CAUDALIE VinoSource - Moisturizing Mattifying Fluid :)

Hello! Summer is almost at an end and I have not talked about one of my favourite summer products yet! Skincare in summertime changes quite a bit for me, but this year I got to try out a brand new Caudalie skincare product  from the VinoSource collection - Moisturizing Mattifying Fluid. This has been such an amazing product for my skin this summer! Let me tell you why! :)

MAY Favourites!

Hello and welcome back to my blog! Time to take a look back and check out the goodies I have been loving in May! I have again a couple more products than up to 10, as I originally planned these posts to be.. but oh well, let's be honest, May was huge with all the new releases, especially with all the new products in Slovenian stores. If you have missed my previous post, check the April Favourites! Now lets see what got most of my attention in the past month!

NEW IN April :)

Hello! Another month gone by and I've been pretty good in April, I got some amazing stuff, treated myself with some more but for once I didn't go overboard! I did however try to test out a lot of product as much as I could and I hope May will be more productive regarding future posts and there should be quite a lot of them! Now lets see what I've been treating myself with this month!

First Impressions: CAUDALIE - VINOSOURCE Riche - Intense Moisture Rescue Cream

Hello!  Another skincare review for you! I have had this cream, VINOSOURCE Riche Intense Moisture Rescue Cream for very dry skin by CAUDALIE for a couple of months now and I finally got around to write my first impressions. Why first impressions after months of testing it? Because this cream is really not suitable for my skin type (oily to mixed skin type with acne problems) and would not work for me on a daily basis, so I had this like an S.O.S. product, when I felt like my skin was really dry or I had acne scars I wanted to heal faster or I just felt I need to give my skin a more rich and heavy formula to help it replenish overnight. So this cream wasn't used regularly and I can not say what effect it would have on my skin if I used it daily, but I can say how it worked for me on those single uses every once in a while.

Packaging, price - It comes in white plastic tube with red twist cap, easy to use, small packaging that doesn't take up much space, sleek and well, nothing special. It contains 40 ml of product that has 9 months of shelf life once opened. Anyway, I like the tube, as it's full size but still travel friendly. The price depends on where you buy it, FeelUnique offers this cream for 32,43 euros, Slovenian readers can get this cream at VivaDerm for 26,95 euros, or at Lekarnar.com for 26,96 euros.

What it promises - "This rich, hydrating cream provides must-have moisture protection to repair and cure dry, dehydrated skin.  Grape oil and Shea butter deeply nourish and soothe to restorethe hydrolipidic layer and stregthen the skin's moisture barrier, resulting in soft, comfortable skin."

Texture, application, scent - The texture is really lightweight, rich and creamy, but not too sticky or greasy. The base of this cream is made of glycerin, squalane and  cetearyl alcohol. This cream does have a gentle fragrance, which I really like, it may not be the best for sensitive skin, but on me this worked fine, no irritations. The texture is really moisturizing, it's a very soothing cream, but you need to be careful not to apply it too heavily as it may make you look greasy or also make you feel like you have a heavy layer on your skin.

Effect on my skin - As already mentioned, I haven't been using this cream regularly, as it's not really fit for my skin type. Still, I have been using this on occassions, as a part of my night time skin care routine. I applied a small drop all over my face as this really spreads well and you don't need much to get the effect of this cream. I loved the texture that was nourishing but not too heavy. Even though this is meant for a really dry skin I usually woke up without looking greasy or anything, but just with a soft nourished skin. For some time now I have been noticing my skin has changed and is showing signs of dehydration, and even though I know there are creams out there that perform better for oily skin types I still wanted to try this one. I'm glad I did, as I found my own miracle worker, that helps me overnight to achieve a better, healthier skin. It goes hand in hand with my beloved Vichy Idealia Skin Sleep night cream and serum, these three did miracles for my skin in the last year. They didn't help me get rid of my acne or help me control sebum and shine or anything like that, but they visibly helped me heal my skin faster, especially this VinoSource cream. This one is really good for rescuing your skin from all the bad - dehydration, redness, irritations, dry patches, damaged skin from scratching my acne. Before I always though only Argan oil by Omnia Botanica could help me with these troubles, but now I see this cream can do that as well and even faster! I will keep using this cream as a rescue S.O.S. treatment whenever I will feel like I need something more to nourish my skin. I don't know if this would suit me as a daily moisturizer, as I think it's a bit too nourishing and I usually don't need so much care, but this years transit to fall and winter seems to be a bit more rocky than I'm used to and I will keep this cream by my side through this season. My boyfriend also tested it and used a bit too much at first, so he commented that he feels this cream is too greasy, but now that he uses a small drop, he likes this one as well and also loves the gentle scent.

Ingredients - "INGREDIENTS : AQUA (WATER), GLYCERIN*, CAPRYLIC/CAPRICTRIGLYCERIDE*, SQUALANE*, CETEARYL ALCOHOL*, VITISVINIFERA (GRAPE) SEED OIL*, BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII (SHEA)BUTTER EXTRACT*, BUTYLENE GLYCOL, HYDROLYZED POTATOPROTEIN*, BORAGO OFFICINALIS SEED OIL*, HYDROGENATEDOLIVE OIL STEARYL ESTERS*, POTASSIUM CETYL PHOSPHATE,PANTHENOL, CETEARYL WHEAT STRAW GLYCOSIDES*, TREHALOSE, POLYMETHYL METHACRYLATE, CETEARYL GLUCOSIDE*, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE*, DIMETHICONE, CARBOMER, PARFUM (FRAGRANCE), CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, PALMITOYL GRAPE SEED EXTRACT*, POTASSIUM SORBATE,SODIUM HYDROXIDE, PENTYLENE GLYCOL, TRICAPRYLIN,TOCOPHEROL*, LINOLEIC ACID*, CASTANEA SATIVA (CHESTNUT) BARK / LEAF EXTRACT*, PISUM SATIVUM (PEA) EXTRACT*, CYCLODEXTRIN*, LINOLENIC ACID*, SODIUM CARBOXYMETHYL BETAGLUCAN, BHT, ACRYLATES/C10-30 ALKYL ACRYLATE CROSSPOLYMER, SODIUM HYALURONATE, HEXYL CINNAMAL, LINALOOL, LIMONENE, BENZYL BENZOATE, CITRONELLOL, GERANIOL, COUMARIN.

