I've always loved trying out new and different products when it comes to skincare and hair care. Yes sometimes I do return to the same products but honestly that happens rarely. Also the needs of my skin are completely different during the warmer and colder months....
Here are the exact skincare products I was using over the last two months. You can also see a short video of how a quick weekend morning pampering looks like for me....
Uvek sam volela da isprobavam nove i raznovrsne proizvode kada su u pitanju nega koze i kose. Da ponekad se vratim istim proizvodima ali iskreno to se retko desava. Takodje i same potrebe moje koze su razlicite tokom toplijih i hladnijih meseci...
U nastavku mozete videti koje sam proizvode za negu koze koristila u poslednja dva meseca. Takodje nacicete i kratak video kako dodatna nega moze izgledati za mene tokom vikenda...

Honestly I prefer skincare over makeup. And I can't stand the layers of makeup on my face. There's nothing prettier than healthy natural skin and fresh glowy face. But I do love a pop of color on the lips- even a small hint of pink/orange/red can instantly brighten up your face!
Over the last months I threw and gave away a lot of my makeup products, and just kept and purchased the ones I truly like (can't stand piles in general)- bye bye wrong muddy shades of lipsticks/foundations/eyeshadows! Anyways here are my current favorites when it comes to pink and orange lipsticks!
Iskreno vise volim proizvode za negu koze nego sminku. I ne mogu da podnesem slojeve sminke na licu. Ne postoji nista lepse od zdrave prirodne koze i svezeg sjaja na licu. Ali podjednako volim i dasak boje na usnama- cak i trunka pink/narandzaste/crvene boje moze u trenutku da osvezi vase lice!
Tokom proteklih nekoliko meseci bacila sam i dala puno mejkap proizvoda, i zadrzala i kupila samo sminku koja mi se zaista dopada (generalno ne podnosim gomilanje)- zbogom pogresne mutne nijanse karmina/pudera/senki za oci! Elem evo mojih trenutnih favorita kada su pink i narandzasti karmini u pitanju!

I love skincare. And skincare products. More than makeup ones. When you have hydrated and nourished skin, you don't need (nor want) so much makeup. When you don't have not even the most expensive makeup won't save the situation (ok it might but just for a few hours, lol).
Last year, while I was pregnant, my approach to skincare inevitably changed. I was always conscious about the skincare products I use and their ingredients, but now I willingly wanted to pay even more attention. Skin (being the largest organ) absorbs everything, toxins can easily reach the blood system, and of course you don't want anything harmful for your baby. So solution was: more natural ingredients. I don't say it is/was 100% natural, but I'm moving in a good direction, and my skin loves it... So without further explanation, let's take a look at morning and evening skincare routines!
Volim negu koze. I proizvode za negu koze. Vise nego sminku. Kad imate hidriranu i negovanu kozu, nije vam potrebno (niti zelite) toliko sminke na licu. Kada nemate cak ni najskuplja sminka ne moze da spasi situaciju (ok moze, ali samo na par sati, haha).
Prosle godine, dok sam bila trudna, moj pristup negi koze se neizbezno promenio. Uvek sam obracala paznju na proizvode koje koristim i njihove sastojke, ali sad sam svojevoljno postala jos svesnija. Koza (kao najveci organ) sve upija, toksini lako dospevaju u krvotok, i naravno da nijedna trudnica ne zeli da naskodi bebi. Tako da je resenje: sto vise prirodnih sastojaka. Ne kazem da je sve bilo/jeste 100% prirodno, ali se pomeram u dobrom pravcu, i moja koza to voli… Bez daljnjeg objasnjenja, hajde da bacimo pogled na moju jutarnju i vecernju negu koze!
