Essence Blogger' Beauty Secrets - The Glow Must Go On Bronzing & Highlighting Palette

Essence ima fenomenalan koncept limitiranih kolekcija šminke koje se vrlo često smenjuju. Uvek mi je zabavno da gledam šta je novo stiglo u prodavnice. Po nekim drogerijama u skorije vreme se pojavila jedna odlična kolekcija - Bloggers' Beauty Secrets. U njoj ima četiri palete i četiri laka za nokte. Sve palete su vrlo različite. Jedna je namenjena obrvama i očima, kod jedne je glavno rumenilo ali ima i senke i balzam, jedna ima nekoliko senki, ajlajner i sjaj, a poslednja je namenjena preplanulom tenu i ima nekoliko senki, bronzer i hajlajter.

Essence has a phenomenal concept of limited collections of makeup which often change. It's always fun to watch what's new in stores. Some drug stores recently got a great collection - Bloggers' Beauty Secrets. It contains four palettes and four nail polishes. All pallets are very different. One is intended for eyebrows and eyes, in one there is a blush but also eyeshadows and a lip balm, one has a few eyeshadows, eyeliner and gloss, and the last one is intended for complexion and has several eyeshadows, bronzer and highlighter.

Iako mi je moram priznati bilo teško da se odlučim jedna paleta se za mene ipak izdvojila na prvi pogled, a reč je o The Glow Must Go On Bronzing & Highlighting Palette. Cena ove kao i ostalih paleta je 679 dinara. Za početak oduševljena sam i pakovanjem jer su sve palete od sjajnog kartona i zatvaraju se na magnet. Takođe unutra se nalazi i ogledalo i četkica (mada sama četkica nije od neke prevelike koristi, ali u slučaju nužde može se iskoristiti). Moja paleta sadrži 14.5g.

Although I have to admit it was difficult to decide which one is the best, one of them did separate at first glance and that is The Glow Must Go On Bronzing & Highlighting Palette. The price of this and other palettes is 679 RSD. To begin with I am thrilled with the packaging since all pallets are mare of shiny cardboard and close with a magnet. Also there is a mirror and a brush inside (although brush itself is not of much use, but in case of emergency it can be used). My palette contains 14.5g.

E pa da počnemo sa mojom Bronzing & Highlighting Palette i njenim sadržajem:

- Cinnamon Eyeshadow - svetlija narandžasta mat senka, blago ciglaste boje i bez ikakvih drečavih tonova. Savršena za pregib kapka i ublažavanje prelaza ka obrvama.

- Sandalwood Eyeshadow - tamnija braon mat senka, topla i sa crvenim i narandžastim tonovima u sebi. Odlično se slaže sa ostalim senkama i divno uokviruje oči i naglašava spoljni ugao oka.

Well, let's start with my Bronzing & Highlighting Palette and its content:

- Cinnamon Eyeshadow - bright orange matte eyeshadow, with a bit of brick red and without any flashy tones. Perfect for crease and softening the transition to the eyebrows.

- Sandalwood Eyeshadow - dark brown matte eyeshadow, warm and with red and orange tones in it. It goes well with other eyeshadows and beautifully frames the eyes and highlights the outer corner of the eye.

- Honey Glow Highlighter - savršen hajlajter koji se naravno može koristiti i kao senka zbog odlične pigmentacije. Osnova mu je bela ali u sebi sadrži mnogo zlatnog šimera. Šimer vuče na žuto i nekako se stapa sa tenom i savršeno presijava. Ovo je možda i majlepši hajlajter na mojoj koži od svih koje sam probala.

- Honey Glow Highlighter - the perfect highlighter, which can of course be used as an eyeshadow because of its excellent pigmentation. The base is white and it contains a lot of golden shimmer. Shimmer has yellow colour and somehow blends with my complexion and perfectly shines. This may be the most beautiful highlighter on my skin of all that I've tried.