Have you tried any of the VinoSource creams? Do you like them, maybe recommend them? I am really happy I was able to try this as this is something I wouldn't probably choose for myself, I would probably go for a mattifying fluid, but I'm glad I got to try this one! It really helps me heal my skin faster and it feels very soft and nourished after use! Plus you only need a small drop so a tube of 40 ml will last you for quite some time!

Hope this post was helpful to you! If you liked it, I would love it if you could also share it!

Thanks for reading!

Prvi vtisi: Caudalie & DermEden :)

Pozdravljeni! Če ste morda spremljali moje zadnje objave, ste lahko v objavi Empties #11:) zasledili tudi te testerje :) Prejela sem  jih že kar nekaj časa nazaj in sicer par testerjev izdelkov Caudalie ter DermEden. Najprej niti nisem vedela ali bom pisala prav posebno objavo, potem pa sem se odločila, da naredim objavo z mojimi prvimi vtisi. :) 

Prvi tester, ki sem ga poskusila je bila Detox maska za razstrupljanje! Maska obljublja, da odstranjuje nečistoče in toksine, oža pore in obnavlja kožo. Tester sem porabila za en sam nanos, vendar mi je bila maska takoj zelo všeč! Ima zanimiv vonj, primerno gostoto in se lepo nanaša. Je opečnate barve, vendar ne pušča nobenih sledi na koži. Moja koža je bila po uporabi prijetno mehka, čista, nič pordela ali kaj podobnega, pore so bile čiste in predvsem na licih so delovale malenkost manjše. Prebrala sem tudi že veliko pozitivnih ocen drugih blogerk, tako da sem se testiranja te maske res veselila in sodeč po tem testerju, bi si jo tudi z veseljem privoščila (ko porabim poplavo mask za obraz doma). Vsebuje rožnato glino,  grozdne tropine in kavo. Polna velikost vsebuje 75ml, stane pa nekje malce več kot 23 evrov, odvisno kje kupite. Definitivno gre na seznam želja oziroma prihodnjih nakupov!

Drugi tester je bil Vinoperfect Radiance serum za korekcijo barve polti. Glede na to, da sem poskusila samo en tester, ki je vseboval 1ml izdelka, žal ne morem potrditi učinka izdelka, čeprav je bil serum čisto tekoč kot kak tonik in sem ga imela za dva nanosa. Ni imel nobenega specifičnega vonja, je prozorne barve in se nanaša zelo enostavno. Ni mi bilo všeč, da se izdelek ni tako lepo vpil v mojo kožo, ampak je pustil lepljiv občutek na koži in zjutraj sem se zbudila čisto mastna. Žal tole pač ni za moje potrebe in moj tip kože. Polna embalaža je sicer elegantna, steklenička s pipeto, ki vsebuje 30 ml, stane pa nekje okoli 50 evrov.

Poskusila sem tudi tester Vinoperfect tonirane vlažilne emulzije spf 20 za svetlo polt. Izdelek je precej podoben kakšni CC kremi, recimo L'Occitanovi po sami teksturi. Po odtenku je precej bolj temen od L'Occitanove CC kreme in bolj primeren za tople rumene podtone. Nanos je enostaven, kot katerakoli druga krema za obraz. Prekrivnost je lahka, krema pa deluje na koži zelo vlažilno. Mislim, da bo bolj primerna za tiste, ki nimate težav z mastno kožo ter nepravilnostmi. Sama sem se svetila že pol ure po nanosu, čeprav sem nanesla tudi matirajoči puder v kamnu. Občutek na koži je lahek, prijeten. Primerno bolj za poletne, tople mesece in seveda malce bolj ustrezen tip kože, torej ne ravno za mastnokožke. Bonus je seveda spf 20 :)

Prejela in poskusila sem tudi dva testerja izdelkov za telo in oba sta me zelo navdušila! Najprej sem poskusila Divine Legs obarvani losjon za telo. tester je vseboval 5 ml, kar je v bistvu zadostovalo za enkratno uporabo po dolžini obeh nog. Gre za samoporjavitveni instant losjon za telo, ki kožo takoj ovije v lep ten, brez strahu, da bi na koži ostale vidne lise, spere pa se takoj, ko greste naslednjič pod tuš! Všeč mi je bil prijeten vonj izdelka, sama tekstura, ker dejansko ni losjon ampak bolj kompaktna krema, ki jo segrejete med prsti in vtrete v kožo. Če lepo in počasi vmasirate kremo v kožo, ne bo puščala nobenih sledov in lis. Zdi se mi super ideja za takrat, ko želite na hitro malce porjaveti, pa nimate časa za izdelke, ki vam puščajo dolgotrajnejšo obarvanost, saj je tiste ponavadi potrebno nanašati večkrat zapored. Pri nanosu bodite pozorni, da  izdelek ne pride v stik z tkaninami, saj se ga ne da sprati ven. Sicer nisem slikala odtenka nog, ampak so bile kar konkretno rjave! Že nekaj časa sem si ogledovala izdelek na feelunique.com, tako, da ga bom imela v mislih za naslednje poletje, oziroma ko bo spet sezona za krila in obleke. Polna velikost je pakirana v stekleničko s pumpico, ki vsebuje 100 ml, stane pa okoli 25 evrov.

