Yup, they've picked the right girl for the right product. It's the first thing that went through my mind when I opened my Clarins goodie bag. It's like faith, me and my new Clarins Mission Perfection Yeux. I suffer from terrible under-eye circles with blue shadows, which are even more visible with a line of freckles on my cheeks. In my mid-20's and with dry skin, I sure get dehydrated skin around eyes. Which is not ideal, especially in the age of ''growing my first, expression wrinkles''. Quite frankly, I get dry unpleasant feeling really often so I need to care for my eye area religiously - every day.

Bourjois City Radiance Foundation and Concealer Review & Test
Urban life necessity and everything in one tube - that's short for Bourjois City Radiance. After long-gone initial glowy 10h Sleep Effect foundation (pioneers might still remember), City Radiance made a perfect return for fresh and glowy Spring 2016. Two main components will not only make your skin looking youthful, but they will also protect from pollution and ageing sun rays with SPF 30 and added free radical protection. Tired and sad skin will look radiant and lifted in terms of seconds. Do I need to emphasise my love toward this line? Results are pretty obvious within this post...
SLO
Urban pripomoček ali vsestranski bojevnik proti onesnaženju? Oboje bi lahko opisalo novo linijo Bourjois City Radiance. Po dolgo pozabljenem Bourjois 10h Sleep Effect pudru (pionirke se še ga verjetno spomnite), je City Radiance naredil nov korak k bolj sijoči in popolni polti za to pomlad. Dva urbana pripomočka ne bosta le navidezno pomladila kožo, ampak jo tudi zavarovala pred onesnaženim zrakom in škodljivimi sončnimi žarki z zaščitnim faktorjem 30. Utrujena in medla koža bo tako ponovno zasijala v trenutku nanosa. Sliši se že dovolj obetavno, da lahko sklepate mojo ljubezen do te linije. Rezultati pa prav tako govorijo sami zase v nadaljevanju...
Let us start with the main star, City Radiance Foundation (around 13,50€ for 30ml, online). It's near to my personal foundation perfection as I'm always striving for youthful looking finishes. My skin is definitely not far off from being dry, which makes me crave after that fresh looking skin. Don't get me wrong, City Radiance doesn't have perfectly glowy finish but rather a solid brightening effect with natural looking finish. Just enough to perk up tired skin. I'm talking about hardly semi-glowy finish with slightly pinkish/peachy undertone to refresh your complexion. Colour selection isn't bad either as 01 Rose Ivory almost exceeds lightest Healthy Mix shade. If you're totally in love with true yellow based foundations, next shade up looks pretty promising. 01 Rose Ivory is almost a perfect match for my fairly neutral skintone while you can still spot a light shade difference on my neck. Nothing major that good blending out can't fix on fairer ladies. Texture is pretty creamy and not as liquid as I've would have expected in the first place from such a concept. It's kind of soothing on dry and normal skintypes. Still, I think it's also quite wearable on combination skin while oily skintypes won't appreciate potentially exposed enlarged pores. Coverage is between light-medium and easily buildable. Longevity is not the strongest point at about 3-6 hours of wear. Foundation has a strong fresh floral scent like all Bourjois products.
Začnimo z zvezdo kolekcije, City Radiance Foundation (okoli 13,99€ za 30ml, v DM & Muller), ki je dejansko zelo blizu moji interpretaciji popolne podlage. Mladosten videz in sveža polt sta kot nalašč za suho kožo, ki velikokrat potrebuje dodatno brco za ''sijaj od znotraj''. City Radiance sicer ni podlaga s sijočim videzom, ampak uteleša popolno kombinacijo naravnega zaključka, nekje med satenastim in sijočim. Obenem kožo nekako osvetli, jo olepša in povzdigne. Ravno dovolj, da prikrije utrujeno kožo s skritim rožnato-mareličnim tonom. 01 Rose Ivory je najsvetlejši odtenek v naboru 5 odtenkov in je dejansko za piko svetlejši kot najsvetlejši Healthy Mix Foundation. Je skoraj popoln ton za mojo nevtralno kožo, malce razlike se opazi le pri vratu. Ničesar drastičnega, kar ne bi uredilo dobro zabrisovanje. Tekstura je za Bourjois dokaj kremna, kar nekako pomiri še tako suho ali normalno kožo. Kljub teksturi in naravnemu zaključku bi lahko to podlago oboževale tudi tiste z bolj mešano kožo. Pri mastnemu tipu kože bi lahko City Radiance poudaril razširjene pore. Prekrivnost je lahkotna do srednje prekrivna, hkrati pa lahko podlago tudi slojimo. Obstojnost verjetno ni najboljša vrlina, saj kremna tekstura in naraven zaključek poskrbita, da podlaga izgine med 3-6 ur na določenih delih obraza. Kot zanimivost ima ta podlaga dokaj močan vonj po svežih cvetlicah.
