Nonique eye cream

Nájsť dobrý očný krém je pre mňa vždy problém. Robia sa mi dehydrované línie, o ktorých si vždy myslím, že protivráskový krém vyrieši, opak je však pravdou a vždy keď nejaký vyskúšam, okolie očí je vysušené.

Ak ste takisto v období svojho života kedy už nie ste tínedžerkou ale ešte nepotrebujete protivráskové zázraky a hľadáte niečo čo okolie očí pekne ukľudní a hydratuje, našla som pre vás skvelý produkt. 

V poslednom období sa snažím kupovať skôr produkty, ktoré sú prírodnejšie. V DM je skvelá časť kde sa dá skutočne vybrať zaujímavé produkty a aj keď sú prírodné, nemusíte zaplatiť niekoľko násobne viacej ako za bežný produkt. V týchto poličkách som našla aj značku Nonique, o ktorej som predtým nepočula. Každý z produktov obsahuje výťažok z ovocia "Noni" (o ktorom som prvýkrát počula od Victoria´s Secret modelke Miranda Kerr, ktorá si nevedela jeho účinky vynachváliť a nakoniec vytvorila svoju značku s jeho výťažkami- Korra organics). Ovocie Noni posilňuje imunitný systém, pomáha pokožke zostať mladou, obsahuje oxid dusnatý, ktorý redukuje rast nádorov a okrem iného obsahuje selén a vitamín C.

Ale teraz už ku krému na oči. Ak sami hľadáte dobré očné krémy a už ste pozerali na rôzne stránky, ľudia si nevedia vynachváliť Kiehl´s Avokádový očný krém (ktorý stojí 30€) a jeho hlavnou zložkou je samozrejme avokádový olej. Nonique očný krém takisto obsahuje avokádo, spomínané noni, aloe vera a olivový olej. Ingrediencie sú skutočne skvelé. Krém je ľahký, ale aj pritom dostatočne hydratačný a výživný. Používam malé množstvo každé ráno a večer a v oblasti očí vidím veľkú zmenu. Pokožka je dostatočne vyživená, pružná a hydratovaná (ale nie príliš mastná, tvorí veľmi dobrý podklad pod makeup). Krém sa dostatočne rýchlo vstrebe, ale pokožka je na povrch vláčna. Za tú cenu, určite jeden z najlepších očných krémov, ktoré som vyskúšala. Vrelo odporúčam. (cena sa pohybuje okolo 6€)

Lancome Hypnose Doll eyes Fraicheur rosée 5 colour palette

I think I will ever have enough of eyeshadows. And I will definitely always go for very similar ones. 

What I love about this palette though is that it is nude palette with having a little bit baby pink and very dark purple shade, which makes it perfect for transformations from day to night looks. 

I had my eye on these for quite a while as the palettes look amazing and I am so pleased with this one. All of the shades are shimmery so if you don't like shimmer, then this will not be for you, but as I am all for shimmer for the eyes this satisfies my needs completely. 

Contains 2 brushes: a double-ended sponge applicator and brush applicator. Both of the applicators actually feel nice, which is surprising for me to even look at them. Normally I don't, I just DON'T use applicators that come with the palettes, but these ones feel very good on the eye and pick up good amount of product to work with. I am impressed buy that:)

You can use the eyeshadow wet or dry, but I like to go dry for a day-time look. If you are after deeper intensity in colour, definitely wet the applicators or brushes first.

Fraicheur rosee Lancome

I created a look only using these shades, eyeliner and mascara. It is quite intense day-time look, but it could be yours evening look if you are more a natural makeup type of person. 

The colours blend easily together, I just have to say that the lightest pink (no.1) doesn't highlight and is not pigmented as I would like, but the champagne and all other shades are giving very nice colour-pay-off. 

Oh, I just love a little bit of sparkle on the eyes:)

The palette is £33.30 here.

Review: Estee Lauder Stress Relief Eye Mask

I am always interested in eye products as I feel my eye are gets dry first, gets tired first, gets old first. Our eye area is actually 10 times thinner than the rest of the face, so it definitely needs a little bit more attention.

I love to go for eye masks, but mostly what I could find on the market was the asian version (and unknown brands). I was looking for something a little bit more luxurious, a brand that you can trust. I found only Estee Lauder and YSL to do such a thing, but YSL eye patches are 8 for £40 as Estee Lauder has 10 packettes for £26. Much more bearable price.

This is what is promised:

"A revitalizing, 10-minute treatment for delicate eye area-the part of our face that shows stress first and more noticeably. Pre-moistened pads hydrate and soothe skin, diminish puffiness and other signs of fatigue, reduce appearance of tiny lines and wrinkles. Contains targeted anti-stress, anti-fatigue hydrating ingredients. Plus botanical soothers like aloe vera and cucumber. Clinical testing shows it improves hydration as much as 40%."

I managed to use most of them and definitely after using I feel much more hydrated in eye area. Skin also looks more refreshed and less tired.

Verdict: I certainly very recommend as everyone needs a little bit of extra care for our under eyes.

Review: Lancome Genifique Light-Pearl eye serum

Hello my lovely ladies,

if I should be honest I have managed to try quite a bit of products these past few months. I changed my skincare routine completely and went for products, brands that I was just a little bit familiar with. That's why I don't even know what to start with.

As I am thinking about it, in my last post I said that Genifique Yeux light-pearl is worth a review. So there you have it.

Before I even start to judge, let me just say that the regular Genifique eye cream was one of the best eye creams I tried. It was actually my first "luxurious" eye cream I have ever purchased. You can imagine it lasted me for ages as I didn't use much of it;)

Ok, Ok, to the subject. Genifique Yeux light-pearl was launched just in 2012, right away I got it hoping  that it will will help with my under-eyes circles. I don't know if you have ever experienced it but sometimes you find that miracle product and when you stop using it, circles are back....ANNOYING!Well, that's what I got with this. I used it with Clinique all about eyes rich as the Genifique is the serum and didn't moisturise enough. But the RESULTS were FENOMENAL. My eye area was brightened, with the specific metal applicator I got very soothing and gentle massage.

The biggest downside was how long it lasted. It felt like I used it for a month or so and it was gone. For the price, no thank you. (retails for £44)

Don't get me wrong, it is a fabulous miracle product, but I can't justify the price (and to purchase it every 1-2 months...)

So after this very confusing review, let me just recap it:

Advantages: It feels beautiful, gives you little spa feeling every day, gets rid of a tension with cooling affect. Special applicator. It DOES brighten the eye area and removes dark circles.

Disadvantages: Price. The products last for very short time. The results are not long-term (when finish using, results go away in 1-2 weeks)

Verdict: I am not convinced, will try to find a cheaper product that lasts longer and gives the results.

Have you tried this product? Would you repurchase?

Thank you very much for reading and talk to you soon:)