MORNING SKINCARE ROUTINE
In the morning I never need harsh cleansing, my skin is pretty much clean from the previous night. So depending from how much is or isn't hydrated I choose between the next two products. If it's fairly hydrated I apply Sephora "micellar cleansing milk" with coconut water, which I already used twice in the past. If it needs something let's say more nourishing in the morning then it's L'Oreal Skin Expert "Fine flowers cleansing cream" with rose and jasmine for dry and sensitive skin (no need to wash this off, just remove it with the cotton pad). Then I rotate Clinique "Turnaround revitalizing treatment oil" and Apivita "Bee radiant age defense illuminating cream", meaning some days I apply first oil then cream, other days first cream then oil. Two reasons why I'm doing this: 1. to make sure I get the best out of these products and their ingredients, 2. not to get bored. There's a lighter version of this Apivita cream but my skin loves "rich texture" one. You can use it as a night cream as well, but I prefer having another one for that purpose. From all skincare products mentioned today, this cream is my favorite, the smell of orange stem cells awakes all your senses! And of course let's not forget slightly blue eye area, proud symbol of every new mom. Apivita "Age defense illuminating eye cream" is doing its best to help, but we all know- only sleep can save this area. So right now, there's no help on the horizon for me, gonna rock these blues for some time, lol...
JUTARNJA NEGA KOZE
Ujutru mi nikad nije potrebno preterano ciscenje, moja koza je prilicno cista od prethodne noci. U zavisnosti od nivoa hidratacije koze, biram neki od sledeca dva proizvoda. Ako jeste hidrirana nanosim Sephora "Micellar cleansing milk" (micelarno mleko za ciscenje) sa kokosovom vodom, koje sam vec dva puta koristila u proslosti. Ako je kozi potrebno nesto hranljivije, onda je tu L'Oreal Skin Expert "Fine flowers cleansing cream" (krema za ciscenje ) sa ruzom i jasminom za suvu i osetljivu kozu (nije potrebno ispiranje, jednostavno ukloniti tuferom). Onda rotiram Clinique "Turnaround revitalizing oil" (revitalizujuce ulje) i Apivita "Bee radiant age defense illuminating cream" (kremu za blistavost protiv starenja), sto znaci da nekih dana prvo nanesem ulje pa kremu a nekih prvo kremu pa ulje. Radim ovo iz dva razloga: 1. kako bih izvukla maksimum iz proizvoda i sastojaka, 2. da mi ne dosadi. Postoji "light" verzija ove Apivita kreme ali moja koza voli "rich texture" varijantu. Moze se koristiti i kao nocna krema, ali ja preferiram da imam drugu kremu za ovu svrhu. Inace od svih danas nabrojanih proizvoda za negu koze, ova krema je moj favorit, miris pomorandze budi sva cula! I naravno da ne zaboravimo pomalo plavo podrucje ispod ociju, ponosan simbol svake nove mame. Apivita "Age defense illuminating eye cream" (krema za oci) radi sve sto je u njenoj moci da pomogne, ali svi znamo- jedini lek je san. Tako da trenutno nema pomoci na horizontu, jos neko vreme cu da promovisem plavetnilo, haha...
In the morning I usually have time to apply all products slowly, to wait for my skin to absorb them properly, since my baby actually sleeps and I wake up before 5am (sometimes 3-4am, just don't ask why). But the situation is a bit different in the evening. "Fast" is the name of the game. It includes: taking shower fast, applying body lotion fast (or not if there isn't time) and applying face skincare products fast. On a brighter side, I still get to actually take a shower....
Ujutru obicno imam vremena da natenane nanesem sve proizvode, sacekam da ih koza upije kako treba, jer moja beba zapravo spava ujutru a ja se budim pre 5h (nekad je to 3-4h ujutru, ne pitajte zasto). Ali situacija je pomalo drugacija uvece. "Na brzinu" je ime igrice. Na brzinu se istusiraj, na brzinu nanesi losion za telo (ili nemoj ako ne stizes), na brzinu nanesi kremu/serum za lice. Ako nista drugo makar uhvatim priliku da se istusiram svaki dan...
EVENING SKINCARE ROUTINE
But let's get back to the subject! Evening skincare routine means different products! It also means double-cleansing, I absolutely love having a clean canvas! First I apply Merumaya "Melting cleansing balm", then wash it off while taking a shower with Diadermine "Washing me softly micellar washgel" with aloe-vera extract and D-Panthenol. If I don't have a makeup on (yes there are days when I'm staying home and actually letting my skin breath!) I just wash my face with Korres "Olympos tea cleansing foaming cream". After taking he shower I use La Roche-Posay "Effaclar micellar water" to make sure there aren't any makeup residues. Then I rotate the next two products, just like in a morning skincare routine. Some nights I first apply Korres "Wild rose vitamin C brightening oil", then Korres "Wild rose brightening & first wrinkles advanced repair sleeping facial night cream", and some days it's vice versa- meaning night cream then brightening oil...
