7 smrtnih grijeha u ljepoti tag/ TAG -7 deadly sins in beauty


U našoj maloj, ali slatkoj grupici smo se dogovorili da pišemo neki tag post, ili 7 smrtnih grijeha ili 50 činjenica o meni. Ja sam za početak izabrala 7 smrtnih grijeha, a nadam se da ću ubrzo nekada napisati i ovaj drugi, jer je super način da se stekne neki dojam o osobi. 50 činjenica nije malo :-D

Some bloggers in our small, but sweet group have come to an agreement to write a tag post, either 7 deadly sins or 50 facts about me. For starters. I chose to write about my 7 deadly sins in beauty, but I hope to write the latter one as well, since it is a great way to meet someone. 50 is not a small number :-D.

1. POHLEPA- Najskuplji i najjeftiniji proizvod koji imate?
Najjeftiniji proizvod koji imam su definitivno Rapsodi i Gabrini lakovi koje sam na koridoru plaćala nekih 60 feninga. Jeftinije od toga ne može ići....Najskuplji je Shiseido četkica za čišćenje lica koju imam dugo i super mi je.

1. GREED-What is your most expensive and most inexpensive beauty item?
The most inexpensive beauty item that I have are actually my Rapsodi and Gabrini nail polishes that cost me around 30 cents. It can't go cheaper than that... The most expensive item is my Shiseido face cleansing brush that I own for a long time and I love it.

2.BIJES-S kojim proizvodom imate love-hate vezu?
Artdeco baza za sjenilo... Super čuva sjenu, ali se brzo suši u pakovanju. Nekada mi tako lijepo legne na kapak, a nekada moram brisati šminku, jer se stvore neke sitne grudvice...Nema mi ništa mrže od toga.

2.WRATH-What product do you have a love-hate relationship with?
It's my Artdeco eyeshadow base. It keeps my eyeshadow in place, but dries out  fastly in its packaging. Sometimes it goes on very smoothly on my eyelid and sometimes I have to remove my eye makeup because some tiny clumps appear...I hate that!

3.PROŽDRLJIVOST-Koji vam je najukusniji proizvod?
Volim maline u svakom obliku, tako da kada stavim svoje Labello Lip Butter  Raspberry Rose samo ga njuškam i na kraju ga poližem :-D. Volim i Balein losion za tijelo sa mirisom Kivija, kao i Essence bronzer koji mi miriše na kokos.

3.GLUTTONY-What are your most delicious beauty products?
I just love raspberries, in their every form, so when I apply my Labello Lip Butter Raspberry rose I can not stop sniffing it and eventually lick it :-D I also love Balea body lotion-Kiwi and my Essence bronzer which smells  like coconuts.

4.LIJENOST-Koji proizvod zanemarujete zbog lijenosti?
Mrzim čekati da mi djeluje maska za kosu, pa tako moje pranje kose uvijek završava sa regeneratorom, a nekada koristim i regenerator koji se ne ispire, samo da skratim vrijeme...

4.SLOTH-What beauty product do you neglect due to laziness?
I hate waiting for hair masks to do their job, so after shampooing my hair I always use just a  conditioner, sometimes evenI use a leave-in conditioner, only to save on time...

5.PONOS-Koji proizvod ti daje najviše samopouzdanja?
Puder! Pošto se užasno crvenim, i ne volim kako mi lice izgleda bez pudera, ne mogu zamisliti otići u grad bez pudera. Jedino ljeti kada ima podosta sunca, pa nabacim naočale i ne skidam ih :-D Lice mi je najljepše izgledalo odmah nakon poroda kada nisam imala kapi krvi u sebi, pa je izgledalo skroz čisto, a i to je trajalo samo par dana...

5.PRIDE-What beauty product gives you the most self confidence?
Foundation! My face is awfully red and I don't like the way it looks without foundation, so I can't imagine going out without it. Well, during Summer, when there is sun, I put on my shades and don't take them off. My face looked the best immediately after my labor, since I didn't have any blood in me, it looked soooo clean, but that lasted for a short period of time..

