Battle of the primers: First impression / Prajmeri; prvi utisci

It is time for this girl to grow up and start using some real products. Let's face it; when building makeup collection primers are usually not the first thing that will pop up in your mind (well they will, if you are serious about makeup or really responsable person; like this girl is not), becuase there are a loads fun products out there to play around with. And the reason why it took me, so long to actually pick some of them up, is because I thouhgt they won't make such a difference or transform your look. At the time instead of primer any moisturizer would work.













But it is time to get serious, so I went and bought some well-known primers. Porefessional by Benefit and Primed and poreless by Too faced.
To try them out I picked them in minis, so I could compare them and decide which one is more suitable for my skin.
These two are really simmilar in consistency (athough Primed and Poreless is a bit thicker) and what both manufactures were going for is that poreless look, that will be like a canvas for foundation and other face products. They are both silicon based so they won't moisturize as much but will even your skin. That sounds really promising, if you ask me.

So first impressions: They feel really nice and not heavy on skin (especially Porefessional one) and leave skin feeling super soft and smooth. Yes, my pores are not as visible as they used to be, but my face is still not perfectly even because they are still some acne scars on my cheeks that are not complitely filled in. I don't think that they made my foundation last longer than usual.
They come in handy for those of us that don't have perfect looking skin but they are still not my every day must have products.
I will keep using both of them and you will probably see my final thoughts is this months favorites. Until then, I want to know: Are primers like these ones every day must haves for you or more for special occasions?

Mislim da je bilo kranje vreme da se malo uozbiljim i da u svoju dnevnu rutinu ukljucim prajmere. Da budemo iskreni dosta devojaka preskace ovak korak, prvo zato sto su tek nedavno nase drogerije pocele da ih uvoze (sledeci koji zelim da probam je Baby skin), a i ne primecuju se toliko na licu za razliku od drugih proizvoda. Ono sto me je sada privuklo ovim proizvodima je blistava koza sa smanjenom vidljivosti pora i nesavršenosti.












Odlucila sam se za mini verzije poznatog Benefitovog Porefessional-a (cini mi se oko 1500 dinara) i Too faced verziju Primed and Poreless (mini verzije nema u prodaji vec samo u setovima). Prvo da istaknem da im je struktura dosta slicna, sa tim da je Primed and poreless malo gusci. Oba prajmera su na bazi silikona sto omogucava da smanje vidljivost pora, ali za razliku od nekih drugih prajmera ovi nece hidrirati kozu. Ono sto proizvodjaci obecavaju je: smanjen izgled pora, izjednacena koza i duze trajanje pudera.

Moji prvi utisci: Oba prajmera se slicno ponasaju tako da je jos uvek neizvesno koji ce biti favorit. Meni je potrebna mala kolicina to i nanosim na obraze i vrlo malo na celo gde uglavnom imam oziljke od bubuljica. Na licu se osecaju dosta lagano i koza posle nanosenja bude veoma mekana i svilenkasta. Sto se tice smanjenja vidljivosti pora, tu rade posao, ali ,,rupe" od bubuljica mi se jos uvek vide, tako da mi koza nije u potpunosti izjednacena. Nisam primetila da mi puder zbog njih nesto duze traje, ali ga zato lakse nanosim. 
Ja cu nastaviti da koristim oba zato mislim da su meni sa problematicnom kozom korisni, ali mislim da nisu nesto sto je svakome neophodno.
Sada zelim da znam sta vi mislite; da li su ovakvi prajmeri nesto obavezno sto biste koristile svakog dana ili su za neke posebne prilike?

New holy grail; L'oreal Infallible foundation / L'oreal Infallible tecni puder

And drugstore foundation queen is back! Time has come to try out famous L'oreal foundations that everyone seems to love.

First just to say why I needed this much time to put my hands on this product. I tried to buy it couple times but when lady in drugstore told me that L'oreal foundations have loads of oils, I stepped back. I have super oily and acne prone skin, so this was a great turn down for me, and it was pain to hear all those people recommend and swear by these foundations and not try them. But when they were on sale and I just couldn't resist.
And now after using it for almost a month I can say that it didn't brake me out or anything similar what is one of the most important thing for me when using makeup.
Now that we cleared that up, to start with real review. This foundation comes in pretty basic glass container with pump which is useful and I didn't have any problem with.When it comes to choosing right shade I have a bit pale skin (Mac NC 15) and that is usually problem when buying foundation in drugstore. I bought Infallible foundation in shade 130 true beige (lightest shade) and it looks pretty good on my skin.













Next I want to talk about coverage which is what this foundation is famous for. It has medium to high coverage, which mostly is what I am looking for in foundation. It is buildable and it covers blemishes really good, so I don't need any concelear or corrector on spots. And what I also like is that you don't feel like it is heavy on your skin or like you have mask (usually problem with foundations with better coverage).
It has natural finish not complitely matte which I think is great especially for summer but it isn't devy eather, so girls with oily skin can use it too.

And what is also good about this foundation is that it stays on pretty long. This is first time since I started using makeup that I didn't felt need to use setting powder to make my foundation last longer. Yes, it always helps if you lock your foundation with powder and mattify it, but during summer months when most of us want to use as little face products as possible, you can use this foundation on its own and it will still be there after couple hours.

So all in all, I am in love with this foundation and I can't wait to try out more foundations from L'oreal (especially pro-matte version of this one).
Hope you like this post and what are your thoughts about this foundation? Hot or not product, tell me in comments


I drage moje, kraljica pudera iz drogerija je ponovo u akciji! Posto sebe smatram beauty blogerkom u pokusaju smatram da je stvarno bilo krajnje vreme da isprobam i cuvene L'oreal tecne pudere.

