Kijac at 7 am!

Hey!
Baš sam se neki dan probudila u 6 ujutro i nikako nisam mogla zaspati. Nakon nekog vremena sam se digla i krenula slikati svoje malo mjesto. Kako već dugo vam nisam pokazala neke random slike koje sam ja slikala, odlučila sam podjeliti ove sa vama :) Nadam se da ćete uživati!
Just the other day I woke up at 6 am and I couldn't get back to sleep. After some time I got up and started taking pictures of my little village. It's been a while since I've shown you some of mine random pics, I decided to share these with you :) I hope you'll enjoy!

Review: Wet'n'wild eye shadow trio - Knock on wood!

Hey!
Danas vam donosim jednu recenziju dok čekam da mi se ohlade moji sladoledni sendviči! :)  Ovu paleticu sam kupila nedavno jer sam poželjela neko dobro svijetlo rozo sjenilo a jesam li ga pronašla u njoj saznat ćete ako nastavite čitati ;P
Today I'm bringing you a review while I'm waiting for my ice cream sandwiches to cool off! :)  I bought this palette not so long ago because I've been wanting a good light pink eye shadow and have I found it in her you'll know only if you continue reading ;P



Ok, započnimo sa pakiranjem! Sjenila dolaze u pakiranju koje taman stane u moj dlan, lijepe je crne boje sa prozirnim poklopcem da vidite točno kakve su nijanse i srednje čvrstoće. Pretpostavljam da bi paletica izdržala pad s neke manje visine ali to nisam testirala :P Paleta se lagano otvara i prije prvog otvaranja morate ukloniti zaštitnu naljepnicu sa poklopca koja vam garantira da nitko nije gurao prste u paletu prije vas.
Ok, let's start with packing! Eye shadows come in packing that fits into your arm nicely, it's in black color with see through lid so you can see exactly what shades are in it and it's kinda sturdy. I assume that the palette would survive a fall from a minor height but I didn't tested it out :P You can easily open the palette and before your first use of it you have to remove the protective sticker that guarantees that nobody stuck its fingers in it before you did.



Na poleđini pakiranja piše naziv linije u kojoj je paleta izašla te one obične stvari poput količine (3.5 g). Također, prikazana je i slika make up looka gdje su sjenila korištena točno gdje treba. Na sjenilima je utisnut naziv područja na koje bi se ona trebala nanositi. Tako na svijetlo rozom sjenilu stoji natpis 'browbone' odnosno kost ispod obrve, na smeđem piše 'crease' odnosno dio kapka u kojem se koža preklapa i na ljubičastom 'eyelid' što označava cijeli kapak.
On the back side of the palette it says the name of the edition and all those usual things like quantity (3.5 g).
Also, there is a picture of a make up look where those eye shadows were used together. On the eye shadows is written the name of the area where you should apply them. On the pink one is written 'browbone', on the brown one is 'crease' and on the purple one is 'eyelid'.


Sva sjenila su shimmerasta, čak i ljubičasto iako se tako ne čini na prvi pogled.
Osim sjenila u paleti dolaze i dva kistića, jedan je koso rezani a drugi je običan aplikator. Ne bih njihovo korištenje nikome preporučila, vidjet ćete i same na slici zašto (zapravo, nećete ništa vidjeti).
All of the eye shadows are shimmery, even the purple one although it doesn't look like that.
Beside eye shadows, you get two brushes, one is cut diagonally and the other one is a regular applicator. I wouldn't recommend using them to anyone, you'll see why on the pic (actually, you won't see anything).

Vidite li vi išta na desnoj slici? Ni ja.. / Do you see anything on the right picture? Me neither..

No nemojte se prepasti, paleta nije tako loša. Na sljedećim slikama sam nanosila sjenila sa svojim Essence kistovima i izgledaju sasvim solidno. Zamjerka je što se dosta truse pa sam svijetlo rozo sjenilo nanijela 4 puta da dobijem nekakvu vidljivu boju! Iako sam ovu paleticu kupila zbog rozog sjenila koje me najviše razočaralo, ostala sjenila su zbilja dobra, dugo traju i bez baze, boje su divne i lagano se blendaju te zato preporučujem ovu paleticu. Barem nekome tko ima malo manje novaca ili je početnik u make upu. Cijena palete je 34 kn u dm-u.
Still, don't be scared, the palette is not that bad. On next pictures I applied the eye shadows with my Essence brushes and they look solid. I don't like the fact they dust off so much so I had to reapply pink one 4 times to get a visible color! Even though I bought this palette for the pink eye shadow that disappointed me
the most, other shades are really good, they last long even without the base, colors are lovely and they are easy to blend. So, I'd recommend this palette at least to someone who has a bit less budget or is a begginer in make up. The price is 5 eu in dm.