Radiance Reveal Concealer (about 10,95€ for 7,8ml, online) could be on the other side, the main highlight of this release. Illuminating properties and slightly peachy undertone conceal out dark blue circles with ease. It's lightweight in texture and utterly illuminating beyond my first expectations. Coverage is balanced somewhere on the medium side, which allows layering and fresh finish. It's not the best for covering imperfections but rather to lift and brighten your under eye area and natural contour around your mouth. In terms of colour, 01 Ivory it's beautifully light for all sorts of fair skintones. Longevity is standard and it doesn't crease on my skin. Everything is rounded together with gorgeous packaging and doe foot applicator. True love!
Radiance Reveal Concealer (okoli 10€ za 7,8ml, v DM & Muller) bi lahko poimenovala razsvetlitev tega lansiranja. Korektor namreč lepo osvetli vse temne kotičke obraza, vključno s temnimi podočnjaki in prvimi gubicami okoli ust. Rahlo mareličen podton dela čudeže, obenem pa nikakor ni opazen na koži. Tekstura je lahkotna in se čudovito plasti tudi pod očmi. Sama nisem opazila nabiranja v majhne gubice. Prekrivnost je srednja, kar omogoči naraven zaključek in obenem dovolj zakritih temnih kotičkov. Korektor vsekakor ni idealen za opazne nepopolnosti, se pa lepo obnaša na večjih površinah in pri osvetljevanju. Čudovito povzdigne in prikrije temne podočnjake in opazne gubice okoli ust. Nasvetlješi odtenek 01 Ivory je ravno dovolj svetel za vse tipe ultra svetle kože. Pri obstojnosti nisem opazila kakšnih razlik z ostalimi korektorji, ki osvetljujejo. Vse skupaj je lepo zaokroženo v čudoviti embalaži, ki je vredna pogleda. Prava ljubezen!
CITY RADIANCE TEST
I've applied two pea sizes of City Radiance in 01 Rose Ivory with my fingertips. My freckles do show through a bit better in person while it may look slightly on the full coverage side. After initial layer, I've added swipes of Radiance Reveal Concealer in 01 Ivory on my dark circles, around my mouth area, especially targeting my first lines. Fresh and radiant with a perfect balance between glowy and satin finish.
Z rokami sem nanesla dve grahovi velikosti podlage City Radiance v odtenku 01 Rose Ivory. Moje pegice so še vedno opazne, vendar srednje prekrite za bolj enakomerno polt. Puder deluje naravno in dokaj osvetli določena področja obraza. Viden je takojšnji učinek mladostne in sveže kože. Po sloju podlage, sem nanesla še Radiance Reveal korektor v odtenku 01 Ivory na področje modrih podočnjakov in okoli ust. Lepo osvetli prve gubice, obenem pa koža izgleda sveže, naravno in povzdignjeno.
City Radiance will be a pleasant surprise for almost all skintypes - from dry, normal and combination. Oily skintypes might not get the best result with it but the foundation itself offers a pretty decent natural finish. It illuminates and lifts up complexion with slightly pinky/peachy tone and adds ''your second skin'' effect. It's pretty comfortable to wear and easy to use in the mornings. Radiance Reveal Concealer is also a lovely highlight as it gives radiance and fresh effect to problem areas like dark circles and mouth area. From my side of the story, I would totally recommend picking up both - I already bought a foundation backup on sale.
Soy wax Chelsea Candle in Green Tea & Lemon can be bought here.