Prvo da razjasnim zasto mi je bilo potrebno ovoliko vremena da ih testiram. Pokusala sam da ih kupim nekoliko puta, ali mi je u glavi ostao savet devojke koja radi u parfimeriji, da ne kupujem ove pudere zato sto sadrze dosta ulja i to moze na mojoj inace masnoj kozi da izazove jos vise bubuljica, tako da pravim vecu stetu nego sto imam korist. Tako da bilo je mucenje da slusam toliko devojaka koje se kunu u ove pudere, a da ih sama ne probam, i naravno kada su bili na snizenju nisam mogla da odolim. 
Sada posle mesec dana koriscenja zelim da kazem da mi L'oreal Infallible tecni puder nije izazvao nikakve bubuljice ili promene na kozi.
I kada smo to stavili na stranu da pocnemo sa samim utiscima o ovom puderu. Puder dolazi u obicnoj staklenoj bocici sa pumpicom, sto je uvek pohvalno.













Sto se tice nijansi u kojima dolazi moram da pohvalim L'oreal. Ja imam svetliji ten (Mac NC 15) i ponekada mi je izazov da pronadjem odgovarajuce nijanse u drogerijama ali najsvetlija nijansa 130 True beige mi sasvim odgovara.
Ono po cemu je ovaj tecni puder poznat jeste pokrivna moc. Ima srednju do potpunu pokrivnu moc sto ja uglavnom ocekujem od tecnog pudera. Dosta dobro mi je prekrio bubuljice i nesavrsenosti na licu, tako da je ovo  zaista jedan od retkih pudera preko kog ne moram da nanosim korektor da bih prekrila sve sto zelim. Iako ima ovakvu prekrivnu moc, ovaj puder nema taj efekat maske i ne oseca se preterano tesko na licu. 
Finis nije ni mat a ni sjajan, tako da najpribliznije sto bih mogla da ga opisem je prirodno.
Sto se tice trajanja na licu, tu je takodje ispunio ocekivanja. Svi znamo je uvek bolje da setujemo tecni puder kamenim (ili u prahu) ali u ovim letnjim mesecima mislim da tezimo da imamo sto manje slojeva na licu, tako da ja dajem mali odmor mom Rimmel Stay matte puderu u kamenu i koristim samo ovaj tecni puder (hrabro za nekoga ko ima masnu kozu). 
Sve u svemu, ja sam kao sto se da primetiti odusevljena i sigurna sam da cu u skorije vreme probati jos tecnih pudera od L'oreal-a. 
Nadam se da vam se svideo ovaj post i recite mi da li ste vi probale ovaj puder i kakvi su utisci.


Long waited May favorites / Dugo ocekivani favoriti za maj

Hello everyone so I finally put myself together and collected products I have been using for last month and here they are their majesty may favorites.

Summer is here and that means I completely changed my makeup routine so what you see here are products that I was using on daily bases. Let's jump in then!

Starting of with my newest discovery from drugstore. It is L'oreal Infallible 24h foundation and I can say that it quickly became my go to foundation and it is one of best foundations that I have tried. More about it you will read in my next post.

To continue with face products. Next one I've been loving is Mac Prolongwear concelear. Even though I don't contour my face every day I love to highlight my under eye area and I feel like it does make a difference. It makes me look a lot more awake and alive. It has amazing coverage so I sometimes use it before foundation to cover blemishes and what surprised me most is that it last really long and that it won't crease or move. If this wasn't enough check out my review here.


mascara and eyeliner in action













When it comes to mascara I will say that Too faced Better than sex and They're real set up some real high standards. I was a bit scared when I went and bought mascara based on its packaging and brush and without knowing anything about it. Well I made good choice. L'oreal False Lash wings is my mascara of the month. It gives great length if you use a little "comb" but also separates lashes and gives volume when you use it as a regular rounded brush without lashes being spiky. This may sounded a bit weird but you can see brush on picture to see what was I talking about.

Since lately I was all about that bad-ass look, winged eyeliner is must have. It is actually a rediscovery cause when I first started using make up my hardest goal to achive was thin winged eyeliner and what I have been using to achieve this is Essence Liquid ink eyeliner. It is so inexpensive but it does great job and it won't smudge during entire day.

Moving on to hair products. I usually stick to shampoo, conditoner and dry shampoo when it comes to hair but recently my hair was dry and it didn't have that healthy shine so I needed to do something and turned to oils - Amika hair oil to be exact. This oil made my hair silky and to look a bit less damaged but you really have to be careful with it and use tiny amount otherwise it could look a bit greasy.

This month was Eurovision song contest 2015. I am such a fan girl when it comes to Eurovision and this year was no exception, and even today on my playlist you will find at least half of this year enteries.


I was doing a lot reading this month so there are two book favorites. First one is Looking for Alaska by John Green. This book is so different from anything else I read and there is a reason why this book, and John Green, are so popular. I can relate to Miles so much, with that fitting in  part and finding Great perhaps and wanting more from life. 




Next one is a bit different, and I still have 20 pages left, but I have to share it. I hate my selfie by Shane Dawson is the one of the rare books that Youtuber wrote and that I had to read. He also talks about teen years and some important stuff in his life but in totally different way, with loads of humor.

I think this was enough for month of may. Hope you guys like this post and what have you been loving lately? 

Cao devojke,  ja sam se konacno malo sredila i sakupila proizvode koje sam koristila proslog meseca pa sada zelim da ih podelim. Predstavljam vam dugo ocekivane favorite za maj;

Mislim da se leto vec oseca, sto znaci da sam izmenila moju rutinu i ovi proizvodi koje sada vidite su ono sto sam koristila svakodnevno.