- Glowing Bronzer - glavni deo palete. Sastoji se od tri šimeraste braon nijanse koje su odlično uklopljene. Vrlo se razlikuju pa kada se koriste odvojeno imate tri veoma razlišite senke, a kada se koriste zajedno stapaju se u savršenu nijansu za oči ili lice. Ja sve tri nijanse koristim i za lice i za oči, pošto su nijanse takve da se apsolutno mogu koristiti na oba načina. Takođe im je i pigmentacija odlična pa se lako koriste kao senke, ali zato kada ih koristite kao bronzer morate imati laku ruku i pažljivo raditi.

- Glowing Bronzer - the main part of the palette. It consists of three shimmery brown shades that are perfectly combined. Very different, so when used separately you have three very unique eye shadows, and when used together they blend into a perfect shade for your eyes or face. I use all three shades for the face and eyes, as the shades are such that they can absolutely be used in both ways. They are also perfect in pigmentation, so they can easily be used as eye shadows, but because of the same reason if they are used as a bronzer, you must have easy hand and work carefully.

Najtamnija nijansa je neutralnog podtona, a boja joj je između boje mesa i braonkaste, srednja je topla i vuče malo na bakarnu, dok je najsvetlija nijansa hladna i blago vuče na roze. Sve tri nijanse su odlične samostalno ili u kombinacijama i na očima i na licu.

The darkest shade has neutral undertones, and colour somewhere between flesh and brown. Medium shade is warm and pulls a little on copper, while the lightest shade is cold and slightly pinkish. All three shades are great alone or in combination, on the eyes and the face.

Malo je reći da sam zaljubljena u ovu paletu. Sve senke se ne krune ni malo, vrlo su pigmentovane, meke i lako se nanose. Na licu su trajne i prelepo izgledaju. Takođe konačno imamo potpuno samostalnu malu paletu koja sadrži dobar odabir i mat i šimerastih nijansi. Prosto sve što sam od palete ikada tražila ova to ima. A takođe je i vrlo jeftina.

It seems to weak to say that I am in love with this palette. All eye shadows do not crumble, they are very pigmented, soft and easy to apply. On the face they are durable and look beautiful. Also, here we finally have a fully independent small palette that contains a good selection and matte and shimmery shades. It just has everything I ask of one palette. And it is also very cheap.

Nedavno sam kupila ovu paletu, ali sam namerno požurila sa recenzijom dok je ova limitirana kolekcija još u prodaji. Morala sam da vam skrenem pažnju da odete i pogledate ove palete, jer su zasta predivne.

I bought this palette recently, but I deliberately rushed to review it, while this limited collection can still be found in stores. I had to draw your attention, so you can go and look at these palettes in stores, as they are really beautiful.

Da li ste primetili ovu kolekciju u prodavnicama? Šta mislite o njoj? Da li ste nešto iz ove kolekcije već probali?

Letnji New In

Dugo nisam pisala ovakav post, posebno zato što sam slabo i kupovala pa nije bilo noviteta na gomili. Bacila sam se na pomno trošenje onoga što imam iako je to uvek nezahvalan posao, jer se uvek skupi mnogo novih stvari u međuvremenu. Odlučila sam da proberem par noviteta i da vam pokažem koje recenzije možete uskoro da očekujete i da mi naravno sugerišete ako neku želite što pre. 

It has been long time since I wrote this type of post, especially because I didn't by a lot so there weren't many new things in one place. I threw myself to carefully spending what I already have, although that's always a crappy job, because I always get many new thing in the meantime. I decided to chose a couple of new thing and show you which reviews you can expect soon and you can of course suggest if you want some of those as soon as possible.

Od šminke tu je nekoliko stvarčica:

- Golden Rose Longstay Gel Eyeliner (02 Deep Brown) - navukla me Marija (Head In The Clouds) i drago mi je da me je navukla! Uskoro recenzija.

- Kiko Eyebrow Marker & Kiko Eyebrow Fibers - dva proizvoda za stilizovanje obrva o kojima ćete čitati veoma uskoro.

