*Guest Post*
*English only*
Long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, lovely gothy lady Arnela wrote a guest post on my blog, and she was kind enough to write another one this time. You can read her previous post here, and I hope you'll enjoy reading this one, too. ☺
Hello everyone!
Today I will be doing a
guest post for the lovely Teky! I will be reviewing my favorite MAC lipsticks!
I currently own over 30 of them and it was hard to pick a few favorites. I
settled down for my top 6! My pup Boycie will be assisting me in this arduous
task since God knows he´s chewed on enough of them ☺.
My top 6 MAC lippies are: (top to bottom)
-Candy Yum Yum, Russian Red, Diva, Smoked
Purple, Rebel, Heroine!
Candy Yum Yum - is a matte lippie with a blue
undertone. Even though it is considered a “summer color”, I wear it all year-round!
The formula is surprisingly non-drying for a matte lipstick. However, I always
prep my lips before using any of the MAC matte or retro matte lipsticks! I
exfoliate with Lush Bubblegum lip-peeling and apply MAC´s Prep and Prime for
the lips. This combination is yet to let me down! I usually pair the bold lip
look with a simple cat-eye or apply a heavy smoky-eye look!
Russian Red - Do I have to say anything
about this lipstick? It is the most stunning red color ever! I have over 20 red
lipsticks in my collection and this is hands-down my favorite of all time! It
is a matte formula and really drying but as I said, prep your lips!
Diva - A lovely vampire burgundy red! If
you are going for the glam vamp look, Diva is your best friend! Another matte
lipstick, no surprise here as this is my favorite formula. Diva is the longest
lasting of the lot, I really have no care in the world once I put it on. It
lasts and lasts… even after meals and drinks.
Because of this it is also the most drying out of this group.
Smoked Purple - This lipstick is actually
from the Professional line and I had to get it online because my local MAC
stockist didn´t have it! It is really
hard to get in Europe, but where there is a will… ☺It is
a matte formula and applies wonderfully! It is not patchy or drying, I find it
to be really creamy. None of these lipsticks bleed or crease, but I usually
apply a lipliner with them.
Rebel - Rebel is the only satin lipstick in this group but rightly deserves it´s
place. This is a lovely magentic-plum color and looks flattering on every skin
tone! On some lips it is more of a
berry-red color, I find this especially so in photos! In real life, it is more
of a magenta, at least on my lips! All these are part of the permanent range,
so you can get them anytime!
Last but no least … HEROINE! The
undisputable Queen of MAC lipsticks! This color is so incredibly popular that
is was made part of the permanent range last year (I think). Prior to being made permanent, it was available from time to time in MAC´s
limited editions. This lovely violet matte lipstick is a perfect combination of
femininity and well..heroism! And which
lady wouldn´t want to be a Heroine, right? ;) This color applies so smooth and
creamy, it a s bit different from the
other mattes! It last incredibly well, even after meals and drinks. On a night
out, I hardly ever have to touch my lips up.
I hope you enjoyed my TOP 6 list, I would
really go on forever since these lipsticks can do no wrong ☺ I would highly recommend these as well for those who are interested
in MAC lipsticks: Flat Out Fabulous, Silly, Ruby Woo, Lady Danger, Cyber,
Velvet Teddy, Pink Nouveau, Snob, Violetta, Saint Germain, Sin, Film Noir.
Thank you Teky for inviting me to do the
guest post!
Thank you, Arnela, for writing it ☺ Arnela is an alternative model from Bihać, but currently lives and studies in Austria. She is an Ph.D student in English literature. She recently made a modeling facebook page so please show your support - visit her page and click 'like'. ☺