VECERNJA NEGA KOZE
Nego da se mi vratimo na nasu temu! Vecernja rutina nege koze obuhvata druge proizvode. Takodje znaci i duplo tj. temeljno ciscenje lica, jer volim da imam cisto "platno". Prvo nanesem Merumaya "Melting cleansing balm" (balzam za ciscenje koji se topi), te ga sperem dok se tusiram sa Diadermine "Washing me softly micellar washgel" micelarnim gelom za umivanje lica koji sadrzi aloja veru i D-pantenol. Ako nemam sminku na licu (npr. danima kada sam kuci pa pustim kozu da dise), onda samo operem lice sa Korres "Olympos tea cleansing foaming cream" penastom kremom za ciscenje. Nakon sto se istusiram koristim La Roche-Posay "Effaclar micellar water" micelarni losion da bih uklonila i poslednje ostatke sminke ili necistoca. Sledeca dva proizvoda koristim u rotaciji, isto kao sto radim i ujutru. Nekih veceri prvo nanesem Korres "Wild rose vitamin C brightening oil" (ulje za lice sa vitaminom C i divljom ruzom), pa onda Korres "Wild rose brightening & first wrinkles advanced repair sleeping facial night cream" (nocna krema protiv starenja sa divljom ruzom), a nekih veceri obrnuto - prvo krema za lice pa ulje...
Even with all these cute and fancy products, I still get bored, lol! So once per week I use Origins "Bare-faced glow" glow-boosting trio. This total pink set consists from 3 products: "Cleansing makeup removing jelly" with willowherb, "Retexturizing mask" with rose clay and "Matte moisturizer" with willowherb.
Cak i pored ovih medenih i fensi proizvoda, opet mi rutina nekad dosadi, haha. Tako da jednom nedeljno koristim Origins "Bare-faced glow" trio za blistavost. Ovaj pink set sadrzi 3 proizvoda: "Cleansing makeup removing jelly" uljani gel za uklanjanje sminke sa vrbovicom, "Retexturizing mask" masku sa pink glinom i "Matte moisturizer" kremu za lice sa vrbovicom.
These were my late spring to early summer morning and night skincare routines, and I'm finally finishing up all shown products! I say finally 'cause I adore trying out new skincare and beauty products and I always think how to intercorporate different ones into my skincare routines in order to achieve the optimal results! The most important for me is healthy looking, glowy and moisturized skin!
Ovo je bila moja kasno prolecna rutina nege koze, jutarnja i nocna, i konacno zavrsavam sa svim prikazanim proizvodima! Kazem konacno zato sto obozavam da isprobavam nove proizvode za lepotu i negu koze, i uvek razmisljam kako da iskombinujem nove proizvode kako bih postigla optimalne rezultate! Ono sto je najvaznije za mene jeste zdrava, blistava i hidrirana koza!
MORNING SKINCARE ROUTINE
1. I don't need harsh cleansing in the morning, so focus is mostly on refreshing after the long night. Therefore I was using Sephora "Micellar cleansing milk" with coconut water, which smells so nice!
2. Then I was applying L'Oreal "Extraordinary facial oil" for normal skin with 8 essential oils. It's lightweight, and my skin loves it! Btw its smell reminds me of Kiehl's "Mignight concentrate recovery", it might be the lavender's note.
3. The facial oil was a perfect base for the next product: BasicBeauty "Baobab beauty program moisturizing day cream" which contains pro-vitamin B5, extract of soy and baobab fruit pulp. Another plus is UV protection!
JUTARNJA NEGA KOZE
1. Ujutru mi nije potrebno preterano ciscenje, tako da je focus uglavnom na osvezenju nakon duge noci. Zato sam i upotrebljavala Sephora "Micelarno mleko za ciscenje" sa kokosovom vodicom koje sjajno mirise!
