Neke novosti.
U petak nam se Daniel Sallstrom vratio u londonsku Illamasquu. Nakon brzinskog razgovora o njegovom iskustvu, dao mi je neke odlicne savjete zbog kojih se jos vise veselim svemu sto dolazi. Nadam se da cu moci u ne tako dalekoj buducnosti posjetiti njega i kolege u Londonu.

Ovo je zadnji tjedan skole, tuga i cemer. U utorak nam kao gost predavac na uvodu u fantasy dolazi Simona Antonovic, a u cetvrtak je ispit. Uspjela sam se napokon zadrzati na jednoj ideji sto cu napraviti na ispitu. Sigurna sam da cemo svi napraviti odlican posao, te cu obavezno poslikati i staviti slike ovdje.

Newsflash.
Last Friday our Daniel Sallstorm went home to Illamasqua London. After a speedy conversation about his experience in the business, he gave me some great tips, and something more to look forward to in the future. I hope I'll be able to visit him and colleagues in London in the near future.


This is the last school week, sadness and depression. Simona Antonovic will be our guest teacher on introduction to fantasy on Tuesday, following with the exam on Thursday. I managed to hold to just one idea for the exam. I'm sure we will all do great, as you will see on the pictures I plan to take and publish here.

S obzirom da nisam pisala neko vrijeme, imam cak i opravdanje. Trala, bila sam busy. Ali je i ostvaren novi projekt i suradnja. Postala sam vizazist za snimanja i tecajeve u Fotoklubu Zagreb pod vodstvom Damira Tiljaka. Jucer je bilo prvo snimanje, i nakon par srcanih udara i znojenja, ipak je sve proslo u redu. Slijedi par slika slikano mobitelom, a slijedece nedjelje cu staviti i fotke sa snimanja.

I know it took me ages to write something, but I do have an excuse. Yes, I was busy. And I have a new project. I became a make up artist for shoots and classes in Fotoklub Zagreb with Damir Tiljak. The first shoot was yesterday, and after a few sweaty heart attacks, everything went accordingly to the  plan. Few mobile phone pictures following. This Sunday you can expect pictures from the shoot.

Illamasqua tjedan #3

Ovaj tjedan (tj. sad vec prosli) na predavanjima obradili smo teme tusa i umjetnih trepavica. Vazan dio bio je procjenjivanje oblika ociju te nacin kako oblikovati oci u savrseni oblik. Posebno sam se fokusirala na nanosenje tusa na spustene kapke. Vjezbom do savrsenstva!

Premda sam prvi put u zivotu uopce imala umjetne trepavice u rukama a i na ocima (ne brojimo onih par puta kad sam uspjela zeznuti trepavice s ljepilom bez da sam ih krenula stavljati uopce), mislim da je proslo odlicno. Jos par puta nakon toga sam stavljala i izgleda da sam pohvatala, partii! Slike mozete vidjeti u prijasnjem postu.

Kao i uvijek, prije nego zavrsim s temom Illamasquine skole, par rijeci mudrosti.

Prije nanosenja tusa uvijek, ali uvijek (i to tvrdim i za sve ostalo) procijenite dobro oblik oka i sto tocno treba napraviti da bi se postigao zeljeni efekt. Isto tako i kod trepavica, duzina kraljeznice, debljina, mjesto na kapku na koje cete ih instalirati. Znam da zvuci mutavo, ali iznenadili biste se..


This week on Illamasqua class we got to the eyeliner and false lashes topic. The important part was understanding all the shapes and sizes of the eye and a way to make them perfect. My focus was applying the eyeliner on hooded eyes. Practice makes perfect!


Although it was my first time using lashes and applying them to someone else (not counting a few times I screwed up the lashes without even starting to apply them), I think it went great. I practiced a few times after the class and it looks like I can handle it quite well, woo! Some of the pictures are in the post below.


As always, I am finishing the Illamasqua class topic with a few words of wisdom.


Before applying the eyeliner, always, and I do mean always (as for everything else), look at the eye, examine it and understand what do you need to do to get that wanted look. Same thing with the lashes, the size and lenght, thickness, where excatly will you place it on the lid. I know it sounds silly, but I've seen things..

Awesome sunset eye

Stigao mi je prije par dana i set trepavica s Ebaya za koje sam se zacudila koliko su zapravo nelose. Za usporedbu imam i dva para Illamasquinih trepavica.

A few days I go I got a set of lashes from Ebay which suprised me how not bad they are. For comparison I also have two Illamasqua sets.

