Review: Oriflame The ONE illuskin foundation*


Hello girls and welcome to my blog. In todays little post I am going to show you my current foundation that I use on a daily basis. If your read me for a while you should know that I am a sucker for foundations....well I am a sucker for anything makeup related. 99% of my foundation makeup collection are drugstore brands. I love using drugstore products, I think they are really good (one more then another) and they are also budget friendly. I can always buy more. So the other day I was thinking about Oriflame and Avon cosmetics. As you can probablly already know they are sold throug the consultants. Ok, enough of a ramble. Oriflame kindly sent me a product to try out, and of course I choose a foundation. It is called The ONE illuskin foundation and you can choose several shades. And let me tell you. Firstly I was very skeptical choosing a shade online, but I just went for it. And when I recieved the product in my mail, the first thing was to check the shade if it match. And it was exactly the same as it was drawn online. Yay for choosing the right shade. The foundation itself has SPF 20 and no shimmer. I haven't find it distracting on the pictures yet. For daily daytime use I only use one layer of the foundation plus the concealer. For me it's completely enough. But if I am having a bad skin day, or going out at night or maybe want to look more glam, I put on two to three layers. The foundation is very buildable, which I really like. Even if I put on three layers it does not give you that cakey look. This product will gave you illuminating skin, but don't get me wrong you won't look shiny or oily. Just fresh looking, healthy skin with decent amount of coverage. The ONE illuskin foundation is avalible for only 6.99 € and you can find it here.

Živjo punce in dobrodošle na mojem blogu. Danes bom z vami delila kritiko in opis tekoče podlage. Kot verjetno že veste sem čisto nora na pudrčke...no v bistvu sem prava zbirateljica vsega makeupa. Nekje 99% moje zbirke pudrčkov temelji na znamkah, ki jih lahko dobite v vseh večjih trgovskih centrih. Zelo rada uporabljam te znamke, saj so cenovno dostopnejše, poleg tega pa tudi moj bančni račun ne trpi preveč. Verjetno vse poznate kozmetiki Oriflame in Avon, zato bom kratka. Prodajata se izključno preko posrednikov, in so cenovno ugodnejše. Od kozmetike Oriflame sem v test prejela tekočo podlago The ONE illuskin. Pudrček pride v več odtenkih. Naj vam povem da sem imela kar nekaj težav, kako izbrati pravi odtenek preko spleta, ampak sem nekako poslušala moj šesti čut ko sem primerjala vse barvne odtenke na ekranu. Ko sem dobila paketek domov, sem ga nemudoma odprla in preverila odtenek. In naj vam povem. Popolnoma se ujema z odtenkom moje kože. Hura zame. Tekoča podlaga vsebuje zaščitni faktor 20, česar pa zaenkrat še nisem zasledila na slikah. Za vsakodnevno uporabo namažem le eno plast puderčka. Če pa imam slab dan, in moja koža izgeda res slabo, oziroma kadar se odpravljam ven, pa ponavadi nanesem dve do tri plasti. Vem kaj si mislite. Nika, to izgleda grozno in umetno. Ampak moram vas razočarati. Čeprav nanesete več plasti, vaša koža še vedno zgleda naravno. Puderček je zelo tanek in se hitro vpije v kožo, zato lahko brez slabe vesti nanesete več plasti (pa še rima se...). Izdelek vam bo zakril nepravilnosti in koži podaril svež, svetleč izgled. Ampak ne me razumeti narobe. Ne boste se svetile. The ONE illuskin tekoča podlaga je na voljo tukaj za samo 6.99 €. Upam da vam je bila moja kritika v pomoč pri izbiri pudra ali vas je vsaj malo nasmejala in se beremo naslednjič.

REVOLUTION Romantic Smoked Palette* + SWATCHES...NAKED DUPES??

If you are like me and you love makeup, you know that it can get rather expensive. But not with Revolution makeup. It's super affordable with great quality. I decided to try the Romantic Smoked palette, since I really wanted to rock the purple and rosy shades. The ličila.si was kind enough to send me the palette. It contains twelve eyeshadows and it is a perfect mix of shimmer and matte shades. The 
palette has ultra high payoff. I was really blown away. As you can see on my swatches pictures, that is just one swipe. They also blend very well. The only downside for me is that the shadows don't have names. Which is not so bad. So if you like the Romantic Smoked palette you can purchase it for 5,95 €, 4,75 £, 8,06 $. Also the Revolution paletts are often compered as Naked dupes. I must say that I can see why. 
  

What do you think of Revolution makeup?

DIY CRACKED EFFECT NAIL POLISH



Hello girls. I hope you are all doing well. As you can see I tried cracked effect nail polish from Depend. It was my first time using this kind of nailpolish and I totally fell in love with it. I bougt it on clearence in my drugstore for 1 €, £ 0.86, $ 1.3. It is pretty small, but that is not a problem for me. I picked up beautiful dark blue colour with small shimmers in it.

Let me tell you beauties, this stuff is crazy. It works so great and I love it. It is my new favourite nailpolish. I just didn't expected to work so good. First I applied two coats of Maybelline Colorama nailpolish in the shade Candy Bar. I recomend two to three coats for better coverage and more vibrant colour. When it dried I put one coat od Depend nail polish. And for a note girls. This nailpolish dries so quickly and you have to work super quick. When I dipped brush to put some extra nailpolish on the nail, it already start drying. The best thing is, that you don't need to wait until this dries, because it is an instant dry :) After a minute apply top coat over your nails to seal the manicure and this will lasts you for a long time. You are safe from chipping.