2. Onda sam nanosila L'Oreal "Extraordinary facial oil" (ulje za lice) za normalnu kozu sa 8 esencijalnih ulja. Prilicno je lagano, i mojoj kozi se dopada. Inace miris me strasno podseca na Kiehl's "Midnight recovery concentrate", bice da je nota lavande.
3. Ulje za lice je bila savrsena baza za sledeci proizvod: BasicBeauty "Baobab hidrantna dnevna krema" koja sadrzi pro-vitamin B5, ekstrakt soje i baobab voce. Dodatan plus je naravno UV zastita.
NIGHT SKINCARE ROUTINE
1. Nothing without proper cleansing in the evening! My little helper (I just love smaller packaging, so handy!) was Garnier "Micellar oil-infused cleansing water"!
2. After making sure my skin is clean, I was applying Bioten "Multi collagen concentrated antiwrinkle serum" which absorbs really quickly! It contains hyaluronic acid and natural sweet almond oil.
3. While serum was absorbing, I was applying Balea "Q10 eye cream" around my eye area.
4. And last thing was Bioten "Detox skin recharging & anti ageing night cream". Main keywords for this cream are: antioxidant, anti pollution, anti aging and anti fatigue. Sounds awesome, right?
VECERNJA NEGA KOZE
1. Nista bez dobrog ciscenja koze u vecernjim satima! Moj mali pomocnik (mala pakovanja su mi omiljena, bas su prakticna) je Garnier "Dvofazna micelarna voda za ciscenje"!
2. Kada je moja koza bila dovoljno cista, nanosila sam Bioten "Multi kolagen koncentrovani serum protiv bora" koji koza izuzetno brzo upija. Sadrzi hijaluronsku kiselinu i ulje slatkog badema.
3. Dok je koza upijala serum, nanosila sam Balea "Q10 kremu za oci".
4. I poslednja stvar je bila Bioten "Detox nocna krema za lice protiv starenja". Kljucne reci za ovu kremu su: antioksidant, protiv zagadjenja, protiv bora i umora. Divno zvuci, zar ne?
Skincare is super important for me, because it helps me to set up a proper tone, both for the beginning and end of my day. It can give me the necessary boost of energy in the morning, or help me relax in the evening...
Here's how my recent morning skincare routine looked like (I finished all these products, so I'm switching to another ones which I'll share soon). First I was refreshing my face with Sephora's "Coconut water micellar cleansing milk". The coconut smell is so pretty, and milk is super hydrating, I just love it! Then I was spraying ByPhasse "Re-hydrating face mist" which contains chamomile extract ( it can be also used as a setting spray). I was letting the face to absorb it and then I was applying Balea's "Eye cream" with lotus extract and L'Oreal's "Wrinkle expert" collagen face cream...
Nega kože da super važna za mene, zato što mi pomaže da uspostavim poželjan ton za početak ili završetak mog dana. Odnosno, može mi dati neohodnu dozu enegije i vitalnosti ujutru, ili pomoći da se opustim uveče...
Evo kako je moja jutarnja rutina nege kože izgledala do nedavno (završila sam sa svim ovim proizvodima, i već krenula sa drugim, koje ću podeliti uskoro). Dakle prvo sam osvežila lice sa Sephora "Coconut water micellar cleansing milk". Miris kokosa je lep, a mleko je vrlo hidrirajuće, jednostavno sjajan proizvod. Onda sam poprskala lice sa ByPhasse "Re-hydrating face mist" sprejom koji sadrži smirujući ekstrakt kamilice (i koji se može koristiti i kao sprej za fiksiranje šminke). Dok je lice upijalo, nanela sam Balea "Kremu za oči" sa ekstratkom lotosa i L'Oreal "Wrinkle expert" dnevnu kremu sa kolagenom...
And here's one of my evening-pamper-routines. Don't know if you can call it a "routine" because I always change the products I'm using, especially face masks, but one thing is constant- that luxurious feeling when your skin is super nourished, clean and glowy!
Here I started with L’Oreal's "Pure clay" face exfoliant to remove any dead cells. Then I applied thick layer of Avon's "Planet spa chocolate face mask" (yummy), while drinking "Apple & Cinnamon" tea. After removing the mask, I first prepped my skin with "Face oil" which contains vitamins A/E/F, left it to absorb a bit and then applied LR health & beauty "Sleeping mask"...
