Passing or fancy? New Skincare & Haircare on Trial: Autumn 2016

Skincare & Haircare Trial from January is still highly favourable post on my blog. And I can see why. It's easy to read, informative, loaded with different products and it's a quick fix when you're doubting about any new product on the market. Shall we dig into another pile of new haircare and skincare?

SLO

Ker sem opazila, da zelo radi prebirate mešane objave kot je januarska Skincare & Haircare Trial, sem se odločila za novo, jesensko različico. Kaj se dogaja novega na naših kozmetičnih poličkah? Ali je vredno nakupa? Objava zajema vse, kar potrebujete vedeti na hitro o novih lansiranjih na temo kože, las in oralne higiene. Bomo torej pobrskali po velikem kupu novosti?

What's new at pharmacies? La Roche-Posay released Effaclar Duo Unifiant (16,65€ for 40ml, pharmacies) , two products in one. It's a combination of their famous Effaclar Duo acne treatment and foundation. Two in one, easily wearing foundation while you still get the benefit of a skincare. It's a lovely addition for those with combination or acne-prone skin. Although my skin is dry, I still enjoy it here and there. The coverage is light-medium and texture is quite pleasantly lightweight. Speaking of lightweight, La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Gel Cream was my favourite sunscreen for the summer. It's light but still a 100% reliable. On the other hand, my mom is loving a bit heavier Vichy Ideal Soleil 3-in-1 Tinted Anti-dark Spots Care which has full coverage and SPF 50. It comes in one shade so it's suitable only for medium skintones. Still, it covers to perfection and the tube lasts for months. It's kind of a fail for me - but my mom loves it.

Kaj je novega v lekarnah? Začnimo z novostjo pri La Roche-Posay, ki je do nedavnega dobila kar nekaj pozornosti. La Roche-Posay Effaclar Duo Unifiant (16,65€ za 40ml, v vseh lekarnah) je naslednja pričakovana poteza, saj združuje najboljše kisline in naravno prekrivnost za nečisto kožo. Unifiant tako zakrije, a hkrati suši mozolje čez dan. Tekstura je lahkotna kot njihova originalna krema, obenem pa lepo zakrije drobne nepravilnosti. Za mojo suho kožo je formula sicer malce preveč lahkotna, a si jo zamišljam kot odličen prvi puder in kremico (v enem) za mladostno kožo. Lahkotno teksturo ima tudi La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Gel Krema (16,57€ za 50ml, v vseh lekarnah), ki ščiti kožo skozi vso leto. Bila je odličen spremljevalec na vročem, španskem soncu. Moja mami obožuje Vichy Ideal Soleil 3-v-1 Obarvana Zaščitna Krema (19,51€ za 50ml, v vseh lekarnah), ki ima popolno prekrivnost pudra in korektorja, hkrati pa 100% ščiti pred pigmentacijskimi madeži skozi celotno leto. Tekstura je sicer malce gostejša, a potrebujete le grahovo velikost kreme. Na žalost je izdelek le v enem odtenku, ki je bolj primeren za srednje temno polt.

Weleda Pomegranate Firming Face Serum (27,40€ for 30ml, online) got me intrigued by getting so many beauty nominations in the past. It's truly a nice serum filled with fruit extracts, in a gel form, that sinks into the skin almost instantly. It leaves skin feeling soft and plump and it's easy to use before any kind of day cream. I respect the all natural concept and I'm pretty amazed by finding such a good texture among natural cosmetics. The only downfall is the scent - citrusy with a granny note.

Weleda Serum za obraz z granatnim jabolkom (27,40€ za 30ml, na spletu & drogerije) sem opazila zaradi raznovrstnih nominacij kot najboljši serum. Moram priznati, da je gel tekstura popolna za nanos pred kremo. Tekstura je nelepljiva, se hitro vpije, hkrati pa doda potrebno vlago. Izvlečki različnega sadja (granatno jabolko je očitno v prednosti) kožo okrepijo in jo napolnijo s potrebno vlago. Koža je mehka, obenem pa cenim čisto naravno formulo, ki ni škodljiva za mojo kožo. Slaba lastnost je le vonj, ki je klasično Weledin - po malce zatohlem sadju (Mandelj linija diši božansko). O Weleda izdelkih si lahko preberete več na Weleda.si.

The name Biotherm Aquasource Everplump moisturizer (about 39,00€ for 50ml, Muller) says it all. It's a hydrating moisturizer for all skintypes, which delivers 72 hours of hydration. Hydrating effect prevents first wrinkles and smoothes the existing. The formula recalls on jelly texture as it's lightweight and cooling. It's packed with glycerin which makes it perfect for the summer time. This might be a bit too light for dry skintypes. I like to layer it over my serum and face oil. Skin feels soft and relieved. The scent is citrusy due to citrus extracts.