*Croatian only*
Lovely Pink je, kako joj i samo ime kaže, jedna nježna, fina nijansa roze. Rekla bih da je nude roza, s toplijim podtonom, pa mrvicu vuče ma breskvastu nijansu. Biti ću iskrena, ovu sam nijansu uzela impulsivno, jer se nikako nisam mogla zamisliti s njom (ipak sam ja ljubitelj tamnih ruževa
), no na kraju mi se jako svidjela. Ovdje se radi o mat ružu, ali nije presuh i lijepo se razmazuje. Pigmentacija mu je odlična, te ćete u jednom premazu dobiti željenu nijansu. Meni se nije uvlačio u linijice na usnama, niti ih isušivao. Trajnost mu je poprilično dobra, bez jela i pića na mojim usnama je trajao 6-7 sati. Piće preživi bez popravka, no hranu ipak ne. Mislim da je ova nijansa idealna za proljeće i ljeto i vjerujem da bi stajala većini podtonova kože.
Ja ga najviše volim kombinirati sa šarenijim makeup-om, nekako mi je baš vesela nijansa. 
Long time ago in a galaxy far far away....
... ili galaksiji zvanoj Kiseljak, Ena, Ema, moja malenkost i naš vodič Nikolina smo se uputile u magični dvorac zvanu Galant. To je divan dvorac pun šarenih, predivnih, magičnih makeup stvarčica. Nas tri smo izgledale kao djeca u prodavaonici slatkiša, a Nikolina je bila strpljiva i divna, te je trčala od jedne do druge da nam pomogne pri potrazi i izboru.
Uz posjet Galantu, posjetili smo i fini restorančić, najele se "ka ljudi", popile litre kave i ispričale "ka ljudi".
U svakom slučaju - jedan predivan, opuštajući, ženski dan i nadam se da će se opet nekada ponoviti.
U postu New in #4 sam pokazala svoj ulov iz Galanta, a danas vam pišem o tri Flormar ruža, od koja su dva iz Supershine, a jedan iz Supermatte linije.
Ruževi iz obje linije dolaze u plastičnom mat pakiranju, koje oblikom podsjeća na pješčani sat, te je vizualno veoma zanimljivo, no nažalost ne može stati u stalak za ruževe. Ne smatram to velikim minusom, no vrijedi spomenuti.
U pakiranju dobijete 4.2g proizvoda, te ga treba potrošiti u roku 18 mjeseci. Na zatvaraču se nalazi naljepnica sa sastojcima, nazivom nijanse, kao i drugim informacijama vezanim za proizvod. Nisam sigurna kolika im je točna cijena u Flormar prodavaonici u Sarajevu (mislim oko 5-6KM), u Mostaru u Diadema prodavaonici je 3,5 KM, dok je u Galantu punih 2,30 KM!!! Ja sam gotovo pala u nesvijest kad sam vidjela cijenu. A kakvi si ruževi za tu cijenu, saznajte u nastavku.
Pošto sam bila u potrazi za nekim nude, nenapadnim, "dnevnim" nijansama ruževa izabrala sam sljedeća tri ljepotana.

Supermatte 207 Lovely Pink
Lovely Pink je, kako joj i samo ime kaže, jedna nježna, fina nijansa roze. Rekla bih da je nude roza, s toplijim podtonom, pa mrvicu vuče ma breskvastu nijansu. Biti ću iskrena, ovu sam nijansu uzela impulsivno, jer se nikako nisam mogla zamisliti s njom (ipak sam ja ljubitelj tamnih ruževa
Supershine 524 Latte Lips
Latte Lips je tamnija nude nijansa, koju bi ja opisala kao boja bijele kave (odatle vjerovatno i latte u imenu) toplog podtona. Tekstura mu je nešto kremastija od Lovely Pink, te, iako ima supershine u nazivu, finiš mu je polu-mat. Pigmentacija mu je također na visokom nivou. Iako je nude, ne djeluje "isprano" i ne daje onaj mrtvački izgled usnama (iako ja i protiv takvih nemam ništa, haha
). Također se ne uvlači u linije, niti isušuje usne, a trajnost mu je mrvicu kraća od supermatte ruža, oko 4-5 sati. Ipak treba popravak i nakon pića.
Njega najviše volim kombinirati uz smeđi smokey eye.
Supershine 517 My Favorite Bordeaux
My Favorite Bordeaux nije bordo nijansa, kako ime kaže, već tamna mauve roza. Ja bih ju najradije opisala kao boju mesa. Također je toplijeg podtona i kremaste teksture, te je nešto malo sjajniji od Latte Lips. Kao i prethodna dva, ne uvlači se u linije i ne isušuje. Trajnost mu je kao i kod Latte Lips. Od ova tri ruža - on je najčešće u uporabi. On je bio prvi na kojega mi je oko zapelo, a kupila sam i jedan primjerak mami, jer je tražila ovakvu nijansu.
I njoj se jako sviđa. Njega kombiniram uz razne lookove, bilo da se radi o šarenijem makeupu ili neutralnim nijansama. Nije napadna nijansa, no opet dolazi do izražaja, te mislim da bi stajala većini podtonova. Ovo mi je baš nekako "neutral, but not so neutral" nijansa.
A dobila sam i pohvale za njega
.
Zaključak: ruževi su mi se jako svidjeli, i veoma često su u uporabi. Nijanse su pogodne za dnevne varijante, ali i za večernje, za one koji vole nenapadan makeup. Omjer cijene i kvalitete je zaista odličan, te se Flormar još jednom pokazao kao firma koja zaista ima odlične i kvalitetne proizvode. Definitivno ću si nabaviti još nijansi, te ću postati novi Pokemon trener - moram skupit sve!! Hahaha.
Jeste li probali Flormar Supershine i Supermatte ruževe? Imate li vi neki favorit među Flormar kolekcijom?