Below you can find a few exact and some similar skincare products...
A evo kako je jedna od mojih večernjih kućnih spa varijanti izgledala. Ne znam koliko bih ovo mogla nazvati rutinom, zato što uvek menjam proizvode koje koristim, naročito maske za lice, ali jedna stvar je konstantna- luksuzan osećaj kada je vaše lice nahranjeno, čisto i blistavo!
Ovde sam počela sa L’Oreal's "Pure clay" pilingom za lice kako bih uklonila sve mrtve ćelije sa površine kože. Onda sam nanela bogat sloj Avon-ove "Planet spa čokoladne maske za lice" (njam njam), dok sam pijuckala "Jabuka i cimet" čaj. Nakon što sam uklonila masku, prvo sam blago umasirala "Ulje za lice" sa vitaminima A/E/F, ostavila da upije, i nakon toga nanela LR health & beauty "Sleeping mask"...
U nastavku možete pronaći spomenute i slične proizvode za negu kože...
Hands down, this is by far the best face mask I've used. Yes, in my whole life! It's the face mask I put on when I want to give myself a special treatment, especially when I feel a bit down. Plus it's definitely the most amusing one to use! Let me explain...
Bez ikakve nedoumice, ovo je najbolja maska za lice koju sam do sada koristila. Da, tokom čitavog života! To je maska za lice koju stavim kada želim da sebi pružim specijalan tretman, naročito kada se osećam neraspoloženo. Plus definitivno je i najzabavnija za korišćenje! Pojasniću...
Premier Dead Sea "Miracle noir magnetic mask" contains Dead Sea mud and
minerals, and then some vitamins, liposome and oxygen. Every time I use
this mask my skin looks plump, glowy, super soft and soooooo smooth. And
I absolutely adore how easy you remove it!
Premier Dead Sea "Miracle noir magnetic mask"
sadrži blato i minerale iz Mrtvog mora, kao i neke vitamine, lipozome i
kiseonik. Svaki put kada koristim ovu masku moja koža izgleda blistavo, super meko i takoooooo glatko- sve linijice su popunjene! I apsolutno obožavam što se vrlo lako uklanja!
So you put a mask on a clean
face, leave it for 10-15 minutes. Then comes the funny part I was
telling you about: you wrap a black block in a tissue paper and you move
it along the face. That block acts like a real magnet, and it pulls away the
mud mask from the face with such an ease. Afterwards you clean the face
with some cotton and cleansing milk or micellar water. There you have-
fantastic idea and suggestion for a luxurious spa day at home!
"Eye serum" is another Premier Dead Sea product which I used and wrote about here, so check if you're interested...
Dakle stavite masku na očišćeno lice, ostavite je 10-15 minuta. Zatim sledi zabavan deo o kojem sam vam pričala: umotate crni blok u papir (kuhinjski papir ili toalet papir) i povlačite njime po licu. Taj blok se ponaša kao pravi magnet i bukvalno vuče masku od blata sa lica sa neverovatnom lakoćom. Nakon toga očistite lice tuferom i mlekom za čišćenje ili micelarnom vodom. Eto vam jedne fantastične ideje i preporuke za luksuzan spa dan kod kuće!
"Serum za oči" je jos jedan Premier Dead Sea proizvod koji sam koristila i o kojem sam pisala ovde, tako da možete proveriti ako ste zainteresovani...
A few days ago, I shared with you my morning skincare routine. I also mentioned that the evening routine is a little more thorough. In fact, the biggest difference is in the face cleansing: while the morning routine includes one product, the evening includes three! And of course the morning is focused on hydration and evening on regeneration and nutrition. See below all products and steps...
Pre nekoliko dana, podelila sam sa vama jutarnju rutinu nege koze. I spomenula sam da je vecernja rutina malo temeljnija. Zapravo najveca razlika je u ciscenju koze: dok jutarnja ukljucuje jedan proizvod, ova vecernja ukljucuje cak tri! I naravno jutarnja je fokusirana na hidrataciju, a vecernja na regeneraciju i hranljivost. Pogledajte u nastavku sve proizvode i korake...
