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!





From my two favourite drugstore brands I have five new products, two of them are a repurchase - Bourjois Healthy Mix Serum 51 Light Vanilla and Bourjois Healthy Mix foundation 51 Light Vanilla. I loved both of these foundations, I have already talked about these on my blog here, but I couldn't resist getting some more again! The HM serum version is going out of sale so if you loved it make sure you catch some stock while you still can! Another Bourjois product I absolutely loved to use this month was Smoky Stories  quad eyeshadow palette 12 Sau-mondaine. Really love the colour combo here, but this photo doesn't show well the real colours. I have already talked about this quad in my latest blog collab post with Rebeka from My Little Wonderland blog! The last two products are also a bit of repurchase really, but in different shades! I love Lip Butters and I have posted about them a long time ago, you can check the posts here and here ;) I was feeling very springy and wanted some more vibrant light shades for spring/summer season so I bought two more shades - Revlon Colorburst lip butter 053 Sorbet and 090 Sweet tart!


I have received a huge surprise package from Ličila.si! Oh what a happy day! I got I Heart Makeup Pink Fizz eyeshadow palette,  Makeup Revolution Pro Prime Aqua Priming Base and Freedom Makeup Pro Studio brush bath sanitising brush cleanser! Now that I have Pink Fizz palette, the only one I want to try out and need to purchase is Salted Caramel! :D Just kidding, I have a feeling I will soon have them all! I have also tried the Aqua Priming Base and so far I must say I liked it, it gives a nice refreshing feeling to the skin, doesn't grease it up and helps with priming my skin for foundation. I need to test it out some more before I can say how well it performed. The brush bath will come in handy as I just ran out of everything I used to use for cleaning my brushes. Thank you so much Ličila.si! ;)


Another brand that is local and works in collaboration with Ilirija contacted me and sent me two products to try out! I will be testing De Le Roi Anti - cellulit cream and I also received their Anti - age cream. The face cream will go to someone with a more suitable skin type than mine, so stay tuned for there will be a giveaway in the near future! For the anti-celullite cream I plan to write a full blog post once I get to testing it out!


Two more major surprise packages of the month came from AVON and CAUDALIE! From AVON I received Treasures Of The Desert Restoring Hand Cream with Moroccan Argan Oil and Nailwear Pro+ in Sheer Citrus! I have no idea how they knew but I really wanted to try out  shade Sheer Citrus! It looked so fresh and summery in the catalog I  really wanted to get this one! I have already tried out the hand cream and I love it as well! Nourishes really well and smells divine! From CAUDALIE  I received Vinosource moisturizing mattifying fluid! Another amazing product that was exactly what I wanted to get my hands on! Something mattifying that will moisturize my skin well and not leave it greasy and maybe even perform well as a makeup base. I think I got exactly that in this product!


At the end of the month I spend a couple of days in Opatija, Croatia and of course I wouldn't be a beauty blogger if I didn't at least check out their drugstore BIPA. I must say nothing impressed me much  but I did get three products that I actually will use and want. In a way I made a repurchase of Batiste Dry Shampoo, but this time I got Floral & Flirty Blush. One new product I bought beacause I love toners and this one seemed very interesting was BiGood Naturliches Gesichts Wasser - Facial toner Weisse Seerose. Looks like natural and vegan cosmetics is spreading and I am trying to buy more natural skin care if possible. However, I couldn't resist getting Neutrogena Visibly Clear Pink Grapefruit Oil-free moisturizer! I wanted to try this ever since I saw it in one of Amelia Liana's videos and I hope it will help me as my skin is really getting crazy lately, I have a ton of tiny little pimples that just don't budge.



One of the most anticipated limited editions of this spring/summer season! ESSENCE Lights Of Orient LE  impressed me with the design and colour choices so in two separate occassions I got my hands on Body splash 01 Genie in a bottle,  Matt lipstick 02 Princess Jasmines Choice, Body&Cuticle tattoos 01 Magic Carpet Ride, blush  01 Princess Jasmines Choice and bronzer  01 Sunkissed Beauty. I especially love the blush and bronzer, though the lipstick, body splash and body tattoos impressed me as well and I love to use them! The shades and the design are really lovely, however they could make a bit better packaging, a bit more luxuriously looking one instead of transparent plastic ones, but than the price would go up and it wouldn't be an Essence product any more.I have already posted about three products from the bunch - check out the post here!


KOZMETIKA AFRODITA had a special event in April and presented four new shower gels! I have been lucky to receive all for of them. Two are based on oils and two of them are cream shower gels! All have lovely floral scents which are pretty gentle! I have received Secret Garden Magnolia Blossom oil shower gel and Wild Orchid Oil shower gel, as well as Secret Garden Lovely Roses cream shower gel and Romantic Peony Cream Shower Gel. I haven't started testing yet, but I will soon! If these seem interesting to you be prepared as some of these will be also in my next giveaway!



