Illamasqua Berber or How you can fall in love with an eyeshadow

Hello :)

Prije tri mjeseca sam s jednom grupom cura sudjelovala u mega narudžbi sa Illamasqua UK stranice i dva mjeseca i pol mjeseca kasnije (da...dobro ste pročitale, dva i pol mjeseca uz krivo poslane artikle, prepakiravanje i neodgovaranje na pitanja upućena službi za korisnike...) dobila sam naručeno.

Three months ago a few girls and me decided to  made a huge order from a Ilamasqua UK site and two and a half months later (yes...two and a half months it took for a package of make-up to arrive to its destination, and not without some missing products) my order was here.


Neke od stvari će imati premijeru na blogu prvog dana svibnja, a danas vam želim pokazati prekrasni Illamasqua pigment po imenu Berber.
U Berber sam se zaljubila čim sam ga vidjela, kad ga je Nihrida swatchala, a zatim i kad ga je pokazala u punom svijetlu, znala sam da je stvoren za mene. Nažalost mi je uvijek bilo malo puno izdvojiti 155kn, koliko dođe po punoj cijeni u Illamasqua dućanu. Zato kad sam vidjela da je na zimskom sniženju na UK stranici za 5 GBP, nije bilo dvojbe: 50kn i dva i pol mjeseca dalje i napokon je stigao do mene.

Some of the thingies I ordered you will see on 1st of May, and today I want to show you the beautiful  Illamasqua loose pigment Berber.
I fell in love with Berber as soon I laid my eyes on it, when Nihrida swatched it, and then when she showed it in its full glory I knew it was ment to be. Unfortunately, 15.50 GBP was always just a bit too expensive for me. When I saw it was on sale for just 5 GBP, I was without a doubt: 50 HRK and two and a half months later, and it was here.




Berber dolazi u standardnom Illamasqua pakiranju, crni karton, ovaj puta prorezan kako bi se vidjela nijansa pigmenta, sadrži kvadratnu, plosnatu kutijicu punu crvenkaste divote.
Kutijica sadrži 1.3 grama proizvoda, a rok trajanja mu je 18 mjeseci od otvaranja (hau jes no, trajat će dok ga ne potrošim :D ).

Berber arrives in a standard Illamasqua packaging, black cardboard, this time with a square shaped hole to better see the color of the pigment, contains a squareish flat plastic box filled with a reddish beauty.
It contains 1.3g of product, and its expiry date is 18 months from the first opening (as if, it will last until it is all gone :D ).




Ako mu išta zamjeram, to je onda poklopac kojeg je dosta teško otvoriti ako nemate duže nokte, s obzirom da je jako gladak i nema nikakav utor koji bi pomogao pri otvaranju. 

The only thing I don't like is the lid which is almost impossible to open if you don't have long nails, considering it is very smooth and it doesn't have any ridge which would be very helpful.




Kad ga napokon otvorite, dobijete ovo čisto savršenstvo, crvenkasto narančasti ciglasti prah pun zlatno zelenih šljokica. 

When you manage to open it, you get this pure perfection, reddish orangeish bricky dust packed with golden-green glitter. 


L: applied dry; R: applied wet



Gornji swatch mi nije baš najbolji od svih napravljenih, ali pošto je Berber jako fino mljeven, uz izuzetak šljokica, dosta se rasipa pri swatcanju i ne ostavlja dovoljno dobro pigmentiran premaz. Uz svo rasipanje po ruci, očekivala sam da će mi pola lica postat berberasto kad se pokušam našminkat s njim, ali začudo, jako se malo trusi kad ga se pažljivo nanosi kistom.

I'm not very proud with my swatch pictured above because Berber is very finely milled, with the exception of glitter, and it has much fallout during swatching and it's not very pigmented. Considering the fallout, I expected I will have a half of my face berbery when I try to do eye make up, but this wasn't the case, as it has a very little fallout when it is carefully applied with the brush.


Berber ima toliko lica da sam napravila čak tri različita looka.
Za prvi sam nanijela essence crno mat sjenilo na cijeli kapak i izblendala ga prema obrvi. Zatim sam na kapak nanijela pošteni sloj Berbera te ga izblendala preko crne podloge, radi čega je izgubio intenzitet i stopio se s podlogom.
Na obrvama je Catrice Starlight espresso sjenilo, maskara je essence I love extreme, baza je Art Deco, a ova loša crna olovka na waterlineu je e.l.f.
Slijede dvije slike istog looka s različitim osvijetljenjem.

Berber has so many different sides to it, I had to make at least three different looks for it.
For the first one I applied matte essence black eyeshadow all over my lid, and blended it towards the brow. Then I packed Berber on my lid and blended it with the black base. It lost a lot of intensity because of blending, and it merged with the black eyeshadow. On my eyebrows I had Catrice Starlight espresso eyeshadow, mascara is essence I love extreme, eyeshadow base is Art Deco, and this horrific black pencil on the waterline is e.l.f.
The two pictures below are of the same look, but under different illumination.





Dok sam se naslikavala i pokušala uhvatiti prekrasno prelijevanje Berbera na kapcima, naletila sam post Voodoo Blonde o Inglot Duralineu, koji mi čami u ladici Helmera već godinu dana. Zanimalo me kako se Duraline i Berber slažu pa sam nasaftala blazinicu Bioderma micelarnom, maknula gornji look i naduralajnala berber :)

While I was trying to take a good photo of the look above, I stumbled upon the post Voodoo Blonde  made about Inglot Duraline, which was sitting in my Helmer drawer for the past year. I wondered how it would work with Berber, so I immediately took off my makeup with Bioderma sensibio, and duralined the berber :)





Na gornjoj slici nemam ništa na licu i obrvama, na kapcima je sjenilo boje kože da sakrije kapilare, maskara je essence I love extreme, a crta je napravljena Duralineom i Berberom.

On this photo above, I have nothing on my face and eyebrows, and on my eyelid I masked the capillaries  with the beige eyeshadow, put on essence I love extreme and made a cat-eye with Duraline and Berber.



Dan poslije mi ponovo vrag nije dao mira te me zanimalo kakav je spoj essence mat crnog sjenila na vanjskom kutu oka i mješavine Duraline+Berber na kapku. 

A day later I couldn't resist so I made another look, this time with Duraline and Berber all over my lid, and blending it out with essence matte eyeshadow.



Usuđujem se reći da su fenomenalni :D
Kao i na prvom looku, na obrvama je Catrice Starlight espresso, maskara je essence I love extreme, a tuš je Catrice Black Jack With Jack Black.

If you don't mind me say, Duraline and Berber together are amazing :D
As on the first look, I used Catrice Starlight espresso for the eyebrows, mascara is essence I love extreme and the eyeliner is Catrice Black Jack With Jack Black.


Toliko od mene o Berberu, jedva čekam da ga izvedem u javnost.
That's all from me tonight, I can't wait to wear Berber in public.



Hvala puno na čitanju.
Thank you for reading,
Nic

    Pozdrav!