Step 1: DOUBLE (OR TRIPLE) CLEANSING
This step includes three products. Because a single product is not sufficient to remove makeup (although I don't wear layers of makeup every day). Because I like to see that the cotton pad is clean at the end of the process. And
because a good cleansing creates the perfect base for applying the
following skincare products, otherwise it's useless...
Anyway let's get back to these products. First I massage Sephora "Supreme cleansing oil" onto a dry face, with a special focus on the eye area (it
seems to me that only cleansing oils and balms melt the mascara). Then I wet the face, massage it a bit more and rinse with warm water. Then I apply in circular motions L'Oreal "Fine flowers gel-cream wash" and rinse the face. And finally (although it's already quite clear) with a cotton pad soaked with Diadermine "Micellar water" I remove every last trace of dirt and makeup (this also adds a bit of refreshment).
1. korak: DVOSTRUKO (ILI TROSTRUKO) CISCENJE
Ovaj korak ukljucuje tri proizvoda. Zato sto mi jedan proizvod nije dovoljan da uklonim sminku (iako ne nosim slojeve sminke svaki dan). Zato sto volim da vidim da je tufer od vate cist na kraju procesa. I zato sto se dobrim ciscenjem stvara savrsena podloga za nanosenje sledecih proizvoda za negu koze, u suprotnom je uzaludno...
Elem da se vratimo na ove proizvode. Prvo na suvo lice umasiram Sephora "Supreme cleansing oil" (ulje za ciscenje) i posebno se fokusiram na podrucje ociju i trepavica (cini mi se da uljani proizvodi jedini tope maskaru). Onda pokvasim lice, pa dodatno umasiram i isperem toplom vodom. Onda utrljam kruznim pokretima L'Oreal "Fine flowers gel-cream wash" (tj. gel-kremu za umivanje) pa isperem vodom. I na kraju (iako je vec prilicno cisto) predjem tuferom natopljenim Diadermine "Micelarnom vodom" da uklonim i svaki poslednji trag, ali i da osvezim lice.
Step 2: SERUM
Applying the serum on a cleansed face is a real pleasure. I must admit that Sephora "Super regenerating oil-serum" is one of the best serums I have
ever used, I always see the difference in the morning.
Also, roughly every fourth day instead of this serum I use Sephora "Renew & peel super serum" with glycolic acid. The skin absorbs it immediately, while with the oil-serum I should wait a little before applying the face cream.
2. korak: SERUM
Na ocisceno lice pravo je zadovoljstvo naneti serum. I moram priznati da je Sephora "Super regenerating oil-serum" ("Regenerisuci serum u ulju") jedan od najboljih koji sam do sada koristila, ujutru uvek vidim razliku.
Takodje otprilike svakog cetvrtog dana, umesto ovog seruma nanesem Sephora "Renew & peel super serum" sa glikolnom kiselinom. Koza ga odmah upije, dok sa uljanim treba sacekati malo pre nanosenja kreme za lice.
Step 3: ANTIRID
Unfortunately, soon I'll be separating my ways with the magical bottle (second one btw) of Premier Dead Sea "Eye Serum". Applying only this serum should be a ritual in itself. I wrote more about it here.
Step 4: NIGHT CREAM
So far, the skin absorbed the oil-serum and it's ready for a night cream. I use Garnier "Miracle sleeping cream", although it's near its end too.
3. korak: ANTIRID
Na svu zalost, zavrsavam sa magicnom bocicom (druga po redu) Premier Dead Sea "Eye serum" seruma za oci. Nanosenje samo ovog seruma bi trebalo da bude ritual po sebi. O njemu sam vise pisala ovde.
4. korak: NOCNA KREMA ZA LICE
Do sada je koza vec upila uljani serum pa je lice spremno za nocnu kremu. Koristim Garnier "Miracle sleeping cream", mada je i ona pri kraju.