City Radiance linija je vsekakor prijetno presenečenje za skoraj vse tipe kože - od normalne, suhe in mešane. Podlaga ponuja prijeten naraven zaključek in dokaj dobro prekrivnost. Lepo osvetli in povzdigne polt, da zažari v svežem sijaju. Kot druga, a lepša koža. Tudi Radiance Reveal korektor je lep doprinos Bourjois družinici, kar me niti ne čudi. Bourjois ima lep nabor dobrih korektorjev in podlag. Popolnoma lahko priporočam oba izdelka - sama sem že nakupila rezervo pudra po znižani ceni.

The SAEM Cover Perfection Liquid Concealer Review
From what I've experienced, Korean concealers are in general quite creamy, thick and highly pigmented. If you were by any chance surprised by Korean BB's coverage, you can probably imagine the next step towards perfected skin. Should I dare to bet on Korean concealers instead of old and bland European interpretations? Well, not quite. While Korean concealer stash is highly pigmented and rich but there are some flaws - same as with European versions. Still, dark circles and wide areas (in need of coverage) are pretty much a good match with Korean style of concealers, especially with a newly discovered The SAEM Cover Perfection Liquid Concealer. Why? Upon brand claims, it contains olive oil for extra nourishment, pigment fitting gel for a flawless finish and it's easily mixed into foundation for higher coverage.
The SAEM Liquid Concealer (7,98$, 15ml, Jolse) comes in a handy squeeze tube with a thin applicator for precise application and sanitary reasons. This tiny little tube contains a generous amount of 15ml, which is frankly, half of the amount in standard foundations. If we put the concealer itself into the spotlight, we can easily notice highly pigmented and creamy texture. Blending it out, The SAEM concealer offers medium to buildable high pigmentation. Since it's so potent and creamy, you should be careful with application as it gets a bit cakey with heavy layers. Also, another negative side is that it can enhance large pores so avoid area around your nose. Longevity is pretty standard, nothing extraordinary yet not bad. I get an average of 5-6 hours of wear.
If I take into consideration the all in all colour selection from The SAEM Liquid Concealer range, there are only 2 shades in total which can complicate things a little bit. The lightest shade, #1 Clear Beige is a perfect choice for light (but too dark for fair) skintones while #2 should take care of medium skintones. For me, this shade is a tad too dark (think Bourjois Healthy Mix Concealer 51) but still works on my lighter/blueish under eye area. Colour is quite yellowish, which makes it suitable for covering blue dark circles or making a better match with yellow skintones. Olive oil also provides extra moisture to delicate eye area. Under eye area truly looks more moisturised than without it. Also, I need to point out, that this concealer doesn't move or feel greasy in any way. I'm predicting it has only the tiniest amount of oil in the mixture. Due to still creamy but thick consistency, it's easily mixed with foundations for extra coverage as The SAEM suggests. Skin looks flawless but not heavily covered if we use thin layers.
The SAEM Cover Perfection Liquid Concealer is worth the look at only 7,98$ a piece. It has medium coverage and it's perfect for covering larger areas or dark circles due to nourishing oil and gel technology. Personally, I love to use it around my chin if mixed with lighter foundation or around eye area as it blends out seamlessly. The SAEM brand definitely grows on me - Lip Oil and Eco Soul Matte lipstick are a total blast. This brand is easily found online, usually with free worldwide shipping. Jolse has pretty much the biggest selection of The SAEM makeup line here.

My Take on New Catrice Fall/Winter 2015 Products
Catrice sure knows how to excite, gain new buyers and stay in trend with every passing seasonal release. I'm not gonna lie, I'm definitely in the group of crazy ladies that's always on a hunt after new, freshly released Catrice bits. This Fall season around, I was not as intrigued with usual lip products as I'm excited over face products. Who would have thought, that a lipstick junkie like me would break under the pressure of having an overflow of lippies. After initial impressions, it's safe to say that Catrice face (and eye) novelties for Fall/Winter 2015 are worth the extra look.