- Essence The Glow Must Go On Bronzing & Highlighting Palette - o ovom malom čudu pišem možda i u sledećem postu. Dugo nisam bila ovoliko oduševljena!

From makeup we have a few new things:

- Golden Rose Longstay Gel Eyeliner (02 Deep Brown) - I bought it because of Marija (Head In The Clouds) and I'm glad that I was hooked! Review soon!

- Kiko Eyebrow Marker & Kiko Eyebrow Fibers - two products for styling eyebrows you will read about very soon.

- Essence The Glow Must Go On Bronzing & Highlighting Palette - you'll read about this little miracle maybe even in the next post. I haven't been impressed this much for a long time!

Od Nivea proizvoda moram da izdvojim:

- Nivea Care višenamenska krema - jedan lep novitet.

- Nivea Refreshin Cleansing Milk - obožavam i tačka!

From Nivea products I have to show you:

- Nivea Care Multipurpose Cream - a nice new product.

- Nivea Refreshin Cleansing Milk - i love this thing!

Od Eucerina takođe imam dosta noviteta ali izdvojiću samo četiri:

- Eucerin DermoPURIFYER dnevna i noćna krema - linija za problematičnu kožu o kojoj ću uskoro pisati, a biće i poklona.

- Eucerin Sun Fluid SPF50+ - lagana tekstura za lice uz visoku zaštitu.

- Eucerin Anti-Transpirant Intensive - zaboravila sam da ga ubacim na ovu sliku ali ga ima na grupnim fotografijama. Mnogo se znojim a ovaj dezodorans trebalo bi da sprečava znojenje u većoj meri od standardnih dezodoransa. Baš me zanima hoće li uspeti nešto što ni jedan dezodoran do sad nije uspeo, ali naravno bez zapušavanja pora.

From Eucerin I have a lot of new things but I will show you just four:

- Eucerin DermoPURIFYER day and night cream - line for problematic skin, which I'll write about soon, and there will be some gifts, too.

- Eucerin Sun Fluid SPF50 + - light texture for the face with a high level of protection.

- Eucerin Intensive Anti-Transpirant - I forgot to put it on this photo but you can see it on the group photos. I sweat a lot and this deodorant should prevent sweating to a greater extent than conventional deodorants. I wonder if it will be able to do something no deodorant so far could, but without clogging pores.

Poželela sam da se malo podsetim mirisa iz detinjstva. Moram priznati da me raduje svaki put kada ga mažem:

- Top Ten Carotene Sun krema za telo SPF20 i SPF 40.

I wanted to remind myself of  childhood scents. I have to admit I'm happy every time I'm applying it:

- Top Ten Carotene Sun body cream SPF20 and SPF 40.

Na kraju tu je još jedan brend koji mnogo volim - Vichy:

- Vichy Ideal Soleil Ultra-Melting Milk-Gel for Wet and Dry Skin SPF 30 - nova formula za najbolju zaštitu u svim uslovima. Videćemo kako će se pokazati.

- Vichy Ideal Soleil 3-in-1 Tinted Anti-Dark Spots Care SPF 50+ - još jedan novitet, ali za lice. Obojena krema sa visokim faktorom zaštite.  

Finally here is another brand that I love very much - Vichy:

- Vichy Ideal Soleil Ultra-Melting Milk-Gel for Wet and Wry Skin SPF 30 - a new formula for the best protection in all conditions. We'll see how good it is.

- Vichy Ideal Soleil 3-in-1 Anti-Dark Spots Tinted Care SPF 50+ - another novelty, but for the face. A coloured cream with a high sun protection factor.

Da li ste probali neki od mojih noviteta? Imate li želje o čemu prvo da pišem?

Have you tried some of my new stuff? Do you have any suggestions what to write about first?

Eucerin Sun Creme - CC Creme (Dark)

E pa da malo razbijemo ovaj niz postova sa šminkom. Danas ćemo malo o kremama, i to o novitetu za ovo leto koji nam dolazi iz Eucerina - CC krema sa SPF 50+.