Drugi tester za telo je bilo Divine olje za lase, obraz in telo. Tester je vseboval 3 ml izdelka, ki sem ga porabila v dveh večerih, nanesla pa sem ga na noge. Olje se mi zdi na prvi pogled super, vonj je nežen in zelo prijeten. Olje je ravno prav tekoče in ne preveč mastno. Koža je olje lepo in hitro posrkala, ampak ni ostala mastna ali lepljiva. Vseeno sem morala malce počakati, da se je olje vpilo, ampak ne več kot morda 5 minut. Olje bi lahko uporabila tzdu za lase ali obraz, ampak se mi osebno zdi res najbolj primerno za telo. Olje ne vsebuje parabenov, fenoksietanola, ftalatov ali mineralnih olj. Polna velikost izdelka je pakirana v lično stekleničko z rjavim pokrovčkom. Vsebuje 100 ml, cena pa je približno 30 evrov. Tudi o olju sem prebrala že veliko pohval in ga bom uvrstila na seznam želja ozirma potencialnih nakupov v prihodnosti. Poleg tega se mi zdi super ideja za božično darilo, ker lepo neguje kožo in je idealen za zimsko sezono.

Ter še dva izdelka DermEden. Poskusila sem DermEden intenzivno nočno anti age kremo za obraz. Krema vsebuje kombinacijo treh  hidroksi kislin, primerna je za normalno in mešano kožo.  Krema ni ravno za moj tip kože, vendar sem jo vseeno poskusila. Krema je precej hranljiva in se mi ne zdi primerna za mastnokožke. Je sicer lepo mazljiva krema z nežnim, popolnoma nevsiljivim vonjem. Za anti age učinek po eni uporabi ne morem reči, vendar je krema res zelo negovalna in lepo navlaži, žal res ni za tiste z mastnim tipom kože. Moja koža je bila po nanosu čisto mastna in tudi zjutraj, ko sme se zbudila, sem bila čisto svetleča. Polna velikost izdelka je lonček s pokrovom na navoj, ki vsebuje 50 ml kreme, ki stane okoli 35 evrov.

Drugi DermEden izdelek, ki sem ga poskusila je Univerzalna DD krema spf 25. Gre za dnevno zaščitno kremo z faktorjem spf 25 in vitaminu D podobno spojino. Prejela sem dva testerja,  tako da sem izdelek imela za večkratno testiranje. Krema je lahka, vlažilna,tekstura me spominja bolj na kak losjon. Ko iztisnete kremo ven izgleda bela z majhnimi pikicami, podobno kot L'Orealova ali L'Occitanove CC krema. Ker gre za univerzalno kremo je odtenek univerzalen in se sam prilagodi vašemu tenu kože. Sama s takim tipom izdelkov nimam sreče, ponavadi reagirajo na mojo kožo in jo preveč potemnijo in to se mi je zgodilo tudi tukaj. Bila sem čisto preveč rjava v obraz po nanosu kreme, tako da sem jo kombinirala z mojim običajnim pudrom in prekrila pretemne dele obraza. Krema je vlažilna, kar je samo po sebi super, ampak ni ravno primerna za tiste, ki imate probleme z mastno kožo, tako kot jaz. Po kremi sem se takoj svetila, čeprav sem povrhu nanesla puder v kamnu. Potem sem jo raje porabila kot vlažilno podlago za moj običajni puder. Bolj primerna bo za tiste, ki imate bolj suh tip kože. Polna velikost izdelka je plastična tubica, ki vsebuje 50 ml izdelka, cena pa je približno 30 evrov.

Upam, da so vam bile kratke ocene in moji prvi vtisi o izdelkih v pomoč! Poskušala sem biti čim natančna pri opisih. Najbolj sta me navdušila oba izdelka za telo, Divine legs in Divine olje ter Detox maska za obraz! Pa tudi druge maske za obraz mi delujejo zanimive, sploh tale Glikolna eksfolirajoča piling maska! Če še niste videli ostalih ocen izdelkov znamke Caudalie, ki so me res navdušili, si lahko preberete še o Beauty Eliksirju, Caudalie kremi za roke in nohte ter Polyphenol kremi za okoli oči!

V kolikor vam je bila objava všeč, jo lahko delite naprej :) Najlepša hvala za pozornost!

Empties #11 :)

Hello! Have you missed my empty products posts? Haven't posted in a while, my last empties post was at the beginning of August, so here's about three months of empties. I did try to use up a lot of different products, so here's the bunch! 

From Dvorec Trebnik I have used up three products!  About Sea-buckthorn collection I have already posted on my blog, I actually did two separate posts and you can read them here (sorry, only in Slovene) - Dvorec Trebnik part 1 and part 2. I will try not to repeat myself, so I am just gonna say, this collection is pretty amazing and if you have a chance to try something really go for it! I gave some of the products to my mum, as she really likes their products and wanted to tyr this line as well. So you won't be seeing shower oil, massage oil and hand gel in my empties as I gave them to her and she also seemed to be really loving these! I have yet to finish the body milk from the collection but I admit I am saving it up a bit. The third product I have not posted about yet, but I promise you it will be properly reviewed this month! It's a new shower gel called Juicy orange from their new collection dt. I really loved the fresh scent of this shower gel, it didn't dry up my skin and it also made my whole bathroom smell juicy! More in the upcoming review of dt products!

A bunch of Balea shower gels! I have used up Balea Dusch-Bodymilk Vanille as base for shaving my legs, not so much as a shower lotion, as I felt it was too greasy on my skin and didn't leave me with a fresh feeling. I like to feel my skin completely fresh and without any greasy residue after shower and I felt like this left some traces of the product on my skin. I know it's supposed to as it's supposed to nourish your skin while you shower, buy I guess my skin is not dry enough to need so much nourishment. Anyway, this works great for me as a shaving cream and I will probably be repurchasing. The other three shower gels didn't impress me much. They are just standard Balea shower gels that have a nice scent and do their job. I liked the least After Sun Dusche, so I ended up using it as a hand wash. I did however like the scents of  Hibiskus&Nektarine as it was really juicy and fresh and also the scent of Vanille&Cocos as it was more milky, sweet and more on the vanilla side than coconut, still Loved to use it up! I don't think I will be repurchasing though, I liked them, but just not that much.