 6.POŽUDA-Koje osobine ti se najviše svidjaju kod suprotnog spola?
Moj muž ima sve ono što ja volim kod muškarca. Lijepo lice i osmijeh, smisao za humor, dobro srce i pozitivan duh! <3

6.LUST-What attributes do you find most attractive in opposite sex?
My husband has everything that I love in a man. A nice face and smile,a sense of humor, a good heart and positive mind! <3

7.ZAVIST-Koju stvar ili stvari biste voljeli dobiti na poklon?
Šminku!!!! Bilo šta od šminke...Ne bježim ni od parfema :-D Ali inače volim poklone, pa mi je drago kada me se neko sjeti s bilo kakvim poklonom.
 
7.ENVY-What items would you most like to receive as a gift?
Makeup!!! Any makeup item... Perfumes are also ok :-D But I do love presents, so I'm glad when someone surprises me with anything.

To je to što se tiče ovog taga. Pitanja su mi baš zanimljiva i zabavno mi je raditi ovakvu vrstu postova. Tagujem sve koje čitaju i nadam se da ćete i vi priznati svoje grijehe...

That's it as far as it this tag goes. The questions were very interesting and it's fun to do posts like this one. I tag everyone reading this and I hope that you will confess to your sins.

ESSENCE SUN CLUB OIL CONTROL PAPER


Nedavno sam u CM-u naišla na ove 'upijajuće papiriće' (blotting papers :-D) i odmah sam ih zgrabila, jer ih odavno nije bilo, a nikada ih nisam isprobala, i pored silne želje. Odmah sam ih taj dan i isprobala, pošto su mi nos i brada bili kao nauljeni od silne masnoće usljed vrućine i malo duže vožnje autom. I sve se odmah upilo, a samo sam dva puta  lagano prislonila papirić na lice. Wow. Od tada ih nosim u torbici i ne odvajam se od njih.

I recently visited a local drug store and ran into these blotting papers, I grabbed them immediately, because I haven't seen them for a while, and never tried them, though I wanted to. I tried them out the same day, since my nose and chin were extremely oily from the heat outside and a long drive in my car. Everything was absorbed instantly and I only lightly pressed the paper on my skin twice. Wow. I am taking them in my purse with me since then and they are always with me.



Kutijica je mala, slatka, kartonska i u nju stane 50 listića, što ipak može dugo da potraje. Lako ih je izvaditi, a ostatak papirića ostaje nedirnut, tako da ostanu i čisti. Koštaju nešto ispod 5 KM i super su investicija i jedna od onih stvari koje uvijek trebamo imati u torbi. Moraću ih kupiti još, za svaki slučaj...

The small, cute, cardboard box fits 50 papers, which can last you a long time. The papers are easy to take out of the box and the rest of the papers stays intact and hence stay clean. The price is a little under 2,5 euros and they are a great investment and one of those things you always have too keep in your purse. I will have to stock them up, just in case...


Jeste li ih vi isprobale, ove ili neke druge i koje preporučujete?

Have you tried them out, these or other brands, which one do you recommend?

L'Oreal Skin Perfection 3-in-1 Purifying Micellar Solution



Znam da postoji more postova vezano za ovu micelarnu, ali i ja sam htjeli izraziti svoj sud, a možda neko i nije pročitao, pa evo prilike. L'Orealovu micelarnu sam odavno željela da isprobam, ali imala sam još uvijek svoje Bioderme, a kasnije se u mom DM-u rasprodala kao luda. Ali prije nekoliko dana sam je dobila na poklon od prijateljice i pošteno sam se obradovala. Od tada samo nju koristim i isprobavam i do sada sam prezadovoljna njome. Inače mislim da su micelarne najbolji način skidanja šminke, jer lice ne ostaje masno, šminka se ne razmazuje po cijelom licu a ujedno i toniraju kožu.

I know that there is a bunch of posts regarding this micellar solution, but I wanted to give my opinion as well, and, maybe there is someone who hasn't read anything about it, so this is their chance. I wanted to try out the L'Oreal Skin Perfection 3-in-1 Purifying Micellar Solution for a long time, but I still had some of my Bioderma left, and later on it was sold out in my drugstore. A few days ago a friend of mine bought it for me as a gift and I was truly pleased. I have been using it since then and so far, I am loving it. I do think that micellar solutions are the best way to remove your makeup, because there is no greasy feeling on the face afterwards, the makeup does not smear all over your face and it tones the skin.