Defining Blush (3,79€, 5g, here) range had to grow on me, that's for sure. Initial shades and colours were just too bright for my personal taste but I'm happy to see that's slowly changing. In fact, along with perfectly light discontinued shade called Pink Charming (pastel peachy pink), there are 3 newly released shades, 2 of them are especially perfect for pale ladies like me. 045 Lilactric is a brightening, white based pastel violet that shows up only on extra fair complexion. Medium and tan skintones could use this as a cool highlighter. It's so light, that it can be easily compared to a long gone favourite Dainty Doll Blusher Hippy Shake by Nicola Roberts (I still regret the day they've discontinued her makeup line for pale girls). Staying on the track with Catrice, Lilactric is actually satin with an extremely sheer pigmentation. Building the shade intensity is easy though. Texture is finely milled and easy to apply in layers. If you prefer pigmented blushers over layering, this is a definite pass for you. On the other hand, 100 Rose Couture is a neutral rose in a similar colour family as Tarte Exposed (but way lighter) or Benefit Hervana. Veining silver shimmer and sparkle add a bit of glow without over exaggerating your pores. I actually love it since it's not too warm yet not too cool - wearable with any lipstick shade. Smooth texture and possible sparkle fallout are the two things to remember. Defining blushes have an average longevity of 4-6 hours.
Catrice Liquid Camouflage High Coverage Concealer (3,79€, 5ml, here) sounds as a perfect European version of UK's beloved Collection Lasting Perfection Concealer. High coverage, water proof consistency and ability to cover tattoos/scars/pigmentation are the main selling points. Well, it kinda sounds too good to be true, right? Coverage is in fact quite good, however only to medium extent of pigmentation. It doesn't cover obvious marks nor tattoos (read Petra's take) but it manages to cover imperfections such as blemishes and lighter pigmentation marks. Consistency is buildable and thick with floral scent to it. Thick but creamy formula tends to set nicely but still exaggerates obvious lines or pores. Although it's not the best around T-zone area, it blends easily even under the eye area. It covers dark circles and it's still not too heavy. Personally, I really enjoy using this concealer but it still can't compete with UK's Collection Lasting Perfection. Shade 010 Porcellain is light enough for fair skintones (NW15 or Bourjois Healthy Mix 51 in my case) and it doesn't have prominent yellow tones as most concealers. Demo is made over my hand where I've burnt myself and got extra hyperpigmentation with time. Clearly, it conceals most of my freckles while the most prominent still shine through. Recommend!
Velvet Matt Eyeshadow (4,29€, 2,9g, here) are pretty pricey for Catrice range, however, the actual eyeshadow is superb in texture, finish and pigmentation. They are highly, highly pigmented with the most stunningly smooth texture and velvety finish. Name might mislead you as the shades itself aren't totally matte. They are all in the range of satin or sheen finish. The main mistake, sensitive baked bump of eyeshadow is now transformed into flat surface, making the actual amount drop from 3,5g to only 2,9g. Still, I enjoy my older versions so much, I had to try newly added shade in Princess Mattleine. It's a gorgeous tan neutral (or should I say ''bronzer for your eyelids'') that can fit into the crease, as an all over colour or warming shade. Satin colour with a slight sheen is actually a bit more matte looking on the eyes. I love to pair it with a winged liner as an all over lid shade or adding extra warmth to my crease. They have a good lasting power without fading through out the day while you will silently squeal when you'll touch the velvety smooth texture.
I've had another blast with new Catrice Fall/Winter 2015 products. I'm still eyeing some other bits (Contouring Palette for example) but I'm also totally happy with my current picks. If the foundations also have a new, more pleasant scent and lighter shades as the mentioned concealer, I might give another try with them too. Velvet Matt Eyeshadows are expensive but worth the try, while Defining Blushes are a no brainer. Liquid Camouflage Concealer is a lovely medium coverage concealer that shouldn't be missed out in daily makeup routine. Catrice is, all in all, still on fire with trendy colours and textures. Catrice can be found in most European drugstores (Catrice is also newly available in the USA - Ulta stores & online) and it's widely available in Slovenian drugstores such as Muller, DM and Tuš drogerija.

Huge Overview of MeMeMe Cosmetics
MeMeMe Cosmetics or should I say heavenly drugstore brand from the UK, is far from only being an angelic one night stand. UK girls are by now quite familiar with the brand and concept as MeMeMe Cosmetics is quite openly minded to bloggers and their audience. After months of trying I've come to conclusion that it's quite a solid brand with generally great brow products and blushes, while concealers surprise with texture and shade chart. It's also good to note that they ship worldwide from their website and are stocked in Slovenia at Moja Drogerija.