Že samo ime Biotherm Aquasource Everplump kreme (okoli 39,00€ za 50ml, Muller) pove, da bo vaša koža verjetno bolj napeta zaradi šoka vlage. Krema je izredno gelasta in polna glicerina, zato ob nanosu lepo hladi. Je popolna spremljevalka normalne ali mešane kože, saj po teksturi ni težka ali preveč negovalna. Za mojo suho kožo še rada dodam olje, da obdržim vlago kreme. Koža je ob nanosu olajšana in mehka, vendar nisem opazila kakšnega posebnega učinka kot vlaženja. 

This is my first time with Dr.Hauschka, although I've heard many praises for their skincare. Soothing Cleansing Milk and Volume Mascara were kindly gifted to me by Nail2Express since she's more of a nail polish junkie (lots of colorful nail art!). Dr. Hauschka is actually a natural skincare found in various organic stores. Soothing Cleansing Milk (about 28€ for 145ml, organic stores) is gentle and removes most of my makeup. It's packed with jojoba and almond oil while it's not the best for extremely sensitive eyes. All in all, it's quite nourishing and soothing as a cleanser. Volume Mascara caught me off-guard with huge natural bristles that actually work. It gives volume and doesn't clump your lashes. A surprising find among organic shelves.

Stik z naravno kozmetiko Dr.Hauschka imam prvič, kljub temu da sem v preteklosti slišala same lepe pohvale. Soothing Cleansing Milk in Volume Mascara mi je prijazno podarila Katja iz Nail2Express kot priložnost za testiranje, saj piše sama večinoma o lepih in pisanih nohtkih. Soothing Cleansing Milk (okoli 28€ za 145ml, Biotopic) je nežno čistilno mleko, ki odstrani nečistoče in ličila. Krema je izjemno mehka in lepo odstrani večino ličil, vendar ne priporočam uporabe mleka okoli občutljivih oči. Izdelek je poln jojobinega in mandljevega olja, ki kožo obenem negujejo. Če ste pristaš čistilnega mleka, potem je lahko Dr.Hauschka zanimiva izbira. Volume Mascara me je presenetila z učinkovitostjo, saj doda lep volumen, hkrati pa ne zlepi trepalnic.

Melvita Lily Oil (19,90€ for 50ml, Melvita online) is my ultimate oil pick because it can supposedly help with pigmentation and radiance of the skin. It's actually organic sunflower oil, which had lily bulbs in it. It's silky smooth and a true joy to use before moisturizer and after serum. My dry skin feels soft and looks radiant after a month of regular use. I haven't notice any major difference on my pigmentation spots but patience might be paid off. For now, I'm totally digging texture and the radiant effect on my skin. I might update you after several months.

Melvita Lilijino olje (19,90€ za 50ml, na spletu & Muller) je kot nalašč narejeno zame. Ker imam veliko pegic, sem si to olje ogledovala že kar nekaj časa. Zakaj? Lilijine čebulice so se macerirale v organskem sončničnem olju, kombinacija pa naj bi počasi ''brisala'' pigmentne madeže. Olje uporabljam že dober mesec, s čimer sem opazila lepši ten in bolj sijočo kožo. Olje je po teksturi popolno in se lepo sloji med serumom in kremo. Drastičnih sprememb na pigmentnih madežih še nisem opazila, vendar bo to le še dodaten bonus ob redni uporabi. Poročam čez nekaj mesecev.

How cute are these? Labello Original Neon Edition (about 1,60€, all drugstores) are not just fun but they're practical too. They are great purse companion as they're easy to find in dark places due to neon packaging. The lipbalm formula stayed the same as it's a cult favourite for a reason. Stock up, they're limited and going for good when the stock sells out.

So še sploh lahko bolj ljubke? Govorim o novi Labello v neon preobleki (okoli 1,60€, v vseh drogerijah) ki izžarevajo veselje in karakter. So odlične spremljevalke v torbici, saj je ta Labello v originalni formuli enostavno vidna v temnih prostorih. Klasični balzam za ustnice v novi preobleki. Če vam je ideja všeč, pohititie, saj so zaloge omejene in bodo hitro pošle.

Le Couvent des Minimes Everyday Deodorant (10,20€ for 50ml, Muller) is not bad at all. It's all natural, crystal deodorant with rosemary and citrus essential oils. It doesn't contain any parabens, alcohol or alumininum which makes it perfect and care-free. It's pretty effective at reducing your body scent while it doesn't protect from sweating. The scent is pleasant and slightly different from your typical, all natural deodorant. I really, really like it - my second favourite after Lush Aromaco.

