• Products I Regret Buying •

Mnogo volim da čitam postove na ovu temu, pa sam i sama odlučila da napišem jedan takav. Uvek se trudim da u svakom kozmetičkom proizvodu koji kupim, nadjem bar neku pozitivnu stvar u vezi njega iako mi se možda on ne svidja. Ali, danas predstavljam neke stvarčice koje nisu ispunile moja očekivanja i koje više nikad ne bih kupila.

I love reading posts on this topic, so I decided to write one of those. I always try to find at least one positive thing about every cosmetic product that I buy even though I may not love It. But today I present you a few things that did not meet my expectations and ones that I would never buy again.

• Rimmel Scandal Eyes Extreme Black Mascara

Pa, da počnemo sa šminkom. Iako, kako ste već milion puta mogli da pročitate u mojim postovima, obožavam Maybelline maskare, odlučila sam da isprobam i nešto drugo, a to je u ovom slučaju Rimmel maskara. I pre kupovine, naravno, krenula sam u istraživanje ove maskare i čitanje raznih komentara o njoj i na prvi pogled mislila sam da ima veoma dobru četkicu koja dosta sliči onoj na Maybelline maskarama, pa sam je i kupila. Ali, razočarala me je u svakom pogledu.
Što se tiče četkice, prevelika je i sa njom je nemoguće precizno naneti maskaru, tako da mi ona veoma često ne završi samo na trepavicama. Takodje, čini mi se kao da su dlake na četkici napravljene od gume što još dodatno komplikuje upotrebu.
Iako ovu maskaru svi reklamiraju kao neku čija je boja veoma intezivna crna, to apsolutno nije slučaj.
Iako uvek koristim uvijač za trepavice, volim da i moja maskara obavlja dobru ulogu u produžavanju i davanju volumena, to se kod Rimmel maskare apsolutno nije desilo. Kad god sam je koristila, činilo mi se da i ne nosim maskaru na očima.

Well, let's start with the makeup. Although, as you already read a million times on our blog, I love Maybelline mascaras, I decided to try something else, and that is, in this case, Rimmel mascara. And before buying It, of course, I started to research this mascara and reading the various comments about It and at first glance I thought that It has a very good brush that looks a lot of like Maybelline mascaras brush, so I bought it. But, It disappointed me in every way. 
The brush is too big and it is impossible to accurately apply mascara, so It very often does not finish only on my lashes. Also, it seems like the hairs on the brush are made of rubber which additionally complicates the use. 
Although this mascara is said to be one of those which color is very intense black, this is absolutely not the case. 
Even though I always use an eyelash curler, I love it when my mascara does a good role in prolonging and giving volume to my lashes and with Rimmel mascara that absolutely did not happen. Whenever I use it, it seems like I do not wear mascara at all.

• Rimmel Scandal Eyes Thick & Thin Eyeliner

Zbog ovog proizvoda zamrzela sam sve eyeliner-e u obliku flomastera! Kad sam ga prvi put koristila, moram priznati, i nisam bila nešto posebno razočarana ovim proizvodom. U početku, jedina zamerka mi je bila boja, koja i nije baš toliko intezivna što se da primetiti na slici. Ovaj eyeliner ima i dobro napravljenu četkicu, odnosno taj vrh kojim možete izvlačiti i tanke i deblje linije. Ali, posle samo nekoliko upotreba sam primetila da mi ponestaje ovog proizvoda. Odnosno, na dnu i sa strane ovog aplikatora je bilo sasvim dovoljno proizvoda, ali na samom vrhu, tj. krajnjem delu kojim nanosite eyeliner, nije bilo dovoljno proizvoda. Ni sama ne znam zašto je to tako, ali zbog ovog, više nikad nisam imala želju da kupim flomaster eyeliner-e.