SLO
MeMeMe ali nebeško navdihnjena kozmetika iz Velike Britanije še zdaleč ni angelska enodnevnica. MeMeMe je dokaj ustaljena znamka v tujini, saj da le-ta velik poudarek na mnenje blogerske sfere in njihovih bralcev. Po več-mesečnem testiranju sem prišla do zaključka v tej krilati zagati. Znamka je vsekakor vredna ogleda saj preseneča z dobrimi produkti za obrvi, odličnimi rdečili in zanimivimi korektorji z nenavadno selekcijo barv. Dobro bi si bilo zapisati, da je MeMeMe na voljo tudi v Sloveniji. In sicer v spletni prodajalni Moja Drogerija. Sedaj pa poletimo v višave!
MeMeMe Flawless Cream Foundation (about 18,79€) in 01 Porcelain Pure could be a hit or a miss depending on your skintone and skintype. It's a rather thick foundation that borders on mousse-like consistency and has a dual satin/matte finish. I was particularly confused but intrigued at the same time. Foundation feels soothing and rich on my dry skin while other skintypes might not like heavy duty texture. Surprisingly it has only medium coverage and a distinct earthy-floral scent. I'm sad to note that the lightest shade is far too dark for my pale skintone (think lighter than Bourjois Healthy Mix 51) but matches my summer ''tan'' at about a shade or two darker.
MeMeMe Flawless Cream Foundation (18,79€, tukaj) v 01 Porcelain Pure je lahko tvegana izbira. Tvegana zato, ker je zelo specifično ustvarjena za suho kožo glede na težko in hranljivo teksturo. Je kremni tekoči puder za kar se ga vsekakor občuti na obrazu in ima hkrati pusti satenasto-mat občutek. Prav tako se najsvetlejši odtenek nikakor ne ujema z mojim svetlim tonom kože (ki je svetlejši od Bourjois Healthy Mix 51). Na srečo lahko uporabljam ta srednje prekriven puder v poletnih mesecih, ko imam kožo temnejšo za odtenek ali dva. Cenim, da ima priročno pumpico.
MeMeMe Flawless Loose Powder Translucent (about 11,36€) is definitely staying in my everyday stash. While it's not entirely translucent it leaves a slight tinge of colour, suitable for people with light (but not fair) or medium skintone. Still, I light to use it with a light hand and dusting motion as I'm a massive fan of loose powders. They offer the most beautiful and natural finish on the skin and extend your foundation wear.
MeMeMe Flawless Loose Powder Translucent (11,36€, tukaj) bo vsekakor stalnica v moji dnevni rutini z ličili. Naravnost obožujem pudre v prahu saj podajo najbolj naraven zaključek, hkrati pa lepo podaljšajo obstojnost pudra brez mat učinka. Tale prah vsekakor ni prosojen ampak ima malce barve, ki se ujema s svetlimi in srednjimi teni kože. Hkrati vsebuje minimalno število svetlikajočih delcov, ki so vidni na soncu. Nič pretiranega a hkrati poživi ten. Sama ga uporabljam minimalno, toliko da se čopič narahlo dotakne kože.
Now this is a perfect example of a perfect concealer for fair skintones. MeMeMe Flawless Concealer 04 Porcelain (about 9,81€) is absolutely the lightest shade of concealer I have tried. It's lighter than Collection Lasting Perfection concealer in 1 Fair and has a distinct yellow undertone. Score for my blue under eye circles! I can conceal my dark circles AND highlight with it. For my fair complexion it's way too light which never happened to me. So ladies, if you're on a hunt for extra light concealer, this one is a match. Texture is pleasantly creamy with medium coverage but also buildable. Stays put for a good few hours and doesn't crease around your eye area.
MeMeMe Flawless Concealer v odtenku 04 Porcelain (9,81€, tukaj) je čudovit primer za najsvetlejši korektor za svetlopolte dame. Je verjetno prvi (in zadnji) svetel odtenek, ki je na moji koži skoraj presvetel. Kar je enostavno neverjetno, glede na to da ima naš trg premalo svetlih odtenkov za bledične gospodične. Ne le da lahko z njim posvetlim predel okoli oči, hkrati lahko z njim osvetljujem predele obraza ker je tako svetel. Tekstura je prav tako dobra in nudi srednjo prekrivnost. Ni pregost, ni preredek - ravno prav. Se ne prenaša na obrazu in obstane za dobrih nekaj ur. Vsekakor priporočam če še vedno iščete svetel odtenek z rumenim podtonom.