Pocinjemo sa mojim najnovijim otkricem iz drogerija. To je  L'oreal Infallible tecni puder. Ovaj puder mi je veoma brzo nasao put do korpice sa mojim omiljenim proizvodima i vise o njemu procitacete u sledecem postu.
Sledece sto sam koristila od proizvoda za lice je Mac prolongwear korektor. Ja ovaj korektor ne mogu dovoljno da nahvalim. Uglavnom ga koristim za posvetljivanje predela ispod ociju, sto na mom licu pravi veliku razliku zato sto izgledam dosta svezije i odmornije. Takodje ovaj korektor ima odlicnu prekrivnu moc tako da kada zelim da bas pokrijem sve nesavrsenosti koristim ga pre pudera. Detaljnije o ovom proizvodu; ovde.
Kada su u pitanju maskare mogu da kazem da su Too faced Better than sex i Benefit They're real postavile prilicno visoke standarde. I iskrena da budem nisu me vise privlacile drogerijske maskare, ali u jednom trenutku su mi sve maskare bile skoro suve tako da sam bez razmisljanja otisla u drogeriju u kupila Loreal False lash wings maskaru. Nisam cula da ljudi pricaju o njoj, tako da nisam znala sta da ocekujem i jedini razlog zbog koga sam se odlucila za nju su pakovanje i cetkica, ali evo je danas u favoritima. Ova maskara daje dobru duzinu ali ne slepi trepavice, vec ih lepo razdvoji za sta sluzi mali cesalj. I mozda je ovo zvucalo malo cudno ali na slici se nadam se vidi o cemu pricam.


maskara i ajlajner u akciji











U poslednje vreme mi se veoma dopao bad-ass look tako da je winged ajlajner must have. Kada sam tek pocinjala da se sminkam, ono sto je meni predstavljalo savrenstvo je tanak winged ajlajner i smatrala sam da kada to postignem (citaj izvezbam) da cu znati sve o sminkanju (sto je sada daleko od istine ali pokusajte to objasnite devojcici od 14 godina). U svakom slucaju sada sam ponovo zavolela takav izgled tako da sam koristila Essence Liquid ink ajlajner. Ajlajner je stvar na kojoj mogu da kazem da ustedim zato sto mi je ovaj savrsen; dosta je lak za koriscenje, ne razmazuje se u toku dana i dosta dugo traje. 
Da predjemo na proizvode za kosu. Ne znam kog razloga ali uglavnom se drzim samo sampona, balzama i sampona za suvo pranje. Probala sam neke maske za kosu ali nisam videla neku drasticnu razliku tako da sada kada sam primetila da mi je kosa dosta suva i da je izgubila svoj prirodni sjaj posegnula sam za Amika uljem. Prvo samo da kazem da obozavam miris ovog ulja i kosa mi kada ga koristim mirise negovano (nadam se da ovo ima smisla). Potrebna je samo mala kolicina, inace krajevi mogu da izgledaju malo masno, ali ako se pravilno koristi cini da kosa izgleda zdravije i daje malo sjaja.

U maju je odrzana Evrovizija i dan-danas na mojoj playlisti se nalazi polovina od pesama koje su tada predstavljene. Veliki sam fan ovog takmicenja, sta vise da kazem.

U poslednje vreme sam se malo posvetila citanju i imam dve knjige kao favorite. Prva je U potrazi za Aljaskom, Dzon Grin. Ova knjiga me je odusevila i veoma je drugacija od svega sto sam ranije procitala i postoji razlog zasto su knjige Dzona Grina toliko popularne medju tinejdzerima. Obuhvata sve periode odrastanja i mogu da se poistovetim sa Majlsom na toliko nacina, pocevsi od uklapanja u drustvo do trazenja Velikog mozda.


I druga knjiga je I hate myselfie a autor je Youtuber Shane Dawson. Ova knjiga nazalost nije prevedena na nas jezik ali se na internetu moze naci na engleskom za one koji su zainteresovani. Meni je do kraja ove knjige preostalo jos 20 strana ali ovo sto sam do sada procitala je dovoljno da je stavim u favorite. Ovde je takodje opisan zivot tinejdzera i problemi sa kojim se on suocava ali na skroz drugi nacin; kroz humor i sale na svoj racun.

Mislim da je bilo dovoljno favorita za maj i nadam se da vam se svideo ovaj post. Recite mi u komentarima sta ste vi voleli u poslednje vreme.

Guest post; Summer wishlist by Lady life

Guys I can't tell you how much I am excited for my first collab (in bloggers world guest post). Today my guest will be Holly Reed from Lady life and I want to thank her for this great experience.

Hi there! The gorgeous Sparkly Goddess is going to put her feet up for a while, while I tell you all about my summer wish list. I'm Holly, a blogger from Ireland with my own awesome site Lady life. Not just your typical blog sharing reviews and beauty tips, you can find a whole lot more like recipes, life guides and tutorials. Be sure to come and check it out! I thought share with you my Summer Wish List! I find it seriously hard to write wish lists (because I just want everything!!!) But I am going to make a super huge effort because Sparkly Goddess wrote a post for my blog when my old PC died and I was stuck! I have 3 products on my wish list, all of which are high end brands but I think it's nice to dream big. Especially since so many drugstore brands have "dupes" of the high end products anyways so you can just pick them up instead!

