Ocena: Oriflame - Giordani Gold Intense Shine Nail Lacquer - Noble Burgundy



Pozdravljeni! :) Danes sem za vas pripravila kratko oceno laka za nohte znamke Oriflame, gre pa za lak iz kolekcije Giordani Gold Intense Shine Nail Lacquer ali lak za nohte z intenzivnim sijajem, v najtemnejšem odtenku Noble Burgundy.


Embalaža, cena - Izdelek je zapakiran v lično črno škatlico z zlatim napisom, značilno za izdelke Giordani Gold, nato pa v lični steklenički z zlatim pokrovčkom, ki ima na vrhu gravuro GG (za Giordani Gold). Cena izdelka je 8,99 evra, vendar je lahko tudi nižja, odvisno od kataloškega obdobja.

Barva - Noble Burgundy je zelo temno rdeč lak, popoln odtenek za vse priložnosti po mojem mnenju, marsikomu pa se bo barva zdela pretemna in bolj jesensko/zimska. Sama obožujem temno rdeče, vinske odtenke na nohtih in tale je hitro postal eden izmed mojih najljubših! Predvsem priporočam odtenek vsem, ki se ne bojijo temnejših barv ter bi se rade počutile še malo bolj zapeljive ;) V močnem soncu odtenek izgleda kot res polno dozorele temnejše češnje in je res super!

Na voljo je drugače skupno osem različnih odtenkov, vsi pa so nežnejši in svetlejši od Noble Burgundy - odtenke si lahko ogledate tudi tukaj:)

Nanos, tekstura, obstojnost - Lak vsebuje šipkovo olje, ki neguje nohte ter skrbi za vlago. Nanos je enostaven, vendar pri tem najtemnejšem odtenku je potrebno malo več pozornosti ter previdnosti, da ne ostane lisast ter potrebni sta dve plasti. K lažjemu nanosu pomaga tudi širši čopič, ki je vsaj meni ravno prav velik za hiter in enostaven nanos. Tekstura laka ni preveč gosta in je primerna za plastenje. Posuši se relativno hitro, sama nisem opazila, da bi bilo potrebno dolgo čakati na to, da se lak posuši. Lak mi nohtov ni obarval, kljub temu da spodaj nisem nanesla podlaka. Obstojnost je bila brez podlaka in nadlaka nekje slabe tri dni, z nadlakom pa štiri dni. Menim, da bi se pri svetlejših odtenkih dalo lažje popraviti in prikriti, da se vam je lak že rahlo okrušil, pri Noble Burgundy pa je to kar težko skriti, saj gre za zelo izrazit odtenek. Všeč mi je tudi zaključni sij laka, ker je ravno prav svetleč. 






Krasen temno rdeč odtenek, ki se mi zdi res super primeren za katerokoli priložnost, čeprav take odtenke rada nosim kar za vsak dan :) Z lakcem sem zelo zadovoljna, tudi zdržal mi je zelo dobro, ker sem navajena da se mi še isti dan vse kruši dol, predvsem če imam nanešenih več plasti. V tem primeru pa sem res zadovoljna :) Barva je pa naravnost čudovita!

Najlepša hvala Oriflame Slovenija za izdelek ;)

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

Review: AVON - Hollywood Collection - Hollywood Siren lipstick


Hello! Today's quick review will be about a gorgeous lipstick I bought from AVON, it's from their limited edition Hollywood Collection and I must say I don't remember how long it was available because I only saw it once in the catalog. I am really glad I did decide to give this one a try as it's one of the best classics in my lip kit. I got mine in shade Hollywood Siren, a deep seductive red shade hat really impressed me.

If you have ever tested any AVON lipsticks than you already know they have great pigmentation, they are hydrating and very creamy. The same goes for this lipstick and thanks to these three factors the application of this product is easy and smooth. The formulation is not too sticky and glossy or too matte and dry. I also like the packaging of this one, as it's abit more glam and with a golden writting on top with words Hollywood collection. 

As for the shade goes I believe this is a very good classic shade that is a must have of any women, especially for fall/winter time. It goes well with pale skin as well with some more yellow toned and warm skin. The finish of this lipstick is not matte, but also not too shiny, which makes it polished looking but not cheap and also not too goth, I could say the finish is soft matte. It doesn't have any specific scent, not sweet not like creams and such...

I really love the fact that this is so well pigmented and and creamy, it feels really light on the lips, but you do need to be a bit carefull when applying as it's a strong colour and I would suggest wearing it with a matching lip liner. It doesn't bleed out or something like that, but if you smear it on your skin you will have some troubles getting it off and covering it up, as it's really well pigmented. It doesn't feel dragging on your lips and it doesn't tend to clung to your dry patches. One swipe over your lips is almost enough, I tend to to dab some more on at the center of my lips.

On me it lasted for about 3 to 4 hours, which I find pretty good, especially for a deep dark shade that really needs to look perfect all the time.. 

Before purchasing I did my usual research online and I saw this same lipstick on blondes with fair skin, on brunettes and also on blackhaired gals and they all looked stunning wearing this one. It may look better on those with more porcelain skin or more neutral skin undertone, but I think you could pull this off even if you have warm, yellow toned skin tone ( as I have and I think it looks amazing even on me). :)

The price for this one was 4,70 euros I think, which is a very reasonable price for a lipstick of this quality. This one really does feel like 1940's Hollywood glamour





Have you tried any AVON lipsticks? Do you have any recommendations?

Thanks for reading!
