi trenutno imaju. Pored izbeljivanja kod zubara, u drogerijama su sada dostupne i trakice za izbeljivanje zuba kod kuće - White Smile. Izbeljivanje sa ovim trakicama traje 7 dana, a set pored 7 kesica sa trakicama, sadrži i uputstvo, ogledalce, i karton sa upoređivanje boje zuba.


If you really want to whiten your teeth, toothpastes with names that contain "whitening" won't help. One can use them to whiten teeth that are darker because of coffee or tea drunk that day, but in reality they won't whiten the real colour of your teeth. In addition to whitening at the dentist, drug stores now also offer whitening strips so we can do this at home - White Smile. Whitening strips should be used for 7 days, and in addition to a set of 7 bags with whitening strips, packaging also contains information book, a mirror, and a comparison card with teeth colours.

Sve ovo dolazi zapakovano u kartonskoj kutiji, a cena seta je 1375 dinara. Ne znam koliko izbeljivanje zuba kod zubara košta, ali pretpostavljam da je skuplje od ove cene. Svaka kesica sadrži dve trakice na kojima se nalazi gel, čiji je glavni sastojak hidrogen peroksid, koji koriste i zubari pri izbeljivanju zuba. On uklanja kamenac i izbeljuje zube, a nije štetan za organizam i samim tim tokom nošenja trakca, pljuvačku možete da gutate i da se ponašate sasvim normalno. Trakice mogu da koriste svi, mada je preporučljivo da imate iznad 18 godina i da niste trudni, ili ako znate da ste alergični na hidrogen peroksid.


All this comes packed in a cardboard box, and the price of the set is 1375 RSD. I do not know how much teeth whitening costs at the dentist, but I guess it is more expensive than this prices. Each bag contains two strips with whitening gel, whose main ingredient is hydrogen peroxide, which is used by dentists, too. It removes plaque and bleaches teeth. It is not harmful and thus you can swallow your saliva during use and act normally. Strips can be used by all, although it is recommended that you are over 18 and that you are not pregnant, or if you know you are allergic to hydrogen peroxide.

Trakice se koriste jednom ili dva puta dnevno, a ja sam odlučila da ih koristim jednom dnevno. Prvo se stavlja trakica na donje zube, a zatim i na gornje. U principu, treba se truditi da što manji deo trakice ide preko desni, mada hidrogen peroksid neće loše uticati na desni. Zbog mogućeg oštećenja desni prilikom pranja zuba, trakice ne bi trebalo koristiti odmah nakon pranja zuba. Trakice sam na zubima držala 30 minuta, ali one mogu da se ostave i do sat vremena. Posle pola sata već krene da mi bude naporno da mirno držim zatvorena usta i pljuvačka krene više da mi se nakuplja, a nisam imala ni vremena da ih duže držim.

Strips are used once or twice a day, and I decided to use them once a day. First, you put the bottom one, and then the top one. In general, you should try to place them so they cover your gums the least, although hydrogen peroxide will not harm your gums. Because of the potential gum damage when you brush your teeth, whitening strips should not be used immediately after brushing the teeth. They should stay on the teeth for 30 minutes up to an hour. After half an hour I usually removed them, since I had no more patience to keep my mouth shut and saliva starts accumulating more after half an hour. Also, I did not have time to keep them on for much longer.

Sam gel nema nikakav poseban ukus, postoje možda male naznake mentola u ukusu. Već nakon prvih trakica primetila sam da su mi zubi belji, a primetili su i ljudi oko mene. Sa entuzijazmom sam nastavila da ih koristim. Moguće je da odmah nakon korišćenja trakica i ispiranja ostatka gela vodom, primetite na nekim zubima mrlje koje su još belje od ostatka zuba. To se dešava, čini mi se, na delovima zuba gde vam je gleđ malo oštećena, jer se kod mene dešavalo na mestima gde mi je proteza koju sam nosila kao mala dodirivala zube. Bez bojazni, te mrlje veoma brzo nestanu i boja zuba se ujednači. Ove bele mrljice možda možete da primetite na slici na gornjim dvojkama, pošto sam zube slikala odmah nakon korišćenja.


The gel doesn't have any particular taste, there might be small hints of menthol in it. After using the first pair of strips I noticed that my teeth are whiter, and so did people around me. I enthusiastically continued using them. You might notice right after removing the strips and washing off the rest of the gel with water, that some parts of the teeth are whiter than the rest. It seems to me that this happens on the parts of the teeth where your enamel is slightly damaged, because in my case it happened on the places where my braces I wore as a little girl were touching my teeth. Don't be afraid, these stains quickly disappear and the colour of the teeth equalises. These white specks can be seen on the photo on my upper twos, since I took photos right after using the whitening strips.

Nakon 7 dana zubi su mi bili drastično belji. Recimo da sam na kartici koja ima boje zuba od 1 do 12, bila oko 8, dok sam na kraju tretmana došla do 2 ili možda čak i 1. Pokušala sam da u istim uslovima slikam zube svaki dan, pa sam ih slikala pod veštačkim svetlom. Ipak nisam uspela da u potpunosti dobijem jednake slike, što se vidi po boji kože na slikama ali i pored toga možete da vidite drastično poboljšanje, posebno ako obratite pažnju na trakicu za upoređivanje dole. Mada moram priznati da trakica tek nije fotogenična. Tako da ostaje vam da mi verujete na reč da mi se boja zuba popravila za 6 nijansi i da sam ja prezadovoljna, i da su čak i ljudi oko mene primetili da su mi zubi veoma belji u odnosu na pre.


After 7 days, my teeth were dramatically whiter. Let's say that when I metached my teeth to the comparison card which has teeth colours form 1 to 12 I was about 8, but when I came to the end of the treatment I was somewhere around 2 or even 1. I tried to take photos in the same conditions every day, so I took them under artificial light. Still, I haven't been able to make completely the same images, as you can seen by the colour of my skin in the pictures. Still you can see a drastic improvement, especially if you pay attention to comparison card below. Although I must admit that this card was particularly non-photogenic. So you are left to trust me on my word that my teeth colour improved around 6 shades and that I am very happy, and that even people around me noticed that my teeth are much whiter.
