Pozdravljeni na mojem blogu! 

Upam, da je danes vaš dan in da se dobro počutite. Jaz osebno se počutim odlično! Že nekaj mesecev je moj blog počival, nisem objavljala ničesar, razlogov se lahko najde sto in še en. Vendar bom nanje pozabila. Začenjam znova! 

Končno sem našla ponovno motivacijo in veliko inspiracije, da se lahko s srcem spet lotim pisanja objav. Res sem jih pogrešala! Ne bodo najbolj pogoste, sam sem v zadnjih tednih pred zaključnimi izpiti in pisanjem diplome in prostega časa nimam veliko na voljo, vendar se bom potrudila maksimalno. 

Z novim začetkom sem se odločila še za eno 'bolj drzno' potezo: poskusila bom pisati v angleškem in slovenskem jeziku, saj se mi zdi, da se bo tako moj blog razvil v polnem potencialu. 

Za začetek pripravljam nekaj objav o mojih trenutnih najljubših izdelkih in kakšno objavo o porabljenih izdelkih. Take so moje najljubše objave in menim, da nisem edina. 

Vsem, ki berete moj blog se iskreno zahvaljujem za vaš čas in upam, da še niste čisto pozabili name ter, da se kmalu vrnete!

P.S.: Popolnoma sem prenovila izgled svoje bloga, za še lepši začetek. Vam je všeč? :)

Welcome to my page!

I hope you are having a great day so far. I am feeling wonderful! For a couple of months my blog was having a bit of a break, and there are a 100 different reasons for that. But I will forget all about that. I am starting over!

Finally I found new motivation and inspiration for blogging, and I really missed that! There was not a day that I wouldn't think about my blog. I can't promise to write posts very often, because I don't have much free time. I am in my last months of Uni and I am studying for my last exams and writing my bachelor's degree at the moment. 

Nonetheless, I will try to put maximum effort into everything I do. With this new beginning, I also decided to do something special: I will write posts in English and in Slovenian, my native language. For a start, I am preparing a few posts about my favorite products and a few empties. These kinds of posts are my favorite and I believe I am not the only one.

I want to say a sincere thank you to all my readers, thank you for your time and I hope to read you again soon! :)

P.S.: I changed my blog template and rearranged the whole look! What do you think about it?

This really shouldn't be titled like this, since it's not completely true, but it was the easiest title.
I'm going to show you all the products I keep in my makeup bag at my boyfriend's house. I don't live with him yet, but I sleep over a few times a week. You know how heavy our bags can be... I really don't want to carry all this makeup with me all the time, along all the other heavy things!

So I created a list of all the must have products, made a collection and now I don't have to worry about carrying everything with me, every time I visit. And it's great! 

CATRICE ALL MATT PLUS FOUNDATION: I already had this foundation in my collection and it wasn't my favorite. I mean, it's OK, but I wouldn't use it every day. For twice a week, it's totally fine. Why I don't like it as much? I feel like this shade makes my skin look grey and dull. Also, it can get cakey if you apply too much. The ESSENCE STAY ALL DAY CONCEALER was just a random buy and so far it's good for those 2€. 

CATRICE SKIN FINISH POWDER and SUN GLOW MATT BRONZER: I had these two for forever and I really need to use them up! Powder is very natural looking, but I think this shade is not the best match for me, I usually buy translucent powders, so I have no idea what was I thinking. This bronzer is my favorite, I actually use it on a daily basis. It looks good on my pale skin, not orange, and for me that's the most important thing. You still have to be careful not to apply too much. 

MANHATTAN POWDER ROUGE (shade Apricot) I had this one for years. I should probably throw it away. But it still looks OK, the shade is very natural and gives some glow to my skin. I also like that it has a brush, so I don't need to use an additional one, because this one 

works surprisingly good. 

CATRICE MULTICOLOR HIGHLIGHTER (LE Celtica) I am sorry to say that, because I love Catrice products, but this one sucks. It has no pigmentation. I would still like to use at least a bit of it up, so I don't feel guilty for throwing it away. I apply it with my fingers, becase I feel that it actually picks the pigment up better than any brush I tried.

CATRICE ABSOLUTE NUDE and CHOCOLATE NUDES: my favorite drugstore palette's. I am not going to discuss much about them because I am sure you are all familiar with these. I like that they are small and fit into this bag easily. The colors are perfect for every day, and I can easily create a few very nice looks with these. I have to say, I am a bit disappointed with pigmentation in the Chocolate nudes palette. The other one is much better. 