MAC Lightful C Tinted Cream (with SPF 30 and Radiance Booster)
This is new from MAC for summer that is like one of those multitasking products; it has all the loveliness of a Colour Corrector but it also reduces imperfections, controls oil and increases the radiance of your skin too. What I love about this products is the Radiance Booster and vitamin C infused in the cream work together to correct your overall complexion over time. So little niggles like pores, dark spots and hyper­pigmentation. Actually thinking about it, I have recently been using a cleansing brush that has done all these wonderful things for my skin too! It also has SPF 30/PA+++ which forms a protective barrier against UVA/UVB rays. There are 9 shades available and a 40ml tube (pictured) costs £25.50 from MAC.

Bobbi Brown Long Wear Cream Shadow Stick in Golden Pink 


How amazing is this colour?! This shimmery golden, pinky peach just screams summertime! These shadow sticks are long­lasting with a budge­proof formula that stays put for 8 hours so it's not gonna melt in the heat or run down your cheeks if you get splashed in the pool. It's so easy to use too, just swipe and run! You look amazing in one stroke! These come 18 shades including 7 new summer shades. These cost £20 from Bobbi Brown.

Yves Saint Laurent Gloss Volupté Summer Look 2015 in Shade 50 Orange Sagette 

I think orange­toned pinks and reds will be seriously hot this summer! That's why it's perfect for the summer. It's a lightweight, non­sticky lip gloss with glitter flecks for a truly carefree summer vibe. I absolutely love this shade and the effect this gloss has on your lips will make any passerby's ice cream melt! There are 2 shades in the summer collection and you can get them for £22 from YSL

Those are my 3 top picks for this summer, all in some seriously smokin' shades that are bang on trend! If you've got any of these products please do share with me what you think! I'd hate to buy them if they're rubbish haha!
 Don't forget to come and visit me over on www.theladylifeblog.com for more cool posts. You can also check out my Instagram and my Bloglovin' too, if you fancy it!

Building my makeup collection / Kako sam napravila kolekciju sminke?

So guys I decided to turn one of my favorite type of makeup videos into a post. This is first thing that I want to read/watch when I discover new blogger/vlogger and I while reading/watching I always dream of having something similar one day.
The only nice organized part of my makeup collection


 Early beginnings; We all start somewhere and my earliest memory of using makeup  was when I was about 12. I used to be obsessed (and this is right word) with black pencil eyeliners that I used in waterline. It made me feel so special and it is still one of my favorite makeup products but I use it only in special occasions.

Bourjois 123 Perfect foundation, Vichy Dermablend, Rimmel Stay matte,Maybelline 
Color tattoo eyeshadow, Better than sex mascara, Too faced Primed&poreless primer
I officially started using makeup when I was around 16 years old and what made me do that were You tube videos (Krazyrayray and Ingrid Nilsen to be percised). I remember binge watching their old videos and thinking about starting using makeup. But I wasn't too crazy about puberty (I guess I still don't want to grow up) and makeup was kind of part of this entire transition between being girl and women. Still I wanted to look like them and be pretty so I started secretly using makeup when no one else was around. And then I slowly started wearing it to school (first mascara, then I added eyeliner and in the end foundation). I am not sure that I want to remember those moments because panda eye is stil not in trend and two shades darker foundation will never be in.

Products that I use on daily bases
But that was the beginning and as we have all heard "Practice makes perfection". Even though I had makeup routine and used only these three products that haven't stopped me from watching beauty videos on You tube or wanting to try out every product that someone mentiones. And that's how I started piling on makeup products that I would try out and use them couple times and then pass them to my mum or just forget about them.
Around that time I really started being into reading blogs and I set up my own (as you can notice all of this wasnt too long ago). Now I have excuse to actually buy makeup that I really want even tough I won't use it every single day.

Chocolate Soleil bronzer, Better than sex
mascara, Primed&poreless,
Shadow insurance



First high-end product: As almost every sixteen-year-old girl I have always dreamed of buying makeup from Sephora and first thing I actully bought is this makeup set from Too faced called Beauty blogger darlings and if you don't know already I love every single product from this set.


First Mac product: I bought it very recenty and I was so excited that I did full post about it: http://bit.ly/1FNHdzz

To wrap this post up; Building makeup collection is not something you can do for one month. It takes some time and this was my story; what's yours?

Drage moje danas sam odlucila da pretvorim jedan od mojih omiljenih tipova videa u post. Kolekcije sminke su prva stvar koju citam/gledam kod drugih blogerki i uvek sam sanjala da i sama imam nesto slicno.
Jedini dobro organizovan deo moje kolekcije

Rani poceci; Svi mi negde pocinjemo i moje najranije secanje vezano za sminku je period kada sam imala oko 12 godina. Tada sam se prvi put susrela sa "pravom" sminkom (ne racunam one decije senke i sjajice) i bila sam opsednuta (da, to je prava rec) crnom olovkom za oci. Osecala sam se mnogo lepse i posebno kada sam je stavljala i do dana danasnjeg ostala je jedan od mojih omiljenih proizvoda, iako je sada uglavnom koristim za specijalne prilike.
Bourjois 123 Perfect puder, Vichy Dermablend, Rimmel Stay matte,Maybelline
Color tattoo senka, Better than sex maskara, Too faced Primed&poreless prajmer
Zvanicno sam pocela da se sminkama kada sam imala oko 16 godina i to zbog You tube videa koje sam gledala (tacnije vlogerki Ingrid Nilsen i Krazyrayray). Secam se da sam ih gledala i zelela da i ja probam da se sminkam. Ali nisam osoba koja je bila najsrecnija zbog puberteta i sve promene sam burno prihvatala tako da sam i sminku gledala kao deo celog ovog procesa kada se menjamo. Medjutim zelja da budem lepa je preovladala i pocela sam da se krijem i sminkam (ne pitajte koja je to logika bila). Zatim sam pocela da se sminkam kada idem u skolu (2. godina srednje, malo sam zakasnila) i prvo sam koristila samo maskaru, zatim i ajlajner i na kraju puder. Ne zelim bas da se prisecam tog perioda posto ajlajner preko pola kapka i nijansu tamniji puder nikada nece biti u trendu.