A zašto se zove 3u1?  Zato što L'Oreal obećava da:
1) Odstranjuje šminku
2)Odčepljuje pore i uklanja nečistoće
3)Tonizira i umirije kožu
 Slažem se sa L'orealom, radi sve ovo :-D. Super skida šminku, mada treba malo više otopine nego recimo kod Bioderme i malo zapne na eyelineru, ali to mi je ok. Tonira kožu, a i kao da su mi pore malo finije :-D
Ako sam umorna lice čistim samo sa njom i umijem se na kraju, a ako imam dosta vremena, onda ipak i detaljnije očistim lice.

Why is it called  a 3in1 product? Because L'oreal promises it to:
1) Dissolve make-up
2)Unclog pores and removes impurities
3) Tone and soothe skin
I agree with L'oreal, it does all that :-D. It removes make-up pretty nicely, though you need more solution than with Bioderma and it stucks a bit with eyeliner, but that's ok for me. It tones the skin and my pores seem nicer :-D. When I am tired or lazy I only use the solution to clean my face and wash it afterwards, but when I have the time and I'm in the mood, I do clean my face more thoroughly.


Tanka, plastična bočica sadrži 200ml proizvoda, a može se koristiti 6 mjeseci nakon otvaranja. Svidja mi se i to što pakovanje nije okruglo, kao kod ostalih micelarnih koje sam probala, ovako mi nekako izgleda interesantnije.  Jedina mana ovog proizvoda je ta što je rupica kuda otopina prolazi malo šira, pa se vrlo lako može desiti da izidje previše otopine ako se ne pazi. Sve u svemu, super proizvod. Može vrlo lako parirati Biodermi, a nama u BiH je malo teže doći do nje, tako da je ovo L'orealovo čudo fantastična zamjena. Ko još nije probao definitivno preporučujem!

The slim, plastic bottle contains 200ml of product and it can be used for 6 months after opening it. I like the fact that the packaging is not round, as with the other ones I tried, it kinda looks more interesting to me. The only negative side to this product is that the opening is a bit wider, so if you are not careful, too much fluid can go through it. All in all, this is a great product. It can go hand in hand with Bioderma, and it is so hard for us in Bosnia to get it, so this little miracle from L'oreal is a fantastic substitute. If you haven't tried it, I highly recommend you do!

NOTD: GOLDEN ROSE HOLIDAY #77

Golden Rose lakovi su mi inače super, barem onih nekoliko koje sam ja isprobala, ali ovi iz Holiday kolekcije su stvarno najbolji iz čitavog njihovog asortimana. Baš je super što jedan brend poput Golden Rose, koji se bavi prodajom jeftinije kozmetike, tako dobro prati trendove. Holiday lakovi koštaju 4,5 KM, sadrže 11,3 ml proizvoda, imaju efekat pijeska i jako  su postojani. Mene su oduševili.
#77 je neonska naranžasta i baš mami pogled, nema šanse da vam neko ne primjeti nokte :-D

Golden Rose nail polishes are all great, at least the ones I tried, but these from the Holiday collection are really the best out of their whole assortment. It is so great that a brand such as Golden Rose Cosmetics, ho sell cheaper cosmetics, follow the world's trends so well. Nail polishes from the Holiday range dost 2,25 euros, they hold 11,3 ml of product, with sand effect and are long-lasting. I am amazed!
#77 is a neon orange and is truly eye-catching. There is no way that your nails go unnoticed. :-D


Nisam baš neki ekspert u nanošenju laka, nadam se da mi to nećete zamjeriti :-D, bitno je da vidite otprilike kako izgleda na noktima...:-D

I am not an expert in applying nail polish, I hope you won't mind that :-D, the point is for me to show you what it looks like on the nails...:-D

 Svidja li vam se nijansa?

