Pupa Luminys Blush 07 and Essence 73 Replay

Pupa Luminys velvety baked blush 07 - I found these blushes in Limoni. Honestly, I had no idea Pupa has baked blushes that look similar to Mac's MSF. There are 6 shades available, 3 are bronze-golden shades, 06 was a pink with some purple (pink with a blue undertone), 07 is a pink and 08 is a bright coral but on my skin it looked very orange. These have a very luminous finish, however I actually didn't find them more luminous than Benefit's Coralista or NARS Orgasm. 07 looks like a mix of NARS Orgasm and Deep Throat on my skin tone, pink but with some peach, a fantastic shade for someone as pale as me. The packaging looks so cheap though. It's a mix of clear and milky plastic, honestly I would expect something like that from a blush for a couple of � and not for 20. However it's sturdy, you don't have the feeling that the lid might broke off at any moment. The little brush that comes with it (it's not in any of the pictures) is surprisingly useful. It lasted all day on me, it loses a bit of brightness, but still looks ok (as far as longevity goes Coralista wins hand down). All in all a great blush, but the packaging needs some upgrading.

Replay is one of the new shades of Essence's Multi Dimension XXXL Shine nail polishes. It another turquoise/teal shade that I love. This one has more green in it than Essence You belong to me. I apologize for the shoddy application, the formula of the nail polish is very thick but that's not my main problem. The problem is in the top coat from the same brand which is horrible (but base coat is fine). It just doesn't dry like forever. I really miss my faithful Essie Good 2 Go.   

February Favourites

Here are my favourite/most used products in February:

• John Frieda Brilliant Brunette Conditioner - review can be found here, I love how the scent lingers for days.
• L'Occitane Almond shower oil - (click for review) I know I probably sound like a broken record, but I just adore the scent of it.
• E.l.f. Tinted Moisturizer - I just purchased it recently and I wore it almost every day in the last month. (click for review)
• Benefit Coralista
• Max Factor white eyeliner
• Jemma Kidd highlighter in 01 Ice Gold
• Mac fluidline in blacktracks
• Mac lipstick in crem� cup
• Nyx soft mat lip cream in Istanbul

In the last month I basically wore the same make up every day - a thin black line (with Mac's fluidline) on the top lash line, Max Factors white eyeliner in the waterline, mascara (I just bought a new one, Million lashes by L'Oreal), Tinted moisturizer by E.l.f. with some Bourjois Healthy Mix concealer, Coralista on the cheeks and Jemma Kidd's higlighter. On the lips I mostly wore NYX's Istanbul or Mac's Creme Cup.

Have a great day!

Benefit Silky-finish Lipstick Jing-a-ling

Is a neutral pink with micro gold shimmer. It's very creamy and moisturizing, it almost looks like a gloss when applied on the lips.

Je nevtralne roza barve z mikro zlatimi ble�cicami, zelo kremna in vla�ilna. Na ustnicah izgleda skoraj kot glos.

A couple of years ago I had Artdeco Glossy Lip Care in number 30, which looks very similar to Benefit's one. I do in fact prefer the Artdeco one, since it's more moisturizing.

Pred nekaj leti sem imela Artdeco Glossy Lip Care �tevilko odtenka 30, ki izgleda zelo podobna Benefitovi �minki. Artdecova mi je bolj v�ec, saj je veliko bolj vla�ilna.