Ali to je bio pocetak a kao sto smo svi vec culi vezba vodi do savrsenstva. Iako sam vec imala neku vrstu rutine kada je sminkanje u pitanju, i koristila sam ova tri proizvoda, to me nije sprecilo da i dalje gledam beauty blogere (vlogere) i da zelim da probam svaki proizvod koji spomenu. Tako sam pocela da nagomilavam proizvode koje bih uglavnom samo isprobala i prosledila mami ili jednostavno zaboravila.
Otprilike tada sam otkrila beauty blogove i sama osnovala jedan (kao sto mozete primetiti sve ovo se nije desavalo tako davno). I konacno sam imala dobar izgovor za kupovinu novih proizvoda koje necu koristiti bas svakoga dana.

Chocolate Soleil bronzer,
Better than sex 
mascara,
Primed&poreless,Shadow insurance
Prvi high-end proizvod:  Dugo sam se divila proizvodima u Sephori, dok konacno nisam kupila Christmas Beauty must haves set od Too faced-a i danas obozavam svaki proizvod iz ovog seta.

Prvi Mac proizvod; Ja sam se odusevila kada se Mac otvorio kod nas i kada nam je konacno postala dostupna marka koja je toliko poznata i koju svi hvale. Bila sam presrecna kada sam kupila prvi proizvod i vise o njemu: http://bit.ly/1FNHdzz

I da zakljucimo; praviti kolekciju sminke je proces koji traje (pogotovo sto se sminka trosi) i nije nesto sto je gotovo za mesec dana. Potrebno je vreme i ovo je bila moja prica, koja je vasa?



Summer beauty wishlist! / Lista zelja za leto

Although summer hasn't started yet, and I am still loving my pastels there are a lot of things I am so excited to try out this summer. And Sephora brands have been killing it lately with new releases, just saying (who can be not excited when there are brand new stuff around?) Bright lips and sun kissed look, I have missed you.
1. Maybelline Lash sensational mascara - I have heard only good things about this one and reason why I haven't picked it up yet is that I am more crazy volume type of girl, but I would like to try it out
2. Bourjois rouge edition Velvet in Ole flamingo
3. L'oreal La palette Nude eyeshadow palette rose - looks like a great Naked 3 dupe
4. Cover Fx Custom cover drops - idea of pure pigments sounds amazing and I don't think you get better coverage than this and everyone seem to love it
5. Becca highlighter in Opal - bloggers make me want this product so bad
6. L'oreal Infallible mattifying base - I am so lazy when it comes to primers but I feel like I would love to use this one
7. Max factor Creme puff blush in Lavish mauve 
8. Too faced Melted metal lipstick in Metallic macaron - such a gorgeus shade for summer and the only thing that I haven't tried out from Too faced are their lip products and foundations so I better put my hands on this soon
9. Make up forever Pro bronze fusion

I know that this wishlist will keep growing but that's all for now. I hope that you like it and tell me what have you been craving from makeup products recently?

Iako nam leto jos uvek nije stiglo, a ja i dalje volim prolecne pastelne boje, primetila sam (ili cula) da je izaslo dosta novih proizvoda koje veoma zelim da isprobam ovog leta. I brendovi koje drzi Sephora su upravo izbacili (ili ce uskoro) mnostvo novih proizvoda (vec sam pocela da sklanjam novac na stranu zato sto ce mi biti potreban cim budem videla nesto od ovoga). Jarke upecatljive usne i osuncano lice, nedostajali ste mi.
1. Maybelline Lash sensational maskara - o ovoj maskari sam iskreno cula samo najbolje i jedini razlog zbog koga je jos nisam kupila je sto ja uglavnom vise koristim maskare koje daju volumen a ne duzinu. U svakom slucaju volela bih da je probam
2. Bourjois rouge edition Velvet u nijansi Ole flamingo
3. L'oreal La palette nude eyeshadow paleta rose - ovo mi izgleda kao odlican dupe za Naked 3 paletu i nadam se da ce uskoro stici kod nas
4. Cover Fx Custom cover drops 
5. Becca hajlajter u nijansi Opal
6. L'oreal Infaliblle matirajuca baza - jedan od retkih drogerijskih prajmera koji umanju izgled pora, a pritom i matira
7. Max factor Creme puff rumenilo u nijansi Lavish mauve
8. Too faced Melted tecni ruz u nijansi Metallic macaron- ova nijansa mi izgleda savrseno za leto i jedini proizvodi koje nisam probala od Too faced-a su puderi i proizvodi za usta i potrudicu se da ovaj propust ispravim uskoro
9. Make up forever Pro bronze fusion

Znam da ce ova lista nastaviti da raste do leta ali to je to za sada. Nadam se da vam se svideo ovaj post i recite mi sta biste vi novo zeleli da probate.

Writer's block, Where I am now? / Kreativna blokada, gde sam sada?

Tag
So guys long time no talk? Yes I know, which is one of the reasons why I decided to share this post with you even though it is a step out of my comfort zone. It would be great if just one persone could relate to this post cause I know that I am not the only one that is going through this.

