Bunch of reviews ORIFLAME and Come-back giveaway

Dear Readers and Followers,

as I said in my previous post, a lot of things have changed for me, mostly good ones:)

I also had a chance to participate in Oriflame Slovenia review programme. I think I have already told you once that I'm their representative too.This is what I got into my mail, a more than generous package. So this post is going to be bilingual, hope you don't mind:) The products were provided by Oriflame, all the opinions are completely mine.

Drage Bralke/-ci,

kot sem že omenila v prejšnjem prispevku, se je v mojem življenju spremenilo veliko stvari, večina na bolje:)

Dobila sem priložnost sodelovati v ocenjevalnem programu Oriflame Slovenija, kjer sem članica že več kot 9 let. In to je paketek, ki sem ga prejela po pošti, več kot radodarno:) Izdelke mi je poslal Oriflame, vse ocene so izključno moje in na njih ni vplival nihče.

9) Hair Shine Boost Serum for light hair/serum za sijaj za svetle lase ((now on sale/zdaj v akciji za 3,29 €)


Here are the ones I have tried so far and liked/To so izdelki, ki sem jih preizkusila in so mi bili všeč:

Oriflame Colour Breeze nail polish/lak za nohte in/v barvi Sun ( (now on sale/zdaj v akciji za 3,99 €)

Amount/Količina: 7ml
Please enlarge the picture to see it better./ Povečajte sliko, da boste videle tega lepotca.
Lovely summery colour that looks perfect on sun tanned skin. Sunny yellow with small silver shimmer.
Krasna barva, ki izgleda odlično na zagoreli koži. Sončna rumena z drobnimi svetlikajočimi delčki.


What I liked/Kar mi je bilo všeč:
+ gorgeous colour/krasna barva
+long durability, I had it on my nails for at least a week, minor tipwear, and that's it/dolgo obstojen, imela sem ga na nohtih ves teden, obrabile so se samo konice
+ double brush/dvojni čopič
+ drying time, when you apply it thin it dries quite fast/čas sušenja, v tankih slojih se posuši res hitro


What I didn't like/Kar mi ni bilo tako všeč:
- application, the polish is really streaky, thus you need 3 coats to full coverage/ lak ni najbolj prekriven, 3 sloji do popolne prekrivnosti
- 7 ml


Overall/Skupno:
The colour is amazing, I don't own anything in my collection that looks similar to it, the price is 3,99 € for 7 ml, quite pricey, but if you buy it on sale it's still cheaper than its regular price 6,49 €). If you don't own a similar colour, than go for it. I will definitely use it again, although I dislike the application, but the durability is its advantage.

Prekrasna barva, v moji zbirki nimam ničesar podobnega, cena je 3,99 € za 7 ml, kar je kar precej, vendar še vedno ceneje takrat, ko je v akciji, drugače je cena 6,49 €. Če še nimate takšne barve, vam priporočam tale lak. Zagotovo ga bom še uporabila to poletje, čeprav mi nanos ni preveč všeč, njegova obstojnost odtehta vse to.

Essential Daily Scrub Cleanser/Dnevni čustilni peeling  (now on sale/zdaj v akciji za 4,99 €)

Amount/Količina: 100 ml

A cleansing peelling you can use on a daily basis. Čistilni piling, ki ga lahko uporabljate vsak dan.

What I liked/Kar mi je bilo všeč:

+ it does its job/deluje odlično

+ smell/vonj

+ it moisturizes my skin/vlaži kožo

What I didn't like/Kar mi ni bilo tako všeč:

- hmm, I don't know if I see any disadvantages, perhaps the amount you get 100 ml for 4,99 €/ ne vem, če ima sploh kakšne minuse, morda cena, za 100 ml je 4,99 €, ko ni v akciji je 6,99 €

Overall/Skupno:

I love this product, it cleanses, peels softly my skin, and it moisturizes at the same time. Perfect! 

I can only recommend it. The price is a bit high for the amount you get, but it's worth it.