Step 5: LIP BUTTER
This rounds off my nighttime skincare routine. Lip butter is like "the icing on the cake", especially 'cause this "Lip Butter" from The Body Shop smells on coconut!;)
5. korak: PUTER ZA USNE
Ovime zaokruzujem vecernju rutinu nege koze. Puter za usne je kao "slag na tortu", narocito sto ovaj "Lip butter" iz Body Shop-a mirise na kokos!;)
You see, now is not exactly the brightest period in my life. And usually when you don't feel ok, it is easy to neglect yourself. This is counterproductive, both in the short and in the long run. Therefore
it helps me (as much as it's hard sometimes) to have a skincare routine,
something that I have to do and repeat every day, so I can keep myself "on the good track".
This is my current routine when it comes to the morning skincare. And it's much simpler than the evening/nighttime routine, which I'll also share in one of the next posts...

Vidite, trenutno mi nije bas najsjajniji period u zivotu. I obicno kada se ne osecate ok, vrlo je lako zanemariti sebe. Sto je kontraproduktivno, i na krace i na duze staze. Zato mi pomaze (koliko god da je nekad tesko) da imam rutinu nege koze, nesto sto moram raditi i ponavljati svaki dan, kako bih odrzavala sebe na "dobroj traci".
Ovo je moja trenutna rutina kada je jutarnja nega koze u pitanju. I mnogo je jednostavnija od vecernje rutine, koju cu takodje podeliti u jednom od narednih postova...
Step 1: CLEANSING
Maybe this first step I should call "refreshment" more than the ordinary cleansing. I thoroughly clean my face before bedtime, so it's impossible to accumulate so much dirt 'till the morning. So after splashing the face with water, I apply Sephora "Liquid moisturizing skin concentrate" with cotton pads. This is actually lotion and serum in one, and when applied to a face before the cream, it enhances its moisturizing effect by 25%.

This is actually lotion and serum in one, and when applied to a face before the cream, it enhances its moisturizing effect by 25%.
1. korak: CISCENJE LICA
Mozda bih prvi korak pre trebala nazvati osvezavanje nego klasicno ciscenje lica. S obzirom da temeljno ocistim lice pre spavanja, koza ne stigne da nakupi necistoce do jutra. Tako da nakon umivanja, lepo i lagano nanesem na lice Sephora "Liquid moisturizing skin concentrate" tuferima. Inace ovo je losion i serum u jednom, i kada se nanese na lice pre kreme, pojacava njen hidrirajuci efekat za 25%.
Step 2: EYE CREAM
Until I wait for the lotion to absorb, I move onto the eye cream. Currently I use Clinique "Pep-start eye cream" which I apply in circular motions in order to boost the circulation of the eye area.

2. korak: KREMA ZA OCI
I dok cekam da lice upije losion za ciscenje, ja predjem na kremu za oci. Trenutno koristim Clinique "Pep-start eye cream" koju nanosim kruznim pokretima kako bi se podstakla cirkulacija predela oko ociju.
Step 3: BOOSTER + MOISTURIZER
Usually the third step is the serum and then the fourth is a face cream. But now instead of a serum, I use Clinique "Fresh pressed daily booster" with Vitamin C which should be mixed with the moisturizer, in my case- Clinique "Dramatically different moisturizing cream". A little more about these two products you can read in this post.

3. korak: KONCENTRAT + KREMA
Obicno bi treci korak bio serum pa cetvrti dnevna krema. Ali trenutno umesto seruma, koristim Clinique "Fresh pressed" koncentrat sa vitaminom C koji se mesa sa kremom za lice, u mom slucaju to je Clinique "Dramatically different" hidrantna krema za lice. Malo vise o ova dva proizvoda mozete procitati ovde.
Step 4: LIP BALM
This step I recently added to the skincare routine, because I noticed that my lips really need that extra step, especially if the next thing is applying makeup. These days I use Balea "Lip oil" with the coconut.

4. korak: LABELO ZA USNE
Ovaj korak sam tek nedavno dodala rutini, zato sto sam primetila da je mojim usnama zaista potreban ovaj dodatni korak, narocito ako je sledeca stvar nanosenje sminke. Ovih dana koristim Balea "Ulje za usne" za kokosom.
The summer ended, I came back from the holiday, and now it's time to change
my skincare routine a little bit because autumn days
require a more thorough approach. As I want to make sure my skin is having the best start each day, here are 3 Clinique skincare products that are currently a part of the morning routine!
