Little Summer Haul featuring only new products and no replacements. There are a few skincare items, a hair spray and two makeup products.
Blistex Conditioning Lip Serum
I saw this on Mateja's blog and I run to get it. I had a few lip balms that I wanted to use up before buying a new one but ever since I used up Avon's lip oil, nothing really worked for my chapped lips. This Blistex one has such a thin consistency that I didn't believe it would work on my dry lips but it did. I use it before I go to sleep and my lips have been in great shape for weeks, no more dry patches. It's a bit annoying to use because it's so thin but I just apply a thin layer and it's okay.
Revlon Uniq One Hair Treatment
My last Revlon Uniq One will be empty soon, so I ordered a new one. This time I went for a different, original version. I liked the Green Tea one but I didn't get the hype around it. This one feels the same, the scent is very strong and salon-like (not in a good way). Next time I will get the Green Tea version or any other that they have. I like it as a spray, nothing special though, I mostly use it for heat protection.
Catrice Longlasting Prime and Fine Multitalent Fixing Spray
I ran out of my last bottle of Essence Keep It Perfect Fixing Spray and it's discontinued so I grabbed the next best thing according to blogs and Instagram. I like that the mist is fine, so you don't get big drops on your face. It's okay, it doesn't help with keeping my face matte but it nicely melts the makeup together and gets rid of the powdery finish.
Nivea Love Sunshine Shower Gel and Afrodita Shower Moments Happy Cream Oil Shower Gel
Müller had some shower gels on sale, so I grabbed the most summery ones. I have had the Nivea Love Sunshine on my WL since last year because I really like the scent. The Afrodita one also smells nice, like creamy oranges and I just adore anything citrus scented. The texture of both is creamy but Afrodita's also has some oil for nourishment.
Wet n Wild Big Poppa Mascara*
This is the latest mascara that I got but I haven't tested it fully yet. It contains some ingredients that stimulate lash growth - castor oil, omega 6 fatty acids, and essentials proteins. It has a medium-sized hourglass-shaped brush. I tried the mascara a couple of times and I liked it, it lengthens the lashes, it's very black and it doesn't feel heavy. I also didn't notice it would smudge. I still need to test it out more.
CeraVe PM Facial Moisturising Lotion
I had this cream on my WL for a long time and I finally decided to give it a try. I got it from Notino and I don't know if it's the same as the American version. I heard different things, some say it's the same formula and others that it's different. It comes with a pump which I love. It has a lightweight creamy and not thick formula that sinks into the skin fast. It doesn't leave a film and I feel it gives quite a semi-matte finish to the skin. It also didn't break me out. I'm definitely repurchasing.
One more thing: CeraVe products are now also available in physical stores and pharmacies in Slovenia.