Ta izdelek je odličen, mojo kožo očisti, naredi nežen piling in jo obenem tudi nahrani. Res krasno! Cena je za količino morda malce visoka, vendar je je izdelek res vreden. Priporočam!

Hair Shine Boost Serum for light hair/serum za sijaj za svetle lase ((now on sale/zdaj v akciji za 3,29 €)

Amount/Količina: 50 ml

What they say it does:

A creamy serum that restores the natural shine of light hair. Infused with white pearl and containing the ProShine System, this serum creates a boost of healthy shine. (Source: Oriflame website.)

Kaj pravijo za ta izdelek:

Lahek serum s svetlikajočimi se svetlimi delci, ki dodajo sijaj svetlo rjavim in blond lasem. Vsebuje ProShine sistem, ki ustvari sijaj pri svetlejših laseh.

What I liked/Kar mi je bilo všeč:

+ that it's light/ res je lahek

+ soft shine/rahel sijaj

+ a little goes a long way/majhna količina zadostuje za dolgo

+ it doesn't make my hair greasy/ne masti las

What I didn't like/Kar mi ni bilo všeč:

- the serum I received was for light hair, mine, however, are darker, thus the effect wasn't that evident/ serum, ki sem ga prejela, je bil namenjen svetlih lasem, moji so temni, tako tudi učinek ni bil tako zelo opazen

Overall/Skupno:

I liked the serum, although I think I will try the version for darker hair. The effect was definitely there, the shine as you can see it on the pictures, but I suppose when using the darker one it will be more prominent.

I also liked that it didn't grease my hair, as they get greasy were soon, I have to wash them every 2 days:(

Serum mi je bil všeč, vendar bom poskusila še različico za temnejše lase. Učinek se je opazil, vendar ni bil tako zelo izrazit, saj imam temnejše lase. Všeč mi je bilo tudi to, da ne masti las, moji so zelo občutljivi, moram jih umivati na 2 dni.

I'm also trying the Oriflame BioClinic Adult Skin Anti-Breakout/dnevno-nočni tretma za akne pri odraslih,

I intend to use it for a month to see some real changes, right now it does it's job well.

Preizkušam še tudi Oriflame BioClinic Adult Skin Anti-Breakout/dnevno-nočni tretma za akne pri odraslih, nameravam ga uporabljati vsaj en mesec, da vidim razliko prej in sedaj, za zdaj učinkuje!

Gradient Pink Cherry Chutney NOTD

Hello, dear readers:)

A quick post today. As I said yesterday I broke my index nail and this manicure is the last one I had made before I had to cut them down:(

For this mani I used my yesterday's NOTD with OPI Black cherry chutney and Oriflame  nail polish in Orchid which I applied with a sponge. There's not topcoat in the pictures, though it looks a bit rough, I should have added one:)

I kind of a like it, but not too much, how about you?

Thank you, dear readers and followers, have a nice and polished day:*

The image is clickable:)

Could you call this a Valentine's KOTD?:)

Quick post today:) The konad im plates used are m66 and s9. The stamping polish is China glaze Millenium.

Hope you like it:)

Thank you, dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished day:*

Does it look like Midnight passion to you??:)

 Hey,

how was your weekend?? Hope it wasn't as stressful as mine:) Just can't wait for the winter holidays to come, and I hope these days will pass in no time. There's still a lot of school work to do, that's why I did not post during the weekend.

On to the today's NOTD. It's an Oriflame nail polish in Midnight passion. I used to have, actually I still have the same colour from the previous line, though the old one was named Black cherries:) There are 2 coats in the picture without a topcoat. First and second picture were taken with flash and no artificial light, and the last inside my lightbox and with flash and artificial light. I think the last pic captures the colour well. It's a dark brownish red cream which looks a bit dark when there's no light or sun, no appllication problems with it.

What do you think of the colour? Do you like it or not?