Well, lets break a bit the series of makeup posts. Today a little about creams, to be precise about a new product which comes from Eucerin - CC Cream with SPF 50+.

Ova CC krema može se naći u dve nijanse. Ja imam tamniju, koja je po pravilu kod Eucerina nekako rozikasta. Svetlije nijanse nemaju to roze u sebi već su žućkaste. No srećom Eucerinove obojene kreme imaju vrlo malo prekrivanje, što je slučaj i sa ovom novom CC kremom, tako da nije potrebno da nijansa bude ista kao vaš ten. Inače cena ove kreme je 1308 dinara (u Srbotrade apoteci koja je drastično najjeftinija).


This CC cream can be found in two shades. I have darker one, which is usually, in case of Eucerin, kind of pinkish. Lighter shade do not have pink in them, but they are more yellowish. Luckily Eucerin coloured creams have very little coverage, as is the case with this new CC cream, so the cream does not have to be the same shade as your complexion. The price of this cream is 1308 RSD (in Srbotrade pharmacy, which is the cheapest).

Krema dolazi u kartonskoj kutiji u kojoj je plastična bočica sa pumpicom i dnom koje se podiže, za maksimalno iskorišćenje proizvoda. Najviše volim ovakva praktična i higijenska pakovanja, Sadrži 50 ml. Ima veoma visok faktor zaštite SPF 50+, a pored zaštite od sunca takođe i ujednačava ten.


The cream comes in a cardboard box in which is a plastic bottle with a pump and raisable bottom, for maximum utilization of the product. I like this kind of practical and hygienic packaging. It contains 50 ml. CC cream has a very high protection factor SPF 50+, and in addition to protection from the sun it also evens out the complexion.

Formula ove kreme je lagana, a Eucerin čak obećava i matiranje. Ne sadrži parfeme i parabene i nije komedogena. Pored visokih UVA/UVB filtera ova CC krema sadrži i Likokalkon A koji je snažan antioksidans i štiti ćelije od slobodnih radikala i oštećenja koja mogu nastati izlaganjem suncu. Takođe krema sadrži i Glicirizinsku kiselinu koja štiti DNK i podstiče njegovu obnovu.

The formula of this cream is light and Eucerin even promises mattification. It does not contain perfumes and parabens and isn't comedogenic. In addition to the high UVA / UVB filters, this CC cream contains Licochalcone A which is a powerful antioxidant and protects cells from free radicals and the damage caused by sun exposure. It also contains glycyrrhizic acid, which protects DNA and promotes its renewal.

Što se tiče mojih utisaka ja efekat matiranja nisam primetila ni u tragovima. Istina ova krema ne tera moju kožu da se više i brže masti. Ali zako kada je nanesem na kožu sama krema je nekako sjajna i lice mi nije ni približno mat. S druge strane volela bih i da je ujednačavanje tena malo bolje. Vrlo je slabo i skoro neprimetno kada se krema lepo razmaže po koži. Ipak odlično sarađuje sa puderima za matiranje sa kojima na licu izgleda odlično. Tekstura kreme je lagana i nekako blago penasta. Lepo se i brzo razmazuje. Što se tiče zaštite od sunca tu zasta nemam nikakve zamerke. Krema odlično radi svoj posao.


As for my impressions, I cannot notice any mattifying effect. Still. this cream does not make my skin become oily faster. But when I aplly it on the skin the cream itself is a shiny and my face is not matte at all. On the other hand I also wish that the coverage was a little better. It is very weak and almost invisible when the cream is nicely smeared on the skin. Still, the cream cooperates nicely with pressed powders ant this combination makes my face look great. Texture is light and somewhat mousse like. It is beautifully and quickly applied to the skin. As far as protection from the sun is concerned, I have no objections. The cream is doing its job well.

Krema generalno nije loša, na koži se ne oseća i nije teška. Ipak meni je lično bolja njihova prošlogodišnja krema Eucerin Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control iako ona nije obojena. Ova CC krema biće dobra svim tipovima kože, mada će masnokoci kao ja ipak morati da posegnu za kamenim puderima ako ne žele da se sjaje od ranog jutra.