Writers block, well we have all heard for it, if not experienced it. I think that it doesn't necessarily need to be bad thing. Creating something good is a process and not everything can go smoothly.
And someone is probably asking what that has to do with beauty blog?
 I created this blog as a place for me to share my thoughts about stuff that I am interested in (and yes, that is mostly make up) but sometimes I feel need to write about some meaningful things. I have never been good in separating private and public things so in my case is what you see or read  is what you get, no pass overs.
Getting back on topic. My emotions basically control everything I do. I sometimes find myself having couple lazy days in a row and sometimes beeing so busy and productive that I feel like I can rule the world. And that reflects on my blog too. On those busy days I can find inspiration in smallest things, one picture can inspire me to change a lot of stuff but on lazy days I just take a break and with that every inspiration is just gone.

The only advice I can give someone is to just take a little time and don't push anything.  Yes I know it could be a little bit nerve wracking but it will all be back to normal. I was a bit worried and it made me question where was I going with this. Made me question how hard I am willing to work to make this blog successful. I have heard somewhere that a lot of blogs after six months just disappear. People are not getting results they expected so they just give up. That is not my case and you guys won't get rid of me any time soon.

Sorry that this post was kind of random and all over place but again I would be thrilled if just one person could relate to this post.

Znam, dugo nije bilo posta i to je jedan od razloga zasto sam se odlucila da bas ovo podelim sa vama, iako me pricanje o ovome malo izbacuje iz komfort zone. Bila bih odusevljena ako bi bar jedna osoba mogla da se poistoveti sa ovim sto cu podeliti zato sto znam da nisam jedina koja prolazi kroz nesto ovako.
Prvo znam da smo svi culi za kreativnu blokadu, ako ne i iskusili. Ja smatram da kreativna blokada nije nuzno nesto lose. Stvaranje neceg dobrog je proces i nikada ne ide sve po planu.

I sigurna sam da se neko pita kakve ovo veze ima sa blogom o kozmetici? Osnovala sam ovaj blog kao mesto gde mogu da podelim svoja razmisljanja o stvarima koje me interesuju ( i da, to je uglavnom sminka) ali nekada imam potrebu i da pisem o znacajnijim stvarima. Nikada nisam bila dobra u razdvajanju privatnih i javnih stvari tako da u mom slucaju ono sto vidite ili procitate to i dobijete bez precutkivanja. Ima to i dobrih strana.
Da se vratim na temu. Moje emocije kontrolisu sve sto radim. Primetila sam da mi se desi da se nekoliko dana za redom izlezavam dok se nekada skroz preokupiram i ne znam gde udaram. Takve stvari se odrazavaju i na blog. Kada sam dobro raspolozena u stanju sam da nadjem inspiraciju i u jednoj recenici ili slici ali  ponekada samo uzmem pauzu i tada svaka inspiracija nestaje.

Jedini saveti koje mogu da podelim su da u ovakvim situcijama uzmete malo vremena i da ne navaljujete. Znam da moze da bude nezgodno ali to je sve deo procesa i sve ce se vratiti u normalu. Ja sam bila malo zabrinuta i to me je nateralo da se zapitam gde sam isla sa ovim blogom. Koliko sam spremna da tesko radim da bi od ovoga napravila nesto uspesno. Cula sam da dosta blogova posle sest meseci nestaje. Ljudi ne dobiju ocekivane rezultate i odustaju. To nije moj slucaj, i mozda sada nisam ispunila sva ocekivanja ali ja sam ovde na duge staze.

Znam da je ovaj post malo neocekivan i nesredjen ali opet nadam se da ce se bar neko pronaci i da ce se bar nekome dopasti.



What is in my travel makeup bag? +exciting news / Šta je u mom neseseru za putovanje+ uzbudljive vesti

Hey guys so I wanted to share something exciting with you! At Wednesday I will be going to Vienna so it is going to be something like extended weekend. I need a little break so bad and I feel like spring is the best time for travelling. And for me most exciting part is packing. I know that most of people find it super annoying it but I really enjoy it except the part where I have to leave some stuff or forget something(because I always temp to overpack).


And I know what are you thinking how much make up do I need for 5 days? Well the answer is pretty self explanatory.
I already use most of these products on daily bases and until I saw them all together I haven't realized that I am using all these stuff!
But anyways here are the products I will bring with me: 
Bourjois Healthy mix foundation     Rimmel Stay matte powder                              Vichy Dermablend
Mac Pro longwear concelear            Too faced Chocolate soleil bronzer   Rimmel Lasting finish blush
Loreal False lash wings mascara      Too faced Better than sex mascara      Loreal Gel intenza eyeliner
Rimmel pencil eyeliner                     Maybelline Color tattoo eyeshadow     Essence eyebrow designer
Rimmel Apocalips in Celestial         Rimmel Lasting finish lipstick in 12
And if you were wondering my sparkly make up bag is from Too faced set Everything nice.

Now lets bring something new in! My skin care stuff (and for my face I am using some cleansers and spot drying treatments that my dermatologist recommended so thats why I haven't shown face stuff ). And you can see that I am pretty much obsessed with Nivea body products.

That would be all for today I hope you like this post and tell me what kind of post from Vienna would you like to see?

Dragi moji danas sam sam htela da podelim sa vama nesto uzbudljivo. U sredu putujem u Bec na 5 dana i iskreno ne mogu da docekam. Toliko mi je potreban mali odmor i mislim da je prolece najbolje vreme za ovakav obilazak. 
I sada za mene najuzbudljiviji deo pakovanje. Znam da vecina ljudi mrzi ovaj deo ali ja naprosto uzivam da se pakujem izuzev dela gde uglavnom zaboravim nesto ili ponesem previse stvari

Znam da se pitate koliko mi je smike potrebno za 5 dana ali mislim da je ova slika prilicno dobar odgovor.
Vecinu ovih stvari koristim svakodnevno i dok nisam sve skupila nisam ni shvatila koliko sminke ustvari koristim!

