Hello :)

Today I will briefly present to you my picks from the essence Wild craft TE :)

When I saw the preview of the collection I thought that the brush looked ok, but that the rest of the stuff is pretty meh. It wasn't very long until I changed my mind :D

L-R: Rosewood Hood, Out Of The Forest, Mystic Lilac

Rosewood Hood and Mystic Lilac

Look at that imprint on the eyeshadows, it's soooo beautiful :)
I seriously hesitated to disturb it, I was fascinated with those ridges.

The magnificent trio

And now the close-up :D

essence Mystic lilac

Fortunately, that delicate imprint isn't the best thing about this collection, all  three shades have buttery soft texture, and glide on beautifully. They have very good pigmentation even without the primer, as you can see on the swatch below.

L-R: Rosewood Hood, Out Of The Forest, Mystic Lilac

Rosewood Hood is a shimmery champagne-beige color, which will be great as highlight and a base color.
Out of the Forest is a goldened olive green which looks a bit brownish, depending on the lighting. It also has the least buttery texture of the three.
Mystic Lilac is a deep violet shade, and it is the most pigmented of the three. And of course, it's my favorite (who would've guessed, right? :D )



I didn't plan on getting any of the shades of nail polish from this collection but then I saw these swatches and instantly fell in love with the Rosewood Hood and Mystic Lilac.
The best thing about them? Their price -.-

I still haven't got around to actually wearing them on my nails, but I'm not really satisfied with their brush, especially the one in Mystic Lilac. It is too big and soft, and it picks up too much of the nail polish.
The only thing why I picked up Rosewood Hood is because I don't own much of the nude polishes, and I'm a bit of the hoarder. Even though I probably won't wear it but once or twice, I still had to have it.

Hello :)


Prije malo manje od godinu dana sam dobila predivnu Sleek Berry kolekciju za kojom sam patila, a koju su mi za rođendan (uz ostale divne stvarčice) poklonile moje krasne babe sa Četa koji ne Šteka (interna) :D
Sad je napokon došlo vrijeme da je i vama pokažem :)
Usput, obojila sam kosu u crno (koja se ispire na smeđe sa svakim pranjem) tako da i to možete primjetiti na slikama :D

A bit less than a year ago my awesome friends got me for my birthday the amazing Sleek Berry Collection that I wished for a long time, and now it's finally time for me to show it to you :D
Also, my hair is black now (and is turning brown with every washing) so that is something you may notice on the photos :D

Sretan Boooooooooožić svima koji ga slave 


Nadam ste da ste proveli krasan dan na toplom i uz puno hrane u krugu najdražih (slavili ili ga ne slavili ;) ) te da ste dobili puno lijepih i korisnih poklona. Ja se moram pohvalit s nekoliko njih koji su krasni i koji su mi izmamili suze na oči :)

Prvo sam od moje krasne Lee Girlysh u secret santa darivanju nas nekoliko baba dobila ovaj krasan poklon:



Zeleni čaj s bazgom kojeg trošim kao da se drogiram njime, prefinu Aveo tuširalicu, Avon ruž u boji bobica, dekant Lancome La vie est belle parfema za kojim cmoljim otkad sam ga pošnjofala, MUA From dusk till dawn paletu koja mi je na pinterest wishlisti, prefora gumicu za kosu s metalnom lubanjom, Kleancolor lak za kojim patim već odavno te dva preprepreprefenomenalna frankena koji su napravljeni samo za mene  i divnu čestitku s dvije bubamare  (na slici nedostaju čokoladice koje sam ubila prije slikanja).

Lee, hvala ti, najbolja si curica na svijetu 




Sad prelazim na poklon koji sam danas dobila od dragog, a što je izveo tako stealthy da sam ga izudarala na kraju :D
Ja inače reagiram na iznenađenja koja me ostave paf na način da krenem psovat poklanjatelja i lupat ga :D
Tako da sam mu umjesto "ljubavi" krenula govorit "glupane" i "budalo" i još neke stvari koje nisu za objavljivanje :D
I to toliko da jadan čoek nije znao jel mi se uopće svidio poklon. A poklon je savršen:


Presavršeno :)


Kako ste vi proveli Božić?
Jeste dobili nešto lijepo?



Još jednom sretan Božić i uživajte :*

Hello :)


Tonight I was feeling really down (for no reason whatsoever) and decided to channel my grumpiness towards something creative :)
Ta-da!



I first wanted to do a look with MUA palettes, and than I wanted to do a vampireish look (not the lame Twilight vampires, but something really cool, Anne Rice/True Blood-esque).
At the end I went with using mostly Geek Chic Cosmetics loose eyeshadows, and this is the end result.
As for lips, I knew I wanted to use Catrice After work wine lipstick, but I decided to use it as a stain, to keep the focus on the eyes.




Later on I decided to use it as a lipstick and when I applied it, I thought it look even better than before?
Which one do you like better? :)







This is everything that I used, except for the sample of Kanebo Water MakeUp Base (face primer), and it is amazing, hydrating and I'm definitely going to buy it, despite it's price (around 45 EUR).





That's it for today :)
At the end, I'm really happy about this make up look, and it definitely succeeded in terms of making me feel better :)

Good night, and thank you for reading :*