Le Couvent des Minimes Vsakodnevni Deodorant (10,20€ za 50ml, Muller, Nama & Maxi) je soliden, naraven deodorant. Na osnovi kristalnega kamna in eteričnih olj rožmarina, pomaranče, mandarine in limone je prava poživitev med klasičnimi, naravnimi deodoranti. Ne vsebuje nevarnih snovi, hkrati pa lepo zakrije neprijeten vonj. Vsekakor moj drugi ljubši - takoj za Lush Aromaco.

Curaprox toothbrushes (5,19€ for a toothbrush, all drugstores) are my favourite among all. They're the most effective and fun way to throughly clean your teeth without hurting your gums. And who can resist special, limited edition designs? I was recently introduced to Curaprox Interdental brushes, apparently an effective way to clean your interdental space. Say goodbye to dental floss because interdental brushes can easily clean your uneven space between teeth. Dental floss can't clean interdental space as good as the brushes. A lovely discovery that needs some attention! Dental hygiene is important as a lot of diseases can start in your mouth.

Curaprox Ščetke za zobe (5,19€ za ščetko, na spletu & v vseh drogerijah) iz Švice so že nekaj let moje redne spremljevalke, vse odkar mi jih je priporočala zobozdravnica. So ene izmed najbolj nežnih ščetk s preko 5000 ščetin, hkrati pa učinkovito očistijo zobe kot nobena druga ščetka. Dlesni so zdrave, zobje pa še bolj. In kdo se lahko upre čudovitim omejenim kolekcijam ščetk? Pred kratkim sem bila v sklopu Popolne izbire predstavljena Medzobnim ščetkam (7,14€ za set 5 ščetk, na spletu & vseh drogerijah) - kar je bilo nekaj čisto novega zame. Namesto klasične zobne nitke, Curaprox priporoča medzobne ščetke, ki so pri čiščenju več kot temeljite in učinkovite. Namreč, medzobni prostori so ukrivljeni, česar zobna nitka ne doseže. Tukaj pridejo v igro medzobne ščetke v pravi velikosti, ki s ščetinami zapolnijo medzobni prostor in ga enostavno očistijo v eni potezi. Za nov ''režim'' sem potrebovala nekaj časa, vendar sem se medzobnih ščetk popolnoma privadila po nekaj dneh. Dejansko imam medzobne prostore veliko bolje očiščene, kar je pohvalila tudi zobozdravnica. 100% priporočam, ker je zdravje zob na prvem mestu!

If there's only one person who hates yellow brassiness, then it's me. I hate yellow or regular blonde tones in my hair so I'm always on a hunt after dark purple shampoo. This time, I've stopped at Schwarzkopf Professional for two options. Schwarzkopf Bonacure Color Freeze Silver Shampoo (about 12,75€ for 250ml, at hairdresser) is the richest, darkest purple shampoo among the two. It gives instant effect to my hair, while a 10-15 min treatment (applying it as a pre-wash mask) can color your hair totally silver, white or lightly purple. It gets my seal of approval, I will most definitely repurchase. On the other hand, Blond Me Cool Ice Shampoo (13,10€ for 250ml, at hairdresser) gives a mild, non-offensive effect to blonde hair. It's a lighter,pastel purple color which is appropriate for more cool-toned blondes. Cool Ice shampoo won't give you hardcore, purple effect which makes it a safe choice but my least favourite.

Če kdo sovraži rumene tone v svojih laseh, sem to jaz. Vedno znova na lovu za vijoličnimi šamponi, želim preprečiti tople tone v mojih svetlih laseh. Temnejša je vijolična, raje jo imam. Dober ulov je Schwarzkopf Professional Bonacure Color Freeze Silver šampon (12,75€ za 250ml, na spletu & frizerski saloni) ki je dovolj temen, da lepo obarva lase. Z njim se z lahkoto dosežejo lepi rezultati - vse od srebrne, sive ali pastelne blond. Verjetno še ponovim nakup v prihodnje. Na drugi strani je Schwarzkopf Blond Me Cool Ice šampon ( 13,10€ za 250ml, na spletu & frizerski saloni), ki ima svetlejši ton vijolične. Ta šampon sicer ni po mojem okusu, ker las ne obarva tako intenzivno, vendar je super izbira za vse pšenične blondinke. Bil bi super izbira, če iščete nekaj negovalnega in se hkrati bojite vijoličnih tonov v laseh.

If you made it through, congrats!