Leto je
proslo, ja sam se vratila sa odmora, i sad je vreme da malo promenim rutinu
kada je nega koze u pitanju jer jesenji dani zahtevaju temeljniji pristup. U
to ime, evo 3 Clinique proizvoda koja sam pocela da koristim u jutarnjim
casovima kako bih svojoj kozi lica obezbedila dobar start dana!
My skin type is normal with a slight tendency towards dry. Therefore, the best choice is definitely a richer moisturizer. These days I started using Clinique's "Dramatically different" nourishing day cream for very dry skin type. The
truth is that I've also tried the "bestseller" version- "Dramatically
different lotion +" which is packaged in a bottle, but it doesn't keeps my skin
nourished as this one in a jar. Plus it's excellent as a base for makeup.
Moj tip
koze je normalan sa blagom tendencijom ka
suvoj. Zato je najbolji izbor bogatija krema za lice. Ovih dana sam pocela
da koristim Clinique “Dramatically different” hranljivu dnevnu kremu namenjenu
veoma suvom tipu koze. Istina je da sam probala i tecniju “bestseller”
varijantu “Dramatically different lotion +” koja je pakovana u bocici sa pumpicom, ali ona
ne odrzava moju kozu nahranjenom kao ova u teglici. Plus odlicna je i kao
podloga za sminku.
The last couple of years I have some sleeping issues. More precisely, there are periods during the year when I wake up really early, around 5 am and I can't get back to sleep. The
result (along with the fact that I feel like a zombie) is "beautiful" purple-blue color under the eyes, which is not at all appealing, right?! So
I decided to try some eye creams which are intended precisely for this problem, and
the first one that I'm trying is Clinique's "Pep start-eye cream". "Pep-start" contains ingredients that reduce swelling around the eye area, while maintaining the hydration and radiance. It can be used in the morning and evening, but I use it only in the morning, while in the evening I have another eye-cream.
Poslednjih
par godina imam problema sa spavanjem. Preciznije receno postoje periodi u toku
godine kada se budim vrlo rano, oko 5h, i ne mogu ponovo da zaspim. Posledica (pored
toga sto se osecam kao zombi) je “divna” modro plava boja ispod ociju, sto je nimalo
privlacno, zar ne?! Zato sam resila da probam neke kremice za podrucje oko ociju
koje su namenjene upravo tom problemu, a prva koju isprobavam je Clinique “Pep-start
eye cream”. “Pep-start” sadrzi sastojke koji
smanjuju otecenost podrucja oko ociju, ujedno odrzavajuci hidrataciju i blistavost. Moze se koristiti i ujutru i uvece, mada je ja koristim samo
ujutru, dok za vece imam drugi antirid.
Something new from Clinique which I'm really looking forward to try is "Fresh pressed" daily booster with pure 10% vitamin C. Each skincare product that contains
vitamin C boosts the skin's radiance, stimulates the regeneration of
epidermis and evens the tone. "Fresh
pressed" concentrate should be added to a moisturizer, 2 drops of it, and I'm mixing it with the already mentioned "Dramatically different" cream. Usually I use a serum before my moisturizer, but I'll change a little bit the routine for a week. I say one
week because the bottle should be used within this period due to the
potency of vitamin C. By the way, the best results are achieved when the booster is used in combination with Clinique's "Fresh pressed" powder cleanser which is packed in small bags.
Novitet iz
Clinique-a koji se radujem sto isprobavam je “Fresh pressed” koncentrat sa
cistim 10% vitaminom C. Svaki proizvod
koji sadrzi vitamin C daje kozi blistavost, podstice regeneraciju epiderma i
ujednacava ten. “Fresh pressed” koncentrat
se dodaje dnevnoj kremi za lice, i to 2 kapljice, a ja ga mesam sa vec pomenutom
“Dramatically different” kremom. Obicno koristim serum pre kreme, ali cu malo
promeniti rutinu na nedelju dana. Kazem nedelju dana jer bi bocicu trebalo
iskoristiti u tom roku zbog potentnosti vitamina C. Inace najbolji rezultati se
postizu kada se koncentrat koristi u kombinaciji sa Clinique “Fresh pressed” puderom za ciscenje lica koji je pakovan u malim vrecicama.
