10 products worth the money

1. Avon Perfect Kiss Lipstick (the price varies in Avon catalog-it’s now 8 €). This is the best hydrating lipstick I own. All the other lipsticks dry or don’t have good color payoff. But this lipstick stays hydrated.  It feels like you have on Vaseline or some sort of butter chopstick. It’s probably because it is made out of avocado and coconut oil. The color range is pretty big. It has a lot of reds, plums, pinks, burgundies and some neutral shades. Some of the shades are really pigmented, some less. The range is probably not for someone who likes simple, natural looking lipsticks. Although there is one shade called Natural Glow-and that is the one on the photo below. I bought a lot of testers of other colors. And I love them all. But this one is on my daily basis.



2. Essence Stay With Me Longlasting Lip Gloss (don’t remember, around 2.5 €). This is the lip gloss that feels really nice on my lips. It is one of those that make your lips really juicy looking and it doesn't dry your lips or make them feel itchy or dry afterwards. It is in my opinion a really nice simple lip gloss, that doesn’t have some of the annoying after effects-like stained lips or chipped, dry lips. I just wish they would have a bigger range. I personally would love some brown, nude colors in the range. But they have mostly reds and pinks. I have it in shade My Favorite Milkshake.  It’s sort of soft pink.


3. Revlon Colorstay Foundation for Combination to Oily Skin (around 15 €). I like it because it actually stays on for a lot of time and it is somewhat medium to full coverage. It actually doesn't go off easily so be careful if you put it on your hand when applying. The color range is nice and it has even some lighter shades than some of the other brands have. I think it’s a good price for someone that wants a nice coverage foundation and sustainability. Although be careful, because it actually turns a shade or two darker when it oxides on the skin, after a few hours on.

4. Avon Basic Color for Eye Shadow (again it varies in catalog, now it’s 3.90 €). I got this one recently and so far I love it. It’s the best eye primer I've had so far. It comes in only one shade in our country and that is in light beige. The color is pretty much the same as most of light skin tones. It is very creamy, so you need very little of it. It dries to a nice velvet finish and I actually think it makes my eye shadow last a bit longer than all the other primers did. So for the price, this is the best eye primer for me.


5. MUA Undressed Eyeshadow Palette (7.95 €). It is an eye shadow palette that consists of mat and shimmer colors. The colors are variations of neutrals with some brighter colors. I think this palette is great for those that don’t use a lot of eye shadows, or are getting into all that make up stuff. Others will find some nice shades in the palette too.  The colors give a good payoff, but they tend to fall down.  That can be easily fixed. This is supposed to be Urban Decay Naked palette color dupe. I don’t have it, so I can’t say. But I recommend investing in this palette.


6. Avon Supershock Gel Eyeliner (the price varies in catalog, now it’s 4.50 €). This is the SOFTEST eye pencil/gel eyeliner I have ever tried. It goes on like butter. The texture of it is like gel eyeliner, although it is in a pencil form, so you can sharp it. In our country it comes in 4 shades, so far. Shades: black, silver, light pink and blue.  Some of the colors are shimmering, some mat. If you are in the search of really soft eyeliner, than this is the one. I think it is also very good for creating smokey eye. I have colors Flash (light pink) and Black.


7. Look by BIPA Makeup Brushes (powder brush 3.99 €, blusher 2.99 €, eyebrow 1.99 €, kabuki 3.99 €). Those brushes I bought in Austria in shop called BIPA. The brushes are one of the SOFTEST brushes I've had.  For the price, the quality of the hair is amazing for the price. They are really soft. I can’t stress that enough. Obviously the handles aren't the best quality, but I can forget that. They feel very nice on the skin. So I recommend them for everyone who wants a really soft brush at a reasonable (if not cheap) price.


8. Bioderma Sensibio H2O Solution Micellaire (100 ml is 5.46 €). I got this to clean of my eye makeup, because I got very sensitive eyes and even had some medical problems with them. This is the best product for very sensitive eyes. It doesn't have a smell, and it feels like water, so it doesn't irritate eyes at all. My eyes are grateful for this product. It really is a nice sensitive product for all those with sensitive skin or eyes.


9. Redken All Soft Heavy Cream (around 26 €, but there’s always some sort of discount on some online shops).  This is the best hair mask, if you want to have really soft hair. It does what is says. It hydrates hair and makes them feel oh-so-soft after using it. The texture is like a liquid paste and it smells nice. Nothing distinctive, more like some version of vanilla, something like that. I bought it a few months ago and I still have more than half of it. You need very little product to do the job. Plus it feels very hydrating when it’s on hair. One of the ingredients in it is argan oil.


10. Seche Vite Dry Fast Top Coat (prices vary, around 14 €). This is the best top coat, if you like doing any kind of designs on your nails. It makes your nails extra shiny and it dries really fast. Plus you can use it right after drawing the design and it won’t smudge it. This is a must have. It also makes nail polish last a lot longer. The only problem with this top coat is that when you use around half of it, it starts to thicken and it’s not as nice anymore. It gets to the point where it’s really sticky. That can be fixed. The company actually sells a product with it that thins out the nail polish, but you can use pure acetone and it will do the job the same. After that it’s back to being like new. So no problem there J.

    Super post. :)
    Undressed paleta je meni super, ker se da z njo ustvarjati različne looke, od naravnih pa do bolj drznih. :) Od Bipe imam samo čopič za ustnice in mi je super. Glede Essence Stay With Me glosov se tudi strinjam, super so. :D

    Živjo, a lahko (če se še spomniš) napišeš imena odtenkov Avonovih šmink, ki si jih testirala? So mi glosi iz te linije zelo všeč in bi še kakšno šminko probala, sploh odtenek št. 3 in 5 (na tvoji slikici) sta mi fajn

      Hej. Zdaj iz glave ne vem vseh odtenkov, vem da je 5 Natural Glow, 3 pa se mi zdi, da Red Embrace - ampak za tega zadnjega nisem prepričana:).

    Mislim, da si se glede 5 odtenka zmotila, ker ta, ki je meni všeč je bolj roza, mislim pa da je zadnji Natural Glow. Saj je lep, samo dvomim da bi se na mojih bolj rdeče pigmentiranih ustnicah kaj poznal
