MeMeMe - Eye Inspire Eyeshadow Trio

Hey lovely readers :)
Živjo drage bralke :)

On this casual Sunday I have another review for you in English and Slovene.
This time I am reviewing a new brand that I haven't tried before. It is MeMeMe and I have heard of it before by watching a lot of british Beauty vloggers.
Last month Anja from Moja Drogerija (click away) asked us to pick a quad/trio from this brand to review and I decided to pick 04 Desire Eyes.
I was very atracted to this shade, because it's green colors reminded me of fall/autumn and since I don't have similar eyeshadow colors in my collection (schooker), it was an easy pick. 


MeMeMe Trio - 04 Desire Eyes
Tokrat ocenjujem novo blagovno znamko, ki je do zdaj še nisem poskusila. Ta je MeMeMe za katero sem slišala le preko nekaterih pritanskih Lepotnih vloggerjev.
Prejšnji mesec Anja iz Moja Drogerija (klik), nam je dala na izbiro za oceno quad ali trio senčk te blagovne znamke in sem se odločila, da si izberem odtenek 04 Desire Eyes.
Ta odtenek me je zelo privlačil, ker so me zelene barve spomnile na jesen in ker nimam podobnega odtenka v moji kolekciji, je bila izbira lahka.

So lets dig into the details :)
Torej, gremo k podrobnostim :)

Packaging:
The shadows are in a round black container with a seethhrough lid which has the name of the brand on it (as you can see in the pictures).It reminds me a lot of MAC packaging (judging from pictures) and that excites me a lot. I also like that you can easily see the colors through the lid and I like that it closes well and securly.
Pakiranje:
Senčke so v okrogli črni posodi s prozornim pokrovom, ki ima na njem ime blagovne znamke (kot lahko vidite na slikah).
Spominja me na MAC embalaže (sodeč po slikah), kar me je navdušilo še bolj. Všeč mi je tudi, da lahko enostavno vidimo barve skozi pokrov. Pravtako pa da se dobro in varno zapre. 

Desire Eyes: up close
Enough talking about the outside, we all know real beauty lies on the inside. 
Dovolj govorjenja o zunanjosti, saj vsi vemo, da prava lepota leži v notranjosti.


Eyeshadow colors:
All the eyeshadows are shimmery, the vibrant green though is a little less. The lighter and darker mossy greens have gold reflex to them, where as the vibrant green has more of a golden green reflex. 
Barve senčil :
Vse senčila imajo "shimmer finiš", medtem ko živahno zeleni odtenek malo manj. Prva dva odtenka imajo zlati refleks, živahno zelena pa bolj zeleno-zlati refleks.

Application:
I love the formula of these eyeshadow. I found it very easy to apply them. You can blend them to get a more settle smokey look or build them up to get a more night out and sexy smokey eye. I also noticed that there wasn't as much fall out as there usually is with other eyeshadows I often use, and that was a plus. 




Nanos:
Obožujem formulo teh senčil. Ugotovila sem, da je nanos zelo enostaven. Zelo lahko se jih zabriše, da bi dobili bolj vsakodnevni Smokey, pravtako se da pigmentacijo dodajati, da bi dobili večern in seksi Smokey look. Opazila sem tudi, da ni bilo veliko opadanja senčil na licih, kar je velik plus, saj ni potrebno dodatno popravljanje podlage v tem predelu.

Pigmentation:The vibrant green dissapointed me in this aspect, in comparisson to the other two greens which are impressively much more pigmented. And as they say a picture is worth a 1000 words - you can see it all in the picture of the swatches.
Pigmentacija:
Živahno zelena me je razočarala v tem pogledu v primerjavi z drugima dvema, ki sta izjemno pigmentirana. 

In kot pravijo slika je vredna 1000 besed - vse se lepo vidi na slikah spodaj.
Swatch: with primer


Without primer
Staying power:
I used the eyeshadows with different primers and eyeshadow bases and overall I was satisfied with the staying power. The eyeshadows stayed well on my lids, they didn't crease and the colors stayes vibrant.
Obstojnost:
Senčila sem uporabila z različnimi podlagami in kremnimi senčili. Na splošno sem bila zadovoljena z obstojnostjo. 
Senčila so se odlično izkazala na mojih vekah, saj se niso pogreznila v gubice veke. Barve so tudi po nekaj urah ostale živahne.


The look I created

In conclusion if you are looking for a nice eyeshadow trio to carry aroung in your makeup bag, I reccommend you to get this one.

You can find all the different shades if you click this link, which will lead you to Anja's site Moja Drogerija.si where it retails for 8,30€.

Skincare products - Alverde Wild Rose face oil

Hi there :)

First I want to address my irregular blogging. It is a result of being very stressed and overwhelmed with studying, working and juggling it all it's just very time consuming.
I took my time to think about whether I should take a break from blogging, but I just couldn't wrap my mind around the fact of not blogging for a few months. Instead I decided that I'm going to write min. one post a week. I think I could manage that :)

So I thought to myself why not start with a fun little series about skincare. I don't know how to call this new segment/series so if you have any fun ideas for me please leave a comment. :)
But for now it'll be as simple as that - Skincare products.

So lets dig in :)
My skincare changes a lot. I the past 3 years I have managed to try a lot of skincare products. Some of those I've enjoyed and loved and some not so much.

Today I'm going to talk about a product that I discovered recently and just fell in love with it.
It is the Alverde Wild Rose face oil.


I've never tried any of the alverde skincare products and having a discount in DM pursued me to try some. And thank you DM for that.
Since I have dry to combination skin and going into fall and winter my skin gets even dryer, I thought to myself why not try a face oil.

At first I was a little worried that it may leave a lot of oily residue on my skin and that it could give me problems with the foundation application over it as well as with the staying power.
But this product proved me wrong.

The Packaging :
It comes in a little simple bottle and when you unscrew it in has a pippette which gives you control over how much you want to use. And its fun to play drip drop with it.

The product itself:
It looks and feels like an oil when you see it in the bottle and also when you put a drop on your skin. It has a very nice scent, which I love because I love the scent of wild rose. It reminds me of my first lipbalm my granmother bought me as a kid. But if you are not keen of scents like that, I'm afraid you might not like it.
But putting asside the scent, it is a very soothing product that soaks into the skin and smothes it.


The Application :
In the instructions it says that you should apply it on slightly damp cleansed skin and rub it in until it has melted and soaked into your skin completely.
Sometimes I like doing it like so, but mostly I use it no just cleansed and dry skin.
I use about 3-4 drops for my whole face and I rub it in for 1-3 minutes until it looks soaked in and feels smooth.
It leaves a dewy finish to your skin without it being oily when you touch it. It's a remarkable product.

My overall opinion:
It is perfect for people with dry to commbination skin and it comes in very handy for fall and winter months. It has given me moisture just where I need it and my skin is now flake free.

Thank you for reading this post :)
I hope you liked this kind of review or more so a rave :)
Tell me what you think in the comments, I'm always open to feedback :)

Have a nice day,
Dee.
