Trend It Up | DM


Hello lovelies. Today I want to talk about a new drugstore brand called Trend It Up and can be found in DM drugstores. It is a german store so I think you can only get it in Europe. I was inspired to do something like this because I recently received a little package that consisted of a liquid lipstick and a nailpolish from this brand. Trend It Up came to Slovenia in September so it's a relatively new thing. So because I got these two products I decided I want to go to the store and get myself 3 new products and write a review about it because it is a very afordable brand that I think everyone should check it out.
In total I have 4 different products to share with you: Double Volume & Shine Nailpolish (270), High Shine Lipgloss (140), 2 Ultra Matte Lipcreams ( 080, 085) and an eyeshadow palette called The Colors Selection (020). I will start with an eyeshadow palette because it just looks amazing.

Zdravo punce. Danes sem se odločila, da vam bom predstavila novo znamko, ki jo lahko najdeš v DM drogeriji. Znamka je v Slovenijo prišla septembra, tako da je dokaj nova zadeva. Tole objavo pišem, ker sem pred kratkim dobila 2 njihova izdelka na Beauty  Bloggers Meet Up, in sicer en lep lak in pa tekočo šminko. Odločila sem se, da grem kupiti še kakšen izdelek in na koncu sem prišla domov s 3 novimi izdelki iste znamke. Tale znamka je res poceni in zaradi tega se mi zdi, da bi si jo morala ogledati vsaka punca, ki jo zanima nekaj novega.
Torej vse skupaj imam 4 različne izdelke, ki jih bom danes delila z vami, in sicer: Double Volume & Shine lak (270), High Shine Lipgloss (140), dve Ultra Matte Lipcreams (080, 085) in pa paleta za oči,, ki se imenuje The Colors Selection (020). Začnimo kar s paletko, ker je res prečudovita.


The palette consists of 6 shades which are more purply and dark. It's a combination of mattes and shimmers so I think it's perfect for both day and night looks. I really like the purple shades for autumn and winter and that is why I chose this palette. There are 3 different palettes in total. It comes with a small two-sided brush so you can use it for travelling. I swatched the shades on the back of my hand and I was really impressed with pigmentation. It si really good. The shades are easy to blend but are a bit more powdery so you will definitely want to tap away the excess product. The range of colours is great because you have shades for the crease, for the whole eyelid and for the inner eye corner. It's just great. I also really like the size of it because you can take it anywhere with you. I can see myself using this palette a lot in winter (and Maja's also liking it hihi).

V paletki imamo vse skupaj 6 senčk, ki so bolj vijolične in temne in so mat in bleščeče, tako da lahko definitivno ustvariš večerni in dnevni look. Vijolični odtenki so mi res super za jesen in zimo in zato sem jo tudi izbrala, na sploh pa lahko izbiraš med 3 različnimi paletami. Zdi se mi super za potovanja saj zraven dobiš tudi dvostranski čopič in pa, ker je majhne velikosti. Pigmentacijo senčk sem stestirala kar na roki in moram priznati, da sem bila res navdušena. Barve so res močne je pa res, da ko nanašaš senčke na veke moraš čopič otresti, ker dobiš kar precej produkta na čopič. Zelo lepo se razmaže in med seboj se barve super dopolnjujejo. Všeč mi je, da so notri od temnih barv do svetlih barv. Paletko res priporočam vsem, ker ima res vse tisto kar rabiš in ni ti potrebno zapraviti ne vem koliko denarja zanjo (še moja sestra je nad njo čisto navdušena hihi).


Moving on with the lipgloss and lipcreams. Lipgloss didn't impress me very much. I mean it is great and it apllies nicely but it's nothing special. It's not very pigmented so you can wear it every day and it's not very sticky so that is a big plus. As for the lipcreams I do have some pros & cons. First of all the shades are amazing. You have a big selection of lipcreams and I love all of them. I have a deep red shade(080) and a stunning plumb shade (085). The pigmentation is stunning and the application is great although I would definitely recommend using a lip pencil with it because you'll apply it 100 times easier-I had some struggles with the red one when I was applying it because I couldn't be as precise as I wanted to be. It would be easier if I applied the lip pencil first. Also when you apply it, it won't dry completely which for me is good because you won't be left there with dry lips and your lips will look more healthy. All in all they're great but I do have one negative thing to say and that is they transfer and because they transfer the aren't as longlasting as I would want them to be and you have to re-apply it. That is everything I have to say about the lipcreams. They're amazing and I will definitely keep using them because I like the texture of it and they are so affordable.


Naslednji produkt sta lipglos in tekoča šminka. Lipglos me ni nekaj navdušil, ampak tudi ni slab. V sebi ima nekaj pigmentacije, ampak nič pretiranega, tako da ga lahko nosiš vsak dan. Tudi ni lepljiv, tako da te ne moti ko je na ustnicah. Glede tekoče šminke pa imam nekaj besed več. Že takoj lahko povem, da sem nad njimi navdušena. Odtenki so res izjemni. Jaz imam dva in sicer rdeča (080) in pa odtenek slive oziroma malo bolj svetla. Pigmentacija je na vrhuncu punce. Zelo bi priporočala, da jih uporabite s svinčnikom za ustnice, ker bo s tem nanos veliko lažji. Jaz ga nisem uporabila in sem pri rdeči šminki naredila manjši nered na ustnicah (upss). Ko šminko naneseš se ta ne posuši v celoti, kar je dobro saj se ti ustnice potem ne izsušijo in zgledajo bolj zdravo. Edina stvar, ki me moti pa je da pušča odtis. Sicer me to res ne moti, ampak zaradi tega sem morala šminko nekajkrat na novo nanesti. Priznam, da me to sploh ni zmotilo, tako da sem z njimi navdušena. Definitivno priporočam njihove mat šminke, ker so res dobre + poceni so – popolna kombinacija.


