hello girls!

pozdravljena dekleta!

The excitement while I'm writing this blog post is surreal. Lip products by NYX stole my heart the second I swatched them for the first time. I own 5 NYX lip glosses/creams and I love each and every single one of them.

Pisati tole objavo je meni res, ampak res v užitek. Vedno sicer najraje pišem o izdelkih/stvareh, ki so mi všeč, ampak redko kdaj me določen proizvod navduši do te mere. NYX lip glossom je to uspelo. Sama si (ponosno) lastim 5 različic, kar pa je (vsaj za moje pojme) veliko premalo.

Starting with my beloved Butter glosses - one is in the color Maple Blondie and the other one is in the color Creme Brulee. I love these two time and time again. Especially Creme Brulee which has to be my alltime favorite lipgloss. I am a very pale person and all that "nude mania" is not really doing me any favor. For the longest time, I couldn't find the perfect nude shade of lipgloss. Everything made me look well...not alive. But then I finally found it! This shade compliments my skin, the application is smooth, easy and not patchy. The color itself is faint but it still provides that subtle gloss (not too sticky or wet). Most of the time I am wearing these two on its own, but if I feel like I want to glam up a bit more I use them on top of any lipstick.

Začela bom z mojima najljubšima, ki sta iz serije Butter glosses. Sem lastnica dveh: Maple Blondie in Creme Brulee. Prvi na mojih ustnicah izpade dokaj peachy, ki je popolna barva za poletne mesece. Drugi pa je v barvi Creme Brulee. Z lahkoto povem, da je to moj najljubši lip gloss vseh časov. Trend nude ustnic je zame nočna mora. Sem izredno bleda in bolj ali manj nude šminke/glosi na meni izpadejo...no ne preveč dobro. Ne me narobe razumeti, obožujem ta trend, ampak dolgo časa nisem mogla dobiti odtenka, ki bi mi ustrezal. No, vsaj ne dokler nisem v roke dobila Creme Brulee lip glosa. Sploh nimam besed kako zelo ga obožujem, kako lepo se poda moji koži in kako ga ne zamenjam za nič na svetu. Sama aplikacija je enostavna in enakomerna, tekstura lip glossov pa ni niti preveč 'mokra', niti lepljiva, skratka popolna.

The next three belong to Soft Matte Lip Cream line. I am honestly not a huge fan of matte lip products. Trust me I tried really hard, but I'm just more of a lipgloss gal. Putting that aside I like these three a lot. I definitely love the intensity of the colors the most. These are so pigmented!! Anyway using them I learned one thing - always exfoliate before you use them. Always. They can look quite patchy if you don't. I usually do a sugar scrub and I'm good to go :) Another thing is you'll certainly want to keep the one you wear near you since you'll probably have to reapply it...multiple times. Let's face it, it's not the most longlasting thing in the world. But I love the effect it has on your lips - super matte, without drying your lips and the application is smooth! I own them in Milan, San Paulo and Copenhagen. Milan is very bright, quite hot pink (picture doesn't do it justice), San Paulo is pink but has that red tint and last but not least Copenhagen. A very deep/dark redish-purple perfect for the upcoming months.

Naslednji trije spadajo v linijo Soft Matte Lip Cream. Sama nisem ravno strastna ljubiteljica matte produktov za ustnice, nekako mi že od nekdaj bolj ustreza zaključek/sijaj, ki ga dajo običajni lipglossi. Kljub vsemu pa so mi naslednji trije všeč. So izredno pigmentirani, intenzivnost barv je res nepredstavljiva. Opozorila bi vas, da vedno pred uporabo, naredite piling za ustnice, kajti sam nanos lahko izpade malenkost neenakomerno. Sama se poslužujem kar sladkornega pilinga :).

Kar se tiče obstojnosti lahko odkrito povem, da to ni najbolj dolgotrajen produkt na svetu, ampak sam efekt izdelka odtehta tudi to. Zaključni učinek je matte, najboljša stvar pa ta, da ustnice ne izgledajo izsušene. Sama imam odtenke Milan - zelo močna roza, San Paulo - roza, z nianso rdeče in Copenhagen - izredno močna rdečkasto-vijolična barva, ki je idealna za prihajajoče mesece.

hello girls!

pozdravljena dekleta!

Back in May, I purchased some of the products that caught my eye at a drugstore. Some of these I'm using on a daily basis ever since I got them and they became a part of my daily makeup routine, others not so much. Want to know what I have to say about them? Then keep on reading :)

Moj obisk DM-a se ponavadi konča s prazno denarnico in novimi izdelki, ki jih roko na srce ponavadi ne potrebujem nujno :)

No kakorkoli že...v maju (vem zelo zamujam!!) sem med enim izmed obiskov kupila nekaj novih proizvodov, ki so mi padli v oči in se jim res, ampak res nisem mogla upreti. Kateri so me tokrat prevzeli pa izveš v nadaljevanju :)

I always loved Essence mascaras! Essence volume stylist 18h lash extension is no exception! I've been using it ever since I bought it and I must say I'm very impressed. This mascara really holds the curl, gives you intense/rich black color, and some much needed extra length. The only downside is that it is a little bit hard to remove it at night, but I've been using coconut oil and it comes off easily.