ESSENCE SHADOW QUAD: this is too old. I probably had this one for more than 3 years. I know, I know. I only use it because I like the matte brown shade. 

AVON EYE SHADOW BASE: this is my favorite eye shadow base and I use it daily. I would recommend this to anyone. 

 CATRICE EYEBROW PENCIL (shade 020): this one is also a must have, it is my favorite eyebrow product, easy to manage and the color is a perfect match. I believe this is my 4th pencil already. I would repurchase it any time.

AVON BIG&DARING BLACK PENCIL is a daily necessity in my make-up routine. I like this one because the color is a true black, it is very long lasting and you don't have to use a sharpener. If you want to smudge it, you have to do it right away after you apply it because it sets very quickly and doesn't move after.

DEBORAH BROWN EYE PENCIL: this one is poorly pigmented and not very long lasting, but I use it when I want a softer look. If I use a primer before and set it with a shadow afterward, the longevity becomes almost decent.

BALEA LIPBALM: I always use some kind of a lip balm before I start applying make up. This is just a cheap one I want to use up. 

ESSENCE I <3 EXTREME waterproof mascara. I bought this after seeing many bloggers write good things about it. This one is actually the first Essence mascara I like. It's nothing spectacular, but for the cheap price it works just fine. It's very hard to get it off, and that bugs me a lot, so I keep it in this bag where I don't have to use it more than twice a week.  

 And for makeup application? On the first picture you saw a Beauty blender dupe. I use it to apply foundation, because I love the finish it gives. It's not the best one though, I bought if for 1 euro from Born pretty store. Real techniques miracle sponge is much much better. The brushes I use are for powder, bronzer, large concealer brush and some flat and blending eyeshadow brushes. 

That would be all I keep in my bag! Do you think it's too much for every day? Do you like some of these products?

Thanks for reading!

Have a nice day.

Recently I've been loving these two Afrodita body care products: Red grapes oil shower gel and Mineral water with aloe vera body moisturizer. This shower oil gel leaves you with the softest skin and the moisturizer is perfect for every day, with a refreshing scent. It is quite light, so I wouldn't use it in the winter time, when my skin gets really dry. 

This new Essence 'Hi, I care for you!' hand cream is my favorite because of the light floral scent, and the way this sinks into your skin in seconds, leaving it soft and nourished, is amazing. Shea butter and coconut oil really work like magic! Lush's Lemony flutter is a staple: best cuticle cream! I am sure you have all heard about this amazing product before. I also use it on my elbows and feet sometimes, because they tend to get really dry in these colder days.

This got2beVolumania refreshing styling powder is not really a dry shampoo, but I use it like one. It works perfect! Smells like raspberries, and really gives some texture to your hair, but I am not quite sure about the volume. I don't really care about that anyway, because I use it as a dry shampoo on my third day hair, and it works perfect for that.
Elvital Fibralogy shampoo is my go to for the past two months. What is it about it that I love? It foams up a lot, so I can only shampoo my hair once, don't feel the need to do it twice, and get a really clean feeling none the less. My hair is always so soft after I use it, even if I am too lazy to use some conditioner. It doesn't make my hair greasier than it already is, I can get away with three days between washing (on the third day I always use the got2be spray I mentioned a few lines ago).

And now for some makeup products!


Maybelline Colorama nail polishes were a big surprise to me! They are really really good! Unfortunately the color selection here in Slovenia is quite poor and old, but you can find some nice shades. These last up to 7 days on my nails, which is amazing! With the black one I got to 6 days without top coat!


Bourjois Healthy mix serum foundation in shade 51 is an old (and probably every month's) favorite. This works amazing on my skin, it's a perfect color match and I love the dewy finish it leaves.
Catrice Made to stay highlighter pen is a great inner corner highlight, but you need to know it is super glittery and it can look too artificial if you use it too much. I wanted to take a swatch picture but sadly this product didn't want to work with me, and all the pictures were blurry and weird...so I rather not post any.
L'oreal Miss manga mega volume mascara is a repurchase. It is a decent drugstore mascara, not too expensive. It gives some length and volume, but can easily clump your lashes if you are not careful. I will probably not repurchase it again, because I know I can find better ones out there.
Maybelline color sensation lipstick in the shade 620 pink brown was my favorite lipstick for the past month, since I got it. The scent is nice, sweet, and for a shade this nude this is very long lasting. The name describes the shade perfectly: pink brown. Very good nude shade for us pale girls. 