And some more shower gels! Yes, I use them up quite fast and I do use a lot of them, but considering I have more than one shower gel open at once I can finish a couple more in almost three months time, especially as some were open and waiting to be used up for a long time. One of my favourite shower gels of all time was this shower foam from Adria Spa and it smelled divine! It's perfect for all lavander lovers! I have posted a full review for this one here :) From Palmolive I had one of their latest arrivals - So Vibrant Pearly shower gel with essential oil (ginger and hibiscus). Loved the fresh scent, felt good on ym skin and in general I have been really satisfied with this one, so I might think about repurchasing it! From Nivea I have finished two products, one is shower gel Frangipani&Oil and the other is Creme Peeling. Loved both products, the scents of these two were amazing and I would repurchase both! Especially the Creme Peeling as it's really creamy, has some fine peeling parts in it, is very gentle and effective at the same time and makse my skin really soft and leavse some gentle scent!

Finished up another Nivea product, an  Nivea Soft moisturizing universal cream I actually used as a hand cream. Really loved the gentle scent and it is already on my list for repurchase! The other product is by L'Occitane and it's from the Jasmin & Bergamote collection and I really loved this body milk! I would repurchase full size any time, if I could. My stash of body lotions is simply too big. It's got  a very light texture, sinks into the skin fast and really does the job as it should, I loved it! I have also posted a full review for this product and you can read it here :)

Nivea has become one of my favourite brands, by the looks of this empties post :P I did really love this 3 in 1 Micellar Cleansing Water. It worked so much better than any other I have had so far! I have never posted about it on my blog, but from all the micellar waters I have tried this one is by far my favourite. It's gentle and very effective, one swipe really removes almost everything (only a face brush does it better), never needed much of the product to remove a full face of makeup. Also my skin never had any bad reactions to it, it always worked really well for me. Also it's not too expensive and I will be repurchasing very soon! The second product I have used up is by Noemie Cosmetics and it's Purifying Toning Lotion. I really loved that it was so gentle to my skin! I am thinking of repurchasing it, as it has grown on me and my skin liked this one a lot. I have posted about this toner here :)

And a mix of empties, two of the products have been ampy since mid August, but I have not posted my empties until now. I have been using Garnier Ambre Solaire Ideal Bronze spf 30  and  Garnier Ambre Solaire Sensitive advanced spf 50 during my summer holidays. I must say I did like the Ideal bronze lotion, it provided me with a lovely colour and protection. But I disliked the face cream as it caused me a brekout. Still it provided me with enough protection and didn't feel greasy. Next year though I will only repurchase Ideal bronze lotion. Also used up another deodorant, this time by Dove, it's their go fresh anti-perspirant and it the scent was perfect for summer, but I used it up quickly as I needed to reapply a lot. Now I am using Borotalco and I have been using one deodoarnt for over two months now! I am so impressed by it, only need to apply it once a day, it does it's job amazingly well! And the last empty here is a standard repurchase for me, I have been repurchasing this one like for ever, since it has been released when I was still in highschool! Basically, almost for 10 years! Veet In shower Hair Removal Cream is one fo the products I seem to repurchase every time as they have simply not come up with anything better and more effective to use under shower.

Some products for face I have finished include  Garnier Hautklar Wasabi Clean peeling, AlpStories Cleansing Gel Sage & Mint and Inell Lait Demaquillant makeup remover.  I had this Garnier peeling for some months and it did the job well, also loved the freshness of it! Would repurchase but already have a stash of products at home. Anyway, for anyone who likes products with a fresh scent and feel on the skin after use, this might be good for you! The particles are not too small or too big and just the right density, this was gentle enough and also did the job well at the same time. I have a whole post for the AlpStories cleansing gel and I must admit this has become one of my favourite cleansing gels of all time! You can read the full review here :) If you have a chance to try it out I really recommend it! Also used up another bottle of makeup remover from Inell, I think I will keep repurchasing this one as well, as it's really affordable and does the job well!

Have finished some of the lip balms as well! I had this one by Maybelline Baby lips Peach Kiss for a long time and it didn't really do anything for my lips, so I will not be repurchasing. It did add a bit of colour but the colour liked to crease on my lips and stick to my dry patches. Anyway, not something I liked or want to repurchase. The second lip balm is by Lip Smacker and it's Kiwi. I liked this one, it was fresh, and sweet and fruity. Did perform well on my lips, but is not very good at nourishing. My lips need some more care than this, so I won't be repurchasing. Maybe in summer time, but not right now. The third lip balm I used up is by Oriflame and it's theirs The ONE BB lip balm and I loved this one! The packaging, the scent, the texture, the light colour and shimmer this gives. It's also good at nourishing your lips, personally I really liked this one and I would repurchase! Finished one of my powders - finally done with Catrice Colour Correcting Mattifying powder in shade 010 Delicate Blossom. I liked it but it could do better. On my face this just didn't last that long and I was shiny too fast for my liking. I will not be repurchasing, but if you are interested you can read a full review here. The last product I have finished that you can see here is L'Occitane Pivoine Sublime CC cream in Light, one of my favourite products of this summer, if not the top favourite product! Really recommend you this one and love almost everything about it - you can read full review here! Repurchase - totally yes, but maybe next summer, as it's a very light product with light coverage.