Že od nekdaj obožujem Essence maskare zato me ne čudi, da sem popolnoma zaljubljena tudi v to. Ta maskara resnično dolgo obdrži obliko trepalnic, jih podaljša in jih naredi izredno črne. Edina 'slaba stran' je njenotrdovratno odstranjevanje. Ker je dolgoobstojna je tudi odstranjevanje malenkost težje, vendar gre z dobrim odstranjevalcev brez večjih težav. Sama npr. uporabim kar kokosovo olje. :)

In this year's spring collection Life is a festival by Essence was included also this palette of concealers. I must admit this is the only item I don't really use. Not that it's bad, I just never use it. That's why I can't share my opinion on it, but those three different colors should cover up not only pimples and zits but also a dark under-eye circle. As soon as I'll have a stronger opinion on this product, I'll let you know.

Letošnja spomladanska Essence kolekcija - Life is a festival je prinesla tudi tole paletko korektorjev. Vsaka barva ima drugačen namen. Sama sem jo kupila predvsem zaradi roza korektorja, ki je namenjena prekrivanju podočnjakov (kar mnoge izmed nas nujno potrebujemo). Skratka te paleteke ne uporabljam pogosto, zato odkrito povedano težko določim če mi je všeč ali ne. Ampak takoj, ko jo bom testirala dlje časa bom objavila svoje mnenje! :)

What can I say about this guy other than how much I love it! I use it almost every single day. It's creamy, blends well, covers those annoying pimples nicely and it doesn't crease under your eyes...I like it a lot! Give it a try it might surprise you!

Tale frajer je za moje pojme več kot super. Uporabljam ga skoraj vsakodnevno. No vsakič, ko se namažem :) Všeč mi je, ker je kremast in se res lepo razmaže...Ne vsede se v očesne gube in prekrije vsak trdovraten mozolj na obrazu!

For every girl out there who likes dewy skin, I think this one is a must have. This works very well with my foundation (Maybelline Fit me), but to be entirely honest most of the time I wear it on its own...just to have that glow. :) It gives you nice but subtle shine which I absolutely adore. However, as far as "long-lasting" effect goes, there really isn't anything long-lasting about it. So keep that in mind if your skin is oily, this isn't a primer for you.

Zadnji produkt, ki ga želim omeniti pa je Catrice-ov Prime and Fine Nude Glow Primer. Za moje pojme je ta produkt super, zlasti za punce, ki imajo rade "dewy" efekt. Sama ga uporabljam pod podlago (Maybelline Fit me), nosim pa ga tudi samostojno. Kaj naj rečem? Res mi je všeč sijoč videz :) Bi pa opozorila, da ta primer (vsaj na moji koži) ne podaljša obstojnosti makeupa. Tako puncam z mastno kožo, tega izdelka ne bi priporočala.

hello girls!

pozdravljena dekleta!

Summer just flew by!

It's almost September and it's insane to think how fast the time flies!!

I hope everyone had a great summer and that you enjoyed every second of it...because in just a matter of time we will have to face the reality :(

But enough with this dark perceptions :)

With summer also came a bunch of new favourites!

I did my best to choose those that I REALLY REALLY like and decided to show it to you in today's post :)

Avgust se bliža koncu, september že trka na vrata. NORO! Čas res prehitro leti! Upam, da ste vse uživale maksimalno in da vam bo poletje 2016 ostalo v najlepših spominih. In pa seveda...da ste se spočile za nove izzive in obveznosti, ki prehitro prihrajajo vsem naproti. :(

Ena izmed pozitivnih stvari v mojem poletju je tudi odkritje (vsaj zame) novih izdelkov, katerim danes posvečam ta blog zapis ;)

#feeltheheat

During the summer I tend not to wear (too) much makeup, because of all the heat, sun, salt and sweat...:)

These three products were pretty much the only thing I used as a part of my makeup/nail routine this summer. As I said I like to keep things simple - Mascara, Lipgloss and Concealer.

Po resnici povedano, poleti praktično ne uporabljam makeupa. Izjeme so kakšne poroke in podobno :)

Vročina, sonce, morje in sol pač ne grejo skupaj z obrazom polnim makeupa. V bistvu sem pa poleti tako ali tako prelena za neka nepotrebna lepotičenja :) Tako grem od doma ponavadi z maskaro, korektorjem in pa barvnim lipglosom!