Ayooo!
O P2 Pure Color ruževima 042 Madison Square & 100 Oxford Street ste već mogli čitati u ovom postu, a nedavno im se pridružio i novi član u nijansi veoma simpatičnog imena - 087 Baker Street. Također, u istom postu sam navela mojeg "dilera" za P2 proizvode ☺, jer ih nažalost nema na našem tržištu.
You could already read about P2 Pure Color lipsticks in 042 Madison Square & 100 Oxford Street in this post, and a new member with a very likable name joined them recently - 087 Baker Street. Also, in the same post I wrote a name of my "dealer" of P2 products ☺, because, unfortunately, they are not available in our market.

Ruž dolazi u plastičnom, srebrnom pakiranju, karakterističnom za Pure Color liniju. Pakiranje je poprilično čvrsto, te se neće otvoriti dok ga nosite u torbi (isprobano ☺). Miris mu je isti kao i kod prethodna dva - veoma blag i nenapadan. Tekstura je također kremasta, dobre pigmentacije, te polu mat finiša. Trajnost je srednja, otprilike 3 sata. Piće može preživjeti, hranu baš i ne, no sa P2 bazom za usne potraje i duže i ne skida se tako lako. Ne isušuje usne, no opet bih savjetovala dobar piling prije nanošenja ruža. ☺ Nigdje nisam primjetila kolika je gramaža, no vjerujem da je oko 4g, te se treba potrošiti u roku 24 mjeseci. A evo i lista sastojaka:
Lipstick comes in a plastic, silver packaging, typical for Pure Color collection. The packaging is quite solid, and it won't open while you carry it in a bag (tested ☺). The scent is the same as with other two lipstick - very mild and unassertive. The texture is also creamy, with good pigmentation, and semi-matte finish. Durability is medium, it lasts about 3 hours. It can survive the drink, but not the food, but with P2 lip base it lasts even longer and it doesn't come off easily. It doesn't dry lips out, but I would recommend a good peeling before applying the lipstick. ☺ I haven't notice the amount of product anywhere, but I believe it's around 4g, and it should be used within 24 months. And here is the list of ingredients:
087 Baker Street je jedna divna svjetla malinasta nijansa. Nije ni crvena, a ni ružičasta, nego baš jedna lijepa mješavina obje. U pakiranju izgleda tamnije nego na swatchu i usnama, gdje više vuče na ružičastu. Iako nije moj prvi izbor, nijansa mi se jako svidjela. Baš je osvježavajuća i ljetna, te će ruž definitivno biti često u uporabi. ☺ A i tko bi odolio Sherlock-ovskom imenu. ☺
087 Baker Street is a lovely light raspberry shade. It is not red, not pink, but a nice mix of both. It looks darker in the packaging than on the swatch and lips, where it leans more towards pink. Although it is not my first choice, I really like this shade. It is really refreshing and summery, and the lipstick will definitely be used often. ☺ And who could resist Sherlock-esque name. ☺
Cijena P2 Pure Color ruževa je oko 2€ i mogu se nabaviti samo u Njemačkoj.
Price of P2 Pure Color lipsticks is around 2€ and they can be purchased only in Germany.
Jeste li već probali P2 ruževe? Koje su vaše najdraže nijanse ruževa?
Have you tried P2 lipsticks? What is your favorite shade of lipstick?