U svakom slucaju ovo su proizvodi :
Bourjois Healthy mix tecni puder     Rimmel Stay matte kompaktni puder              Vichy Dermablend
Mac Pro longwear korektor        Too faced Chocolate soleil bronzer   Rimmel Lasting finish rumenilo
Loreal False lash wings maskara     Too faced Better than sex maskara       Loreal Gel intenza ajlajner
Rimmel kreon                                   Maybelline Color tattoo senka              Essence eyebrow designer
Rimmel Apocalips u Celestial          Rimmel Lasting finish ruz u nijansi 12

I ako ste se pitali koji neseser nosim odlučila sam se za Too faced neseser koji sam dobila u setu Everything nice.

Sada da uvedemo nesto novo! Zelela sam da vam pokazem i sta jos od kozmetike nosim na put (i ako se pitate gde su stvari za negu lica, trenutno koristim tonik i sredstvo za isusivanje bubuljica koje je mi je preporucio dermatolog i zato ih nisam prikazala).
I moze se reci da obozavam Nivea proizvode za telo pogotovo njihove mirise.

To je to za danas, nadam se da vam se dopao ovaj post i recite mi kakvu vrstu posta biste zeleli da vidite iz Beca?

Bloggers favorites; Are they that good?/ Favoriti blogera; da li su toliko dobri?

Hi guys so I am back with something different. We all know that some products are adored in communties of beauty bloggers and youtubers and they are being called holy grail products but are they really worth all the fuss? I am part of this community and if everyone from sudden start swearing by some products you can be sure that I will put my hands on them, but are they that much different? We will see.

They’re real mascara by Benefit – When it comes to mascara we all have different expectations natural lashes, dramatic volume, skyscraper lenght but everyone seems to agree that this mascara is fabulous. To be complitely honest, at first it seemed like every other mascara but now... I love it! I think that the brush is what makes this mascara a star. It has small plastic bristles that separate lashes so good and give a tone of volume. I will risk to say that I love it that much that one time I ran out of mascara I kept the brush so I can use it to separate lashes while using other stuff.
Color tattoo eyeshadows by Maybelline – These bad boys have been a huge deal on internet for so long and Maybelline keeps realising new limited edition shades. And it is no surprise that Bad to the bronze is shade that everyone talks about cause it is the only neautral color in original collection. I can understand why people love them so much. They are super long lasting, pigmented, easy to apply, inexpensive and can be used on their own or as a base. What more we can ask for?
Fit me concelear by Maybelline -  Famose dupe for Nars Cream concelear. I will admit I was head over heels for this concelear before I discovered Pro longwear one. I mostly used this one for covering blemishes and it did pretty decent job but, I can never wear it without foundation cause after an hour or two I end up with huge circles on areas I use it. Otherwise with foundation and powder works really well
Baby lips by Maybelline – I think that there is no girl that haven’t tried one of these and I went for Pink punch (this is as basic as it gets). First just to state that I am not lip balm person and they always feel weird and sticky on my lips and this one was no exception. And I will admit that color was not a happiest choice since it is real Barbie pink.
Stay matte by Rimmel – Just remember that next impression comes from someone that has extremly oily skin. This is probably my most repurchesed product cause it keeps skin matte so long and makes foundation last longer. 
Essie nail polishes – I always get frustrated when I paint my nails and the second I get in shower they are all chipped. The most nail polish lasted me is 1 and a half day so Essie nail polishes  were a great discovery for me. So pigmented you need one coat or maximum two, dry in couple minutes and lasted around 3 days without chipping which is great for me.How do you guys feel about these products and what do you think are they really worth the hype?

Dragi moji evo vracam se sa necim zanimljivim i malo drugacijim od uobicajenih postova. Svi mi znamo da blogeri i youtube-ri imaju svoje favorite i proizvode u koje se kunu, ali da li su ti proizvodi bas vredni cele te prasine koja se dize oko njih? Mene je prilicno lako ubediti u nesto i ako cujem da ceo internet pocne da bruji oko nekog novog proizvoda budite sigurni da cu ga probati ali ono sto me kopka je to po cemu se ti proizvodi razlikuju od drugih?