Because of this product I started to hate all the eyeliners in the form of a pen! When I first used it, I have to admit, I was not fully disappointed. At first, only bad thing was thr color, which is not very intense as you can notice in the picture. This eyeliner has a well-made brush, and with It you can draw thin and thick lines. But after only a few uses I noticed that I'm running out of this product. That is, the bottom and the sides of the applicator were full with product, but on the top which you use to apply eyeliner, product was running out. I do not even know why this was happening, but because of this, I never had the desire to buy a pen eyeliners.

• Essence Eyebrow Designer

 

Ovu olovku u boji 04 Blonde sam probala nakon dugog korišćenja fantastične Essence senke za obrve. Odlučila sam se za ovu nijansu jer je ona, čini mi se, najsvetlija od svih u ponudi i kad sam prvi put otvorila olovku mislila sam da će mi fantastično odgovarati. Ali, boja je bila znatno drugačija, odnosno znatno svetlija kad sam prvi put pokušala da njom popunim obrve. Takodje, nisam uspela ni da ravnomerno nanesem ovaj proizvod.

This eyebrow pen is in the color 04 Blonde. I tried It after a long use of stunning Essence eyebrow shadow . I decided to get this shade because it was the lightest one of all offered and when I first opened the pen I thought it would suit me fantastically. But the color was significantly different, much brighter when I first tried It to fill my eyebrows. Also, I have not managed to put this product evenly on my eyebrows.

• Aura četkica

Veliki sam ljubitelj Aura četkica. Mislim da imam svaku koja je u ponudi, ali ovo je jedina koju nisam uspela da zavolim. U pitanju je četkica koja je u sastavu pakovanja u kojem dobijate 3 četkice i mislim da je na tom pakovanju pisalo da je ova četkica namenjena aplikacija rumenila. To apsolutno nije bilo moguće zbog njene veličine, tako da sam ja nekoliko puta probala da je iskoristim za upotrebu pudera u prahu, ali ona nažalost nije obavljala svoju ulogu. Njom nisam uspela da zahvatim dovoljnu količinu pudera, i nakon nekog vremena počela je sve više i više da gubi dlake.

I'm a big fan of Aura brushes. I think I have all of them, but this is the only one I could not fall in love with. It is a brush that is part of the package where you get 3 brushes and I think that in this package it is said that you use It for blush application.  That was absolutely not possible due to its size, so I tried several times to use it for loose powder application, but unfortunately it has not performed its role. It never managed to draw out a sufficient amount of the powder, and after a while It began to lose a lot of hair.

•Garnier Purifying Gel & Refreshing Vitaminised Toner

U polju kozmetike, odabrala sam dva Garnier proizvoda kojima uopšte nisam zadovoljna. U pitanju su gel za čišćenje lica i tonik. Gel je sa ekstraktom grejpfruta i namenjen je za masnu kožu i moram da napomenem da ima divan citrusan miris, a tonik takodje sadrži grejpfrut i namenjen je za kombinovanu kožu.
Gel ima penastu strukturu i dobro obavlja svoju ulogu u čišćenju kože, ali su mi se zbog njega, na koži posle prve upotrebe počele javljati bubuljice.
Tonik sam koristila više puta, nije uzrokovao da mi se išta pojavi na koži, ali zato nije perfektno obavljao ulogu u skidanju nečistoća i ostataka šminke sa lica, a da bih uvek koristila neki tonik, on mora da obavlja i tu funkciju.

Da li ste vi koristili neki od ovih proizvoda? Kakvi su vaši utisci?

In the field of cosmetics, I chose two Garnier products for this post- the gel cleanser and toner.
The gel has extract of grapefruit In It , It Is designed for oily skin and It has a delightful citrusy scent.   
The toner also contains grapefruit extract and is designed for mixed skin.  
The gel has a foamy structure and It's good at performing its role in cleansing the skin, but because of It, my skin started breaking out immediately after firts use. 
I used toner several times. It did not cause my skin to break out, but It didn't performed perfectly the role in removing any left over makeup of my face.

Have you ever used any of these products? What do you think of them?
