Eveline Art Scenic silicone make-up base

August 19, 2016

I started using primers in my makeup routine 5 years ago and at that time, they were very hard to find in our local drugstores. The first primer that I ever used was Eveline Art Scenic silicone make-up base, which was also the first primer that I could find in my local Kozmo.

Nisam uvijek koristila primere u šminkanju, tek od prije 5 godina i tada ih je bilo jako teško pronaći u drogerijama. Prvi primer, odnosno baza koje sam koristila je bila Eveline Art Scenic silicone make-up base, koja je ujedno bila i jedina u mom lokalnom Kozmu.

It comes in a black and gold cardboard box with a foil which I already threw out. The tube itself is black with gold letters and it has a metal foil on the opening, just like the toothpaste has. I have to say, good job Eveline for all that extra protection on the product, I can make sure that no one opened it and touched it before me.

There are 2 versions of this primer - the one for dry and sensitive skin and the one for normal and combination skin and I tried both of them. They both claim to have long lasting matte effect, but the version for dry skin says it is "smoothing and lifting" and the version for normal to combination skin says it is "smoothing and matting". There are a difference in formula and I suggest you get the one that suits your skin. More about that later.

Dolazi u folijom zaštićenoj kartonskoj zlatno crnoj kutijici koju sam, nažalost bacila, a sama tubica je crna, sa zlatnim slovima te imaju zaštitu na samom otvoru, onu srebrnu foliju kao paste za zube. Moram pohvaliti Eveline jer, kad ovako zaštite proizvod, sigurna sam da ju nitko nije otvarao niti dirao prstima.

Postoje dvije verzije ovog primera i to onaj za suhu i osjetljivu kožu te za normalni i mješovitu kožu. Isprobala sam obje verzije tako da ih mogu usporediti. Iako obje verzije obećavaju dati dugotrajni mat efekt koži, na onoj verziji za suhu kožu također navode da je "smoothing and lifting", dok na onoj verziji za masnu i mješovitu kožu navode da je "smoothing and matting". Razlika sam primijetila i da, bitno je odabrati onu koja paše tvojoj koži. Više o tome u nastavku.

Both primers are silicon based, clear and they have a light scent like... chemicals? No, that sounds disgusting. It is not an awful scent but I can't really define it. It is very light and you can't smell in once you apply it.

The difference between the two versions is not noticable until you actually apply it to the skin. The version for normal the normal to combination skin is a bit liquidy and a bit more greasy so you can see that it leaves a slight sheen to she skin. On the other hand, the version for dry and sensitive skin is thicker consistency, more siliconey under the fingers and leaves the skin completely matte.

Obje baze su na bazi silikona, prozirne, lako ih je dozirati iz tubice i imaju blagi miris na... kemikalije? Ne, to zvuči odbojno. Nije ni ružan niti odbojan miris, ali ga nie mogu definirati. Jako je blag i ne osjeti se na licu.

Razlika između ove dvije verzije se ne primijeti sve dok ju ne razmažeš na lice. Verzija za normalnu i mješovitu kožu je vodenastija i mrvicu masnija pa se taj lagani sjaj vidi na koži. Verzija za suhu i osjetljivu kožu je gušća, osjeti se više silikonska pod prstima i ostavlja kožu u potpunosti matiranom.

Today, the silicone based primers are most common and most loved ones but it is important to combine them with silicone based foundations. The silicone primers are easy to spot - they have the word silicone in the ingredients list (duh) or a dimethicone, cyclopentasiloxane... Or a word that ends with a - cone or - xane.

The main purpose of the silicone primer is to smooth the skin and fill in pores, so the foundation and the rest of the makeup you apply over them look nice and almost photoshopped.

Also, their purpose is to create a barier between the skin and the rest of the makeup, which these two do. They stay on the skin. That is why some of you that have oily skin don't use primers because the makeup can just slip off the skin. BUT, that may or may not be true. Starting with myself, my skin is senstive and combination, during the summer it is more oily and during the winter it is really dry. So, when my skin is dry, I like to use the version for normal and combination skin because it feels lighter on the skin. When my skin is more oily and my pores are more visible, I go for the version for dry and sensitive skin because it is thicker and matte. It may sound like that is wrong based on what is says on the tubes, but I find that this way of using makes my skin and makeup look prettier.

At the first look, any primer, just like these 2, won't do the miracle and make your skin look completley different. They will make the skin look a bit more matte and smooth, but the true effect will be visible when you apply the foundation. It goes on more even, easier and makes the skin and pores look blured and less visible. Besides that, I didn't notice that they make my makeup last any longer that usual.

The price is around 5,5€ (for 30 ml).

Danas su primeri na bazi silikona najčešći i najvoljeniji te je bitno da se kombiniraju sa puderima na bazi silikona. Primere na bazi silikona je lako uočiti - u svom sastavu na prvom ili drugom mjestu imaju riječ silicone (duh) ili dimethicone, cyclopentasiloxane... Potraži riječi koje završavaju na - cone ili - xane.

Zadaća silikonskih primera je zagladiti kožu i popuniti pore, kako bi tekući puder i ostala šminka koju naneseš preko njega izgledao besprijekorno.

Isto tako, cilj im je stvoriti barijeru između kože i ostatka šminke, što ovi primeri i čine. Oni ostaju na koži, ne upijaju se. Zato neki izbjegavaju koristiti ovakve primere ako imaju masnu kožu jer je moguće da šminka, nakon nekog vremena, jednostavno sklizne s lica. ALI, to ne mora biti točno. Počevši od sebe same, koža mi je osjetljiva i mješovita, preko ljeta naginje masnoj, a preko zime je dosta suha. Kada mi je koža suha, više posežem za verzijom za masnu kožu jer imam osjećaj da je lakši na koži. Kada mi je koža masnija, pore su mi izraženije te posežem za onom gušćom, više mat verzijom za suhu kožu. Možda se to ne slaže s onime što Eveline navodi na svojim tubicama, ali meni osobno, ovakav način korištenja najviše paše.

Primer na prvi pogled neće napraviti čudo, koža će biti malo zaglađenija i matirana, te se pravi učinak primijeti tek nakon što naneseš puder. Nakon ove baze, puder na lice sjeda lakše i ravnomjerno, a koža izgleda zagrađena, "blurana", odnosno pore nisu toliko vidljive. Unatoč tome, nisam primijetila da bilo koja od verzija ovog primera produljuje trajanje šminke.

Cijena im je 40,00 - 50,00 kn (za 30 ml), a mogu se pronaći u Kozmo drogerijama.

Moj omiljeni prajmer iz drogerija je Garnier Perfect Blur. Zaista mi je sjajan, sjajan proizvod. Ovaj nisam isprobala-nisam znala ni da postoji. :D Ali sakako hocu, volim silikonske prajmere. Jedan od drazih mi je Sephorin, u nekom "normalnom" cjenovnom rangu. Slazem se da ne mora da znaci da ce sminka da sklizne s lica ako se stavlja silikonski prajmer, ja imam uglavnom masnu kozu tokom godine, katkad normalnu i ne primjecujem da mi sminka "bjezi" s lica. :)

Mislila sam da jako želim ovu verziju za suhu kožu, ali si me na kraju baš zbunila :) Probala sam primere i na bazi vode i na bazi silikona i moram priznati da su mi silikonski mrvicu draži. Nemam nekih potreba po matiranju, eventualno malo na nosu, ali to u principu izbjegavam jer mi se koža odmah isuši i počne ljuskat.
Inače, super usporedba :)