In the beginning of the summer I purchased this liquid lipstick by Essence in the color Show Off! I fell in love instantly! This lipgloss is packed in a very convenient container. Its application is even and moisturizing. It has very glossy finish so it's basically a lipgloss :) I only wish they had more wide color selection, because I'm hooked (since then I bought a couple more) ;)

I love this exact color (Show off!) it's very watermelon-y! Perfect for summer days and nights!

Nekje junija sem v DMu kupila lipgloss, ki vsaj po imenu, sodi med šminke - Essence liquid lipstick v odtenku Show off!

Meni osebno je fenomenalen, zlasti kar se barve tiče. Nahaja se nekje med barvo breskve in barvo lubenice, skratka idealen je za vroče poletne dni in noči :)

Sam nanos je izredno enostaven,obstojnost je relativno dolga, učinek pa ni matt, pač pa svetleč/glossy! Priporočam!;)

Then we have Essie nail polish in the color berried treasures. This is limited edition (summer collection 2016) and it's very similar to peach daiquiri. I love Essie's nail polish so much! They are super long-lasting and I pretty much wore this one on my toes for the entire summer!:)

Na nohtih na nogah sem CELO poletje nosila Essie - Berried Treasures. Ta lakec je iz omejene izdaje (Poletje 2016), ampak se ga te dni še vedno da dobiti v DMu!

Po moji presoji je zelo podoben svojemu predhodniku Essie - Peach Daiquiri.

No pa saj ni važno, jaz imam oba, ker so njihovi laki preprosto vrhunski :)

Last but not least we have Radiance reveal concealer by Bourjois.

If you don't have it yet - go buy it! NOW! This stuff is truly amazing! Super blendable, light on the skin, works amazing when it comes to covering spots, pimples and dark circles and smells astonishing- what more could you wish for? :)

I have it in the color 01 Ivory.

Bourjois Radiance reveal korektor mislim da večina od vas že pozna.

V primeru, da tega še ne poznate ali pa ga še nimate v vaši zbirki ličil, pa priporočam čimprejšni nakup! Resno! Ta korektor je eden izmed boljših korektorjev: lahek za razmazati, odličen za prikrivanje rdečice, mozoljev, podočnjakov, skratka super je! ;)

Sama ga imam v odtenku 01 Ivory.

#nofrizz

The next product I kind of "rediscovered" and I fell in love with it again :) Moroccanoil Frizz Control made an appearance in my hair care routine months ago (Click here:http://petrarebolj.blogspot.si/2015/06/my-hair-care-routine.html) and I have to say I like it even more this time around!

I pump a couple of spritzes directly on my damp hair, brush it out with my Tangle teezer. After that I plainly air dry it and style as usual. Moroccan Oil is allowing me to tame my hair easily and style it with no sweat.

Moroccanoil Frizz Control sprej je moj stari ljubljenec in se je že predstavil tudi na mojem blogu(Klikni:http://petrarebolj.blogspot.si/2015/06/my-hair-care-routine.html) :) Ta sprej lase naredi mehke, "ne-štrleče" in spodobne. :) Ko pridem izpod tuša, še na mokre lase nekajkrat pošpricam produkt, jih razčešem s svojim Tangle teezerjem in voila! Poleti si las ponavadi ne sušim s fenom, ampak jih preprosto posušim na zraku.

#sunkissedskin

Every single year, no matter how much effort I put into not burning my skin, I get burned. And this year was no exception. My skin was a mess for the longest time (2 weeks), I couldn't sleep, I couldn't move...I literally was a mess. I used Aloa gel, which is also spectacular, but this was even better.

My boyfriend was probably sick of me whining so he went to Sensilab and got me this. Oxilver skin solution is suppose to fasten skin restoration, slows down skin aging, returns healthy and fresh look of the skin. And it help so fast! It's basically water with active oxygen. You just spray it on a problematic area a couple times a day and you're done :)

Oxilver also helps for various skin problems and diseases such as dermatitis, psoriasis, wounds, eczema and also acne!

Tudi letos brez opeklin seveda ni šlo. Kljub neskončnih nanosih sončne kreme sem jo tudi letos odnesla s pordelo in razdraženo kožo. In regeneracija je trajala stoleetjaaa (no mogoče pretiravam, ampak 2 tedna pa res!)! Probala sem vse, od jogurta, do Aloe. Slednja je sicer dokaj pomagala, ampak ker sem pač neučakana (in sitna) se je moj fant odločil, da vsemu temu mojemu trpljenju naredi konec. V Sensilabu mi je kupil Oxilver Skin Solution. Ta produkt je zasnovan tako, da hitro regenerira kožo, zaustavi proces staranja te in pa ji povrne svež, zdrav videz. Gre v bistvu za vodo, ki vsebuje ogromno količino aktivnega oksida. Oxilver pomaga tudi pri drugih kožnih boleznih kot je dermatitis, ekcem, luskavica, bradavice, zdravi pa tudi akne!