Benefit They’re real maskara – Kada su u pitanju maskare svi imamo razlicita ocekivanja (prirodan izgled, dramaticni volumen, izrazena duzina) ali oko jedne stvari su se svi slozili; a to je da je ova maskara odlicna. Da budem potpuno iskrena u pocetku nisam bila odusevljena i ovo je za mene bila maskara kao i svaka druga ali sada... Obozavam je. Mislim da je cetkica ono sto cini ovu maskaru posebnom. Plasticna je i ima sitne cesljice tako da odlicno odvaja trepavice i daje super volumen. Rizikovacu da kazem da sam jednom posto sam potrosila maskaru zadrzala cetkicu i koristila je kao mali  cesalj za trepavice sa drugim maskarama. To sasvim dovoljno govori
Maybelline Color tattoo senke – Ove senke su velika stvar u beauty svetu vec duze vremena. I nije iznenadjenje da je On and on bronze omiljena nijansa blogerki buduci da je to jedina neutralna nijansa u kolekciji koja je kod nas dostupna. Skroz razumem zasto ih svi obozavaju. Dugo traju, dobro su pigmentovane, lako se nanose, nisu skupe, mogu da se koriste kao baza ili kremaste senke. Sta vise da trazimo?
Maybelline Fit me korektor – Priznacu da sam bila luda za ovim korektorom dok nisam otkrila Pro longwear i koristila sam ga za prekrivanje bubuljica i podocnjaka. Tu se dobro pokazao ali ne mogu da ga koristim bez tecnog pudera ispod zato sto posle nekoliko sati zavrsim sa krugovima od korektora ali kada ga kombinujem sa tecnim puderom i kompaktnim onda dobro funkcionise.
Baby lips – Bez imalo blama cu da priznam da kada sam saznala da su stigli kod nas obisla sam preko 5 Lilly drogerija da ih pronadjem. I odusevljenju nije bilo kraja dok ih nisam probala. Mozda sam imala prevelika ocekivanja zbog svih koji su brujali o njima ali sve u svemu nisam bila odusvljena (mozda zato sto generalno nisam ljubitelj labela) a i nijansa nije bila najsrecniji izbor- Pink punch – posto je prava Barbie roze.
Rimmel Stay matte kameni puder – Samo da se podsetimo da su ovo utisci devojke koja ima dosta masnu kozu. Ovo je jedini kameni puder koji koristim od kako sam ga probala. Lice mi bude matirano dosta dugo i mislim da produzava trajanje tecnog pudera, a te dve stvari su meni najbitnije.
Essie lakovi – Nikada nisam pridavala posebnu paznju lakovima za nokte zato kada god su mi nokti nalakirani to traje do sledeceg tusiranja dan i po maksimum tako da nisam ocekivala da kod Essie lakova bude drasticna razlika. Priznacu da mi ne traju po nedelju dana ali 3 dana budu savrseni bez krzanja. Pigmentovani su tako da je i jedan sloj dovoljan, dva maksimum, dosta se brzo suse i imaju odlican izbor boja.

Da li ste probali neki od ovih proizvoda i sta mislite koji proizvodi nisu vredni tolike pompe koja nastaje?

Mini haul!

We havent been hauling a lot this year right guys? I have just realized that my last haul was in November, wait what?! Here is a little comeback.


To switch it up starting with hair stuff. I have been waiting forever to try out Batiste dry shampoo and to see what all fuss is about. I haven't tried it out yet but this scent-Floral&flirty blush- is just the best.

And my hair was getting all damaged from curling it, and I am not sure that I will give up my curls so I picked up Balea heat protective spray.
Now let's talk make up. L'oreal is on point in this haul. I have read really nice reviews about their Gel inteza eyeliner that I just couldn't resist trying it out. 



Next is their False lash wings mascara with fabulous metalic packaging and super wierd brush so I will tell you how I handled it. 






And since I am all about sparkles I bought their Glam shine lipgloss in shade Clear crystal 101.I can already tell that this shade is super glittery so it will be love it or hate it product.
I haven't found good black longwearing eyeliner that I can use in waterline so I picked up one from Rimmel.
And lastly for makeup I picked up this Aura blush and it is a great springy coraly shade.
Finishing it up with cleansing wipes. I choose ones from Bioten and they smell like peaches, so delicous.
Hope you liked this mini haul and I am back on track so expect some more.

Mislim da se ove godine nisam bas pokazala sto se tice new in postova i upravo sam shvatila da je moj poslednji new in post bio u novembru. Da pokusam da nadoknadim sad. Evo vracam se da jednim malim Dm new in-om.

Da malo promenimo redosled, pocinjemo sa proizvodima za kosu. Dugo sam cekala da probam Batiste sampone za suvo pranje koji su toliko nahvaljeni u svetu blogera i vidim po cemu su toliko posebni. Jos uvek nemam prve utiske ali me je ovaj sladak i cvetni miris (kao sto ime kaze Floral&flirty blush) ocarao i tako da ako me izneveri kao sampon za suvo pranje koristicu ga kao osvezvac za prostorije.
I posto sam malo mucila kosu proteklih nedelja a nisam bas sigurna da cu odustati od koriscenja pegle i figara kupila sam Balea sprej za zastitu od toplote sto je cini mi se nesto relativno novo kod nas.
I  sada da pricamo o mom omiljenom delu. Dekorativa. U Dm-u u trznom centru Usce do 19.04. traje snizenje na L'oreal proizvode -35% sto je odlicna ponuda tako da nisam mogla da odolim da se ne pocastim.
Cula sam da je dosta blogerki pricalo o Gel intenza ajlajneru i htela sam da probam gel ajlajner vec duze vreme.
Sledeca je False lash wings maskara u prelepom metalik pakovanju i jednom od najcudnijih cetkica koju sam videla, u svakom slucaju javljam kako sam se snasla sa njom.


I posto obozavam sljokice kupila sam Glam shine sjaj u nijansi Clear crystal 101. Vec mogu da kazem da ova nijansa ima mnogo sitnih sljokica tako da mislim da cete je ili voleti ili mrzeti.
Do sada nisam naltela na dobar crni ajlajner koji mogu da koristim u vodenoj liniji tako da cu da isprobam Rimmel-ov.
I da zavrsimo sa sminkom kupila sam Aura rumenilo u nijansi Cotton candy. Nijansa je prelepa, izmedju roze i koralne ali jos nisam sigurna koliko sam zadovoljna pigmentacijom.
Za kraj Bioten vlazne maramice koje cu verovatno koristiti za skidanje sminke sa mirisom breskve.
Nadam se da vam se dopao ovaj mini new in i ocekujte ih jos.