Naravno da su razlike izmedu setova ogromne. Trepavice iz Illamasque imaju gumenu kraljeznicu, lagane su i mekane, lako se nanose i izgledaju prekrasno na ocima.S obzirom na tu gumenu kraljeznicu, bez problema cete ih moci vise puta koristiti. Zao mi je, ali ne znam tocno kako se cijene krecu, predlazem da pogledate na njihovoj stranici.

Ako vas zanimaju ove trepavice s Ebaya, evo linka. Pretpostavljala sam da ce biti papiraste i nikakve, ali su cak dovoljno u redu da ih mozete staviti par puta. Pripazite jedino kada cete ih prvi puta skidati s ambalaze, jer su ih malo previse zalijepili.

Ofcourse, the difference is huge. Illamasqua lashes have a rubber spine, they are light and soft, easy to apply and look fantastic. Considering the fact of the rubber spine, you will have no problem re-using them. Unfortunately, I don't know exactly the prices, so check them out on Illamasqua website.


Link for the Ebay lashes is here. Although I thought they will be paper like and easy to break, they are good enough to use a couple of times. But watch out when removing them from the box, they are glued quite firmly.





Ovako izgleda Illamasqua ljepilo koje se dobije zajedno sa trepavicama. Kolicina proizvoda je 1ml. To je ljepilo koje se vise nego isplati imati u svojem kovcegu, jer je jedno od najjacih i najboljih. Ima fluorescentno  zelenkasti odsjaj, i lagano se pretvara u prozirno na trepavicama, po cemu znate tocno kad je ljepilo dovoljno ljepljivo da mozete stavljati trepavicu na kapak.

This is how Illamasqua glue that comes in a box with the lashes looks like. There is 1ml of product in there. It's one of the best glues on the market and a must have in your make up case. It has a fluorescentish green glow and with time turns transparent, and that's how you know it's time to apply the lash.

In The Meantime..

Pripremam duugacak post, najvjerojatnije ce sutra biti spreman za publiku. U meduvremenu se poigrah sa  UD Naked paletom i umjetnim trepavicama.

Writing a quite long post that will probably be ready tomorrow. In the meantime I played with some Urban Decay Naked Palette and lashes.

Nakon par upita, odlucila sam pisati postove na hrvatskom i egleskom. Neda mi se, ali budem.
Uglavnom. Danas sam odlucila osvrnuti se malo na neke proizvode koje sam nedavno nabavila.
Stigli su mi semplići s Mad Minerals stranice, njih desetak. Vecina njih se moze koristiti u bilokoje svrhe (usne, oci, kao rumenilo itd), sto je odlicno. Boje su im genijalne, pigmentacija odlicna, a blendanje je uzitak.
Nijanse koje sam ja koristila na slijedecim slikama su Nature Lover, Java i Eroticism.

After few of your remarks, I decided to write my posts on both English and Croatian. Although I'm lazy. So there.
This post will contain pictures and info on the new products I got recently. Samples from  Mad Minerals came few days ago. Most of them are multipurpose (lips, eyes, face ect), which is great. Colours are amazing, pigmentation excellent, blending is a pleasure. Shades I used on the following pictures are Nature LoverJava, and Eroticism.







Nijansom java sam zajedno sa Illamasqua Sealing Gel naglasila i ispunila obrve, Eroticism je iznad pregiba a Nature Lover na kapku i kao liner ispod oka (takoder u kombinaciji sa Illamasqua SG).

Eyebrows are filled with Java shade combined with Illamasqua Sealing gel, Eroticism is over the crease, and Nature Lover on the eyelid and as a liner under the eye (also with Illamasqua SG).





Obozavam Illamasquin Sealing Gel. U sekundi pretvori svu sminku u vodootpornu, sjenila u ruzeve (ne bas ruzeve, ali da), linere. Odlicna stvar. Mislim da sam spomenula vec, u kutijici (mislim da je cijena 99 kn u ducanu na Cvjetnom), dolaze dvije bocice, svaka po 6 ml. Sporo se trosi jer je dovoljna samo kap. Treba pripaziti kod nanosenja, brzo se susi.

I adore Illamasqua Sealing Gel. In a second all your make up turns waterproof, eyeshadows can be applied as a lipstick (you know what I mean), liners. Awesome. Although I probably mentioned before, in this little black box (cca 99kn), you will get two little bottles, each 6ml. All you need is a drop or few, so don't be scared you'll run out of it too fast. Careful when applied, it dries quickly.