 Do you like the shade?

moja prva e.l.f. narudžba / my first e.l.f. order

 Prije nekih mjesec dana je na britanskoj E.L.F. stranici blo sniženje od čak 60% i to sam vidjela kao odličnu priliku da isprobam neke od njihovih proizvoda.E.L.F. inače ima niske cijene, a ovo sniženje je stvarno bilo smiješno, a još sam imala i kod za besplatan shipping, tako što sam učestvovala u njihovoj nagradnoj igri, i ovo je bila prilika koja se ne propušta. Nažalost skoro svi proizvodi koje sam htjela isprobati su već bili rasprodani, osim ove palete sjena, tako da sam bukvalno izmišljala šta drugo da kupim. Na kraju me sve ovo na slici izišlo 13 funti (oko 30 KM). Super!
Narudžba je stigla za 20 dana. A evo šta sam izabrala:

About a month ago the british e.l.f. site was 60% off all orders and I saw this as a great opportunity to try out some of their products. E.L.F usually has low prices, and this sale was really hillarious, plus I had a code for free shipping, by participating in one of their giveaways, so this was a chance I could not resist. Unfortunately, almost all of the products I wanted to try out were sold out, except for the eyeshadow palette. so I literally made up what to buy. In the end, it all cost me 13 pounds(around 15 euros). Awesome! The order came in 20 days.
And this is what I chose:

100pc Eyeshadow palette
All over colour stick-Golden peach
Brightening eye colour-Butternut
Liquid eyeliner-Coffe
Plumping lip glaze-peach passion
Hypershine lip gloss- flirt
Hypershine lip gloss- Blossom
Luscious liquid lipstick-Baby lips
Fan brush
Healthy glow Bronzing powder-Warm tan
Healthy glow bronzing powder-Luminance
Single eyeshadow-Pebble

Imate li vi šta od e.l.f.-a  i kako vam se svidja ovaj moj slučajni izbor proizvoda?

Do you own anything by e.l.f. and how do you like my random choice of products?

GOLDEN ROSE RUŽEVI / GOLDEN ROSE LIPSTICKS

Za GR kozmetiku sam čula davno, ali nikada nisam ni pomišljala da je probam.. Prodavali su se kod nas samo na pijaci i uvijek mi je izgledala nekako ružno, prašnjavo, tako da sam je zaobilazila. Medjutim, kada sam pročitala super recenzija po blogovima, pogotovo ruževa i lakova, i ja sam odlučila da ih isprobam, kad ih toliko hvale. Mogu samo reći da mi je žao što to nisam ranije uradila, jer su fantastični! Naručila sam sebi 5 ruževa i svi su predivni, jedva čekam da isprobam nove nijanse.

I heard about GR cosmetics a long time ago, but I never wished to even try them out. They were only sold on the flea market and it always looked kinda ugly, and dirty... But when I read so many good reviews on various blogs, Especially their lipsticks and nail polishes, I decided to give them a try, since they are praised that much. I can only say that I am so so sorry I haven't done that before, because they are amazing. I ordered 5 lipsticks and they are beautiful, I can't wait to try out some other shades.


Ruževi sadrže 4,2 g proizvoda u sebi, kao i vitamin E i kremasti su. Miris im nije iritantan,, a sa cijenom od 3 KM su apsolutni pobjednici. Pakovanje im je crno, elegantno, nije neke pretjerane kvalitete, ali hej-3 KM.! Jedino treba paziti da se dobro zatvore, jer se moze desiti da se malo ošteti ruž, ali to mi ne smeta. Super su pigmentirani i dobro postojani i zaista ih se isplati kupiti.

The lipsticks are 4,2 g each and contain vitamin E and are creamy. Their smell is not irritating and with the price of 1,5 euros, they are absolute winners. The packaging is black, elegant, not of much high quality, but hey!-1,5 euros! The only thing you should watch out for is making sure that you close the lipstick properly, or else it can be damaged a bit, but that doesn't bother me. They are super pigmented and long lasting and are worth buying.


#79 je roskasta nijansa sa plavim podtonovima, Lijepa je ljetna nijansa, mada ja nikada ne nosim ruž prema godišnjem dobu,  i jarka je, što mi se svidja. Mislim da je nijansa koja većini stoji, a zbog plavih podtonova čini zube mrvicu bijeljim.

