S.he Stylezone Nail Oil Pen

Bilo mi je potrebno praktično pakovanje ulja za nokte/zanoktice koje bih mogla da nosim sa sobom na fakultet u zimskim mesecima. U obližnjem DMu sam uzela S.he Stylezone Nail Oil Pen. Ovaj proizvod košta 319 dinara, ali nemam pojma koja je količina u pitanju jer se taj podatak ne može naći ni na pakovanju ni na internetu. Na pakovanju piše da sadrži ulje čajavca, protein i lecitin, ali potpun spisak sastojaka nisam mogla da nađem.

I was in need of a nail/cuticle oil in a convenient packaging so I could carry it with me to uni in winter months. I chose S.he Stylezone Nail Oil Pen at local DM store. This product retails for about 2.5 €, but I have no clue how much product you get because this information is nowhere to be found on the packaging or internet. It says on the packaging that it contains tea tree oil, protein and lecithin, but I couldn't find a complete list of ingredients anywhere.

iznad olovke je vrh koji pripada olovci
the tip above the pen is the one that came with the pen

Pakovanje je prilično zgodno. U pitanju je debeljuškasta olovka čiji poklopac veoma čvrsto naleže na samu olovku, što je dobro. Loša strana je što olovka nikako nije zaštićena i ne postoji način da se ustanovi da li ju je neko već koristio. Vrh olovke je veoma tvrd i mislim da se pre može koristiti za potiskivanje zanoktica i guljenje laka nego za nanošenje ulja. Za razliku od olovke sa odstranjivačem laka, uz ovu olovku se ne dobijaju rezervni vrhovi, mada postoji prostor za njih. Pošto tvrdim vrhom nisam bila zadovoljna, umetnula sam rezervni vrh iz Essence olovke za korekcije laka, koji mi ne odgovara za svrhu za koju je namenjen jer je suviše mekan. Ovako sam mogla lepo da nanesem ulje, a da ne razmišljam da li ću izgrebati nokatnu ploču.

The packaging is very convenient. It is a plump pen with tightly fitted cap, which is good. Downside is that it is not protected in any way so you are unable to know whether someone used it before you. The tip of the pen is very hard and rough and I think it can be used as a cuticle pusher or nail polish scraper rather than applicator for nail oil. Unlike polish corrector pen, this one doesn't come with spare tips, even though there is space for them. Since I was unhappy with the hard tip, I replaced it with a spare tip from Essence nail polish corrector pen, which I didn't like in its original pen because it is too soft. This way I was able to apply oil without worrying if I was going to scratch my nail plate.

Što se samog ulja tiče, ono je veoma jakog mirisa. Čajavac se baš oseća i zbog toga ne mogu ovu olovku da koristim van kuće, što mi je bila namera. Ovo ulje nije mnogo masno, što je dobro ako želite da brzo ponegujete nokte i zanoktice i potom da radite nešto drugo. Veoma se brzo upija - dok stignem do malog prsta, ono što sam nanela na palac se upilo. Nije mi vidljivo negovalo ni nokte i zanoktice. Neću ga ponovo kupiti.

As for the oil itself, it has rather strong smell. The smell of tea tree is so potent that I can't use this oil outside of home, which was my initial idea. This oil isn't very greasy, which is great if you wish to give TLC to your nails and cuticles fast, and then immediately proceed to do something else. It is easily and fast absorbed. By the time I apply it on my pinkie, what I applied on my thumb would already be absorbed. I didn't notice it actually did anything for my nails or cuticles. I wouldn't buy this product again.