The cream is generally not bad, you cannot feel it on the skin and it is not heavy. But I personally like last year's cream much more - Eucerin Sun Gel-Creme Oil Control, although it is not coloured. This CC cream will be good for all skin types, although those with oily skin will have to use pressed powders if they do not want to shine from early morning.

Da li ste možda probali novu Eucerinovu CC kremu? Kakvi su vaši utisci o njoj?

Golden Rose Longstay Matte Face Powder - 08

Veoma često u toku leta kada nanosim kreme sa visokim SPF-om pogledam se u ogledalo, vidim masnu kožu i kremu na licu koja se presijava i pomislim: "Joj na šta bih ja ličila da ne postoje kameni puderi!". Ali srećom postoje! I danas ću vam pisati o jednom prilično novom puderu koji je izbacio dragi Golden Rose - Longstay Matte Face Powder.


Very often during the summer when applying some cream with high SPF I look in the mirror and I see oily skin and cream shining on my face and I think to my self: "Oh what I would look like if there were no pressed powders!". But luckily they exist! Today I will write about a fairly new powder from Golden Rose - Longstay Matte Face Powder.

Puder ima veoma dobar izbor nijansi, čak 9. Po boji su prilično dobre i odgovaraće devojkama sa našeg podneblja. Nema mnogo tamnih nijansi. Ja sam malo tamnija, ali ništa spektakularno i uzela sam nijansu 8. Inače puder sadrži 12,7g i cena u Lilly-ju mu je 979 dinara, a u parfimeriji Kristabel je oko 800 dinara. U parfimeriji Kristabel kao i Golden Rose radnji mogu se naći sve nijanse dok po Lilly drogerijama postoje samo 3 nijanse.


Powder has a very good selection of shades, 9 to be exact. By colour they are pretty good and they will suit girls from our region. There are not many dark shades. I'm a little darker, but nothing spectacular, and I bought shade 8. Otherwise powder contains 12.7g. Its price in Lilly drugstores is 979 RSD, and in Kristabel perfumery about 800 RSD. Perfumery Kristabel has all of the shades, while in Lilly drugstores you will find only 3.

Prva stvar u koju sam zaljubljena je pakovanje ovog pudera. On dolazi u kartonskoj kutiji u kojoj je divna plastična kutijica od mat čvrste plastike. Unutra je puder koji je zaštićen dodatnim providnim poklopcem, kao i sunđerčić koji je jako lepo urađen. Tu je i nezaobilazno ogledalo. Puder realno izgleda vrlo lepo čak po malo i luksuzno.


The first thing I love is the packaging of this powder. It comes in a cardboard box in which is a beautiful plastic box made of matte hard plastic. Inside, the powder is protected by an additional transparent cover and there is also a sponge applicator, which is very nicely done. Packaging also contains a mirror. Powder really looks very nice, even a bit luxurious.

Puder je sitno mleven i prilično kompaktan. Kada se nanosi četkicom kruni se po malo, a kada se za nanošenje koristi sunđerčić koji se dobija uz puder nema ni malo krunjenja. Ima srednje prekrivanje i lepo ujednači ten, a na licu ne izgleda brašnjavo. Ipak u ovim letnjim mesecima posle recimo 2 sata prosijam i moram da ga nanesem ponovo. Doduše on se i tad zadrži na licu tako da često samo pokupim višak sebuma a puder nanesem ponovo tek za par sati. Čak i po ovim vrelinama puder stoji na mestu i ne klizi sa lica.


Powder is finely ground and quite compact. When applied with a brush it crumbles a little, but when you use the sponge that comes with the powder there is no crumbling, It has medium coverage and nicely equalizes ten, without looking floury on the face. Yet in these summer months I become shiny after say 2 hours, so I have to apply it again. Although it does remain in the face so I usually just remove the excess sebum and apply the powder a few hours later. Even in this scorching heat this powder stays put.

