What I am currently loving

Hello there, 

just a quick post about products I am in love right now. They work, makes my life easier, so let me share the goodies with you.


Clinique All about shadow 8-pan palette 
This is perfect compact palette that I bring with me to the GYM, it has got 8 different shades from very pale to the darkest so I can create different looks every day if I wanted to (I am creature of a habit, so mostly my eye look stays very similar). The colours are nicely pigmented and you can easily blend them as well. 

Origins Clean energy Gentle cleansing oil
Recently I have been doing cleaning in my skincare stash and I found this cleansing oil. I haven't used it for a while and now I love it. It is so easy to remove makeup with this. Just pump up few times into palms of my hands, massage into the skin (with the scent it feels very aromatherapeutic and spa like) and then you just wash with your normal cleanser. It was a life saver in my lazy evenings when I just didn't feel bothered to do anything:)

Organic forest honey
I still swear by honey as a cleanser. It just really works for me. It is really funny at first as it doesn't feel like any other cleanser, but whenever I don't use it, I can see my skin doesn't like it. I just put a little on dry skin, massage for up to a minute and then wash off. Skin is soft afterwards and this organic one is so smooth and not sticky at all, I just love it. (I have bought mine in Holland&Barrett)


And last but not least a toothpaste everyone talks about and there is a good reason for it. I haven't been whitening my teeth for few months now, but still have compliments about my white teeth. 

What are YOU currently loving?

Clinique 70° And Sunny Nail enamel

It was long time awaited that Clinique will bring their nailpolishes back. It took them few years to get formula right, so it doesn't irritate skin or eyes. If you are sensitive, these will be great for you. 

Čakalo sa dosť dlho na to, aby Clinique znovu priniesla laky na nechty. Trvalo to pár rokov kým dokázali vytvoriť a dať dokopy ingrediencie, ktoré nedráždia pokožku alebo oči. Ak máte citlivejšiu pokožku či oči, toto je pre vás skvelá voľba. 


They came with with shades that are definitely not boring. Limited edition shades are being proper bright coral, pink, orange and yellow. And yellow one first made me feel quite odd, but when I tried it, oh man. Oh....Unbelievably nice bright yellow that is literally sun in a nailpolish. 

Odtiene nie sú jednoznačne nudné. Limitovaná edícia odtieňov je poriadne žiarivá ružovo-oranžová, ružová, oranžová a žltá. A práve tá žltá mi najprv prišla ako veľmi zvláštna farba, ale keď som vyskúšala....uf uf predýchavanie...neskutočne krásna výrazná žltá, ktorá je skutočne slnkom v laku na nechty. 


Makes even my skin looking tan and making me want to go on holiday so badly. Well, soon:)

Robí dokonca aj moju pokožku opálene vyzerajúcu a už aby som bola na dovolenke. Už čoskoro:)


I had to apply 2 coats to get proper opaque look, but it is certainly worth it. 

Musela som aplikovať dve vrsty aby som dosiahla poriadny žltý efekt, ale stálo to za to.

Definitely go and get one! Retails for £12.

Určite choďte a kúpte si jeden! Cena £12.

Review: Chubby sticks for eyes

Product a lot of people were waiting for as chubby sticks for lips are absolutely loved. I had a chance to play around with chubby sticks for eyes, so I will tell you a little piece of my mind.

I got only one chubby stick in colour pink and plenty (07), but I have tried darker colours as well as lighter shades.



Chubby sticks for eyes are amazing if you are on the go, just want to place a little bit of eyeshadow with minimal effort. It is smooth and easy to apply. If you are going with darker colours, I would make sure that you try to blend it as soon as possible as they set pretty quickly. 


Trying to do a little bit of 2 shades- one all over colour and one in the crease was first a little challenge, but if you make sure that you have quite clean (even applied POWDER first) canvas, so blending is so much easier. If you forget to put them first, it is easy if you just blend it afterwards. 

The chubby sticks are beautifully opaque and if they set, they stay for whole day.



As they stay, I would suggest to have a good eye make-up remover by hand as they don't feel the easiest to come off.

Overall rating: Great for everyday, even when transforming to the night. The easiest smokey eyes. 

Great for: Everyone who wants to look great with little time and little makeup skills.

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:)