Some empty Caudalie and DermEden testers. I will not talk much about these as I will post a short review of my impressions soon. From Caudalie I have tried  and loved Instant Detox mask, really effective, has a nice scent and I would love to try a full sized product. Also loved the Divine Oil, smells as the name suggests - divine! Also impressed by Divine legs tinted body balm, have never tried something like this before - gives quite a strong colour! Maybe I will buy it for next spring/summer season :) From DermEden I have tried D-day Protocole daily defense universal cream and Night protocole Intense anti-aging face cream. Both products were very promising, but will tell you more in a separate post!

And some late arrivals - products I have just finished up or I have forgtotten to take a picture! I have here two shower packs by WorldNaturelle, full review here :) I loved both of these and I really recommend you to try them sometime! Also finished up some testers of a new foundation - Deborah Milano  Dress Me Perfect 01 Fair. Loved the texture, application, coverage is quite strong, shade suits me really well, staying power is good! More or less I am very impressed by this foundation, but I will not be purchasing it just yet as I would like to wait and use up all the new foundations I have bought in September. Another tester I have used up is by Bottega  Verde, it's their Riso Venere hydrating face cream with Venere black Rice extract and Rice bran oil. Loved the scent and texture of this cream even though it's not really meant for my skin type. Felt very luxurious, but I have no idea how it would have turned out on the long run. Another toner I have just used up is by Natura Siberica  Cleansing tonic, it's actually a repurchase, my second bottle. Loved that it's so gentle, but I want to try something new now, so I won't be repurchasing just yet. And last two products I have used up are both one of my all time favourites - Caudalie Hand and Nail cream, you can find full review here, and L'Occitane Cleansing oil - full review here :) Loved  both products and would love to repurchase as soon as possible! Also I think both of these are pretty amazing to give as Christmas gifts!

So these were my empties! Have you tried any of these products? How did they work for you? :)

Review: Caudalie - Polyphenol C15 Anti-wrinkle Eye&Lip Cream

Hello! New month and new reviews coming up! Today I will be reviewing a skincare product by Caudalie that I have really liked so far - Polyphenol C15 Anti-wrinkle Eye&Lip cream. I have always wanted to try out some of the Caudalie products and I have already posted two review on my blog - you can read them here - Caudalie Hand cream and Beauty Elixir. Now it's time for some more reviews :)

Pozdravljeni! Nov mesec prinaša nove ocene izdelkov. Danes bom ocenila izdelek za nego kože in sicer izdelek znamke Caudalie - Polyphenol C15 krema za okoli oči in ust. Vedno so me izdelki  znamke Caudalie zelo zanimali in sem si želela preizkusiti kaj od njih - do sedaj sem objavila že dve oceni, ki ju najdete tukaj - Krema za roke ter Beauty Elixir. In sedaj imam za vas pripravljenih še nekaj ocen več :P

Packaging, price - Full size product comes in  a plastic green tube that contains 15 ml of product. You only need to squeeze a little bit out, just for about the size of a rice grain and it's mostly enough to cover your under eye area. Once opened the product is good for another 9 months. price depends on where you buy it - for international readers you can get it at Feelunique for 35,62 euros.

Embalaža, cena - Polna velikost izdelka pride v plastični zeleni tubi, podobno kot preostala linija Polyphenol C15, vsebuje pa 15 ml izdelka. Za posamezen nanos je potrebna zelo majhna količina, sama porabim nekje za zrno enega riža - nanos pod očesom. Po odprtju je izdelek dober še naslednjih 9 mesecev, Cena variira kje izdelek kupite, Caudalie ponujajo lekarne, Leposana (LJ - Rudnik) ter VivaDerm spletna stran, cena tam pa je  26,20 evra.

About the product - This double-action gel-cream reduces dark circles, depuffs,  smooths away wrinkles arounf the eye contour and the lips. Includes polyphenols and vitamin C (anti-oxidant and anti-wrinkle), that help against wrinkels. Formula is enriched with fern and  Matrixyl 3000 (lifting and anti-wrinkle), horse chestnut (anti-dark circle), liquorice (depuffs), witch hazel.

O izdelku - Gel-krema z dvojim delovanjem zmanjša temne podočnjake in gladi kožo okoli oči in ustnic.  Vsebuje polifenole in vitamin C, ki delujeta proti prostim radikalom in gubicam. Formula je obogatena z Matrixyl 3000 in izvlečkom praproti, kostanja, sladkega korena in nepozebnika.

Testing - Formula is not that gel- like as the description might have misled you. It's certainly a richer formula, but it's not too heavy. On the skin it doesn't feel like I applied a ceam more like a very light lotion. Application is easy, spreads easly and as I have already mentioned you only need the size of a rice grain and it's enough. So even though it say it contains only 15 ml it will last you a couple of months. I have been using this for over two months and I am slowly getting over half of the product. It doesn't leave any greasy residue and it really sinks in fast! Bonus is also that this is not a perfumed product, which is better for under eye area anyway.

My under eye area is where I have been using this product as I don't have wrinkles yet around my lips and  I wanted to see if this cream could help me with my dark under eye area. I must say this cream must contain a lot of vitamin C and chestnut as it really brightened up my under eye area and it moisturizes it too! I don't have wrinkles just yet, so I can not say how well it would help me with those, but the rest of the promises this product definitely keeps! My eyes were very rarely puffed (if I cried before going to sleep I needed some more help with cold compresses), but otherwise my eye area looked moisturized, brighter and well- rested! Plus, the cream is light enough and sinks into the skin well, that it can be used as a base under my usual everyday make-up.