Tell me about your experiences with cracked effect nail polishes?

MISS SPORTY OHH! TAN SO PERFECT REVIEW



Hello beautiful people. Today I am going to do a review of a very affordable bronzer from miss sporty. This brand is sold in drugstores where I live, you can find it in Superdrug and Boots and it has very affordable and cute stuff.
The duo bronzing powder is in the shade 002 Sunny. It is fragrance free and oil-absorbing. You get back from-the-beach tan tone instantly without harmful sun effects. I've been testing this product for a while now (as you can see, I hit a pan) and I am very happy with it. I love the finish and the colour that it gives you. It is not orange at all. It contain shimmers, but it does not make you shiny. I bougt it for 3.5 € or 5 $ or 2.99 £. As you can see it is very cheap, but it is one of my favourite bronzers. Deffenetly my summer essential.
Do you know miss sporty, or do you own any of their stuff??

Thank you for reading

MAYBELLINE POPSTICKS REVIEW + SWATCHES

Hello beauties. Today we are going to have fun, because we are going to be talking about Maybelline ColorSensational popsticks. They come in four amazing shades, and I picked 030 pink lollipop (13 $ or10€). The cool part is that they are transperent and the packeging has a mirror on the top, so you can see where to put it. The smell is amazing, very fruity. The shade that I picked, 030, is hot pink with purple shimmer. They are super super moisturizing, but you have to know, that they do not have the pigmentation of a normal lipstick. They look like a lipbalm. It claims that after you apply this on your lips, it should look like you just had a popstick. I really like this product, and it will be my summer essential for sure. I never feel like wearing heavy lipstick in the summer. I have to try the coral one, since orange lips are so in. The look that they give you is very natural, but better then your lips.

Do you already have maybelline popsticks?

FOTD#2

Hello girls. Today I am sharing another fotd. It is neutral and very day appropriate. I use shimmery dark purple on my lid and matt brown in the crease. I decided to go with purple, because I think it goes perfect with green frames. Plus I love having colours on my eyes during spring and summer.

 

Do you even notice that I wear purple?

Have a great day

OVAL NAILS BACK IN STYLE?

Hello nail junkies. For a long time I have been watching pictures of celebrities rocking oval shape nails. Firs I didn't really like the look, but lately I fell in love. I think they are super sexy and different. Also your fingers will appear slimmer. Oval shape is going to be super popular for spring and summer with bright colours. Today I made my nails oval with gold shimmer. I think they are super cute. My nailpolish is from essence, iced latte. I love this colour, it is super neutral and pigmented. Then I put gold shimmer on my bottom third of a nail. And we are all done.

Do you like ovals, or do you think they are so 80's??
If you like them let me know.

Best of Essence

Essence is a German brand of make-up and other beauty products. It is super cheap, so it is amazing for teens, if you want to expand your make-up collection, or if you are just looking great make-up on a budget. 

iluminating make-up base; for a natural glowing, radiant complexion, moisturizes the skin, conceals small imperfections. It also makes foundation application easier and extends its wear.
This make-up base really does what it claims. I was more then satisfied with the coverage that it gives you. And when you put foundation over it, it gives you perfect glow. Mine is peachy, pink colour and it suits dark skin tones perfectly.
forget it! 3 in 1 concealer; this is probably the best products from essence. You get pink, beige and green colours for covering up imperfections on your face. The consistancy is so creamy and it glides on your face like butter. Love the pink and the beige one, as you can see I'm not a big fan of a green one.
silky touch blush in babydoll; pretty pink blush for fresh looking skin, Perfect for Valentine's day look! It lasts all day and it is pretty pigmented.
lash&brow gel mascara; clear mascara which I use for my eyebrows. I wrote a post on this-wasn't really happy with it, but now I fall in love!! Great product and it holds my eyebrows all day long.
gel eyeliner in Midnight in Paris; high precision eyeliner, waterproof. It is creamy, ultra black, matt gel eyeliner and it does not smudge. I use it every day and I am very happy with it- classiy black! Plus the paskaging looks more expensive then it is. It comes in glass.
stay all day long lasting eyeshadow in coppy right and steel the show; cream eyeshadows with great pigmentation. Does not crease. You get a ton of product becaus little goes a long way and you will have it for a long time.
metallic effect eyeshadow in party all night. Great eyeshadow which is super soft. The colour speaks for itself. BEAUTIFUL!
glam liner, liquid eyeliner in rising star; most amazing brush- really thin and precise! I use it under my waterline. Great for holiday makeup.
metallic eye pencil in lilectric; super pigmented and amazig colour effect. Use it under my water line for a pop of colour. Really compliments dark, brown eyes.
sun club, 100% splash-proof eye pencil in ultra black; pigmented black eyeliner, which is not waterproof, but it stays all day on my eyes. It contains slight shimmers and does not work on waterline. But under your waterline it is super pretty and it really is longlasting.
blush brush; I put a post about this brush already and I love it. Soft, soft, soft..hot pink- great combination.
gel eyeliner brush; Find this brush is too thick for eyeliner, but is amzing for putting on eyeshadows and smudging my pencil eyeliner.
Swatches from left: makeup base, blush, gel eyeliner, metallic eyeshadow, liguid eyeliner-silver, metallic eye pencil, black eye pencil, cream eyeshadows in coppy right and steel the show