The last two products are my absolute favorites and they are both from Makeup revolution:


Their Naked chocolate palette is the most beautiful eyeshadow palette I have ever seen. It's almost like my name is written all over it because all the colors are simply stunning and totally my taste! I like to create dramatic looks and this gives me just that. But if I want to create a somewhat natural look for every day, this is just perfect for that, too. I love it! With some primer, these stay on for 24 hours, if they need too. Every single shade in this palette is pigmented, some more, some less, but none of them is disappointing. For the low price (around 10€) this is wonderful and a must have.
The Pro fix amazing makeup spray is a new product to me, because I was never really into setting sprays. But after reading a lot of good reviews, I had to get this one to try! It did not let me down. Since I got it, I use it daily. I feel like my makeup stays perfect for the whole day with this, and I honestly don't have to worry about the possibility of  some 'disappeared' bronzer and blush at the end of the day. It stays put perfect. You need to try this if you haven't already!

It's been more than three months. Three long and busy months. 

Exams, job, problems, some more exams... time flew by, and after a month of not having enough time, my motivation dropped down to zero. You might think these are just some excuses, but believe me, they are not.

Somewhere in the middle also my phone died, I use it to take pictures for my blog... And for the next two months, I waited for it to be fixed. I the mean time I was using my old phone, and it's camera quality is shit. I tried to take some pictures for blog, but they were horrible. So I let it all aside.

Yesterday I finally got a new phone! After so much waiting, brand new phone with a very good camera. I am so happy!

Finally I can start taking pictures again, and with the start of a new year, I am full of ideas and motivated to write the best posts ever! 

Not to mention, tomorrow I am attending the first beauty bloggers meet up here in my city, meeting all fellow Slovenian bloggers and learning new tips and tricks on how to write the best posts, take good pictures... I can't wait! 

I know three month long break is a very long one, and I sincerely hope not all of you have forgotten about me. I certainly have not forgotten about my blog, honestly, I was thinking about it every day and feeling guilty for not posting.

Thank you for reading this! I wish you all a very happy, successful, motivated and positive new student's year! 

Read you soon, (coming back with my recent favorites post - my favorite kind of posts!)

This was the gift, travel size of the Black vanilla body lotion. This smells divine. It is a strong, erotic scent and I imagine it wouldn't be suitable for everyone. I totally see myself wearing this in the summer for date nights with my man.

DOVE SUNSHINE is a gradual self tanner I use every summer. It doesn't stink and gives me a natural glow and color to the skin, perfect for my pale complexion. Price: 4€ 

SUN DANCE SPF 20. I bought this in a hurry, just to get some sun protection, I don't really care about the brand. I like that it is a spray. Price: 3,69€

BOURJOIS HEALTY MIX foundation is a must in my make up bag. I repurchased it as soon as I ran out of my last bottle. I went a shade up, for summer, and got it in a 52 shade. This is such a beautiful glowing, healthy looking foundation! Price: 14,99€

My old eyelash curler broke (after 5 years or more) so I bought a new one. I didn't have much choice because this ELITE MODELS was the only one in the drugstore when I was buying it. So far it works OK but nothing spectacular. Price: 4,69€

L'OREAL PARIS NAIL POLISH collection exclusive by Julianne was a bit of a disappointment! It looked like a perfect vibrant coral in the store, but when I applied it on my nails... where is the coral? All I got was a bright red. The shade is deceiving. I will use it none the less, but I really wanted the shade to be coral. Price: 4,99€ (too high!)

ESSENCE THE GEL NAILPOLISH in Hey, love! is a red glitter nail polish I intend to use as a top coat over black or dark red base, I saw this combination on my friend and it was lovely! Price: 1,69€

REVLON 45 DAYS TOTAL COLOR CARE SHAMPOO & CONDITIONER for brave reds. My roommate knew I wanted to buy this for the longest time, but never really got to it, so she got it for me. So far I like it, but it's kinda hard to work with, because it is conditioner and a shampoo at the same time and that makes it a bit hard to work with. 

I also got two lovely nail polishes from two friends, thank you girls! I love the shades. :)
