Jelena je prošlog meseca uspela da mi ulovi Maybelline Dr. Rescue stik za negu noktiju i zanoktica i sada sam spremna da sa vama podelim utiske o njemu.
Last month Jelena managed to get me Maybelline Dr. Rescue stick for nail and cuticle care and now I am ready to share my thoughts about it with you.
Maybelline Dr. Rescue SOS Balm Nail + Cuticle je stik za negu noktiju i zanoktica. Promo materijali kažu da sadrži jojobino ulje, zbog čega sam i želela da mu dam šansu, ali na spisku sastojaka ga nema. Sastav ovog balzama nije sjajan. Sadrži dosta emolijensa, ali malo pravih ovlaživača. Emolijensi samo privremeno i prividno zaglade kožu, a ostali sastojci je veoma slabo neguju pa je, uprkos svakodnevnoj upotrebi ove mazalice, meni koža oko noktiju ostajala suva. Jedino što sam primetila pozitivno je da mi se eponihijum malo pokupio i povukao. Pošto je u pitanju stik, lako ga je ciljano naneti na mesta na koja želite, a da se ne umažete i ne zamastite. Posle utrljavanja ostaje jedva primetan, svilenkast sloj na koži. Pošto ima okluzive visoko na listi sastojaka mislim da bi ovo sredstvo moglo da se koristi posle nekog humektanta da zadrži vlagu u koži.
Maybelline Dr. Rescue SOS Balm Nail + Cuticle is a nail and cuticle care stick. Promo materials stated that it contains jojoba oil, which is why I wanted to try it, but can't find it on the actual ingredients list. The ingredients aren't that great. There are many emollients, but very few true moisturizers. Emollients just give temporary smoothness to skin and there aren't enough nourishing substances so, despite daily use, my skin around nails stayed dry. The only positive effect I have noticed is that my eponychium got tighter and less visible. Since this is a stick balm, it is easy to put it on areas you want to without getting all messy and greasy. After massaging it into skin, you will be left with hardly noticeable, silky layer on your skin. Since it has occlusive substances high on the ingredients list I think this product could be used after a humectant in order to keep that moisture in.

Pakovanje podseća na balzam za usne i zgodno je za džep ili tašnu. Orijentacija poklopca i osnove stika mi je kontraintuitivna - širi kraj, za koji bih očekivala da je baza, zapravo je poklopac, a suženi je osnova. Sam proizvod je čvrst, kremast i ne preterano masan. Miris me podseća na slatke mentol žvake. Pakovanje je od 5 grama, a rok trajanja 24 meseca od otvaranja. S obzirom na priličnu nedelotvornost ovog proizvoda, savetovala bih vam da parice koje biste uložile u njega (oko 250 dinara) prištedite i uzmete, recimo, Trind balzam za zanoktice ili Hemel kremu za nokte.
Packaging reminds me of lip balm bullet and it is practical for pocket or purse. Cap and base orientation is a bit counterintuitive to me - the wider part, which I'd expect to be base, is actually the cap, and the tapered end is the base. Product itself is firm, creamy and not greasy. Smell reminds me of sweet peppermint chewing gum. There is 5 grams of product in one bullet. Since this is a relatively useless product, I'd suggest you keep the money you'd spend on it, add a bit more and get Trind cuticle balm or something similar to Hemel for nails.
Šteta za utiske, pakovanjce mi je zanimljivo,
ReplyDeleteDa, šteta što sam proizvod nije delotvorniji.
DeleteIt's interesting, I have no idea what true moisturizers are?
ReplyDeleteBut I for sure have noticed that products containing water or oils only work better for me than balms etc. that either are wax like or vaseline like...
Have you any thought on that..?
True moisturizers are substances that bring moisture, that don't just prevent existing moisture from escaping.
DeleteI like waxy products, but only if they also contain jojoba oil. Otherwise I can only use them after a moisturizer, to stop that moisture from evaporating.
Thanks for your reply - but can you give me examples of true moisturizers?
DeleteYou see I'm trying to figure out why products containing water or oils only work better for me than balms etc. that either are wax like or vaseline like...
Well, the common ones in cosmetics are glycerin, urea, aloe vera, allantoin... If you use wax or petrolatum-based products, make sure they contain some of those and/or jojoba and avocado oils.
DeleteOK, thank you so much Vedrana. So I was mislead in thinking the water could have something to do with it - and thanks for the tips too....
DeleteWell water certainly has everything to do with it, I just forgot to mention it. :D
DeleteAhh, thank you so much, then I was on the right track thinking water was important for my skin :D
DeleteYup. You can't go wrong with water. :)
DeleteŠteta što ti nije delotvoran. Pakovanje je stvarno zgodno, volim stvarčice koje mogu da vucaram sa sobom.
ReplyDeleteI ja ih volim. Ne gine mi kupovina novog Avopleksa u tubi.
DeleteI never used such kind of products, I mean in stick form. I like the idea of the packaging, because those moisturizers that are put in a usual polish bottle are very hard to use after a while, when the bottle start to get empty. But regardless of this, I think this winter (because this is the period when I really need a deep cuticle moisturizer) I am going to choose Trind, that I saw here on your blog!
ReplyDeleteTrind is always a good choice. And they have several different moisturizing products. :D
DeleteI meni je nelogicno sto je osnova uza od poklopca, nikako da se naviknem. Sam stik mi je ok sto se nege tice, ali ni prineti hemel kremi, koju obozavam.
ReplyDeleteA miris me podseca na sladoled citroni :)
Ne sećam se tog sladoleda, pravo da ti kažem. :(
DeleteDrago mi je što nisam jedina kojoj je nešto čudno oko orijentacije pakovanja. :)
Ledeni, frikom od limuna :)
ReplyDeleteSve koje sam volela su ukinuli :(
Ne sećam ga se. Već godinama ne smem da jedem sladoled pa to i nije toliko čudno.
DeleteNisam ga koristila ali sam ga preporucila drugarici koja se koncno izborila sa grickanjem noktiju. Koza oko noktiju joj je bila veoma isusena od grickanja i cupkanja pa joj je bilo zgodno da ovo maze kad gd se seti. Ne znam koliko joj je pomoglo ali znam da je bila zadovoljna dok ga je koristila ovog leta. Moracu da je pitam kakva je sad situacija i da li ga jos uvek koristi.
ReplyDeleteHajde, baš me zanima još neko mišljenje.
Deletesviđa mi se pakiranje, ali nisam odoševljena sastavom... doduše, nisam ovo ni vidjela za kupiti... imam u torbi essence olovku ali doma trošim ulja, što ćešće to bolje ;)
ReplyDeleteJao, meni te Essence olovke, a potrošila sam dve, smrde na užeglo. Uvek.