The last product I will talk about it is their nailpolish. Again they have a big selection of colours so you'll definitely find something for yourself. I got this dark purple-ish colour and it's perfect for autumn. I was really impressed by it. You only have to apply one coat of it and it's done. You don't have to use 2 coats and that is something I'm super excited about. I didn't use the base coat or a top coat and it's holding out just fine. I did just wash the dishes and I can see that it chipped a little at the end which is to be expected actually, but if you use the top coat I think you'll be fine. All in all it is a nice nailpolish and the best thing about it is that you don't have to use 2 coats.

Zadnji izdelek pa je tale lak. Izbira lakov je res velika, tako da sem prepričana, da se za vsako nekaj najde. Moj je zopet bolj temen, bordo rdeč. Ko sem ga nanesla, sem takoj videla, da bom rabila samo 1 nanos, ker je tako zelo prekriven. Sploh ne rabiš 2 sloja. Definitivno je to največji plus pri tem laku. Pri nanosu nisem uporabila niti podlak niti nadlak. Malo prej sem pomila posodo in se na koncih malo vidi, da se je odluščil, ampak ne veliko. Prepričana sem, da do tega ni bi prišlo, če bi uporabila še nadlak. Lak je super ampak najbolj me je navdušila njegova prekrivnost jeeeej.

Trend It Up is a brand I will keep checking out because it made a good impression on me and I can't wait to go back and maybe get some face makeup- foundation, blush etc. Let me know if you know this brand and what you think of it. Have a great day.

Trend it up je definitivno znamka, ki jo bom še spremljala. Zelo me zanimajo še ličila za obraz-puder, rdečilo,... Je kdo že preizkusil njihove izdelke? Kaj si mislite o njih? Do naslednjič. Čauu

PRECIOUS METALS HIGHLIGHTING PALETTE


Hello  lovelies,

today I want to take about a thing that I've been obsessed with for the last month. I received this amazing highlight palette in my mail a couple of months ago and it is Sleek Precious Metals Highlighting Palette.

When I first got this product, I was a bit clueless about it. I mean I know what a highlighter is, but I've never owned one and I also never used it- EVER. So receiving this product was a perfect thing. It comes in four shades and they are of creamy consistency I am literally obsessed with highlighters. I cannot believe I lived without them for so long. It makes my check bones AMAZING and my skin in general really glowy. I cannot stop praising this palette. I really like the creamy consistency. I recently used a highlighter in a powder and I was not impressed by it. I think you have to put a lot of product on your face to get the desired effect but if it's creamy - little goes a long way. Maybe this is just the case when it comes to my skin, but I really think creamy highlighters are so much easier to apply and much more intensive. I apply my highlighter with my middle finger just above my blush. I  also like to put it on my cupid's bow because it makes my whole face look fresh. I use the lightest one in the palette because I my skin is VERY pale and this one's the only one that suits my skin tone. The finish is metalic so it has a sheen to it. It's not a matte finish which I prefer to be honest.

This palette has a really good staying power and is in overall a good product. I would really like to say that if you're going to buy it, use it carefully because if not, you'll end up looking like a glow stick. I can easily say that highlighters have become my favourite makeup product and I'm always excited when I apply it. It really makes a huge difference to a whole makeup look you're wearing. If you don't use it - consider getting it. Unless you have a naturally glowing skin, then I envy you ;)

For all my Slovenian readers you can get this product here: http://bit.ly/1oOJ00p
And for everyone else, I found it on the Sleek's official site: http://bit.ly/1QpQ61p

Let me know if you like highlighters like I do ( I'm obsessed with them but okay...) and what is your favourite one. Have a lovely day.

BEAUTY


Hello everybody!

Today I have something beauty related for you. I've never done this kind of post as I am not that obsessed with make-up. That's also not good because that means that I am not very good with putting all products on my face. So I decided to work on this because it became an important part in our lives and well I don't want to be left behind. I am not saying that make-up is priority or anything. That only applies to those who love playing with it and I was always fascinated by those who have make-up on so nicely and are so good with it. I will have to practice that and see if it's something I can learn.
I have three products to show you today: Lipstick, Eyeliner and Concealer.

Lipstick is by a brand called Misslyn. It is a dark red purple-ish colour and is in the shade 119. It's called Love Temper. The reason why I went for this colour is the fact that it's winter time and I think darker shades are more appropriate for this time of the year.



Eyeliner... It's by Essence and it says it's extra longlasting. Well that is something that was bought on impulse. I want so badly to learn how to make a little flick at the end of the eye and basically to learn how to use it. Everyone is using it and their eyes look so nice and mysterious. Wish me good luck with it. I am sure I'll have a lot of struggle with it.



Concealer is by a brand called Maybelline and is a product that I purchased for the second time. I really like it and it conceales all the spots that I have and it's great for under eye area. Mine is in the shade 02- Natural. I think it's a perfect product and it is kind of liquid. It's not in the stick as these kind of concealers really dry up my skin and I don't like using it. So if you're looking something more liquid base then this is for you. The only downfall is that in our country there are only 2 shades available. I'm sure elsewhere there're more varities. 


Let me know if you have some lipsticks that you love wearing in this time of the year. Have a lovely day.