Thank you, dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished week:*

Festive french starry starry KOTD and a giveaway

This is my second attempt doing french with konad image plate, and it turned out much better than my first one:), I had no problems applying the french line on the finger tips, hurray! Over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2 I painted 1 coat of Oriflame French manicure in Soft pink and 1 coat of Oriflame French manicure in Morning dew, then stamped it with Konad special nail polish in white and image plate m19.  The picture is not that sharp but you can still see the finished french manicure;)

This time of the year simply calls for more festive and glittery manicures, don't you think?;) So I used fauxnad plate D02 and again, I think I cannot go without it, China glaze Millenium. Afterwards I applied 1 coat of China glaze Fairy dust for extra glittery feeling:P. I'm really satisfied with the end result, though the manicure didn't want to be pictured so well, so please enlarge the pictures to see the details, which were more visible in real life than they are in pics. That would be all for to day, hope you like the manicure.

Thank you dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished weekend:* Merry holidays to you all and hope Santa brings you a lot of new polishes;)

A bit blurred to see the effect of Fairy dust

Shades of U are having great giveaway, the prizes are 2 sets of MAC brushes, how cool is that, check out their blog for more information!

E.L.F. swatches and pinky starry french KOTD

I got some color wheels from my nail polish ''supplier'' Anchek, thank you so much:* What else could I do if not swatch yesterday's haul with e.l.f. nail polishes, as I have to admit the swatches on the paper were a bit crappy indeed:) First two pictures were taken under artificial light but no flash, the second two in natural light and flash, there was just no sun today; from left to right (from bottom to the top in the 2nd pic) there are: Sunset, Berry pink, Burgundy and Dark navy. All swatches are made with 2 coats All images can be enlarged to see the details;)

The konadicure I have for you today is made with 1 coat of Nailtek f.2, then 1 coat of Oriflame French manicure in Morning dew, the tips were painted with Opi Strawberry margharita and stamped with Konad special nail polish in white and image plate m44. There is no top coat in the pictures. What do you think of it? Do you like it? Thank you dear readers and commenters, have a nice and polished day:*

CONGRATULATIONS to you! I'll email you as soon as possible or if you read this, email me yourself;)

And here's today's KOTD, it seems that too much time has passed from the last one, do you agree;)

I used Essence LE Creamylicious Iced Chai Latte 1 coat over Nailtek f.2 and stamped it with some old Visions (Oriflame nail polish) in bronze and fauxnad H23. What do you think of it? Do you like it or not? Have a nice and polished day:*

All images are clickable:)

Lilac-flowery-KOTD

Today I present you the second part of Oriflame nail polish haul:) It's a shade called Lilac shimmer, there are 2 coats in the pictures over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2. This colour has blue and lilac shimmer in it, sometimes it looks even a bit duochrome, at least in my opinion;) It looked so handy for stamping so I used image plate m64 and Konad special nail polish in Violet pearl and 1 coat of Essie g2g. I like the konadicure because it's a bit more subtle than my usual ones:) What about you? What do you think of it? Yay or nay? Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you:*

All images are clickable:)

Shimmering-diva-NOTD

As I'm an Oriflame consultant, I order each month something from the catalogue, and this period I ordered 2 nail polishes, first one I present you today - Shimmering diva. There are 2 coats over 1 coat of Nailtek f.2, but no top coat. It' s a beautiful red shade loaded with shimmer, red, gold, bronze, which is most evident on nails, but no as much in the pictures. I have around 5 shades from Oriflame and I'm very satisfied with their quality, though the colour range is not that big. Do you have any experiences with Oriflame nail polishes? Are they available where you live? Are you satisfied with the quality? Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you:*

All images are clickable:)

Essence-asian-KOTD

First I added 1 coat of Nailtek f.2 and then 2 coats of Essence Multi dimension in 48 Chill out . Afterwards I painted a diagonal line with Oriflame Beauty Nail Colour Expert in Shimmering diva which I then stamped with s4 and E.L.F. Coral. Do you like the manicure? Would you wear it? Have any other suggestions? Thank you dear readers and commenters, nice and polished day to you:*
