Ajda's Makeup Collection - Part 1

Hello lovelies!

I love watching makeup collection videos on Youtube and on blogs, i love to see what other people have and making list of products i need in my life :D

So i decided i will show you my collection, in my oppinion is really small, but you'll see.

These posts will be picture heavy, i won't descibe any of the products, i will just put names of products under the picture. So if you would like to see some products in deepth just let me know. 

 So this is where i store my makeup. The bigger plastick drawers are over 10 years old so i don't remember where we got them, the smaller ones are from Kik, big paper ones are from Hofer and the basket on top of tham and my brush holder are from Kalia.

REVIEW: Catrice All Matt Plus Shine Control

Hello lovelies :)

Today I have for you another review. This time I am reviewing a foundation that was recommended to me by Ajda. Hope you will enjoy the post :)

This foundation is supposed to be good for oily skin, since it claims that it is mattifying, longlasting and oil free. I must say it is quite mattifying, aldough I can still see a hint of shine when I apply the foundation, it still gives me a nice natural glow (this might be because my skin is naturally very very oily). It is really longlasting and has a nice medium to full covaridge, depending on how much you put on your face. It is buildable, however it can look cakey if you apply it too much. It also does not feel heavy on my skin, probably because it does not contain oil. 

It comes in a nice glass packaging with a black lid and a pump. (as you can see in the pictures, it can get messy quite quickly... I would like to say it is not my fault that the pump is all messy, but it probably is...)

It is quite thick so it might not be ideal for summer, but it is nice to wear in the winter. I got mine in shade 030 Warm Beige and it is quite dark, so I might buy a lighter shade for winter months, aldough i can still make this shade work.

I think this foundation is worth trying. It is quite cheap (under 7e) and some say it is almost the same as Revlon Colorstay (I do not own Revlon Colorstay so I do not know if this is true or not). The only downside I see is a limited shade selection.

Did you try this foundation? What do you think?

Have a nice day ;)

Best of beauty 2013 - Tjaša

Hello lovelies :)
Today I will present to you the make up products that I liked/used the most in 2013 :)

I hope you will all enjoy this post. 

Primer : essence i love stage eyeshadow base.
I am going to go with an eyeshadow primer here just because I do not use face primers. I like this one because it is a bit orange wich helps hide any wierdness on my eyelids and it is a bit more dry when it sets ( I tend to have very oily eye lids).

Foundation: essence all in one bb cream.
I usually use this product because it is not so heavy on my skin and I usualy do not go full covaridge. It has a nice texture 
and spf 30 witch is always a plus.

Concealer: essence stay all day long-lasting concealer.
Nice for under eye area since it does not cake up. Nicely coveres little imperfections, redness and under eye circles.

Bronzer: catrice cosmetics sun glow matt bronzing powder medium skin.
 I do not usualy contour but when I do this is my go to powder. It is matte and appeares nice and natural on my skin.

Blush: catrice defining blush in 020 Rose Royce.
Three reasons: It is the only blush I have (I do not use blush on the daily basis just because I do not feel that I need it), nice colour and awesome name.

Highlighter :
I do not use highliter on a daily basis and if I do want to highlit any areas i usualy use an eyeshadow that is a shade or two lighter than my skin tone. I do not have a favourite product in this department.

Brow product:
For bold brows I use maybelline color tattoo in 40-Permanent Taupe (it is a bit lighter than my actual brow colour… my brows are two black big caterpillars…). It has a really nice texture and i feel that it is easy to work with, really stays on even if I do not set it with powder and it fills my eye brows nicely

Eye Shadow Palette: mua undressed. 

 I was in a big dilema here, because I realy like Sleek Vintage Romance, but I feel that the Undressed pallete is much more versitile and suitable for night and day looks (Do not get me wrong, Vintage Romance is AH-mazing). Colours work nicely together and pigmentation is awesome for such a low price.

Eye Liner : Catrice made to stay inside eye highliter pen in 010 In The Mood For Nude.
 Nice peachy pink colour that really stays in the water line.  I really only use liners for my waterline, for  my upper lid I use eye shadow to line.

Mascara: MUA extreme curl mascara in black

While I did not feel I really got that explosive volume or curl when I used it, it made my lashes look nice with just one coat and it did not clump them together.

Lip Pencil : essence lip liner in 06 satin mauve
I have this little guy for quite some time now and it is my only lip pencil (again as with the blush, I do not feel I need it on the daily basis).

Lipstick: mua matte lipstick in wild berry.

 A very nice winter colour and berry colour in general. Smells nice, lasts a reasonable amount of time and does not dry my lips as much.

Lip Gloss : 

I do not really use lip gloss so I will cheat here and say Manhattan soft mat lipcream in 54L (i guess that is the name of the colour). Nice colour that dryes completly matte and lasts quite some time (smooch proof). The only downside is that it takes quite a bit of time to dry and it does make my lips really dry.

Beauty Subscription: 

well you see, I have quite a boring life so I do not have any beauty subscriptions (do emails from Ličila.si and MUA count? :P). I usualy play video games, read books, study… ain't nobody have time for beauty subsctibtions…

Tool :

BH cosmetics eyeliner brush and the fluffy blendy brush (sorry, i do not know the real names of those things if they even have a name). The fluffy blendy brush is really soft and blends eyeshadow really well and the eyeliner brush is really versitile (i use it for eye liner, filling in my brows, concealing under my brows or around my lips).

Have a nice day ;)