Slikano u hladu i na suncu gdje je shimmer više vidljiv. / Pictures taken in shade and in sun where shimmer is more visible.

To je sve za danas drage moje! Nadam se da ste uživale čitajući ovu recenziju i ako želite neki make up look sa paletom recite mi u komentaru! Nisam stručnjak ali dat ću sve od sebe :D
Hvala na čitanju!
That is it for today my dears! I hope you enjoyed reading this review and if you want to see a make upp look with this palette tell me in the comments! I'm not an expert but I'll do my best :D
Thanks for reading!

DIY: Diamond wall accents!

Hey!
Prije nekoliko tjedana me ulovila želja da iskoristim svoj zlatni sprej za neki DIY i uz malo pomoći sa bloga I SPY DIY rođen je ovaj jednostavan i lagan DIY!
A few weeks ago I got a desire to use my gold spray for a DIY and with a little help from a blog called I SPY DIY  I created this simple and easy DIY!



Koristila sam / I used:
zlatni sprej / gold spray
izolir traka / duct tape
novine ili bilo kakvi papiri / newspaper or any other paper


Evo kako je izgledao zid prije: / Here is how the wall looked before:



1. Odaberite koji uzorak želite na zidu i naljepite izolir traku oblikujući ga.
    Pick a design you want to put on your wall and duct tape its shape (oh, look at that, a little rhyme :D)



2. Zaštitite okolno područje novinama i papirima da vam sprej ne pobjegne negdje na zid. Ovo sad izgleda smješno ali ja stvarno nisam htjela pogreške :)
    Protect your walls with newspaper and other papers so you don't get your spray everywhere. This may look ridiculous but I really didn't want any mistakes :)



3. Nakon što nasprejate svoje dijamante (ili nešto drugo) pažljivo uklonite papire i izolirku sa zida. Gotove ste i uživajte u novom masterpiecu! :D
    After you sprayed your diamonds (or any other design) remove papers and tape carefully. You're done and enjoy in your new masterpiece! :D




Nažalost, ja sam malo zasrala stvar pa je boja ipak uspjela ući ispod izolirke no stvarno se ne vidi tako jako ;) Što vi mislite? Volite li ovakve kratke i slatke projektiće i postove? :)
Unfortunately, I kinda messed up so the paint still managed to pour under the tape but it's not that bad ;) What do you think? Do you like these short and sweet projects and posts? :)


Hvala na čitanju! / Thanks for reading!

Tribal with a twist!

Heyaa!
Kao što zaključujete iz naslova, pred vama je još jedan tribal. Što mogu kad stvarno volim takve manikure :D  I ovaj put sam ga napravila malo drugačije, ispao je više ljetni i random nego inače :)
As you can tell from the title, in front of you is another tribal. What can I do, I really love 'em :D This time I did it a bit different as well, it turned out a bit more Summery and random then usually :)


Koristila sam / I used:
China Glaze Too yacht to handle
                   White on white
                    Liquid leather
Golden Rose tip painters 103, 115
thin brush & dotting tool




Kao što vidite, radila sam totalno čudan uzorak, onako napamet ali je slatko ispalo! Igrala sam na provjerenu kombinaciju neon boja i crne i bijele. Za divan sjaj krivim moj najdraži Essence Better than gel nails TC :D
As you can tell, I did a really weird design, completely from my head but it turned out cute! I played safe and used neons, white and black. For the amazing shine, I blame my all time fave Essence Better than gel nails TC :D



Volite li i vi tribal uzorak? Hvala na čitanju!

Sunkissed Summer tag!

Hey!
Baš nekidan sam kod Mie vidjela ovaj zanimljiv tag i odlučila ga napraviti na mom blogu! Radi se, naravno, o ljetu i sastoji se od 15 pitanja pa, krenimo! :D
Just the other day I saw this interesting tag at Mia's blog and I decided to do it on my blog! It's about, duhh, Summer and it consists of 15 questions so, let's go! :D

2. Beaches or Pools?

Iako obožavam plaže bojim se dubina pa radije biram bazene, šta je sigurno, je sigurno :D / Even though I love beaches I'm afraid of deep sea so I'd rather choose a pool.