This years NY resolution was to try out some more luxurious products or at least ones that have an interesting design, that seem a bit more special! So in order to keep up this resolution I have treated myself with two CATRICE products that impressed me the most - Catrice Bold Softness LE Colour Correcting Powder  C01 Correction'n Perfection and Catrice Denim Divine LE eyeshadow palette C01 Injeanious. Both of these are affordable drugstore products and at the same time both are pretty different from the rest of their limited editions or regular products! The powder amazed me with how light and effective it is, only need a gentle swipe with my brush and I'm done. No looking white-ish after and still mattifies well. The palette has a lovely packaging design, with no added applicator I wouldn't be using anyway and with a lovely colour selection! I have been wearing this palette almost every day since I bought it and that's saying something! I never stick to one palette or eyeshadow for longer than two or three days, I always try to mix the products as much as possible, especially eyeshadows and lipsticks as I have so many of them and I try not to neglect them. And one of the most luxurious products I have had the chance to try out is again by Oriflame and their Giordani Gold collection - I have been kindly sent this Jewel Powder in shade Light! The design of the packaging is just soo beautiful! I just received  it at the ned of the month so no first impressions yet, but I have high hopes for it!



Brighter and warmer months coming up now and I feel like I need to gear up with fresh smelling products! I have been pampering myself with two freshly scented beauties - L'Occitane Spray Corps Exterieur/ Outdoor Body Spray Verveine with extracts of Verbena from provance and Citronella Grass and Balea Body Gelée with mint and watermelon scent. The L'Occitane spray is really fresh and very lemony smelling, while Balea gelée is really just like the word, a gel like Product for skin care that nourishes lightly and also leavES your skin smooth and with a lovely fresh fragrance. The mix of mint and watermelon is quite amazing actually, perfect for summer!



The last product I am super excited about arrived at the end of the month along with Giordani Gold Jewel Powder and it's Oriflame's  SkinPro Cleansing System Cleansing device! First impressions are very good and I must say I love the brush as it's gentle enough for me! There will be a full post as soon as I can really do some more serious first impressions and probably later on I will write the effect of this brush on my skin after let's say three months. I already have Braun face brush as well and I do like it but the brush is sometimes too harsh for my skin, so  I stopped using it on a regular basis and returned to my usual face peelings. If you would like to see a comparison post let me know!

And I'm done! A lot faster than previous months and again - I love every single beauty product of the month! I really do! Love the products I have received and am looking forward to trying them out and also love the products I have purchased myself, I don't think any of these will dissapoint me!

Have you already tried any of these? Did you like them?

Thanks for reading!

Love, UniqaPoly

  2. Zanimiva objava! Praktično nič od naštetega še nisem poizkusila, me pa zelo mika Bourjois Healthy Mix, ker sem prebrala že kar nekaj pozitivnih ocen.

    1. Hvala! HM puder ter tudi HM serum sta odlična, sploh serum za poletni čas ker je bolj lahkoten. Sem dodala v objavo link do moje ocene, tako, da si lahko preberete tudi to ;)

  4. Šla sem pogledat za HMS, pa ni tukaj nič znižan nikjer in še vedno so polne police. A si zihr da gre iz prodaje? Tudi na njihovih socialnih medijih nisem našla nobene besede o tem.

    Revlon Sweet Tart imam že dolgo časa, pa je res tak kjut, spomladanski odtenek :)
    Tega Bastiste pa še nisem videla, izgleda zanimiv :)

    1. Pri nas je v DM-u tudi znižan. Vsi odtenki serum verzije. Če gre iz prodaja pa ne vem.

      Delete
    2. Ej meni je rekla da gre ven iz prodaje, razen tistih parih pri blagajni ga ni več nikjer, na stojalu ni več niti placa za HMS.. možno da v DMju v NM sam še niso začel razprodajat? Ali pa je kaka fora da določeni DMji kake stvari ne bodo več držali?

      Ja Sweet Tart je res super pomladen! Jaz sem ga videla pri enih blogerkah, tuji blogi, kupla sem ga pa na Hrvaškem, v BIPI.

    3. Saj v DM-u sploh ni HMS pri nas, že dolgo. Ampak v Müllerju pa ni nič znižano in nič ne izgleda, da bo šel iz prodaje.

    4. Ja malo je čudno, da vsak DM dela po svoje... na Viču so prav vse ven vrgli, ga sploh ni in še vedno trdijo, da gre iz prodaje...

  5. Vse smo navdušene nad Essence kolekcijo. Res lep dizajn :). Pink Fizz že komaj čakam, da vidim swatche. Jaz imam prvo Naked Chocolate in je res odlična. Catrice paleta me je v trgovini prijetno presenetila. Senčila so izgledala izjemno dobre kvalitete in zlat dizajn mi je bil zelo všeč, samo odtenki niso ravno po mojem okusu. Tudi bronzer se mi je zdel zanimiv. Bom morala večkrat pogledat Catrice kolekcije. Po navadi se mi je zdelo, da so istih kvalitet kot Essence s samo dražjo ceno :).

    1. Ja, dizajn te kolekcije je noro lep! Pink Fizz sploh nisme vedla, da si tolko želim, ampak je res lepa paletka, nežni odtenki popolno za vsakdan! Catrice je tudi mene presenetila, je bila v bistvu precej impulzivni nakup, ko sem šla dvignit Click2chic naročila, sem še to zagledala in so bili swatchi na roki tako lepi, da sem jo kar vzela! :P Načeloma so si podobne ja te kolekcije, vsake tolko je pa kak izdelek v kaki izmed kolekcij, ko res izstopa po kvaliteti in je vreden takojšnjega nakupa! :P
