Jessica Rabbit's Christmas Party Makeup

Hey Beauties!

I got new fake lashes and needed to try them with a full face of makeup. The lashes really demanded that kind of makeup. I didn't even know how to name this look, because it's definitely not really wearable with the lashes and all. It reminded me of Jessica Rabbit, because I've been really enjoying my new hair color, so don't judge my title. :)



I used warm matte brown shade in the crease and a bit up. Then I added taupe matte shade in the crease. To further darken the outer corner, I used black eye shadow and put it in the crease and outer v. 


I mixed copper and peach shimmer shades and put it on the center of the lid. Then I used my liquid eye shadow in gold and put it all over the center of the lid and a bit up in the inner corner. I put matte white shade in the inner corner of the eye and then went over with that same liquid gold shade. 


I used warm matte brown shade all over the lower lash line. This time, I decided to just add subtle line around the lower lash line. The wing wouldn't sit nice with those bambi huge fake lashes. I added mascara and then false eyelashes. 




 For the face I did my usual bronzer  and highlighter. I used red based peach blush and dark red lipstick.




I guess the look can be worn without the fake eyelashes and it can be a nice going out makeup look. You can also pair it with nude lips to tone it down. I hope you liked it. Let me know what would you call this look?

Review: Maybelline Color Tattoo 24hr (05 Eternal Gold)

Hey Beauties!

You know my love for Maybelline Color Tattoos. They are a great cream base for eye shadows and they last a really long time. So it comes as no surprise, that I've added another shade to my collection. This is gonna be quick review for all of you who are also loving their tattoos and maybe wanna invest in another shade.


It's a very heavy sturdy glass packaging with plastic top. The shade is called 05 Eternal Gold.  It doesn't says on the packaging how much is in it, but trust me, it's a lot. They cost around 5€ in our country, but I can't remember for how much I bought this one in Germany, but I think it was a bit more expensive. I haven't seen this shade in Slovenia. 


The shade 05 Eternal Gold is actually very yellow gold. The texture seems very similar to 70 Metallic Pomegranate, which is not my favorite texture. It's actually pretty sheer and you can build it up to a more opaque finish. I find waiting the layers to dry, does the trick. It's also great as a base for gold eye shadows. I find that this one does crease a bit quicker than On and On Bronze, which lasts all day on me.



You can see how it looks like on the eyes. I love the shade and I know it's gonna be a great base for many eye shadows. 



If you like that kind of shade, go for it. But as far as the texture and pigmentation goes On and On Bronze is still my favorite. So, if you haven't tried any - try that one first.

Hair products haul

Hey Beauties!

My hair products were on its last breath, so I decided I need to take advantage of some deals that are going around on various web shops these days and refill my stock. I actually got a really good deal on Lookfantastic, where the prices for some high end hair products are amazing. I also repurchased one of my favorite conditioners on Iherb and I also added a new addition from Avon. I've decided to go a bit more orange with my hair color, so I know I need good products, because hair color does make my hair very dry and damaged.


I've already tried some products from Joico's regular K-Pak range and loved it. This time, I decided to try shampoo and conditioner from their K-Pak Color Therapy range. It's more geared towards colored hair. The K-Pak range it's for damaged hair, which needs that additional protein. Color Therapy range also helps to protect your hair color. I've used shampoo and conditioner once and loved the smell and how soft my hair were. No tangles and really nourished hair.

Shampoo contains 300 ml and costs around 14€ and conditioner also contains 300 ml and costs around 15€. 


With this festive pack of two, I also got this pretty black wash bag with gold stars.


Lately, I've also had a feeling like my hair was not really being washed. You know when you wash your hair and it feels like it's greasy the same day? That's how I felt with my hair. I have oily roots and very dry ends. So, I decided to purchase clarifying shampoo from Joico's K-Pak range. It's supposed to deeply clean your hair. I've tried it once and haven't found that much of a difference, but I need to try it more to make my opinion on it. I did like the fact that hair was soft and didn't feel dry.

It contains 300 ml and costs around 14€. (Sorry, I forgot to include this one on my groupie photo:) ).


From Iherb I also repurchased one of my favorite conditioners. This is more of a healthy natural choice for those who are looking for something like this. It's Acure Moroccan Argan Stem Cell + Argan Oil conditioner. I've tried another natural conditioner and didn't like it at all, so I decided to get back to this one. It just makes the hair so much more moisturized and healthy looking. I already reviewed it here.

