Yves Rocher makeup

* This post is written in Slovene only. / Ta objava je napisana samo v slovenščini.


10 blogerk je prejelo izdelke podjetja Yves Rocher, da jih stestiramo, naredimo izviren makeup look in na koncu bo najboljši look prejel nagrado. Danes vam bom na kratko ocenila izdelke, ki sem jih prejela in pokazala moj makeup look, ki sem ga naredila. Prejela sem primer za obraz, tekočo podlago, fiksirni puder v prahu, maskaro, rdečilo, dvojno senčilo in mat enojno senčilo.


Najprej kratka ocena izdelkov.
Bom začela kar z bazo oz primerjem. Yves Rocher Perfect primer Fix and illuminate ima precej močan vonj (ni neprijeten, je pa močan), vendar se po nanosu na obraz razdiši. Primer se lepo nanese na obraz, meni je malce zmanjšal videz por in omogočil, da se je tekoči puder lepo nanesel. Tudi podajša obstojnost obraznega makeupa.
Tudi tokoča podlaga Yves Rocher Youthful glow foundation ima močan vonj, malce drugačen kot primer, vendar se tudi ta razdiši, ko ga naneseš. Barva Beige 100 ni ravno moj odtenek in podton, vendar mi je všeč mazljivost, obstojnost in prekrivnot. Je nekje srednje prekriven, na meni zdrži nekje 8 ur.
Povrhu tekoče podlage sem nanesla Yves Rocher Velvety loose powder v barvi 02. Transparence beige. Čeprav je odtenek malce temnejši kot puder, ki ga običajno uporabljam, ta nekako deluje na moji koži, sicer pa itak ne nanesem veliko. Lepo fiksira podlago, malce matira, vendar ne zgleda nenaravno. Poleg pudra se dobi gobica za nanašanje.
Moj najljubši izdelek je Yves Rocher Natural blush v 20 - Medium beige. Je super pigmentirano rdečilo in se lepo nanaša. Ima bolj nežen vonj od prvih treh izdelkov, tudi ta se porazgubi. Jaz ga uporabljam tudi kot senčenje za obraz (ker ni oranžen) in kot rdečilo, odlično se odnese tudi kot senčilo v gubi in se lepo zabriše z drugimi senčkami.
Za oči sem uporabila Yves Rocher Intense color single eyeshadow v 101 - Rose Thé mat. Je enojno mat senčilo kožne barve, ki sem ga uporabila za fiksiranje primerja za oči, ravno tako mi je pomagal, da sem lažje zabrisala senčila. Jaz osebno uporabljam takšna mat senčila tudi pod očmi, da zabrišem temnejšo senčko in fiksiram korektor :).
Yves Rocher Intense color duo eyeshadow v 23 - Or et Ultra marine je na prvi pogled čudovito dvojno senčilo, vendar sem bila precej razočarana s pigmentiranostjo in kako se nanaša. Zlata barva je ob zabrisu skoraj prosojna in se vidijo samo majhne bleščice, uporabila pa sem jo tudi kot osvetljevalev na obrazu, modra pa se ne zabriše enakomerno in ni pigmentirana. Zato sem se pri svojem makeup looku znašla in nanesla kremno podlago (svinčnika), da so barve prišle malce bolj do izraza.
Maskara Yves Rocher Sexy Pulp Ultra- volume mascara je kar v redu, vendar jaz moram nanesti kar nekaj plasti preden dosežem videz, ki ga želim (no, približa se mu). Imam namreč zelo trmaste, svetle in ravne trepalnice. Neobstoječe po domače in vedno iščem ekstreme v maskari. Sexy Pulp maskara je dobra, predvsem za punce, ki iščejo samo volumen, saj jih ne bo ravno precej podaljšala in zavihala.
Zadnji izdelek je šminka Yves Rocher Veiled coral. Je zelo lepo mazljiva, dišeča (vonj se razgubi), pigmentirana, vendar obstojnost ni najdaljša. Bi rekla nekje 2 uri, brez svinčnika za obrobo se bo verjetno nabrala v gubicah okoli ustnic (meni se je).

In še moj makeup:





Za makeup sem uporabila naslednje izdelke:
Obraz:
- Yves Rocher Perfecrt Primer Fix and Illuminate
- Yves Rocher Youthful glow foundation Beige 100
- Bourjois Healthy mix concealer
- Yves Rocher Velvety loose powder
- Yves Rocher Natural blush Rosé medium
- Yves Rocher Intense color duo eyeshadow 23-Or et Ultra marine (zlata senčka kot osvetljevalec)

Saturday fitness post: The ideal diet

I got idea for today's post when I went for a morning walk. And today's post is about the ideal diet plan, the ideal diet for anyone. And the truth is, I believe there is no universal diet for everyone.

Source: Pinterest.

Many people are slightly surprised when I tell them I am vegan: "But you don't push others to stop eating meat or publish pictures of animals suffering on your facebook wall ..." or whatever "typical vegans" do. No, I don't or I rarely do (I post what is worth publishing), because I believe that if you point out something, you give power towards it. I'd rather post about Japan banning whale hunting for example, because it's good news.

Anyways, my best advice for "ideal diet" is to listen to your body. I personally enjoy and benefit from vegan gluten-free diet, so that's the way I eat. I stopped eating other foods, because I didn't feel right after eating it, or I got intolerant or it made me feel heavy or it made me feel sick or caused stomach ache. Right now vegan feels right for me and I don't feel deprived at all.

You can study every diet on the planet and try to stick to certain kind of diet, but you don't feel OK and don't enjoy it or you feel deprived, body needs something else. Choosing the right diet for you is like a yoga practice - listen to your body, do whatever feels good for you, don't push it or force it, don't exaggerate ... The ideal diet is the one that benefits you and environment.

(I'm talking about real foods - processed foods don't count as real foods :)).

So, have you found your ideal diet yet? :)