#79 is a pinkish shade with blue undertones. It's a nice summer shade, though I never wear lipstick according to the season,  and it  is bright, which I like. I believe it's a shade that looks good on everyone  and because of those blue undertones the teeth seem slightly whiter.

#123 je prava vamp boja i prvi je ruž takve ili slične nijanse koji posjedujem. Uvijek nekako bježim svjetlijim tonovima, ali ovu sam htjela isprobati i drago mi je što ću malo izaći iz svoje comfort zone. Boja je prekrasna, ali se uz ruž mora koristiti olovka.

#123 is a true vamp color and it is the first lipstick in this  or similar shade that I own. I somehow tend to use lighter shades, but I'm glad I'm stepping out of my comfort zone because of this one. The shade is beautiful, but you have to use a lip pencil with it.

#126 je prekrasna, prekrasna nijansa i mislim da je on i najprodavaniji. Njega sam najviše i koristila od svih i moj je apsolutnii favorit od ovih 5. Boja je blago narandžasta i jednostavno mi je super, ne znam šta drugo reći.

#126 is a gorgeous, gorgeous shade and I believe it's their bestselling one. I used this one the most and it's my absolute favorite out of the 5. The lipstick is a light orange shade and is simply amazing, I don't know what else to say.

#127 je svijetlo rozi i ide uz sve moguće, od smokey eyea do nekog neutralnog izgleda. Ovakve nijanse sam uvijek voljela i imala i ovakav ruž svaka žena treba da ima u torbici.

#127 is a light pink and goes with everything, from smokey eyes to a neutral look. I always loved these kinds of shades and always used them and every woman should have this kind of lipstick in her purse.

#128 je prelijepa narandžasta nijansa kao stvorena za ljeto i osunčan ten. Lijepo ide uz smedje tonove, na očima ili obrazima i meni se jako, jako svidja.

#128 is a beautiful orange shade made for Summer and a tan. It goes well with browns, either on your eyes or cheeks and I like it a lot.

Uradila sqam i swatcheve na ruci, jednom na prirodnoj svijetlosti, a drugi put sa blicem. Koje nijanse vi imate i preporučujete?

I did some swatches on my hand, once in natural sunlight and once using a flash. What shades do you have and recommend?


JULY FAVORITES


Juli je bio pakleno vruć i maksimalno sam izbjegavala šminkanje, trenutno ne radim, pa si mogu to priuštiti. Izlazila sam samo ujutro rano ili nekada navečer i pokušavala što manje maltretirati lice šminkom, jer mi je koža užasno masna, a u kombinaciji sa vrućinom postaje grozna, sa velikim G! Ipak, da ne bih prepadala ljude sa svojim nenašminkanim licem, morala sam nešto i stavljati, a ovo su proizvodi koje sam najčešće koristila u julu.

July was hot as hell and I avoided using make up, I'm unemployed at the moment, so I can do that. I went out only really early in the morning or at night and I tried to keep my face clean as much as possible, because my skin is oily and in the combination with heat it becomes awful, with a capital A! But I couldn't scare people with my bare face :-D, I had to use something-so these are the products I used the most in July.


AVENE THERMAL SPRING WATER-savršenstvo u boci. Tako mi se svidja da ga koristim u svakoj mogućoj prilici, na sebi i na bebici. Super osvježava, a još je i ne čuvam u frižideru.

AVENE THERMAL SPRING WATER-perfection in a bottle. I like it so much that I use it at any occasion, both me and my baby. It is so refreshing and I don't even keep it in the fridge.

BRUNO BANANI not for everybody silkening body lotion-  ima divan miris i koristim ga često umjesto parfema. Ovo je jedini proizvod kojem toplota paše, što je god toplije, miris se više širi :-D

BRUNO BANANI not for everybody silkening body lotion-the scent is beautiful and I often use it instead of perfume. This is the only product that agrees with heat, the warmer, the better it smells.

BIODERMA sensibio-najbolji proizvod ikada za skidanje šminke, šta više da kažem...