Puder mi se mnogo svideo. Nije najjači od svih koje sam do sad probala što se matiranja tiče, ali pošto uspe malo i da ujednači ten, ovakva kombinacija osobina čini ovaj puder jednim od mojih omiljenih pudera za matiranje. Npr. čuveni Rimmel puder za matiranje matira za nijansu bolje ali je vrlo tvrd i nema nikakvo prekrivanje.


I like this powder quite a lot. It is not the strongest of all that I have tried, when it comes to mattification, but as it also equalizes ten. The combination of properties makes this powder one of my favourite mattification powders. For example. famous Rimmel powder is a bit better when it comes to mattification but it is very hard and has no coverage.

Pritom pogledajte kako puder lepo izgleda! Sigurno ga ponovo kupujem čim potrošim ovo pakovanje.


And just look how good it looks! I'm surely buying it again as soon as I spend this packaging.

Ovaj puder je još jedan uspeh Golden Rose-a, i još jedan dokaz da i jeftiniji brendovi mogu da budu vrhunski.


This powder is another success of Golden Rose, and another proof that cheaper brands can be superior.

Evo kako puder izgleda na koži:


Here's how it looks on the skin:

Glossip Make Up Milano - Look at me! Eyeshadow Palette (01 Autumn in the park) & Intense Volume Mascara

Novi brend na našem tržištu me uvek obraduje, Jedan prilično mlad brend rešio je da među prvim zemljama da šansu upravo Srbiji u kojoj od nedavno postoje dve prodavnice i to u TC Novi Merkator i Čika Ljubinoj 7. Reč je o Glossip Make Up Milano (više na njihovom sajtu i fb stranici). Ja sam potpuno slučajno primetila prodavnicu i Čika Ljubinoj i naravno odmah morala da uđem. Srećom divne devojke rade unutra, pa sam ostala sat vremena i ofarbala ruke do laktova. Na kraju sam nekako uspela da izaberem paleticu senki koju ću vam sada pokazati. Uz kupovinu se tada dobijalo i mini pakovanje jedne od njihovih maskara, tako da slede i utisci o njoj. Inače ovaj brend po cenama i prodavnici prilično podseća na Kiko i slične brendove. Imaju ogroman izbor šminke, ali i kozmetike.

The new brand in our market always makes me happy. One quite young brand has decided to give Serbia a chance as one of the first countries with their shops. Two stores were recently opened and they are located in SM Novi Merkator and Čika Ljubina 7. I am talking about Glossip Make Up Milano (more on their website and facebook page). I have totally accidentally noticed their store in Čika Ljubina street and of course I immediately had to come inside. Fortunately lovely girls are working there, so I stayed an hour and dyed my hands up to my elbows. Finally, I somehow managed to pick one eyeshadow palette which I'll show you in this post. With the purchase I also got a mini packaging of one of their mascaras, so I'll write about it, too. Otherwise the brand has prices and shop quite reminiscent of Kiko and similar brands. They have a huge selection of make up, but also cosmetics.

Look at me! Eyeshadow Palette (01 Autumn in the park)

Ovaj tip palete postoji u četiri kombinacije boja, mada su kod nas dostupne samo dve koliko sam ja primetila. Ja sam uzela 01 Autumn in the park, koja u sebi krije senke braonkastih i prirodnih nijansi. Pakovanje je kartonsko ali čvrsto, a zatvara se na magnet. Unutra se nalazi i ogledalce. Nema nikakav aplikator...mada ko još koristi aplikatore iz paleta. Ukupno sadrži 8g koji su podeljeni u četiri velike senke. Cena palete je 1999 dinara (kao i uvek kod nas su stvari malo skuplje pa je na italijanskom sajtu cena 12.9 EUR).

This type of palette exists in four colour combinations, although I think that only two are available here. I took 01 Autumn in the park, which contains eye shadows of brown and natural shades. The packaging is cardboard but it is firm, and closes with a magnet. Inside there is a mirror. It has no applicator ... although nobody uses these applicator that come with a palette. In total it contains 8g which are divided into four large eye shadows. Price is 1999 RSD (as always things are a little more expensive here, so on the Italian website the price is 12.9 EUR).