3. Are you going on any summer vacations? If not, what's your dream summer vacation?

S obzirom da ja živim na mjestu gdje ljudi dolaze na odmore, nikad nisam išla na neki drugi odmor.

4. S'mores or Ice Cream?

Sladoled. Oduvijek i zauvijek <3 :) / Ice cream. Forever and ever <3 :)

6. Does your skin tan or burn?

O hohoho, ja svake godine dobro izgorim i onda se to kroz tjedan dana pretvori u divnu, tamnu boju :D / O hohoho, every year I burn really bad and then through a week it turns into a nice, dark tan :D



7. How do you wear your hair in the summer? (down, ponytail, ombre, dip dye, etc.)

Većinu vremena je raspuštena a ako je jako vruće napravim rep ili punđu, za sve ostalo sam prelijena :D / Most of the time it's down but if it's really hot I will put it in a pony tail or a bun, I'm too lazy for anything else :D



8. Favorite summer nail polish?

Svi neonski su mi divni a izdvojila bih: China Glaze To yacht too handle, China Glaze Flip flop fantasy, Anny Surfing crocodile i Essie Fiji :) / Well, all neons are gorgeous but I would pick out: China Glaze To yacht too handle, China Glaze Flip flop fantasy, Anny Surfing crocodile i Essie Fiji :)


9. Would you rather spend a summer day outside in the pool or inside watching Netflix?

Uvijek bih radije bila vani jer tako lakše podnosim vrućinu. / I'd always choose being out because it's easier for me to stand the heat.

Naočalice :) / Sunnies :)


11. What is YOUR song of the summer?




12. Do you have a summer bucket list? If so, share some things on the list.

13. Bikinis, Tankinis, or One Pieces?

Bikiniji, totalno :) / Bikinis, all the way :)

Neki dobar balzam za usne i vodootporna maskara (za izlaske). / A good lip balm and waterproof mascara (for going out).


15. What's your favorite thing about summer?

Nema stresa, vidim se sa svim prijateljima, sve je opušteno, imam vremena za sve što volim, mogu puno roniti, lista ide u nedogled.. :)  /  No stress, I get to see all of my friends, everything is relaxed, I have time for things I love, I can dive a lot, list goes on and on.. :)



                                                                     *                *

Lilacism!

Hola peeps!
Danas ću vam pokazati dvije manikure u kojima je glavna zvijezda Essie Lilacism, otuda i naslov :)
Today I'll show you two manicures that are featuring Essie Lilacism, hence the title :)


Koristila sam / I used:
Essie Lilacism
Essence Magic wand
striping tape



Ova je manikura bila za J., ženu od mog brata i htjela je nešto jednostavno i ljubičasto. Na accent noktu sam koristila metalik lila boju, J. ju obožava ali je meni odvratna :D  Na ostalim notima sam iskoristila striping tape i okomito ga ljepila. Začudilo me koliko se divno striping tape presijava i miriši po grožđu :D
This mani was for J., my sister in law and she wanted something simple and purple. On her accent nail I used metallic lilac color, J. loves it but I think it's horrible :D  On other nails I used striping tape and glued it vertically . I was surprised how lovely and shiny striping tape looks and it smells like grape :D

                                                                               *     *

Koristila sam / I used:
Essie Lilacism
Essence Carrie




Ova manikura je ispala pomalo Valentinovska haha
U svakom slučaju, baš mi je slatka i sviđa mi se kako se Lilacism jako sjaji na ovim fotkama. Carrie je divan šljokičasti lak sa puno kvadratnih šljokica u rozim tonovima i sitnim holografskim glitterom.
This mani kinda turned out Valentines day-ish haha
Anyway, I think it's cute and I like how Lilacims is really shiny on these pics. Carrie is a lovely glittery polish that consists of lots of square glitter in pink shades and tiny holographic glitter.




To su moje lilaste manikure! Nadam se da vam se sviđaju i hvala na čitanju!
These were my lilac manicures! I hope you like them and thanks for reading!

Empties #1!