BIODERMA sensibio-the best make up remover ever, what else is there to say...

BALEA VASELINE- koristim ga za sve moguće, a navečer ga stavljam na područje oko očiju.         (čudno,znam :-D)

BALEA VASELINE-I use it for all kinds of stuff, and at night I use it in my eye area (weird, I know :-D)

LABELLO lip butter RASPBERRY ROSE- mmm divan miris... Nekada ga koristim samoga, jer ima malo boje i fino vlaži usne, a miris je veliki plus! Dobro dodje i ispod malo suhljih ruzeva.

LABELLO lip butter RASPBERRY ROSE- mmm wonderful smell. Sometimes I just use it on its own, it has a hint of color and it moisterizes the lips nicely, and the smell is a big plus! Its also good to use under a bit drier lipsticks



ANNY lak za nokte #322 white linen- volim bijeli lak za nokte, nebitno koje je godišnje doba i ovaj mi je divan, mada trebaju dva dobra sloja da izgleda kako treba.

ANNY nail polish #322 white linen- I love white nail polish, no matter the season and this one is wonderful, you need two good coats to make it look nice, though.

MAX FACTOR kohl pencil #090 natural glaze-divna olovka za oči, stavljala sam je uz sve moguće sjene, jer me zaista osvježi. Super ne- bijela nijansa.

MAX FACTOR kohl pencil #090 natural glaze-great eye liner, I used it with every possible eyeshadow, it really makes me look fresh. A great off -white color.

ALVERDE ruž #82 hazelnut- smedja nijansa koju ne stavljam na usne, jer mi grozno stoji, ali sam ga stalno koristila za konturiranje lica. Stavljam ga preko tečnog pudera i predjem lagano kamenim puderom preko njega. Super mi je posluzio u tu svrhu.

ALVERDE lipstick #82 hazelnut-a brown shade that I never use on my lips because it looks awful on me, but I used it to contour my face. i put it over my foundation and then use some powder over it. It served great for that purpose.

GABRINI super shock eyeliner-waterproof- super proizvod za tako malo novca, super postojanost i prezadovoljna sam sa njim.

GABRINI super shock eyeliner-waterproof- super product for the low price, lasts long and I'm pretty satisfied with it

MAYBELLINE instant anti age effect-the eraser- jako dobar korektor kojeg sam maksimalno koristila prošlog mjeseca i , nažalost, gotovo je pri kraju. To pokazuje koliko mi se svidja.

MAYBELLINE instant anti age effect-the eraser-a very good concealer that I used A LOT last month and I almost used it up, unfortunately, but that shows how much I like it.

BOURJOIS healthy balance puder u kamenu- puno korišten u julu, ne izlazim iz kuće bez njega.

BOURJOIS healthy balance powder- I used it a lot in July, never left my home without it.

SLEEK makeUp i divine oh so special- ako sam stavljala sjenu, bila je iz ove palete. Stvarno prekrasna paleta i svima je preporučujem.

SLEEK makeUp i divine oh so special- If I used any eyeshadow, it was from this palette. A truly wonderful palette and I recommend it to everyone.

SEDONA LACE paleta sa 28 rumenila- pored toliko rozih boja, šta drugo poželjeti?

SEDONA LACE 28 blush palette- with so many pink shades to choose from, what more can you wish for?

Šta kažete na ove favorite? Imamo li išta zajedničko?

What do you say about my favorites? Do we have anything in common?

Product description:
"A skin-soothing makeup with medium coverage. Perfectly erases skin irregularities. Combines benefits of natural botanicals: white tea extract, vitamin E & C. Fights against free radical damage &controls oil / reduces pores.Gives you a flawless, velvety & matte complexion. Fragrance free."
 Is it what it promises? We'll see...