What are your summer favourites?

Comment down below so I can give them a try ;)!

V komentar mi napiši svoje najljubše izdelke tega poletja! :)

hello girls!

pozdravljena dekleta!

How hot is this palette these past months!?? Everyone wants it! I know I wanted it the same moment I saw its swatches on Instagram...the shadows looked oh so pigmented, soft, creamy, simply heavenly!

But are they in fact all of the above?

Če ste aktivne na različnih socialnih omrežjih ste v zadnjih mesecih prav zagotovo zasledile tole vročo paletko! Ko sem pred približno pol leta zasledila objavo na Instagramu, ki je vsebovala predogled senčk sem jo preprosto morala imeti :) Senčke so izgledale izredno pigmentirane, kremne, skratka nebeške!

Pa so v resnici resnično vse od naštetega?

When you first open the box you see a beautiful golden package which is surprising because usually Makeup Revolution palettes are black. Inside you see 30 different shadows and in the middle there is a brush. An actual two sided brush (it's not the best on the world, but still)...not a sponge! Kudos to Jane Cunningham for that!

Ko odpreš škatlo v kateri se paletka nahaja, najprej vidiš, da je paletka zlate barve! Zlata barva? Res prijetno presenečenje, glede na to da vse "poznavalke" Makeup Revolution-a vemo, da so njihove paletke ponavadi črne. V paletki se nahaja 30 čudovitih barv, ogledalo, na sredini pa je začuda čopič in ne gobica za nanašanje senčil. Še ena pohvala Jane Cunningham za to!

As I mentioned you get 30 shadows in this palette most are shimmery or foil, but you get 11 shadows that are matte. Colors look very pretty, it's a mixed palette that you can use no matter if you like very

neutral, nude makeup look, or if you like to get a little crazy and boldly.

V paletki se, kot je že povedano nahaja 30 različnih senčil od svetlečih/bleščečih, pa tudi 11 povsem matiranih je notri :)

Same barve senčk so izredno lepe, v celoti gre za zelo mešano in vsestransko paletko s katero lahko ustvarjaš popolnoma naravne videze, ali pa bolj odštekane.

When I started swatching it I was slightly disappointed with the strength of the colours. Unlike others in the Makeup Revolution range I have used, you really have to get a lot on the brush before applying for the colours to be that noticeable. The shimmers in the palette are actually really good, but the mate colours have got poor pigmentation. You need to keep on using it over and over again so you can see the colour on your eyelid. The colour payoff leaves something to be desired and there is also a bit of dust fallout, although the levels of both of these are acceptable considering the price. Overall the colours all compliment each other beautifully and are so easy to combine into different looks.

Vsa vzhičena in polna pričakovanj sem se hitro lotila nanašati ličila na roko in s prvim nanosom senčil me je paleta pustila rahlo razočarano.

Sama imam v lasti dokaj veliko število paletk Makeup Revolution-a in do sedaj še nisem bila razočarana glede intenzivnosti barv. Svetleče barve, moram prinati, so zelo dobro pigmentirane, matirane pa izredno slabo. Pri nanosu je hkrati potrebno biti tudi previden, saj prah senčil zelo rad pada iz čopiča na druge predele obraza.

Vseeno je, glede na ceno, paletka v splošnem dobra (zlasti svetleča senčila), z malo pazljivosti in vztrajnosti pri nanosu pa vsekakor lahko ustvarimo raznolike in čudovite videze.

SWATCHES (one layer)

My favourite shadows are Golden Coins, Pink Diamond and Sunset Hour. But I also have been using a lot of Buffer and Peachy in my crease as a transition color. All the colors are buildable, even matte - they need some extra love but they get more intense after a couple of layers.

Meni najljubše senčke so Golden Coins, Pink Diamond in Sunset Hour. Veliko, sploh kot tranzicijsko barvo, pa uporabljam tudi senčki Buffer in Peachy. Vsem barvam v paletki lahko z večkratnim nanosom povečamo intenzivnost pigmentacije, tudi matiranim...je pa za to potrebno malo več časa in živcev :)

So is it worth a hype?

Je vredno vsega booma?

Meh...

I mean it is a nice, versatile palette. If you're a beginner then get it...it's really fun palette to play around with. But if you own other palettes that have similar colors in it you're definitely not going to miss it.

Paletka je načeloma res raznolika in lepa.

Če si začetnica in doma nimaš prav veliko izbire senčil, potem bo ta paletka prava zate, saj se boš lahko z njo igrala in poskušala (po)ustvarjati različne videze.

Če pa si že "veteranka" in tvoje omare doma pokajo od števila paletk, ki vključujejo podobne barve, je prav zagotovo ne boš pogrešala.