Testiranje - Tekstura kreme ni tako zelo gelu podobna, kot vas je morda malce zavedel opis. Osebno se mi zdi bolj bogata od gela, ampak ni pretežka, tudi ne daje občutka na koži, kot da bi nanesla kremo, bolj kot kak lahkoten losjon. Nanos je enostaven, krema se lepo razmaže in kot sem že omenila zgoraj je potrebno le malo izdelka, nekje za velikost enega riža. Čeprav je izdelek majhen in vsebuje samo 15 ml vam bo zdržal nekaj mesecev. Sama ga uporabljam že malce več kot  dva meseca in sem šele sedaj počasi prišla do nekje polovice tubice. Na koži ne pušča nobenega mastnega filma in se res hitro vpije. Bonus predstavlja tudi dejstvo, da izdelek ni parfumiran, kar je področju podočnjakov, kjer je koža že tako občutljiva in tanka, zelo všeč!

Izdelek sem večinoma uporabljala pod očmi, saj še nimam gubic okoli ustnic, plus res sem želela videti, če mi bo ta krema pomagala z mojimi temnimi kolobarji pod očmi. Zdi se mi, da ta krema res vsebuje visoke vsebnosti vitamina C ter izvlečka kostanja, saj se je področje barvno precej popravilo, precej posvetlilo, pod očmi nisem več tako vijolična in modra, kot sem bila. Moja koža pa je tudi lepo navlažena. Ker trenutno še nimam gub okoli oči, ne morem trditi, kako dobro bi mi ta izdelek pomagal, lahko pa potrdim, da je izpolnil vse ostale obljube. Področje pod očmi je bilo res redko zatečeno (no razen, če sem slučajno jokala pred spanjem, potem sem res rabila pomoč še hladnih obkladkov), drugače pa so moji podočnjaki bili veliko bolj navlaženi, zato so izgledali tudi svetlejši in dobro spočiti! :) Plus, krema je dovolj lahka in se lepo vpije, da jo lahko uporabljam tudi podnevi, pod vsakodnevnim make-upom.

I haven't tried out many eye creams so far, but this one is definitely going on my "repurchase" list, as it's doing it's job and my under eye area seems to really love it! The trick is only not to be lazy and use it every day! :)

Priznam, da nisem poskusila veliko krem za podočnjake do sedaj, vendar gre ta zagotovo na moj seznam "ponovnih nakupov"! Opravlja svoje delo in moji podočnjaki so se zelo dobro odzvali na to kremo! Trik je samo v tem, da ne smem biti lena in je pozabiti uporabljati vsak dan! :)

Currently loving: Caudalie Hand and Nail Cream :)

Hello! Haven't posted about products I have been obssesed with for some time, so I figured it was past time to talk about this amazing hand cream by Caudalie!

Pozdravljeni! Že dolgo nisem objavila kakšne krajše ocene izdelka, ki mi je trenutno izjemno ljub, tako, da je bil res že skrajni čas in danes imam za vas pripravljeno novo oceno - testirala sem kremo za roke in nohte znamke Caudalie!

Product description - Rich in anti-oxidant grape Polyphenols, avocado and shea butters, this cream nourishes, protects and repairs the hands without leaving a greasy film. 98% natural ingredients.

Opis izdelka - Bogata z antioksidativnim polifenolom iz grozdja, avokadom in karitejevim maslom, ta krema neguje, ščiti in skrbi za zdravo kožo rok brez, da bi pustila masten sloj. Vsebuje 98% naravnih sestavin!

Ingredients - INGREDIENTS : AQUA (WATER), GLYCERIN*, CETEARYL ALCOHOL*, VITIS VINIFERA (GRAPE) SEED OIL*, GLYCERYL STEARATE*, BUTYROSPERMUM PARKII (SHEA) BUTTER EXTRACT*, PARFUM (FRAGRANCE), COCO-CAPRYLATE*, SODIUM CETEARYL SULFATE*, PERSEA GRATISSIMA (AVOCADO) OIL*, PALMITOYL GRAPE SEED EXTRACT*, TOCOPHERYL ACETATE*, CAPRYLYL GLYCOL, ACRYLATES/C10-30 ALKYL ACRYLATE CROSSPOLYMER, POTASSIUM SORBATE, PHYTOSTEROLS*, OLEA EUROPAEA (OLIVE) FRUIT OIL*, SODIUM HYDROXIDE, CARBOMER, SODIUMCARBOXYMETHYL BETA-GLUCAN, TOCOPHEROL*, LIMONENE, LINALOOL, GERANIOL. (061/113) *.*Plant origin

Packaging, price - I have read so many great comments about this hand cream I was very happy to see I have received this travel sized packaging of 15 ml as it has been a product I have wanted to try for a long time! It's a hand nail cream and promises to nourish and be anti-oxidant. About the second claim I can not really say, but I can confirm this really does the job!

This hand cream usually comes in tube of  75 ml and costs about 13 euros, which makes it a bit more expensive, but as I see this product really helps my hands and nails, I do not see the price too high. Price wise it's pretty comparable to the Shea Butter hand cream by L'Occitane, that we all love to give and receive as Christmas gifts or just as treats.

Pakiranje, cena - Prebrala sem že veliko pohval na račun te kreme in sem bila zelo vesela, ko sem jo zagledala v paketku izdelkov, ki sem jih prejela v test. Prejela sem sicer potovalno velikost 15 ml, vendar sem jo imela že dolgo na seznamu želja! Gre za kremo za roke, ki obljublja, da neguje ter deluje antioksidativno. Glede drugega ne morem ravno potrditi, lahko pa potrdim, da izdelek odlično neguje kožo!

Krema je običajno pakirana v tubico 75 ml in stane približno 13 evrov, kar jo sicer uvršča med dražje kreme, ampak ker mi krema dejansko pomaga negovati dlani ter nohte, se mi cena ne zdi previsoka. Cenovno gledano je krema primerljiva karitejevi iz L'Occitane, ki jo vsi tako zelo radi podarimo ali prejmemo za na primer božična darila :)

What it promises - This hand cream  promises not to contain any parabens, phenoxyethanol, phtalates, mineral oils, sodium laureth sulfate, ingredients of animal origin.