Hey!
Da ste mi pred godinu dana predložile da napišem ovaj post, nasmijala bih se i rekla ''ja nikad ne iskoristim stvari do kraja''. Možda zvuči razmaženo ali stvarno, koliko god se trudila uvijek kada bih bacila neku bočicu osjećala bih se krivom jer unutra ima sigurno još neka kapljica. Tako sam prošlu jesen shvatila da kupujem sve više stvari ali da ne iskoristim one koje imam doma do kraja nego se zatrpavam. Ja, kao najveći fan urednosti i organiziranja, morala sam to nekako riješiti pa sam si postavila jednostavno pravilo: svaki proizvod koji imam moram iskoristiti, čak i ako mi postane dosadan i poželim novi. Tek kada ispraznim bočicu nekog parfema, labella ili laka, mogu početi sanjariti o novome. Možete pogoditi kojoj od tih stvari sam najmanje mogla odoljeti :D  Naravno, lakove sam nastavila kupovati ali u puno manjoj mjeri, šljokice ne kupujem osim ako nisu bog zna kako posebne jer i ove što imam jedva koristim. Zapravo, povlačim to! Ovo proljeće sam jako često nosila šljokice barem kao accent nokat. Ostale boje bih kupila jedino ako bi mi jako trebale za nail art ili su boja i finiš nešto extra. I uspjela sam! Smanjila sam broj lakova na 80-ak i stvarno, najstvarnije, sve ih koristim. Rješila sam i nekoliko parfema i labela. I taman kad sam htjela baciti ih u smeće sjetim se; pa mogla bi ih sačuvati za empties post!
Pa evo, nakon (pre)dugačkog uvoda pogledajte koje sam to proizvode iscrpila i jesu li mi se svidjeli! :D
If you asked me one year to write this post I would laugh and say ''I never use up anything''. It might sound spoiled but really, every time I would throw away a bottle or something, I would feel guilty because there was a drop or two of the product inside. Last Fall I realized that I'm buying more and more things but I wasn't using those that I already had. I was starting to hoard things. I, as a biggest cleaning and organizing fan, had to find a solution for that so I made a simple rule: every product I own I have to use up, even if it becomes boring to me and I start wishing for new. Then, when I empty a bottle of a perfume, labello or a nail polish, I can wish for a new one. You can guess which of those things was hardest for me to resist buying :D  Of course, I kept buying polishes but not that much. I'm buying glitters only if they are really special and basic polishes only if I run out of some color and I need it for nail art. And I did it! I managed to get my nail polish collection down to 80-ish bottles and I really do use all of them. I also emptied a couple of perfumes and labellos. And just when I wanted to throw them in trash, I remembered; I could save them and write an empties post!
So, after this (too) long introduction check out what products I emptied and have I liked them! :D



Aveo deospray - maleni dezić koji mi je odličan za nosit u školu. Osim ovog sa orhidejom, probala sam i onaj koji ne pušta tragove na bijeloj i crnoj boji i super su! Fino mirišu, traju 3-4 sata (što je okej jer ionako se moram više puta nasprejati tokom dana), praktični su i jeftini. Kupujem ih u Mulleru za 4,50 kune na odjelu sa stvarima za putovanje, jer je ovo travel pack. Traje mi oko mjesec i pol, često kraće jer ga okolo posudim :D sve u svemu, opet ga kupujem jer se isplati!
                         - a small deodorant that is great for my school bag. Except this orchidee one, I tried the one that decreases trails on white and black color and they are great! They smell nice, they last for 3-4 hours (which is ok since I spray myself a couple of times during the day), they are practical and cheap. I buy them in Muller for 0,5 eu on traveling sections because they are in travel size. It lasts for a month and a half, usually less because I let my friends use it :D all in all, it's worth every penny and I'm buying it again!

Trendy for women - ovaj parfem je imitacija nekog Guccijevog parfema kupljen za pedeset kuna u Golden Roseu u Rijeci. Jako je fino mirisao ali se zadržavao na koži jako kratko. Na meni i inače parfemi ne traju dugo ali brate, ovaj bi ishlapio na moj prvi pomak rukom :D Stoga ga ne kupujem opet!
                             - this perfume is a Gucci imitation bought in Golden Rose store in Rijeka for 7 eu. It smelled really nice but it wasn't very long lasting. I mean, perfumes usually don't last that long on me but man, I waved with my hand once and the smell was gone :D So, I'm definitely not buying it again!

j'taime - parfem koji mi je poklonila najfrendica pred 4-5 godina. Moj najdraži parfem uz jedan essencov! Tako je predivno mirisao, nježno i posebno, baš kako ja volim. Nikad ga nisam vidjela u trgovinama i zato ako itko zna gdje ga mogu opet kupiti brzo u komentare i to mi otkrijte!! :D
          - a perfume my bff gave to me 4-5 years ago. My fave perfume beside essence one! It smelled so beautiful, soft and special, just the way I like it. I never seen it in stores so if you know where I can find it go fast in the comment section and tell me!! :D