It contains 235 ml and costs around 7€.


I also decided to try my first ever Kerastase hair mask. I decided to go for their Resistance range, which is more for damaged hair, which mine are. It's called Kerastase Resistance Masque Force Architecte. I've read some good reviews about it. It's suppose to be a reconstructing mask that intensely replenishes brittle and damaged hair. I haven't tried it yet, so I can't report my first impressions of it. 

It contains 200 ml of product and costs around 28€.


I've also wanted some leave-in products. I do have two of Kerastase thermo masks, but I wanted something that looked more like an oil or serum. This Kerastase Reflection Fluide Chroma Riche is for dry highlighted or color-treated hair. It should basically detangle the hair, make it looks more shiny and protect the color. I've tried it once and wow. My hair felt really soft and shiny. Plus I didn't have those naughty knots that I always get after drying the hair and washing it.

It contains 125 ml and costs around 20€.


I've also added another hair oil for my hair. It's from Avon called Advanced Techniques Moroccan Oil. This oil is supposed to nourish the hair and make them smooth. I've only tried it once and I liked the fact that it wasn't too greasy for my fine hair. I also love the smell of it. It's sort of a typical Avon bubble gum smell. 

It contains 30 ml and costs between 3.50 - 6.50€ (depending on offers).


Kerastase and Joico are my favorite high end or even luxury brands for hair. The products are pretty expensive, but you definitely get a good product for that price. I haven't tried anything from those two brands, that I wouldn't like. I definitely advise you to find the range suited for your hair and try some products, if you have a chance. Acure conditioner is one of the best choices for dry hair if you're looking for a more natural product. Avon oil seems very popular and I'll need to try it a bit more to decided if I recommend it to you.

Review: P2 Glow Up! Highlighter Eyes + Cheeks (021 High Beam)

Hey Beauties!

I have another review of P2 product, which instead of nail polish, I really like. Of course, partially I may be subjective, because it is a highlighter and you know me and my highlighters. I do love them. This one is no exception.

Danes imam spet oceno enega izmed P2 izdelkov, ki mi je za razliko od laka zelo všeč. Seveda sem delno subjektivna pri oceni, ker gre za osvetljevalec in če me poznate, veste da imam obsesijo z osvetljevalci. Obožujem jih in ta ni izjema. 


P2 highlighter costs around 4.49€ in Slovenia and it contains 3 grams of product. I got it in the shade 021 High Beam. The packaging is plastic and it seems pretty secure. I like the fact that it's small - great size for carrying around. 

Cena P2 osvetljevalca v Sloveniji je 4.49€ in vsebuje 3 grame izdelka. Jaz sem si izbrala odtenek 021 High Beam. Embalaža izdelka je plastična in zdi se kar dobro trdna. Všeč mi je velikost emabalaže - odlična za nošenje s sabo.


P2 highlighter in the shade 021 High Beam is an interesting shade. Unfortunately, my camera refused to pick up those little sheen nuances. First of all the formula seems really sheer, which means it's not in your face highlighter. That doesn't mean it's not pigmented, it just sits sheer on the skin, which is pretty nice. It makes for a very subtle highlighter, that still let's your skin tone shine through it. As for the shade, it looks totally light pink in the packaging. However, once applied it seems to be a mix of rose and gold shimmer. It's hard to describe, but it has a pink shine to it, which is not just a regular pink highlighter, because it also had golden sheen in it. Rather interesting shade. If you pair it with pink makeup, it looks more pink, whereas if you pair it with more gold shade it looks gold. 

P2 osvetljevalec v odtenku 021 High Beam je zelo zanimivega odtenka. Na žalost, moj fotoaparat noče ujeti male nianse tega sijaja. Formula se zdi veliko bolj transparentna, kar pomeni, da ta osvetljevalec vsekakor ne izgleda preveč vpadljiv. To ne pomeni, da ni pigmentiran, ampak da je veliko bolj prozoren na koži, kar je čudovito. Je zelo neopazen osvetljevalec, ki dovoli koži, da se vidi skozi. Kar se tiče odtenka, izgleda v emabalaži popolnoma svetlo roza. Ko pa se ga nanese, izgleda kot mešanica roza in zlatega šimerja. Težko ga opišem, ampak izgleda tako kot da ima roza sijaj, ki pa ni samo navaden roza osvetljevalec, ampak ima tudi zlat sijaj. Kar zanimiv odtenek. Če ga uporabim zraven roza makeupa, izgleda bolj roza, če ga uporabim zraven bolj zlatega makeupa, deluje bolj zlato.