  
Kupila sam ga na sniženju na jagodici, po cijeni od 13,50 eura i htjela sam da ga isprobam, jer ne posjedujem ništa od CK kozmetike, cijena je zaista niska, a izgledao mi je baš nekako lijepo. Izabrala sam boju #210 Warm neutral i izgledala mi je kao fina topla nijansa za ljeto. Puder dodje u plastičnoj bočici sa pumpicom i sadrži 29,6 ml prozvoda. (1 fl.oz)

I bought mine on sale on Strawberrynet.com, the price was 13,50 euros and I wanted to try it out because I don't own any of CK make up products, plus, the price was really low and it looked kinda nice. I chose the shade #210 Warm neutral and it seemed a nice warm summer shade. The foundation comes in a plastic bottle with a pump and it contains 29,6 ml of product(1 fl.oz)






Kada sam ga prvi put isprobala bila sam strašno razočarana. Bio  je tako tečan da je samo prosao kroz četkicu, jedva sam nekako uspjela da ga stavim na lice i uslijedio je šok. Boja je bila presvijetla, miris ubitačan, osjetila sam neko peckanje, ne na koži, nego očima, tako je miris bio jak.. I pored toga nisam ga skinula, malo sam ga potamnila puderom u kamenu, našminkala ostatak lica i izišla van u šetnju. Nakon nekih sat vremena puder je izgledao baš fino, prirodno i nekako se fino smjestio na moje lice. Na kraju dana nisam bila baš zadovoljna, ali je opet izgledalo bolje nego kada sam ga tek stavila, nije oksidirao, a i miris je nestao, naravno...
Već drugi dan je bio malo gušći, a nakon par nanošenja je dobio finu teksturu. Prije upotrebe ga dobro promućkam i koristim ga u kombinaciji sa nekim tamnijim puderom. Jako lijepo izgleda na koži moram priznati. Nije savršen, i suprotnost je od opisa proizvoda, ali izgleda jako prirodno na koži i solidno pokriva. Nije ni skroz mat i ja koja imam masnu kožu moram tokom dana stavljati malo kamenog, ali nije ništa strašno. Sve u svemu, solidan puder za tu cijenu. Nisam još uvijek sigurna da li ću ga opet kupiti, možda na zimu, ako ga bude još uvijek, jer koliko sam razumjela, više se ne proizvodi.

When I first tried it , I was terribly disappointed. It was so liquidy that it just went through the brush. I somehow managed to put it on my face and had a real shock. The shade was too light, the smell was killing me, and I felt an itching, not on my skin, but my eyes, the smell was that strong...I did not take it off, despite all this, I darkened it a bit with powder, finished the rest of my make up and went outside for a walk. After an hour or so, my face looked really nice, natural, and somehow settled on my face very nicely. At the end of the day I was not truly satisfied, but it certainly looked better than when I first put it on, it didn't oxidise on me and the smell was gone, of course.
The second day the foundation was a bit denser, and after a few applications it had a really nice texture. I always give it a good shake before I use it and combine it with a darker shade. I have to admit that it looks really good on the skin. It's not perfect and opposes almost everything in it's description, but it looks really natural on the skin and it covers really good. It isn't completely matte and having oily skin, I have to apply powder throughout the day, but it's no big deal. All in all, it is a decent foundation for the price, I'm not sure that I'll buy it again, maybe in winter, if it's still there, because it is discontinued, for what I've heard.





KAKO VODITI BRIGU O MASNOJ KOŽI / HOW TO TAKE CARE OF OILY SKIN

Imam masnu kožu i to mi se nimalo ne svidja. Masna koža je najproblematičnija od svih tipova kože, i ne samo da ruzno izgleda kada je lice masno i onako skroz ljepljivo, već masna koža i privlači više prljavštine i samim tim je sklonija bubuljicama, miteserima, pore su raširene i koža izgleda grublje.Mnoge žene pate zbog masne kože, ali mnoge i griješe u njezi, pa onda još i naprave stvari gorima. Ono o čemu treba povesti računa jeste:

I have oily skin and I really don't like that fact. oily skin is a lot more problem than any other skin types. It doesn't just look nice when your face is all oily and sticky, but oily skin attracts more dirt and hence prone to acne, blackheads, enlarged pores plus the skin looks coarse. A lot of women suffer because of oily skin, but many make mistakes in treating it as well, making things even worse. This is what we should take into consideration:


Sredstva za čišćenje
Masna koža se mora redovno čistiti, dva puta dnevno, ali moramo koristiti blago sredstvo bez mirisa, koje cuva vlažnost kože, inače će koža u panici proizvoditi još više masnoće i eto većeg problema. Ako blago sredstvo za čišćenje lica ne pomogne, onda moramo koristiti neko sa kiselinama, npr.salicilnu ili glikolnu kiselinu ili benzoil peroksid, ali ne smijemo pretjerivati ni sa kiselinama

Cleanser
Oily skin needs to be washed regularly, twice a day, and we have to use a mild cleanser, fragrance-free, that keeps the skin hydrated, otherwise, the skin will produce even more oil in panic and then we get a bigger problem. If the light cleanser doesn't help, then we should try a product that includes an acid, such as salycilic and glycolic acid, or benzoyl peroxide, but we should never exaggerate with acids.


































Toner
Moramo koristiti toner, jer samo on može da održi prirodnu pH vrijednost kože, a skida i ostatke prljavštine, mrtve ćelije, smanjuje pore... Mora biti bezalkoholni i hidrirajući, a najbolje bi bilo koristiti ga samo na područjima gdje je koža masna, a zaobići suhe dijelove kože.

Toner
We have to use a toner, because only a toner can keep the skin's natural pH balanced. A toner also wipes off extra dirt, dead cells and it shrinks the pores... It has to be alcohol-free and moisturising, and it would be best to only use it on oily parts of the skin, and avoid the dry parts


Piling
Jednom sedmično bi svako trebao uraditi piling kože, a ovo je jedan od najbitnijih koraka u tretiranju masne kože. Piling otklanja naslage mrtvih ćelija, čemu je masna koža sklona, a ujedno i pročišćava pore. Treba investirati u dobar piling koji sadrži salicilnu kiselinu(BHA), jer ona ne samo da uništava površinski sloj mrtvih ćelija, nego i unutar pora, tako da se funkcija pora poboljšava i dozvoljava masnoći da lakše izadje na površinu, a ne da ostaje u koži i začepljava pore.



Scrub
Everyone should scrub their face once a week and this is one of the most important steps in treating oily skin.
It wipes out a lot of dead skin, which oily skin is prone to, and at the same time it unclogs the pores. You should invest in a good scrub that contains salycilic acid(BHA), because it doesn't just scrub away dead skin on the surface, but inside the pores as well, so the function of the pores gets better and that allows oil to  come on the surface freely, so it doesn't stay under the skin and clogs the pores.

Krema
Mnogi misle da će krema dodatno umastiti kožu, ali to nije istina. Čak i masnoj koži treba hidratacija, a najbolje je koristiti neku laganu kremu na bazi vode. Navečer bi trebali stavljati neki serum ili gel, a ujutro kremu sa zaštitnim faktorom, bez ulja naravno, jer i masnoj koži treba zaštita od sunca.

Moisturizer
Some think that a moisturizer will additionally make the skin shinier, but this is not true. Even oily skin needs hydration, and it is best to use a light water-based moisturiser. At night we should use a serum or gel, and in the morning something with SPF, oil-free, of course, because even oily skin needs a sun-screen.

Maske za lice

Stavljanje maski na lice, a pogotovo onih sa glinom, izvlači masnoću i pročišćava pore, ali moramo biti pažljivi, jer ako ih koristimo često, možemo kožu presušiti. Najbolje bi bilo stavljati ih jednom mjesečno i za posebne prilike. Ima ih raznih za kupiti, mada i na netu ima mnogo tutorijala o tome kako sam napraviti masku za kožu.



Masks
Applying facial masks, especially the ones with clay, can draw out oils and it cleanses your pores, but we have to be careful with them, because they tend to dry out the skin if used often. The best is to use them once a month and some special occasions. There are various kinds of masks to buy, but there are also many tutorials on the web on making your own facial masks.

Ovo su jednostavni koraci u tretiranju masne kože, a pored toga treba izbjegavati slatkiše, piti dosta vode i uzimati vitamin A.

These are simple steps in treating oily skin, and besides this, we should cut out on sweets, drink a lot of water and take vitamin A.
