I got four products from L.O.V to test out. L.O.V is a sister brand to Essence and Catrice and here in Slovenia it was available in Müller but now we can only get it on Licila.si. They only have a few of their products and half of the collection it's not even in stock, so I'm not even sure if all of these products are still available to purchase.
LOVlicious Caring Volume Gloss N.100 Mystic Sand
This is my favourite of the four products. It lives in my purse since I tried it because I like it that much. It is a LOVilicious Caring Volume Gloss and it comes in sleek and elegant tube packaging that contains 6ml of the product but I'm not sure how much it costs since I can't find it anywhere, I think it should be around 6-7€. It comes with a doe foot applicator that is soft and fluffy.
The shade N.100 Mystic Sand is a warm pinkish nude that I think would suit anyone. It is quite pigmented for a gloss so it does show up on the lips. It has a shiny and glossy finish.
The formula is moussey and a bit thicker than what I'm used to. The gloss contains tsubaki oil and vitamin E. It doesn't dry the lips, quite the opposite like the name suggests, it nourishes them. It feels very comfortable on the lips. It lasts long on the lips., even a couple of hours later, there is a thin layer on the lips that keeps them from getting dry.
RoyaLASH Superior Strenght and Volume Lash Primer
RoyaLASH Superior Strenght and Volume Lash Primer comes in a shiny silver tube. You get 9ml of the product for about 10€. The wand is straight and the bristles are the same length through the brush. L.O.V says that the primer should maximize the effect of any mascara, add curl and density and make the lashes up to 3x stronger and more voluminous.
The formula is proper white when it goes on the lashes and I have to be careful not to apply too much because it's harder to apply mascara over it and hide the white, or I'm just clumsy. The effect is immediate, it lengthens the lashes and gives them lots of volume. When I apply the regular mascara on the top (I usually use Maybelline's Lash Sensational) it does look better than without it, especially in terms of volume. I didn't notice my lashes would feel heavier when wearing it and it is easy to remove. I also didn't notice my lashes getting stronger because of the lash primer but I didn't use it so regularly that I could speak of that.
I do like the effect the lash primer gives but I feel it takes me so much longer in the morning just because I try to cover the white that the primer leaves on the lashes and when I have a mascara with a wetter formula you can't just pile on coats because it will stick the lashes together and look messy. I gave it many chances but I will probably just use it on special occasions or when I have more time.
LOVglow Highlighting Drops 020 Sunlight Glow
LOVglow Highlighting Drops comes in a glass gold packaging. You get 9ml of product for around 8€. It comes with a glass pipette that doesn't work, it's totally useless and I have to scrape the product out every time.
020 Sunlight Glow is a gorgeous golden shimmery shade. The shimmer doesn't show up so much on my skin but it leaves a small sheen that looks very natural. It's not a blinding type of highlight for sure.
The formula is liquidy and it blends nicely, almost too nicely. Like I said, this isn't a highlighter that would blind you because it really blends into the skin and leaves a tiny sheen. I didn't like it at first but then I started using it on top of the fixing spray just where I would normally put my highlighter and it looks like a healthy glow and I really started using it almost every time because it makes my skin looks more luminous. You can also mix it with a cream or apply it under the foundation but I haven't tried that yet.
EYEttraction Magnetic Loose Eyeshadow N. 510 METALfusion
EYEttraction Magnetic Loose Eyeshadow comes in a round glass packaging. It contains 0,5g of product for around 7€. Magnetic shadows have been popular for a few years now and if I remember correctly this is my first ever. I always found them interesting but never bought any. They are different because the magnet at the bottom keeps the texture in its original design and creates stripe pattern.
Shade N. 510 METALfusion is absolutely gorgeous, it is taupe with a lot of fine shimmer. The finish is metallic.
The texture of the shadow feels soft and velvety to the touch. Pigmentation is amazing, even if I just touch it with my finger it gives great pay off. When applied to the eyes, it does have some minor fall out, so keep that in mind and maybe do your base makeup at the end. I usually pack it on the lid with a flat brush, it is buildable and it blends fine. I found it interesting that it lasted well on my eyes, it did just fade slightly. I have oily eyelids and it creased just a tiny bit, but that's normal.
The lash primer didn't impress me as much that I would use it regularly so most of the time I can't really be bothered with it. The eyeshadow is nice, the colour is gorgeous, it blends well, the pigmentation is amazing. I wasn't sure about the highlighter at first but now I use it a lot, especially when I want that effortless, natural glowy look. My absolute favourite is the lip gloss. Like I mentioned, I always keep it with me in my bag and I wear it pretty much every day. It lasts longer on my lips than a lip balm and keeps them from getting dry.

Meni je tudi lip gloss fantastičen. Perfekten odtenek in tako dober občutek na ustnicah <3 :).
OdgovoriIzbrišiTudi lash primer še vedno uporabljam. Se pa strinjam, moraš ga dobro prekriti z maskaro. Meni so že tudi ostale bele trepalnice tu in tam :D.
Meni se sicer ni zdelo, da bi se belo toliko videlo, ampak je mama vedno opazila, tako da verjetno drugi tudi so haha :D