It's definitely one of those versatile shades. This shade would look really nice on cool tones, because of the pink in it and it also looks good on warm skin tone, because of the gold shimmer. I've been wearing it a lot, because I really like how it looks. 

Je zagotovo zelo vsestranski odtenek. Izgledal bo super na tistih s hladnim podtonom kože, zaradi zlatega sijaja, kot tudi na tistih z toplim podtonom kože, zaradi zlatega sijaja. Jaz sem ga nosila zelo pogosta od kar ga imam, ker mi je res všeč kako izgleda na koži.


It's powdery and glides on like a dream. Very pigmented and the shimmer is just big enough to give you that nice glow, but not make you look shimmery. 

Je pudrast in nanaša se z lahkoto. Je zelo pigmentiran in bleščice oz. šimer je ravno dovolj velik, da daje lep sijaj, ki pa ne izgleda preveč bleščičasto. 


I decided to compare it to two of my favorite highlighters, just to give you some idea of what I'm talking about. The first from left is Terra Naturi Shimmer Powder in 01 Golden Highlight, second is P2 highlighter and the third is Essence Metal Glam highlighter in 01 Gold Digger. As you can se the Terra Naturi is more orange gold, P2 has that pink sheen and Essence looks the most champagne gold. Terra Naturi also has the smallest shimmer possible. P2 has a bit bigger shimmer and Essence looks the most shimmery with even bigger shimmer. P2 also looks the most sheer on my skin.

Odločila sem se, da ga bom primerjala z dvema mojima najljubšima osvetljevalca, da dobite idejo o čem govorim. Prvi od leve je Terra Naturi Shimmer Powder v odtenku 01 Golden Highlight, drugi je P2 osvetljevalec in tretji je Essence Metal Glam highlighter v odtenku 01 Gold Digger. Kot lahko vidite, je Terra Naturi bolj oranžno zlat, P2 ima ta roza sijaj in Essence izgleda najbolj šampanjasto zlat. Terra Naturi ima tudi najmanjši šimer. P2 ima že večji šimer in Essence izgleda najbolj bleščeče in ima še večji šimer. P2 prav tako izgleda veliko bolj prozoren na koži, od ostalih. 


Here you can see how beautiful it looks on the skin. I just love that sheen on the cheeks and the shimmer in it is just the perfect size. Now I only wish I won't use it up too fast. It looks very subtle on my skin, but you can definitely build up the intensity by applying more. It's called eyes and cheeks, so it can be used as an eyeshadow as well. You can also see how it looks like on the eyelids.

Tukaj lahko vidite kako čudovito izgleda na koži. Zelo mi je všeč sijaj na licih in dejstvo, da so bleščice ravno perfektne velikosti. Zdaj si samo želim, da ga ne bom prehitro porabila. Deluje zelo subtilno na koži, ampak seveda se da intenziteto povečati tako, da se doda več osvetljevalca. Imenuje se oči in lica, torej se lahko uporablja tudi kot senčilo. Vidite lahko tudi kako izgleda na vekah.




This highlighter was on my wish list as soon as I saw it on the internet and I'm so glad that Mojadrogerija.si gave me a chance to try it, since there isn't P2 brand in our DMs. I highly recommend this highlighter. It's subtle enough, yet adds a beautiful mutli shine. Because of the mixture of gold and pink this will appeal to those with warm and those with cool skin tone. If somehow this shade still doesn't appeal to you, there are two more shades in the range. One seems to be a bit more white and the other a bit more pink. 

Ta osvetljevalec je bil na mojem seznamu želja odkar sem ga videla na internetu in sem vedela, da mi je Mojadrogerija.si dala priložnost da ga preizkusim. Sploh glede na to, da P2 znamke ni v naših DM-ih. Vsekakor ga priporočam. Je subtilen dovolj, a vseeno doda čudovit multi sijaj. Zaradi mešanice zlatega in roza bo všeč tako tistim z toplim tonom kože, kot tistim z hladnim tonom.  Kupite ga lahko tukaj. Če pa vam ta odtenek vseeno ni všeč, obstajata še dva odtenka v kolekciji. En izgleda bolj kot ne bel, drug pa bolj roza.