Essence like a walk in the Summer rain - još jedan favorit! Za 27 kuna dobijete 10 ml divotice od parfema. Da sad se tu ne sramotim sa opisivanjem našla sam na jednoj stranici odličan opis - miris koji osvježava poput ljetnjeg pljuska. Čist je, vodenast i svjež – pun pozitivne energije. Gornje note: limun, naranča, ciklama, aldehidi i lubenica. Srce: morske note, đurđevak, frezija i cvjetno - ozonski akordi. Baza: mahovina, kedar i mošus. Ponovna kupnja je sigurna!
                                                           - another favorite! For 3,5 eu you get 10 ml of pure beauty. I don't want to embarrass myself with describing it so I found a great description on one page - fragrance that refreshes like a summer rain shower. Pure, aquatic and invigorating – it is full of positive energy. Top notes: lemon, orange, cyclamen, aldehyde and watermelon. Heart: marine notes, lily of the valley, freesia and floral -ozonic accords. Base: moss, cedar and musk. My repurchase is guaranteed!


Essence 2in1 volume mascara - moja prva maskara!! Potrošila sam ju do zadnje kapljice i zaista je bila dobra. Čini mi se da ju više nemaju u stalnoj postavi nego da je sad neka u crveno-crnom pakiranju.
                                                     - my first mascara!! I spent every drop of it and it really was good. I think that it isn't available anymore but you can get a similar one in red-black packing.

Balea lipbalms - jeftini i dobri, šta ti više treba! Jedan košta 8,90 kn i dolaze u raznim okusima. Meni je najdraži ovaj obični jer mi je odlično štitio usne preko zime od hladnoće i dugo bi trajao. Kupujem opet!
                       - cheap and good, what more could you ask for! One costs 1 eu and they come in various tastes. I prefer the sensitive one because it really moisturized my lips during Winter and it would last long. I'm buying it again!


Essence Better than gel nails top coat - vjerojatno ste već čule koliko je odličan ovaj nadlak. I slažem se u svakom pogledu, jako brzo se suši, cijena je super (22kn) i nokti dugo traju i izgledaju savršeno! Ako ga do sada niste probale, nadam se da će vas ova mini recenzijica potaknuti jer mi je ovo sigurno peta bočica :D
                                                        -  you probably already heard how amazing this TC is. And I couldn't agree more, it dries super fast, price is great (3eu) and manis last for a long time while looking perfect! If you haven't tried it until now I hope that this mini review will make you buy it 'cause this is probably my fifth bottle :D

Essence pro white nail hardener - kada sam kupila ovu bazu bila sam ugodno iznenađena jer stvarno čuva bjelinu noktiju i očvršćuje ih. Nažalost, jako brzo se zgusne i četkica je pre tanka za moj ukus pa ga ipak ne bih preporučila.
                                                - when I first bought this base coat I was pleasantly surprised because it really does protect your nails and it makes them stronger. Unfortunately, it thickens really quick and the brush is too thin for my taste so I wouldn't recommend it after all.



Glade Winter candle Shimmering woods - ok, zamislite savršen zimski miris koji u vama budi najljepše uspomene! Jeste? E pa ova svijeća je još bolja, bez pretjerivanja :D  Divan miris borovine pomalo zaslađen vanilijom mogao se namirisati cijele zime u mojoj sobi. Koliko sam ju obožavala dokazuje i to da je ovo prva svijeća koju sam do kraja potrošila! Naravno da ću je opet kupiti, vjerojatno u dm kada bude snižena krajem jeseni ;)
                                                              - ok, imagine a perfect Wintery scent that brings all beautiful memories in you! Did you? Well, this candle is even better, I kid you not :D  Lovely pine smell is sweetened a bit with vanilla and you could smell it every day in my room during the Winter. How much I loved it proves the fact that this is the first candle I ever emptied out completely! Of course I'm buying it again, probs in dm when it goes on Fall/Winter sale ;)

                                                                             *   *   *


Pa, to bi bilo sve za danas! Ovo je bio poveći post i pišem ga već par dana pa se nadam da ćete uživati u njemu :)  Hvala na čitanju!
Well, that would be all for today! This was a bigger post and I'v been writing it for a few days so I hope you'll enjoy it :)  Thanks for reading!