Kaj izdelek obljublja - Krema ne vsebuje parabenov, ftalatov, minerlanih olj, sestavin živalskega izvora ter dveh drugih sestavin - phenoxyethanol-a ter sodium laureth sulfata.

Texture - The texture is  just right, not too heavy and creamy and not too runny. It sinks into the skin almost instantly and I love that, as I like to go about my stuff right away, without waiting for my hands to dry up.

Tekstura - Tekstura kreme je ravno pravšnja, ni preveč težka in kremna in ni preveč tekoča. V kožo se vpije praktično takoj, že med nanosom, kar mi je zelo všeč, saj se lahko skoraj takoj lotim dela, brez čakanja, da se mi krema vpije in roke osušijo.

Effect - As for the effect I have noticed my skin is a lot smoother and my nails really love this hand cream, especially my cuticles, they are a bit in a better shape than they were, not as dry anymore. 

Efekt -  Moja koža je bolj mehka, moji nohti pa tudi obožujejo tole kremo, so bolj močni, tudi obnohtna kožica se mi hitreje celi in manj poka. Koža je lepo nahranjena in čisto nič suha.

Scent - Also important factor that makes me like this hand cream even more is the scent - it's got an amazing scent that I wasn't able to describe at first as it doesn't remind me of grapes at all. After my boyfriend commented this smells like oranges all I can smell now is oranges! Anyway, it's got a lovely fresh, citrus scent I am really loving! Plus a big bonus is that you only need a drop of it, so a tube of this cream will last you a long time!

Vonj - Pomemben faktor, zakaj mi je ta krema tako zelo všeč je vonj! Najprej ga nisem znala čisto opisati, ko pa je fant komentiral, da mu diši po pomaranči, sedaj tudi sama vonjam samo še pomarančo! Vonj je res svež, citrusni! Seveda, velik bonus te kreme je tudi to, da je dejansko ne potrebujem veliko za eno uporabo, manjša kapljica zadostuje, kar pomeni, da vam bo tuba 75 ml izdelka zagotovo trajal kar nekaj časa!

I find this to be a brilliant hand cream I would recommend to anyone! It really works, smells amazing, doesn't leave any greasy residue on your hands, simply sinks in and you don't even need much for one use! If you have a chance to try it out please do and let me know if it worked for you too! Or if you want to give something different for this year Christmas gift, this might be a perfect gift!

Osebno se mi zdi tale krema odlična in bi jo priporočila komurkoli! Dejansko deluje in pomaga mojim rokam, diši super, ne pušča nobenega mastnega sloja po uporabi, se res lepo in hitro vpije, pa še ne porabi se hitro! Če iščete ideje za božična darila, je tole super izdelek, ki je dovolj vsestranski, da bo ustrezal osebam vseh starosti, pa verjetno tudi moškim! :)

Hope this short review was helpful to you! Thanks for reading!

Upam, da vam je bila ocena v pomoč! Hvala za pozornost!

NEW IN August :)

Hello! And another month has passed... It has been a really good month, I had some time off, went on vacations and more or less relaxed. The big bonus is also all the new collaborations and new opportunities that have happened meanwhile.. most of them unexpectedly... I did a tiny bit of shopping but I still ended up with a bunch of amazing products, so let's get started :)

One of my first purchases was this amazingly smelling Kozmetika Afrodita Pistachio cream shower gel! I haven't gotten around yet to actually testing it, but I did have a chance to sniff it properly and it looks like a very promising product! The second purchase was this really surprisingly good Borotalco Original Deo Roll On that not only smells nice but actually helps me with not having a bad odor or sweating so much! I wonder why I haven't tried this product sooner as it has really impressed me! This was followed by a couple of repurchases - Labello Pure&Natural Olive &Lemon lip balm, which I have had for ages and seems to have grown on me so much that even with 20 or more lip balms already at home I can not live without this one :P And some more repurchases - Balea Aqua Tuchmaske and Balea Totes Meer maske. So far I have only had one test with the Aqua mask and I really liked it so I got myself two more, the concept of applying a hydrating cloth to your face has impressed me once tested and I believe I will be repurchasing these some more. The other Totes meer maske is also an already very well known product and really works well on my oils skin.

And some makeup bits! I have treated myself with a tiny package of Bourjois goodies, that were actually three for the price of one and were really a good deal, even though these are the old products, meaning the ones they don't offer at regular stands anymore. I really liked this mix as it was summery and light, I wore the light blue nail polish for almost three weeks straight! And teh contents of the bag - Bourjois Effet 3D gloss 8H long lasting shade 11, Bourjois 1 Seconde gel texture nail polish 08 Bleu water, Bourjois 1 Seconde Vernis&Nail enamel top-coat silver leaf effect. Anyway, Bourjois is one of my favoruite makeup brands and I knew the purchase was a win for me! I have also indulged in some Lancôme goodies, even thou they are both mini - I have treated myself with  Lip Lover 316 Rose Attrape- Coeur and Le Crayon Khol 01 Noir. Haven't tested them out yet, but I hope they will work for me :)

I was really lucky this month as I have won three different giveaways! Can you believe that? I was really surprised and in one of them  I have received Himalaya Herbals Purifying Neem Face Wash,  Purifying Neem Foaming face wash and Purifying Neem Mask. I haven't tested it yet and I will not open these products for some time now as I have others that I have to test first, but I have never had anything for face by this brand and am looking forward to trying it out.