Paleta se sastoji od jedne svetle nijanse u boji šampanjca, za hajlajt. Tu je i jedna tamna braon nijansa za naglašavanje.  Dve senke su srednje tamne braon nijanse, jedna je hladnog a druga toplog podtona, ali mimo toga prilično su slične. Sve četiri senke su sa šimerom, a pigmentacija im je odlična. Senke su super napravljene, vrlo su sitno mlevene, ne krune se ni malo, jako se lako kupe četkicom i nanose, divno blendaju i vrlo su postojane. Generalno sve senke koje sam u prodavnic isprobala, pa čak i mat senke drečavih boja, su vrlo pigmentovane. Zapravo su po pigmentaciji jedne od boljih senki sa kojima sam se do sad susrela.

Palette consists of one bright champagne shades for highlighting. There is also a dark brown shade for emphasizing. Two shadows are medium dark brown, one cold and one with warm undertone, but beyond that they are fairly similar. All four shadows have shimmer, and their pigmentation is excellent. Eyeshadows are well made, very finely ground, don't crumble at all, very easy to pick up and apply, blend wonderfully and are very durable. Generally all the eyeshadows that I have tried in the store, even matte bright coloured ones, are highly pigmented. Actually these are one of the best pigmented eyeshadows of all I have encountered so far.

Negativna strana ove palete je što ne sadrži ni jednu mat senku, kako bi olakšala samostalno korišćenje. Takođe da se ja pitam dve senke srednjih tonova mogle su da budu malo više različite i da je bar jedna od njih malo svetlija kako bi razlika između nje i tamne nijanse za naglašavanje bila očiglednija. Mada ako ne cepidlačim paleta mi je zaista odlična i definitivno mami da nabavim još njihovih senki.

The downside of this palette is that it does not contain any matte eyeshadow in order to make this palette a more independent piece of makeup. Also, if it was up to me two mid-toned eyeshadows could be a little more different and at least one of them should be a little brighter, so the difference between it and dark shade is a bit more obvious. Although if I don't split hairs, this palette is really great and definitely makes me want to buy more of their eyeshadows.

Na slici imam senke iz ove palete, al i maskaru o kojoj ću ispod pisati.


On the photo I have applied eyeshadows from this palette, but also mascara I'll write about next.

 Intense Volume Mascara

Takođe isprobala sam i njihovu maskaru za volumen. Veliko pakovanje ove maskare sadrži 8 ml i košta 879 dinara (ponovo na sajtu je jeftinija i to 4.9 EUR). Ova maskara sadrži klasičnu četkicu (jeee moja omiljena!) srednje veličine. Formula maskare je srednje suva i ne sadrži mnogo grumuljica. Pravi odnos za lako nanošenje i brzo sušenje.

I also tried their volume mascara. Full packaging of this mascara contains 8 ml and costs 879 RSD (again on the website it is cheaper - 4.9 EUR). This mascara contains classical brush (yeah my favourite!) of medium size. Mascara formula is a medium-dry and doesn't contain a lot of lumps. Great formula for easy application and quick drying.

Maskara daje volumen trepavicama, ali ne previše. Ako volite paukove nogice od trepavica zaobiđite je, ali ako želite lepo rasčešljane i prirodne trepavice uz dobru i prirodnu dozu volumena razmislite o kupovini ove maskare. Maskaru su dobro napravili, pa se ona ne kruni i ne razliva u toku dana, već stoji na mestu, a uveče se lako skida bilo kojim sredstvom za skidanje šminke.

Mascara gives lashes volume, but not too much. If you like spider's legs lashes avoid this mascara, but if you want a nice separated and natural lashes with a good and natural dose volume consider buying this mascara. Mascara is well made, it doesn't crumble not run during the day, but stands on spot, so in the evening you  can easily remove it by any make up remover.