MeMeMe Correct & Perfect Concealer Kit - Taupe (about 7,86€) has a similar concept as some high end brands. You get a creamy concealer with a yellow tinge on the top and a finely milled yellow powder on the bottom. They both combine into a perfect dark circle kit. At first, I was convinced it's highly potent product for covering blemishes and imperfections. Wrong. It's actually meant for dark under eye circles because the texture of creamy concealer is highly creamy yet sheer and buildable. Powder itself sets everything into place. Taupe actually matches my face as I have pronounced blue dark circles. Easily blendable but still sets and doesn't transfer into smaller eye wrinkles. A handy little thing.
MeMeMe Correct & Perfect Concealer Kit - odtenek Taupe (7,86€, tukaj) ima podoben koncept korektorja kot višje cenovne znamke. Sama sem bila prepričana da je korektor močno prekriven in tako primeren za nepravilnosti. Tekstura zgornjega kremnega dela je tako prosojna in hkrati prekrivna, da je lahko odlična le za podočnjake. Ima malce rumenega podtona kar dobro prekrije modre podočnjake. Nikakor ni pretežek in se ne nabira v gubah. Rumenkast prah v spodnjem delu zaključi in učvrsti kremni korektor kot v sanjah. Odtenek Taupe dejansko pristaja moji barvi podočnjakov in jih ne potemni. Vsekakor priročna mala stvarca.
MeMeMe Blush Me Pink (about 8,95€) packaging is obviously similar to Benefit Box o'Powders. While I'm obsessed with original versions from Benefit, MeMeMe version isn't bad either. It has everything a good boxed blush should have - mirror, soft brush and cute design. Pink shade is definitely right up my alley as it contains small silver shimmer particles for adding additional angelic glow. It's a bright cool toned pink that never goes out of fashion. Longevity is standard while texture is finely milled and soft. This just passed the test and joined my Benefit collection.
MeMeMe Blush Me Pink rdečilo (8,95€, tukaj) me najprej spomni na dobro poznana Benefit rdečila. Medtem ko sem sama strastna zbirateljica Benefitovih škatlic, me je tudi MeMeMe verzija prijetno presenetila. Ima vse kar mora imeti dobro rdečilo v škatlici - veliko ogledalo, odličen in mehak čopič ter srčkan potisk. Odtenek Pink mi je pisan na kožo saj pričara angelski sijaj na ličkih z srebrnimi lesketajočimi delci. Barva je močna, hladna roza ki ne gre nikoli iz mode. Glede obstojnosti nimam problemov, tekstura pa je dobro mleta in mehka. Tale škatlica je opravila test z odliko in se je že pridružila moji Benefit družinici.
With MeMeMe Beat the Blues - Oyster Gold (about 8,16€) is was feeling brave to venture into world of warm and gold highlighters. While Oyster Gold might not suit my neutral skintone as nicely as to my fellow warm toned ladies, I'm pretty pleased with final result. Shimmers are subtle and glow is pretty undetectable unless you're outdoors. It has a nail polish like brush for easy and precise application. There's also a pink version of Beat the Blues.
MeMeMe Beat the Blues v odtenku Oyster Gold (8,16€, tukaj) me je privlačil z nenavadno embalažo v obliki laka. Nanos s čopičem je tako enostaven in natančen. Sam produkt ni kaj dosti pigmentiran in se zlahka zabriše le v tančico sijaja, ki je vidna le na soncu. Najlažje se uporablja kot osvetljevalec ličnic in notranjih kotičkov očes. Odtenek sicer ni idealen za svetlo kožo, bi pa prišel do izraza pri zagorelih in rumenih tonih kože. Prav tako obstaja rožnat podton istega osvetljevalca.