Another of the giveaway prizes I have won was consisting of four products - BH cosmetics Floral Blush Duo, Essence Fun Fair nail polish 01 You're Mint-blowing, Bebe Young Care intensive care lip balm and Oriflame The ONE 5-in-1 Colour Stylist Cream gloss in Pink charm. I have won these lovely products at another slovenian beuaty blogger that really loves makeup so much she decided to start her own blog! You can go check her out here on her blog, called My Little Wonderland Blog or on her Facebook page. :) I have already started testing and using both lip products and I am liking the both ;)

My third giveaway prize was this lovely Ziaja natural olive body butter + testers! I Haven't started using any of these yet, but I do have quite a lot of testers now to use up and these are Sensitive firming night cream, Cocoa butter cream, Goat's milk day cream, Goat's milk hand cream, Natural olive cream and Natural olive eye cream. I most looking forward to trying out the olive body butter hand cream testers ;)

This month I have also been able to start a new collaboration with NOÉMIE Cosmetics and I have never heard of them before but they were so kind to send me such a lovely bunch of products to test. I have been testing their  Purifying Toning Lotion,  Purifying Cleansing Gel,  Gentle Exfoliating Cream and Sebo - corrective cream during August and you can expect a review in the first part of September :) So far I have really been liking the toning lotion and cleansing gel, as well as exfoliating cream - really gentle helpers to keep my skin soft and clean.

From a brand that is now already well known in Slovenian stores and to other beauty bloggers, called AlpStories,  I have also received three lovely products to try out! I have received Organic Shampoo Aloe Vera, Cleansing gel with Sage & Mint and Tea Tree Oil Face Cream. According to my skin type and skin problems these two products seemed best for me and I have read so many positive reviews for their cleansing gel! The same goes for the Tea tree oil cream, which I am also really looking forward to testing out and hopefully it will work with my skin well. I haven't heard much abouth their shampoos yet but I have already begun testing it and I must say it really surprised me as it gives me more volume than any other shampoo I had in a long time. Also it doesn't foam at all, so I always wonder if I am actually washing my hair or not and if I should add some more shampoo, but so far this has been a very good hair product!

And now this amazingly large pile of Oriflame products! Not to worry, these were sent to me in three different packages, but still I did not expect all these goodies will be for me all in one month! However I am very grateful for the chance to collaborate with Oriflame as I have for several months now and even other products that were not sent to me for review purposes that I had teh chance to try have really impressed me. In general, the whole brand really impressed me. Not all products are amazing and some have more flaws than other but in general this has become one of my favourite brands of makeup and cosmetics, especially the Giordani Gold collection and The ONE makeup products. So this month I have received these lovely bits to try - The ONE 5-in-1 Colour Stylist Cream gloss French Beige,  Giordani Gold  Youth Full Gloss in Lavander,  Swedish Spa Purifying Face mask,  Eleo Hair mask,  Eleo Protecting Oil ideal for colour treated hair, Giordani Gold Bronzing pearls in Natural Radiance. I have already started testing most of these products and will be, hopefully, reviewing them in the month to come. 

Another collaboration that came unexpectedly right this month is with Caudalie and DermEden. I have received a couple of products by Caudalie and testers as well as testers od DermEden, which I have not known before. I have received - Caudalie Paris Vinosource Riche intense moisture rescue cream, Caudalie Paris Polyphenol anti-wrinkle eye & lip cream, Caudalie Paris Hand and nail cream,  testers - Divine oil, Vinoperfect radiance serum, Instant detox mask, Vinoperfect radiance tinted moisturizer, Divine legs tinted body lotion and DermEden testers - Night protocole face intense anti-aging,  D-day Protocole daily defense universal cream. So far I have only been able to test the hand cream and oh my god, I am in love! I have never liked a product so fast! I do get in love with lip products, but with skincare products it always took me some more time. With this hand cream love happened like magic and I adore it! For the rest I can not comment yet as I have not tested yet, but it looks really promising. So far I have only had one Caudalie product, their Beauty Elixir and you can read review here ;)

Another new collaboration that happened this month was with a brand I have never heard before, called HerBio and I have received their AHA Fruit Peeling Mask. I have already started testing this product and it's really as the name suggests, very fruity. Also interesting info is that this brand is local, from Slovenia, more specific from Žalec and the concept of their products and the whole brand is natural cosmetics, herbs, oils, gentle products with longterm effects. Also they don't test on animals. So far I am intrigued, will see how the product works for me :)

By the end of the month I have also had a chance at a new collaboration, this time with a brand well known in the beauty world, called Aussie. I have received three products to test - Aussie Miracle Shine shampoo, Aussie Miracle Moist conditioner, Aussie 3 Minute Miracle reconstructor deep conditioner. I have wanted to try anything from them for a very long time, they were on my wishlist for years now, but they were never available in Slovenia and now that they are I never got to Muller store to check them out so.. as time passed this opportunity presented itself and I am really excited to see how these will work on my hair! I have heard many positive reviews and comments for the 3 Minute Miracle reconstructor, so I hope it will work for me as well.

Just before the end of the month I have received another lovely surprise from Ličila.si, those of you who read me regulary already know I have collaborated with them before. This time they were so kind to send me new Freedom Cosmetics products! I have been spoiled with Pro 12 Audacious Mattes eyeshadow palette,  Pro Butters Lipgloss in shade Pro Butters TGIF and Curl Mascara. For all Slovenian readers they have a special discount code you can use up till the end of October - FREEDOM15! You can use this code on all Freedom Makeup products!

The last package that surprised me this month was from  another brand I have already collaborated with, it's from Dvorec Trebnik and I was lucky to be able to try out products from their new collection dt - Sparkle star haur&body oil, Energy tonic face&body mist, Juicy Orange shower gel and Berry pepper cream for tired legs&feet! I have not tested these yet, but I am really looking forward to! Lately Dvorec Trebnik products impressed me and some are really really amazing products, you can read the latest review here.

So now you know which reviews to expect in the coming month or two and also there are still some products I haven't reviewed yet as I didn't have time yet, but I am catching up on reviews and testing out and such so stay tuned if you're interested! :)

Thanks for reading!
