I received this line of products at the best in beauty event. A great little package of products which claim vegan and cruelty free. Unfortunately it is made in China though and China requires animal testing on everything it makes or sells there so I am a bit confused. I would not support that. But I tried this anyway and it smells beautiful, not overpowering, with a thick creamy texture, and it definitely left my hair feeling smooth and nourished. There are a couple of ingredients like Abyssinian oil and vitamin E which left my hair feeling quite nourished. Instructions say to leave on washed damp hair for 2-3 minutes but because I err on dry I left it on for probably for five minutes, and I am glad I did.

But I tried this anyway and it smells beautiful, not overpowering, and it definitely removes dirt and oils because my feet needed a good clean and this product did that. There are a couple of ingredients like Abyssinian oil and vitamin E which left my skin feeling quite hydrated still.

This hair dryer is fantastic! The design is compact and easy to hold, it is lighter and quieter than a lot of dryers and it made it easy for me to do all of my thick long hair after washing it. Usually my arm gets so tired but this made it manageable. I love the speed it dried my hair and the cold shot function is great! I always like to finish with cold. My hair felt less stripped of moisture when I finished. It has a couple of attachments included which I haven't used, the diffuser for curly hair I may never use. It has its own internal cleaning function and an extra long cord making it easy to use. It comes with a five year warranty which is amazing too. Great appliance!

This product is made in Australia! Yay! And it is lovely! I would never have thought to buy a scalp scrub but I received this at the best in beauty event. The other amazing thing is the packaging is from 30% recycled plastic waste! I already loved it before I even opened it. When I opened it it smelt amazing! A really mineral ocean smell. It has ingredients like Spirulina, rosemary and marine collagen. I didn't understand the amount "palm sized" so I just applied a fair sized amount in the shower as I planned to wash my hair. I have a lot of thick hair and I probably overdid the amount but I scrubbed in circular motion as per instructions and then washed and conditioned as usual. My scalp definitely felt cleaner and fresher.

I thought this brand was super clean and ethical and I was excited to try it. I think the packaging is a bit excessive though. While it contains a lot of oios the main one being coconut oil it also contains soy which is very scary and unfortunately I didn't read the ingredients before using it assuming it was a conscious brand but that is my mistake. It has a funny typical old school lip balm smell and texture (like the sticks from childhood) and the tint is super light, couldn't actually see it add any colour to my lips but I instantly started burning and swelling up. Now my lips are dry, cracked, I have hives all around my mouth! I should know better, I just wish these brands would not try to maximise profits so much with cheap overused filler ingredients. I was disappointed, I used to like this brand years ago.

I was lucky enough to get this at the best in beauty event. I do use a good cleanser and moisturiser and always use sunscreen but over winter my skin has dehydrated a bit despite the amount of water I drink. I haven't tried this product for long but I have been using it in the morning (instructions say morning and night but that is not always done) after I cleanse, before my moisturiser and sunscreen. It seems to hydrate more than just my moisturiser alone leaving a nice dewy feeling. Then it definitely makes my sunscreen look better! Sunscreen is tricky and I use a lot and I think this serum go ves me a more natural glowing look. I would have to use it longer to see long term effects. But it's really easy to use... It comes with a dropper for dosing the recommended amount (three drops to start). I think that small amount is a testament to how active the ingredients are! It has lactic acid, Hyaluronic acid, and vitamin C. It has a clean smell. And thin texture that glides on. Definitely looking forward to using it for longer to see some more benefits, but the sunscreen thing alone makes it great in my opinion.

I was excited to try this because my skin is quite dry and I would love an overnight treatment that restores moisture. This cream contains a lot of good ingredients like Hyaluronic acid, ceramides, collagen and an interesting one... Urea for exfoliation which I've not heard of before for this purpose. Great price. Australian company. Good packaging for travel or home. But the smell is so strong for me! As soon as I opened the tube and removed the seal I could smell it. But I persisted. The texture is creamy and rich feeling and a little goes a long way. The texture is lovely actually. It smooths on nicely. But I just couldn't get past the smell. I may even have had a bit of a reaction to something in it because I woke up with some little bumps on my cheeks which usually happens with food allergies. It may also just be an adjustment period though. I think it might be an effective product but maybe not for me.

Love this! I love this brand already. But this product is right up my alley. As I have gotten older I find I need to look more hydrated if I use make up otherwise it just makes me look older and doesn't sit right on my skin. I was lucky to get this at the best in beauty event. I chose 01 Pink Petal because I am very fair and these products are very pigmented! A little goes a long way. It looks natural and dewy and lasted all afternoon until I got home. The smell is not overpowering or strong at all and I just loved using it. I even experimented a little on my eyelids to give a dewy look with some colour there. I mean that probably isn't recommended and it didn't wear as well there but I still liked the way it looked.

I received this at the best in beauty event and I guess the thing is they had run out of the colour that I wanted (I am very fair!). Apparently it is multipurpose... Concealer, highlighter, contour... But I don't use contour and the lightest colour they had was number 20. I'm not quite sure how to use it so maybe it's my fault it doesn't work for me. But even as a concealer it was a bit thick and obvious (I don't just mean the colour). I would have liked to try the highlighter one. The packaging is easy to use and the price is very affordable though.

I was so happy to receive this just after winter. I am already pretty dry (no matter how much water I drink) and this cream is so rich it feels very nourishing. I first tried it as I left for work and it was a bit heavy/greasy for daytime use in my opinion, but I decided to keep it next to my bed and use it at night. That is the way to do it. By morning my hands and cuticles felt and looked better. My nails looked better. Plus it had time to soak in while I slept. Next night I used it on my dry elbows which was great by morning and next night I used it on my dry feet. It's great on those too. I think it's especially good if you want to do some cuticle pushing because it softened mine so I could do that easily as well. Great product, just maybe not an all day thing.