Prvi utisci o brendu su vrlo pozitivni i svakako vidim da ću ovaj brend nastaviti da kupujem Da li ste vi možda probali nešto od Glossip-a i kakvi su vaši utisci? Imate li neke preporuke?

Kiko Eye Base

Bez baze za mene nema šminkanja. Kapci su mi masni i prilično uvučeni tako da se bez baze senke veoma brzo nakupe u pregibu, a da ne pričam o tome kako je pigmentacija senki bez baze često užasna, i one neće da se zalepe za kožu niti izblendaju. Probala sam više bazi do sad i mahom su sve bile razočarenja epskih proporcija, osim Artdeco i mog potpunog favorita Avonove baze. Iako isprobavanju nove baze uvek pristupam sa dozom straha od neuspeha, znatiželja je uvek jača od mene. Tako sam nedavno nabavila i Kiko Eye Base.

Without eye shadow base there is no makeup for me. My eyelids are oily and quite pulled in, so without a base eye shadows quickly accumulate in the crease. Also, pigmentation of eye shadows without a base is often terrible, and blending and sticking to the skin even worse. I tried multiple bases so far and most of them were disappointments of epic proportions, except Artdeco and my favourites one Avon eye shadow base. When trying out new bases I always have a dose of fear of failure, but still curiosity is always stronger. So I recently purchased Kiko Eye Base.

Ova baza dolazi u kartonskoj kutiji u kojoj je tubica sa vrlo malim otvorom odličnim za doziranje, pošto je potrebna vrlo mala količina baze za jednu aplikaciju, manje od zrna pirinča po kapku. Na žalost Kiko još uvek ne može da se nađe u Srbiji, a cena ove baze koju sam ja kupila u Trstu je 6.90 EUR. Pored ove baze postoji i jedna sa šimerom Pearly Eye Base. Evo ga i sastav:

This base comes in a cardboard box in which is a plastic tube with a very small opening, which is excellent for dosing, since you'll require a very small amount of the base for one application, smaller than a grain of rice per eyelid. Unfortunately Kiko still can be found in Serbia, and the price of the base which I bought in Trieste is 6.90 EUR. In addition to this base there is also one with shimmer - Pearly Eye Base. Here is the composition:

Baza je bež boje i srednje gustine. Ređa je naravno od Avonove, koja se nalazi u teglici, a svakako je ređa i od Artdeco baze, koja je prilično gusta. Nema nikakav specijalan miris. Pri nanošenju se lako i brzo razmazuje i odmah suši, pa ste posle par sekundi već spremni za nanošenje šminke. Ova baza odlično drži senke na mestu ceo dan, bez ikakvog nakupljanja u pregibu. Takođe pojačava pigmentaciju senki i olakšava njihovo nanošenje, S druge strane, što je podjednako bitno, ne otežava blendanje senki, niti se senke lepe neujednačeno za kožu.

The base is a beige and has medium density. It is rarer then Avon one, which is packed in a jar, and certainly rarer than Artdeco base, which is quite thick. It has no scent. During the application it is easily and quickly spread and dries immediately, and after a few seconds you'll be ready for applying makeup. This base holds eye shadows on all day, without any accumulation in the crease. It also enhances the pigmentation of the shadows and makes application easier. On the other hand, which is equally important, it does not make blending of shadows harder, nor the shadows stick to the skin unevenly.

Da rezimiram, ova baza je jednako dobra kao Avonova baza kojoj se ja klanjam. Ima i jednu veliku prednost u odnosu na Avonovu, a to je higijensko pakovanje. S druge strane za sada ima i jednu veliku manu - nije dostupna u Srbiji. Ali eto...ako budete išli na neki put i uđete u Kiko radnju...znate šta da kupite!

To sum up, this base is as good as Avon base which I worship. It has a big advantage over the Avon one, which is a more hygienic packaging. On the other hand it also has one major drawback - it is not available in Serbia. But there you go ... if you go on a trip and you enter a Kiko store ... you know what to buy!

Koja je vaša omiljena baza za senke? Da li ste probali ovu bazu?