MeMeMe Arch Angel Tinted Brow Gel and Highlighting Cream (about 13,35€) is my top pick out of the bunch. Shade Light Brown matches my brows perfectly while ultra flashy champagne highlighter is to die for. I'm in love with the highlighter end as it's highly pigmented without any bigger particles. It's subtle yet potent and perfect for defining arched brow or giving light to your inner eye corners. Brow Gel is quite pigmented without any warm tones and has a convenient small brush that provides streak-free brows. In love with this product, quite a multitasker on the go.
MeMeMe Arch Angel Tinted Brow Gel & Highlighting Cream (13,35€, tukaj) je moja najljubša izbira iz nabora njihovih izdelkov. Odtenek Light Brown je odličen za vse svetlolaske in rjavolaske, saj ima gel za obrvi dokaj hladen podton. Gel je dobro pigmentiran in ima odlično kratko krtačko, s katero ne bo težav pri razčesavanju. Osvetljevalec iz tega seta je absoluten favorit z odličnim kremastim odtenkom in močnimi sijočimi delci. Popolno poskrbi za osvetlitev loka pod obrvmi, hkrati pa odpre pogled če ga nanesemo v notranje kotičke oči. Osvetljevalec se z lahkoto nanaša z aplikatorjem. Enostaven produkt s katerim lahko ustvarite različne videze.
MeMeMe Gaia Satin Lip Cream in Cherub Blush (about 10,94€) is unfortunately a miss for me. It's sad to say but I'm not pleased with this particular product. I've been struggling with odd formula since day one and it just went downhill afterwards. Firstly, Cherub Blush is an unflattering orange-nude for my pale complexion. It could look gorgeous on warm and tan skintones but it's a no-no for me. I often mix it with taupe lipliners and mauve lipsticks. The main problem is creamy texture as the name Lip Cream suggests. It's far too melty and creamy for tube packaging while I enjoyed formula on my lips. Also, it smells awfully after earthy soil. Similar experience also had Sanja and Taya. Other lipstick shades might be different but generally, just pass their lipstick line. Sorry MeMeMe, I tried to like it.
MeMeMe Gaia Satin Lip Cream v Cherub Blush (10,94€, tukaj) je na žalost izdelek, ki me ni navdušil. Z njim imam težave odkar sem ga prvič dobila v roke in od takrat najprej je šlo vse skupaj še navzdol. Kot prvič, odtenek nikakor ne pristaja svetlejšim tonom kože saj ima močno toplo bazo nude odtenka. Vonj hkrati spominja na zemeljsko prst in ni nikakor prijeten. Čeprav odtenek rada mešam s hladnejšimi toni, zelo kremasta tekstura enostavno ne zdrži pritiska v embalaži. Izdelek je enostavno premehak in prekremast, da bi se lahko obdržal v tubi. Podobne izkušnje si lahko preberete tudi na blogu Sanje in Taye. Ostali odtenki morebiti niso tako kritični, vendar bi se za vsak slučaj izognila tej liniji šmink. Oprosti MeMeMe, res sem se trudila s tem izdelkom.
I've also prepared a makeup look where you can see all mentioned products in action. MeMeMe Brow Gel is combined with brow pencil, while I added Highlighting Cream from Arch Angel duo into my inner eye area. Blush Me Pink is on my cheeks along with Oyster Gold highlighter while my base consists out of Flawless Cream Foundation (mixed with white foundation), Flawless Loose Powder and both concealers under my eyes. Unfortunate Cherub Blush Lip Cream is paired with NYX 1000 Years lipliner. All MeMeMe products can be purchased in the UK or worldwide on their website.
Prav tako sem se naličila z omenjenimi izdelki, da jih lahko vidite v akciji. MeMeMe Brow Gel sem kombinirala z barvico za obrvi, medtem ko sem nanesla osvetljevalec iz istega seta Arch Angel pod obrvi in v notranje kotičke očesa. Blush Me Pink je skupaj z Oyster Gold osvetljevalcem na mojih ličnicah, bazo pa sestavlja Flawless Cream Foundation (zmešano z belim pudrom) in Flawless Loose Powder. Oba korektorja sem uporabila pod očmi za prekrivanje podočnjakov. Nesrečna šminka v odtenku Cherub Blush Gaia je v kombinaciji s sivim odtenkom svinčnika za ustnice, NYX 1000 Years, videti še dokaj dobro na svetli koži. Vse MeMeMe izdelke si lahko ogledate in naročite preko Moja Drogerija.