Greetings mortals!
Danas vam pišem o dva ruža, koja ste mogli vidjeti u New in #1 postu, a koje mi je iz "bijelog svijeta" donijela moja Lea. Riječ je o P2 Pure Color lipsticks u nijansama 042 Madison Square i 100 Oxford street. Do sada nisam imala priliku probati P2 proizvode, jer ih nažalost nema na našim prostorima, a čitajući uglavnom dobre recenzije o njima, poželjela sam probati barem nešto. Tako sam, čim sam saznala da ode u "bijeli svijet", zamolila Leu da mi donese nešto od P2. Pošto dobro poznaje moj ukus, odabrala je dvije nijanse koje ja veoma volim.
Today I decided to write about two lipsticks, which you could see in New in #1 post, and were brought to me by my friend Lea. They are P2 Pure Color lipsticks in 042 Madison Square and 100 Oxford street. So far I haven't had the opportunity to try P2 products, because, unfortunately, they are unavailable in my area, and reading mostly good review about them, I've wanted to try something. So, as soon as I found out she was going to the "white world", I asked Lea to bring me something of P2. Since she knows my taste very well, she chose two shades I really like.

Ruževi dolaze u čvrstom, plastičnom, srebrnom pakiranju. Miris je poprilično blag, gotovo neprimjetan, nije slatkast, već baš onako tipičan za miris ruža. Ruževi su kremaste teksture, lako mazivi i veoma dobre pigmentacije, te polu mat finiša. Iako mi nisu isušivali, niti dodatno isticali suhe dijelove usana, opet bih preporučila piling usana prije nanošenja.
Lipsticks come in solid, plastic, silver packaging. The scent is quite mild, almost unnoticeable, it's not sweet, but more as a typical lipstick scent. Lipsticks have creamy texture, good pigmentation, they are easily applied and have a semi-matte finish. Although they didn't dry out, or emphasize the dry parts of my lips, I'd still recommend a lip peeling before applying a lipstick.

Trajnost im je srednja, rekla bih. Meni su na usnama trajali nekoliko sati, piće čak i prežive, ali hranu ne, tako da im treba popravak. No i tada gube na intenzitetu duž cijelih usana jednako, tako da nećete imati onu čudnu "rupu" na usnama, a ruž samo na rubovima.
Durability is medium, I'd say. They lasted few hours on my lips, they survived the drink, but not the food, so you need to re-apply them. But even then, they lose their intensity equally along the entire lips, so you won't have strange "gap" on your lips and lipstick only on edges.

Madison Square je divna ljubičasta nijansa. U pakiranju izgleda poprilično tamno, no na usnama ima jednu finu tamnu nijansu fuksije. Kako sam već i navela, nije mi isušivao usne, te nema osjećaja težine. Njega sam čak i češće koristila od Oxford Street-a.
Madison Square is a lovely purple shade. It looks really dark in the packaging, but it has a nice dark fuchsia shade on the lips. As I've already mentioned, it did not dry out my lips, and there is no sense of weight. I used it more than Oxford Street.
Oxford Street je divna crvena nijansa. Crvenih ruževa nikada dosta, ako se mene pita. ☺ Pošto me Oxford Street podsjeća na London, očekivala sam tamniju nijansu cigle, no podton ruža je ipak malo hladniji (iako se to po slikama možda i ne primjeti). Mislim da bi ova nijansa stajala svim podtonovima kože.
Oxford Street is a lovely red shade. There can never be enough of red lipsticks, if you ask me. ☺ Since Oxford Street reminds me of London, I expected a dark brick shade, but the undertone of this lipstick is a bit on the cold side (although you might not notice it on the pictures). I think this shade would fit most skin undertones.
Ruževi se mogu nabaviti u Njemačkoj u Dm-u, i cijena im je oko 2€, što je i više nego pristupačno. Ja sam jako zadovoljna ruževima, i baš je šteta što ih nema na našim prostorima.
Lipsticks are available in Germany in Dm, and they cost around 2€, which is more than affordable. I am very pleased with these lipsticks and it's really a shame we don't have them here.
Jeste li probali P2 ruževe?
